Big Orange Starts the Death Match

Image
5…. 4…. Big Orange Rising      The  seconds, minutes, and hours, without sun, darted in a flash for the entire clan.  The rocky sand from the South China Sea dotted Sheppy's black fur from nose to tail.  The homes near Sheppy protected with brick, and sometimes concrete. Most of the protectors had serviced their inhabitants for nearly a century. The sand failed to attach to the yellow spot under Sheppy's stomach.  His ribs stuck out far enough to nearly mix the yellow and white.  White seeds of wisdom plotted Sheppy's feeder's  head. The time without sun crashed into another morning for his gentle soul topped in white. Twenty three stairs above it all, the moisture from his bristles stuck to its cotton square. Outside, the light turned off, and turned back on. Neither signaled his bristles' nemesis to take a pause.        Big Orange blasted her disruptions for all to see, but each with a different impact.   1/4 of the clan took a direct hit. Po

Welcome to my home, Taiwan's farming village of Liuying! Liuying!   Ole White & Silver The light gave me a greet. The bugs stayed away I popped through my white and silver protector Ole' White & Silver made her morning's toil. Good job! Ole' White & Silver Hard at Toil God I Suck at Art!! I toed the 1 cm down to rock #1. I made #2.  Six packs of twelve percent peer, and bags of peanut cookies, make a man do funny things in the winter time. Your kid can kick my ass in an art contest Oh.. Just Right She wore her dress just right. She made for her machine with four. Yesterday, I made for my machine from two. My heart and my legs powered my two wheel machine. I imagined she went to my old world of dress up days. Hawaiian shirt day presented the highlight of creativity. She may embrace the Hawaiian shirt.  Now, I earn money to play Paper Scissor Stone with second graders

Spain Vs. Taiwan (My Time) (Spain) ---    I could smell the cheese. I could taste the bread. (Taiwan) – Buzzing scooters kept me awake. (Taiwan)-- The society stared at their phone. (Spain) -- Parents supervised kids with a mug of wine. (Spain) -- Spanish filled my head. My feet shuffled forward and back, I screamed, “I will never leave!!” (Spain) -- I rank the atmosphere in Spain a 10. (Taiwan) -- Rain scares most. Teachers beat individualism, personality, and opinions that differ, out of more. (Taiwan)--  I rank the atmosphere in Taiwan at a 1 (on a lively day) (Spain & Taiwan)   They both nearly killed me, in their own way. I left Spain before the Honeymoon period ended. I stayed in Taiwan long enough to drive a car.  I Want To Sing Pusong Bato (Filipino Song) Rum emptied my glass. Rum repeated this process seven times.   The outside heat kept melting my ice. Conversation elevated my mood.  Riding ‘top down’ made

How to Work Your Way into the Shit House as a Small Business Owner

Congratulations Small Business Owner!  Everyone offers advice on how to succeed.   Nobody ever offers advice on how to bomb. Follow my suggestions. I guarantee a swift journey right to the shit house. ***The tips come from my own six week career as a freelance writer. I think I set every record possible for terribleness. *** #1 Cut off All Ties- Cancel your cell phone plan. Stop talking to people. Allow no way of clients possibly contacting you. Bye- Bye Friends & Family #2 Keep Drinking -  Expect low funds. Drink more.  Set career highs for your worst hang over ever. Clobber your record high vomit days from university. Bottoms Up Bitches! #3 Go to Bed Later - You need to go to bed one hour later than normal. I highly recommend developing a porn addiction. Great resting spot  #4  Check Facebook Excessively - Walk into the room. Turn your computer on. Check all FB notifications. See who liked your picture from seven years ag

MLB Game Day ( Padres Vs. Phillies 1985) Twizzlers hid under the ice. Larue (my dad) verified nobody forgot the peanuts Larue (my dad) celebrated with a Moosehead Lager. We didn’t get lost. We executed the start. Breakdancing & Veteran’s Stadium - DON’T GET LOST *** Different Strokes  (a 1980's tv program)  portrayed a rich guy in New York City that adopted two African American kids, Arnold & Willis. *** *  The MLB Philadelphia Phillies played at Veteran’s Stadium. * *** Breakdancing- crazy street dancing popular in America *** The MLB team, the Philadelphia Phillies, plays at Veteran’s Stadium, in Philadelphia, PA. A wrong turn while driving to Veteran's Stadium places one in the center of the ghetto.  I know not all African American people live in the ghetto. (38 year old brain) I didn’t know much about African American people in 1985 (7 year old brain).   We had one African American family in our whole to
