Good afternoon @MacGreg and @Wayne Gray... In the 90's with 45% humidity here. Feels like 96*.

Nah, Bro. I didn't take what you wrote as invalidation, and I actually think you made a very valid point about Ben and his experiences with Sex. I was just clarifying where I was coming from. You point about his experiences with women actually supports my claims about his self-loathing. Especially with that bitch Christine. We don't know, or I missed it, who/what made Christine have an abortion, but Ben is carrying a lot of guilt there like's its a Sword of Damocles. He's feeling guilty that his child is dead. Christine throwing the abortion back into his face was a pivotal point in Ben's psyche and how he's seeing things with Travis. Or, again, that's my perspective of it. Thanks, Mac. I completely agree about readers picking up on stuff that you may not have seen. AC in my O. Henry prompt piece, said he liked the theme of breaking the chain curse, and that I wrote it well. When I was writing the short story, I hadn't thought about that aspect, but I see it now. I'm reminded of something said in the movie The Neverending Story 2, in which the bookstore owner told Bastion, "Stories change every time you re-read them." I can't tell you anything about the rest of the movie, but that scene is like burned into my mind. While the story itself doesn't change, your perspective of it does. You can read something one way, and then comeback to it and read it a different way.

That's a great quote. I've actually came back to this and reread my comment above. I do believe, that part about "as a Reader" is my doing a bit of projecting from my experiences. There's been a lot of Fucking Onions parts for me, but I keep reading because it's a great story and Mac is an Excellent Writer. I still stand by what I wrote, but I know where it's coming from now.

Sleep Well, DiCers.

You sleep well, miss molly.

Sleep Well, Reader

Sleep Well, my Brother

Sleep Well, Thorn.

Hockey Time... The Bruins better F'ing win tonight. Also, new Avatar... Yeah, I'm always switching them up...

I've done that before. It does make it easier, especially if you have to split a long chapter into two or three.

Accurate:

DOH.... Still, I hope it's a good day.

Have fun, my Brother.

Sleep Well, my Brother.

Heya sean. Good to see ya around.

Had to look up both places (not walmart). The Mall looks nice, real nice on the Google images.

Thanks, Mac. I wrote that after being up over 24 hours. I'm glad I didn't offend you. I'm defiantly looking forward to more Ben and the crew, in the future. 🙂

Back at ya, Bro. I hope all is going well with the Toronto Tour. So far so good. I'll be in and out today.

Morning everyone.

We[come back!

LOL, thanks, comicfan. What can I say, you come up with some great prompts. I got a list of numbers I want to try to tackle. Yeah, I've pretty much decided I'm going to make this a series. Repost this as a prologue, with the official first installment. BUT that will happen after I finish my current project.

From Prompt #748: The Ring

Also it's DERBY DAY!!!

Enjoy your time outdoors. I found a secret to help cheer one up. The laughter of a 2-y/o, when your making dino-roars chasing them.

You're welcome Mac.
