November 22: "The Imperfect Patsy" by John Dromey

[Smiley]

Please join us at 8:30 P.M. (EST) on November 22th, 2014 (0130 November 23rd (GMT), in #readers_corner, for a discussion of the short story The Imperfect Patsy  by John Dromey.  

 

From the sublime to the ridiculous!  To kill or not to kill, that is the question, From our last discussion of a serious contemplation of the morality of euthanasia or murder for love, this week's selection deals with inadvertent assassinations in a light hearted, indeed almost frivolous manner.  It's an easy, fun read which should provide us with a number of opportunities to take cheap shots ------ err well aimed criticism of a humorous tale.  Please note:  The story is on several web pages (pp 27 though 31 inclusive).  At the bottom  of each page you will need to click the link " continues " or the following page number to navigate to the continuation of the story.

 

The story is available on line at:  http://www.bdlit.com/the-imperfect-patsy.html

This is a good story to discuss over a glass of peppermint schnaps or hard cider with a few soda crackers to absorb the excess liquid.  I'll bring the crackers, bring your own beverages.  And please, because of the crackers, no chatting in bed.  I hope to see you there, and don't hesitate to bring a friend.
