Rix Quinn’s Minute Story: Hitting singles in baseball

It's baseball season, so there's nothing like a sports story. This one's about a kid named Danny. Danny began playing baseball at age eight, and watched every game he could find on TV. He always wanted to hit home runs, but he wasn't particularly strong. When he was 11, he asked his coach how to hit better. "Danny," the kindly coach said, "You're a good place hitter. You can hit the ball where you want it to go. Don't worry […]

Rix Quinn’s Minute Story: House sale

My friend Buddy unloaded his home last week. It’s been on the market so long they put mood lighting on the For Sale sign. The house was built during the Great Depression, and that’s how visitors describe it. To call it a “dump” gives garbage a bad name. The yard’s green...but it’s weeds. Buddy says if he can mow it, it can grow there. That may explain what happened to the missing earthworms. The kitchen needs lots of work. Not […]

Rix Quinn’s Minute Story: Class mates

The old guy ahead of me in the grocery check-out looked about two coughing spells away from the Promised Land. I didn't notice him until he tried to pay with a credit card, and the clerk told him it expired in 1997. Then, he noticed me. "Hey, buddy," he smiled, "how ya doin'? Remember me from high school?" "Sure," I lied, "but I don't remember what class you taught." "Nah," he replied, "I'm Ray, and I sat behind you in […]
