Yup, I put up an avatar of me, so people would see how wonderfully friendly and outgoing I am!

And I sort of figured Ellery's hand was rubbing up Ennis's leg.  He just can't keep his hands off that boy!

We don't have to "see" you to know that Louise,
 
But it is nice "seeing" you all the same.

Time doesn't stand still and much as we like the young Ennis, he is getting a bit older now. Do you folks think he may be starting to look a little like this?

[louisev]

oh my... not yet Jo please, not yet...!

I see you have one of Ennis's patented Mr. Coyote quotes on your sig line... quite smartly done!

I think he looks quite hunky. But that's just me!

hey Jo, if you are still around, and anyone else up at this magical hour, I am lurking in chat for a while, trying to get my mind off a rather loud headache.

Louise, i thought I would do a little rersearch.  So I went to Google and looked up the Kinsey scale.  Then I discovered there is a Klein scale.  Klein modified the Kinsey scale to 1 to 7 instead of 0 to 6, using the same definitions as Kinsey.  He went further, and stated that the scale should be aapplied to different stages in one's life, starting with the last twelve months, and then going back, applying the scale to various stages, e.g. adolescence, 20s, 30s, etc.  So...Ellery would be a definite 6 on the Kinsey scale and a definite 7 on the Klein scale.  So, I think that answers your question, Fred.

Ennis would be a 7 on the Klein scale for the last 12 months, but a 6 on the klein scale for the married period and a 7 for the Brokeback Mountain period.

Dupree on the Klein scale would be a 2 or a 3 for now.  What will develop for him is up to Louise!

Does this help or middy the waters?

I actually think that is very interesting, Scudder and didn't muddy anything for me. Thanks for this info!

It does reinforce my own belief that one's apprehension of one's sexual behavior and experience of it is subject to change, depending upon environment, relationships, and other factors, so I'd go along with that Klein scale model.

Wow awesome Louise!


Btw, do we have a description for Sally?  She needs to git into the Gallery! 

Sally, Sally... no, we dont have a description as yet.  If someone comes up with a Sally before I write the wedding chapter then she's yours!

Caveat:  she shouldn't be smoking hot though.  She is marrying Ben after all.
