Comment from Sally Law
Oh, such drama on the writing site. Sounds a tinsy bit familiar, okay a lot. Like a soap opera, there's been a lot of mud slinging on here this past year. I'm glad we can laugh about it in the Cinnabons Drama. It feels good to laugh, at least for me it is.
Some will never give up their character assassinations, I suppose. I think they've forgotten this is a written forum, and there are real people on the other side of the reviewing boxes. Most are great people and give helpful feedback, others are as ridiculous and spiteful as they can be. This unfortunately, is not funny.
Sending you my best today as always, my friend, and blessings abundant across the miles.
Sal xoxo

Hi Sally, thanks for stopping by and reading the satire piece. You make some good points, as usual. Terry.

Most welcome. Always a pleasure, my friend.

Comment from Rachelle Allen
What? No mention of someone with the Even-Though-I'm-At-Death's-Door-Please-Don't-Let-That-Impact-How-You-Vote syndrome? Obviously, then, this IS a fiction piece, just as your disclaimer states!!
And also no I-Have-to-Leave-Because-I'm-In-Such-Dire-Financial-Straits offering, either, I see. Maybe in the sequel?
Anyway, Terry, a very fun romp.

Rachelle,Thanks for reading. There will no sequels. However, there is a satirical political story coming. It will probably get me run out of Dodge. Terry.

Comment from Karen Cherry Threadgill
That's all it takes? I gotta get me a winnebago! That would be easier than writing. But, all that driving back and forth, who would have time to write anyway? Good work. Karen:-)

Comment from Sandra Stoner-Mitchell
This is so much fun, Terry, and very imaginative. I wonder if there are people out there who actually would travel the planet for votes. Lol! I also love the piece in your author's notes. Lee is a brilliant author, and his contribution gives us the benifit of reading two amazing writers joined together in this fabulously funny piece that I've just enjoyed reading. Very well done, my friend. :) Sandra xx

Sanda, thank you for reading. I do want to make it clear, Lee had nothing to do with the story. Terry.
Comment from T B Botts
Hello Terry,
I have to admit, you have quite an imagination, or do you? Is this a reality in some weird writing circle somewhere? Sex for points, hmmm. I wonder how good the sex is. Guess I'll never know. This was a funny post, thanks for sharing.
Have a blessed evening.

Tom, thank you for reading. Sadly, Alaska is too far to drive for Ellen. But since she got kicked out of the group maybe she'll come visit. All just for fun. Terry.
Comment from Wendy G
Did the contest about Walmart shoppers trigger some thoughts here? Lol. Of course not! Did any of the FS people prompt any of this witty and cutting satire? No? Oh really ... lol, then you must take full credit for a very humorous, and clever imagination, as well as for the excellent not-at-all-boring writing!!
Very enjoyable.

Comment from Mrs. KT
Hah, Mr. Bronson!
A friend of a friend of a friend mine messaged me that you were being incredibly naughty- as well as revealing - with this posting, and so I had to come see/read for myself, and in doing so, help you to achieve ATB with the caveat that I expect my next ten posting to receive nothing less than 6stars and promotion from you... How's that?
It is very evident to me that you and Mr. Humpwhistle had a great deal of fun with this offering.
I know I surely did!
Thank you for sharing!

LOL, thank you for the six stars! But just a word to the wise, don?t be too quick to give Hump any credit. I know he is other wise occupied. And duly noted on my obligations! Terry.
Comment from patcelaw
This is a funny story, but very sad that somebody would try to win a contest by doing sexual favors. That is absolutely ridiculous. I will never win if I have to use sexual favors because I'm way past that prime time in my life. Patricia .

Patrica, I am glad you found the story funny. I did take the satire to an absurd level because I didn't think anyone would try that. I am way passed my prime! Thanks for reading. Terry.
Comment from davisr (Rhonda)
Hi Terry,
I love your post. Once again, you're back on your humorous vein! Tell the illusive Lee I said hi!
This was so funny. You had me laughing throughout, which I appreciate, though my dog now thinks I'm crazy, which, I'm pretty sure, he thought already.
Cute, entertaining and fun.
Take care,
Rhonda

Hi, Rhonda, I'm glad you and your dog enjoyed the satire! Terry.

Lol, he's a goofball, but he watches me closely for signs of dementia. He's afraid I'll forget to feed him one day.
Comment from Alexandra Trovato
LOL Oh I am so glad I've been losing more often, then no one can assume. ha ha This is very well written, witty, and interesting, Terry! Your good colorful descriptions and dialogue are so much fun to read! I'm sure many fanstorians will enjoy this, as I did.
Best wishes,
Alex :)
