A good man is hard to find….said the lesbian. XD
“A Good Man is hard to find,” is an excellent story. I loved the plot! The beginning I was not so sure, but it started to pick up when the grandma recognized the misfit killer dude.
“The Grandmother shrieked. She scrambled to her feet and stood staring. ‘You are the Misfit! I recognized you at once!’ she said.”
Even when they crashed the car, I wasn’t that interested. Because hey, people get in car accidents all the time, big deal. But when grams was like “Hey, I know you! You’re the misfit!” and he just casually said yeah pretty much. I loved how everyone died in the end, that is very uncommon for authors to do!
“Hiram and Bobby Lee returned from the woods and stood over the ditch, looking down at the grandmother who half sat and half lay in a puddle of blood with her legs crossed under her like a child’s and her face smiling up at the cloudless sky.”
The bad guy almost never wins. So to read that the “bad guy” shot all of them was quite a change of pace. Add some blood, guts, and some crazy german guys and you’ve got a Quintin Tarantino movie. LOVE it. But I suppose it wouldn’t be a Flan story if it had blood and goodies.
“She would of been a good woman… if it had been somebody there to shoot her every minute of her life.”
I think that this story should be made into a movie, if it hasn’t already. This would be such a good movie, but only good ‘ole Flan should add some gore. There better be some big blood spatters on like trees or something when the family gets shot and whatnot. Yep. You know what? Let’s just hire my man Quintin for some FX gore makeup and some editing techniques, and Flan can just sit there and sign copies or whatever. Give us the copyrights and we’ll take this to Hollywood. I bet we would get a lot of money.
“‘Lady,’ the Misfit said, looking beyond her far into the woods, ‘There never was a body that give the undertaker a tip.’”
