  1. Looking through the Texas crime data, unless I missed it, there was no distinction.
  2. Yeah, nobody likes a good lawyer. They’re like Santa Claus or the Easter Bunny. Not real, right? Just kidding, but I’m not seeing Fred as the target of hate, for whatever reason.
  3. Consider this: Half of the lawyers out there graduated in the bottom half of their class. Probably not too hard to find an incompetent one. Silas was way more than incompetent.
  4. Not all, but there will be a healthy workload coming down the pike.

    Damn those cavemen, beating the dinosaurs, I'd love a dinosaur for a pet. My first concert, first two actually, were Joe Jackson - no, not Michael's dad.
  6. Thanks. The suspense is pretty much the whole point. Seemed anti-climactic when the discovery was made.
  7. All right on. Your 'great deal to do' comment will soon prove to be a massive understatement.
  8. Fred, Dante, and Kirsten made plans to go out after work on Friday to unwind, have a few drinks, and get to know Fred a little better. But Fred spent the next day, Wednesday, on the Wallingford case. There was so much to review, he hardly took any breaks. Late in the day, Sebastian stopped by to check in with him. "Hi Fred. How's it going?" "Slowly, there's an awful lot to review." "Yes. Sorry about that, but a necessary evil when you take over someone else's cases. Have you looke
  9. Thanks. I decided to give myself a break from longer chapters parts of a longer story. Glad you liked it.
  10. I thought it felt warm for a moment after I finished that line. Not to mention the stabbing pains in my back. Stabbing in the back? Not cool.

    Prologue

    Yeah, most of the originals have died. The inspiration for the story happened late 80’s or early 90’s. 3 Dog Night, the dance troupe, and the attraction to a dancer were real. The rest of it, not so much. I still have one of the songs they used on my playlist.
  12. Thanks. Not to mention the HEA, hehe.
  13. Cary is an account executive for a large telecommunications company. Class Act Communications holds an annual user’s conference. This year’s is in Las Vegas. The company always brings in big-time entertainment. The first part of the evening this year was a concert by 60’s and 70’s stars, Three Dog Night. After the concert, a dance troupe provided another hour or so of entertainment over drinks and appetizers. One of the dancers caught Cary’s attention in a big way. He just had to meet
  14. I remember the conference vividly. I was never a big Three Dog Night fan although I do enjoy many of their songs; mostly because my parents liked their music a lot. They did put on quite a show, though. But sitting in the ballroom afterward, having a couple drinks and appetizers, the secondary entertainment is truly captivating. Even though the dancers are covered completely in colorful spandex, or maybe because of that fact, their petite, lithe bodies are sexy as hell. That one there in th
  15. The story was inspired by Prompt #211: You’re a closeted gay man at a company gathering, for example, a conference of some kind. The company brought in a unique kind of entertainment and you’re attracted to one of the entertainers. With their costumes, you can’t tell if they’re male or female. You decide, what the heck, and ask them to meet you later. They’re not what you expected.

    Tired Prompts

    Looking forward to stories on 211. The idea came from an actual occurrence in my life. Well, up to the point of asking to meet him/her. I’ll be taking this one on for sure.

    Chapter 32 Okay

    No, not at all. I just have a hard time keeping track of everybody. That’s on me.

    Chapter 32 Okay

    I’m beginning to think I need a scorecard to keep all the characters straight, no pun intended. I might have to read through this again taking notes along the way. 😀 Nice chapter, though. Loved the descriptions of Milan.
  19. Almost like it was planned that way.
  20. I'd say more that partly. If Fred wasn't a lawyer at all, that opportunity would have never materialized. True about Dante. Dante may have some of the same opinions as Silas, but obviously seeing what happened to Silas, he's keeping them to himself.
  21. Indeed it is. Missouri's 2 character abbreviation is MO. Missouri is Mo's given name, that he doesn't like using.
  22. That would present a problem, wouldn't it? Damn. Three locks on my manuscripts still can't keep you all away from future chapters. Not sure about the relationship between the two. Perhaps they're in the same he-man gay boy haters club.
  23. Great summary. Why? Just an odd coincidence. Not a huge spoiler so I'll mention it. It will come early in chapter 10. Lyons, et al. also take on pro-bono cases from the public defender's office. Mo just happened to be one of them. Like you said, amazing luck.
  24. I may have answered some of the questions the same, but, no it isn't me. I've always avoided the show Seinfeld like the plague, never liked it, never will. Jerry isn't as bad as say Jim Carrey or Steve Carrell are to me, but I'm still not going to watch anything with him in it on purpose.
  25. Job search complete for now, it was dinner time. Fred checked out the nearby fast-food possibilities, picked somewhere he could get a relatively inexpensive meal, and headed out to eat. After dinner, he realized he pretty much had nothing to do. He thought, 'I thought being on the outside again would be better.' Fred decided to consider his time with Mo. He was torn. The job prospect back near Galveston looked very interesting, but then he wouldn't easily be able to visit Mo, which was definitel
