"The Great Cake Caper"
"The Great Cake Caper" Nothing ever happened in the little town of Maplewood on this typical Saturday morning, or so it appeared. Until his prized cake, a towering, expensive confection covered in layers of buttercream and fondant roses, inexplicably vanished, that is, at least, what Simon, the local baker, believed.

"The Great Prank War at Work"
"The Great Prank War at Work" It all began quite casually. Dan, an extremely serious accountant, was clicking at spreadsheets while seated at his desk. Even though the office was business casual, he was the type of guy who always wore a suit and had the energy of a sloth after a three-day snooze. For him, work was all about numbers, following the rules, and staying away from anything that could even be called "fun."

Tom's Trojan Paste. Runner-Up in Absurdist Awakening Challenge.
I switched toothpastes when the conspiracy theories finally got to me. Patty Lovarco, my seventh grade science teacher, was the first to warn me about the toxic effects of fluoride. Since then, I had done a bit of research, and searched my soul for an answer to the question: "Would my own government really do that to me?"
