One of my birthday presents was the recently released 2-disc set of Led Zeppelin concert performances on DVD. It rocks. Now I need some weed and sex to make the concert experience complete.
Apologies to those bored by my earlier rambles. Here are some modified versions of the Drabbles I posted for this week's
open_on_sunday challenge - themed around Episode Title Names.
----------------------------------------------------------------------
Title: Remarkable
Characters: Sam Finn
Spoilers: BtVS 6.15, “As You Were” , undetermined future
Disclaimer: Property of Mutant Enemy
Theme: Goodbye, Iowa
- - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - -
Arlington cemetery is surprisingly cold for late March. Across the Potomac, she can just make out the Cherry Blossom.
The turnout is small and the eulogy tasteful. The final notes of a bugle sound, as she waits for soldiers and mourners to depart.
To those who walk past and observe, there will be nothing remarkable about his tombstone. Riley Finn, by most accounts, was a most unremarkable of remarkable men. Perhaps, she thinks, he would find that fitting.
Alone, she sheds a tear for her husband and lays Wild Prairie Roses on the damp, green grass. And whispers “Goodbye, Iowa.”
A.N.: The Wilid Prairie Rose is Iowa’s official state flower.

Title: She’s Got Next
Characters: Original Character
Spoilers: BtVS 7.22, “Chosen”
Disclaimer: Property of Mutant Enemy
Theme: Superstar
- - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - -
They speak of empowering women to reach their full potential. They speak of how you can finally be strong.
But you'd chosen your heroes long before Buffy Summers came along. Cut class to watch Annika tee off at the Colonial. Think the Williams’ sisters are the coolest girls on earth. Always really wanted to be Chamique.
Now, you attend some freaky occult High School in Cleveland. You’re training to be a slayer. But you don’t forget to practice the skills that really matter.
Bron-Bron got ninety million from Nike. What kind of a shoe deal will the next superstar get?
A.N.: Some girls watch a lot of ESPN.
---------------------------------------------------------------
Note: Last month, I listed my picks for this year's College Football Bowl games. A quick glance reveals a 14-16 record, which places me fifth behind the Polish Cajun, Chalk Picks, Coin-Flipping and Wiggles the Monkey. Mock away.
