Demon Squirrel Interview #1

Posted in Humor, Mammals, Stories on August 9th, 2007 by PM

A “campfire” story taken from writing.com

[Introduction] Greetings!

note: Hooves of Fire! = author, WRITEING = Demon Squirrel

I, Hooves, have risked life and limb to travel to the deepest recesses of evil for this exclusive (and I hope Emmy winning) interview with the one and only Demon Squirrel. Due to the extreme evil of his countenance, I cannot look directly at him. He will be behind a curtain, speaking through the voice of Ercole who has kindly volunteered to channel the horrible demon’s answers to all of us.

This campfire will consist of me asking the questions (one at a time) and His Evilness answering through the Writeing of ercole, keeping his responses to 5 sentences or less if possible.

And now for the first question as soon as the campfire invitation is accepted. Read the rest of this entry »

It looked like a river.

Posted in Stories on June 5th, 2007 by petey

It looked like a river, and in fact it was a river for all intents and purposes. That is, to God it could be a trickle, a gutter stream, or a sewer rapid; and assuredly he could merely step across it with no problem. But Rat Shipley would have to find that certain kind of bamboo, which Haus always says works great for rafts. He would have to whittle away at these rods with a skinning knife - the only remotely sharp object on him - and then he would have to lash these poles together with hair or shoelaces or maybe these long reeds that seem to be growing on the banks here.

And hoping for the best, Rat Shipley must then shove off, for he can not go back. Forward is the only direction despite not being able to see the other side. Forward across this river…or what appears to be a river.

For all he knows it could be an ocean.
