King Lenny surveyed his court. He liked what he saw. The court was lined with his loyal followers, all of them hanging on his every word. "The king is the thing today, Jeoffrey," King Lenny said to his servant. Jeoffrey chuckled and said, "Today and every day, sire." King Lenny laughed and took off his gloves.

The birds and squirrels gathered before me in the park. They were hungry and recognized me as a source of food. Unfortunately for them I had eaten my whole lunch earlier and didn't have any bread crusts or leftover pretzels to give them. I shrugged and said, "Sorry guys. I've got nothing for you," but that only seemed to make them angry. Suddenly, the squirrels all started coming together. They were standing on top of each other and forming a giant meta-squirrel. I started to run.

Igor swung the scythe. Stalks of grain fell at his feet. He felt a pain in his shoulder but he continued working. After he cleared a whole row, he walked the row length, picking up the fallen grain stalks and throwing them in a sack. His shoulder was really bothering him. "Igor, come on in and eat!" a voice cried. He recognized the voice as his wife. "I'll be right there, Sylvia!" he shouted back. He had no intentions of stopping now though. He decided that he would slice and bag another row.

Kevin stared at the spaceship like a thirsty man would look at a glass of water. He knew that if he could just get behind the control panel, he would be home. Eleanor noticed Kevin staring at the ship. She saw the look in his eye and inferred his thoughts. "It would be nice, wouldn't it?" Eleanor asked Kevin. He nodded, slightly embarrassed to be caught daydreaming. Eleanor noticed this too. "Too bad you'd be dead before you could get within 100 feet of it," warned Eleanor.

The fly is struggling. You saw him land on the flypaper, now you are watching him die. You almost feel bad for him. With each struggle he gets stuck to a greater degree. Annoying as he was, this is an awful way to die. You sip your iced tea. It was not a sweet as you had hoped. You add another teaspoon of sugar and stir it again. "This will be sweet enough," you think. Another fly lands on the flypaper.

The farmhand scratched his head and said, "So you haven't seen a giant chicken anywhere around here?" I looked into his eyes to see if he was putting me on. He seemed sincere. "How big is he?" I asked. The farmhand pointed at a large SUV and said, "Oh, he's about yea big." Now I looked at him with disbelief and said, "You're telling me that you have a chicken as big as a truck, he's out of control, and he's somewhere around here?" The farmhand nodded his head stupidly. And that's when I heard the loudest clucking noise that I had ever heard.

The moon was full. A chill settled in the woods. I was sharpening a stake by the fire. Mario was setting a fishing line around our camp. He strung the line with empty cans so that if anyone, or anything, crept up on us, we'd have a chance to act. Once the line was set, Mario joined me by the fire. "It's too short," he said. "Excuse me?" I responded. "Your stake is too short. You're not going to be able to pierce the rib cage with such a short stake. You need more leverage."

Sheila rubbed her fingers through Buttercup's mane. Sheila loved Buttercup. Buttercup had been Sheila's steed for five years now, and the two felt bonded beyond words.
