I'm sorry; you're just seein' a...
Dan was four hours into studying, increasingly confident that his midterm for Mathematical Modeling was going to kick his ass. He was still groggy after twelve hours of sleep. And Jimmy would not. Stop. Texting. Head resting against the table, Dan felt the phone's vibration through his cheekbones for the third time in ten minutes. He groaned and dragged the...
The traffic on the 210 freeway was moving along at 75 to 80 miles an hour even though the posted limit is 65 miles per hour. As every good driver should do, Garie noticed the traffic had completely stopped in the carpool and fast lanes, with the slower lanes still moving.

The stars were bleeding through the layers of dusk, the sun dipping behind a range of barren rocks that made up the foothills of the Sierra Madras. The light was followed by another, the same neon green. Then another. One of many iron meteorite...
