One thing that I think will keep Rory around: Luke. Not romantically as much as Rory NEEDS a brother. He needs a father figure around too but that will take time to sink in past his "issues". A lot of those issues come from being male and growing up strictly around women. You wanna know why Rory is a little b*tch? Well- there you are. If he goes back to granny, he might as well trade in his balls on a used vagina.

If I remember 16, and I do, no breeze was necessary.

Welcome aboard and Happy New Year!

He has run out of the alien anti-aging serum and it's all hitting him at once like a freight train.

Happy Birthday Green one! Best wishes for a great year.

Here's an idea for a sequel Dom: A Match Made In Hell the Valley Dennis Gordon goes to UCLA where he meets Aaron Keslin. The happy couple go about causing havoc and driving each other crazy. Fun and gunfire are sure to follow!

Let's all just pretend that 2005 never happened. Maybe it will go away.

I've been a bit busy with the holidaze and haven't had much of a chance to work with it.

I resolve to eat more, drink more, get laid and get into at least one fight with a redneck.

I can quit anytime I want... which is usually after I've read the latest update of the latest story. See? I'm in complete control.

Shrinks can't cure dense.

Remember that Gina had cancer and was sick for a long time. Two or three years means a lot during that part of a kids life.

Old Hippies never die. They just dry us up and smoke us. But seriously folks, old hippies ought to be an endangered species. Those of us in the wild should probably be tagged and studied like bears or whales.

Belch or fart real loud. In disgust she'll stop singing and scold you for your indescretion. She may even open the windows.

I get this sometimes and it usually takes a shot to get rid of it. Hope you feel better.

carmichael- Your picks for Rory and Luke are spot on. Luke is major cute! If they use this Aaron, I can understand how he gets away with murder. -JS

You think that Jonathan would mind if we posted it in the poetry forum?

Christmas goodies are no fun in moderation. URP!

I can't believe that you made a little girl cry. She was probably sitting on something uncomfortable like her brothers ninja throwing stars.

A few chapters back Aaron described Seth as his parents "little prince"- implying that he is a spoiled brat. I think that this was when Seth first appeared out of the shadows. It appears to have worked on Rory and quite a few readers didn't like the kid hiding under the cap either. I wonder if Aaron didn't intentionally create a bad first impression of Seth to eliminate the competetion. Sidebar: In case you didn't know, Jouneyman and EleCivil are both accomplished writers in their own right. It would be well worth it to go hunt down their stories while you are waiting for Dom's next chapter.

Thanks guys I've got to sweat it out until Jan 4th. Waiting to get an answer to something like this sux. Thanks for your kind words.

doms blog got me wondering, why do people have broken logic. broken logic isn't broken in the eyes of the person expressing it. Typically it is part of a reasoning process that leaves out a step or two. One of the examples was Katrina as a manifestation of the wrath of god against homosexuals. The facts missing from this premise are that 1) the gay district of New Orleans was hardly touched 2) the victims of Katrina were either too poor or old to get out of the way- not homosexuals 3) Katrina was a massive event that did damage from Florida to Texas striking heathen towns and those towns with churches on every street corner with the same fury. Usually the holes in broken logic are big enough to drive a super-tanker through. Just look for the holes and point them out. That's usually enough. Sometimes the fallacy of their position is uncovered and they grasp at straws trying not to be wrong. That's OK because it only makes them look more ignorant.

I've got this little problem. It's called Traumatic Glaucoma. Granted anything that can make you go blind is pretty traumatic in itself but this refurs to a specific type of glaucoma that occurs sometimes many years after blunt force type injury to the eyes. Like getting punched in the eyes. My teen years were particulary difficult. I was outted at the age of 13 the summer before 7th grade started in a redneck town in Mississippi. By my count I've had twenty something concussions, 6 broken bones, my right knee had to be reconstructed. There were a couple of times I came really close to dying. I live with pain all the time. Forgive me if I'm a little twitchy. I've got Post Traumatic Stress Disorder. Whenever I'm in a room, I look for something that would serve as a weapon and an exit- just in case. I have nightmares so bad that I can't sleep in the same bed with another person. I try not to get too caught up in this crap. It's depressing and painful to think about it. For years I drank or smoked enough weed to pass out every night. I've been clean and sober since the October before last. I've been taking better care of myself. That's how my eye condition was diagnosed. A little background. What's bugging me is that Jan. 4th I have another appointment to see how my eyes are doing and I'm just plain scared. That's hard for me. The way I survived for many years was to NOT show fear. If I did, I was a goner. I learned to survive by fighting dirtier than the people that were tormenting me. I learned to ignore a tremendous amount of pain so that I could dish it out. I hate being afraid. It sucks big time. What's worse is that it makes me angry to think of WHY I've got this problem. I don't like how I feel and I'm not sure what to do about it. I want to get high but I can't. That shit was slowly destroying my life. I want to drink myself into a stupor but that isn't going to help either. It's hard to carry this kind of stuff around inside this time of year with the holidays and all. I don't like what I'm feeling but all I can do is let it ride.

Monopoly!? What a brilliant line. Why didn't I ever think of it?
