Clav foxx, I couldn't be any happier for you both. *hug* And I agree with TC, I don't think anyone is going to mind you posting that here. I think people come here looking to read a story like yours, to be uplifted by it.

Love ya! *kiss*

Nudging TC aside to be first in line...Use me, use me!! *LOL* (but I think "all" might be a bit ambitious. *grin*)

BJ, me? Forget something? Nah...could never happen! *LOL* Ummm...but, well...you might have to refresh my memory on this one. At your feet?? Perhaps if you gave a demonstration?? *weg*

*LMAO* I gave a printout of those dating rules to my daughter, Sherri...she got a good laugh from them, then kind of rolled her eyes and tossed them out. I don't take that as a good sign. *LOL*

Jman, that's great news! I wish them luck in the upcoming championship!

Digging once again into the archives...

Your eyes
Glistening with the early rays
Of the awakening sun
Driving forth the dark terrors
Of the fleeing night
Shining with the dawn
Of the new day's dreams
Full of the bright promise
Of desires fullfilled

Your eyes
Windows unto your soul
Releasing the inner beauty
Of the flawless gem
Cut with the sure, skilled hands
Of a master craftsman
Every stunning facet capturing an refracting
In a glorious explosion
of dazzling colors
The light that shines from within

Your eyes
Mirror to my soul
Reflecting back to me
Only that which is good and pure
While still loving the rest
Revealing to me the man you see
The man, that with your love
And gentle nurturing
I will be

foxx: pulling out my transcript of the night's Truth or Dare game between BJ and Clav and printing it here
Note: these two were plastered so if you find it hard to follow, it's not you. Believe me, Husky and I were confused much of the time too! ROTFL

BJ: Truth or Dare?
Clav: (sits for a minute glassy-eyed looking at BJ who looks back smirking) Huh?
BJ: Huh?
Clav: What did you say?
BJ: Are you going to play?
Clav: Play what?
BJ: (eyes crossing, foxx quickly smacks her forehead to help uncross them) Truth or Dare?
Clav: Oh. Who's turn is it?
BJ: Mine. No, wait. Yours. I don't remember. Do you want a truth or a dare?
Clav: Dare.
BJ: Hmmmmmm. (a few minutes pass) Oh! I have a really good one. Ready?
Clav: Uh? Sure. I thought the bottle was empty.
BJ: Huh? Oh. Not a body shot this time. This is better.
Clav: Oh, okay. What is it?
BJ: Wait a minute. I gotta think first.
(Husky and foxx look at each other, shake heads and settle back for a little nap, knowing this could take a few minutes and their supervision isn't needed during this time as "thinking" meant a drunken haze had covered the game-players' eyes for a while.)
BJ: Okay. I got it. You have to go to the Herald tomorrow (being to giggle) and post a message (giggling hard) that says, "I do to snore."
Clav: What? I'm not going to do that.
BJ: You said dare. You have to. Oh and you have to add "and I grovel at BJ's feet." (giggling even harder) See, I told you this was good.
Clav: Okay. Truth or Dare?
BJ: Dare. I'm not scared of you.
Clav: You have to post a retraction after my post that says you made me say that but it's not true.
BJ: (voice raising a few pitches) You can't do that. You can't retract dares.
BJ/Clav: (arguing and talking at same time about definitions of dares, retractions, who agreed to dares, etc. Husky and foxx couldn't keep up)
BJ: Let's ask the judges. Can he make me retract his dare? Huh? Is that fair?
Judges (Husky and foxx): (shaking heads and laughing) No. Retractions aren't fair.
Clav: Oh. Okay. Then let me think.

(it was at this point that Husky and foxx realized the game wasn't going to get out of hand and they let the two play and got some much needed sleep.)





Hope that helps you, Clav....*grin*

Clav: btw foxx, you can polish up my reputation all you want...it's not like it couldn't use a bit of polishing. *chuckle* (And well, think of how much fun it will be sullying it again! *weg*)
Tue Jul 20 08:08:12 1999
foxx Hey, I'm having a heck of a good time just reporting facts, Clav.... I don't have to make anything up! You gave me so much material in one weekend that I can play with for the next month!
2nd year gold star membership Tue Jul 20 08:08:27 1999
Clav: *LMAO*

Pure fabrication!

Isn't it?
2nd year gold star membership Tue Jul 20 08:10:49 1999
Clav: The previous post was in reference to one that you made yesterday, about my snoring
Tue Jul 20 08:15:13 1999
foxx: Clav, give it up. You are just gonna have to face reality. Toooooo much evidence to fight. We have the tapes, the pictures, the transcripts, the witnesses. But we could take it to trial if you really want to. It's an open/shut case: YOU SNORE!
2nd year gold star membership Tue Jul 20 08:15:23 1999
Clav: *Chuckle*...that last one got cut short...I tried to read the backs to get the wording of the post and it sent what I had already typed...

Isn't ruining a bad reputation and oxymoron?

