“But I told you mom, I don’t want to play.” Sarah yelled, trying to get out of the kitchen door.

“You’re a Kimball!  And Kimball’s play football!” Stephanie yelled at her daughter.  “Now throw me that ball.”

“We are in the house!” Sarah replied, nervously holding the football in her hands.  “You can’t play ball in the house.”

“My house.  My rules.  Now throw it to me.”

“No!” Sarah yelled, “This is silly!”

Animals!
By Grant Baciocco

Charlotte screamed as the rhinoceros’ horn came splintering through the front door.  She leapt away from it and bounded up the hallway staircase.

At the door the rhino let out a bellow as he wrenched his horn free from the door and backed up for another charge.

Charlotte reached the top of the stairs as the door was hit again.  She turned into her bedroom and slammed the door shut, attempting to catch her breath as she heard the rhino enter the house.  She turned to find her room filled with gorillas eyeing the bag of peanuts she was carrying.

Burlingame, March 5. A woman told police she had been feeding wild animals and now felt in jeopardy while doing so.

Pants
By Grant Baciocco

“Four thousand dollars?” Samantha asked raising an eyebrow.

“Yes.” Roger replied.  “Four thousand dollars.”

“How is that even possible?”

“It’s all about the microfibers.”

“Microfibers?”

“Yes.” Roger replied, holding them up.  “These tiny microfibers are state of the art.  They promote sweating and, in turn, weight loss.”

“Couldn’t you just put on an extra pair of sweat pants?”

“That’s the point!” said Roger, slamming his fist down on the table.  “Because of these microfibers, you don’t have to!”

“But $4000?!” Samantha yelled.

“It’s all about the microfibers!” Roger screamed.  “Didn’t you hear me say they are state of the art!”

All Ten Of Them
By Grant Baciocco

Edgar squinted his eyes and looked at his friends who stood in a semi-circle around him.  A smile crept across his face.  “How…how…” his words were slurred due to the amount of alcohol he and the rest of his friends had consumed.  “How many of us are there?”

“You’d better count.” Glenn replied.  His words just as slurred.

Edgar silently went around the circle, counting.  “There’s…there’s nine.”

“You didn’t count you.” Glenn replied, laughing.

“Okay, okay, let’s all count together.” Edgar ordered.

Slowly, and carefully, all ten of them began counting at the top of their lungs.

100 block of Anza Boulevard, 1:15 a.m. Thursday Intoxicated men were reported to be yelling — all 10 of them.
