It's Wednesday and a Flash in the Pan Play Along


Boom, boom, boom…..ba boom, ba boom……rat-a-tat-tat.

The rhythm played over and over in his head. He couldn’t get it to leave him. It was as if he would spend his life trying to find the rift to go with the beat.

Maybe he’d let the rift go and just do a bongo solo.

Why is she so insistent that the house be fixed instead of simply demolishing it and starting over? Is it fitting that her end came with the end of the house? The word is irrational and this post comes in at 125 of the 150 word limit. Vist M3 for official rules and word list. Visit Redmund Productions to pick up the serious and rememb...