*chuckle*
2nd year gold star membership Tue Jul 20 08:17:48 1999
Clav: But, I already admitted that I snore in here. Doesn't that in fact then cancel out the dare? How can I admit what I've already admitted to? That wouldn't be an admission, but a reaffirmation, hence no longer covered by the dare which specifically used the word "admit." hands folded across my chest, a smug look on my face...
Tue Jul 20 08:18:35 1999
Gary: ...Hmmm...Male bride's maids...only Foxx would go that route...

..well I'll want a pink dress...rather short...like to show off my legs...low cut also...but not so low that the tissue hangs out..Geeezz...and dark hose with that seam up the back would be nice too...high heals...about 6" 'ers...(have never been that tall would be nice..Fem would love those)......ohhh and sexy undies too if I'm going...I'm going in style...none of that cheap crap..Foxx...Victorias or nothing....and bring my balls with ya... I'll have to find someone else to pass them on to...can't have a married woman playing with my balls... (quite Clav)...
Tue Jul 20 08:21:35 1999
Gary: ...Ahhhh...Sherri...dirt roads...????...Hmmmm...Classy lady... *LMAO
Tue Jul 20 08:24:16 1999
foxx: *laughing hard and wiping at the tears* Oh, Gary.... I have got to see you all dressed up like that. As detailed as that description is, I think you have a photo someplace of you looking just like that!

as for the balls....they are MINE. *cradling them close to myself* You can't take back what you already gave me. You'll just have to find new balls, okay.
Tue Jul 20 08:28:20 1999
foxx: Hmmmmm.... I think the point is, Clav, that you need to admit you snore.... period... whether it's in the Herald (quoting Clav's own post: "But, I already admitted that I snore in here.") or it's in bed with three women.

All that convoluted discussion of yours is unnecessary. ROTFL
2nd year gold star membership Tue Jul 20 08:32:07 1999
Clav: I need to be more careful around an english major...*LOL*

Ok...

I admitted the other day that I do snore, and that admission was made here in the Herald. proof reading this time...*chuckle*

Therefore, further admission is not required....

Though...the thought of being at BJ's feet... stroking my chin thoughtfully...
1st year gold star membership Tue Jul 20 4:27:41 1999
WHOS YOUR DADDY: Clav You had 3 women in bed with You *surprized look*
You lucky dog You and I suppose sharing wasnt on Your Mind either eh LOL!!
Tue Jul 20 5:10:54 1999
~BJ~: Ahhh foxx babes...he never did it at my feet...and that was part of the DARE......soooo I guess that means I am the WINNER!!!! *sticking tongue out at Clav*

Clav....you silly thing you was to drunk to remember the game....even to remember ow I got those wet hand prints *LMAO*......Hmmmm if you do go to my feet, ya think you could maybe try that toe thing that was going on in the Hot Tub.....*grin*

I was at the Dr. today and he told me NEVER to go off the medication again like I did this weekend.....DAMN personality changes will keep coming........see I have no idea who that was this weekend...*shy look*
Tue Jul 20 5:54:00 1999
foxx: grabbing BJ's script and running out the door I liked the person I met this weekend, so I'm gonna bring her back!
Tue Jul 20 7:12:03 1999
HUSKY: I guess I will be the last to post a thanks to Mi-jah and terablet seeing how I have only been home for about an hours time since sunday and most of that BJ and foxx was on my puter. (I was supose to be going to Neb. today but a couple things got in my way...mostly I missed my flight by 5 minutes....darn wrecks on the interstate any way*chuckle) I had a great time at the party, being one of the reporters and doing my share to get all the ladies drunk.

I was nice meeting all those I had not met before...It was great seeing all those I had met before.

Now for the bun in the oven...I have not been feeling well in the mornings and the monster keep growling every time I eat, foxx maybe you and BJ need to come by to do a check up soon, it probably is a good thing I missed my flight....foxx I also think next time we need to investigate the property a bit further...

again I really had a great time this year....have a great day everyone see ya next time if not before!
Tue Jul 20 7:30:03 1999
foxx: Grabbing my black bag That doesn't sound good, Husky. I think we need to definitely find out what's going on, but it may mean some probing and investigation up on the examination table... *wink wink*

and yeah, I'll bet after what you and I found in the barn, we could probably find a few other dungeons around there! *grin*
Tue Jul 20 7:39:24 1999
HUSKY:foxx we did not even go into the dungeon under the house...HHHHMmmmm we shall remember that next time....
2nd year gold star membership Tue Jul 20 8:38:01 1999
Clav: WYD...Georgia wasn't even on my mind! *LOL* I was busily sawing about 3 cords of wood while those 3 ladies...errr, then two...then three, then two women shared my bed...(Sherri had a bit of a problem with being shoved off the edge! *LOL*)

Shaking my head sadly...I had 3 women in bed and kept shoving them out???

