Dr. Bill Lombardo and his GT LTS 3 surf Highway 101
GT’s Depression and Abduction Sir Waddle A. Lot’s harsh reaction to our article came at a very difficult time in my life. My baby is gone, big butt saddle and all. GT, my love, who was devaluated and demoralized by Sir W, is no longer with us. Immediately after reading Sir W’s critique to GT, he lapsed into a deep depression and couldn’t even get it up enough to escape from the bike-nappers. He was bike-napped, ripped off! It ripped off a chunk of my heart. He was my guy. Debra, my beautiful wife, said, “I want you to know even though I was jealous that I didn’t conspire to have your bike stolen.” Will it be pawn shop, garage sale or junk yard for my old partner? I’m starting a national campaign to have all bike thieves, age eight and above, receive the death penalty by stoning with bicycle nuts, bolts and gears. I don’t think I mentioned that we were an interracial couple. Black is beautiful. GT’s vibrant color and branding are clearly displayed in the only existent picture in which GT appears nude. If you would like a copy, please email me your address. Seeing my dismay, my spouse,Debra, went to craigslist and found a GT Timberline (GTT) gift for me for a $100. Not as upgrade as my old partner, but GTT is young, strong, tough and without a scratch. It’s happening slowly, but the hurt is going away. I am attracted to this younger, shinier GT with RevoShift. It’s far too early to tell whether this spring-winter relationship will lead to marriage. You are right, it was established over seven decades ago that I’ve a lack of class and tawdry taste in all but my choice of women. Perhaps, you can could be a tutor to teach me to be more classy, like you. Anytime you would like to join me for push-ups and sit-ups, you are welcome. By the way, Sir Waddle A. Lot,I sincerely thank you for your well-thought out and researched criticisms and comments. Thank you for carefully reading the article. You have created an awareness in me to be even more careful in my words and data. I’ve always wanted a critic, as it demonstrates that I have arrived. I’m so impressed that I would like to invite you to proofread my next Reader submission. I think we could go far combining our skills. It is nice to have a friend. I think the San Diego Reader should hire you to provide critiques of their author of the week. You do a great job. Oh, yes, Sir Waddle, I presume that you weren't that pedophile that GT and I accidentally jostled in Old Encinitas? If you were, you have my profound apologies for our careless biking. Thank you, Dr. Bill and GTT— February 6, 2012 11:55 a.m.
Liar Liar Pants on Fire /edit
Lovely little tale. However, it dampens my view that the "Lord" is supposed to be omniscient, as our heroine is steps ahead of our magical friend. If our lord is not trust-worthy on this issue, I don't think I should give my devotion. You have changed me into an atheist. I hope you don't go on trail for witchcraft.

The Hitcher Snippet
Nice story. My son wrote a song called "Stop-light Romance" that had a similar theme. The idea that so much can be crowded into a singular encounter in which no words have been expressed. Her only communication of self were her reading and the books she read.My opinion is That this dude was ready to fall into that hypothetical state of love and felt he had missed his chance. I have the feeling he will have other opportunities. Thank you pocolocolombardo— September 30, 2011 10:27 a.m.

The Good Mother
Thank you. In some perverse way, I enjoyed reading your story. It is sad how often "your story" is hundreds of thousands of "other stories" with only changes in the demographics. I have seen your face on many blogs, but this is the first that I have read one. Pocolocolombardo— September 30, 2011 10:20 a.m.
