Don’t Stop Now, Fellow Fabulists, Once again, Flossophy Agents have fanned out narrow and wide. And, frankly, unlike other news organizations that pretend to make sense of everything from diapers to dogshit, we remain open to any conclusions that may be drawn. Or even etched. Or sketched. 1.]From Riga, Latvia, our Anonymous Ace Agent (while on a mission to ferret out disinformation) delivers ice-hard primary research that correlates the radio volume in taxi cabs. Madonna’s "Likea Prayer" went straight to an eleven. Bob Dylan’s "Desolation Row" was not played during the observation period. Conclusions lurk in the deep shadows thrown by present time. Thanks for the submission, AAA! 2.]And from Midlothian, Virginia, teeth-to the-wind information cowboy Mike "Cow" Bell returns to the north side of the James River with a thousand words worth a picture. Thanks - more Cow Bell, please.
Fatten your money belt for Jesus on East Belt Boulevard.
3.]Finally, after driving from Midlothian to Riga, the entire far-flung Flossophy Family returns home to discover the Bumper Sticker You Need:

Friday Fluff:
We’re making progress. Here’s some freaking proof:
An example of many examples of things.
Write if you (are) or (are not) making bumper sticker progress. We don’t care if it’s real or not. (The bumper sticker or the progress.)
