The exercise:

Write about: a victimless crime.

And just like that, we're done with August for the year. Hard for me to believe we're welcoming the beginning of September already.

There's a big forest fire burning to the south of us and we could see the smoke coming our way this afternoon. Blue sky overhead, wall of grey sky approaching from the south. Hopefully the wind disperses some of that and we're not totally inundated tomorrow.

Speaking of tomorrow, back to work I go...

Mine:

Go on, take the money -
Who will ever know?
Ain't nobody watching,
From above or below.

What about your conscience?
Man, who even has those anymore?
This is your chance! You've been knocked down,
Now it's time to get up off the floor!

Just think of all your bills: paid.
All those creditors: gone.
Your life's been out of tune, man,
It's time to sing a sweeter song.

Go on, take the money,
Who will ever know?
You've been rained on for so long,
Let this be your rainbow...
