TJ would be better off in a foster home, now with Dickhead, er, Butch attacking and trying to rape him. TJ deserves better, but his lack of self-esteem prevents him from getting it.
I’m a little confused. How could it be TJ’s 17th birthday when he died at a little over 16 1/2? That, and it seems like more time has passed for it to be September 17th.
Not a huge deal, but an inconsistency nonetheless.
Well, Carter turned into a real shit. I wonder if he dies at the end too. Wouldn’t be a bad thing. He obviously was blowing Ricky when they left, if not getting fucked.
And TJ gets fucked in a not so nice way.
I feel like I’m TJ watching a tennis match, Carter on one side and Randy on the other. Which way to turn? TJ’s confused. He wants a friend, he wants a lover. But how can they be different people and he get through it?
Meat Loaf sang two out of three ain't bad, but for TJ, it's more like 3 out of 4 or 4 out of 5 if we include Carter. The odd one out is Bitch. D-e-a-n-n-a, funny how you spell bitch.
Looking at another's crotch could have been a fatal mistake, figuratively. Randy returned the look and they found out each other's secret without a word being shared. Things are looking up for TJ.
TJ expects everyone him to see him as a loser, white trash. The first person he meets at his new school doesn't do that. Will things keep looking up for him? Hope so.
Another one late to the party, but I enjoyed the previous ronyx story I read recently, so I'm all in on this one. A sad start, especially since it foreshadows a sad end, or close to end.
I've mentioned before that I divest the artist's personal life from their music. I understand not everyone likes the same music, but at least, hopefully, you recognize the amazing talent he was. By far my favorite Beatle.
Damn. I have to change the story again to make you wrong. OK, so, no, I don't. Marie-Louise does not end up living. With George, or Lionel, or Lorenzo.
I usually don't like covers, but sometimes they work. This is one of those times. Thanks for mentioning it. And yes, I do like the original and much of Led Zeppelin's library. It was strange hearing the mandolin where Jimmy Page's guitar was usually heard, but it wouldn't have been right with heavy guitars and Dolly's voice.
Got it. Well, if she was in Nashville when the death cloud hit, she would have survived. Actually, about half of Tennessee. Maybe Marie-Louise encountered her after her exile from the hotel. If she wasn't, well, perhaps the Coat of Many Colors would have protected her. At least from 9 to 5. I hope Jolene survived too. Otherwise, they'd be saying Hello God. Regardless, I Will Always Love You, Dolly.
It's the tariffs. Damn them!
Yes, Knoxville is indeed west of the mountains.
I must have missed something. Dolly? ML, I don't know, perhaps a hopeless case. Another we shall see.
Indeed. But ominous for whom is really the question.
Finale on Friday.
