Terry.
I'm still laughing as I'm trying to type. Hmph, is typing still a thing or is that an old school term.
I can see a little of Humpwhistle in this comedic post. Though you also have that same knack!
A couple of good characters providing comic relief.
Well done, my friend.
Enjoy the day,
John

John, thank you for the six stars. I am glad you enjoyed the story. Humpwhistle, in fact, had nothing to do with the story. But there will be news about him later in the year. Terry.

Comment from Ulla
Hi Terry, Oh I loved it. This was just too witty and great fun to read. I do hope Humpswhistle was involved in this. I miss him on the site.
Your dialogue was fresh and crisp. I thoroughly enjoyed it. Ulla:)))

Ulla, Hump was only a diversion for the story. But there will be some news about him later in the year. Thanks for reading, I'm glad you enjoyed the story. Terry.

Oh, I see. I hope it's good news.

It will be.
Comment from Soledadpaz
What a hoot! This is hilarious, a writers' network's very own Peyton Place. Or maybe it should be called As the WORD Turns. You definitely captured a certain ambience. And, yes, it does have a touch of HW in it.

LOL, Sol, I'm sorry to say, Hump really didn't have anything to do with it...except as a diversion. But there will be some news about him later in the year. Thank you for the fun, creative review. Terry.

A wonderful piece of malicious gossip. Had me chuckling most of the way! Thank goodness FS isn't like that... Mmmm!
Good to see Lee getting a shoutout. I miss that old fella.

Thanks, Tony. Lee is doing fine. He had nothing to do with the story. There will be news about him later in the year. Thanks for reading. Terry.

This was an active back-and-forth conversation. It was life-like and flowed very well. It would however helpt he reader if you could make the font a bit bigger.

Thank you for reading and your suggestion. Terry.
Comment from lyenochka
Poor Lee got somehow pulled into this story! I'm pretty sure that this is completely fictional otherwise the few that win too frequently would feel that this story is told against them. Your imagination is quite wild, Terry! Please don't start any conspiracies - a lot of us are gullible...

LOL, okay Helen?but just for you! Thanks for reading my satirical post. Terry.
Comment from Julie Helms
Oh, you can buy votes?? Is there a mid-Atlantic division already set up? I wouldn't want to step on any toes.
Haha!
Nicely done satire. I haven't been here long enough to notice the purely coincidental resemblances. But I'll keep my eyes peeled now.

Comment from Debbie D'Arcy
Hilarious! I love the sexual favours in return for votes and your imagination making us even wonder if that might actually be happening (not seriously but I don't know - I could do with some boosts in the contests rather than languishing at the bottom:)) Throughout I was desperately trying to think who you were satirising but gave up. So well done for such a great and hopefully imaginative read! Take care Debbie

LOL, Thanks, Debbie; I think I was after everybody, and yet no one person, really. Terry.
Comment from Daylily
This is a hoot. And I do believe there are people such as you describe. -- I do not know any of them, of course.
People are complicated animals...yes, I said animals; as opposed to being plants or minerals. (It is always important to make yourself clear.)
Thanks for the big laugh!
