I once went to a political fundraiser where the headliner was the great comic Barry Crimmins. He did an unforgettable long-form set about the difference between liberals & the Right.
Why do liberals so often devolve into circular firing squads while R's grin & vote in a bloc?
Trauma.

“As a stunt he once did a radio shift for 24 hours straight, and found himself near delirium at the end, playing requests and dedications from literary characters. He thought it was a record, but later learned he was #outspoken by a guy in Australia who broadcasted solo for 55 hours.” #Dribble

“He began to wonder if he gulped down a piece of chicken bone with that last bite. He hoped he was #mistaken , but at an all-day team building exercise with layoffs on the line, he pictured that tasty shard of destruction slowly tearing his insides apart while he gamely smiled at the boss.” #Dribble

“Side by side, the cars arrived at the red light. Two old Land Rover Defenders, the choice of tv detectives from the Northumberland and City Police to the Honoré station on the island of Saint Marie. The mystery fans traded #secret nods of recognition, and parted ways at the next light.” #Dribble

“The long #power failure brought out a lantern, a glass of scotch, and a book of unsolved sudoku puzzles from the last blackout. With the radio tuned to local news and nothing else to distract him, he blew through those pages like Joey Chestnut devouring hot dogs on the Fourth of July.” #Dribble

“He planned his shopping route to be early enough to get first pick and allow him to hit all the local stores before the late-comers straggled in. For a patient sweet tooth, a year’s worth of candies and #chocolate at bargain prices were there for the taking the morning after Halloween.” #Dribble

The songwriter of 1969’s “Compared To What” was Gene McDaniels, who had hits singing “A Hundred Pounds of Clay” and “Tower of Strength” in the early ‘60s, and later wrote “Feel Like Makin’ Love,” a number 1 charting song for Roberta Flack in 1974.

I had forgotten Weird Al’s parody came out prior to the revival of the show with Alex Trebek. Props to Art Fleming and Don Pardo!

“The doctor said ‘take one tablet every 24 hours,’ and he believed he did so an hour ago. But the label said a side effect was memory impairment, so then he wasn’t sure if he had. He decided to count the pills that were left. His attention began to #drift after the sixth recount.” #Dribble

Ken Venet @tstar920She walks alone down Avenue D in haunted twilight. Dark descends on thieves like vampires; in #Anticipation of blood. Candy darling in an alley, trading favors for a fix, and something to eat. Loud guitars twang from a cramped, seedy bar. She unwraps a chocolate bar and dreams of home. #Dribble10:56 AM - May 06, 2024

“Full of #anticipation for the film, theaters were packed. But post-production was rushed to meet a December release, and it showed. The studio made enough money to green light a sequel. 22 years later, a ‘Director’s Cut’ version of the film was more favorably received by critics.” #Dribble

She couldn't decide & didn't know how to tell either one. She loved them both, in different ways. But it went on far too long as she traveled for work back & forth between Boulder & Santa Fe. In the end, she should've known it would #Unravel .... and she'd be left alone.

Going to start simple - I won’t always do just 1 word prompts. A one spout story, keep it clean as per TOS, and include both hashtags.
Today’s #Dribble word prompt is #Unravel

It was the title of a 1951 short story by Ray Bradbury describing the life of a pilot, away from home for stretches of time, and how his wife and child lived with his absence. In this case, space was his calling, and the story an inspiration for a pair of songwriters.
