  1. Joanne, I'm glad you enjoyed this story and found it uplifting. As far as the dialect, I guess my time living in the south has not been in vain and helped me with this aspect of the story.
  2. Wayne, very nicely done. I didn't think sex change, but when you kept saying how she looked familiar I figured she might be Teddy's mother or another close female relative. I think the twist that surprised me is how Mary sent the other ticket to Teddy, by figuring the mail would be forwarded to his current address. I'm glad things worked out for them.
  3. Happy Birthday B1ue. Hope it's a great one.
  4. My question is, haven't they checked to see if both sets of twins have the same father? lol
  5. Happy Birthday, Curti. Isn't it wonderful getting older.
  6. I moved to Georgia after taking a job with a large construction company that had offices in Atlanta, Augusta and Macon. Since it was possible that I could be assigned to work out of any of those offices at any given time, I decided to try to find a place to live where my commute would be approximately the same, no matter which location I was working out of at the time. With that in mind, I started driving around until I spotted a perfect piece of property that was located near the center of th
  7. Justin Doyle moved to Georgia to find a job, but it’s also where he met his partner, Andrew Livingston. They were doing well until a recession gripped the country and the situation turned bleak, but then a stormy night turned into one they’ll never forget.
  8. My absolute favorite was APBA Baseball, where you got to pick your favorite professional team and then make your own line up using any all-star that had played on the team - ever. You could call situations, like hit and run, bunt, steal, and the outcome was determined by a roll of the dice, using the player's lifetime stats. It was great. I also enjoyed the games Life, Stratego, Clue and Trivial Pursuit.
  9. I found this posted recently on a reliable news site, so I figured it was a current and not outdated story. I still believe that.
  10. http://mom.me/fun/5605-record-breaking-kids/?icid=maing-grid7%7Cmaing8%7Cdl19%7Csec1_lnk3%26pLid%3D263575 Shane Bernier is a 7-year old Canadian boy suffering from leukemia and all he wants for his 8th birthday on May 30 is a whole bunch of birthday cards. Will you please help make his dream come true? Send to: Shane Bernier, P.O. Box 484, Lancaster, Ontario KOC 1N0, Canada I'm sure he'll appreciate every card he gets and you don't have to wait until May. I'm sending mine now.
  11. http://usnews.nbcnews.com/_news/2013/01/28/16739587-exclusive-boy-scouts-close-to-ending-ban-on-gay-members-leaders?lite Has the financial pressure, with sponsors pulling out because of this policy, enough to get the Boy Scouts leadership to change? Only time will tell, but this is a positive signal.
  12. Happy Birthday, Jim. I hope it was a great one.
  13. Alex, have you thought about trying cross-country skiing or going to the gym to play basketball, jog or just workout? If not, you may consider some of those things.
  14. Happy Birthday Riley. Sorry I was a little slow getting this in.
  15. Happy Birthday, David. Are you related to Duncan or Connor, the Highlanders? If you're immortal too, then you'll have many more of these. Hope they're all great!
  16. I nearly had to have someone give me CPR, but my Falcons pulled it out. Could we have a bird Super Bowl? Falcons vs Ravens? lol
  17. Were these created by the mind of Wes Craven or Tim Burton?
  18. Happy Birthday, Cassie. I hope it's a great one.
  19. Thanks, Hector. I can see the similariities, except I think everyone else was focusing on the good ol' boys, not Devin, but he might fit the Rambo mode, just not quite as macho.
  20. Happy Birthday Krista. I hope it's a great one.
  21. Zachary, you're a real sucker. lol
  22. Excuse me that this isn't in my usual size font or color, but it doesn't seem to be working for me. Anyway, Happy Birthday, Kyle and I hope it's a great one. The entire world is throwing a huge party on your behalf.
  23. Happy Birthday, Jack. Unfortunately, you were one of those people who got shortchanged with a birthday during the holidays, but I hope it's still a great one.
  24. I'll be rooting for the Falcons, although I'm not sure if they're as strong as their record would indicate.
  25. After living in the north for many years, I do miss snow for Christmas, but you can keep it the rest of the year.
