I regret that I didn't finish my entry in time, but I might do something with the idea anyway.Kelly Robinsonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01752857506190488860noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8787364257168822822.post-77747854463342242432013-09-27T19:16:41.741-05:002013-09-27T19:16:41.741-05:00Well, I guess "pear Nirvana" is a cheap ...Well, I guess "pear Nirvana" is a cheap Western joke, Prashant. It was my jokey way to show that the narrator thinks Jarvis is a pseudo-sophsticate and a poseur. I know that it's a state of being but the addition of pear as a modifier was my attempt to show that Jarvis thinks there are different types of Nirvana. Maybe it doesn't really work -- just my odd style of humor. Thanks for the compliments all the same.J F Norrishttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06473487417479127354noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8787364257168822822.post-51698869276669877062013-09-27T14:42:49.409-05:002013-09-27T14:42:49.409-05:00A well written and well told story, John.
