The Affair at Coulter's Notch: Ambrose Bierce

Bitter Bierce Face

The SPB has many goals, not the least of which is to expand your gray matter by exposing you to things you would otherwise ignore.  Here is some quality American literature for you Stinky Pickles.  This is a short story by the same man who provided us with the quote we proudly placed on our banner.  The first link is to the story.  Admittedly it is a little difficult to comprehend on the first read (I had to read it twice), so the second link is an analysis of the story that helps to clear some things up.
