Skunk

In many ways a dog can be your best friend, they are there for us in our worst times and our best times, they will be our biggest supporter, and they’ll always forgive you for getting angry at them when they made a mistake.

A Mess of Bad Puppies From The Teacher’s Funeral, by Richard Peck It was close and airless in the church before the female mourners got their cardboard fans going. Wasps droned in the window wells as people shuffled in, filling the pews. Beneath a spray of entirely white glads, the lid on the pine coffin stood open before us. It was without question Miss Myrt Arbuckle laid out within. She had the longest nose in North America. It stood up against the yawning lid, shiny and sharp with a flaring…

Sylvia Plath was born in Boston, Massachusetts in 1932 and died in London in 1963. Her father was a german immigrant and her mother was American born. Sylvia Plath was generally considered one of the most powerful American writers to have emerged since the 1940’s. But she didn’t start out that successful.…

He's coming back home one day from the grocery store when he hears a meow and when he looks down there's a tiny fluffy white kitten looking at him from between the bushes. He snorts and thinks that Harry would love that innuendo as he kneels down on the floor. The kitten takes a few steps back but keeps looking at him. "Are you hungry?" He asks with a baby voice. "I only have bread and milk with me now, I'm not sure I should give this to you." Meow. "Right." He looks around and sees no…

present at all seasons of the year.

I looked up from the campfire at his suddenly fear-stricken face. I shook my head. “Bears? Are you kidding me?

Ever wonder why we spend a third of our entire lives being seemingly unproductive and motionless? Studies and proposed theories suggest that there are reasons for this, other than simply being lazy and stagnant. Within our 24-hour days, several psychologists strongly recommend that 8 of those hours be devoted to sleep, and unfortunately, many people today compromise those hours to carry out other tasks, which can deal great harm to their bodies. Two popular theories that stand in the science…
