I've just enjoyed reading another crazy Ohmie story, Wayne. As usual it made me chuckle and wondering what Jimmy Buffet would think of it. It sounds like a first attempt at making insect repellent, gone a little wrong. Well done.

    I was in contact with his office (several times). They couldn't confirm Jimmy's position, but laughed at what I wanted to do. I figured suing me would ensure publication.
    (I'm a little bit respectful not to make him say or do anything ugly.)
    Thank you for the review.

    Too funny, Wayne. I can't imagine him being too upset. You are most welcome. I always enjoy these stories.

Wayne,

Ohmie never disappoints and this was an interesting profile of prehistoric Jimmy as well as UAPs (timely given today's hearings that are bound to reveal less than has been in the public domain for 70 years). Only one criticism -- I know E.T.s, personally, and they do not consume terrestrial produce! They all pack their lunches before taking human-watch excursions aboard their small ships. I thought you should know since you have held to strict adherence to historical facts.

I did feel sorry for Mr. Sabertooth. I'm sure he didn't have a will leaving his body to medical research, or human sustenance!

Sue

Cute story. This is something different and creative. Now we know who was the founder of catnip. One is never too old to learn something new. I enjoyed your story and look forward to your next inspiration.

Oh goody, another Ohmie story. He's getting to be one of my favorite FanStory characters.

Dang it, Wayne, I enjoy Ohmie's exploits so much I neglect my reviewing responsibilities, But I gotta do it. just a few observations, FYI.

Para 1, sentence 4: "sabertooth" should be "sabretooth"
Para 4, sentence 4: "sabertooth" should be "sabretooth"
Para 6, sentence 1: "then" should be "them"
Para 9, sentence 1: "sabertooth" should be "sabretooth"
Para 12, sentence 3: Should "of" be "off"? Just asking.
Second to last paragraph, sentence 4: double punctuation after "spin.,"

I am usually so engrossed with Ohmie's story that I never even notice or even look for suggestions. Very creative.

Now I get it. I had to look 'Nepeta" up to find out it is popularly called "catmint" or "catnip" to the layman. And it's a common ground cover. I just might have to look into Ohmie's discovery for my own yard.

I love your description of Jimmy chugging the rest of their concoction to "test" it. "pasted" one side of his face" Classic.

Another great Ohmie adventure Wayne. One that would have garnered a six from me, were it not for the few exceptions I found. Thanks for the continuing saga of Ohmie and friends.

    Thank you for the great review.
    A saber-tooth (alternatively spelled sabre-tooth)
    Thanks for the typo/punctuation issues. The right brain is sometimes turned off when the left brain is at work. grrr

I think you've got your tongue stuck firmly in your cheek with this story Wayne! I love the fact that Ohmie's mum is making a stew from a slightly aging Sabre tooth tiger, and this is the prehistoric Ohmie along with Jimmy Buffet, one of my favourite singers, well done Wayne, good scribing Roy
