Melvar, I don't know where the origins of Cerberus can be read online either. And no apology is needed. I used to publish a web humor column in the 90s, back before they called it blogging. Having someone critique a single plot element as trite is WAY better than: "You're not funny! You suck!" The question is not so much what happened with Cerberus, but why. I think when you find out why Cerberus was nice to Kurt, it will seem a bit less trite.

I'd read it if I knew where. Thanks for telling me Iago, and Greg, sorry for criticizing it.

While I give you credit for using the more original name, the reason his being good is done to death is because he actually is a good guy. Go back and read his origin, he's just trying to protect his master (a little girl Hades killed). Not trying to start an internet fight, just sharing info.

Having Kerberos be relatively friendly has been done to death (I don't think ideas and concepts go to hell). Good idea on the stale dinner rolls, though.

I like Cerberus and the dinner rolls! My opinion of Kurt just went way up for his canine sense.

Also, I stuck your site on my links page, and at least one of my silent geek friends has said he'd come check it out.

@Miladysa: Nothing wrong with liking Cerberus, especially if you're a dog person.

I liked Cerberus - is that wrong of me?

Something I noticed:
"half liter"
