Thanks for the comment sunken. I'm tickled pink that you took the time.

Ahem. Blimey. I wasn't sure what 'sculling' was, so I did a google :-

Sculling is a means of propelling watercraft by moving an oar from side to side, while changing the angle of the blade so as to always generate forward thrust.

This has some wonderful implications, Mr. Willie. I feel I can learn a lot from you (-; Well done on the award. A very strong write and no mistake.

	bintarab - June 18, 2008 Nah, not her hair, but something quite unexpected -- the kind of thing that you can't help staring at because it's so strange, sickening even, but some kind of morbid fascination keeps your eyes glued to it!
	sunken - June 17, 2008 Will you be telling us what it is, Mr. Bint? It's keeping me awake at night. I suspect it's something related to her hair... I'm way off the mark aren't I? So many questions, so little oatmeal. s u n k e n lacks concentrati...

	howard - April 30, 2008 Thanks, Johnny. If I had room here and above all if I had the courage I'd tell you the ridiculous personal incident that inspired the piece
	Johnny Nys - April 28, 2008 Good one, Howard. A realistic depiction of this world's madness. It reminds me of the old stories about people living in bomb shelters, thinking the entire outside world has gone nuclear.

A very true voice. It's supposed to be chaotic, but that makes reading it chaotic as well. You need to find the middle road when writing this way and then it's the old saying of not being able to please everyone. Some readers will go with it, others will stop reading.
