"Dammit...now I have to wait to find out if and when and how you got yourself outta a big ole mess with Madison?! *sigh* Oh well...I liked it. A LOT more laid back than your first couple of pieces. Seems to be a lot more genuine. Just quit teasin me with cliff-hangers...this isn't Melrose Place you know ;)" -- RayeBear, Michigan, USA.
"I'm sorry to say but, yes..the Asshole theory is indeed correct and I will do my best to not follow it and be a typical girl, I promise i won't let all you nice guys down!...Keep writing, seems to me that it's the one thing that keeps you sane!" -- flashdance, westminster, MD, USA.
"dude "don't do anything stupid" I you got some bad luck with those words. YOU got to run away when you any good looking girl especialy a tease like madison. That asshole speech was fucking great" -- Timothy Sams, Orange, NY, US fucking A.
"the asshole theory is not a theory but a fact being one of those abused nice guys myself i should know. Bobby and randy had an argument about apr financing. Bobby probaly doesn't believe it exists. Mac with your luck with hot women senoir week probaly isn't the best place for you. Mary Christine is probaly the safest bet for you." -- Ryan Babcock, towson, Maryland, USA.
"Mack...i love it but i disagree with "ryan babcock" with your luck NO WOMAN is a safe bet for you" -- Ima Foxx!!!, USA USA USA.
"very interesting... i am a firm believer in the asshlole theory... but what happens when the good guy fails you?? you know it can happen. I don't think there is a safe woman in your path right now!! unless you have a death wish.... the story was great and i want more !! but don't make things worse for yourself!! ( your bull shit intrepreter) " -- Aurora James, macon, ga.
"Great peice of writing Mac. Like everyone else I believe in the asshole theory. Women and you do not make a good combination. But it seems to me that you seek out the wrong type of women every single woman you have mentioned has been unbelievably hot, maybe you should take a tip from SHALLOW HAL and look at the inner beauty. Oh and Aurora the "good guy" that failed you probaly wasn't a good guy after all." -- A helpful hand, Chicago, IL.
"Jummy, Jummy fo Fummy banana fanna fo fummy mi mo mummy... ahhh! A mummy!" -- Jummy.
"Jummy??? What the fuck was that?" -- Tom, Gardenville, Wisconsin.
"Jummy rulz!@!" -- Jummy.
"This guy's so fucking annoying... No not you Mack, I don't want you to go hog-ass wild on me like you did with the Storymania Advisor, I mean this Jummy cranial intrusion. I'm gonna kill that guy." -- Tom, Gardenville, Wisconsin.
"Oh no! He's killed me, I'm dead! xxx Here Lies Jummy. xxx" -- Jummy.
"Hey there Mack, great story! Are this Tom and Jummy friends of yours? Cheer up and call me sometime, see ya around!" -- Tara, Baltimore , MD.
"To Tara: Have we met? If not, how am I supposed to call you? I don't even have your screen name for goshsakes (should you have one). Thanks for the review though. I appreciate it. And no, Tom and Jummy are not friends of mine. My own Tom doesn't even know I've posted this." -- Mack.
