9 Pages Part 3 of 3: “Aw,” said Mr. Sockforahead. “Why’d you close the door? I was gonna peek in real quick and give him a fright. Might’ve even got him to pee his pants. And as for the ‘help me’ nonsense, a fat lot of help he’ll be now that we’ve softened him up.”…
7 Pages Part 3 of 3: Sally drove her Volkswagen Golf through what had now become a blizzard. Snow fell relentlessly, covering the streets and making visibility downright invisible.

Judas Priest—“Sin After Sin” MoTW—“Humanoids From the Deep” Out of all the news from last week, only two items somehow becameembedded in my mind.

There’s a new woman hanging around our Weirdcrap offices and I don’t like her one bit. I don’t know why I don’t like her, and I don’t really care why since I am such a great judge of people. All I know is that she’s trouble and I’m going to do everything in my power…
