I've listened to this story a few times. It is often there, gnawing at the back of my mind. I'd have to say it's my favourite of the podcast stories I've ever listened to. Something about it is just a little too close to home. Fills my head with shadows. Makes me scream and smile at the same time. I know Jack and Myrriden and Little Boy Leg Bone.

If you ever saw the 'joke' last strip of Calvin and Hobbes and it made you feel something painful and indescribable like a half-forgotten memory and an empty stomach, this story may get into your head.

Good show...

Lodged firmly in the back of my head. Good analogy about screaming and smiling at the same time, though I have to wonder if the "Average Joe" would be affected as much.

Kudos for the brain-stimulation - *Wanders off to ponder a bit more*

Wow, that was pretty freakin' great. Some of it was exactly like what I can remember from grade school, too.

Ah I'm a sucker for great last lines :)

Good story though. Who reads them, the authors, someone else?
