Wow! Those are some good ones. I don't know why I forgot about Alanis Morissette's best album coming out that year, but it was certainly a good one, though " " was the best in my opinion, and should you find a good reason to use it, I think you should. Oh, and who could forget "Fantasy"? That's my favorite Mariah Carey song for sure.

It was indeed a great chapter. Bitty is finally dead. That makes me happy. I figured it would be JP behind, but it looks more like it was Alejandro. He really does have a dark side. He scares me.

Happy birthday, James! I hope you're having a good one.

Mark, you love to torment me about Buicks. They can actually go pretty fast with someone like me behind the wheel and often do

I still don't get your fascination with Sarah Palin. About the only good thing I can say is that she's from a state that (if not for the cold winters) would be a virtual paradise.

I think it's time to celebrate Michael Jackson's music. My personal favorite is "You Are Not Alone". Also, please provide links to the songs. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=o8rYl6K2STc

Me too, but if I had to do so, two is as far as I can go, Robert Plant and Chris Cornell. They're both rock stars for anyone who does not know. Anyone who doesn't know who Robert Plant is should be shot.

The lullaby version of "When I Come Around" is interesting. Black Hole Sun is one of my favorite songs of all time. "Welcome to Paradise" definitely takes me back too. Also, how can one go wrong with Radiohead or Weezer... awesome selections.

Those are actually common for gays.

It certainly does. I haven't gotten drunk in so long...

Yes, the Ford Fusion hybrid looks great. It's cool that I could drive to KC and never fill my tank. You cannot say that with many aside from one of the hybrids, and that really is saying something if you consider that it's almost 600 miles from here to there. I could even drive to El Paso, which would mean I could get to California easily if I filled up there. I don't know how far the Prius would go, as there's another factor as in how much fuel it can carry. Regardless 40+ miles per gallon on a mid-sized car is good.

I doubt your wife would like that idea.

While I cannot afford to purchase another vehicle now, I intend to do so when I can. I have been thinking that a Toyota Prius would be a good decision, but I wanted to hear what others think. I especially am hoping to hear from some who actually own one, because their opinion would be most helpful.

I do not think that contract killing is within lawyers' means of creating remedies for such situations.

I keep thinking that Bitty may somehow disappear. She's messing with the wrong people. She should know not to mess with anyone close to JP. She may end up in the ocean somewhere.

Well Steve, I am a strong proponent of freedom in general, including religious freedom. I understand why some need religion, and so long as their religious beliefs do not interfere with the lives of others and are not used to discriminate, disparage, or spread hate, it is completely acceptable. As for "In God We Trust" I believe it to be unconstitutional. However, we can simply agree to disagree on that point.

Leave it to an Aussie to think of booze. Speaking of which, I wonder if it might help my affliction.

Chapter 18 was good. God, that Bitty needs to like suddenly disappear without a trace or something. She's pure evil! She wants to ruin those children's lives, at least that's what it seems like to me. She basically abandoned them, and now she expects them to live with her. She is not a mother. She is an egg donor, and she has no business raising them at all! Stef finally found out JP's biggest secret, just as I believe he should have long ago. This raises a question. Why didn't JP trust Stef with this information before? Like right after JP found out I understand as Stef was less than trustworthy earlier in his life, but through the years I would think that he'd trust him enough. Still, it's better late than never. However, it is something I believe he should at some point share with Brad, as I think he'd be understanding and would protect the secret until he takes his last breath, though now would be a bad time considering what he's going through.

BWS is short for Bridgemont Withdrawal Syndrome. There is only one symptom, a great desire to read new chapters from the Bridgemont series. I am already suffering from the affliction. Is anyone one else?

Well, Max did say that Marcel could stay and that he heals better when he's at the beach.

Feel free to kill off Bitch... err Bitty.

I'm adventurous yet steadfast and grounded. I am always looking for a laugh but can be stern and serious. I am a walking contradiction. To those I love, I am always there for them. For my enemies, my wrath is severe. I'm a fun-loving social creature at my best, a creature of solitude at my worst. I am practical, yet creative. I'm impatient, but I never give up. I think that about sums it up.

Well Conner, Marcel did betray Stef. That was his own doing. I don't think he should be blamed for it. Max, to an extent, is to blame, but no one put a gun to Marcel's head and told him to use meth. He did that on his own accord. He could have stayed in California if he had wanted to do so. He chose to leave. Remember?

It was a joke, Sharon. I like giving people a hard time. It's part of my charm.

Actually, most consider meth more of a poor man's drug, whereas cocaine is more of a rich man's drug. But that's not to say that an affluent person would never use it. This probably wasn't the first time he'd used the stuff as he'd been going to that club a lot, and gay clubs are notorious for drugs.
