Happy Birthday Aaron! Vance

YAYYYYY! I'm SO happy to hear that, GREAT news!

Get well soon dan!! Vance

Wow it

YAYYYYYYYY I CAN'T WAIT!!

WOnderful? More like the most titillating erotic experience your mouth will ever encounter!! I'm not much of a baker so I don't have much to add but I did have to comment on Sharon's INCREDIBLE SUCCULENT MELT IN YOUR MOUTH cookies!

Just to update those who have been very patiently waiting I have finished writing the last chapter of Unbreakable Faith and it's gone through it's first round of editing. Which means it should be up by the end of the week. I am VERY sorry it has taken so long, I am in the middle of another story which has been dancing around in my head for a month and I had a hard time pulling myself away from that one to finish up UF, It's not that I meant to abandon Ian, I really was thinking it was all done until I went back through the previous final chapter and realized it sucked as an ending. I know many of you wanted UF to be longer but I just can't give it the attention it deserves right now, I'm not one of the people that can switch from story to story. I'm hoping you will all be happy with the way things wrap up in the last chapter coming out this week. I'd also like to thank you all for reading it, I was so scared to post it but I realize I was being silly as you all seem to really love it. Hopefuly there won't be much wait for my next story that I'm now working on to start posting. BUT I do need to finish it before I start posting it but at the rate I'm going I still don't think it will be very long. Thanks to you all! Vance

HAPPY BIRTHDAY DAVID! I hope you have a great birthday! Vance

Well I just sent the next chapter off to Garyo to put up. I don't know when he'll do it because he doesn't have internet at home at the moment so I figure it should be up sometime tomorrow. I wanted to post this today though and explain before anyone reads it that this is NOT the last chapter. I went back to make changes to the chapter I already had and decided I didn't want to take anything out. So there will still be one more chapter after this one. I hope you all don't mind, hehehe. Thanks for your patience Vance

I thought the story was great, and I thought the ending was great. I just started reading this two days ago because I swore after DD that I wouldn't read a Dom story when it wasn't complete. He's a master at cliffhnagers! I'm darn glad I waited until it was complete otherwise I may have ended up where Oliver did at the end of the story, hehe. I liked the ending, because David got his freedom and Frank's last words were 'we have to get Oliver' which to me meant that Oliver would not be locked away in that place much longer. I don't believe David is evil incarnate, in fact I spent a lot of today wondering how i'd come out had I been locked in a well or 'cistern' for 9 days, knowing I was left there by my own parent to die. And that topped off a life that most people could never even fathom, to me David was victim of his life, he was taught to disregard it, to kill, what he did he always had Oliver's best interest at heart, Oliver, the one person that loved him. I don't disagree that David needed therapy, but he didnt' need prison. I'm happy he got away, and I'm content in the knowledge that Frank will get Oliver out of the institution.

Personally, and I don't know if this is wishful thinking or not, I think David was acting all along he wanted his father to believe he was on his side, he wanted his father to trust him enough to give him a gun. So he played the part. The evil son his father always wanted him to be. He'd lived with the guy 17 years and knew what he had to do to make his father beleive he was on his side. I don't believe for one minute that David had any intention of hurting Oliver or Frank. I believe he was acting the way he was to save them. Had Frank or Oliver jumped overboard when they first intended to Brian could have easily shot them, I believe that's why David stopped them. I also believe that when David was telling Frank that he had to take control he was trying to tell him that he wasn't listening to his father, that he was making it so he'd be in control, that it would be okay. David was known to be a bit cryptic what with the 'look deeper' statement he had made. I don't believe David's evil at all. I think his morals are basically good. But he doesn't know what he wasn't taught.

HAPPY BIRTHDAY ROSS You better have a great one!! You deserve it. Vance

Happy Birthday Jack I noticed your age too! You sure are articulate for a one year old. Happy 1st Birthday, I hope it's a great one.

