Probably Curt down at The Perfect Ash. That dude's SMART. Whoever it was it would be chosen by the night clerk at the Holiday Station.

Is the part after the quote, before the bold yours? If so, it's very well done.

I'm the venerable "Thom Atlas" or Richard from 55 words. I, as well, look forward to reading yours. I don't update regularly, and I don't expect you to, but I'll enjoy your attention and paying attention all the same. Thanks.

Sorry about the wordiness. I'm new to the whole writing community world.

Thom Atlas! Hey, grateful that you found my journal. Really like what you are doing on your blog. At 17 years of age, I feel you are well ahead of the curve. Keep it up, please!

Yeah, the part after the quote and before the bolded message about the (cough) new St. Paul Poet Laureate is mine. Vagrant ruminations. Thanks. This journal is filled with landfill like that. It goes back to around 2003, so eat up. I am trying to update regularly. I'll be watching for future words from you.

Stay in touch!
