    A Short Ride

    Eric sure had 'stupid' beaten into him. However, he shows us he is anything but stupid. I wonder what it will take to undo all that brainwashing he got, or if it's even possible to shake it all. He ran into a friendly trooper who should have been wiser, then into an unfriendly older lady. Oh well, more items to add to his list ...hehe. At least he's over the mountains. Maybe he'll find something good in the warm valleys. Good job Parker! Can't wait for more adventures!
  2. Thanks for reviewing Lisa! I think Tommy's mother has maybe drunk too much of the cool aid. I'd be freaked too, but Twoey is smack in the middle of discovering himself. Everybody says David is stringing Kathy along, but he's not gay (or so he says) and there's no reason for him not to be with Kathy, although I don't think he feels anything for her but sympathy, and of course the pressure from his future brother-in-law

    Alone 2

    A sad but nice chapter Wolfman! I wonder how Andrew and Dan are going to let Matt just return to the street? I know they probably don't want to have a teenager underfoot, but I'm guessing they're going to think of something. At least I hope they are! Can't wait for more!
  4. Thanks for the thoughts Parker. Of course you're right. We read of a tragedy in the paper but never think of how it affects so many people, and often so deeply. If Twoey survives he will have a different outlook I'm sure. Will he be afraid to love again? Hmmm. Maybe it's a good thing he lives with his counselor
  5. Thanks for the review CG! Yeah I cried a little too as I wrote this. Unfortunately I edited and rewrote it a thousand times, and each time brought a tear. I loved Danny and hated that he died. David's in a tough but necessary place right now. Maybe Dad will begin to see the light, we can only hope.

    Love Bites

    A wonderful chapter CG! Mikey's gonna be in for a weekend of surprises. I hope they get that FM radio installed. AM sounds like it wasn't very interesting then. Of course it's even worse now. It was sort of like FM today, all talk and commercials. Too bad they didn't have satellite. I really enjoyed Cal. We're learning a lot more about his personality and he seems absolutely perfect for Benny. Benny needs someone he's not afraid of intimidating, not to mention all the other extra advantages that comes with the Callie package. I wonder if they'll fit in at the barn. But that's for another chapter! Great work my friend!!
  7. At death, your unfulfilled dreams fade away. The alarm buzzed at 6:30 for my run. I smashed it off. There would be no run today. In fact, I probably only fell asleep an hour ago. I had cried all night. Cried until I couldn't understand how my body could still produce tears. At fifteen years old, your life is said to sprawl out before you. Many paths diverge from where you now stand. Each entices you with its own possibilities. Each frightens you with unknown dangers. Each confronts you with un

    Coming Out Story

    Wow! I can't believe I never saw this story before. But I'm all caught up now! Good thing you write so slowly (jk). You're building a pretty involved mystery for us MGK, and we were already invested in Davy from Chapter 1. A whiff of Francis and now here he is, with danger lurking and something he knows. Can't wait for more!

    Chapter 11

    Thanks Renee for a wonderful story. I'm happy it ended here. Maybe there can be future adventures the boys will get into, but it's certainly not necessary. The title actually says it all. Reece's choice. He made a good one!

    Roger

    He got to eat, got a few bucks and got a terrible flashback... Dad, Uncle Ray, bad times. I hope he can separate nightmare from reality, but today's experiences certainly won't help. The worry here is once he's done it, selling himself is now on the table if he is desperate, Sad times for Stefan/Eric.
  11. Haha! OMG Robbie's managed to get himself in over his head in such a short time! Nathan has to know and Doug suspects and now we have Fran and the naughty notewriter too. I'm sure he never, in his wildest imagination, thought Canada would present him with this much drama! A great chapter Dodger! I can't wait to see how this is all going to unravel
  12. Lovely Tim! It's only happened to me once (with a person) I enjoyed your poetic description, as it brought back that memory quite vividly.

