Pro:
Running a Riding Mower for the first time, which runs like the large, violent and retarded cousin of the Segway
Con:
SURROUNDED. BY. DEAD. PEOPLE.
Pro:
Relaxing atmosphere, beautiful marble and granite sculptures all around
Con:
Beautiful marble and granite sculptures mark DEAD PEOPLE, who have the SAME LAST NAMES AS MY FRIENDS.
Pro:
Good exercise using the weed whacker, and the riding mower is very relaxing
Con:
Forgetting your sunscreen, so not only do you burn, a cloud of mosquitoes swarms your face.
Also
DEAD PEOPLE ALL AROUND!!! GOD DAMNIT DEAD PEOPLE EVERYWHERE!!!
Result:
I signed up to work in the parks, not the cemetery, and I made that choice for a very good reason. Next week I'll be posting a new fictional short story based on what the readers vote for. Leave a comment and tell me what you want to see. My ideas are a new Zap Warner story, the first installment of Django, the Thief, and my story version of Portal. Feel free to pitch your own idea and I'll pick before next Tuesday

How about the incredibly far-fetched adventures, discoveries, and tribulations of the North Korean Death Squads?
ReplyDeleteHow about a series of interviews or conversations with your new 'co-workers'? -The inanimate ones engaged in subterranean slumber? You could talk with the Civil War soldier, the bank president, and the hot, teenage chick who died of the 1918 influenza epidemic...
ReplyDeleteI think you should write something that does what would happen if you did work at a cemeraty. Think about that could go anywhere.
ReplyDeleteAnyways I finally got back to reading your blog, and I must say I am impressed. I think you should look into working on short stories because this stuff could one day be sitting on a bookself in the store.
