LOUNGING ON A PILBOT

         He used to live on the back of a pizza box when I found him. We placed the actual pizza in the oven.  It was delicious.  Later on, I cut him loose from the illustration on the back of the box among some of the ingredients. You can see how glad he was that I brought him out to venture into our world.  He looks really happy to me.

I Wanna' Dance With Somebody

These two seem magnetized to one another now. But, I rescued them from two very different places.  I was having a hamburger over at the local Burger King, when I saw this tall figure on a place mat among some hamburger fixin's.  Well, I got out my folding scissors and cut him loose.

Later that evening, I was cutting this little lady out of her lonely place on a container of almond milk.  She had this look of longing on her face and I thought, "longing for what? - You poor thing."  Just then, I thought of the hamburger guy I'd cut loose from his lonely place mat - And - Here they are together! Don't they make a great couple!?
 

Mato Von Hamburg and Cat

These two interesting characters caught my eye as I munched on a delicious Burger King burger and fries and washing it all down with an iced tea.  I know not to treat myself to fast food too often.  But, I also believe in letting go once in a while.  And I was rewarded for .... Hmmm, I guess I was rewarded for balancing my eating habits in a practical way.  Because I found these two weird kind of whimsical characters. Hey! I Love these guys, man!

NOMADS

 A salad, shredded wheat and fish may not seem an appetizing dish.  Separately,  you may visualize, breakfast, lunch and dinner; although they are usually found apart.  Just think how far I had to travel through my imagination, to arrive here, somewhere in this desert.

CYBORG

I first saw this cyborg waiting on line at our local Burger King sometime before the pandemic became a "Thing" and our lives were thrown into a pandemic mess.  I wasn't sure what he/she would be having.  Well, hungry or not, maybe just thirsty, I'm sure this cyborg was going to eat or drink whatever he/she desired. - Looks delicious!   

WE'LL BE BACK

It was a great celebration. Good food, friends, music by cereal musicians.  Everyone had a great time. We hated to leave.  But, we had to go until it would be safe to party freely once again. 

REMINDER

              JUST A REMINDER -  To your left you'll notice "SHORT STORIES."  If you've been looking for a small bite of reading, you may enjoy reading one of my short stories.  I'll be adding more in time.  Short time reading may fit into your schedule right about now. Note that these stories are either my original fictional stories or non-fictional stories, written by me and taken from my own personal experiences. In fact, except for "Heroes In The Night" -  other "taxi stories", such as, "Follow That Car" and "Night Sharks" are stories taken from my own personal life experiences.  I was a NYC cabby driving the night shift throughout the five boroughs of the city for five years, from the sixties into the seventies.