Well I had a terrific Christmas! When I woke up yesterday morning I sneaked into the livingroom and found a Christmas tree (which I already knew was there) loaded with presents! Seeing's how Sam's such a night owl I still had to wait three hours to get to open anything but I busied myself making monkey bread and playing with my computer program where you can design your own house to keep my mind off not waiting for Sam at all and ripping open all my presents. Long about 8:30 I couldn't take it anymore and woke him up! He had said I could at 8 but I felt kinda guilty about waking him up so earlyl so I did the gallant thing and waited a whole extra half an hour. The next hour or so was a flurry of flying paper. Sam loved his XBox and the games I got, plus his movies and Season of Reno911 (if you haven't seen that show and love silly yet very funny shows you ought to check it out!) I got....*takes a deep breath* 2 seasons of Little House on the Prairie, 3 Seasons of Friends, 2 computer games I've really wanted, a new rotisserie, a lb of my favorite candy (that english toffee stuff coated in chocolate and nuts) a new popcorn popper, a $200 gift certificate to Amazon.com, a lava lamp which is distracting me as I'm trying to type this! I got more but I can't seem to remember it right now. We spent the morning and early afternoon here playing with my new stuff and I got my ass kicked at Xbox, no surprise there. At four we headed over to Sam's mom's house and had a delicious dinner of roast beef with all the fixings THEN we both got a surprise as she'd gotten us a brand new pillow top mattress, I've ALWAYS wanted one of those. There's a chance she may have realized that on our last shopping trip when I spent a considerable amount of time drooling over each and everyone in the furniture store we went to. So after a delicious desert of Chocolate log roll cake and some more visiting we came home, made up our new bed, christened it and I passed out from Christmas exhaustion, it's hard work getting all those presents! All that tearing open of presents, and all the smiling and being so happy, well it just wears a person right out! So yep that was my Christmas, one for the record books I'd say. Now I gotta go back to work I wish we had the day after Christmas off because I want more time to play with all my stuff. Oh also my cat got a fancy set of dishes for her food and water and a whole bag of treats so she had a happy Christmas too. I don't buy her any toys realy because her favorite things to play with are those rings that come off milk jugs and straws. I can buy a $5 dollar cat toy and she'd still prefer to play with a straw. Cept she does realy love the cat nip snake I bought her a couple months back, but that's just cause it makes her high. Well I guess that's all! I hope everyone else had a great Christmas too and that everyone has a great week this week!

MERRY CHRISTMAS I hope everyone has or had a GREAT Christmas! Vance

This song doesn't exactly encompass my life, but I heard it for the first time just the other day at work and it was one of those songs that really seems to hit home. I found it online just for this thread!! You can actually hear it here too. http://www.angelfire.com/nm/friendshippages/dontlaugh.html

Gift Cards! Though I've heard some people say gift certificates are impersonal, I don't believe it. Some people are just very hard to buy for and I think the best thing for them is a gift card, takes all the trouble out of them having to return something. OH and if it's real last minute you can go to Dunkin Donuts on Christmas day and pick one up!

Shrek 3!! COOL! I didn't know they were going to do a third one and I LOVED the first two best movies of their kind I have ever seen. Vance

Hey everyone, I didn't suspect and didn't ever want to make a post like this, but I'm afraid the last chapter of Unbreakable Faith is going to be a bit late. I'm not sure how long. Truth is, it's all written but as I was reading through the edits I realized it's not a very good last chapter, in fact chapter 15 would make a better last chapter than the actual last chapter. So I've decided to rewrite it. I'm not sure I'll get to it this weekend what with Christmas and all but I should be able to work on it next week, I promise to try and get it to you as soon as possible and I'm very very sorry about the delay. Thank You Vance

Check out Comicalities site, the story Gone From Daylight. It's excellent!

Okay I gotta pipe up with my own kitty story after hearing that! I was painting the kitchen a nice blue one day when my cat decides to run into the kitchen and right through the paint pan. Of course she keeps on running at the same time she's flicking her paws cause there's this weird stuffon them. so the more I chase after her the more she runs leaving the blue footprints everywhere she goes. So finally I smarten up stand in one place and call her to me. By then her face whiskers and LOTS of spots on the floor are covered in blue. I was able to get it all off but I think I laughed for a week after.

Happy Birthday Kitty I hope it's a great one! Vance
