Wow...how did you come up with that pic??

Looking forward to seeing Pierre's side of the story and the results of the bloodwork, I wonder if our caged soon to be felons, will sing when they realize the trouble they are in... I think it might be time for Colin and Armand to move into an apartment at the home, the best cure for loneliness!!!

Hey @weinerdog and @Lee Wilson, leave the bad prognostication to me...that's my department!!!! Jeepers folks...do ya really think there were some hidden surprises in this chapter??? It's freaking Florida...the state that gives the 900 years the Dark Ages lasted in Europe a good name and a fun time!!! Now, could Derek go back to work, not as an EMT, but either assigned to station duties or answering calls? Of course, we don't have a clue if he's qualified for any other well paying job, then toss in it will be 2nd or 3rd shift...how's that gonna work out long term??? minion detective images - Bing images

Fess up Terry...how in the heck did you do this??

I'm surprised that the parents never asked for pictures of the canoe trip, after all every phone these days is a camera...and so much more...

Is the noose tightening???

Ethan and Arik can see into the immediate future, family farms are slowly dying at the hands of the larger cooperate farms. Knowing this you can rest assured they will find a way to not only survive, but thrive!!

O my goodness....first on page 2 @weinerdog!!!

Me waiting for this chapter, then holding off till supper so I could sit back and enjoy!!! Me after reading this chapter... Now it goes without saying dear author...we can wait while you recuperate...I commiserate with you, I have a nasty chest cold and it's been a minute, so I am off to the Doc's in the morning...

I'm concerned there might be a relapse and as @weinerdog noted, could the comingling produce a bun in the oven?

The following has me worried... Damian grunted, “Any problems with press or unwanted visitors.” “Russ reckoned not; they’ve never had problems in the past.”

Thanks, I truly appreciate your comments!

O look boys and girls, @weinerdog, @Mrsgnomie, @chris191070, number 92, rising faster than a bullet!! Ok all you haters...I loved this freaking chapter...using my prodigious power of, psychotic psychic prognostication, neither Corbin, Caleb, and Asa will be going home empty handed...or at least in one case guest arrivals shortly after they return home... “That sounds like a great idea. Dante asked if he could talk to me after dinner. I think the kids are desperate for adult role models.” “Hmm, I’m not sure how good of a role model I can be. I hope they aren’t disappointed when we return to the States.” Something heavy dropped deep in Caleb’s stomach at that thought. Is the following jury tampering?? if it is...I'm buying what is being sold... Thinking of family made him focus on Vann. It still didn’t sit right with him that they had to leave Montana so abruptly. During his last conversation with Silas, the old shifter helped him see how the pros outweighed the cons. Caleb had made up his mind and decided to come clean to his son and let the chips fall where they may. Now, that would have to wait. What could, hummm...possibly go wrong???? Hmm, reconnaissance in Russia... what can go wrong?? dana carvey church lady images - Search Images (bing.com)

Thank you my friend, Pay attention to Pietro, in his case still waters run deep!

I can't imagine we've heard the last of the wicked witch from, well you know where... Toys...you go Charlie!!!

My...my...my...I think we forget that Mhairi is going through a difficult separation with her husband, we have clashing with someone deeply rooted in the teachings of the Brethren, and a wife disgusted by the bed hopping of a pedophile husband...at the same time she is finding out that the Brethren isn't espousing a life she wants to live. She's trying to find her footing in a world gone sideways, and that's before she finds out her parents, who are supposed to cherish, nuture, and love her, do anything but...they cheat her and her brother out of a rightful inheritance, finding out her brother was different, that difference having him leaving the house once school is out...not on his own accord...and the last lie told that he just upped and disappeared, Leaving Mhairi alone and trapped in a world determined to control her and tie her ever closer to her husband and parents...It isn't difficult to understand her frustrations as she tries to become an independent person... Had Owain thought this thru a bit better, a donation from an anonymous benefactor enabling Joe to attend the summer course may have been the best way to go...but then there wouldn't be a reason for my lengthy rant... And speaking of brick shithouses, can't wait to watch the stuff fly when Colin comes out...just where will it all stick???? brick outhouses images - Search Images (bing.com)

There won't be any doubt on identifying the killer, either by looks or the pinky ring...as to sleeping With dad is indefinably postponed...triple yuck!!

You have me blushing kind sir and I truly appreciate your comments!

Well...the die is cast and Jake has the right of it. The only danger I can sense is if someone finds out about Greg's friends and tries to use them against Greg...

I believe the complexity of the human brain can never be duplicated. It stands to reason that artificial intelligence, while capable of complex reasoning, will never be able to, as @Al Norris states, to function on the basis of curiosity. AI will always function according to a complex set of rules, programming, and methods. It will take some doing, and I can't see it happening, to function extemporaneously... Now...when is the next stasis cycle and how long will it last? What of earth, what news do we have on conditions? What of the other Arks?

Thanks ☺️

While every legal nuance and complexity is exhausted...I've been saying it all along...the sperm donor is only doing this because there is a scintilla of a monetary gain...the real hoot would be that there is in fact, funds/property left to the boys but it is left in such a manner that crap for brains, will never be able to touch a single red cent of it...while somehow losing in the courts and ends up owing his legal representation lots o bucks!!!

The truth will out considering the veracity of the following... “I object, Your Honor. It is still the Respondent's stance that the Petitioner's burden was not met. His exhibits are nothing but hearsay and speculation, and they failed to meet the strongest burden of the three.” “Your objection is noted and overruled, Counsel. The Court is sticking to its findings as of this moment. Mr. Clarke, the Court is ordering you and your client to submit all the original documents and sources, including but not limited to any and all electronic devices from which your exhibits were created.” “Your Honor,” Billy interrupted, “the Respondent would also like to add a warrant to the service providers for any records they may have on this matter. Given the revelations by Edward Snowden, we can assume the service providers have access to these records, as well.” “Your request is granted, Mr. Parker,” the Judge said. Billy gave a small glance at the table next to him and was pleased that his request caused a small amount of anxiety.

I suspect a full recovery and with the assistance of those who care that Charlie and Michael will land on their feet. This exemplifies the difference between those who care and do, contrasted against those who rail and demean...
