Three Secrets
Written: April 26, 2003
Three Secrets is the little sister to Third Date - they both even have a variation of the number three in the title. I've always liked the number three. Beginning, middle, end. Birth, life, death. Three strikes and you're out. My childhood pastor always delivered three main points in every sermon.
Three Secrets is what happens when Fall of the House of Usher meets Psycho. I loved both stories, even the Ray Bradbury adaptation of Usher in his Chronicles of Mars series. That last scene where the brick and mortar has finally sealed the poor chained victim into his forever tomb. I've never dated anyone or known anyone like Vanessa. I hope I never do. But I have known women who hate men - even tell me they hate men like it's a badge they earned in Girl Scouts. And maybe it is a badge. Maybe some men deserve the Vanessa treatment.
