I'm sorry!!! Please don't hurt me!!!  Jill (who is very afraid that people may try to blow her up for what she did to Jimmy and how she went about getting Lois to cut her hair)

well, i'm a nutcase, but i liked it.  S P O I L E R S P A C E jimmy's fate was a bit predictable once you'd set the scene, as was the hair thing... but maybe that says something more about how twisted my mind is than about the story.  frankly, i flashed back to a tiny toons skit involving plucky duck, hampton pig, and a game show called "that's incredibly stupid!" (to get the grand prize, they had to find a needle in a haystack inside a darkened warehouse full of fireworks and such) anyway, i never saw the jimmy twist coming. that was just great...  of course, the line "we're going to need another timmy!" has special significance for me, but that's another issue.  great job, jill.

When in doubt, think about penguins. It probably won't help, but at least it'll be fun.

Oh my, Jill. The man watching the scene from his car parked a few yards away smiled to himself. Mr. Wilson would be pleased, very pleased indeed.  LabRat

Well, I'm not quite sure what to say to that. You managed to send me through a whole roller-coaster of emotions in not very many minutes. First: I was impressed that you know about the chemical make-up of flash powder. (Learned something new there!) Then I got very worried about Jimmy until the 'How are we going to tell Perry?' paragraph. That somehow seemed to make everything okay again. Twisted, but okay. No, let's be honest here -- hilarious!  Of course, I had no idea that Lois and Clark could be quite so calculating, and all I can think now is that perhaps someone should tip off Henderson, and suggest that he looks to see what (or who) is buried under their patio. Mind you, maybe Henderson is under the patio. After we didn't see him again after that first season, did we? Doesn't this bring a whole new meaning to the graemlin with the axe?  Chris

Mr. Wilson is indeed pleased. Even though Lois' haircut pretty much got second billing status in this little story, the blowing up of Jimmy made up for it very nicely. I like Lois, short or long hair (but short is better) but I dislike Jimmy very much. He is the most useless, inane, and annoying supporting character in all fiction. He's the JarJar Binks of Lois and Clarkdom. Tank the Resting (who just got back from helping out at a local comic shop for Free Comic Book Day, and is tired... and old... and tired)

Oh, Jill, this was great! I gasped when Jimmy pulled out the lighter, then was relieved that Clark saved Lois (glad to know his priorities are straight <g>), but couldn't figure out how you were going to explain Jimmy's death. But then when Clark says "We don't tell Perry" and explained about the last time ... ROTFL!!!! Brilliant, clever and very, very funny. Kathy

There's just one word for this:  I could see Jimmy getting blown up after you explained about the powder. And the haircut was logical too. But explaining it to Perry like that? Very twisted and evil. You should do it more often. Saskia

Oh, jeez! More flashbacks! But I can't quite place this one... I have a feeling my brain is protecting me from something...? Other than that, what everyone else said! Jill, you don't have to worry about anyone hurting you -- none of us can breathe! We're laughing too hard!
Do you know the most surprising thing about divorce? It doesn't actually kill you, like a bullet to the heart or a head-on car wreck. It should. When someone you've promised to cherish till death do you part says, "I never loved you," it should kill you instantly.

Thank you all, so much, for you comments!!! I'm glad everyone seemed to like this, even if it was a little evil...<g> Jill, you are evil, sick and very twisted. Moi? Wendy, you wound me.
