we can always go back to the very first chapter and start over again!
 :-*

I'm doing that very thing as we speak.  :)

Now I'm about half way through Looking for Answers.

It's just as good the second time, too - I keep noticing new things.
Peace be with y'all,
Fred

hey, can you morph that guy blond and clean shaven and see how Ennislike he becomes?

Clean shaven and with a Cowboy hat on. and in a dark bar...sure,  Jack woulda done a double take when he saw this guy.      He could be our Worrell.

I'll see what how much damage I can do when I get home!  ;)
And this could be his dad ...  :P

that judge looks WAY too honest.

"Good evening Chief" said Carol as Ellery stormed into the office.

"Wes called three times lookin for you ya know" she said.

"I know Carol, and trust me, I'm not happy about being here either.  But the name Worrell keeps popping up like a thorn in my saddle."

Oops!  are we supposed to wait for Louisev??    He he he!  ::)

Ode to Saturday Nights...


Ennis works Saturday Nights at the ..



with his friend Dupree, the Chief Deputy Sheriff's assistant ..



At the bar, Ennis gets abit uneasy when he sees:



and gets really nervous if he sees something like...



He is what you'd call a 'hardass' no-nonsense bouncer.
He goes livid when Lang calls him (buttercup)



.. and he freaks out if there is action like



happening in the Gents (especially if there is a monetary transaction involved).


At about 1 a.m., he goes home to ..



who is wearing cutoffs sitting dangerously low on his hips.

Ennis jumps into the shower for quick 5-minute rub-down and emerges ..



more than ready to get riled and downright fancy!



Woowee!   ;D

Milli,

Great job!

Only one question, how do you manage to find, edit, and post those pictures when you are at work?  I believe you are at work, right?  You must have a few heads turned.  :P
