Jerry Chavez hardly ever said a word. A damn shame because he knew so many good ones. Lascivious, licentious, and lethargic all laid latent. He even invented some new ones that would have been a boon to society:

Escube:  to get ready for the day at work or a night out on the town by  shitting, showering, and shaving

(hygienically speaking the best order to perform them in).

Potanic: any item possessing the potency of Titanic proportions.

Yet, Jerry's laconic manner cursed the air with the language of a mundane nature: shit, fuck, double-fuck, cock, bitch, hell, that 'c' word, Jesus, and sugar. All paltry words and a pantry one too.

Jerry would spend most of his time creating the most wonderful worlds. Staying alive it might seem only to live in his daydreams. That was until the gift bag came.

Jerry, returning to his cheap motel-style apartment complex from an appointment with a doctor, found a lavishly adorned gift bag on his welcome mat. “Is it my birthday,” he thought. Jerry looked at his watch. “No, much too cold to be my birthday.” Truly placing a temperature gauge on a watch is a brilliant idea, you are able to see how cold it is outside which helps you to realize if you have dressed appropriately. Or in this case it helped Jerry realize that this present was too early or much too late for his July birthday. Without a reason for the gift bag coming to mind Jerry still took it into his somnolently decorated apartment. Jerry was never one to look a gift horse in the mouth, mainly because the giving of horses as presents seemed to have fallen out of fashion. At least that is in the circles Jerry ran in. Although the only circles Jerry ran in was down at the high school. But this was not a horse track. And obviously it's not the right track for getting a horse either. But I digress, actually looking back on how long that tangent was it would be more appropriate to say I trigressed or even quadgressed.

Jerry in the meantime had grabbed himself a beer and sat down on his couch with the gift bag. He said something to himself which I intend was “Go for it you pussy.” and then he opened the gift bag. The first thing he found was what seemed to be a normal everyday yellow, Ticonderoga, number 2 pencil. Next was a brown leather bound journal, with which one would assume was to be written in with the pencil. The card followed. Jerry opened it with no haste, and read only this:

What you write with this Pencil into this Journal will come

true in that you will be able to fully participate in it so long

as you pop one of those Purple Pills.

Jerry daunted but determined checked the back of the card. Exactly as he thought, it was not a Hallmark. He now turned his attention to the dilemma of the pills. That is, where are they? The card's removal had emptied the gift bag. But as Jerry went to grab the bag again he heard the distinct sound of pills rattling in a bottle. And there they were. The purple pills were in his left hand.

Jerry removed the magic lid from the magic bottle, and took out the magic cotton swab, and grabbed a magic pill. Jerry said something silently to himself which I intend was “Hell, why not.” and then swallowed the pill with the help of a swig from his beer bottle.

Its taste was not bad. Jerry now felt he had done something wrong. Maybe, he was to have written first. But before he was to become too worried a story came to him and he began to write.

It was a very good story. In the vein of Rip Van Winkle. A young lad, who Jerry would play, fell asleep on top of a hill overlooking a dystopian city. He was very unhappy in this world. He wished he could change it not just for himself, but for all. When the young man awoke he found himself on top of the hill looking down though on an unfamiliar city. He came down from his mount and walked around this new and as he found better city. Being quite confused he rested on a park bench. An old man seeing this unnerved young man sat down beside him hoping he could assuage the youth's pain. Jerry told him about the world he came from and how happy and surprised he was to see this one. Jerry asked how it became such and how it maintained its wonderfulness. The old man, who was quite knowledgeable, told him the story. He told the version that was not too long to allow the listener to become uninterested and not too short as to leave anything of importance out. It was a very good story and at the end of this he asked Jerry a question, “Shouldn't you be on your way?”

“To where?” Jerry replied.

“Home.” said the old man. Jerry paused. He believed senility had finally caught up to the old man.

“I have no home here.”

This made the old man smile making Jerry now certain of the old man's brain being gone. The old man said, “Then maybe here is not the place you should stay. Your home is there. You might want to go back and share with others the story that you have found here.”

Upon hearing this Jerry knew what he must do. He would return to his dystopian world and share this gift, the one he was given, with others.

