ArtFizz or Hemingway?

Sort:
Enormous_Gastropod

Some say Art Fizz bears a resemblance to George Lucas. I see a distant relation to Earnest Hemingway.

One waits - too long. In the sun. Alone. With no mate. In one.

You wouldn't happen to own any polydactyl cats, would you?

Art sat in the tournament hall and watched the other players in the distance and there was no sound but the scraping of chairs on the floor and a few footsteps. Years before he remembered that there had been mechanical clocks and the ticking would be everywhere in the tournament hall but now there was only silence and he took another drink of his whisky and thought of other days.


Alone.

... apart from the Rodriguez - the blind, lame matador who could never resist saying Olé whenever he took a chesspiece. A giant snail slid mournfully over the piazza outside - world-weary, shell-shocked - his molluscular body glistening in the dying rays.

For luck ArtFizz carried a chestnut Queen in his right pocket. The woodgrain had been worn down long ago and the edges were polished by the wear. The Queen's tiara peaks scratched in the lining of his pocket and he knew his luck was still there.

"Is that a queen in your pocket - or are you just pleased to see me?", he scratched out; the line wasn't quite right, not as taut. Many were pleased to see him ... go, but oddly that did not include Polydat (his odd-toed cat).

Hemingway's style is certainly evolving.

I think you mean devolving.

BUT these are all white/grey haired old men - whereas ArtFizz - alone - is a tousled-haired, whipper-snapper still is his prime. Surely. On the piazza.

Enormous_Gastropod

Quite right. This is the real ArtFizz:

veggiegirlie
