Have You Ever …EVER?

Have you ever, EVER…?

Literally…or figuratively

Been a couch potato …or really any vegetable

Brought home the bacon …and do you typically fry it or roast it?

Compared apples to oranges …and occasionally on weekends, “grapefruit”

Been in hot water …This would be OUTSIDE of a jacuzzi

Buttered someone up …I’m curious: “Salted” or “Unsalted”

Been packed like a sardine

Bought a lemon …I once paid a dollar for a lemon (WTF??!!)

Been under the weather …and if so, what altitude exactly was this at?

Chased a rainbow

Found something that occurred “Once in a blue moon”

Gotten into deep waters

Poured oil on troubled waters And, umm…conversly-Poured gasoline on a fire

One point per “yes”, except number 12 (-1 )

About Zaslow Crane

Zaslow Crane wrote his first Science fiction story when he was 11 This was after an uncle had given him a Charmin case full of sci fi paperbacks- all the old masters: A.E.Van Vogt, Cordwainer Smith, Heinlen, Bradbury, and dozens more. After that, he never looked back. Zaslow Crane has contributed to numerous magazines and newspapers over many years, and has been a contributing editor for a national magazine. He has been published a couple hundred times for non fiction. Regarding fiction, he writes primarily SciFi and was one of the creative talents behind Smoke and Mirrors, a parsec nominated podcast that "re-imagined" the Twilight Zone and, which ran for 2 1/2 years. He has written over two hundred short stories, 7 or 8 novellas and two novels, one of which "explains" a great many advancements in human technology. He likes mindless sort of work, because it frees that other part of his brain to work on story ideas, so if you see him, say, digging a ditch, you'll know that he’s really writing. He lives in a tiny house on a hill in Central California. His home overlooks the ocean - IF you're willing to stand on tip toes and crane your neck. Just a bit.
