I believe that Devin's offering to roleplay someone else for Mac stems in part that he still likes to be someone whose 6 feet tall or taller. He hasn't lost that hang up yet. Yes, maybe I was being a little lax in how I handled the situation, but the scene is still being handled by mall cops, not regular law enforcement, and Devin and Mac just want to purchase Devin's clothes and get out of there. There's enough to do for the ambulance crews.

Yes, he has to be careful, but in this case if he hadn't acted, many more people could have been killed or wounded. Luckily they were in a location that they couldn't be observed.

Yes, Big Brother has eyes everywhere, so they have to be careful where they transition. They will not always be so lucky.

Chapter 24 – Interesting Times in Missouri “Now that you’ve selected the complex, all we’ve got to do is get you ready to move and to prepare the house for sale,” my mom began. “And now that you’ve seen the size of the apartment,” my dad added, “you merely have to decide which furniture you want to take with you. Once you’ve figured that out, we’ll move the other items to the garage and get ready to have a garage sale before we leave on Sunday.” “And I’ll help Mom pack up the i

Another way of saying the same thing appeared in Matthew 7: 1 (King James Version). "Judge not, that ye be not judged."

This word originated from Latin: ultra (beyond), crepida (shoe, sandal), and re supra crepidam sudor ludicaret (the cobbler should not judge beyond his shoe). Was introduced into English in the early 19th century. The term was coined in 1819 by the English writer William Hazlitt.

Just so you know, here are some adjectives for woolly: furry, fuzzy, hairy, rough, shaggy I think Jason fits into those descriptions.

Let's try Troy Polamalu then.

ulotrichous - (adj) - having woolly or crisply curly hair

It seems only logical that you would ride in a 'cattle car' to get to and from the stampede. I hope you were riding next to a group of cute guys then, since you were bouncing around and into each other.

I guess ulotrichous would describe Jason Momoa as well.

Quote @Valkyrie I could clearly see the driver and his passenger and the looks of terror on their faces when they realized the light was red, followed by them bursting into laughter. I wonder if they realized how close they came to something that would have ended in tragedy(?) Val, that might be what you'd refer to as nervous laughter, as they realized how close they came to having a serious accident, not that they thought it was funny. All of you seem to have had an angel riding on your shoulder that day.

I believe with inflation it's about $10.00 now.

I've been watching this series all along and have been enjoying it. It gives you a bit of a history lesson as well, since it shows the progression through the years. I also love the complex, and often volatile, relationship between Daniel and Louis and Lestat

Thanks Lee.

Thank you, Danilo and Chris. I appreciate the sentiment and hasn't been long since the boys were celebrating another Fourth of July, back in Chapter 20.

Nubivagant also appears to be a category of music: Black Metal, focusing on themes such as evil, horror, death, emptiness, despair, and occultism

When I was younger it was more common to see a person with a large nose, but after rhinoplasty started becoming more popular in the late 20th century and the cost was in range of more people, those with large noses seem to get them taken care of as soon as possible.

Yes, Mac is sort of like a mother to Devin. Devin teases him about making lists, but it shows how organized Mac is, and Devin might have benefitted from a list in this case. lol Yes, helping grandparents or elderly parents move into a retirement house is always difficult, that's why I kept my elderly relatives closer to home. There was still the moving to get them there, but we had a chance to keep a closer eye on them.

I'm glad it worked out for your dad. As I indicated in this chapter, I believe there are a few good places left that aren't being run by those just into it for the money. In my case, we took care of my in-laws, because we lived in a big old farm house that provided them with their own living room, bed room, full bath, and we shared the kitchen and laundry areas. Later, after we'd moved to another location, I took care of my mother and aunt (her sister), because there was a second building behind our house that contained two apartments (It was the reason I purchased it in the first place). I hope the situation doesn't get any worse for other seniors, because I know many are struggling and others are already homeless. It's a shame that the country doesn't feel an obligation to help them, because the majority weren't freeloaders and just spent their life working low paying jobs, especially the single/divorsed women.

I'm glad to hear they fared better than most, even if it was a bit of a struggle.

I'm glad that your parents were treated well and I feel badly for your aunt. Unfortunately, those types of stories are far too frequent when it comes to the elderly. Although many had worked their entire lives and struggled to barely get by, or were in the military, too often those handling the purse strings turn a blind eye, since they can afford better for themselves and their loved ones.