    Alone 1

    A good start Wolfman! Like Tim, I'm looking forward to seeing where this goes. It could go anywhere ...hehe But I'm sure there are plenty of adventures ahead for Matt. It's probably a good thing he's in shape. On to Chapter 2!
  14. Thanks Parker and you're sure right about Twoey. Too bad, as he was just getting his act together. The suspense won't last too long ...next few chapters are on their way in rapid fire.
  15. Thanks for the prod CG! Actually the next four chapters are each pretty short and are a preface to Part 2. I'll post one every other day until we arrive at Thursday, Oct 2 (in David's world).

    Entry 8

    Aw MrM, Brandon is so smitten! A great chapter!! I liked his observation that Billy is like a TV set, always on ...haha. Pretty perceptive! Brandon has more experience seeing the world, but less confidence applying it to himself. It makes him skittish like a kitten, not like the cat he likened himself to who would laze around all day. Very lovely descriptions throughout. This is a great idea coming to fruition MrM! I always get a smile when I see another chapter up!
  17. “Kathy and I are going shopping this afternoon to find a shirt and tie to coordinate with her dress. Then we're gonna grab something to eat and see a movie. You and Mel want to meet us for the movie?” “No, Mel and I are going to visit the falls and probably won't make it back in time for the movie.” Twoey said he had plans, but didn't say what they were. OK, I guess we were each doing our own thing today. I remained in my room to avoid any trouble. I even did my homework a day early. I guess
  18. Ah ...so now we get a glimpse of the force on the dark side. Like that dark force, they have the strength of good tools and a strong focus on their side. Will the good guys be able to defend? Will they be able to attack and take out the leader? Will that even stop them? Haha ...I sound like the narrator for a TV serial. But, M_L, there's a little truth in there, I think. At least you've painted the other side more clearly. Keeps me waiting for more! Good chapter!
  19. Thanks for the review and comments CG! You are so right about dark undercurrents, and not just for Twoey! The only possible salvation for Gary is if he's being played too. If he's the mastermind then he's gonna do a whole lot of hurtin'
  20. Thanks for the review Parker! Unfortunately for Twoey he's right to worry, as we'll see too soon. You know David would find it impossible to follow your advice. It's not in him to not fight back hard when he sees a threat. That in itself will create a little storm, but we're not there yet. Still a lot of chapters to go.

    Chapter 2

    Well W_L, a great start to an intriguing story. I was gonna say intriguing little story when I noticed this was in 'Book1' so I'm thinking there's lots of story here. That's good news, given the first few chapters. OK! Now I have something to look forward to every Friday besides the guy in 5C! Keep 'em coming friend!
  22. Gary and I couldn't help but be all over Twoey about Lanni during our run. It was all in good fun, except Gary kept grumbling I won the bet because Twoey must have told me. Twoey denied it over and over. But then Twoey asked how did I find out, and so fast. I smiled and said someday he would discover how incredibly well connected I was. Gary looked right at me and scoffed. “I guess you are unhinged, if you believe that!” SHIT!!!!! It’s when I realized Tommy's mother said something to his mothe
  23. Ha! Tim, what a hoot! It almost came off like an old Buster Keaton silent movie comedy! All the gags timed right down to the last second! A great repertory troupe you have there! Each episode develops the characters better. Even though we can anticipate the reactions sometimes, it's still fun to watch it all unfold. Great work Tim. Lots of fun. Not to mention you hit the prompts cleanly!

    Splash

    Eric did have an education today! Not only in stealing strawberries ...hehe. I think it was good for him to discover all kids aren't evil toward him, as seems to have been his bad luck up to now. Maybe his shields will be down enough for a really good-for-him person to enter. Let's hope! Another fine chapter Parker! This story is intriguing to read. I always look forward to the next leg in Eric's saga!

    Fear

    Thanks AC! Hmmm Thankfully I've only had to meet a mom ONCE! But it was a bit traumatic.
