The Facts in the Great Beef Contract
This story, first published in 1870, is refreshing in a way, because it demonstrates very clearly that a dysfunctional government bureaucracy has been with us for a long time, yet, we have managed to survive so far. So the next time you spend countless hours trying to straighten out an incorrect tax bill, think about what the guy in this story had to go through. The music for the episode is "Busybody", by Bryan Teoh, from FreePD.com

A Curious Dream
In this humorous but thought-provoking story, Twain reminds us to respect and honor those who have gone before. This is a adaptation is from a story Twain probably wrote around 1870, and was first published in 1875 in the volume, "Sketches New and Old". Music from FreePD.com includes "Footsteps in the Attic", by Arthur Fordsworthy, and "Nightmare" by Alexander Nakarada. Sound effects are from Soundjay.com, and from my personal recordings.

Mrs McWilliams and the Lightning
This is one of three stories that Twain claimed was told to him by a man he met on his travels, Mr. McWilliams. I suspect the stories are homage to a couple he was friends with while he worked at the Buffalo Express.
