  1. Wayne, I was fascinated by the idea that there is now magic in Storybrook, but the fact that this magic works differently will prove to be a game changer, becuase no one knows for sure what to expect. Regina couldn't get the Mad Hatter's Hat to work, Mr. Gold was surprised by how his attempts weren't working and Emma will indeed play a bigger role in this 'new world.'
  2. The Beatles defined my gneration and if you look at the diversity of the music they created, the helped to revolutionize the genre. The songs posted above were terrific, but I think their Sgt. Pepper album was the most amazing of all.
  3. Happy Birthday, MJ! I hope it's a great one!
  4. Think about it! Say a guy has been locked up in prison for 30 or 40 years and gets released. How does he possibly function with all the technological changes that have happened since he was first sentenced?

    Golf

    Total US meltdown, but I still give credit to the Europeans for not giving up.
  6. I don't know who lives in the second house, but I'm glad Tiger's divorce didn't leave him homeless.
  7. Why hasn't anyone mentioned how the CD helped to replace the limited floppy discs? I think that had much more impact than the CD over vinyl.
  8. Happy Birthday, Tranquility!
  9. Happy Birthday, Camilo!
  10. Happy Birthday, Cyn!

    Hope For the Future

    You're welcome and I'm glad you enjoyed it.
  12. Happy Birthday, Houdini. I hope you have a fantastic day!
  13. It's not that the regular refs don't make bad calls, but the replacement refs are making a multitude of them in the same game, plus they seem to be losing control at times, which means player can, and probably will, get hurt. Some of the refs are even confusing college rules with pro rules, which does alter the game. I can forgive an occasional blunder, hell I've officed in numerous sports myself and know how difficult the job can be, but there are more than what I'd consider allowable mistakes in just one half, let alone the entire game.
  14. Unfortunately, I don't see things changing right away unless one of two things happen. One, either the players will have to refuse to play, citing potential hazardous conditions with the replacement refs, or two, the fans have to stay away until the regular refs are brought back. The owners are only going to respond when it hits them where it hurts - in the wallets.
  15. I'm glad we could choose more than one item, since I've always been a jock but like to endulge my creative side too.
  16. Happy Birthday Yetti! Go out and have some fun, you deserve it.
  17. HAPPY BIRTHDAY, STEVE! I hope it's a great one.
  18. I love the Falling Skies series. Great drama in a sci-fi theme. I can't wait to see how this works out after the Mass unit was treated so poorly by the so called civilian authorities.
  19. Happy Birthday, Dave. Hope it's a good one.
  20. Thank you for your kind words and I'm glad you enjoyed this story. Even though you had the feeling this might be autobiographical, it was mostly fiction, although a few parts were based on the lives of others. I'm sorry you didn't like the history lessons and I can understand your POV, but they have actually drawn a lot of constructive praise from readers, both on this site and others that I post on. Thank you very much for the feedback.

    Yes, Percy, it always feels good when the bad guys get their due.

    Chapter 1

    Thank you, Delores. Yes, it was sad that he died, but at least he got justice.
  24. Thanks, Mike. I'm glad you enjoyed this little seasonal offering.

    Chapter 1

    I'm not sure if that means you liked it or hated it. It was a twist that I was hoping people wouldn't foresee, but I hope that didn't make you dislike the story.
