Okay, I concede! I am somewhat behind the scene. I was unaware of the term 'catfish' as referenced in the entries in Catie's contest. Most Southern boys are only knowledgeable of the kind caught out of the river on a hook, using a worm for bait. The fictitious character in my entry was nicknamed Catfish based on his love for fishing for them in the manner I described.

Very well illustrated, James. Isn't this the all too often, ugly truth? Isn't it sad when people accept the lesser of themselves; focus on substituting their Rose of God's for a fake one? If they only would cultivate The Rose, instead of the thorns, there'd be no need to paint a false one. All the best in the contest! God bless. :) ~ Artsie
