No matter the town car driver’s admonishing, you step inside a spray painted silver limo

The man said two sentences to me.  The first was in response to my question, “How much?”
“$25″
The second was what this story is about.
A couple months ago at  4:43 AM (approximate time) I was talking to a proper driver of a proper town car from a proper hired service that was waiting to go to [...]

Revelations #1 by Gerald (I wish I had written this, but it exists nowhere online and we need it, it’s art – If you wrote & directed this animated short, please contact me)

Dear Gerald,
Life is not life a box of chocolates.  It’s a box of glamorous jewels.  There’s tranquil topaz, torrid red rubies, green with jealousy jade and sexy black onyx.  But your jewels are made of sugar glass stuff they use in the movies to make the breakable beer bottles and windows.   Then you get really [...]

There’s a mouse in the kitchen or A note to my dear landlord.

Whatever, I am buried in something fun. 
But wait.
Earlier we walked down a very endless flight of artisan steps.  He said, “You [...]

Hell yeah.  We had stickers that said “Military Pack”, but our handshake was this really difficult thing that ended in two hands flapping like wings where the body was where the hands joined.  It was like secret society stuff.  When you joined, you were “loved” or “hugged in”… seriously.
