Thank you! Sorry about a delay.. I've been really busy.. and I've been on a bit of a writing hiatus.. as well.

I can't help it if you're lacking in your reading and I actually had a one up on you.. lmao. It didn't last long did it..

Yes.. I saw that. lol. hmm.. I think some of it got lost between my many documentation transitions.. sigh.. at least it was just a few words.

Oh I will. When ever my full plate is clean from my other projects. I'm glad you liked the story though!

Thank you! I'm glad you read it!

Happy Birthday! Hope you have a nice one.

Hmm.. probably thought he would get away with it... small print.. way out there on the field.. too bad media has far surpassed the human eye and there is a feature called ZOOM.. lol. Most people probably had to Google Search what he meant. The fine and suspension was fine, the out reach is a plus. He knows he's not about to get away with stupidity his reputation, the team, his contract, and future would be too much to lose. We can hope for a change of mind though..

Happy Birthday - Anti-poof. Have a great one.

Hmm.. I'm my own worst enemy... since I tend to write very simplistic stories that don't take a lot of thought to get through. As far as reading.. I've not read much that would fall under that. I've been wanting to read Fifty Shades though.. so maybe that one will be my guilty pleasure.

The FAQs and TOS are here for a reason, they serve their purpose well. You'll be hard pressed to find a site such as this that doesn't have either, it is just professional and helpful to have them.

Happy Birthday! Hope you had a great one!

Very nice James! I don't mind seeing summer end. I like Autumn.

This is an example of why Member Reports are so important to the Moderation teams. Not only does it give us something to file and put away or discuss - it gives us a time stamp or a time should be added so that the incident can be looked into. Chat is fast paced and there are times when Moderators/Administrators aren't in there or not paying attention. I will also have to add that people who frequent chat get to know one another and a joking/lightness is formed. Not with everyone, but it happens. I don't think anyone would tell you to shut up or anything for speaking a concern. You're getting a bit defensive, but the people who have commented have been frequent chatters - and would likely know more about what is happening. So instead of saying, "I'll just shut up and absorb it," you could take a more proactive step and come into chat and see for yourself.

Boo.. Sym, I like the Elf mage.. she was hilarious in DA:2. I want to see what that Dragon Witch has planned as well.. she seems to know what's going on all the time.. Flemeth. Plemeth? which ever.

You're not an Ogre - you're a Sasquatch.

Bah! I'm starting to wonder if DragonAge will be out later this year.. or no? I want to play the third installment.

Ah.. Kentucky lost to Louisville, but can you really count Kentucky as a SEC worthy football team?

The 'real' football has started... First week: Alabama killed Michigan, I thought they would win, but to smack around a team ranked in the top 10 is scary! Penn St. lost their opener. Georgia, Arkansas, Oklahoma, South Carolina, and Wisconsin are all BCS Title contenders that only just survived their games. Southern California's coach Lane Kiffin is still an asshole and I would hate for them to do well this season. It completely overshadowed the Hawaii game season opener.

I'd live through the pain until someone found the vinegar - it has the same effect.. lol.

No.. I'd let the little shit suffer - it was 'fake' suffering anyway, since he didn't really get stung by a jelly fish. I wouldn't for a movie role.. it just wasn't needed, they could have faked it.. blah.. disgusting.

Aww.. that's a great Dad.

Labor Day - We usually do a cooking thing and the kids camp out in the front lawn since it seems to mark the end to warm summer - especially at night.

Yeah he's a diva. Usually on a first movie in a franchise they're lucky to get much on the contract for the first movie... 4 million would be a crap load for a first movie.. Jennifer Lawerence only got 500k for 'The Hunger Games' as a starting salary.

I guess he's still wild.. if I'm to be Queen he's going to have to tone it down a bit.

I thought he'd have to have more sex appeal and a more of a surfer look. Although, that is casting just on physical descriptions and most of the time people will be disappointed based on looks. I'm sure he could act like their Finnick - the one written in the script. It is the most annoying aspect of Books to Films. Everyone already has their "perfect" characters in mind. When they cast Josh Hutcherson as Peeta I about keeled over - he didn't look or seem to be able to act like him based on past performances, but I think he pulled the character off well. I was actually surprised in a good way when they cast Woody Harrelson as Haymitch, but I feel that Woody butchered my Haymitch, so it goes both ways. On a side note, the same thing happened with this other Book the Movie series franchise in the making - "The Mortal Instruments" - Everyone wanted Alex Pettyfer for the part of the lead male role. I wanted to strangle those people lifeless, because I think the guy is an idiot that can't act. Then they cast Jamie Campbelle Bower and I went "blah" again.. lol.. he looks too... grunge - for the part, but they say he nailed the character, so for now I'll just have to wait and see.
