Or something like that.

Um, this isn't one of your nine hour efforts, is it?

Justin, dear, lovely Justin, I have reassesed your post and am awestruck by the brilliance of it. Its seeming simplicity masks a truth that only genius like yours could reveal.

Justin! Look what I found?

Are you a Frank? Is that why you hang out at coffee houses so much?

ptb -- I concur. Who needs drugs to stupify us when we have Justin?

Hmmmm ... that may have come out wrong ....

Charlene Amsden said...

Oh, Justin -- I forgot to say congratulations! Bravo! Great job ... and all that. How many pounds of literature does that make now for the year?

Justin said...

Justin said...

p t b: You tend to be right four times for my being right once. So you could be right. With quilly are your side, I'm thinking maybe I misspoke. j.

Justin said...

quilly,
Thanks.
But I'm afraid we are still solidly in the ounces range of literary output. j.

Justin, Justin -- of course I meant that you stun me speechless. Honest. Really. Yup, speechless.

This person posted this comment on my blog and since I did not understand it, I left it. I can only assume that it some attempt at humor and that since the author is French, something is being lost in translation. It does however make me long for freedom fries...is that odd?
