    Enjoying it immensely so far Dave. Already I've seen several thoughts and emotions I had while I was a dub and contemplating an exit. Can't wait for the rest!

    Are you typing right now? Or is Han Solo now frozen in carbonite and we have to wait and wait?

    Sorry guys, because of the two post a day rule I can't post part three until tomorrow.

    It's the best of the three so far.

    I'll put it up in 9 hours and 30 something minutes.

    Come on now Tracy, I do have a little class. Besides, I needed something that made me look good while driving my Porsche.

    I wasn't always the class clown. I had a brain for a little while. Now don't give me any more shit or I'll be forced to use it!

    Excellent stuff.

    Not only are you a self made man ( I really respect graphic artists having worked for World Color Press at one time), you're also one hell of a story teller.

    MORE MORE MORE...not since Amazing has anyone grabbed my attention with their tales like this.

    OK, here is a little cut and paste from part three. This is all you get for tonight. You'll just have to wait 9 hours and twenty something minutes for the rest.

    I headed back up to the art department and the secretary had a note from my escort. He had found out where the brother from my old hall was and left me a note. It was Tuesday night and I had to go with the kid from the art department to the book study. I told him I would meet up with him later and we would go to the hall at Bethel. I wanted to hunt down the guy from my old hall first. I got the instruction on how to find his room and headed to it right after dinner time (which again, I sat alone in my room admiring my sink faucet.) I then headed to go see the brother from my old hall. When I found the right building I went up to the right floor and knocked at the door. The kid I new back in my old hall answered the door with a shocked look on his face that very nervously turned into a half smile. He asked what I was doing there and I told him. Then he invited me into the apartment. I had been in several rooms of the people in the art department and the guy from the purchasing department and most of them were the size of a walk in closet that had a bed that came out of the wall.

    This was a full blown two bedroom apartment with a small living room. I knew he had only been there a few mounts and I had heard the story about how someone has to die off or get kicked out to get a larger room but this was a damn Palace compared to every one else's dump. I looked around and asked him how he got such a nice place after only being there for a few mounts. He told me that he was Leo Greenlees (a governing body members new room mate). I looked at him again and asked how di that happen? he backed up a few paces and in a low soft voice said what I had heard several times before "You can't tell anyone I told you this but." I had heard that intro to a statement several time before on this trip, but this one I was dying to hear.

    He told me that Leo's last room mate had to leave Bethel so Leo asked him to be his new room mate. I asked him why Leo's last room mate had to leave Bethel. He told me that he wasn't supposed to tell any one. I looked him straight in the eye (I have this mean kind of "I'll rip your throat out kind of look when I want to, I don't know where I got it, I think I had it as a baby) I told him that if one more person told me in a quiet voice not to tell anyone something they were about to tell me I was going to blow up. He sat down and repeated his request for me to keep what he was about to tell me, to myself. He said the average brother might not understand. I said, Just tell me!

    He said that Leo's last room mate had been kicked out of Bethel because he would get new young brothers drunk and then bring them up to his room and have sex with them in their butt. Yes, he actually said have sex with them in their butt. I didn't know whether to laugh my ass off or drop to the floor in a state of shock. I then asked him if his old room mate was gay. He looked at me a little funny and asked me what did I think. I didn't know Leo Greenlees from Mr. Green Jeans so I didn't know what to think at that point.

    hehehe, I think Dave just threatened me.....with his giant......BRAIN!

    I'm all atwitter with nervouseness. Seriously, I'm sure you looked damn fine in your Armani, and I'll bet they had to give a "local needs" talk after you left warning the poor Bethelites against lusting after worldy things....and those poor deprived Bethelite sisters had to be warned against lusting after spiritually weak, materialistic brothers like yourself!

    Darn it, Dave, I am a somewhat slow reader. You should have had part 3 written by now, but I can't find it anywhere. What's the hold up man?

    ****Taps foot**** I'm waiting...............

    The two thread limit per day. Part 3 will be up in full tomorrow.
