There, fixed it for you. The correct answer is minutes. Just ask anyone who has sat at the table for one of the many memorable Escorial dinners. 😁 I think it's safe to say that Marc Sievres was not on anyone's bingo card. Well done, Mr. Arbour.

Last time gas was that cheap was in 1941. Adjusted for inflation, it brings the price to $4.00 a gallon. I paid $2.72 the other day. Glad to know I'm not the only one who remembers Green Stamps. Lol.

You're not alone. Lol.

Qui toi ? Pas question mec.

This is a series of books, and your confusion is understandable. You need to start at the beginning with Chronicles Of An Academic Preditor, also known as the CAP series, in order to understand who the players and plots are. Gap Year is 17th book in the series. The web that Mark has woven is quite tangled. If you are a history fan, there is a parallel series of books in the Bridgemont series that intertwines with the CAP series. If you're not a history fan, read it anyways because you will fall in love with history shortly after you start reading it. Mark's research and attention to detail is amazing.

It was said in jest at the dinner table after they all found out in Bloodlines. Blame the author.

Who does that? Um...... A certain hockey player by the name of Matt. LOL

They winter, spring, summer, and fall here in the U.S., as well as breed. They've adapted to the southern climate and are quite happy here even in 100+ heat, so they're not flying off anywhere. I'm in a small town in a rural area, so there are really very few natural predators to keep the population in check. They haven't wandered into my neighborhood yet, but if they do, they'll be in for a surprise. We have a healthy population of feral cats who take care of "trespassers" LOL.

They're protected in the U.S. as well under the Migratory Bird Treaty Act of 1918. Still, they are a nasty animal. My question is if they are parked in my town 365 days out of the year, are they really a migratory bird? We actually have geese crossing signs on our roadways here.

Stef was quite the rolling stone in his younger days. There is always the possibility of a progeny, and Fab could be a direct descendant blood connection. It's not out of the realm of realities in Arbourland. LOL P.S. You and @methodwriter85 should collaborate and do a family tree for the CAP series.

Are you suggesting that we cue up the incest music? Fab is somehow related to Stef, and it will be comedic gold when Brad and Will tell Stef that they fucked him.

So was it a bar brawl and was Cottontail spotted and his cover blown? Another captivating chapter, Laura!

This had to have been very difficult for you to write, but you did it so well. I hope that it gave you some healing from losing your mom.

I'm so relieved that you evacuated inland. Regardless of wind speed, this is a monster storm. I hope others will heed the warnings and evacuate as well. Touch base when you can.

If Will even mentions it, I'm thinking they may just stay out of it. They all realize that college is the first step in "adulting" and Will has already shown he's able to solve problems and come to an acceptable resolution to conflict. Mr. Post on the other hand, will be stuck with a whiny little bitch of a son who always runs to daddy when the going gets rough. Of course The Resident Dean may have his hands full when Steph decides to renovate the entire dorm and not just Will's room. 🤣
