  1. "Alma" by Junot Diaz

    Alma is slender as a reed, you a steroid-addicted block; Alma loves driving, you books; Alma owns a Saturn (bought for her by her carpenter father, who speaks only English in the house), you have no points on your license; Alma’s nails are too dirty for cooking, your spaghetti con pollo is the best in the land.

    My third story o’ the day. (Sorry, so far I haven’t strayed from The New Yorker — I’m my parents’ child.) This one’s a short (barely 2 internet pages), fun read.
