By Robert Arrington
My name is Bill Norville, and I’m a lawyer. My next birthday will be my 59th, and I’m the managing partner at Melton, Norville, Jennings & Johnson in Martintown, North Carolina.

Citation:http://www.theoi.com/Daimon/Oneiroi.html The young man paused at the top of the stairs that led down into a small park.

Week Forty-Nine: The True North
By Curtis Edmonds
I was sitting at my desk in my cubicle, looking for vintage photos of clowns piling out of clown cars to illustrate the race for Speaker of the House, but I kept getting interrupted. “Congratulations,” one of the new interns said. “Not funny,” I said. “Oh, come on,” the intern said.

By Donald Crankshaw
"Ydrar wants to see you at his office," Heldiss rumbled. Tchel didn’t turn around, his fore eyes remaining focused on the computer screen.
