Water. Top Story - May 2021.
It’s raining today. Don’t ask me why, I just want it to continue. I live in Tasmania on two-hundred-acres of virgin bush. The wildlife frolic freely here, no hunters allowed, and even the vermin can make you smile, but the rain, the rain never came when the tanks were empty. It never came when the lake dried up. It never came when my mouth craved its cool wet intrusion. Yes, in Tasmania, the rain never came, but it is here today.

The Ocean’s Dark Truths
My true identity is within these four. Dedicated to the life of the oceans; the Pacific, the Atlantic, the Indian, and... the Arctic. We are one body yet have been divided by land by a natural instinct of what the world decided for itself. Now due to the progression of how deep the oceans limits are... well we all remain carefree and slightly careless. I’m here to say that I can always feel the waves rush when the waters ache for relief. The jealousy of being pure when our friends the lakes, rivers, and ponds are full of pollution. The waves are the waters way of acting up and it’s beautiful but I believe that human beings detest the matter behind the oceans dark truths.

Where's Your Toe?. Top Story - May 2021.
Shopping for Shoes If there is one thing I absolutely, positively, 100% can’t stand to do, it’s buy new shoes. I don’t know why, but the thought of walking into a Target and heading for the shoe section makes my heartbeat rise and my palms sweaty. I must have had some kind of bad experience as a kid which I’ve since blocked out of my memory. Probably waiting endlessly for my picky older brother to decide on a pair that he liked. When I do buy new shoes these days, which is never more often than once a year, I grab the first pair that is 9 ½ and buy it. I definitely do not try them on. My mom’s standing over my shoulder in my mind’s eye: “Try these on Eric. Try this pair. Oh, how about this pair? Test it, Eric. Walk around a bit. No, farther than that. Where’s your toe? Is that your toe? Are you sure? Where’s your toe?”

Mammals seen in British coastal waters
The relatively small islands of Great Britain can boast a coastline that stretches for more than 10,000 miles due to all its “ins and outs” and the huge number of even smaller outlying islands.
