    Chapter 15 S2

    It's definitely possible, and now they seem to be dragging Mac in with them. In this case, it was a good thing Devin was alert and saw the guy with the gun and attacked him, ot herwise this might not have turned out so well.

    Chapter 15 – Excitement on Spring Break “The two guys are arguing, because whatever they were up to hadn’t gone well,” Devin reported after he’d transitioned back to himself. “It appears that while they were kidnapping the woman, they might have also killed someone in the process.” “That means they’re armed and dangerous,” Pops mumbled. “It sounds as if they’re holding her for ransom,” Devin continued, “and I take it her husband must be very wealthy, because they were saying som

    All roads don't led to Rome. The lead to buying an MG.

    Only one submission per author. I'm sure some, besides myself, will be disappointed by this news, since a tribute to Comicality can be done in different ways. I had already considered a couple of different ideas once it had been announced that a tribute to Comicality would take place, and I've already started working on one idea. I'd thought of different angle I might try as well, but I guess I can always post my second idea on my site with a dedication to Comicality in a story note.

    Today, as in this afternoon I went to the Calgary International Beer Fest. Over 200 Craft breweries with over 700 types of beers, spirits, ciders and meads 😮 Oh my. Considered the largest in Canada and one of the top 5 in the world. Somehow I had a few shots of moonshine too! And the Irish have always had a reputation for being big drinkers, but of course, the probably got that reputation before Canada became a country. Or did they all move to Canada later?

    The word pother has an interesting history. Originally, it was pronounced to rhyme with other, but in the 1800's the pronunciation shifted to rhyme with bother. As far as the word's meaning, in the 1590s it meant 'a disturbance or commotion'. In the 1640s it referred to 'mental trouble', and by the 1690s it meant 'to fluster'. According to Merriam-Webster, today it means 'agitated talk or controversy, typically over a trivial matter', but it has a secondary meaning: 'a choking cloud of dust or smoke'.

    But it kills a lot of trees in the process and some employers have complained that workers are becoming less productive because their always writing on on sheets of paper and then throwing them away! lol

    So, you're a rock climber? I'm pressed. What more incredible skills do you possess?

    Val, I have a question about prompt #217. What is 'the Tor'?

    When I was growing up, any unmarried woman over 40 was called a spinster, and any unmarried man over 40 was called a 'confirmed bachelor'. You'd be surprised at how many of them had roommates.

    My family would watch this movie every time it was on, as well as The Wizard of Oz. They're both burned deeply into my brain.

    As always, Steve, you're a day late and a dollar short. And that's US currency, not that Canadian stuff.

    May not be any fun, but it's usually more effective, especially when you already have so much on your plate.

    Spiders

    Bill W replied to Zombie's topic in The Lounge

    Who the hell would want to wear a spider for an earing? Could you image the legs jiggling around and touching your face and ear all day? I'd be reaching up and instinctively trying to swat it away or swash it.

    That will teach you not to speak up @wildone

    Hey, if it was good enough for Shakespeare to use methinks over and over again, its good enough for @Myr to do the same.

    Then again, some people have more than one alcoholic nightcap before going to bed.

    I believe you've been watching too many police dramas on TV, along with formerly watching too many westerns. They do? I didn't know that, or did I. Hmmm, can't wrap all problems up in a single chapter.

    Yes, Chris, a relaxing trip planned for the boys to get away from the stress of their classes has taken a sudden turn. What's going to happen next? You'll just have to wait and see.

    Those are all good ideas, drs, but you'll have to wait and see if they opt to follow any of them. They may have come up with their own plan instead.
