w the Bed King Uses His Legs
– Symbolic Presence: Though he never rises, his legs remain—a quiet acknowledgment of movement that will never occur.
– Royal Comfort: They rest beneath the folds of regal blankets, a sign that he could move but chooses not to.
– A Declaration of Permanence: His legs are not for walking—they are for asserting that he does not need to walk.

the van
an in the World of Rhyme
– Instead of standing at a stall, the Pieman could park his van at the fair, its doors open, revealing rows of perfectly stacked pies.
– When Simon arrives without his penny, the Pieman might close the van doors with quiet finality—no pie, no ride, no exceptions.
– Perhaps Simon tries to barter, offering curiosity in place of currency, but the Pieman remains firm—without payment, his pies do not leave the van.
– If Simon finally returns with a penny, the van could roll forward—not just giving him a pie, but carrying him deeper into the Land of Nod.

The Pieman is neither forceful nor distant—he stands in quiet anticipation, his work never truly done, as though there will always be one last pie to be handed over.
Matilda, do you think the Pieman is satisfied now that the penny has been given, or is his presence tied to something deeper than the simple exchange?

The Fair—Then & Now
The fair where Simple Simon once met the Pieman existed in a time of rhyme—its stalls bustling, its pathways lined with vendors calling out their wares. It was a place of straightforward exchanges: a penny for a pie, a laugh for a song, an adventure tucked within the folds of daily merriment.
But here, in the Land of Nod, the fair feels different.
Then: The Fair of the Past
– Full of movement, voices, decisions made quickly.
– Vendors selling goods, no hesitation—just transaction.
– Simple Simon arrived with no penny, and so he left empty-handed.
Now: The Fair in Nod
– Quieter, more thoughtful—a place where questions linger longer than answers.
– The Pieman waits, not just to sell, but to see if the exchange truly matters.
– The penny has arrived, but is the pie the only thing being offered

UrAss schedules home and home with school of blind
Umass Football Coach Hays has scheduled a two year football series starting in 2026 with Berry’s Blind Bastards University. This has totally shocked the College football landscape as Umass competes at the Division 1 level. Coach Hays spoke in a recent interview “We are adding the Berry Bastards to our schedule for the next two seasons to guarantee a win” Umass has been one of the worst teams in the C-USA the past few seasons and is on the verge of losing their football program as a whole. The University of Massachusetts is looking into replacing their football program with Cricket as the school’s number one sport and money maker. Coach Hays and the minutemen could really buy some more minutes, adding a blind football opponent is definitely a start. The minutemen are back at home next week against conference opponent Georgia tech. The first 35 fans through the gates will receive a 100$ stipend in gratitude of sitting at such a shitty game.
