Just like my white pony elephant conversations with Gary. I know better now than to ask what he likes to eat. Just serve it up. Meat and tater's. Corn dogs. Maybe a can of SpaghettiOs which he will open and eat cold but wrecks havoc on his blood sugar. By the time I turn to him to read his lips I only get the final word. Fact not fiction...only he calls me his "dearest dear" or Pooh-Cakes. Esther

You are totally crazy, Jim, but only in the best way. This is very funny. Congratulations on your very well-deserved win. It's been a long week, and I needed this laugh.

This is a very cute conversation. It seems like they both might need hearing aids. You used very cute words and very good imagery from the artwork you chose. Best wishes in the contest. Teri

This is a very funny pre-dinner dialogue between couple where one is suffering the unfortunate effects of presbycusis I presume. He needs to see an audiologist asap or divorce will surely be on the cards lol. Very well done!

I wonder if you heard me laughing or perhaps I interrupted your sleep. I needed a giggle; I got it. The imagery is superb. One can feel the tension. In my mind, I kept thinking, 'Someone is deaf.' You created a typical non-aggressive argument. The conversation flowed beautifully. I wish you all the best for this entry.

Hilarious dialogue between husband and wife. Either she's hard of hearing, or he's tongue-tied. Great job following the Dialogue Only Prompt rules. A definite contender.
God bless,
Steve

This is a wonderfully playful exchange! I enjoyed reading it. The dialogue is filled with charming confusion. It was so entertaining. I do enjoy how they have this loving patience with each other. Great job writing this - it was a joy to read.

This was a horrible conversation, but a creative and funny Dialogue Only contest entry. You included clear, succinct, understandable statements from each party. The reader could easily understand each character, even if the characters were confused. Best wishes in the contest.
