My wife was going through some old school papers tonight and she was reading some of them to me.
She read this one that she wrote in high school as Screwtape or Wormwood writing a letter to whoever they wrote to or whatever. The letter kept referring to a character named “Thomes” (rhymes with ‘homes’). Thomes this, Thomes that, then she suddenly sheepishly and surprisedly said, “Oh, it’s Thomas.”
I laughed and laughed.
She’s posted a few things at my expense, so I thought a little payback was in order!

Just so you know Tom, C.S. Lewis (author of the Chronicles of Narnia) also wrote a book called “The Screwtape Letters” in which Wormwood was a character. (I think.) At least you listen to her read her stuff…..Kevin just wants to see empty space where I have (correction HAD) old school stuff stored!

I so enjoyed this entry, and the ones that Mrs. ITF wrote! :)
(Unrelated side-note…I can’t ever find your web-site, because where I am in the South, it’s ICE tea, not ICED tea. :))

[…] I was mentioned on Tom (Mr. Iced Tea Forever)’s blog! (Here is where I’m mentioned.) He has a fun blog. (Check out this for one of my favorite posts, as well as the links that he has in that post.) […]
