Looks like Rusty's been banned by the thought police. My carefully crafted work has fallen upon deaf ears (with the exception of that mouth breather, the easily excitable Sunburnt).

Don't ask, the man's a sucker for stale, recycled plot lines and predictable outcomes.

It's your own fault for subscribing to that fanciful, homoerotic drivel. You'd be better off reading grocery store, cowboy romances than that tripe.

HPL is a bit camp, but that's part of the fun, nu?

It'd be fun to combine the two.

If by "fun" you mean Uber Gay, then yes.

I see a jumbled orgy of tentacles, six shooters, torn open bodices and creeping death.

This is the first installment of a series of reviews of various cities, towns and homeless shelters around the world. First on our list is Halifax, primarily because it is home to our most prolific poster (Very Rusty) and, secondly, because when your stoned, you can't say the word Halifax without laughing.

Good things about Halifax include quaint review of Halifax. Fair and balanced I always say.
4/10

N - Your thoughts are very jumbled at times.

N - Transitions were too sudden to keep me drawn into the picture of this town you are trying to paint.

N - Repetitive in places.

P - I felt as if I could relate to your pessimistic and borderline self-destructive brand of humor.



All in all, at least it kept my interest long enough so that I did FINISH reading the post. That alone is saying something...

My initial read was enthusiastic. Yours seems harsh. Beginning to realize we may learn less about Halifax, Nova Scotia, than the Province of Hecate.

Upon further review, I may have been too critical. Given that it was posted in the forum of a correspondence chess site and that, I assume, he doesn't post witty articles for a living, I would give it a solid 7.5/10.

My description of Halifax was dead on. Spend any time there and you'll soon say to yourself, "Hey, that ahole the Hand was dead on." Pull up the AAA description of Halifax and you'll get the fluffy, whitewashed version of the Atlantic utopia. My review is untainted by tourism fluff.

I couldn't care less what my "rating" is (secretly I was very concerned about my 4 out of 10 score and considered putting my boot in highflier's ass) . I laughed writing it and that's all that matters.

You've got an attentive audience... so pour it on!
