Robin was driving her children to the new day care center in town. The children were addicted to the large purple velociraptor like a bird overtaken by the pheromones of his mate. They demanded that they be allowed to attend, they had to, they were born to. The name on the sign seemed rather odd but there were children out playing on the jungle gym's and swingsets in the side yard. The sun shined brightly yet seemed to cast eery shadows over the parking lot and building. Once parked, the children scrambled from their car seats, flinging open the sliding door on the "soccer mom" van. They scampered off into the building ahead of their mother. Screams of delight instantly turned to screams of terror upon entering the new facility. Seemed it lived up to it's name. In the back corner of the room was a solid concrete wall with shackles and chains, 2 children were there, bound in the chains, crying for their mommy's when all of a sudden, the lights dimmed and the scream of a hellish beast could be heard....all the teachers were chanting in a foreign tongue, and then ................it appeared!!!!!!! - by John Westenhaver I never trusted that damned purple thing from the moment we brought it home from a garage sale. It always seemed to be leering at the outher stuffed toys. I begged my older brother to keep them seperated. Then one afternoon we came home and were confronted with this scene of carnage in our garage. It is true: "In the End there can be only One. . . "
I never minded the taxpayer-subsidized purple lizard all that much. ("I love you/You love me/I am funded federally....") The Teletubbies, on the other hand . . . KILL THEM WITH FIRE!
I'm an emergency room physician since 1982. Currently I do what is called "locum tenens," working at various locations for weeks to months at a time. States I've worked include New Hampshire, Ohio, Indiana, Arizona, Wyoming, South Dakota, and Montana.
My Father got me started with adjustable cameras in the early 1960's. My gear includes basically three systems - Pentax Spotmatic (mid-late 1960's); Nikon FE2/F3HP (mid-1980's); and Leica M2/M4 with late Canon LTM optics and one Voigtlander lens. My first serious digital was a Panasonic LUMIX DMC LX2 - a startlingly versatile little instrument. I've recently picked up a Canon 5D body - on which I'll use my Asahi Super Takumar and Auto Vivitar lenses until I can afford some more contemporary optics. There are an additional fifteen or so 35mm and 120 roll cameras.
