Cammo,

I'm loving your Bob's Big Talk series. I especially like that each story has absolutely no moral! The tall tale is a great genre and you allude back to Paul Bunyan and other classics...but I see some other influences there also. At times, I'm reminded of Mark Twain's work (especially ROUGHING IT) and at other times the tone is almost like Garrison Keiller. My father is really into all manner of North Woods and Wilderness fiction. He especially likes Sigurd F. Olson. I'll have to send him links to read your two stories. He'd appreciate them.

You got any Tiki Talk Tall Tales? Sorry, couldn't resist the alliteration...
