20 Questions You Never Thought to Ask about the Gospels… But Need to
Have you ever wondered…
1. Why isn't there just one account of Jesus in the Bible? Why four?
2. Why not more than four? Other gospels were written, such as the famous Gospel of Thomas. Why aren't they included in the Bible?
3. Who were the Gospels written for? Not just us. We as twenty-first century readers aren't the only audience. How did the first readers experience the message?
4. Did Matthew, Mark, Luke, and John really write their Gospels? Some scholars say the Gospels were written by others. Why? And…
Get the Newest Online Course on Jesus and the Gospels: Four Portraits, One Jesus
Today we are announcing a brand new online course about Jesus and the Gospels, taught by Mark Strauss.
If you're like most Christians, you probably grew up learning about Jesus, but you've never devoted yourself to serious, sustained study of the life of Jesus as found in the four Gospels.
You might know the Sunday school version of Jesus, but there's so much more to his life and story.
Perhaps you've wondered how to defend your faith—to others, to your family, or even to yourself:
Did Jesus really perform miracles? Was Jesus who he said he was—the Son of God? How can we know? Did Jesus really rise from the dead? What kind of evidence exists, and what's at stake?
Or perhaps you've wondered what Jesus says about today's most pressing issues. What would he say about the…
Calling a Tax Collector and Eating with Sinners – An Excerpt from A Theology of Mark's Gospel
A Theology of Mark's Gospel is the fourth volume in the BTNT series. This landmark textbook, written by leading New Testament scholar David E. Garland, both covers major Markan themes and also provides readers with an in-depth and holistic grasp of Markan theology in the larger context of the Bible.
James reminds us to "keep oneself unstained from the world"; yet God placed us in the world on mission to the people around us. In an age where the Church is trying to walk the line between condoning sin around us and appearing judgmental of others, we must be reminded of Christ's example from this text, and who he spent time with.

Fred Sanders Lectures on the Trinity in the Old Testament
A few months ago I gave a lecture for Torrey Honors Instituteundergrads on discerning the Trinity in the Old Testament, sharing some ideas about how to succeed at that hermeneutical task. I consider it a difficult task because I don't think the doctrine of the Trinity was revealed before the coming of the incarnate Son and the outpoured Spirit, and I take a fairly Augustinian line on the theophanies of the old covenant (i.e. not trinitophanies –here, help yourself to a non-word for a non-thing). But I do believe that, given the revelation of the trinitarian persons through their being sent in the new covenant, they can be retroactively discerned in the text of the Old Testament.

Hi All,
Its been 7 months that I've got married. Its been 2 months that I've started to have such problem. In the early time after my marriage, I was quite good to have sex, without having any erection problem:
Symptoms are as follow,
At foreplay, I get erected fully, sometimes before insersion, it goes down(probably now I always think before insertion whether I would be successfull). If I get it inserted, it get down in the mid-way.
Sometimes, I dont get erected anyway even through foreplay>>
Its getting very frustrated, because I wanted to have sex just like in early stages of my marriage.
Does it because of the reason that I did sex everyday(twice/three times)? Should I reduce doing sex within a week?
Any suggestions?

