Oh, okay. I thought they had color film though, which explains why all of those old pictures were in black and white |

Work is a good thing! Well, actually, work is a crappy thing, but the money is a good thing!
Edit: By the way, when you get a free moment (after finishing work and Chapter 55) I e-mailed you something you'll probably like to read |

Hope you get lots more. |
Thanks!
So far it's "technical odd jobs" through OnForce.Com and TekSource.Com. It isn't much, but it's something that at least brings in a little cash to keep some bills paid and not much else. So far it's only my nostrils that're above water. |

Ohyeah!
The really crappy thing is getting injured at work. Which is what happened to me last Tuesday when a collapsible 8-foot conference table fell on me from behind. That sure shortened that workday.
The other fun part was going to the hospital (and running out of time waiting for someone to look at me) and finding out I have high blood pressure. I already knew it was a little high, but this time the machine that took my BP set off an alarm. I forget the bottom number, the top one was 220.

make it 100 points and we will talk
normal BP:
120 systolic
80 diastolic
so yeah its a little high
At the moment people are pushing for 115 sys 75 dia to be the norm as at even at 120 over 80 there is pre-hypertention and risk of heart problems later on.
As you can probably tell the US is going to be in for a wake up call in the next few years if this happens i think every other person will be considered over the guide of 'norm' blood pressure.
The UK is not far behind though _________________ A Pro From Dover.

I think that's just the drug companies wanting more money Mine averages around 125 over 77, my doctor says that's good course when I first went on my meds it was like 175 over 90 something. _________________ "Political Correctness is tyranny with manners." Charlton Heston

I have a quick question. Where does the "Will You" Chapter of the Clarence and Cindy story fall in relation to the chapters of SOtS? I'm guessing between 52 and 53, right?
And are there still plans on doing a separate story line with just Clarence and Cindy? Or are you just going to stick with keeping it in the SOtS chapters? |

I believe you are correct with the positioning of the Will You chapter (one of my favs by the way... but thats only as it was my idea LOL).
As for them getting their own story I'd wait for the foxmeister to answer that . _________________ A Pro From Dover.

More between Chapters 51 and 52, after Clarence is showing more of his self-confidence beginning to build and after their slight encounter in the garage on Thanksgiving day

Plans, yes. And yes, they'll still stay in The Story's storyline. When and if I get the chance to do their own Story, I wish I could say. |

A separate timeline with links back and forth between the two stories would probably work as a compromise. And I think I speak for most of those assembled when I say that the two of them having their own story would probably eclipse the popularity of the main characters! |
