I don’t know why I’m thinking about this right now. I’m not one of those guys who needs Fall to be here right now. I don’t like Pumpkin Spice Anything. I do have this memory of trick or treating around the neighbourhood I grew up in. I was with my…
It’s 6:50am on a non descript morning. I’m not even going to bother to tell you what day it was. It could have been any week day. The shrill pulsing E flat note of a back up signal fills the air. The White Bus commeth. My brother and I trudge…
I was walking home from work on a June day. I passed by a house. A mother and her little girl were eating lunch out on their deck. I have a job where I go home for lunch because I’m close enough, that’s not really part of this story. As…
