Marie,

I am always grateful for your comments... I never particularly thought of Murdoch as a comedy relief, but something about your comment sort of reminded me / oh yeah, that is kind of funny.

heheh

From Chapter 68:

". . .radiating disapproval and then banging the gavel and announcing to everyone present, including strangers, that he had not done right by his family, and his obligation to his daughters was merely to pay for their support."

"Not done right by his family" can mean so many things - is this more Colson backstory to be revealed . . . and "merely to pay for their support" also has an unsettling tone . . .

Yep - what she said!  ;D

You can say that again!

Oops, sorry - my mind wandered!   ;D

It sure does - poor Colson!  But I really like Stew  - and the legal stuff is pitch perfect!

Amos sure is a Grade A double-dyed jackass - but everytime he makes an appearance I can't help but picture him in his teddy and garter belt!   ;D

“You fuddy duddy!” Carol exclaimed before the door shut.

Fuddy duddy?  LOL!!!  I love that - go, Carol!
