    Chapter 15

    I'm pleased to see that some of the consequences I predicted from the Navigator dedication have come to pass. I'm glad Brady refuses to say anything about Silas, his instincts are good. While Silas may be OK with the dedication, particularly if it means he and Ian will reconnect with Emma, I'm certain Silas wouldn't want his story blasted all over the internet unless it was his own decision in order to expose his old church and their stupid ways and raise awareness on this matter. (sort of what you're doing here too) Good plot twist on Theo and very believable reactions from all involved. I guess Emma must have told Tim why she wanted to see the Demons and that she couldn't wait. Probably why he decided to take her to them before the concert, which is unusual, right ?

    Chapter 45

    LOL, Rod just made a huge mistake. He must have forgotten Helena's warning about not pissing off a whole football team. I almost feel sorry for him, but on the other hand I'm gonna love imagining his face when he finds Todd, Ty and Paul looming over him on Liam's birthday demanding an explanation for having threatened Neil. I have faith in Neil finding a way to tell Liam, but I guess the difficulty is whether he believes Doug is behind this threat or not. An easy way out could be telling Clarissa during their coffee chat - except Liam joins then for that now, doesn't he? Oh and we never found out what Clarissa wanted to talk with Neil about. You're very clever by the way, having Rod and Doug put the worst possible spin on every little detail. Such as Neil not having mentioned Liam's name, which we know was for good reasons - and I bet if he had, then the idiots would have grumbled about Four-Dork making it even more public that Liam was associated with a 'loser'. Neil simply can't win either way. But I guess that's what prejudice and unreasonable hate is all about.
  3. Yep, that's the one. I love it when Jon exposes the stupidity and hypocrisy of Fox News and other media. This example was awesome.

    Chapter 14

    You know the most telling thing of all: Silas falls asleep with the thought of having a new home and I bet he sleeps for several hours and wakes up more rested than he has felt since he left the band. I was impressed once more with Drake's intelligence and ability to face facts and do what needs to be done - even if it will be painful. I loved the idea of Silas thinking only of the band having success and being delighted for his friends before he realizes the song is about him. That was very clever of you.
  5. Did any of you see the Jon Stewart show which featured the story about Caitlin? The part I found most interesting and also hilarious was where he documented the media slamming Jenner with the sort of put-downs and double standards usually perpetrated on women only.
  6. It's still the 12th, so Tillykke med fødselsdagen from Denmark

    Chapter 1

    Ahh that's sad. But at least they both know one other person who feels the same. And hopefully that bust was the end of Tessa going along with Nikki's silliness.

    Ha 3rd For once it wasn't Jonah creating drama. I'm with Carlos, except I wanted to kick Rome's ass.

    Boy River

    Loved having more Ben and Rush, even though the circumstances were sad. Maybe Ben can tip off the prosecuters so they know which questions to ask. But I guess the case will fall apart without the boy as witness.

    Chapter 3 Don't

    Poignant is the word I'm looking for. Beautiful is another. Calmly logical, yet devasting acknowledgement of loss and the need for a clean cut rather than lingering pain. That I can understand.
  11. I bet most of your readers go directly to a new chapter from Notifications or from the New Updates list. I know I do, but today I took time to look at the Chapter List again and once more admire the interplay between Titles, Chapter Description and Content. I love the subtle word play and the hints in the one line chapter descriptions - and I'm totally envious, because I want to do something similar in my stories, but I can't. Try as I might I cannot come up with anything remotely close to your awesome titles and one-liners. I heartily recommend everyone else to check them out. As to the chapter itself I have one comment: Michael (and Kendall) know better than to do anything bordering blackmail (or is it exhortion?). But this is where Janine comes in handy. After Michael has told Candy he will fight her for custody if she doesn't let him have access to the child, Janine can point out that Candy risks publicity if she refuses him. "And what would your dad think of you if all this comes out in the open?"