As great as this would have been you must already know that this is not what happened. Our world has no magic pencil or magic paper. Neither does it have magic pills. Just regular pills which purpose is to help. The kind you might get after an appointment with a psychiatrist. Pencils and journals with which we can write our feelings and thoughts in and one day share with others.

No, Jerry never came back to our world. Damn shame too for he had so many wonderful stories to tell.

title: The Gift Bag

question:
Answer the following question based on the above passage:

What do the purple pills do?

answer: The purple pills allow for the writing or telling of wishes or dreams to become real.

text: The story plays a trick. It first introduces the purple pills as magical tools that make anything written in a journal with a pen real, but then reveals that they are psychiatric pills. The answer omits the reveal and misstates the first mention.

refinement: The story mentions two different things about the purple pills. At first, the story says that the purple pills are magical tools that make anything written in a journal with a pen real. Then, the story reveals that the purple pills are psychiatric medication.

answer: The note in the bag tells Jerry that whatever he writes in the journal will come true if he takes the purple pills. However, when he takes them all that happens is he starts having visions. The narrator reminds us that in our world all that exist are psychiatric drugs, not magic pills. It is implied Jerry dies after overdosing on the pills.

text: The story doesn't imply that Jerry overdoses. The sentence saying that is made up.

refinement: The note in the bag tells Jerry that whatever he writes in the journal will come true if he takes the purple pills. However, when he takes them all that happens is he starts having visions. The narrator reminds us that in our world all that exist are psychiatric drugs, not magic pills.

answer: The purple pills have magical abilities. When one is consumed, they allow the person who has taken them to dupe reality and write things into existence.

answer: The pills make the user able to fully participate in whatever they write.

answer: They make any written story become true.

question:
Answer the following question based on the above passage:

Describe Jerry's watch and its significance in the story.

answer: As it is described in the story, Jerry's watch is both a timepiece and a gauge for how cold it is outside. It is significant to the story in that it not only helps Jerry to realize that it is not his birthday when the gift bag is dropped off, but also when the card inside the gift bag explains that to use the pencil and journal, one must pop a purple pill. The watch serves as an incentive for Jerry to play along and see what happens next.

text: The watch incentivizing Jerry to play along is made up.

refinement: As it is described in the story, Jerry's watch is both a timepiece and a gauge for how cold it is outside. It is significant to the story in that it not only helps Jerry to realize that it is not his birthday when the gift bag is dropped off, but also when the card inside the gift bag explains that to use the pencil and journal, one must pop a purple pill.

text: The use of the pencil, journal, and pills are described in a card, not by the watch. Since that information isn't about the watch, the related section should be removed.

refinement: As it is described in the story, Jerry's watch is both a timepiece and a gauge for how cold it is outside. It is significant to the story in that it not only helps Jerry to realize that it is not his birthday when the gift bag is dropped off.

text: "It is significant to the story in that it not only helps Jerry to realize that it is not his birthday when the gift bag is dropped off." This sentence is written as if it will continue, but it doesn't. It should be rewritten to express the singular thought without any additions.

refinement: As it is described in the story, Jerry's watch is both a timepiece and a gauge for how cold it is outside. It is significant to the story in that it helps Jerry to realize that it is not his birthday when the gift bag is dropped off.

answer: Jerry carries a watch on the day he receives his gift from the gift bag. The story goes that because it's so cold, he notices that his watch indicates that it's not his birthday.

answer: Jerry has a watch with a temperature gauge on it. He uses it to check the temperature instead of the time. However, it still helps him figure out that it is not his birthday. He is able to figure it out because it is cold outside, and his birthday is in July.

text: "He uses it to check the temperature instead of the time." It's confusing to say Jerry checks the temperature instead of the time. At the relevant part of the story, he happens to check the temperature. The sentence needs to state only that he does that.

refinement: Jerry has a watch with a temperature gauge on it, and he uses it to check the temperature. However, it still helps him figure out that it is not his birthday. He is able to figure it out because it is cold outside, and his birthday is in July.

