I swallowed the whole thing!!!!!

And Happy Birthday Mark. I hope you have had a Great One!

My tummy disagreed, it told my brain to feed it. I had skipped lunch today. I really needed a beer more than food, but they went down good together!

Wow! Thank you Mark! I am about to run out and have dinner. In Huntsville, AL tonight. Will read when I return later.

I look for the really long stories to read, or trilogies. I don't get into short stories or the stories with multi chapters but the chapters or only 500 - 800 words in them. The longer the better for me as long as it is a good story.

I have read it thru fully 2 times and sometimes now when someone is reading it and makes comments I reread that chapter to familiarize it. So some parts or chapters I have read 3 - 5 times. It is one great story. I just wish C James would come back on and do an update on how Trevor and the rest of the character are today. It would probably be the highest read on here then.

Thank you so much for the weekly release of your latest chapter @Mark Arbour Keep up the great work!

Thank you Mark for this very good chapter. And for getting Will and JJ back close again. And thank you for the consistency of your chapter releases lately. Now if we could just be hear from Granger we might consider you as "King of GA".

I think that is one of the best summaries of Brad and JJ's relationship from when JJ and Will were little until the present setting. I think @centexhairysub is as close to 100% correct than anyone else has offered so far.

Now would Mark do that? Surely not! Not Mark!

Well Chucky is burning! I think we will know soon who is behind all this. Wouldn't surprise me if it isn't one of his siblings or even mother. They probably think if something happens to Travis they will get his money. Making it look like they didn't have anything to do with it. But only a feeling. It could be anyone. Thanks Mark.

I have never had a "Blue Peter Badge" But should have had "Blue Balls Award" a number of times thru the years.

I agree with @PrivateTim 3 in a week is Great! I hope Jake knows someone high up with the NYPD that can get him access to the stalkers apt. or living quarters to see if they can find out who is behind this creep. JJ seems to be improving every chapter. I hope he continues getting better. Hey a slim tight ice skater's ass is a terrible thing to waste. Thor might be a good match for Finn and vice versa. Keep the coming @Mark Arbour

Thank you @Mark Arbour for doing what you said you would do. You are the best! Looking forward for Chapter 59. Maybe when they looked back and the stalker Chucky wasn't there they didn't know that Travis' Ninja had also located him and followed him home. Travis might get some of his stolen stuff back that hasn't been sold. Selling Travis' property may not be his top priority yet and still be available, especially the high dollar and sentimental items. There might be a link to Weinburg also.

Thank you @Mark Arbour for doing what you said you would do. You are the best! Looking forward for Chapter 59.

I never saw "Fargo". But I do recall the "Alligator farm scene in CJames' great "Circumnavigation" story.

You will probably get a scolding and warning for GA. I did when I made a comment a few chapters ago. Good luck.

Thank you Mark for another outstanding chapter. You are the Man! I really doubt that Weinburg will get off with just merely loosing his job, might not be near as good looking a guy like Travis had describe him as being. Missing teeth and broken nose needs a lot of extensive and expensive work. Or I hope something like that might happen to him. Maybe Jake will have some of his buddies do it and not himself.

"The announcer went on to delineate the Great Male Renunciation, much as Bellona had detailed it, and gushed over how creative we’d been with our costumes." Like you @centexhairysub when I read that I figured that was the reason Bellona had left the table to talk to the Judge's. I bet they weren't even aware of the meaning of Kris and JJ's costumes until she spelled it out to them. I don't think she told them to make them the winners but knew that since this was a fashion event and they knew the concept it would heavily tilt in their favor. Thanks @Mark Arbour for another great chapter. I was hoping for more of Stef, JP, and Brad visiting more of Will and Marie's lectures. But maybe some highlight's will still come out later.

I'm an old man now. That was back in the 70's and 80's. Once a week is appreciated now!

George should have stamina; he is only 25 years old. Hell at 25 I would fuck a guy or girl and get off 3 times without ever pulling out with the guys and only to put a fresh rubber on with the girls if she wasn't on the pill. Marathon fucking! Only a notch below when I was 15 and 16 years old. Another great chapter @Mark Arbour Waiting on the next one.

Wow! Great Chapter. Can't wait for the next chapter. I don't think the director will be with that production very long.

Let your fingers do the walking. I have forgotten what commercial that was from? Might have been the Yellow Pages, but not 100% sure. Anyway you have done a great job so far, so just go where your heart and imagination leads you! You are appreciated!

And the question of the hour: How do Marc and Adam have children? Science. A little of Marc and Adam's DNA. Mix... shaken, not stirred. And whalla. A child is born. Just kidding. It's explained in more detail about 13 chapters down the road. Still have to get through a few more events and the Bonding Ceremony itself. That being said. Enjoy! This is from very first book in this series: It All Started With A Shuttle Flight - Prologue. Prologue “The reason humanity now lives to be over two hundred and fifty stanyears on average instead of one hundred-ten?” asked Mercedes. “Yes, precisely. Combine that with our ability to birth children in chambers instead of females having to carry them to term, which was already working to increase populations by allowing male/male and female/female couples to have children together with no member of the opposite sex needed, the colonies now had a population explosion. Look at Alterra III, for example. They landed three hundred thousand original colonists and brought the fabrication equipment to make Birthing Chambers and the people needed to operate them. In the first hundred years, they had been into the fourth generation already. By the sixth century of their founding, they had a population of almost one point eight billion people. All thanks to technology and proper planning. With their young population, they could colonize multiple systems and did. A few others of the original colonies followed the immigration path. Others grew first before introducing immigration. And now we have multiple autonomous states like our own Confederation. Most of which are out on the frontiers of the Core Worlds Republic. Hence why we have little interaction with them.” Dr. Sarrat finished. So this here kind of made me confused. I tapped out a response. “Oh Yes. We are talking about children. Over 6, most likely 10, before we have to worry about stretch marks and weight gain. Talk to you later. Alexander out.” Another GREAT one @P. E. Knapp
