You were very nearly devoured by a giant demon snake. The words 'let that be a lesson' are a tad redundant at this juncture.

You always do this. We get tipsy, and you take advantage of my love of the scientific method.

(Interestingly, it's available through Wal-Mart online, but that seems to be another story.)

Which sort of implies that it's Anderson and not Wal-Mart that's the problem.

If I only had a brain...

See above. Anderson's sole client is Wal-Mart. We can safely assume that their decisions are not unpalatable to Wal-Mart.

If anybody wants to read my story, it should be here:

Sorry, the html is a bit funky, but I think it can mostly be understood.

Trying to read it, Ali, but I keep getting interrupted. I'll get to it tonight if nothing else.

No problem, Connie. Thank you!

In the it's all about me news:

Ok, I'd really appreciate it if anyone who was planning on reading my story did not critique anything, since I've just spent about $20 making 23 copies of it, and I'm not going to change it and print new versions, so if someone makes a brilliant critique, it is only likely to make me upset because I can't implement any changes. So, um, yeah. Feel free to read it, or not, whatever you want, but the critiquing window has closed. If that means I should take down the link, I can do that too. Thanks!

Oh, yeah, right, I knew there was something important I meant to do. t hangs head I'm a bad beta. But, really, such a brilliant person as Alibelle would not have produced dreck.

I read the story and enjoyed it, Alibelle.

Thanks, guys.

Edit: My post really wasn't meant to be a chastisement, I just didn't want to get critiques after I spent money. Also, I wasn't sure if I should leave the link up, if I did not want critiques. And to say thanks again, for all the support.
