  1. I saw it as more...uplifting. That a little girl can see past all the nonsense and be thankful for donation of a heart. I've known transplant recipients who thought it was their right, not a supreme gift. This little girl sees it for just that!

    Chapter 11

    We all knew that Zach/Will were headed to heartache eventually. The moment an agent was hired I knew it would come sooner than later. I do have to agree with some of the comments however and wonder how many of the "rumors" are real and how many were invented by the agent and/or Zach's parents. Having worked in a high school environment for years, I cannot believe those sorts of rumors were running around not just one, but two schools and never got back to the boys in any way. There would have been all sorts of horrid happenings from verbal abuse up to possible beat downs in the locker rooms. Happened to Robbie, didn't it? Brad, Wade, Matt and Will have a lot of shit to work through. Therapists will be busy this summer I am sure. Perhaps they should organize a huge group session with all the associated therapists involved. A retreat weekend so to speak. As usual sir, you did not fail to rivet me to the screen. Thank you.
  3. College Textbooks if you can hook up with upper classmen who had good grades. The highlights and margin notes are invaluable! Cars? I get leery of buying them used - if they were so great why did the first owner sell it?
  4. And not just the dudes.

    Fantastic as usual. Things were quiet for too long, a blow up was inevitable!

    Spiders

    Orcs usually leave behind such a nasty odor too. So glad Rath had better hygiene!
  7. Well done sir. Of course that may just give Joanne more fuel for her prompts!

    Spiders

    I have been known to take pics of pretty webs. I just hate the one industrious spider that builds his web between the radio antenna in my jeep and the mailbox post every damn night. Can't see it when leaving for the farm before dawn!
  9. Your brain at 2 am makes more sense than most people I know when at their best. I identify as straight since I have never felt any sort of sexual attraction to another woman, but that does not change my assertion that it is the person you are attracted to. If the feelings are there you will make it work with whatever anatomical bits are involved.

    May I ask what sort of competition it was? Your initial blog sounded like martial arts to me, yet Percy was speaking of working with your horse. I didn't see some of the injuries you listed as particularly detrimental to show competition unless you are in the 4 foot classes.
  11. Sometimes a little slow is better - you can iron out the glitches along the way so there are no setbacks.
  12. LOL Where I keep my horse they are what we shovel out of the barn, altho they are also coming to mean treats for the horses as well.
  13. Currently it's "Jeep" an '09 Wrangler soft top, and yes it has the 17"wheels. Going backwards there is "Silver", a '97 Jeep Grand Cherokee that wings now drives, a mini van that got rearended three times and I sold as fast as I could when the insurance insistedon fixing 11k worth of damage the last time, then a '89 Dodge pick up and befor that a '84 Dodge Ramcharger.
  14. I am thinking its onions fried in the resultant drippings from a couple of slices of bacon. Hubbies German grandma always did her onions, and a lot of other things, that way. There always seemed to be a mason jar of bacon drippings in the fridge for just such jobs.
  15. Very similar to mom's version - we sauteed onions and left out the peas though ( other wise dad and bro ended up picking em out and piling em on the edge of the plate) Mom also would add the gravy darkener type stuff ( there are lots of brands) that are basically caramelized veggie juice. Adds a nice flavor and it doesn't look pale on the dish.

    Why are people so stupid?

    Stupidity unfortunately is forever, at least ignorance can be fixed. Even if Claire's sister was totally indiscreet, there should never have been such an uproar. A quiet word with someone on the ward who then whispered to mom would have solved the problem. Maybe the over-reacting parents needed a tension release.
  17. How about Parmesan Crusted chicken? Sorry I don't have accurate measurements to give you - I cook to taste Mix about 1/4 mayo, about 1/4 c Parmesan cheese of your choice, garlic powder, salt and black pepper together. Add enough bread crumbs to make it thick and easy to spread. Spread onto chicken breasts or cutlets that have been patted dry. ( It sticks better) Place on baking sheet and into a 350*F(177*C) oven for approximately 20 minutes. The surface should be a pretty golden brown and the chicken firm but still moist. Cooking time will vary based on how thick the pieces are. These amounts will crust three breasts sliced into 6 thinner pieces or pounded out to the desired thickness.
  18. and it doesn't work and play well with others! Had to get a newer printer because my perfectly fine old printer doesn't have an appropriate drive software update.
  19. Sounds like exactly what we all went thru with '95, & '98
  20. The way things are right now DMD is basically a death sentence. If this drug has shown no harmful side effects yet, the FDA may be needlessly delaying treatment that could make a huge difference. They tend to error to the side of caution because so many meds don't show their real dangers for years after approval. (The diet drug that caused heart damage years later comes to mind.) But if the children who suffer from DMD don't have the years for the additional trials, which may not show the ultimate dangers anyway, what is the point? Perhaps if the petition gets denied the parents can get the boy enrolled in one of the clinical trials?

    Springtime

    LOL I could never get the silly eggs to balance, equinox be damned! I must have had unbalanced eggs or something.

    Springtime

    The way I was taught to balance the egg is actually not dependent on the equinox letting them balance. The one showed me put down a little pile of salt - settled the egg into it till it stood, then used a soda straw to gently blow most of the salt away, leaving the little bit unseen keeping the egg upright.
  23. Do you really want to read that laundry list DDK? Nah - I am not ready to hug Matt yet but I do see him finally pulling his head out of his ass. I have to agree with you wholeheartedly. If one is screwing around - you don't really have him/her - you are just one of his/her harem. Is Matt starting to mature? I think so but time will tell. Would he be my first choice for a chaperon for the boys? NOPE NOPE NOPE.
  24. From my review: Now - as for having him (Matt) chaperon Will and Zack...does anyone else see this as a recipe for disaster?

    Chapter 6

    I'm not sure I am seeing Matt making the huge improvements most of the others seem to see, but I do give him credit. It is nice to see him actually seeing what is happening rather than just believing everything will go back the way it was. He still has a lot of growing to do if he and Wade are to have any chance at a future after grad school, and I really do think time away from each other will help that. Now - as for having him chaperon Will and Zack...does anyone else see this as a recipe for disaster?
