Who Stole My Mountains?

Dramatic changes to be sure, Pat. I love your interpretation.

That's funny!

What's sad is in many states the tops of the mountains are disappeared because of mountain top removal for coal mining!

Fascinating idea of a way to select the truck for your book. I'll store this idea for future use. Thanks.

Wow!

The power of the pen can be mighty. Have your pen make the fog go away.

I meant disappearing not disappeared. My brain hasn't caught up with my fingers today.

Disappearing trucks and mountains? It sounds ominous. You didn't buy that pen from a dusty little emporium, or curiosity shop by any chance? Run by a creepy, wizened old man?

Obviously, they're seasonal mountains. They'll be back in the fall.

Question: Did you really write a book sitting in a parking lot?

WOW, like totally awesome. I have an idea for a new story, a new means of exercising the power of your pen. Your main character is a cowboy named Robert who finds himself girl-less and job-less in a non-empathetic world. He goes to bed tonight and wakes up tomorrow morning and there's a near-thin-as-a-rail blue-eyed blonde with a curvaceous body sitting behind the wheel of a two-tone (Black & gray) lamborghinie in Robert's driveway. As Robert appears from his current abode, a tent, this blonde Jezebel rolls down the window and seductively whispers, "my sweet cowboy, I've searched for you all 28 years of my life, do you like my ride? I will sign it over to you and all you need to do is tell me you're going to love me the rest of your days...."

Well, pat, go on, get writing.

Robert, I'll do my best. And no, I didn't write the book in the parking lot. I wrote this article late last night, and apparently I didn't proof it. I should have started it by saying something like: When I used to go to the grocery store during the year I wrote More Deaths Than One . . .

You know I was going to quip, based on this article's title, where you went for breast reduction. But that's sooooooo below me. lol

For your next trick maybe you can make all of the hatred in the world disappear.

Ditto what Marge said. Very interesting article.

Very good article!

Sounds like that Dean Koontz novel. Better be Better be careful what you write. Lol.

Go Marge I'll agree with that too.

Oh, how I laughed at Beaker's comment.

I can relate to this -- years ago in another town, I was driving down the same hill to work that I drove down every day when I saw to my momentary shock an actual silver orb floating in the sky ahead in the distance.  It took me several seconds of "what the hell"-ing to realize that a low-lying fog had merely rendered invisible the "legs" to the town's water tower.
