Goodness the Reds' road trip is killing me.. late games.. Aaron filling up the swear jar.. and them LOSING.. sucks.

No. Who is Beantown? Boston? I guess you want me to thank you for making my picks and getting me to a second place finish, but Steven, second place is only the first loser.. so no, no no. No thanks until you make me Number 1.

Yayyy! Layla deserves the promotion fully. Congrats!

Let's hope not... I hate seeing these singers make millions before their balls drop...

... I GOT SECOND! YAYYY

Happy Birthday Viv!

Nice! I finally figured out an idea for this theme.. but it was too late and I too lazy to write it.. but it was a good one.

Oh goodness.. you're receiving a good throttling over this Nadian.. *Looks for her meat tenderizing mallet* I'll have to agree with what he said though. Something Unexpected has a lot of grammar, punctuation, and other errors all through it. It will likely distract readers... and the ending does leave a lot to be desired. But instead of writing an ending and shoving it in there damn near a decade later.. I may do a sequel. Haven't decided yet.

ooo Demon face in a wreck.. that's freaky..

Hmph.. I know I said that they will likely wait until contracts and positions for the new season were finalized.. but I hope they haven't backed out...

Aww.

Makes you like them more, yes? And.. What are y'all feeding them dudes in St. Louis? My goodness.. I was hoping Texas would beat them around a bit.. but no luck.. lol.

Don't jinx them.. err.. you can go ahead and jinx the Cardinals.. Last year the Pirates were in the thick of it and then faded terribly... hopefully the NL Central stays that dominate.

Noooo that would mean I'm just like Aaron's Momsy.. lol goodness me.. no. That would be scary.

Steven, your picks for me FAILED again!

And above all) Respect your Momma and realize that every woman in this world, no matter what, is more right than you are in any argument and situation.

Hi Vic, You had a way of keeping a lot of us grounded. When we went too crazy or bitchy you'd make a comment or a private message that would reel us back in, but in a way that didn't leave any hard feelings. You kept secrets, you were completely loyal to the people that you loved and to the authors that you liked. (Loved to the point of obsessed fangirl if it was Dom of course) And you didn't take it too personally when I forgot that I liked Dom's stories too and said something untoward about one of his characters. (By the way I still want to strangle Quinn lifeless for all the complaining and angsty stuff he did) and you didn't hate me for liking Seth, although you thought he was too boring.. or Aaron because he was too manipulative, crazy, and mean. Although your love for Dom's stories would never be questioned, you still took the time to read new authors and welcome them. You truly did mentor and help a lot of us 'youngsters' grow. You were dedicated to a lot of people here on GA and for that we should always be grateful and take time remembering how you molded us from hormonal crazies that fussed and fretted over little things.. into some what more stable adults... Sorry I made you squirm with all those Pink Thong jokes, but anyone that knows me, knows I do it out of love. Love, Krista

Happy Birthday Ole Mr. Leader Man, sir.

Sam Sam.. lol.. please be gentle.

I'd call it a walk off... lol. Of the worst kind. Reds are on a bit of winning streak of 6 games and Cueto is coming back Monday!

Humpback whales do have natural living predators - Killer Whales take calves. Since Humpback Whales don't have large birthrates in a female's lifetime. Species such as Humpback whales only need one or two unsuccessful breeding seasons to become threatened or too limited genetically to maintain healthy existence and will become extinct. Them finding 1,000 extra individuals is great, but it's not something that will save them as a species. Specialist animals such as Polar Bears, Giant Panda, most amphibians (Newts, Frogs/Toads, Salamander), whale species, some shark species, and reptiles will become extinct, because they are too limited climate, diet, etc. Where as the non-specialists are thriving - like most of the Canids and Rodents. (And Humans, by the way). One of the most detrimental things that can happen to a species though is the infestation of non-native animals. Usually those are non-specialist animals that do not have predators, so they thrive. (Feral Hogs, Red Fox, Giant Snakehead (fish), Burmese Python, Common Carp, Rats/Mice, Cane Toads, and African Honeybees)

I don't know why we want our Athletes and Celebrities to come out while still being 'actively' pursuing their careers. We wouldn't ask that of normal people - or shouldn't. We'd want people to come out WHEN THEY ARE READY. The only people to know that is the person pondering their lives and their coming out. He came out as a free agent, he's still actively pursuing his career. If his numbers/contributions are good enough to make a team, they are good enough to make a team. If they aren't, so be it. But he put himself out there when he didn't have to. So be enthusiastic about that instead of brushing off his bravery with what you think is good or bad 'timing.'

Am I doing any good? Yes? No?

Happy Birthday Dear! Be safe and have a great one! And of course, try to keep your pants on..

If you oops up on a review, correct your booboo and write another one... if it is a spelling/grammar error, I wouldn't worry about it too much. That sort of thing happens to the best of us.
