Ha! Well, no. I have a very staunch trunking policy, in that I only trunk items that I decide I'd be embarrassed about if they got published. Sometimes it takes me a year or two and 20-30 rejections to get embarrassed, but there it is. There was that one though . . . I really shouldn't.
I should write something new.
BWHAHAHAHAHA! (Like that's going to happen!)
