566 - Starving.

A: "I'm starving!"
B: "C'mom, hold it up a little bit more, the camp mustn't be too far now, I think it is just behind that hill."

GRRRRRRRRLLGRRRRB

B: "Wow, you really are starving, uh?!"
A: "That wasn't me."

And when they turned their backs to see what had made that weird sound, they saw an starving dinosaur running toward them at a high speed.

565 - Every penny worth.

When the rich woman finished paying her bill at the supermarket and the cashier gave her a few pennies as change, the rich woman looked at them with disgust and threw them to the floor like if they were worthless.

I, who was watching everything in the line to pay for my products, ran to where the rich women was, pushed her a littler and picked up all the pennies she had thrown, those few pennies were just what I needed to buy a chocolate milk that I had left on the shopping car because I was short of money.

564 - Robots.

"These robot will be installed there, where all your workers are, and it will produce 5.000 units daily, approximately 4.500 units more than what all your workers produce together in a day, and you won't have to pay him extra-shifts, nor bonus, nor anything, so... What do you say?"

"Mmn, I don't know... 5.000 units you say?.. Mmn... I don't like these new technologies, and I don't like the idea of having something without intelligence nor soul doing all the work of my company."

"And, do you really think that your workers, after being working for you for years, repeating the same action one time after the other, eight hours a day, everyday, still have a soul? Believe me, my friend, when I told you that my robot has more souls than all you workers together, its because it has."

563 - The lost muse.

The writer used to sit everyday at the same hour in front of his computer to write, where his muse always waited for him to inspired him the most brilliant ideas.

One day, the writer sat in front of his computer but his muse wasn't there, and without her, he couldn't write a word worth reading.

The next day and the following, the writer noticed that the muse wasn't there, next to his computer, anymore, so he packed his stuff and  went travelling for searching his lost muse.

The writer traveled the world and tasted all kind of delicious meals, but he couldn't write about them because he didn't have his muse by his side; he saw beautiful landscapes, but he couldn't write about them either without his muse; he met awesome people, but as you know, he couldn't write a word about them.

When the writer came back to his home after having traveled all over the world searching for his muse without finding her, he got really surprised when he saw her standing next to hes computer; and without losing any other second, he put all his luggage away and sat to write with his muse by his side.

While he was writing, the writer asked the muse:

"Where have you been? I've tasted delicious meals, seen beautiful landscapes, and met awesome people."
"I've always been here, waiting for you to come back" answered the muse.
"But, I went away to search for you!"
"I know."
"So?"
"I had to hide myself from you for a couple of days because you were running out of ideas, and I needed you to get out and see the world, taste delicious meals, see things you've never seen before and meet all kind of people different from you; so now, you have tons of storied to be told, so stop talking and focus on writing."

562 - The rabbit with the peg-leg.

The rabbit with peg-leg was always limping all over his pirate ship, with a glass of brandy in his hand and looking to the horizon, remembering the old times when he used to live in the forest and hopped everywhere without nothing to worry about; but now...

Now his only goal was to get his revenge...

To get his revenge against that old pirate who had chopped his leg off in order to have a good luck charm to commit all his piracy.

558 - Heavy sleep.

"Look dad! There's a dog sleeping in the middle of the road!" Said the little kid to his father looking through the window of the car.

The father, when he heard his kid, looked back through the driving mirror and noticed that his son was right, there was a dog lying in the middle of the road.

"How that dog sleeps in the middle of the road, dad? How he's not awakened by the sound of the car that pass so near him?" wondered the kid.

"I don't know, kid... He must be a really, really heavy sleeper..." said the father, doubtful, because he didn't have the guts to tell his son the truth about the dog.

When the polar bear came back from his vacation from the Caribbean, no one recognized him, because he had tanned so much that all his fur wasn't white like the snow anymore but brown and dark like the fur of any other regular bear.
