In the blue bottle I found, there was a chocolate bar. I consumed it. Then another appeared. I consumed it. Another bar appeared and I consumed it. And another....

Yes! "Forever and the Earth" so impressed me I visited Thomas Wolfe's home and grave years later.

For me, the highlights were the two dark tales, "The October Game" and "The Burning Man", and the superb mainstream pieces, "The Better Part of Wisdom" and "Interval in Sunlight".

I forgot to mention "The Pumpernickel", a story that meant so much to me that I typed out the whole text to send to a friend.

"Have I Got a Chocolate Bar for You!"

"G.B.S. - Mark V"

Several times over the years.

I don't think the rust would help, man has always needed war... it's in human nature
