    Leaving readers wanting more is fairly common. It should tell you that we like what you wrote. If you feel the need to add to the story that's great if not that's okay too. I once wrote and posted small bits of poetry on GA. A change in migraine meds put my muse to sleep and I've yet to shake him awake.

    So you put him on the Court, excellent. Not the end to the Liston's visit one would hope but very necessary and it explains much.

    I told you there was something odd about that cat.
  4. Hi. For the most part yes, thanks, though I've an achy head that's got me hiding in the dark in my room. I think the double posting may be site related not specific to anyone's computer.

    I like these two already.
  9. Well, you've answered my query as to how you would continue your informational dialog once the interview was complete. It was simple really, just invite a former president and first lady to dinner. I am very much enjoying this storyline. It provides a lot of insight into CJ and Owen's thoughts and planning for the future while remaining light and entertaining. Now about that slight cliffie ending ...
  10. G'den y'all. It has been a wet morning. There's a cold front on way bringing us a another few days of unseasonable cold (Some say a gift from the Canadians but me, I don't believe it. The Canadians are such nice people I can't imagine them trying to freeze mum's toes.) with frost and freeze warnings. The temp has dropped 5°f from when I woke this morning. My head aches and my left eye is being inordinately troublesome. I've been spending the morning hiding in my darkened room listening to soft ambient music. I got up to eat a couple slices of rye toast for brekkie to put something in my stomach so I could take more meds. Oh, and for the mid day eye drops. Hope the rest of you are having a better, brighter day.
  11. Thanks Page. I've liked those suits since I first saw them years ago, plus, the Pipes and Drums were wearing plaid. What's more is they're singing Caledonia, Scotland if you will. This version also features an adorable teenage Damian McGinty. While Celtic Thunder still performs this early grouping no longer exists, most have left, one is deceased.
  12. Made with authentic Guinness beef.
  13. 90% is some really dark chocolate.
  14. Happy St Patrick's to you too.

    Political Party

    CJ in his element. Wonder where Marco had lunch and if he ever returns to Forbes Grille. I'm liking the interview format for these early chapters. They set a relaxed but informative tone. Now that CJ and Oz's part is complete I'm curious as to how you carry on. I think Pam is afraid of CJ because while he will respect her as Owen's mum he is uniquely unlike anyone she knows. She was/is so used to correcting/ bossing her sons that she expected that to carry over to CJ. Instead she has encountered a force of nature who will tolerate her to a point before he unleashes. The fact CJ is waiting so as to not tarnish Liebe's time with her grandparents is kind. Not sure if Oz is amused or concerned by CJ's constraint. Either way Owen trusts his husband. More please.
  16. Glad you were able to enjoy a walk in the sunshine. It wasn't that long ago the turtles were out sunning themselves in the unseasonable warmth. Now they're all hiding because it has turned unseasonably cold. Every time I see them I am reminded of you.
  17. Hi bro ... Still a bit chilly for wearing speedos, air temp 51/10°, water temp 62/16°.
  18. Awww, that's so cute.
  19. Whines, stomps his feet, throws tantrums but he does not beg ... often.
  20. Is that the same planet occied by the Little Prince? Are you the dancing man?
  21. NEWS BREAK: God and Emperor Says Short Legs Required Him to Have a Five Year Head Start in Race for KPOP Stars.
  22. He needs to speak Spanish to talk to the kpop boys?
  23. I do not hoard them. I share my eye candy, permitting them free range to wander as they will. Just DO NOT get handsy with them, that's simply rude and disrespects their personal space. Nor do I brand or visibly mark them as some might. The tracking chip implants are small and innocuous things. I have never made an attempt to claim one of your kpop boys, they are undoubtedly pretty to look at but are not mine.
  24. Oh, I'm sure that's the reason. Her recipe calls for more liquid in the filling than ours, so it will be comparatively looser. The recipes we have just use, molasses, water and baking soda. The dry ingredients also absorb some moisture during baking helping the filling set. There is a similiar pie, Montgomery pie, that uses an egg in the filling. Montgomery pie adds lemon to the filling and has a more cake like topping. It's not as widely available as Shoo fly pie? Perhaps, because the ingredients were historically less readily available, particularly in frugal Plain households.
