Red Neck Blues

Jerome was growing more concerned by the day; as he matured, his neck grew to be bright red.  Just last week he had been called a Communist, a Republican, and a Good Ol’ Boy, but what if his not using sunblock had let skin cancer get started?  What was the fix, remove his neck?  He guessed that option was better than nothing, but he would look kinda short and stumpy, like a lot of the rednecks he had seen on TV. . . . .  David, Sf.G.

Delicate Skin

Greta (her friends called her “Whitey”) chided herself–she knew better; she had an advanced degree in dermatology from the University of Phoenix (on line).  There is no way she should get this much sun without  at least SPF30 UVA and UVB sunblock.  But for the moment, the warmth just felt so good . . . .  David, Sf.G.
