Jane lively appeared on laurie pritchart’s front porch while morning frost was still on the grass. the scattered clouds on the horizon were orange and pink, painting those same colors in reflections from the aluminum silo. the faint mooing of cows drifted from the barn, and jeb pritchart was busy fiddling with the spark plugs on his aging john deere tractor. he didn’t seem to notice the arrival of jane’s pickup truck. perhaps he didn’t care to notice it.
“morning, jane,” laurie said, stepping out onto the porch. “what brings you over so early? ”
as usual, jane’s mouth had a sour twist to it. “laurie,” she said, “i think you know why.”
laurie forced a smile. “is this about our fence line? ”
jane folded her burly arms across her chest, looked grim, and nodded. “two of your steers are poking around in our south pasture again.”
laurie laughed. “well, i’ll get jeb to send bobby over there to collect them—soon as i get a minute.”
“well,” jane said sharply, “i expect you to get to it right away. and i expect jeb to get to fixing that fence real quick. i don’t trust that bobby loomis to fix it right.”

hi there!

one thousand and one nights, also called the arabian nights is a collection of middle eastern tales compiled in arabic during the islamic golden age, dated from the 8th to the 14th century. this collection was compiled of largely middle eastern and indian stories with an uncertain date and autorship whose tales such as aladdin, ali baba and sinbad the sailor -these ones were the most popular ones, the ones that have almost become part of western folklore.

as in much medieval european literature, the stories contained in this collection are set within a frame story. its scene is central asia, as known as "the islands or peninsulae of india and china", where king shahryar kills his wife after discovering her infidelities and as well as any other who betrayed him.   then, loathing all womankind, he marries and kills his new wife each day until no more candidates could have been found. his vizier had two daughters, scheherezade and dunyazad. the elder one -scheherezade- having devised a scheme to save herself and the others insisted that her father needed to give her in marriage to the king. each evening, she used to tell a story leaving it incomplete and promising to finish it the following night. the stories kept the king very interested, so eager to hear evey ending of each story, that he puts off her execution from day to day and finally he decided to give up with his plan. these stories are contained within the collection of 1001 nights, the bulk of the text is in prose, although verse is usually used for songs and riddles to express better the heightened emotion of them.
