Not only is Bert far from a black and white villain (even if he's tactless when he and Manuel first meet), but Manuel gets no comeuppance, which has to be pretty rare in these kinds of stories.Granthttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09603892208775996594noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-31723906.post-43292114857109738252016-12-04T20:34:12.895-08:002016-12-04T20:34:12.895-08:00Brian, I never ran, but for several years I had gr...Brian, I never ran, but for several years I had great gams. I walked all day on my job, walked for exercise with my wife. I wore shorts and was proud of my muscular calves. Since I retired my muscular calves have gone flabby and slipped down into my ankles.

...Ryan, I've been wondering where you had gone.<br /><br />I'm making a literary judgment here, but with its odd setting and premise I think this story slipped over into something that could have been hallucinated by one of the characters. At least it didn't seem to belong in any reality I could relate to.<br /><br />By the time the ending came up I didn't really care. I was just relieved it was over.Pappyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01977289662431694607noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-31723906.post-16168777649464067142016-12-04T20:27:03.186-08:002016-12-04T20:27:03.186-08:00Daniel, don't be offended, but you got my goat...Daniel, don't be offended, but you got my goat by asking for a joke.Pappyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01977289662431694607noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-31723906.post-4209045419886428162016-12-04T04:14:17.768-08:002016-12-04T04:14:17.768-08:00Hi, Pappy!

The only thing I have to say about it is that I think Manuel's revenge should have been on the cold-hearted boss who fired him, not the poor sap who took his place. Or maybe he should've avenged himself on the fickle Lita. At any rate, the ending was unsatisfying for me because: either Manuel should've gotten revenge on Mr. Spence or he should've gotten his comeuppance for using the goat god in the first place.Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05389353987133860660noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-31723906.post-59022711115285760692016-12-02T13:49:30.131-08:002016-12-02T13:49:30.131-08:00There's so much to talk about in this one, but...There's so much to talk about in this one, but I can't get over the constant reiteration that men's legs are key to everything.<br /><br />* men will hang around and comment on how great your legs are<br />* latina hotties will flock to your side<br />* you will become an expert rock climber<br />* you will be richly rewarded<br /><br />I'm convinced!
