Title: I WON!!!!

I WON!!! So here I am, glancing through the newest Flare, and what should catch my eye?
The name Ti Philippe.
Well, that snagged my attention, and I stopped to READ what I had just saw, and sure enough, it was MY lil story about Ti Phile's first white worm.
I think I win nothing but bragging rights, but that is good enough for me.
Page 17, check it out.
And yes, it is quarter to 4 am, and I am am JUST realizing this, lol.
'And the story??
I decided to give my new fish a treat, white worms.
I came to Ti Philippe, the baby of the crew.
I gave him his worm, and he RAN like the dickens away from it. Then he crept up on it very slowly, like it was going to lash out and wrap around him like a micro constrictor or something.
He swam backwards away from it, like we would back up from a raging dog, not making eye contact, but definately not looking away, like if he took his eyes off it, it was going to suddenly leap through the water and attack him.
He got his courage up, and gave it the fin, swimming away with his back to it, then he turned back around rush at the worm, flaring at it for all he was worth. He did this a couiple times.
By this time he is thoroughly confused, and he turned sideways to the worm, looking at it with one eye, and the turning at looking at it with the other, The puzzlement was clear.
Finally he turned to look at me like I had grown two heads. I could see asking first, what is wrong with you, second, what in the world is this, and third, what am I supposed to do with it.
I couldn't take it any more, I had to leave the room, so I missed the light coming on, and the final coup de gras. When I returned, the worm was gone.
This by the way is a true story, and Ti Philippe happens to be the nephew of my favorite Putz Brothers, Tom, Rick and Harry.

Pffttttt... I wish, all I got is bragging rights, I think. But that is OK. I just wanted to share my story, I never thought I would actually win, lol.
