The Price of Pussy

A Fun Run

A nice short story with a giggle.

Not up to standard fare

Just not as good as you usually are. Better than ninety percent of the trash on here, but we're used to awesome from you

Please

Finish brother love Q

Yet another slut- wife named Sherry cheats on qhml1 narrator !

When oh when, will these fictional tramps ever learn to either buy into the unalloyed joy of monogamy or change their name to something a bit more frumpy like Agatha to throw this discerning author off their tail err ...trail ?

In all seriousness, I'm sorry to learn of your corporeal maladies and wish that your health rises to the level of the five star talent flashed and realized in multitudinous stories that have entertained us since your first feckless submission to the intimidating , unkinder and ungentler Loving Wives arena.

REDNECKS, MONEY AND FAMILY

and none are for sale at any price. TK U MLJ LV NV

The kind of respect nose to a cheater that puts it clear and simple....

....wow! What's not to like?
I note here, he must like gingers.....he married a second one, when he found one sparkly enough to keep him interested. And he did right by her.

Sorry to hear about your recent difficulties. Life has a way of grinding, sometimes. It's what we do with that experience and the attendant pain that defines us, not how great we party or how low our golf score.

"Carry on, my wayward son,
they'll be rest when you are done,
lay your weary head to rest;
don't you cry no more." -Kansas, Carry On, Wayward Son, 1992


Thank you!

nice flash

I wish you luck you with your troubles.

Loved the picture in my mind's eye !

As always , the LW Laureate comes through ! Great flash story, the picture of the wife in my mind's eye was just a wonderful thing !
On a serious note, my condolences on your loss. Here's wishing you a speedy recovery on the cancer / reconstruction front, sounds like an awful ordeal to go through. But in a totally selfish and possibly childish way, if this allows for more writing time for my favorite current posting LW author ( and top 3 of all time LW authors) then your legions of fans will be the ones who come out the winners in the whole shebang.

LOL

I read for entertainment and this story had me laughing out loud . Don't know why but it just struck me funny. Thank you for sharing a good tale. My prayers are with you, and you are not alone. 2016 has been and continues to be a stinker of a year.

Three 'must read' authors today

You were the first story.

One of the best short stories in LW...

One of the best short stories in LW...I hope you get well soon, and free of all your health problems...You are a "must read" author in LW...4*

The problem here is

qhml1 has written some of the best stuff on here. Living up to those standards is not easy. This story had no tension and little, if any, plot. It was a nice read, but read "Boston to Birmingham" to see what this guy can do when he puts his mind to it.

The return of the Southern Gentleman

Made my day. God's grace to you and your family, Sir. Thanks for the tale.

I'd pray for you

Even though I'm an avowed atheist of the "last king strangled with the entrails of the last priest" persuasion, I'd pray for you, if it would help. That's how much I love you and all your stories through the years. Please get well.

when q posts i know things are right with the world

First, let me offer my condolences on your brother. Glad you and your sister are on the mend and I'm thrilled at the possibility of more stories from you. Five stars for this effort, it was great!

I'll pray for a speedy recovery for you

Thanks for the story too - but hopefully the last surgery will be a success.

The master

Always enjoy your tales. Please keep them coming.,but careful with the oxy.

Great little story

I am saddened by your year of troubles and hope that you will recover as well as you can. I can understand your mom and the rest of your family feeling some stress and wish you all the best,

Thank you for all your stories. You are a one of those writers that when your name shows up you are the first read. You give so many people an escape from their own lives for a short while and I thank you for that.

Hm

Sending you wishes and hopes, qhml.

Condolences

Sorry to hear about your family, pullin for ya man.

As for the oxy... well I just detoxed after four months on the stuff (3 surgeries in late 2015). It was ugly. A fat old guy with PMS in a concealed weapon state... bad combination. lol

My best to you and may this just be a blip in your rearview mirror come 2017.
