Sorry, guys: I'm removing everything that I am submitting for publication. Not to be a jerk, just to cover my ass.

Hey Nigel,

I really like this.  I can't quite put my finger on why, but I'm not going to try to analyze it anymore.   I'm just going to like it.

I can see it going into a series labeled "Horrible Children's stories" in Adult Humour section or something.

Very good writing as always :D

I let my kids read the other one and they were like "FUUUUUUUUCK Mom, what the hell is wrong with you?" but I don't think i'm going to let them read this one.

Actually EFO was more like "AWWWW that's so sweet, here's a hug" which was not the expected response.

You are welcome, thank you!

I was just about to explain where this came from, but then it was TMI so I erased it. I will just say that my mother was an alcoholic and I try to never drink much around my kids... at least not more than a few glasses at social gatherings.

Sweet, one of my friends who is a really stunning painter wants to illustrate this one. This could turn out to be series of sick, sad, beautiful children's books.

I love these stories. IMO, this one was even better than the first. :mittens:
My shit list: Stephen Harper, anarchists that complain about taxes instead of institutionalized torture, those people walking, anyone who lets a single aspect of themselves define their entire personality, salesmen that don't smoke pipes, Fredericton New Brunswick, bigots, philosophy majors, my nemesis, pirates that don't do anything, criminals without class, sociopaths, narcissists, furries, juggalos, foes.
