Thanks everyone.
I am stressing about the credit report, so I did another of those "free" things through my bank for my credit report (creditreport.com - the last one I did was from my turbotax - it gave me a link for a free credit report and was a different company), and uh.... totally way different from the last one. All the same info shows, but the number is SUPER WAY HIGHER. I was terrified by that last number....
I had friends whose apartment overlooked the back door of a funeral home. Chocolate is much better.
There's a condo a few blocks from here where the balconies on one side overlook the crematorium chimney.
So my husband was able to confirm that what we thought were coyotes were actually TWO packs of wild dogs. He confirmed this when they came up into our south field just at dusk. That's less than a hundred yards from the house. So not good news.
So I've spent the last hour walking through the field with my husband, sister, and brother in law, hunting dogs. And, since I was the slowest on my feet, guess who ended up with the weakest gun?
And the most irritating part? We didn't get the damned dogs!
Two words:
Gatling gun.
Two words: How Itzer
There is no kill like overkill?
I can respect your attitude. and your firepower.
... well there's a last post to stumble into the Cantina on. And I thought living in the shadow of the tar sands left a bad taste on your tongue. Yeesh.
This reminds me, I need to catch up online.
I'm a couple of episodes behind....
Btw Fen, isn't there a Castle thread in the TV section? And if not, shouldn't there be??
Morning cantinas
It seems that the world hasn't melted yet so I've got some coffee and I'll wait for it to start.
I have to take what seems like half of my house to the charity shop this morning. After that, it's all the way.
I was planning on doing the thing today, myself. But I went and fell asleep. Maybe I can get a few hundred done tonight, if little debio doesn't hog the computer for youtube.
Morning all.
Sleep? Wasn't that one of the things someone told me I should live without now I'm a writer, that and showers and food and cleaning. I hav my priorities so wrong.
Is little Debio old enough to comprehend that if daddy is allowed to use the computer then he'll be able to earn enough money to buy little debio a computer of his own?
Yo know actually I'm not sure I'd go for a bribe like that, but it's worth a try.
Right, off to get rid of the stuff and hopefully come back with cheap books this time.
I got rid of the stuff, but the cheap books were all useless. I mean, do I look like the kind of person who reads Mills and Boon?Right, off to get rid of the stuff and hopefully come back with cheap books this time.

anyone?
You mean that you didn't know who they were? At least now you're warned. I think the word you need to go with isWell, since I had to go google Mills and Boon, and you happened to add the smiley, I'm gunna go with....no?
You know it generally does that when it gets dark, you need one of thesewhen it got dark it got cold, now I'm trying to warm up again.
...Darn it, now I crave chocolate!
Thought 1: Violence is unnecessary in most situations. But when it is needed, there is no halfway. You go all the way. The dead don't come back to complain.
I have been debating two thoughts on violence for my MC, as in how he views violence. I've been afraid to ask folks in the Cantina because it's dangerous, you bloodthirsty people you.
Thought 1: Violence is unnecessary in most situations. But when it is needed, there is no halfway. You go all the way. The dead don't come back to complain.
Though 2: Use only that amount of violence necessary to accomplish your goal. Wound where wounding will do. Kill where killing is needed.
So, since everyone is in the mood, what do you think? This is for entertainment purposes only.
I figured Cantinaites would go for 1. That's why I asked. you blood thirsty people you.

And I was thinking heat seaking missiles myself.
Option 2 is good, but normally only works on paper. Very few people shoot-to-wound and live to talk about it.
Not that I don't support neutralizing a target over rampant killing. I suppose it all depends on the situation. Use a fist or a Daisy Cutter when appropriate.
Or just skip the whole thing and see what he does when the situation comes up.
