Lend Me Your Ear

I was just a kid when the Army sent me to Vietnam. A lot of things happened and I just couldn’t tell you why. One of them was that I had this necklace with ears strung on it. I was at a bar there one night and a Marine walked up to me and got […]

Mixed Signals

This guy never meant to do this, I know. But there were these big glass mugs from one of the local places. Really heavy. Well, he threw this mug and it hit this other guy in the head. It did some real damage. I got called in to donate blood for this case because of […]

They’re pretty good for distances of roughly one desk, but things start getting fuzzy once you get to measurements greater than a couch. It wasn’t the best choice to go grocery shopping, but I […]

Karma

This is a hand me down story. I couldn’t remember who told it to me originally, so I had to track down the source. I got to ask a bunch of my friends and get the same response each time: “Wait. Through a manatee?” “Yes, through a manatee,” she said when I finally figured out […]

Ghost Caused the Most

I volunteer at a Civil War historical site. Most of the time I wear a period piece outfit and play like one of the original residents of the house I give tours at. On this particular day, I just wasn’t feeling like it. Thank goodness I didn’t dress up that day. On the first tour […]
