Like the moth-ridden Victoria's Secret lingerie that bulged beckoningly from the top shelf of the dust-laden hope chest of her youth, Helen Thomas understood the need for eternal optimism in the face of a Republican administration.

It was a dark and stormy night in Texas as the winds of Carla lifted the cold silvery sheet iron from the barn roof and flung it toward the outline of a trench coat...........

In my universe Stanley would have been a rabbit that lived on the median of the Long Island Expressway.....If I ever write it, I will send it to you first, for review.

How is it that I can envy terrible writing? The sun oozed over the horizon is delectably bad. LOL!

It is a horrible line. I believe if that is the best the writer has......they don't have much.

Only if it has a happy ending. We enjoy watching the rabbits who live under our Colorado blue spruce tree and don't want to see them squished by a car.

By the way, have you ever read Paul Gallico?
