Thanks & Welcome

To my new friend and follower, Francis Lee. Francis is an Irishman living in England and writes the blog, The Angry Lurker.

Francis, I promise to always reply to your comments. At times it takes a few hours, even days when life intrudes, but trust me, I'll not forget you.

Again, thank you and welcome. You are now among friends.

Stephen

Tick, Tick, Said the Clock

It's a sad state of affairs when a man finds himself sorting ammunition at two in the morning. Just a few minutes ago I stood from where I'd been bent over an old ammo box, my hands filthy black. I moaned and glanced at the clock and asked it why in the name of all that's holy could I not sleep, perchance to dream.

It only replied, tick, tick, and tick.

Even the owls remain silent.
