My first semi-pro published story! Yay!

Read me! Comment me! Like me!

[Mr. Tweedy]

Your lack of shame shocks and appalls us.

Congratulations.

[tbaker2500]

Haven't read it yet, but congrats!

[Algernon Sydney is Dead]

Haven't read it yet, but congrats!

Ditto, but with less rats.

Ditto, but with less rats.

I was inspired - Kong'Rat'ulations!

[Algernon Sydney is Dead]

Er... That was less rats? Also, might need a skyscraper -- for scale.

[tbaker2500]

Hahahaha!
That is awesome.

[ROU Killing Time]

Your lack of shame shocks and appalls us.

You mean Cong-rat's-man Weiner. Show the proper respect! (None.)

[strawman]

Hm, a skyscraper and a Blackberry, maybe?

[bell]

Cong Rats? I've heard of them; aren't they led by Ho Chi Mouse?

Hmm, I respect the effort but you can do better than that.

This is a perfect opportunity for all Americans to unite together and channel all of the highly crafted weiner humor that we developed when we were 14 years old.

[strawman]

14 on the short bus.

[ROU Killing Time]

Yes, Strawman. I think all of the major news outlets let their inner 14 year old short busser shine this week. I'm not sure that's a bad thing, however. Been a lot of national tension and stiff necks lately. Maybe we needed some comic relief before we get back to day to day stressing.

On a completely unrelated topic, I think everyone should go and read Bell's first semi-professional published fiction which can be found at http://www.ideomancer.com/?p=823

[Algernon Sydney is Dead]

Oh, no you don't!

This thread was all about Bell's story or Kong-ratting him (¿her?).

That is until someone started poking his Weiner into it.

Maybe if you mentioned that it was a democRAT weiner....

[strawman]

As anyone familiar with early childhood development could tell you, to stick this on 14 year olds is an insult to 14 year olds. The weiner and butt laughs were for middle schoolers.
They succeeded the elephant jokes (age 7), which succeeded the Knock-Knock jokes (age 6), which succeeded Peek-a-boo.

[ROU Killing Time]

Sorry, I didn't mean to be a Dick.

Yup, it's the democrats turn to engage in the high political art of throwing a party member under the bus and give him a good Gingriching.

(For the record, you won't get any argument from me as to whether John Edwards is a slimeball either...)

(@Strawman, I apologize to the 14 year old PAC for my insulting remarks...)

[strawman]

I only regret the diversion from Bo's artwork , which is suitable for framing by short-bussers of all ages.

[bell]

Sigh.

I went to college with Elliot Spitzer, I was at the same high school (10 years before) Weiner. Have no choice but follow in their footsteps and become a schmuck?

No. I can become a PUBLISHED schmuck. That's a higher grade of schmuckdom.

Yes! Please read my story! Bring this whole discussion to its web page! It's insufferably highbrow as it is.

It's insufferably highbrow as it is.

But I think Brian's comment is refreshingly lowbrow. By which I mean It's the one I could understand. Awesome right up up to where he stopped reading. That's worth a few shots of distilled potato juice, Anatoly. Will the site accept Bo's jpeg as a comment? How about a comment like, "to read more of Mr. Belilovsky's work, see http://www.drabblecast.freeforums.org" onclick="window.open(this.href);return false; ?
