by David LaPlantz ·

The unseen, yet clearly here (and there), nuclear radiation quilt that blankets our Earth is like the gift that keeps on giving…….

Do we really want to be wrapped in radiation? There’s not enough aluminum foil to protect everyone! Let’s leave the glowing to the nocturnal beetles, better known as fireflies.

Ascending the Knowledge Stairway

by David LaPlantz ·

David ascending the “Stairs of Knowledge,” which would eventually lead him to the Real “West.” Too bad about the weapon, though…

The consumption had to stop and this was a perfect time to do so.

And so it was, the bottle interrupted because of a casual glance out the window, viewing the winter landscape. Can it be that easy?
