"Goldilocks" by Robert Mitchell (zikzak23@nospamplease.com). {Guest Review} Most of us are familiar with the childhood classic, Goldilocks and the Three Bears. This story of the same name by Robert Mitchell updates the classic to a more adult level. Goldilocks, a much more adventurous 19 year old in this version, finds herself lost in the forest after sneaking out of her house to meet her boyfriend.

Luckily, she happens upon the home of family named Bear. The three bears, Melissa (Momma Bear), Paul (Papa Bear) and Barry (Baby Bear) are happy to invite her to share a dinner. She is surprised to discover that Porridge was the main course -- Passion Porridge to be exact. The effect of this unexpected treat should be obvious to anyone who's been on this newsgroup more than two days.

Needless to say, the end result isn't the same as the version your mother told you at bedtime. I found the story to be original and highly entertaining and can recommend it highly.
