I have a piece over at Piker Press this week. I was looking for something different in tone and I got it, by jing. I intentionally didn’t over-edit the piece, so it’s a little rough, but it works OK.
Muddled Ramblings and Half-Baked Ideas
Words and pictures and stuff
You want to spice up that car? Want to add a little squirrel-ness to it?

I am pretty sure I want to marry you, Jerry, but I need to see some recent photos to be sure.
No, you don’t. But if you did, you could find some in the classic episode The Deterioriation of Jerry.
Any chance you could get the Piker folks to edit a bit and spell Abilene right?
Otherwise, that was a great read.
Kind of reminds me of that one time, a long, long, long time ago…
Abilene or Abelene. I looked at that and wondered if I should change it, but he spelled it the same way throughout, which could have meant it was a fictitious place. Drop me a line if you want it changed, Jer.
Kansas or Texas? Either way, Carol Anne wouldn’t want to live away from the sight of mountains, so correct spelling is a matter of pedagogy and not personal interest in the place.
I am now armed with my own mapy. Be afraid. Very slightly, marginally afraid. Just another silly cizinka, Pat
Guys telling stories in bars often misspell places. My spelling adds to the realism of the overall piece.
I see. I see your future career. You will meet an interesting person in a bar. Not on a stret, but in a bar. He will have intersting stories to tell, but he will have indulged in drink and his Czeck is not the best. You will be rewarded for understanding him…
