Damn. Two corkers.
Aren't they something. They're like butterflies, or little pieces of wrapping paper blowing around.

It really doesn't matter. It's just an opinion. Don't worry about it. Not worth the hassle.

I adore these drabbles, all of them. There are so many good ones that I don't know where to start in my praise of them.

A dress should be tight enough to show you're a woman but loose enough to flee from zombies. — Ginger
Who is behind the camera, looking at these saucy girls, aching to become women? Who is gazing at Emily, checkered skirts "accidently" hiked up to show a glimpse of undergarment? Mary's schoolgirl braids, milky skin and forthright eyes, and tomboy Ann, with her poker-straight posture and clenched jaw?
And why does the camera linger on uncertain Isabelle, the timid one, the only one too shy to put the cigarette (forbidden to good girls, which they were) between her lips?
Mark her. Mark Isabelle.
It's the last day of her life.

Oooh, Erin. That made me shiver.

One of the few remaining photos of Zosia, Lady of the Wingéd Messengers, and her consort Tanek. Zosia's claim that she was sent from her ancestral forest home to help foster better communication between humans and the more enlightened 'Creatures of the Air' was at first met with doubt and raised eyebrows; however, after the Grand Pigeon Tour of 1927, where thousands of birds followed Zosia and Tanek across Europe, even hardened skeptics were at a loss for another explanation.
Zosia died in 1933. For three weeks following her death, the sound of birds was heard at near-deafening volumes in forests across the globe. Tanek, after a mourning period of seven years, resumed his travels. The last known sighting of Tanek is from 1974, where he was seen in London, again surrounded by pigeons. According to the witness, he looked as if he had not aged since the 1927 photo.

If I only had a brain...
Nice. Isn't she mysterious?

Oh, Erin. That was amazing.
I love the Jilli drabbles.

A rare candid photo of celebrated stage magician Framton Ferdinad Fostron and his two assistants, Elspeth and Adelaide. Framton Ferdinad Fostron was most famous for never speaking a word; all communication was carried out by his writing notes on dove-grey paper with peacock blue ink. He would then hand the note to one of his assistants; while the recipent of the note silently looked at it, the other assistant would recite what it said, even though she never looked at the note at any time before or after her recitation.
There is no record of Elspeth or Adelaide ever talking directly to each other, though, by all accounts, they were close friends. The wherabouts of Framton Ferdinad Fostron, Adelaide, and Elspeth are unknown at this time.