text: "Jerry has a watch with a temperature gauge on it, and he uses it to check the temperature. However, it still helps him figure out that it is not his birthday." Starting the sentence with "however" isn't warranted since the previous sentence doesn't contrast with the one after it.

refinement: Jerry has a watch with a temperature gauge on it, and he uses it to check the temperature. It helps him figure out that it is not his birthday. He is able to figure it out because it is cold outside, and his birthday is in July.

answer: Jerry's watch has no special significance in the story other than to tell him it is not his birthday. It helps to remind him that this gift is either too early or too late. The watch underscores the importance of timing in this story.

text: The information about the gift's timing is repeated. The second related sentence is redundant.

refinement: Jerry's watch has no special significance in the story other than to tell him it is not his birthday. It helps to remind him that this gift is either too early or too late.

text: "It helps to remind him that this gift is either too early or too late." "This gift" doesn't have a proper referent. The sentence should say "the gift".

refinement: Jerry's watch has no special significance in the story other than to tell him it is not his birthday. It helps to remind him that the gift is either too early or too late.

answer: Jerry has a watch- a watch is not just a watch to Jerry-Jerry gives it a temperature gauge. It gives a good idea if one is appropriately dressed as the exterior temperature can help. Nonetheless, the gift bag came too early for Jerry's birthday, so its relevance is not intrusive. The thermometer gives a more hard-and-fast connotation to the season Jerry provides- even in the middle of winter, the outside temperature helps gauge how to dress appropriately for the weather. The more precise, the more mental markers to join-up. In this way, Jerry's watch is a map of his sanity- much like the way he gauges his arrival at the location or has to be there on time. One must be able to measure well with such tools- Jerry's watch reflects his simplistic understanding of the world.

text: The entire answer is rambly and mostly made-up. It should be re-written.

refinement: Jerry's watch has a temperature gauge, which he likes. On the day of the gift, he realizes the weather is too cold, so it can't be his birthday.

question:
Answer the following question based on the above passage:

What does Jerry find in the bag?

answer: A magic pencil, a brown leather journal, and purple pills

text: The answer should also mention the uses of the items written in the card and the reveal about them.

refinement: A magic pencil, a brown leather journal, and purple pills. A card contains instructions, saying whatever is written in that journal with that pen will come true if Jerry uses the purple pills. However, it's revealed in the end that all these are psychiatric instruments.

answer: First he finds a normal, everyday, yellow Ticondergoa number 2 pencil. Or at least, what seems to be one. Then he finds a brown, leather bound journal. Then he finds a card. Finally he finds a bottle of purple pills.

answer: Jerry finds a yellow Ticonderoga pencil, a leather bound journal, and some purple pills in a bottle. The card included with the gift bag suggests that whoever gave the gift can make their wishes come true if they write them down with the pencil and take the pills.

text: The story doesn't say the giver of the gifts can make their wishes true. It says whoever writes in the journal and takes the pills will live their dreams as written.

refinement: Jerry finds a yellow Ticonderoga pencil, a leather bound journal, and some purple pills in a bottle. The card included with the gift bag suggests that whoever writes in the journal can make their writings come true if they write them down with the pencil and take the pills.

refinement: A gift bag containing a Ticonderoga pencil, a brown leather-bound journal, a card, and a bottle of purple pills.

refinement: A gift bag containing a Ticonderoga pencil, a brown leather-bound journal, a card, and a bottle of purple pills. The card contains instructions, saying whatever is written in that journal with that pen will come true if Jerry uses the purple pills. However, it's revealed in the end that all these are psychiatric instruments.

answer: Jerry finds a pencil, a journal, and some pills. The pencil is supposed to allow him to write anything he wants and have it come true. The journal and the pills provide inspiration for stories.

text: The items don't provide inspiration. The answer misattributes Jerry's inspiration to them.

refinement: Jerry finds a pencil, a journal, and some pills. The pencil is supposed to allow him to write anything he wants and have it come true.

refinement: Jerry finds a pencil, a journal, and some pills. The pencil is supposed to allow him to write anything he wants and have it come true. However, at the end of the story, it's revealed that the items are psychiatric instruments.