BJ...hand prints?? Puzzled look...Why, I don't have a clue what you are talking about?!?!? Mayhaps if we got together and you refreshed my memory....*weg*

So...anyway....Prostrating myself at BJs feet...you are right BJ....I DO snore! Ok, so...now that I'm down here can I do anything for ya? *weg*

(foxx, did I distract her enough for you to make a clean get away with that script?)
Tue Jul 20 8:49:06 1999
~BJ~ Ok....this is some thing I found a long time ago....I hung it in my daughters locker along with our pictures.....thought I would share with a special little friend of mine....*wink*.....




Gift of Love

You don’t love me!
How many times have your kids laid that one on you?
And how many times have you as a parents, resisted the urge to tell them how much?
Someday when my children are old enough to understand the logic that motivates a mother, I’ll tell them.
I loved you enough to bug you about where you were going, with whom, and what time you would get home.
I loved you enough to insist you buy a bike with your own money that you could afford.
I loved you enough to be silent and let you discover your friend was a creep
I loved you enough to make you return a Milky Way with a bite out of it to a drug store and confess, "I stole this"
I loved you enough to stand over you for two hours while you cleaned your room, a job that would of taken me 15 minutes.
I loved you enough you say "Yes, you can go to Disney World on Mother's Day."
I loved you enough to let you see anger, disappointment, disgust, and tears in my eyes.
I loved you enough not to make excuses for your lack of respect or bad manners.
I loved you enough to admit that I was wrong and ask for your forgiveness.
I loved you enough to ignore what every other Mother did or said.
I loved you enough to let you stumble, fall, hurt, and fail.
I loved you enough to let you assume the responsibility for your own actions at age 6, 10, or 16.
I loved you enough to figure you would lie about the part being chaperoned, but forgave you for it after discovering I was right.
I loved you enough to accept you for what you are, not what I wanted you to be.
But most of all. I loved you enough to say no when you hated me for it. That was hardest part of all.....

Clav: Ah...now, that strikes a cord...each line that I read. Thanks for posting that BJ...

There are times when saying no is the hardest thing to do...and we know they don't understand, we just hope that someday they will and will have the strength to say it to their children when they must...
Tue Jul 20 8:58:53 1999
foxx: *smiling* Thank you.....
Tue Jul 20 9:01:47 1999
~BJ~:Your welcome babes.....*wink*...
Wed Jul 21 6:36:12 1999
foxx: After much begging, pleading, whining, and finally pulling out the knee pads and begging, pleading, and whining some more, Husky consented to let me post his recipe for those special daq's of his. (BTW.... HE was the one begging, pleading, and whining for me not to post ..... I think you'll see why in a minute! *wink*)

Fresh strawberries.... lots of them
Rum..... lots of that (but remember where you hide the bottle)
Daq mix.... the frozen stuff (hey, why do you think these are called frozen daq's? LOL)
Ice..... enough to give foxx a headache as the blender crunches it up
(wait, maybe the headache came after the daq's were gone??? I don't remember)

Mix all the above in a blender until slushy. And then shoe everyone out of the kitchen for the special ingredient.

searching my notes for the special ingredient's name Hmmmmm.... can't seem to find what he called it but I do have this quote from him: "It's something only I can make."

Hmmmmmmm..... I've "milked" him for what he means by that exactly, but I don't seem to be getting anywhere with him, except for a lot of "ahhhhhh" and "ohhhhh" and "try me again in a hour; I might talk then"...... *giggling*
Wed Jul 21 6:43:00 1999
Tin Cup: Damn am I glad I was drinking beer! LMAO
Wed Jul 21 6:47:25 1999
~BJ~: foxx....I told you I thought that was cool whop.....*licking my lips*
Wed Jul 21 6:48:58 1999
~BJ~: whop= whip

see I was all excited........
2nd year gold star membership Wed Jul 21 7:23:01 1999
Clav: Dawning realization.....

Oh...YUCK!!

No wonder it took so long between batches...he had to make sure he really shook up the "special ingredient!!"

Suddenly wishing I had stuck with the beer...

Dashing off for the Scope...

*~Special~*:
"One Honest Heart"

Times are tough on an honest heart
People don't follow through with what they start
Lyin' eyes looking at me up and down
Makin' talk that's only cheap
Makin' promises they never keep
But I keep lookin' for what I still haven't found..

One honest heart
that I can believe in
Two lovin' arms that will never let me go
One good man that I can count on
It shouldn't be so hard
Finding one honest heart

Now I've been close a time or two
I thought I saw my dream comin' true
But I was just livin' in a fairy tale
I won't play the fool again
I won't play a game I can't win
But I still have faith and I keep tellin' myself..

There's one honest heart
that I can believe in
Two lovin' arms that will never let me go
One good man that I can count on
It shouldn't be so hard
Findin' one honest heart..

I don't think I'm asking too much
Just once in my life I want to be touched by...
One one good man..
One honest heart..
One good man.. one honest heart..
