When Life Doesn't Go as Expected9 total reviews
Comment from Debbie Pope
This is one of the funniest stories that I have ever read. I am so glad that I chose to read your work. I wasn't expecting this, and I was getting a little bored with the same old same old story. You are quite the narrator. Some of your comments might not belong in the story, at least as you tell it, but the randomness of the line makes it even more interesting to me. For instance, I love the line that Gladys was known for feeding cats in jagged edge spam cans. It's my favorite image. It doesn't really fit, but please don't leave it out.
Thank you, thank you for making me smile tonight. I hope that you win the contest.

Comment from Jeffrey L. Michaux
This was a bit humorous. The lad might have been a little what some people call slow. I think that many times of showing the middle finger was a bit excessive as you've stated so eloquently. I think that the family could have a bit more aggressive with telling him about the finger or its meaning. Banishment was a bit excessive I think. Thanks for sharing this well crafted work you've penned here. Well done!

Poor raymond. His Grandmother sewed his hand and it came back to life. I think that this family had a terrible ordeal from the town. Excellent work! Good luck in the contest!

evidently the great grandmother who sewed the finger back on is the hero in this story. I cannot imagine the finger not getting infection. I'm wondering if this is a non fiction story.

A bizarre tale that gives a new connotation to the idea of being fingered. Perhaps the local community would have been more understanding if it hadn't been Raymond's middle finger!