One evening in bed, the philosopher turned to his wife and said: “I cannot intuitively, subjectively, or objectively acknowledge your existence,” He sighed as if this was a thought that he’d been laboring with for some time, and went on; ‘at best you are the product of my past experiences and my personality construct, but essentially you are an outcome of my brain’s chemistry, and current physiological state (if they exist).

“The “you” that I believe is you, is an interpretation of a perceived reality. If there is a “real” you, you must be nothing like what I believe you to be, but something entirely unknowable to me. If there is a “you”, you exist at a point in time and space that I will never reach; nor will I ever be able to objectively observe what exists there. It is impossible for me to prove your existence beyond the framework of my own mind. Therefore it is irrational for me to believe in you” He said, his voice rising. “ I cannot believe in you! I do not believe in you!”

With that, the philosophers wife disappeared instantly, leaving behind only the faint “pop” of air rushing in to fill the vacuum where she had once been. “Aha!” said the philosopher, so you were an illusion all along! Logic and reason have triumphed over the untrustworthy human senses!” The philosopher turned on his side, and slept comfortably.

The next evening, the philosopher turned to the empty space on the other side of his bed and said “I miss you.”

Early life

Born in Tonawanda, Erie County, New York, he had two brothers Everell (who retired as an Army Colonel), Thurlow Diller and two sisters.

Military career

Diller was commissioned as a 2nd Lieutenant of Infantry in the Regular Army on February 19, 1923 and he graduated Syracuse University in 1924 with a Bachelor of Science degree in Chemical Engineering. He was promoted to 1st Lieutenant in 1927 and graduated from the Infantry School Company Officers Course in 1928. He was promoted to Captain in August 1935 and graduated from the Command and General Staff School in 1937. Transferred to Philippines in 1939, he was promoted on July 1, 1940 to Major.

I never could get my hyper drive to put me just where I wanted to be. It wasn't too bad, mind you. Relative to the dozen-lightyear jumps I usually made, the 10^-10% discrepancy only ever added up to a few hundred KM off target. I usually just made sure to punch in coordinates far enough outside of any major gravity well, and never had much of a problem. In fact sometimes I'd even make a game out of it. Calculate the center point between a planet and it's moon, or a sun an it's planet (relative to mass), and guess which side of the first Lagrangian I'd end up on.

This time, though, the coin landed on its edge. Initial readings put me smack dab on the fulcrum, split even relative to the two competing gravity pulls of a dirty green gas giant and it's watery blue moon. While I wondered if leaning to the side of the cockpit would pull me to one side or another, the radio came to life ripping my out of my daydream.

"Quit farting around up there and burn into orbit, you're not getting paid to pick your nose," came a smokey, but feminine voice.

Charming.

"Roger. Punching full burn, initiating orbit," I replied, then thought a beat about the voice on the line, "Hey, who's this? Ain't Eric supposed to be running dispatch tonight?"

"Eric called out. This is Frex, I'm new," was the kurt answer, with the audible annoyance and scruffy accent that painted a full picture of the kind of lady that works for an interplanetary cargo company in the outer colonies.

I punched in a few keystrokes, then hit the button to initiate orbit. The ship calculated the thrust and direction needed for a near perfect orbit into a landing -- a problem that would have made a 21st century high school calc student stay up half the night -- in the time it took for the button to un-depress.

I smiled for a second in anticipation, and hit the intercom button.

"Hey Frex, do you like tacos?" I asked into the radio.

"What??" the voice half yelled, noticeably caught off guard.

Butterflies! I rolled with it...

"The ship's showin' 8 minutes 'til docking. What do you say you meet me then, and I'll show you this taco place I know in Lambda sector?" I messaged back, with a grin in my voice.

I quickly heard the distinctive click of the radio connection cutting off. I sat back with a laugh as the outer hull started glowing with reentry heat.

She didn't say no!

A lucky (or unlucky, depending on your point of view) customer got sent the incorrect pair of Air Jordan 1s this past weekend. Redditor blonded8 ordered the coveted “Bred Toe” colorway of the Air Jordan 1 through Nike’s SNEAKRS App in the UK, but was instead sent the upcoming “Game Royal” version that won’t release until March 24th. The irony of all this is that the aforemented black/red pair first made headlines when someone claimed to have been accidentally shipped that pair from Eastbay back in November months before the launch. Is Nike cashing in on this clever marketing tool, or was this an honest mistake?

text:
New here, this is a story that's been in the inner works of my mind for a while and I've decided to release it chapter by chapter for dramatic effect... and if you people don't tell me it sucks. Here goes.

