Jimmy

The day before, no one had wings. Then, wingspan.

At first, people used sidewalks for take-off, swimming pools for landing. But, like any burgeoning industry, it didn't take long for runways to appear, attachable to roofs, decks, or even fire escapes, for the now-flighted apartment dwellers. They were made by the people who used to make slot car tracks and fold-out ironing boards, proving that those industry were for far too long underrated.

Speculation was rampant; the PE faithful thought their cause vindicated. Literary scholars knew the real truth.

Jimmy spends hours a day ‘up,’ avoiding homework.

The FAA is pissed.
