“Take that, varlet! And that! Mayhaps, thinketh twice thou wilst, ‘ere crossing blades with Sir Jake, Knight of the Realm, Defender of the Innocent, Cleaver of Cowards, Vanquisher of Villains!” “That’s got him on the run, Jake. I think a good tongue lashing was all it took! Looks like you had him pretty confusedContinue reading “Sir Jake, Knight of The Realm”

Ruffing It
It isn’t always easy being a dog. Oh, I will admit, it has its good moments, which surely outnumber the bad. The obvious ones that come to mind are a warm bed, plenty of food, and people who love me. The occasional bone, brought home by Brother BudPie, from the butcher, just for me, andContinue reading “Ruffing It”
Salesman Jake
Jake was so excited! Tomorrow, Brother BudPie, his brave, intelligent, clever, and really cute roomie was heading out to evaluate the market for a new product line, and Jake was going with him!

Flakey Jake
Jake wasn’t feeling all that great, and he didn’t know why. What he did know was that he didn’t like it, not one bit.

Jake Gets a Dog
“Where are we going Brother BudPie? Is it close, is it far, when will we get there?” Jake was somewhat less than the ideal passenger. He wiggled and squirmed and tossed and turned as only a young snake could. He didn’t deal well with suspense, and patience was not his strong suit. “Calm down littleContinue reading “Jake Gets a Dog”
Jake the Inventor (Test Flight)
“There! Almost got it” muttered the little snake as he tightened the last hold down screw for the framgadget in his new jetpack. “Now I just need to hook the torsion spring onto the flapcap, top off the tank with some go-juice, and it should be ready for a test flight.” Jake the Snake, inventor,Continue reading “Jake the Inventor (Test Flight)”
Jake and The Sage of Lost Lake
Jake was hot, tired, and very, very hungry. It was late afternoon and he’d been crawling through these woods for the last two days. His quest to find Lost Lake and the Ancient Sage that lived there had so far been in vain. “Maybe I’ll stop for a bit, have a snack and catch myContinue reading “Jake and The Sage of Lost Lake”
Jake and the Scary Movie
It had been raining all week, and a very bored Jake was stuck inside. With Brother BudPie, his tall, lean, muscular but not totally ripped roomie, down in the tropics, selling a load of space heaters, Jake found himself all alone. Going outside to play was not an option. Everyone knows that no matter howContinue reading “Jake and the Scary Movie”
Jake’s Vacation
One time, not so long ago, and pretty far from here, there was a little snake named Jake. And today, Jake was an excited snake indeed. He was going to visit his very best friend Lemon Lady. Brother BudPie, Jake’s ruggedly handsome human, was going to be gone all summer, on a business trip. BrotherContinue reading “Jake’s Vacation”
Snoozin’ Susan and the Lemon Cookie Caper
Fast forward a few years… Someone had been filching Susan’s lemon cookies. She always knew exactly how many she had at any given time, and of late, they had been mysteriously vanishing. The larcenous lemon lout had tried to cover up his cookie crimes by rearranging the sugar free, non-artificial sweetener, nuggets of lemon lusciousness.Continue reading “Snoozin’ Susan and the Lemon Cookie Caper”
