One night I woke from fitful dreams to the sound of mysterious groans and deep exhalations. The room was shaking. My God, an earthquake, I thought. And in New Jersey! I turned over to alert my wife.
But she wasn’t there.
It was dark.
Then I saw her at the foot of the bed, rubbing herself against one of the posters of our four-posts bed.
She looked happy.
Nit-Picking: Not even sure if bird flu existed in 2001. First documented cases were in 2004.
A pretty good story, though.
I had the misfortune of hearing this read live, this was perhaps the worst story presented.
Methinks Hillel Dov is jealous.
No, just an impartial observer who went to check out the readings. Really, I don’t want to sully the reps of any of the actual contestants. (But I’ll give you credit for the username 🙂
Well, I liked it. A lot.
What fun! Thanks, Debbie.
preeeeetty bad. the bedpost bit is funny though.
Nerdo, you’re right. The first report on bird flu was released by the WHO in December 2004.
I think that anyone posting negative comments probably had too much time on their pissy little hands and is upset they weren’t chosen to read.
I’m sick of people like this. Why don’t you be constructive if you really have some issue about the story? And way to be a big nerd and go look up when the bird flu was.
