Today’s subject is not a normal subject. But what is a normal subject? Anyone could make the case that any of my topics are either normal or abnormal, depending on their point of view. However, I like to think that I don’t write abnormal stories. Abnormal stories are warped and strange. They are twisted and devious with a blend of subterfuge and mystery. There might even be elements of horror and supernatural thrown in just to heighten the suspense. I don’t do any of that bullshit. I could refer you to some excellent authors who do. I’m just not one of them. Now I might spin a few twists into my story, but that’s not the same as having a twisted story. A twisted story has to come from a twisted mind. And my mind is pretty straight. If you don’t believe me, just ask me. So when I say today’s subject is not a normal subject, I do not mean that it is abnormal. I simply mean that it is out of the ordinary. In other words, it is not a story that you would expect to see on my blog. So why am I writing it? That is the question. I have often wondered that myself. Oh wait, I couldn’t possibly have wondered that often because I have only written this post just now. Hmmm… I’ll have to think about that for a minute. Anyway, the reason that I am writing this post is quite simple. I needed to write a post. But that’s not the reason. The real reason is that I am reducing the posting frequency to my blog to twice a week. There is a reason for this. No. The reason is not because. The reason is that I wrote a book that centers around this blog and was my initial purpose for starting this blog. I am in the process of preparing to publish that book. I have to do some intensive editing to prepare the book for publishing. Once it is ready for release, I will make an announcement on this blog. Thank you for reading my blogs and for your understanding and patience. WM

The ramen incident: I have decided to remain anonymous to protect my identity from the foolishness. last night, I became hungry and decided to make some ramen. I removed the various packets from the bowl, added the flavor and vegetables, then put the bowl in the microwave. After about a minute or two, I realized something was wrong. A terrible burning smell had filled my kitchen. I opened the door to my microwave and…low and behold…I had neglected to add water. There was some smoke coming from the bowl. Not wanting to waste the ramen, I went to the sink and added water, which filled the room in acrid smoke for several seconds. I then returned the bowl to the microwave and cooked it for two more minutes before attempting to eat it. Well….It went okay for a little while, until I discovered a globule of blackened noodles which had turned into some sort of strange crystalline substance yet seen in nature by humankind. I had a change of heart.
