Synopsis of the stories and essays: * Sammy, a 120 year old writer of stories, arises from his coffin on the shul's dais and later finds that the women screaming "dybbuk" and running from the shul are not that far off..... entailing a trip to Israel and a mitzvah for a couple of historic spirits therein; * It was thought to be an old Groucho Marx line, but taken up by mere insects in this brief take of a Darwinian (re)evolution that ends up being what we already know; * A house showing transmogrifies into an unexpected exorcism of the great force destabilising a great country...were it that easy; * Oftentimes one questions what alternate choices might have been if.... would the result have been comparable to current reality OR are we working on a probability map where we choose the path and get the outcome that goes with it; * While beginning as a description of the daily routines that mirror reality, it becomes a shattering experience for all observers; * Sometimes life-altering discoveries can lead to paths distinct and thoroughly differentiated from anything we have ever known... and present lifelong solutions to the question of "what does one do for tea?"; * When you find yourself in times of trouble, pink, tap-dancing buffaloes will be singing "On the Road Again" as you seek formulaic resolutions to the ages old question of "Who on earth is she?"; * Returning to environmentalism, here is the answer to the last question in an IQ test of decades ago, enacted at the lower levels of phylogenetic development; *Then, 'if the first pass at a story's resolution does not fit, try another perspective' is what the author had to do as the first solution literally died and was more a function of indigestion than the way it needed to finish. Here is where the editor took over as they should...*And if you've been looking around in your mind for all those pesky memories, you can now stop as this short essay surmises that they aren't there, but somewhere else that nobody has yet identified. That doesn't make it easier, does it, but that is the way with asking questions. Sometimes answers are not resolutions.