Small-scale spatial variability of phenoxy acid mineralization potentials in transition zones with a multidisciplinary approach
- Authors:
- Abstract:
- The phenoxy acid group of herbicides is widely used to control broadleaf weeds, and it contaminates groundwater and surface water by leaching from agricultural soil or landfills. Due to the distinct vertical and horizontal gradients in nutrients and hydrologic exchange in transition zones, the challenge of small-scale spatial variability occurs in terms of microbiological and physicochemical properties. We used genomic- and metagenomic-based approaches to reveal the effects of long-term phenoxy acid in situ exposure on the small-scale spatial variability of herbicide mineralization potentials in two transition zones, (1) the interfaces of unsaturated and saturated zones and (2) groundwater and surface water. Small-scale spatial variability of phenoxy acids was previously shown in topsoil; however, such small-scale studies are scarce in subsurface environments. We therefore studied the factors shaping the centimetre-scale vertical variability of phenoxy acid degradation in the interface of unsaturated and saturated zones. We demonstrated more even centimetre-scale vertical distribution of MCPA mineralization potential than that of 2,4-D at the concentration of 1 mg kg-1, and the mineralization activity was linked to the abundance of tfdA genes involved in phenoxy acid degradation depending on the MCPA leaching from the overlying agricultural soil expressed as long-term in situ MCPA exposure. Knowledge on the small-scale variability of mineralization potential is very important to predict the fate and transport of herbicides in aquifer sediments. Due to a more widespread mineralization potential, we used MCPA as a model herbicide to determine the effects of herbicide concentration and additional carbon source on the centimetre-scale vertical distribution of mineralization potential along the unsaturated-saturated zone interface. We determined higher MCPA degradation activity at environmentally relevant concentrations (~15 μg kg-1) compared to high concentrations (10 mg kg-1) indicating the greater number of bacteria adapted to low MCPA concentration. We further showed that the addition of external carbon sources such as soil extract and benzoic acid could stimulate cometabolic degradation in the ring structure rather than the carboxyl group of MCPA. These findings might be important to develop bioremediation strategies for slightly contaminated subsurface environments. Old landfills are major sources of multiple contaminants detected in groundwater and surface water. In this PhD thesis, the mineralization potentials of phenoxy acids in landfill-impacted groundwater-surface water interface were determined. The phenoxy acids were mineralized to different extents in response to changing herbicide mass discharges determined by multiplying the specific groundwater discharge with herbicide concentrations. The differences in mineralization potentials were linked to the initial abundance of tfdA gene classes. The Monodbased kinetic model confirmed the role of initial abundance of tfdA gene classes in the different mineralization potentials of discharge zones. Understanding of the natural attenuation potential of groundwater-surface water transition zones is important for stream water protection. In landfill-impacted groundwater-surface water interface, we further analyzed bacterial communities with a combined genomic-metagenomic approach. Principal component analysis disclosed the clustering of bacterial diversity determined by terminal restriction length polymorphism and 16S rRNA amplicon pyrosequencing according to discharge zones. This comprehensive analysis indicated that specific phenoxy acid degraders proliferated in the streambed sediments in response to changing discharge rates of landfill-phenoxy acids; and the bacterial communities differentiated after mineralization at environmentally relevant and higher concentrations. Our results suggested that the clustering of bacterial communities depending on the landfill impact could be used as microbial ecological indicators for more advanced risk assessment analysis. In conclusion, this PhD thesis provided information about the mineralization potential of phenoxy acids depending on the long-term in situ herbicide exposure and bacterial ecology. The findings based on our multidisciplinary approach including engineering, genomics/metagenomics, bioinformatics and multivariate statistics could contribute to develop novel bioremediation strategies in the future.

How to create an effective online booking system?Asked by DeJuan Parrish on October 25, 2016 at 05:44 PM
Hi. I have setup a booking form through your site for people to book a session and to pay for it. One issue is I'm not sure how I will know about the booking after people click pay with Paypal. Will I receive an email notification with the time and everything they filled out on the form or will I have to check myself after paypal deposits the money?
Also I posted a google calendar into the form so people can see what times are available but this still allows people to accidentally or purposely submit a time that's already booked even though they can see it's booked.
I saw that you have widgets that prevent people from picking the same time from a list of times and widgets that prevent people from picking a date twice. But my sessions can be at anytime of any day for any length so I cannot setup a list of times. I would like to sync my google calendar into the form if possible to prevent double booking and automatically add new bookings. Is that possible?
You can view the form I'm creating at https://form.jotform.com/62980480215153
JotForm Support
Thank you for contacting us.
I recommend also creating an account with us. Use this link https://www.jotform.com/signup to create an account using the same email account you used.
I checked your form and I understand what you were trying to achieve.
I suggest checking as well the JotForm Booking app here http://bookings.jotform.io/
You just need to add the DateTime field on your form and it will be used in integration to the Booking app.
What is does is, it gives the users data of ubooked date/slot in the DateTime calendar. The user will be able to select/book slots that is available. This will also prevent double booking since the already booked slots will be locked/unavailable.
If you add 2 DateTime field on the form, you can also calculate the duration of booked date/time so you can calculate time (session).
Hope this help. Let us know if you need more assistance on this.
JotForm Support
I created a separate thread for you. Please wait for our reply on this thread: https://www.jotform.com/answers/1089060.
Thank you.

