Falling For Adventure

Out of breath, I reached the top of Tarzan's Tree House. As I climbed the last two feet, I stepped on my shoe lace, lost balance and went over the side. This was the last shot I took just before falling to the bushes below. Is it bad that all I thought of on the way down was, hmmm Bengal Barbecue sounds good for lunch?

Another One Bites The Dust

The trains keep running away, it's situated next to a big Mexican Restaurant, it's called "Big Thunder" and yet we don't get a lot of lightning here and the Mayor wants to know why everyone keeps dying off in this stinking town. It's a ... oops, pardon me ... mystery.

View on black. Just do it.

Hello. Hello? HELLO???

When I saw the challenge for Leaning, I knew what I wanted to shoot. There is this very cool garden area at the end of Main Street USA, just to the left of Sleeping Beauty's Castle. I wound my way through the crowds to the perfect spot. I aimed my camera, pushed the shutter button, seven shots went off, I smiled then frowned. The pictures looked like they were gonna come out good but ... I don't think the tree is actually leaning. I think it's more asleep. I poked it with a stick a couple of times, nothing. I yelled a bit, nothing. I reached over and splashed cold water from the pond on its face, Nothing. Stupid tree. I'm posting it anyway, those people in the Our Daily Challenge group will NEVER know that it's not actually leaning, that it's just asleep.

The Dark Alley Of Tomorrow

This is the crime scene where I got mugged. I told the Disney Police everything. I was walking along this dark alley below the Castle when this Five Year old girl jumped out at me yelling "BOO!" Well of course I threw up my hands, screamed and dropped my cotton candy which she snatched from the air before it hit the ground. I pointed my finger at her, shaking, You give me that back you ... she kicked me in the shin before I could say the bad word that was coming from my lips. The Disney Police found me an hour later, rolling around on the ground, holding my shin, crying Owy Owy Owy! I

Howlin' For You

Howlin' For You by hbmike2000

Thick traffic blocks my way as I make the long trip to work. I sigh deeply, depressed. A familiar beats begins on the radio. It's my favorite. I start to smile, then the words begins. I sing along, a smile on my face now. I start to dance in my seat, forgetting the horrible traffic.

Seven accident and two injuries later, it's still my favorite song.

Don't Fence Me In

Oh, give me land, lots of land, under starry skies above
Don't fence me in
Let me ride thru the wide-open country that I love
Don't fence me in
Let me be by myself in the evening breeze
Listen to the murmur of the cottonwood trees
Send me off forever, but I ask you please
Don't fence me in
Don't fence me in

- Cole Porter

I've been singing this dang song to this fence all day long. It's not listening.

Don't Sneeze, Don't Sneeze, Don't Sneeze

I slowly walked up to the intimidating Lunar New Year Dragon. I ran all the questions I had to ask through my head, hoping not to forget any. My first assignment as a reporter, it had to be perfect. As I approached it, I realised it had a cold. My feet moved a little slower, my shoulders dropped a little lower as I realized a horrible thought. Gawd, I hope he doesn't sneeze. He'd sizzle whats left of my hair right off my head. My stomach started dancing to Chubby Checkers The Twist as I got closer, the words "Don't Sneeze" crowding out the questions in my head I had for him. Closer. Closer. I was right up to him now. Don't sneeze, don't sneeze, don't sneeze. Looking down at me, he grimaced, head drawing back, mouth opening, I could see the beginnings of a spark. I farted. He sneezed. I screamed. There was an explosion.

In other news today, Traffic was backed up for miles on the Autopia freeway in downtown tomorrowland. The child driving was found to be over twice the legal limit of juice. Disney Police quickly arrested the six year old and threw him in the dungeon of the Pirates of the Caribbean.
