Squid was deeply moved with the warmth of the Zortixians, their openness and concern with the struggles of the mutant community on Earth. Could it be that they realized if they were to visit Earth they too would be considered as mutants? Squid was popular not only because of his Montenez heritage but because ofContinue reading ““Mutantism on the March ” :Chapter 112 Redbeard and Zorollia Start to Wobble”

“My Life as a Golf Marshall” : Final Final Last Thoughts! Golf as Ballet
I just recalled a few wonderful experiences I had on the golf course that I think only a Marshall can relate to. It struck me early in the summer halfway into my shift.

NoContinue reading ““My Life as a Golf Marshall” : Final Final Last Thoughts! Golf as Ballet”

“My Life as a Golf Marshall” : Stories from the Edge : He Died with Two Birdies and a Smile

On the 17th hole Dad smacked a decent drive that hit a sprinkler head from the irrigation system. It took an aggressive forward trajectory resulting in aContinue reading ““My Life as a Golf Marshall” : Stories from the Edge : He Died with Two Birdies and a Smile”
