The Daily Grind Table of Contents      Sounds like we might be running across the first stirrings of a plot here...

Sweeter'n Sugar, Pg 2

The Daily Grind Table of Contents      The title this time around comes from a popular song of the early 20th century: here's a link to my favorite version performed by the Mills Brothers back in 1934. It doesn't really have anything to do with houseflies, but I'm led to understand that flies enjoy sugar. So there's that!

Vermin, Pg 42

The Daily Grind Table of Contents      I think it's the Desiderata that says, "You are a fluke of the universe. You have no right to be here. Whether you can hear it or not, the universe is laughing behind your back." Or maybe that's something else that says that...

The Daily Grind Table of Contents      You are what you eat, as they say...

Vermin, Pg 40

The Daily Grind Table of Contents      Two more weeks of Ochre, then we'll be focusing on a character who's been a part of Daily Grind for longer than most of the principle cast. I refer, of course, to everyone's favorite housefly private eye, Anasturnia Gana Belea, who'll be narrating a story entitled "Sweeter'n Sugar" starting here October 20th. Reserve your seats today!

The Terebinth Story Archive      Thanks to our narrators for moving things along. I suppose they'll want me to actually incude them in a story of their own now...

Vermin, Pg 36

The Daily Grind Table of Contents      Since this is, of course, a 5-act play we're doing here, this page will represent the end of Act IV. Please watch your step.

The Daily Grind Table of Contents      After a heaping helping of free will, I find my head filling with things as well. Unfortunately, most of them are nitrogen bubbles...
