Comment from Begin Again
I suspect you were just toying with our humor and the possibilities of wanting things we don't really want. At times when the pressure seems more than we can handle, we make the wrong decision and pay the consequences. Too bad there is not a three-second rewind... where we could honestly see what we are about to lose, not what we thought.
Hugs, Carol

That's for sure. I'm sure there's been many at the very last moment that wished they hadn't tried, but yes, I was just being silly with this one. Thank you for the gracious stars and for stopping by, Carol. I hope you new year is starting off well. Have a wonderful day.

Comment from LisaMay
Yep, no matter how far you go to get away from your troubles you still get subjected to rudeness. Thanks for taking me on a tour of US monstrosities. I think I would like Carhenge too. (Here in New Zealand we have things like a big carrot, and a big gumboot.)
I enjoyed your humour:
The UFO Welcome Center in Bowman, South Carolina was a dud, but at least I saw it.
It's a pity you committed suicide, but I guess that leaves contests open to others to score gold.

Comment from Dolly'sPoems
Although this is flippant and humorous, for me it had an undertone of truth as some people think they was to die but when the reality of it hits them, they really want to live. This happens with those who take an overdose and sometimes they succeed in killing themselves and it is too late to reverse their wrong decision. A fine write, love Dolly x

Thank you for the great review, Dolly. I'm sure there's many regret their decision far too late. I was just having some fun with the contest. I appreciate the generous stars. I'm glad you liked this silly piece.

Comment from SimianSavant
Hmm, now what will it take for me to surpass this work of art in the contest? Something on Nazi time travel? Yes I think that could work.
"This is a beautiful and appropriate work about a beautiful and appropriate family for the contest and satisfies all the requirements". Yeah, this might get you a couple of those reviews, without the adjectives. My favorite moments were going out for a loaf of bread, the giant hotdog, and the angels. If the in-laws are vegetarian, that would also help. Oh and how could I forget about Carhenge. If you have not seen this Ylvis video, it might make you want to go to Stonehenge too before you die. Or watch a few more Ylvis videos.
Excellent work, friend! Loved the picture too. It is kind of subtle when you first look at it.
