Chuck	We are here to laugh at the odds and live our lives so well that Death will tremble to take us.
Aaron James Satoshi Cole	The Ocean's Bed I walked upon the pavement 'til I observed a passing stone roll 'gainst a gutter, as if to be alone. This stone had no specific colour or hue that I could see to make it 'specially distinguished by its society. Perhaps it was not as rigid-- a bit rounder than the rest. Yet I could presume no reason to regard it any less. It was neither sharp nor jaded but rather smooth on top. So I quickly cupped my hand and drew the fellow up. He seemed to quake and quiver as he looked beneath a tree; I saw the others looking up with utmost enmity. Thus, I hid him in my pocket and took him lands away where others would not find him or curse him where he lay. I placed him by an inlet where the ocean came to play. She drifted out to greet him and offered him to stay. He agreed as did the others, and rolled to the water's edge, where he tucked himself beneath her sheet and sank quietly to bed.
