I think about this every time s mini bike passes me while almost taking out a side mirror or drive circles around me or passes me to drive a circle around me while almost hitting a side mirror.

My Mini Bike Fantasy
You Know What?
I want the next White House Press Secretary to be someone from my high school class who still crimps their hair forty years later, has their prom photo for their profile pic and changes him while while fielding questions and talks about how most of our history teachers were all communists.
If the future is being written like it's Mad Libs, let's at least keep it interesting.

Not Soon Enough
Heading home soon to prepare for Stone Soup Poetry tonight.
Timothy Gager is our special feature.
Can't wait to get his new book.
I hope you're with us in the virtual crowd tonight.
Gutsy
Ending on a wilder note than what we started with thanks to poet Dan Provost and artist Ira Joel Haber. We appreciate you all reading Oddball Magazine this Wednesday. Come back for more later!
Cruising
Poet Paul Dickey and photographer Glenn Bowie drive into our first Wednesday slot.

Leaving the Table
A very fitting poem for the fall season courtesy of Lee Varon in this week's Lyrical Somerville. Read it now at The Somerville Times.
Ha!
Never saw this sticker done up to look like a "I Voted" sticker. Let's hope voting in November doesn't feel like that kind of movement.
Fitting
Found in Kennebunk over the weekend. Definitely captures the country's mood post Nobel Peace Prize announcement.
