The post below was first posted on another site years ago. It was part of a writing challenge.

The object of this writing challenge was to make the word "closet" be the last word of the first sentence and the last word of the last sentence.

When I was in Junior High, I watched Western movies most weekends. John Wayne was a favorite in any role he would play. Any film with Wayne would work for me. He was a hero of huge proportions, whipping lawbreakers and making peace with Indians when war was a major possibility. In my judgment, John Wayne was wonderful performer, and he was a major presence in my world. He was a proud American who projected justice as well as making life fun for audiences around the world! I hope his many films play forever!

(This week's GBE challenge topic on another site is Illusion)

Is what we do here an illusion? We present ourselves in the GBE as great bloggers/writers. How much reality is there in that? We present ourselves as we see ourselves. Is that reality or our illusion? If you met me, would I really be the guy that is the family man you have met here? Or am I just here because I do not have positive relationship with my wife and children? Would you find me fun to be with, or a windbag full of himself that really cannot sustain a relationship with real people? Would you find my faith to be as tolerant and even handed as I have presented it here, or a narrow-minded Bible thumper that repulses you?

It should not be such a difficult trick
For a certifiable country hick
With a Physical Education degree
That qualified him for the ministry
To sit down and write a cute limerick.
