``you may have done yourself irrepairable damage, through this story.``

For a few of those who became aware of the facade from earlier observations and encounters, the damage was already done. It was only a matter of time before the house of cards fell displaying to public its non-foundation and shallowness.

some folks are having themselves quite a time here.

what is a dish best served cold?! :)

i guess someone declared open season on this board and forgot to tell the rest of us. i suppose this means that i too can bring up any and all personal gripes i have with the writer (and i have a few). except, i’m not a 12-yr old girl.

#31, Romair, {``temporal # I don`t mean to rub it in, but I think you may have done yourself irrepairable damage, through this story. It falls under the category of, ``It is better to keep quiet and have people think one is stupid, then to open one`s mouth and remove all doubt.`` ...So you may have permanently destroyed your career as the resident Chowk literary critic. ...A piece of advice that has worked well for me (and for you): stick with poetry. Nobody knows what the hell is good or bad poetry. Hence it is very difficult to critique.``}

Romair,
That was superb. I acknowledge your very effective approach in giving sound advice. I should learn from you. You provide the perfect blend of compassion, sincerity, logic, and useful directions. If I am ever allowed to write on FP, I will make sure to run my material by you first. :)

Godot #30,
Let`s continue augmenting that list of yours. :)

He can dish it out but the reverse isn`t true.
It`s a lot better to give than to recieve is his motto.

#38, {``this is a work of fiction ... a short short story... ``}

Thank GOD! That was the ONLY good thing about it. It was short, but not short enough.
You show far more imagination, style, and literary strength with ``thank you arjun.`` :)

Mr. Temporal,
Always do your research before engaging mouth and inserting foot in that cavity.

Data suggest that Pavlovian eyelid conditioning in rat can be a useful and comparable preparation to the established work on the inability of certain humans to present facts without resorting to fabrication and slander. :)

Haven`t you had enough schooling for one day? :)

Tempo Sir,
Because you aspire to be a poet despite what Mr. Hamidm2 Sahib says, here is something from Pope. No, not Benedict, sir, Alexander! You are just too hasty with knowledge and jumpt to conclusions with abandon.

A little knowledge is a dangerous thing

I have this eerie feeling that eveyone is only going to read it one way...........

Re: #33 & #34

This is a boomerang. You reap what you sew. That’s why wise men think of the consequences twice before taking an action (note the emphasis on “wise.”)

#45, godot, {``(note the emphasis on “wise.”)``}

But our ``wise`` man would have bolded ``wise`` - thus wasting toner and causing several video monitors to fade away. :)

Romair,
Dost, that was the unkindest cut of all. :)

The story may be so ``complex`` that it can be read in such diverse ways. The author, on the other hand, is much easier to read. :)
