Ah, Joey, Joey, Joey. Always remember that Wolfe was wrong -- You CAN go home again and Canada is such a lovely place, eh?

Yah, you betcha. It is a beautiful country, eh? But I have a feeling Bleebop is even prettier.

For some reason, reading about Joey the pineapple was just what I needed today. I loved this.

Thank you, Bill. Pineapple Fiction is not for everyone. I am glad you enjoyed it.

Another fine “I can make a story from nonsensical photos!” challenge met, Mark! With a happy ending!

Ah, Jack. Mark Starlin can write an entire saga based on one small plastic button he finds on a bus bench. A true master.

Thanks, Sharron. Was that your button I found? 😂

If it was blue, then, maybe yes.

Thanks, Jack. I thought the story was obvious. It basically told itself. 😉🍍

This story goes in so many directions! I'm so happy Joey found happiness. So many pineapples never escape.

Thanks, Mark!

Joey is a special pineapple. This cannot be disputed.

Sounds like this pineapple’s adventure was quite the trip, but now it’s time for some pineapple upside-down cake to wrap it up!

I have never had pineapple upside down cake.

Don’t show Joey. 😉

I'm so glad you picked a Canadian setting for this. The American towns are overexposed.

True. But the choice wasn’t mine. The bulk of the pineapple stock photos were taken in Toronto. Go figure.

"Space Pineapples" would be a good name for a rock band. #AGNFARB #DaveBarry

Definitely! I might save it for my next band. 🤣

One of my ideas for my current band's name was Salt Flat Sea Monsters. But the other guys vetoed it. 🤣

Some people just can't recognize genius when it's right up in their faces.

Exactly my thoughts. 🤣

“Or maybe Joey just thought too much.“

Is thinking “too much” even possible?

Now whether or not it is a blessing or a curse — the jury is still out.

Expand full comment

It is possible. I definitely overthink things. 🤣

I cannot believe I read that whole story about a pineapple. I'm such a loyal follower. 😂
