This story made it all the way to the final cut for a'Chicken Soup'before being rejected. Two years worth of cuts. Pretty cool. It was for my father.

I have to admit this one is well written. I am shocked that they did not take it. I did not send any of mine to them because well you will see why when you go through "Room For One More" and "Vein Puppetry" which are the two of the more maleviolent pieces on there but there are some really dark and nasty little ones on there and each one has its own nasty little personality. This is a strong story as well -- thank you for writing it.

Hi Jake,
Your story was "all that", I can relate very well in this short story as well as what I got from it. It's funny how God and faith sometimes go hand in glove. I recently loss my Dad. And I too had a very, very, unconventional Dad. And just as you, I watched all of his friends and associates look at him for the last viewing, and watched each one of them "compare" notes on all the funny and crazy things my dad did. He too was quite a character. I just met you, and I want to thank you for sharing this short story, and don't ever stop writing from your "HEART". Thanks, Rozie
