	Gerry. - November 20, 2008 Harry your descriptive phrases are incredible--and they leap out at the reader... Gerry.
	Jerusha - November 19, 2008 Harry, this is a wonderful story. I might toss in a comma here or there, but otherwise would not change a word of it. Poignant, smart, witty, colloquial, charming - each in perfect measure. I envy your gift.

Jerusha - November 6, 2008
Edit--revised last paragraph.

Years have passed since I last stood on a ball field, but whenever work and family pressures get me down, I go to the bottom of my hope chest, dig out my Jim Finnegan autograph-model ball glove, and breathe in the aroma of a too-brief time when a girl could play shortstop.

	AndreaUKA - September 7, 2008 Awww, thanks for reading and commenting you guys. Pssst...nice to get away from UKA sometimes (don't tell anyone I said so though :-))
	HarryB - September 6, 2008 Looks like Grant will be looking at the world through a lattice of bars. Good for Mum! Love your alliteration, ( pruning pears, potting petunias or slaying slugs) Andrea.
	sunken - September 6, 2008 Hello Ms. Andrea. Ya know, I sometimes forget that you write. In my head you're that hippy woman from UKAuthors. I muchly liked your sub. It puts me in mind of a girl I know who has a thing for carrots. I hope this has helped. Thank you. s u n k e n he ticks in his sleep
	orangedream - September 5, 2008 My goodness, Andrea - there is so much I identify with in this one. Absinthe, rainbows, sunflowers. In short, this is magic. Andrea style. Tina

	HarryB - September 6, 2008 I thought it might be interesting to compare a deaf man to one who will not play a role in the world until he sees the danger to us all. Thank you both very much.
	Veemem - September 6, 2008 I too am impressed by this story Harry as usual you give value. A story that had me hooked right from the first sentence. My admiration grows. Val x
	orangedream - September 6, 2008 What a story, Harry. I am quite lost for words. What drew me to it was not only the fact it was written by you, but that the cat is called 'Chessie'. Not a common name for a cat, but what mine is also called. She too loves mirrors and every night she comes into my dressing room and preens herself in front of mine. I digress. A moving story, from every aspect. Highly recommended. Tina

	Gerry. - August 5, 2008 Brendie,it's sickening isn't it? What is society coming to? Glad your mum got the important little things back--I wish her well... Gerry.
	orangedream - August 5, 2008 An uplifting read, Brendie. I got much from it. Right is might sometimes, I guess. I have to say, I love the phrase, "...and they 'bimbled' off together..." Wonderfully onomatopoeic! Tina