------ Red Eyes! I hated that name. I slowly opened my eyes and waited for them to focus. My team sat around me as we sped toward a hulking mass in the distance. They were terrible people, but then again so was I. We had reached the town after God knows how long; I tried to sleep any time we took a long trips. I hated riding in the ancient snowcrawler we used and besides, the last time I stayed awake for the whole trip I lost my arm in the process of getting the job done. I clenched my metal hand a bit from thinking about it. The phantom still hurt like a mother more or less constantly. We literally slid to a stop all at once, the guy driving loved to do this any time we went anywhere in the thing. We called him Syko and he made a point of living up to his name in pretty much all aspects. None of us particularly liked each other, but there had been several times where he and I had nearly killed each other, and that was on the good days. The town we had come to had been abandoned for a long time but we still moved as quickly as possible. We were “acquisition agents” meaning we were thieves and murderers for The Remnant of The One, a group of militarized fanatics that had dropped their own personal Armageddon from the sky some years ago. Thanks to that, it snowed relentlessly and was also the reason I was born with Ice Child Syndrome. We had come to this place to grab a stash of previously undiscovered weapons left by the old military before The Cataclysm. I pulled a knit cap over my head and turned to head away from the rest of the team. This was the way we always did it, we were all armed and had killed enough times that none of us would hesitate if the need arose. As I was leaving I heard Syko whisper to me over the radio. “Might want to be careful Red Eyes. I can’t be held responsible if we cross paths and you startle me. There could be an unfortunate accident.” He cackled and I heard him unsheathe his sword and swing it a few times. He was undeniably talented with it, but I was just as good with my guns. I raised one out of its holster and cocked the hammer; I’d need the flashlight on it anyway. “Looking to die this evening?” I asked and turned to aim at him from down the hall I had begun to venture down. He laughed in his usual annoying tone again and disappeared into the darkness. “Asshole.” I said to myself and descended down a flight of stairs coming to a locked door. I pressed my ear to it listening intently and to my surprise heard movement. I kicked it down and ducked for cover behind an overturned desk just inside the room and spotted the crates we were looking for in the corner opposite of me. popping my head up to see an empty room, the situation hit home and the only thing I had time to think was “Impossible.” I quickly shifted my weight and spun around to find the barrel of a shotgun shoved into my chest. “Shit.” I heard a bang and was sent flying across the room losing my grip on my guns in the process and upon impacting the wall a loud crack came from my neck. I tried as hard as I could to move my hand to the knife I kept hidden behind my holster but nothing was happening, I was fully paralyzed. As I involuntarily slid down the wall I suddenly recognized the person that had shot me. “Blaire?” She was suddenly face to face with me and slowly began to smile exposing jagged yellow fangs. As I struggled to move, thick grease like blood began to gush from her mouth. She began laughing an unnatural, guttural laugh and the last thing I remember was seeing was her ripping my still beating heart from my chest.

FANTASY PUBLISHING COMPANY, INC., or FPCI, was an American science fiction and fantasy small press specialty publishing company established in 1946. It was the fourth small press company founded by William L. Crawford.

Crawford's first company was Fantasy Publications which he started in 1935 in Everett, Pennsylvania, primarily to publish his magazines _Marvel Tales_ and _Unusual Stories_. However, three books were published under the imprint.

In 1936, Crawford initiated his second company, Visionary Publishing Company, with the intention of publishing books with this imprint. Visionary is notable for publishing the only hardcover book by H. P. Lovecraft that was published during his lifetime.[1]

Later in 1936, Crawford assumed management of publication of _Fantasy Magazine_ from Conrad H. Ruppert and ceased all book publications in order to concentrate on the magazine. After relocating to California, Crawford again published books as “A Crawford Publication”.

