A saddle is fine, but they should have a towel or something under them...

Spoiler:
Louise (or anyone else): I don't understand the 'before Bill' part of this sentence...
"It was after five when Ellery headed back to Laramie from Elk Mountain, the mystery of Brad Sevigny still rankling in his mind. Before Bill, he would return to the university and catch the homecoming summer school students filing back into Langley Hall, smiling indulgently at the girls and impressing the boys and digging for the truth… but his chest was aching with sympathy for the parents who had inexplicably lost an only child, and he knew without the autopsy or the real identity of the mysterious roommate, he would be shooting in the dark."
That was a nice chapter, and I am looking forward to Mr. Coyote's return in the next one. ;D

I am a Java and C++ girl myself!

I use a proprietary tool set on top of a C library. I dont actually have to USE the third generation languages myself, it is in a specialized area of workflow design for internal problem management.
That sounds so icky. Ew ew ew.

I fixed it. I was pretty hot, cranky, and waiting desperately for a thunderstorm to break the humidity at the time I wrote that. You, lia, and of course, Leslie have massaged Chapter er, 85 into readable shape now.

and might I add...
since I have already written three chapters today, I am sitting at home, sipping Vittel mineralwater and trying out the new chat client! Anyone who would like to come chat, hurry up!
