Hmmm, very tough question! Perhaps: "Resentment is like drinking poison and waiting for the other person to die" What's your favourite electrical appliance?

"Delectable" What's your favourite vegetable?

LOL, well personally speaking it wouldn't be more interesting to me since I probably wouldn't know who any of them were! LOL, mind you I didn't know who half the celebrities were either. However, I definitely agree with the sentiment: it would be nice if more politicians and business executives were out.

Did anyone else note that there was also reference to The Scar offing someone who refused to conduct business with him? I'm thinking that was something CJ did on purpose to show us that they were both equally ruthless and dangerous. That way if there is some confrontation later they'll be well-matched! Just my opinion though. That's a good theory! I thought "WOW! That was harsh!" Until I read the "as always" part Yep, I think they're both references to Brandon, not Lump, now being the lead singer though. WOW! I didn't realize there might be an ulterior motive! Now I'm really curious!! On the issue of the lyrics, first off I agree with Conner, they were really sweet and probably scored him quite a few extra points, and made for an eventual steamier night, with Chase Second, I must say I was shocked that CJ included them! WOW! Way to go, CJ! No way would I have been brave enough to try to write song lyrics for a chapter I was working on! Good Job. Anyway, I'm really glad they were there! I thought they added alot to the story! I admit I was also curious to try to figure out what kind of music might accompany them, but it definitely didn't bother me. Anyway, awesome chapter! I'm looking forward to the next one! Take care and have an awesome day all! Kevin

I just read 14 and 15 yesterday whilst on a day trip. Awesome job, CJ!

Well, I went to visit my mom for Thanksgiving and didn't even get back to Houston until 7am! So naturally I elected to head home and go to sleep. I'm pretty sure I wouldn't have been doing any of this anyway though. I enjoy shopping as a relaxing, recreational pursuit, I'm pretty sure standing outside waiting in lines and dealing with a mass of grumpy, greedy people would ruin that for me! That does sound like fun! I hope you folks that went got what you wanted though! Take care and have an awesome day everyone! -Kevin

So glad you're home now, CJ! The place wasn't the same without ya We missed you too, Ieshwar! Your hot chocolate got cold No worries though I'll make you and CJ both a new batch

*gasps* Have you guys been partying without me!? Have a great day all! Kevin

**gasps and hides screen before Lucky sees!** Cats don't reek! But so that we don't leave them out how about: Freline - n. A reclining feline. Call all you like, the freline isn't going to get up. -Kevin

Well that's nifty! I've been up about 24 hours straight and I'm doing good to remember even simple words right now! But I'm very eager to check it out!!!!

Welcome back, CJ!! We missed ya! -Kevin

I sure did! It rocked! I may blog about it later if anyone's curious The person below me....doesn't remember how (s)he got there -Kevin (who just realized that makes him sound like a horrible person )

It changes alot depending on exactly what's going on in my life at the time. It used to be Thursday, then until recently Monday, and now I think I'm gonna have to go with Sunday. What's your favourite month?

Wanting what you've got/can get is certainly the key! In lieu of that, I guess I'll take what I can get and work from there. English Muffins or Biscuits?

Toy Solider - Britney Spears LOL, I'm having so much fun with her new album!

That's nice by any reason, IMO -Kevin (who doesn't eat turkey or any other traditional Thanksgiving food )

Nifty link, Jack! Thanks I knew bulldog was gay! He always set off my gaydar when he was on Frazier! Since we currently have a QAF thread going, I thought I'd comment that Ben's actor (darn if I didn't already forget his name) was just as cute in the pic as he was on the show! I didn't like Randy Harrison (Justin) or Peter Paige (Emmett)'s different looks/styles nearly as much though.

Men, errr I mean "Mars" Books or movies?

Well there are lots of forms I need to fill in, but I haven't gotten them yet The person below me saw a snake today

Dessert What's your favourite season?

Hi everyone! I just wanted to wish all my fellow Americans a: Happy Thanksgiving!!! May you all find countless things for which to be thankful for today and may you spend some time with the people you love! (and happy Thursday if you don't happen be American ) -Kevin

What a lovely thread, Jamie! First off let me start by saying I think you're a wonderful person So Thanksgiving...Hmmm. Well I've definitely never seen it as a religious holiday either. In fact I think it's specifically a secular holiday. For instance last week at church the minister was saying one of the reasons he enjoys Thanksgiving so much is because it's a holiday on which he actually doesn't have to work! Anyway I don't exactly dislike the holidays, but they're not particularly special for me either. I have an excessively small family, and even at best there were only ever 6 of us that would gather for the holidays, and I tended to see the other 5 pretty often anyway. Plus, I dislike holiday food, especially Thanksgiving food (Christmas food isn't great either since it's pretty similar, but Thanksgiving food is worse ). I'm a vegetarian so I don't eat turkey anyway, but even when I wasn't I didn't like it (well of course not liking very many meats to begin with is why I became a vegetarian so...). Plus, despite the fact that I tend to like most veggies and breads it's like they've purposely selected all the ones I dislike to be traditional Thanksgiving fare! Don't get me started on how gross I think stuffing, yams, cranberry sauce, and cornbread is! Even dessert, always a highlight for me , isn't very good because it's usually some kind of pie, and I'm just not that big on pie, and really even though I'm a big dessert enthusiast all I really like is chocolate and lemon flavoured desserts and those aren't very common around the holidays . So anyway, everyone else is talking about being stuffed after the holiday meal and I'm usually going home hungry! But forget food, the think that really sucks is that despite the fact that there's only 6 of us if you get us all together in one room for several hours people are going to be pissed at each other. My grandfather and I always try to stay out of it and never get mad at anyone and are rarely the recipient of all the ill-will, my mom usually stays out of it too, but I tell ya get my grandmother, aunt, and cousin together and watch the fireworks! Of course it also sucks that for days leading up the holiday everyone was bitching about it. Anyway, that was when I was a kid. Nowadays my aunt and cousin just refuse to visit for the holidays, and actually I can seldom make it in myself. So we're all pretty much just on our own. Which in many ways is better because then we avoid a great deal of the pre-holiday stress, a whole buncha fighting, and I don't have to go hungry! (I just eat the same things I eat any other day). Tomorrow/in a few hours will actually be much better than usual. I'm not going "home", but my mom and I are going to meet at about the halfway mark at a casino, and visit and gamble a bit. It's what we did for Christmas last year too. It's much nicer. So anyway, I don't really get excited about the holidays anymore and they're usually a really small deal, in fact this'll be the first Thanksgiving in about 3 or 4 years that I didn't spend alone pretending it was like any other day (except that everything is closed and none of my friends are around ). Anyway, unfortunately I think I wrote a fairly depressing post too Sorry Jamie, I think this really is an excellent idea and a great thread...I'm just not really the person to come to for holiday spirit Take care everyone and I hope you all have a great holiday! (I really am looking forward to my non-traditional one tomorrow!) -Kevin

WOW! And to think I had to get up in the night to lower the AC because it was too hot! Awww, we'll miss you, Beasty! Have an awesome time and good luck with competitions!! -Kevin

Oh my! I do feel a bit a foolish now! Thanks, TSL! Thank you so much, DS!
