oh Lucise, you are the best.  And now the challenge:  Hugh... on a horse?

Well, I wrote a lengthy and brilliant post this morning and it apparently disappeared into the ether. So:

Thank you, Leslie, for the information about the international time zones and how they compare to Eastern Daylight Time. I was getting a headache. And next month, it all changes; I'm going to have to figure out who changes times and who does not! I'm getting a headache again.

I have added a new feature to the Locations Update: our first names. I've got a few already, based on those who have included their names in their recent posts. I know I should have more, but I have a terrible memory for names. And I don't want to include those who have only given me their names in PMs. So if you would like to have your first name added to your web name in this list, please post the info or PM me.

Here's the latest:

just read the last two chapters posted... wow! They were seriously good, I'm loving Ellery more and more every day, insecurities and all. Ch. 26 just breaks my heart.
‘cause the truth is, I already give him everythin’ I got to give, more than I ever even knew I had; ‘n it all for him, all of it, him who is my brother, my father, my child, my friend, my lover, my heart, my soul; my Ennis.

Lucise,
I absolutely love the Dashing Men in Black! :o
Thank you!

What Jack remembered and craved in a way he could neither help nor understand was the time that distant summer on Brokeback when Ennis had come up behind him and pulled him close, the silent embrace satisfying some shared and sexless hunger.   -Annie Proulx (Icon by alighttofollow)
