FIVE SECOND STORIES

 

Slick, the young RedBird enjoyed pushing the mano-mano routine with the squirrels. After grabbing a snack at the feeder while a squirrel fed on the ground, Slick would drop down to the grass directly facing off with the rodent for a solid 3 Mississippies before rocketing upward.

Forever a scout, she was able to fetch the corpse from under the deck. It was a possum. He provided gloves, trash bag and did what gardeners do best: dug the hole.

He drove past his Dad's folk's farm, now just a house with a decaying barn. He was heartened to see that Grandma's kitchen garden was still in use and in fact was being tended by a grown woman and her mother as he drove by. 

The cat's birthday gift to her was leaving a dead chipper under the piano that was discovered when she and her husband returned home after a fun day on the town. Later, during gift giving after supper, his card seemed strange in the circumstance. Two chippers looking through a pair of glasses on the front with the tagline inside: "Hey! You don't look any older". This pun becomes shockingly ironic-yep, that chipper left under the piano won't be looking any older either.

 

Poorly conceived inspirational meme posted on white board at a cat rescue house:

As long as they have 2 ears, 2 eyes, 2 legs, we will do everything we can to care and love them.                                                              

Well, that's great but what about the 4-legged cats? 

 

FutureVision: Amazon seriously embarks on a home delivery via drone program. The bean counters figured replacing human drivers with GPS programmed machines would save the company millions! Subscribers are required to build helio-pads on their property to accomodate larger drones. Noise complaints soon arise from more affluent neighborhoods that have large numbers of subscribers. "Day and Night! I can't get any sleep! The dog just won't shut up. We're both having nervous breakdowns!" was a common refrain from the residents. Finally, wise local officials began offering public referendums asking the people to decide whether or not to allow drone service in their area. The matter eventually went to the courts.
