All of my favorite bands specialized in urban #renewal.

Show me a man who does not understand the concept of #infinity and I’ll show you a man who is arguing for his own limitations.

#vss365

01/03

Always remember that we are one serious #solar flare away from extinction.

“Wow, you have to start work at 7:00 AM?!?”

Not a problem. The warehouse was #tranquil for two hours before many people got there, and I got to leave when it got busy. I didn’t know how good I had it.

She traded on her #curly locks for fame and fortune. However, there was no substance behind her beauty.

Here today, gone later today.

“How can you be so #sanguine about this disaster? All you have left are your #memories.”

“It’s simple. Everything in life is temporary. Even life itself. It is merely the latest challenge laid before me.”

01/07

You have a lot of acquaintences. You have a few good friends. You have fewer people you’re willing to date.

You know it’s serious when you move into a #house together.

The raccoon shows his #perspicacity in entering the dumpster and getting dinner.

Some would call him a thief.

“Get into the car.”

His voice was a robotic monotone, as if he were under #hypnosis.

His pickup lines needed work.

#vss365

01/10

He could not help noticing the #amorous glances coming from the next table. His crippling shyness prevented him from taking action.

That, and that nose…

“Is it love, baby, or is it just #infatuation?”

The producer interrupted. “Too many syllables, Jimi.”

“OK, how about this…playback!”

“‘Is it love baby, or is it just confusion.”

She looked up through the opening of the well, only a #glimmer of light visible.

“Where’s Lassie when you need her,” she thought.

01/13

Most people have fond memories of their mother. My primary memory is me reading her the #comics while she was in a coma from cancer treatments.

You have to accept what you get sometimes.

Rolando always brought a #watermelon spiked with vodka to the picnic. He was always a welcome addition to any gathering.

The ants were happy too.

I awoke to the birds and their morning #serenade. They tell me that the worst of the storm is over.

#vss365

01/16

A quarter to #midnight – the witching hour approaches. My skin begins to crawl. I can feel a wave of fear coming over me.

In my dream, at least – I was in bed at 9:15.

The student went from a parable describing cooperation to accusing his professor of being a Communist.

“That’s some #leap,” said the professor. “Socrates is spinning in his grave.”

The student missed the reference completely.

“Sing it to me, HAL. I’d like to hear it.”

“#Daisy, #Daisy…”

“No, HAL. The other one.”

“Alright, Dave. ‘Who let the dogs out?’”

#vss365

01/19

The #siren sounds in the distance, the ambulance roars down the busy street. Service warriors on another mission of mercy.

They are heroes, but I’m sure they’d be the first to put themselves out of business.

#vss365

01/20

He arrived in town for fall semester, not knowing a soul. After unpacking in his dorm, he walked through the town to see what was there.

An #arcade!

This would be home.

#vss365

01/21

He was a #liar to most But a hero to some His rep was burnt toast Good thing he was numb

#vss365

01/22

Into each one’s life a little #rain must fall.

Always remember that the sun will shine again.

#vss365

01/23

The pundit is never wrong. Everyone else is, at one time or another.

Who is the #devil for today?

#vss365

01/24

It’s not the #fall that kills you – it’s the landing.

#vss365

01/25

The true test of an artist is to perform a #duet with someone who does not share your genre.

When it works, it’s magic.

#vss365

01/26

Most of us who live in the valley look at the #mountain in awe. A journey too far.

Adam had had enough.

“I will surely die a horrible, boring death here. I must go.”

#vss365

01/27

The child focuses on the #cherry. The wise focus on the sundae.

#vss365

01/28

Her voice rang out, a #beacon in the darkness. People naturally followed.

She was only getting water for the day.

#vss365

01/29

You’ve always been taught to head for the #hills in times of trouble. It’s only a delaying tactic.

#vss365

01/30

Anxious? Full of worry? Not sure of yourself?

Remember to #breathe.

Return to the center.

#Starlight has always fascinated me. It’s like looking into history. You cannot say that the heavens we see are what they are – the light getting to us was transmitted at various points up to millions of years ago.

I wonder what’s going on there now…
