‘As good as O. Henry could write’ and ‘grand slams’

o_henry3Your daily Letters to the Columnist — Feb. 15, 2013

Dear Mr. Casey:

You have won the “Lie of the Year” Award and it’s only February!

All other contestants need to acknowledge your superior talent and give up. Sunday morning’s story was as good as O. Henry could write.

I love surprise endings. So, celebrate TT’s birthday with Chile-Chili and a good laugh!!!

You have hit two grandslams this week and it is only Tuesday!! Your articles are such a pleasure to read. Keep up the good work.

Sincerely,

R. G. Garrett, Jr.

    Well I used my super powers to deflect the astroid away
    from Earth. The space rock is no moving away.

    I guess I saved the planet once again.

    Thank you for saving us, Rob Thommins. Superman would be jealous.

    Yes. Thank you, Rob Thommins, but I have to ask: why do you hate Russia so much? You left a piece behind. http://www.reuters.com/article/2013/02/15/us-russia-meteorite-idUSBRE91E05Z20130215

    I am grateful Rob, Thanks!

    Go Dan Go!

    Rob,

    It was the meteor not the asteroid that was your assignment.

    Many prophets were wrong. Go figure.

About this blog

    Metro Columnist Dan Casey knows a little bit about a lot of things but not a heck of a lot about most things. That doesn't keep him from writing about them, however. So keep him honest!

    He welcomes your rants, raves and considered opinions, so long as the language is civil (i.e. no four-letter words). He'll read all your posts and may or may not respond.
