Last Rides: The Compilation Album
A couple of years back, as I sat at my desk having another existential episode with one of Murilee’s Finds loaded up on my monitor.
Junkyards have been something that have always fascinated me from an archaeological standpoint, even as a young lad. Many are more than just discarded automobiles. Often, you’re looking at the story of somebody’s life frozen in time, a bug in the amber.
I gazed at that mundane ’77 Plymouth, and then tossed out an intentionally absurd, yet profound, comment into cyberspace — sort of an internet version of “Hold my beer, and watch this.” Nobody really noticed, so I subsequently polished my [s]sickness[/s] “craft” until people did.
This satirical drivel became an amusing device for laughs for me, but alas, the sunset has come to my column here.
The latest tale happens to be not counting entire stories lost to internet anomalies, . In the beginning, my flash-fiction tales from the crypt would pop up in the comment section. If I was lucky and hit the post button within a few hours after the article dropped, a few people would actually read it. It also makes going back to find them rather difficult. So, before I roll the odometer over with my final act, here are the direct links to the complete Crab Collection.

Thanks for the stories and the compilation. I'll read them all again.
Your stories have always been one of my bright spots on this site. Thanks for the great reading. As for which were my favorites, the longer the story, the better for me. Always amazed by the obscure details.
