Micro-Fiction Roundup XLVIII: Paging Dr. Embarrassment to Emergency

December 31, 2011 in Micro-Fiction Roundup

(Wow, not only a winner, but you wrote the whole MFR? Careful, a gal could get used to this kind of treatment -Ed.)

Sorry for the delay in getting back results. I was squeezing in a quick set of 10 on the hack squat. After that some serious bicep curls, some flies, and a little time on the Pec Deck.

 

But before I get in to the results, a quick story about “abs.” This old guy I was treating for back pain (nothing serious–not like the guy who felt his pain with every beat of his heart. Yikes! That was a scary one). This was just simple, mechanical lower back pain. Anyhoo, he’s a guy about 70 years old. During the evaluation process he wanted to show me how hard he’d been working his abs,working his “one pack.”

Wordsmoker Anthropology: What’s Your Handle?

October 20, 2010 in Wordsmoker Anthropology

Online nicknames are a funny evolution. Wordsmokers have some very creative ones. I’ve long been interested in how they came about. (i.e. is there a story about their origin).

I was having a conversation with Chillbear Latrigue on Facebook a few weeks months ago and the topic came up.

Mine is a hybrid of two different thoughts. The acetabulum is a part of what is commonly referred to as the “hip” in our body. It’s the socket into which the ball of the femur fits. Read the rest of this entry →

My Wordsmoker Internship – You’re Fired!

October 27, 2009 in Wordsmoker Publishing

Looking back, I should have been more skeptical, but I was young and naive. It was almost a year ago….

“Wanna make a loyd a dough?” was the greeting in my inbox from a man named “John.” I had never seen the name before, but he signed it VirusWithShoes. Aha! I thought, I know that name.

It’s been about a year, but I now feel comfortable telling my story about my time as a Wordsmoker intern.
