This is great fun.

It was on LJ I learned about the Whaaaambulance which I have used elsewhere on the net.

[anamacha]

The only sad part is so much of this is based in fact! Great post! You've got one of my votes this week! You pretty much always have if memory serves correctly, but I really like this post.

Re: Lol!

[anamacha]

well thanks so much! Tell your friends! I'm here all week. *grin*

Let's see...how do I phrase this?

I think your entry was creative and well-written. It shocked me a bit, though, because even with the sardonic characteristics, it felt too bitter and scathing. It's still a great entry, it just didn't resonate well with me.

[anamacha]

thanks for your comment :) What made it bitter and scathing for you? I know the voice I used was rather sarcastic, but I thought I made it pretty clear that's what I was doing. I never actually came right out and said, but I didn't feel like I needed to becuase I made the voice so over-the-top.

LOL! that's cool :) most folks can, and that's what I was going for :)
