    Welcome To The Whispering Inkwell Alli May

    Alli May came crashing into our lives one blustery winter day. Literally. The way she tells it, she miscalculated the time of her arrival for Woodstock and got thrown off course. Somehow this apparently led to her being tossed, not so gently, through time and space, only to get spat out onto our doorstep on…

    Between The Chapters

    Dear Entertainer, My dear Mel has been working tirelessly to manage the household and her Virtual Web Estate. (Website) It really is the most curious modern hobby. Curating words and images together and just sending them out into the universe like that. It seems impossible that these words of hers can just take flight into…

    Squirrel Mail…You Know, Like Snail Mail… But Much Faster

    Today started out kind of rough. When I woke up this morning, I knew instantly that the price of going to the reunion had come due. My head was just killing me. Basically it felt like my head was trying to explode. I took some stuff, sat in my chair, and put an ice pack…

    Whatever Happens, ‘It Ain’t My Fault

    So, it turns out that the neighbors are not dead or vampires after all, lol. We passed by their house on our way back and forth to Grandma’s house the other day. When we were passing by, everyone was anxiously looking out the windows to see if there was a new ‘signs of life’ as…

    Frank’s Investigative Skills At Work & The Untamed Force

    You know how I am always saying that all of my grey hairs have names in microfiche on them? The name being dependent on which person is responsible for me having earned one of course.  I was just sitting here trying to put my hair in a ponytail and one of my gray hairs fell…

    Mabel’s Mountain Escape

    Dear Entertainer, You would not believe the craziness that has been going on here in your absence.

    Moo’s Takeover & Other Disasters

    Hey kid, Boy, you missed another wild one today. Your Ma had to go pick something up at The Poultry Queen’s house and some of us decided that we would go along for moral support. This included all of the dogs. The Gentleman went along, not for moral support, but rather so he could drive.…