Finally, he incorporated as Fantasy Publishing Company, Inc. in December 1946. Forrest J. Ackerman served as a partner for the company and many of the books published by FPCI were from authors Ackerman represented as agent. Undercapitalisation was a major problem with FPCI and many of the books had a cheap look. FPCI reprinted a number of novels by John Taine, Ralph Milne Farley, Stanton Coblentz and L. Ron Hubbard. FPCI continued publishing books until 1972.

During this period, Crawford also used the Griffin Publishing Company to publish books which were not science fiction or fantasy. Two additional books were published by Crawford in 1978, but a publisher was not cited.

Books published by Fantasy Publications

-   _Men of Avalon / The White Sybil_, by David H. Keller and Clark Ashton Smith (1935)
-   _Mars Mountain_, by Eugene George Key (1935)

text:
There was an complete stillness to the air. There was no wind; it was calm, tranquil and cool. I laughed, one short quick exhalation and the vapor cloud  hung in front of my face for a while before dissipating to a realm beyond sight and mind.

I looked down at you. It had been about four years now, but you were exactly where I left you. The blades of grass had started to brown, marking the end of summer and soon the onslaught of winter would be upon us, bringing with it the cold devastation.

It was had been four years now, and judging by the condition of this place, you had already been forgotten.

I thought back to it all. The violence. The beauty. Your panicked breath washing over the skin on my neck, just below my ear. Normally I take no pleasure—well, that is a slight lie, but I deny myself from giving in completely to the fury of it all. The dance, while still skillfully executed, typically contains no emotion. I could make rivers and lakes with what I have done, so what is just one more bucket?

Sure the first time engulfed me. It fueled my desires. Eviscerated with every last second of the moment. It happened all so fast, but time distorts in my mind. It is slowed to the point of seeing a hummingbird's wings flap with a slow and steady pulse. I heard the echos of a heart beat, loud and thunderous, irregular and desperate...

And with you it wasn't any different—though thousands of times this ritual plotted, schemed, and preformed, I heard the echo of your heartbeat. Time was not in control, I was. You had surrendered completely, accepting your role entirely. You had your part to play, though you tried to rob me of it. Foolish, but still what more could have been expected of you? So fiery, so stubborn, and so sad. But oh so beautiful. Your cries still ring in my ears. I can still taste your sweat on my tongue, and the acrid scent in my nostrils. I don't have to imagine it, no. No no no; not you, my dear. And that is what makes you special. That is what mark you have left. That, and the scar from the bite mark on my shoulder.

I watched as your eyes glassed. I stayed to watch you paint the floor. Each and every last brush stroke, divine—sacrosanct. Plotted so precise by the hand of fate. And when it licked my boot, I watched it change—as beautiful as the leaves in autumn.

Ah yes. Autumn.

It had been four years now. And you were exactly where I left you.

The cold air made every sound within a mile crystal clear—clear as the sky on this day. The sun was starting so set now, and the once cool and tranquil calm—the eery stillness was replaced by a gentle breeze. The rustle of dead leaves interrupted the pin-drop-silence I so enjoyed. But as the leaves blew between the gravestones, they were caught and coalesced among the trinkets of those left behind...

There were no flowers.
There were no candles.
There were no wreaths or bells.

You were exactly where I left you. And it had only been four years, but the world has already forgotten you.

You had no mourners.
You had no survivors.
You have only me.

Me...

And it is only a matter of time before I move on. Till my life is once again chained to the ritual, the dance. Your screams will be replaced from my dreams. The blood on my hands will belong to someone else. And then what will become of you? How long till your name fades from the garnet? Your life was a short and pointless echo, muted at my hand. Erased, as if you never existed.

There were no flowers at your grave.
There were no candles.
There were no wreaths or bells.
There were no letters from loved ones.
There were no tears that frosted the browning grass.
You had no mourners.
You had no survivors.
You had only me.

I reached into the pocket of my long coat.
This was my paint brush. This was my pen. This was the baton I used to conduct your requiem.

I set the silver plated, serrated and barbed dagger at the foot of your headstone. A single red velvet ribbon tied into a perfect bow embraced the blade to the hilt.

I blew a kiss and walked away.