    Couples

    Hmm Mikey needs a good dose of Jay sensibility so he can become less sensitive to imagined insults. But the good part was it brought Denny and Greg closer. It made me sad all over Again and I wish Denny and Greg had bonded as boyfriends with a happier moment as the opening gambit, but hopefully they will progress to joint happines now. I laughed like mad, when Greg slammed the door on Jay and Mikey making out. Ooops.
  13. I guess I find it hard to understand a woman (or a man) who would end everything based on one such instance. Repeated or prolonged liasons with others, yes, but this... However, I respect that most people find it unacceptable. Also it seems he knew beforehand that this was the case, and therefore the outcome was logical.
  14. Just be glad I didn't do it in Danish.
  15. I'm glad you're back Eagle-eyes and your sharp mind has once again discerned a few important points. I think Eric was reasonably sure Rob would keep his Word about giving them an hour. However, after that... And yes snapping would have been a very real possibility. Nelson may have lots of good intentions about taking things slow, but we'll see whether he can live up to them.

    Chapter 1

    I guess it wasn't only full circle for Tommy and Archie, but also for Archie's dad. He made a mistake when his wife died, and he abandoned his son for work. When he finally tried to help, he made Arcie feel even more rejected. It's almost a miracle Archie made it back to the potential he had before, but meeting Tommy at the right moment did the trick. Of course it wouldn't have happened if Arche hadn't had the strength to sober up when he did. I'm glad they both waited till they were at equal terms before becoming more than friends. Wonderful comeback, I hope this means you'll be posting more stories.
  18. Darren needs to think before he open his mouth and says stupid things just to be polite or nice. But at least babysitting Katie prevented them from being caught in the act.

    Story

    That was depressing and uplifting at the same time. I've read New Brother, and I can remember the main charater (whom I despised utterly in spite of your heroic and brilliant effort to make him understandable and redeemable) being told Craig's story. It was one of the better moments in New Brother and I'm glad I finally managed to read Craig's story, even though it made me sad.

    Story

    Out of likes for now, but I loved this story. I'm a SF fan including Asimov's Foundation series and the psychological group dynamic of space travel has always fascinated me. This was a particularly clever and interesting take on the matter. And Sam getting his reward for all the hard work made me

    Story

    LOL, very clever - but of course still tragic. But at least Justice was served.

    End of the World

    This was a sad story for humans, but for nature and the rest of the inhabitants of planet Earth, which we are slowly destroying with our insane need to breed, it was actually rather cool.

    Family First

    I've read this before and liked it a lot, but forgot to comment. Finally a politician one can respect. And it's even more apt when considering the recent embarrassment of those US (Republican) politicians (with or without presidential ambitions) when they was confronted with the question about accepting a wedding invitation from a gay friend. I love to watch Jon Stewart expose the stupidity and bigotry of the anti-gay US fractions. In Denmark there is a tradition the members of Folketinget (Parliament) are not required to follow any official party line in ethical or emotional matters where personal beliefs, morals, or convictions are in play, such as legal abortion, same sex marriage, religion, IVF fertilization, and a few other issues. In principle the constitution says MPs should always vote according to their personal convictions and only have to explain to voters (who can get rid of them next election), but in pratice they comply with the party policy. If they really can't, they leave the party to become unaffiliated or join another party (we have 8-10 different parties). But not in the cases where 'the ethical call' is made.

    Story

    I'm not sure John returns the feelings about 'wonderful cousins' LOL. Now I'm wondering how their parents have coped and how those boys have managed to survive. I hope their uncle and aunt keep the letter and let the boys read it again at age twenty, simply to enjoy seeing them cringe. And they can work on the farm a whole summer to pay back the losses.
  25. so glad you liked it. Maybe the slow, sensible approach to sex is something Scandinavian ? Possibly because sex has not been forbidden and dirty since before the sixxties, so we have a more natural and relaxed attitude? I'd like to think we're generally more rational and cool here, but I fear this does not apply to Danish teens. At least not when it comes to sensible behavior about alcohol.
