Unfortunate
I'm not usually one to pick up memes, but this one is pretty cool (at least I enjoyed my results).
Simply google the quoted string "Unfortunately ", and take a look at the snippets in the google results. Unfortunately, Cal is also the moniker of "University of California: Berkley" as well as being the start of "Cal Poly". However, ignoring all the football/college related results, the remaining ones were really quite interesting. I feel like each of them could be expanded into an interesting short story.
If I was looking for material for a story, this would definitely be a gold mine.

- Unfortunately, Cal was possessed by evil and nearly lost everything he held dear.
- Unfortunately, Cal was able to escape after killing some marines during a VC attack on Pleiku.
- Unfortunately, Cal's “drilling-for-truth” style and intentional approach to life was not universally accepted.
- Unfortunately, Cal was about dead when he got the hammer.
- Unfortunately, Cal must contend not only with an unreasonable new boss but also with a macho ex-cop for a partner.
- Unfortunately, Cal stops at verse 8 and never gets to verses 9 and 10. He is distracted by his dysfunctional relationship with his father.
- Unfortunately, Cal is wrongfully accused of stealing from his partners and now they want him dead. Sarah, drawn by the spirit of Cal's murdered nephew ...
