Benji

................... Hmmmm, hurricane Barbara turned out to be a category 2 Royce is better then FEMA, and is going to be the clean-up man on this storm, meanwhile the trash left over by Jordan and Rebecca Colmar will leave a stink for awhile. But as Jason pointed out Jordan is a user, I'm sure people will tire of them and their smell real soon. Round 2 coming up, 'Coach & Team' .... let's just say I think things will work out better then Jason expects it to on that. Minimal fallout, because the team has too much to lose. So what does one do with whiny homophobes that become unglued?? The ones that throw religious tantrums and go so red in the face they risk aneurysms? I mean how stupid was Jordan for even trying to hit Peter (Duh! an obvious black belt)! I think the louder they yell, the more ostracized the will become, this is no longer high school. Great chapter!!!

............... ROFLMAO!!!!

...........Poetry has a place here in GA, I rather enjoy reading some of them and will continue too!

...................... First name and middle initial, I been called Benji for as long as I can remember.

........Although this leads to Rob' knowledge of the area tends to give credence to the ascertain of Rob's involvement in the demise of the Aries!!

............. I actually think that even though they have acquired the needed evidence, they will wait before implementing the plan. I'm thinking just before Trevor reaches Australia, by that time Detective Gonzales has enough suspicion on Detective George to circumvent the proceedings against Joel. After all, Trevor will escape a 2nd possibly a 3rd assassination attempt. The close timing of both Joel's and Trevor's peril has to alert someone and hold back the proceedings. I'm thinking the next thing that comes across is a mistake by Bridget, one that reveals that she has heard of info that Lisa (G-D Lisa get a grip) realizes was private between her and Joel.

................... Nice story Cia!! I struggled with the metaphoric of this story, until the mid point! I realized the symbolism wasn't racial at all, but of the forbidden love. The struggle of the light and dark was nothing more then societies concept of right and wrong. And of course, homosexuality is viewed as a wrong, I get the feeling there was no black girl involved with a white boy in this saga. Just a blond boy and dark haired boy! Nicely done!!

..........Well I was right about the 15 to 20 meaning prison time, but wrong in the intended victim here Who would of thought of Joel??? Detective Gonzales has 3/4 of the bombing story and is tired of being put off by Dirk. It is time to confront Dirk at his shop, where he finds out from him that there is a discrepancy in the inventory!! Hmmm, can trace's of nitroglycerin be found in the debris, or will it just show up as dynamite? Shrugs, not that it makes a difference here, the investigation will lead back to Trevor's boat no matter what. Will Sanchez discover that the mix-up was not from the cartels doing but of a thief? Will it make a difference as he has already promised that Trevor will be killed no matter what without the need to implicate Dirk any further. I see rough seas ahead for Trevor, and a bad time for Joel coming up. I think Lisa will be key in persuading Gonzales to look into the planted evidence on Joel. Gonzales will start to piece it all together especially after using his new toy on the Sea Witch, he will be more intrigued after spotting George through his night vision goggles on Bridget's dock at night. George is being careless, will Gonzales contact the feds? Great Chapter CJ!!!

.................Me thinks a cliff-dwelling frog protest too much!!

............ I agree with Cia, you brought the fear right up with Jared gauging his new boyfriend's drinking, rightfully cautious and afraid. Jared needed this!! Great story!

..........Great story, fear gives away to strength! I loved the symbolism the lighthouse, the half-way meet made more desperate by the fact neither one of them knew if the other made it!

....... Hmm, what a nice name for a stalker!! 'The observer' and 'hey' and 'he' are nice names!! Looks like hey is in trouble because he has figured it out! Great story from an unusual perspective!!

.....................No, not a stand alone story, too many unresolved issues! You have wars about to be launched, a queen praying, and another one surely not wanting to see the heir appear. This needs to continue as it has the makings of a great novel and read!!! Great story Lugh, and I hardly ever read fantasy/sci-fi.

.............Beautiful story! Reminded me of stories I heard of the kids in Mexico that scoured the trash dump sites for items that could be sold for money. Poignant to the plight of the family, so strapped in poverty that a wheelchair was looked upon as richness in the community. The deep devotion of one brother to another is made of a stronger faith then I can imagine, nor seen lately. The upbeat sadness is evident in the end! That had to be hard to write, great story!!

..................Loved the selection criteria being used on your main character, it was perfectly masked away from the office politics! Great story Graeme!

.........Ah Ricky! Well written piece, didn't see it coming until the letter dropped out!

................... The choice is obvious, he needs to save Robert's life! I don't think Robert is guilty of anything other then being in the wrong place at the wrong time. Robert said 'they are after him' .....'trying to kill me' And the sheriff did not say that the cop's shot Robert, all they have is him running from the scene, where shot's were fired and a raped and murdered landlady was found. Plus the condom wrapper made no sense to Zachary, he knows something also. Great cliffhanger!!!!

.............. A great story, loved the way you had us hanging there for awhile on what Ash had said that set his parents off like that! Of course, I thought, as I'd guess many of the readers did, that Ash beat Aaron first in the admission being gay. It was great the way he defended his brother and left giving his parents time to cool down and let Ash calm back down. I was a bit surprised about the pregnancy , but I guess Evan wasn't he certainly deserved Aaron's attention!! The ending was the beginning, it was definately Aaron's turn! great story!!

.............Awesome story of self-sacrifice, broken hearts and a pained loss, and a love that transcended the spirit!

...............All I get is an Arabic voice on the other end!!!

........... I didn't fall for his ruse, I just found it very funny!! :lmao:

Happy Birthday, Conner! ............Have a great one!

............Hahahaha!..... Cliffhanger chirping frogs are diurnal live most of their lives on rock precipices, often near emerging writers. Like most frogs, they will hop, but they are also capable of crawling, which aids them in hiding in rock crevices. Though primarily found around rocky areas, they are also common in bookstores. Their primary diet is small insects, though they are known to be partial to barbecue. Their distinctive call, "Cliff-hanger! Cliff-hanger!" can be heard year round. They are highly myopic, and have been known to mistake almost anything for a cliff.
