Good choice! Hearts of Oak is the ditty they used to beat to quarters. -
Well, yeah. Except they screw around. :-).

October 22, 2000 Malibu, CA Will We decided to head to our house first, which kind of freaked me out, since I hadn’t been back since I’d left it in complete disarray. I hadn’t really expected that Michael would be there waiting to pick up JJ. It may have been nice to have JJ there when I got home, but it really didn’t matter all that much to me. Besides, that way we got rid of his bitchy presence. I noticed that I had a message on my phone. I remembered to give Stef an apo

It requires a lot of research to work with historical events. When Granger sails off, I'll have a little more play. And you're absolutely right about the sex of the child. That could be interesting.

I'm thinking that for the 9-11 story, I may break from tradition and write it in 3rd person.

Yes, they are. And dangerous, especially if you're 'in power'.
-
I think that you got Spencer down perfectly.
-
I know, right? We're still stuck in port. Well, I suspect it will remain that way for a bit.

I think George's parents may wonder if their younger son (and his wife) may eclipse them politically. I think they know Granger is a true sprig of the nobility, and carries those interests with him.

I'm not sure. I like having him involved in pivotal events, because it brings them to life for all of us (inasmuch as I can write it that way). They do require more research, though. I think that it becomes tougher, as you noted, when he becomes more senior, but rest assured I'll figure a way around things. There are some lines I can't cross, though. It's been explained to me that Granger can't have sex with truly heroic figures of the era (the most obvious being Nelson). I guess that would extend to Wellington, too, although it would have been good for him, because I always felt like he had a stick up his ass. I think that you're right about this one.

April 18, 1797 They toasted the news that Davina was with child, all four of them exuberant with their joy. At the core level, it was their duty to ensure the continuation of their houses, of their dynasties. Of the four, Granger was the only one who had done that effectively, at least until now. Granger looked over at Cavendish and noted that he was slightly introspective, and concluded that his mood was caused by the fact that he wasn’t even married yet. Granger w

True, but that's not the issue. The issue is who is at fault. Wade didn't plan for her to get beaten up. Where is his guilt in this?
-
Protection wasn't much of an issue back then.
-
Stef is fun to write!
-
I rarely kill off narrators.
-
The next one is a little more fun.

It was a tough year. A year of revolutions. I'm sorry for your loss.

What makes you think Wade was listening to Linkin Park? ;-) -
Wade merely passed on the truth. If it is indeed Mary Ellen who was beaten up, it is her owm scheming that caused it. Of course, the real blame must fall on Elizabeth Danfield.
-
Like you were around back then. You probably thought Spago was good. :-)
-
Shrinks are predictable. And for the record, I don't think Wade should feel guilty at all.

Actually, it was Carl Haupt's brother Jason who beat up his girlfriend. Chitworth is just the guy passing the news on to Matt.

I'm a sucker for a guy who's good at stats.

October 22, 2000 Stanford University Palo Alto, CA Wade I heard a noise, a familiar noise, trying to wake me up, but I ignored it and just snuggled into Carullo. He had such an awesome body, so massive and hard, yet so soft. My mind was foggy, from being partially asleep, and from still being a little wasted. I lay there, in a daze, until I heard the noise again. Then two forces conspired to bring me fully awake in the space of just a few seconds. The first was my recogniti
