Like shaped charge fireworks, do they have those paintballs that will burst in handprint shapes so he gets the slap on that cheek? Slapped right there on page 12!

This is why it’s still more than coincidence that Rick was requested to be assigned there; who truely requested or wanted Rick there? Is it so they can continue his mental torture or was Rick the intented target but the killer likes this torture as a kind of murderous foreplay? I agree that puts Shane and the Martin family at risk, it likewise, I think Tom may have given this thought a lot of consideration over the years; he may be better prepared than one would expect, and I think he is already protective of his charges as they are already becoming family. His question and concern over Casey was touching, as I think he already feels they need to take him into their fold too.

Ahhhh, but in a house of mirrors filled with those that do protest too much….how to identify the real maniacs. There’s a lot a truth to the ploy of keeping money flowing and lining the pockets of those on the gravy train. So the lone outsider is made to look a fool, as they all miss their gravy train and power. 😒 No one enjoys the unfortunate unsetting the apple cart, yet how else do you cull the bad apples 🍎.

I’ve long believed the outside influence has been passive. They invested heavily in…all you can eat buffets. They logic it’s easier to make everyone fat and passive, so a takeover is just a matter of changing signs 🪧. The response? There’s a special this Thursday with all you can eat snow crabs 🦀 and Friday they have lobster.

The highly effective trio, somewhat like that seen within the young version of the guys; but now with an older brother to school…oh dear.

No just simple Skeeter, but everyone called him Skid…Doer.

In concert! 🤣 Beautiful, beautiful, music , one can even whistle a bar or two 🎶, as the tone becomes darker and more ominous.

Yuck, he has more of a culture palate than eating gator bait. Just have a grand church function next to the swamp…then herd them to where they can be torn apart and remade…gator food, then meet their maker as the 💩 they are. 😈

Well, the good sheriff will get to see the crime scene I’m sure his good church used for Jane; too bad he wasn’t able to hang around, dangle above, that alligator and enjoy that sinking feeling of lunchtime blues…or should I say reds.

Indeed, the body count is mounting and with the same MO that haunts Rick. Poor Jimmy Tan, but it is confusing that both these latest victims were hardly known to Rick; one for minutes and the other for a day. It’s also strange that these murders didn’t follow Rick while he was at the academy…or at least based on what we know so far. Poor Rick, a lingering nightmare that both haunts him but gives him hope to fulfill his graveyard promise to Martin; and himself. Hopefully the guilty feeling of being responsible somehow doesn’t cloud Rick’s thinking as it is hard to not think you’re indirectly responsible for someone’s death. Hope Ricky’s will take another look at that yearbook as it seems the focus of the others on Martin is foretelling; is there another person lurking on the sidelines unnoticed in that photo or is the resemblance with Rick’s stalker requiring a closer look based on other life influences that may have change the perpetrator’s appearance. Meanwhile, The bonding with the boys is accelerating with Tom, Beth and especially Rick. The uncanny resemblance of Shane, reminding them all of Martin is probably a good thing as it helps them see that his youth and spirit can still be embraced through continued life. The boys seem to be embracing their own memories of being carefree youth again and that may be just what they all need; Tom has outright admitted that and Beth was nearly admitting the same.

We’ll get there…

So most of what you weren’t wearing was scandalizing?

Paint balls might come in maroon, then orange could be the new maroon rather quickly.

A room full of condoms and orangutans dressed in white jackets especially made with long sleeves to fit them??

A helping hand?

No, hanging it.

A fallen angel, maybe just stumbling along? Your image doesn’t show in the mirror? Exactly! 🤣

A world body filled with political appointees, many by oppressive dictators of decades long regimes, and you expect diplomacy to be representative of the world peoples? Likewise, some of the loudest and most frequently critical voices are from those same countries, which also happen to be non-contributors to any of the aid funds for people or countries in crisis. Hmmm 🤔, yeah it’s like listening to The View talk show, no real solutions, just criticizing everyone and everything else, while spewing shallow clichés without depth as guaranteed solutions. Yup, that bridge to Hawaii will be safer and better for the environment; a solar powered magnetic levitation bullet train that will also serve as a homeless shelter.

I dust my car out regularly, I let the windows down alternately while driving a few miles at 55MPH, perhaps twirling a towel over the dash too as I’m thorough; upon my return home I shake out the floor mats.

That was before twerking was refined, and flossing was a separate maneuver.

I played doctor for a good number of years, and I wasn’t really much different from all these other doctors that admit to just running a practice. So I’m trustworthy too…

Huh, @Jason Rimbaud doesn’t really have an opinion…until he does, but then when he does…he really doesn’t, so then it’s kinda…

Oops, I commented before reading your quote; interesting commonality though. 😆

Ironically both labeled, while one maybe somewhat kinda sorta earned that label and the other definitely more understanding how easy those labels stick as she seems a pure victim.
