    Wings regularly gets calls from her grandmother to come fix her %@#$ing TV again. (Yes that is exactly what she says.) She just does not seem to understand you cannot change the channel with the up and down buttons on the TV itself you have to use the ones on the cable box or the remote.

    Happy Birthday PUP! I would suggest a fun filled day, but I happen to know the reason you are offline and not around at the moment is because today is MOVING DAY! Enjoy your new home and congratulations!

    Bottom line is these ( Rob's, Eric's and Nelson's, and to a point even Jasper's) are YOUR stories to tell. Tell them how ever you see fit! There is a show on reality tv here called Deadliest Catch that chronicles crab boats in the Bearing Sea. Advice that was given to one of the skippers by the boat's owner would apply here as well. The man was told "Don't let the crew run the boat."

    I have to agree with Carlos. There are just so many ways to actually stand up in front of a crowd and say "I'll love you forever" before you start repeating what hundreds of others have said. I much preferred seeing their private thoughts before the ceremony. I loved CJ's toast as well!

    When aristocracy, pregnancy and legitimacy are all involved I guess the faster the better! Personally I will not be convinced Alex is actually the father until after DNA testing proves it!

    Unfortunately with a lot of public assistance programs there is absolutely no incentive to get off of the rolls. Yes, unemployment insurance is limited, but welfare, food stamps, and many other programs are not. In fact some are administered in such a way as to discourage you from trying to better yourself. If you do find a part time job your food stamps can and often does get reduced by the amount you make. A young lady I know on permanent disability due to birth defects has her state check docked by percentages. Make so much, lose this percent. When at the lower end of a tier her percentage of reduction outstrips the amount she made, so she ends up living on less money. With the physical exhaustion her disability causes on top and why should she go out and work when to stay home and comfortable pays her more? The same applies to things like drug rehab programs. The methadone programs in our state are well administered and supervised. It has been very successful in getting people off of heroin. But there is no requirement to get off of the methadone. Several years ago I needed to research the program to get a union member into treatment. At the time approximately half of the methadone patients had been on the program for 5 years or more, and a goodly portion of those had found a way to abuse the methadone, in essence getting social services to get them high.

    I didn't say don't pester him, just not to expect it to work!

    Be patient guys! I'm a hungry bird too but we have to remember Tim does have a day job. Like most of us, life sometimes results in writing taking a back seat. Sasha and Cole will tell you, sometimes I can get several chapters a day for multiple authors done, others it takes a couple days for one chapter. Depends on how crazy life gets.

    Tis a mutual thing - we are a co-dependent bunch! At least with the gang I work with!

    I'm a big proponent of checking facts and distances and the like. While editing I often have several tabs open to mapsites, search engines, and anything else I can think of as a way to check facts and numbers. LOL Sometimes I drive my authors to drink when I tell them they can't have traveled that far in the time they listed! I thoroughly enjoyed your story, and look forward to your next. I am sure during the knuckle wrapping last weekend you were told about the post dating system. Once you work out how to do it you could upload an entire story and have it posting for weeks and weeks. Just don't try and update a chapter before it posts, no matter how much you want to eliminate a mistake! That messes up the timing.

    Happy Birthday Bro! May your skies be bright, your helmet be ventilated and the streets be clear of sand and debris! Go enjoy your day on your bike!

    Was a nice diversion as I sat here on hold getting insurance quotes for the business!

    Damnit! They need to read faster! ( And no comments about wolfie posting faster gang!)

    It's us who should be thanking you for a great story! Can't wait to see what your second story will be.

    While he is unable to really control it right now, Hel the little blue wolf must be able to interact with the physical world to some extent or he would not have the ability to pass through a wall yet not fall through the floor ( which he did at one point landing on the dinning room table if you recall!).

    LOL Sorry, I just couldn't resist. Just like the editor in me couldn't resist correcting the spelling of quote.

    Irrelevant??? IRRELEVANT?? How about "parts you are not responding to? LOL

    Ok - from what I read in this latest chapter, dad had the stroke, and did not make it through the night. I remember what it was like the day my dad had his stroke. Initially you are totally absorbed in all the decisions that need to be made pretty much on the spot. Being a doctor himself and knowing just what the potential outcomes could be would only have added to Stephens stress levels. As such, I can understand not thinking about where he was supposed to have been with Anton until things wound down, by which time Anton's phone was on its last photon. Should Stephen have tried harder to reach Anton in the days following the Medical Ball/Dad's death fiasco ? Yes. A couple of words - "Dad died"- in that first message would have solved the entire issue. Should Anton have answered the messages? Yes. Actually knowing as opposed to guessing is always preferable, even if the outcome was the worst case and Stephen did want to end things. Should Martin have kept his mouth shut? At that dinner in Wimbledon yes, after Stephen's dad died? NO! He put the breakup idea in Anton's head in the first place and that seed grew when Stephen missed their date. Had Martin called and mentioned the death it again would have solved the entire issue. Don't get this next comment wrong Iomax, I love this story and would love to see many aspects of it expanded. But the boys, Anton, Stephen and Martin, are all acting like...well boys. Teenage boys who have no clue how to keep a relationship on an even keel. After having had to be the one to explain everything to Anton, I can totally see Gallagher going home and smacking Martin upside the head.

    Tim wouldn't tell anyway!

    There is no explaining crazy!

    Well why didn't you say so! Anything by Sasha Distan or Mann Ramblings is great as are Cole Matthew's stories. Cards on the Table and Song and Dance by Headstall Summer by Carlos Hazday and his shorts, some of which turned into a longer story. Clueless Camping by Timothy M Uninvited Guest by Iomax61 And of course anything by Mark Arbour. Between that and what some of the others mentioned it should keep your lips moving for a goodly bit!

    Second date was when Anton gave him the list of five things. Somehow after that was said I can't see anyone being brave enough to reopen a barely healed wound of their own to say "Guess what - they accused me of killing my lover". In fact that is going to fall into the category of unpleasant surprises no matter how or when Stephen tells him the truth.
