    Oh funk me!

    If Williams really is Ivy League-caliber, you should have no reservations. Hopefully, you won't be majoring in math.
  2. Happy Birthday, Dom!
  3. Update? Frogs are prescient. Your #1 amphibian. Mike
  4. Go gays!
  5. Interpolated
  6. Down under
  7. It's like pruning a bush. It strengthens the branches and promotes more luxurious growth. Maybe "shrub" would be better than "bush".
  8. Brilliant closing movement to a virtuoso performance, Chase. Bravo! Your stories are excellent. Please lay some more on us.
  9. You won't like this idea, but it could save you a lot of money. Don't buy a radar detector and don't speed. My experience, which includes a little driving in New York, is that you can go up to fives miles per hour over the limit and you won't be stopped. Happy driving!
  10. Happy Birthday, Camilo! The Big # 18 You still can't legally buy or drink liquor, but you can vote and you must register for the draft. But first, let's party!
  11. Shower. The whirlpool tub is great but requires a big investment in time and water.
  12. I, too, am glad to see you back at work writing a new story. Unfortunately, I have to disagree on the origin of the name Wendy. Peter Pan, the Boy Who Wouldn't Grow Up was originally a play by J. M. Barrie first produced in 1904. The book was first published in 1911. The name Wendy has been used as a given name for girls born in the United States since 1828. See: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wendy and other references linked there. See ya, Spitfire.
  13. Taxes patience
  14. We have a cat, but I don't really think of my self as a cat person. The problem is that our cat isn't a people cat.
  15. I didn't think five was very good either. If you don't get it right away, you have to kind of train yourself to look at - not read - the word. I get 100% the first time every time I try it now.
  16. I don't smoke, so I'm not sure. I guess it has something to do with being super hot...muy caliente if you will.
  17. So, you've played computer games and every title on those pricey little boxes. You have developed great coordination between your eyes and your hands. You are king of this and master of that. (You will notice I haven't actually named any of the games. That's because I don't play them and, while I've heard of a lot of them, I haven't made a great effort to remember the names.) OK. Eye/hand coordination is great, right? What happens when you have to add your brain to the mix? Eye/brain/hand coordination? You mean "brain" as in school? Yes, that brain. Try this little test. Call it a game if that makes you feel better. Relax. Follow the instructions. Don't search the 'net for cheats; there aren't any. Just do it. Let everyone know how you did. It took me five tries to score 100. That's not so bad, is it?

    Me first Blog!

    Welcome to the blogosphere, Cammy. Your first attempt is quite a tour de farce. Sounds like Connecticut is a happening place. It's like Perks; I'm already looking forward to the next installment. You do need to explain one thing in more detail: What is it about a girl sitting in your lap that would cause her to question your sexual orientation?
  19. The plural of hiatus is hiatus or hiatuses. In any event, I'm glad yours is over and hope you feel better. I thought the Mexican restaurants out there were supposed to be good.
  20. Chapter 8 is great, Camilo. Case and Luca seem to be getting along better. And you have revealed a bit more about Casey's brother, David. I'm really enjoying the story. Tell your twinkle fairy to behave.
  21. Not impressed
  22. Adjourned suddenly
  23. Thanks for bringing this story to out attention, Jan. It is a very good story...touching and informative...and exceptionally well written. Testicular cancer tends to strike young men in their teens and twenties while prostate cancer is largely found in older men. Everyone needs to be aware of both diseases and of the warning signs for each. Emulated Love's story seems to be very accurate in it's depiction of testicular cancer diagnosis and treatment.
