[SPOILER]

kdeezy - The protagonist found himself haunted by a deceased tattoo artist with the same craving (hence the cans at his shrine).

I had the pleasure of listening to this on the drive back from St. Patrick’s day with a wicked hangover, and given that’s how the story starts, I got really drawn in. Nice and spooky — keep ‘em coming.

FABULOUS reading: Ben is stunning. I’m going to drink some amaretto to celebrate this fantastic show. It begins w/ the all-too-familiar hangover and ends w/ the idea that being cynical will not extricate you from your daily life. Oh, yeah, and tats can crawl into yer ears. Good lesson. Pass the revenge covered almonds, please.

I love Ben's reading.

Man, I'm not really sure I understand the ending, or the addicting to almonds.

Best one in quite a little while. Perfect for Mr. Phillips' reading style. It sort of reminded me of my youth.

Sure did seem as if it were set in Atlanta.
