He's back and he's fun to read. HDK, you are one sick man. I have no idea where you get your ideas but they are great.
Thanks from a devoted reader.
Well done. I enjoyed it with a smile on my face through the whole thing. As usual, 5* from me. :-)
Okay, Mr. Knight. Since you wrote such a delightful and quirky little story, I've recalled dark sinister men. You can go home again :-), but do not test me. Really a wonderful, light hearted romp of a tale that made me smile and understand that all is right with the world. The King is still out there. You still have the touch. I'll have to give you a five.
and the truth becomes clear, what next, TK U MLJ LV NV
And I'm gonna be angry at you as soon as I can stop this foolish snickering spasm that has seized me !
While I love your stories, and this one was no exception, somebody needs to get working on the next installment(s) of LIR3. By now, I'm sure you have some idea of what DQS went through with WWWM!
Loved the story and loved the idea of legends day. I will have enough reading material for the weekend
I love coming to your offerings for a little dose of humor every day or so. Now that I'm almost at the end of the alphabet, I can start at the top again. (And start on the LIR saga.)
Thanks for a cute little story with lots of chuckles and a few outright guffaws!
Happy Legends Day!
I love the way times are a'changing. The non-cheating wife motif is really fun. BigGuy33 had a Hoot of a spin with it and now we've got the return of the wordsmith. Good week.
I laughed out loud a few times while reading this one. Thanks for that! This story does an excellent job of capturing the often-hilarious insecurity of the perpetually suspicious and possessive husband.
You came through big-time. I knew you would. Perfect mix of fun. Sometimes I just want to have fun, and I reach for your library. I have O'Henry on my library shelves. Sometimes I want "The Ransom of Red Chief." You are my O'Henry of the electronic world. Just the best at what you do, and I love what you do. Thanks for being you. You are inimitable. No one like HDK! Thanks.
I have this image in my head of HDK's preparation for writing one of his stories. Once he settles on a premise for the story, he gets a cup of coffee then sits at his computer. Before he begins to type, HDK tucks his tongue firmly into his cheek where it remains through the whole process. Thanks for another fun read. (5)
What was this, "Dumb and Dumber Part 3: The Suspicions"? One of them was more lame-brained than the other--in either order! Completely hilarious.
Alternate title: "Dumb and Dumber Part 4: The Sexually Unhinged". Why, this couple had more wild sex in this story alone than I've had in the past two days! Aren't they supposed to be old enough to have a teenage daughter and a son in college?
Finally, thanks for those inimitable lines that could only have been written by HDK and no one else. "I had soda down my back and even in my ass crack!" Why, the last time I read that sentence, I was reading Tolstoy!
Entertaining interesting Harddaysknight writing. Glad to see it. Thanks.

Today's story is just another reminder why you will always be one of the all times greats.
I really liked it, but it was only a 4 until the last sentence. . .
The best Gum Shoe story I've ever read ;or is it gum stuck to a shoe? Ha Ha Ha.Loved this story...
Classic HDK. Inimitable style and humor. Is it any wonder that I find myself smiling whenever I click an HDK title? This was perfect and yet another reason that Harddaysknight is easily among my top 5 favorite LW authors.
Kudos, sir.
Between the two of them they don't add up to half a Sam Spade. This is really a throwback to the clever, funny stories you used to post. Great stuff. Thanks.
***** HDK can get me laughing even on the worst of days. Another classic!
Great tale. Lesson learned: Don't read Cosmo. lol
No need for jealousy as both husband and wife love each other. True love.
Five BIG Stars
So very hard to exactly say in this story, which is so effortless to read.
Although I was expecting a denouement in which it was revealed that they had both been reading the same cosmo article...
Holy Kalamazoo! Criminy Bat man it's HDK!
The damn last line was worth the whole read. Can't forget the Hollandaise sauce! Of course it was a little predictable. So what! This was great. I mean Grrrreeeaaattt!!!!
Golly Jeepers. That was fun!
(Sorry, still having lap top problems and can't sign off with my real fake identity, but it's me Jedd Clampett (carvohi), just another of your life time admirers!
Ohio's a hit with his comments by the way.
I been laughing my ass off at your stories since 2004 and this ranks up there with your best.
Boyd Percy
That was great! Dam I needed a good laugh. Finally a good story that was light hearted and enjoyable. Thanks
Just a wonderful funny story that made me laugh AND think about how I need to be paying more romantic attention to my spouse. This type of humor is so welcome and needed in Loving Wives.
Thank you!
so great to have particularly in a class where there is such acrimony if the plot and characters do not follow certain conventions. Even this one got a response with name calling. After laughing so freely I should not have read the comments but dang there are so many fine writers saying good things. It takes a seriousy ill person to to be affended by this plot. It was made better by the wonderful writing and the appreciative audience giving accolades.
My question in the shower how did she take it in the ass so easily if never cheated or happen ed before?
I like salmon myself and I would have like to get some to taste as well.
Many thanks for the entertaining story.

Really missed you and your flair You are the master.
Thanks for a great read, great like always. Please continue to submit here. tom anon
Just as good as you ever were. Funny, well put together, everything I look for in one of your stories.
I have to say, that picture on your bio page, damn! That is art! The play of light and shadow and that body! That woman is smoking! I got to ask, is that who I think it is? Damn!
The ending was fairly obvious, it annoyed me rather than being funny.
And the guy turned into a pathetic mess around the scene with Janice, where he decided that even if Sue had cheated he couldn't live without her.
I give it full marks for humor. It didn't fool anyone, but it was fun to watch the whole farce come to fruition. I'm glad we skipped a food sex scene at the end- that would have been messy.
little weird that a daughter would put food on her naked mother.....but thats just me...
I'm getting good at figuring which way these stories are going but it didn't keep me from enjoying it any the less. It was well written and had a nice flow to it.
No cheaters here. Both thought the other was.
But the pessimist in me wants to say that she's cheating and is SO smart she cooked up this plan to cover up her cheating and her dumb smuck husband bought it!
Bwaa, haaa, haaa! Great take away line!
And another masterful tale from the one and only HDK!
You could see the set up, but not that fish line.
....this little story a lot, even though it portraits us guys as bumbling simpletons. Which I, personally have been, from time to time in my 55 year marriage. Five stars!
Absolutely hilarious and highly entertaining! LOL. I really did and my cheeks are sore from the hugh grin!!! I just love the part where he condems her for believing the Cosmo article, so ironically hypocritical! A husband needs his advantages...LOL
A rather sad description of two insecure people who,even after many years of marriage don’t trust the spouse and can’t even have a meaningful conversation. Foolish,dumb and pathetic don’t qualify as humorous,just sad.
I heard three of my niece's talking about my wife cheating on me with a bastard neighbor. I am currently separated from my wife and have not seen those three little bitches in months.
Your sense of humor is as warped as mine. I love it! Was that grilled fresh caught salmon with melted butter, fresh garlic, squeezed lemon juice and a dash of pepper? If it was, everybody knows that Fettuccine Alfredo is the proper side dish and should be served right next to the salmon so you can take some salmon with a little fettuccine in one bite and if the melted butter tends to run down into the cracks, mmmm. Now that's a meal to please any man (or woman). Thanks for the entertainment!
he could use that take-away gag line!
"If it smells like a fish you'll eat it."
they keep getting better and better LOL
Keep it up you are a great writer with a great gift of story telling
Charlie
Just kinda boring. The plot was decent, but could have been developed more. Gave it 3 stars.
I laughed so hard my face will hurt fror a week! "If it smells like fish......"
