Earth Day

Every Spring frogs rule my neighborhood.

The Indictment

Good evening.  Welcome to the Situation Room.  I’m Cindy Rella, standing in for Wolf Blitzer.  We have breaking news just in, here on CNN.

The Big Bad Wolf has been indicted on multiple counts by the Fantasy County grand jury in Georgia. 

Puppet Show

This is a puppet show with extremely low production values and marginal puppeteers. It takes place in a bar.  Not a dive bar, not a fancy bar.  Just a bar.

Luke is sitting with his girlfriend, Bathsheba.  The bartender, Elmer, is washing beer glasses.

Ancestry

Stop reading this right now.

Stand up and take a bow.  Jump up and down with your hands over your head like Rocky on the steps of the Philadelphia Museum of Art.  Break your arm patting yourself on your back. 

You are a miracle.

The Three Norns

On the day Niles first opened the workroom door, the three Norns cast his fate.

The Barn

To Niles the one hundred and forty year old barn was a corner of heaven.

Jon

Jon, a tough old bird from Iceland, woke up at 5:30 every morning without the benefit of an alarm clock.  

Cabin Fever

The ceiling started talking to him in September.

The Tractor

I am a tractor, but I’ve seen things.

Niles

He was conceived in an ice fishing shack on Riley’s Bay.
