Spillway Review
Area 57
    


Deriving its name from an amalgamation of Area 51 and Heinz 57, Area 57 is intended to display a broad variety of material not fitting into other categories.

Warning to to the extremely serious:  The risk of encountering spoofs, parodies, double entendre, and intended or unintended humor is greater on this page than on the rest of the website.

a) Pentecostal living
b) flamingos
c) peanut brittle
d) snake handling
e) big hair
f) concrete yard statuary of a non-religious nature
g) leisure suits

A special award will be given for the photo or artwork which best captures everyday Pentecostal living.

First Prize:
Induction into the Order of the Lawn Burro

Second Prize:
Replica pink flamingo

Detalis of prizes are subject to change.

Spillway Review recently received this complaint about our lack of Flamingo Coverage:

Editors:

Your little website shows more than a little bit about a marshy area that is periodically inundated with water, with shallow pools and ponding a part of the natural environment.  Is this area part of the flamingo's migratory area? 

Each year, the many of the flamingos here head north in late May, and I thought maybe your area was where they summered, being as there is a lot of stinking mud and stagnant water there.

I have attached some pictures of what a flamingo looks like in its native element.

I also think your forum lacks a solid Pentecostal base because none of your articles or prose addresses the much more significant topics of big hair, peanut brittle, or fancy underwear.

Just Sayin'

Bro. Bob
