We Have Visions of Sugarplums
It is very easy to write like Ernest Hemingway. It is not hard to do. Not hard at all. The hardness is not in writing like Hemingway. No. But writing a Christmas poem like Hemingway, that is hard. Very hard. Too hard for me, I think. But not too hard for James Thurber. He was very skilled, James Thurber. A real talent. Tough as a big marlin. A pity he died.
Sorry, Aaron, but your post isn't written like Hemingway. It's written like a telegram. There is a small, yet significant difference :)

It was funny the reporter was like, "And Aaron Mesh, who works at a hospital, thinks blah blah blah..." As if you were some sort of medical expert. It was cool. Can i have your autograph??
