These ads are great. Earl. Congratulations on your win in the contest. I understand why you were a winner. You used great descriptive words for both. I like how you made both appealing but for different reasons. Thanks for sharing. Jan

It's very nice and clever. This refers to heaven and hell and accordingly the clauses are different .It is a brilliant idea and I hope you win in this contest because the idea is totally original.

A job well- done. I hope I'm able to answer the first ad. The second ad sounds like a neighborhood in Chicago. I wish you the best. I did think both paragraphs were too long, perhaps if rules allow, you might want to break them down to smaller paragraphs, which the reader likes.

I thought this was very clever if none too subtle. 666 drive, landlord a carpenter, inferno drive, etc. Heh, heh. This got it pretty right as a juxtaposition of fifferent places and worlds, much like Bedford Falls and Pottersville in the movie, it's a Wonderful life. But I always thought swinging Pottersville looked like a lot more fun than boring, stuffy Bedford Falls. Bowling Alleys could go either way. The underworld here is naughty, but not too evil. XXX theaters , thanks to internet porn are a nostalgic, quaint thing of the past. I've been known to play the ponies and I've been to a casino and have nothing against taverns and bars. I guess one person's hell is another man;s heaven. Reminds me of the Union general who after the civil war said if he owned hell and Texas, he'd live in hell and rent out Texas.

If the unit doesn't have what you want the landlord, an experienced carpenter, will build to suit you. ... Very, very clever, heh-heh-heh.
Seriously, that was good!
So far this entry looks like the winner to me.
Best wishes to you in the contest.

Dear Writer,

I like the one for hell better than for heaven. (LOL) Depending on your personality your hell might just be heaven for some people although I don't know if anyone could take the heat.

Good luck in the contest.

Cheers,

Winslow

Great job on your entry for the contest, well done. Each paragraph has a line I particularly like- 'the landlord, an experienced carpenter, will build to suit you' and 'where you can make a glutton of yourself, and it's all sinfully delicious'

Good luck!

Was it General Sheridan who said if he owned Hell and Texas, he'd rent out Texas and live in Hell...and Twain(I think) said he'd go to Heaven for the climate and Hell for the social life...now, that exceeds 150 characters, so I can say, excellent post, and go my way...

This is a great entry for the A House for Rent prompt. i liked your choice of Inferno Drive and Paradise Lane. Good descriptions support your write and make it a good entry. All the best.

Wow! What a hard choice! Inferno Drive sounds like a lot of fun, though maybe a bit of a noisy neighbourhood. I suspect that the selling agent may be guilty of one or two sins of omission!

    He probably is. But remember there is no AC or ice in Inferno Drive. Thank you for reading and reviewing my work.
