Early morning fog

Ever hear the lyrics to The Theme from MAS*H?

“Through early morning fog I see
Visions of the things to be
The pains that are withheld for me
I realize, and then I see…”

THIS is why I avoid early morning fog. And early mornings in general. You never know when there’s going to be fog. I don’t want to take any chances.

Snowing to beat the band

Local news reporting that to the north, “it’s snowing to beat the band.”

See, this is why I never joined the band. Too much worrying; too much looking over your shoulder, just waiting for someone to come along and start hitting you for no good reason at all.

It’s like being a gunslinger, except with musical instruments and a musical score.

I am now tempted to write a story about a hard-boiled detective who used to be a musician. He’s got scores to settle.