Harry Reid Election Results
November 3, 2010 by USA Post
Harry Reid Election Results, A few years ago, people said that the Republican Party was the party leader and was still on the brink of extinction. Things have changed, no?
First was the unexpected victory by Republican Scott Brown in Massachusetts and New Jersey Chris Christie outspoken, charismatic Everyman "who want to reign in out-of-control government spending.
And last night's results continued the trend with the elected candidates of all backgrounds. For example, in addition to the choice of Nikki Haley as the new governor of South Carolina, Marco Rubio, the son of Cuban exiles-earned high-profile Florida's open U.S. Senate seat, given the amount of press coverage and is a political superstar.
In New Mexico, Susana Martinez becomes the first Latina to be elected governor in U.S. He was also responsible for perhaps the best trade policy throughout the campaign season.
One of the most absurd things that Senator Harry Reid, said during the campaign was that he could not understand how Latinos would vote for the Republican Party. Well, the governor-elect of Reid's home state of Nevada, Republican Brian Sandoval, is of Hispanic descent. In a further irony, Sandoval defeated Rory Reid son in the election for governor.
Although it fell a bit short in the Senate, the Republican Party made historic gains, unprecedented in capturing the majority in the House of Representatives. This includes the choice of black Republicans, Tim Scott and South Carolina Lt. Col. Allen West (R) in Florida.
We should also mention that Mark Kirk, a Republican, captured former Obama Senate seat in Illinois, and will take office immediately instead of waiting until January.

Could have been the same route with BA, KLM, Lufthansa etc. - you would have paid around 10 times as much for your ticket, with the same rubbish attitude and problems. I prefer to pay a bucket load less and take the same risk. Incidentally, I've just returned from BG after doing Stansted-Plovdiv with Ryanair for £48 return.
Crap service, a mini riot on the plane before take-off (another post altogether at a later date - maybe), staff that appear to have done no more than a two day training course - or even less than that, as the case may be - with the most 'Couldn't care less' attitude, but for £48, who's got anything to complain about? Certainly not me. In fact the little riot that I speak of, was very amusing. It held the plane up for around 50 minutes, and it was still only 20 minutes late landing. Even Air Canada can't boast of Ryanair's excellent timekeeping. They have the best in Europe.
The same route (that would have involved at least one change and probably a total of 24 hours en-route, that I covered in under 4) with national carriers would have cost most of your holiday spending money.

I read the 17 fitness tips from celebrities…and none of them are fitness tips!
Gotta love celebremedia!
The Gnome project made my day!
As usual, great links, Mark! I LOVE Modern Forager. Didn't realize he started a new blog. It went right in the feeds. 4 Hour Workweek is another favorite. That labeling article was fascinating… and scary…
Lol Mark, neither cavemen, nor celeb. Haha those workouts right there are so full of you know what.
I call these "Nestle Fitness" workouts – i.e. all style and marketing and no substance.
As far as the caveman training – we got better resources such as this site here and SoG's Son of Grok to name a few.
Mark, thanks for the love! Can't wait till the Primal Blueprint book!
Thanks for plugging our Caveman workout!

Many people will look at your website before choosing to make contact. They want to see if the services or products match their requirements and if you look professional and capable. People's boredom threshold on the Internet is incredibly low so it's doubly important that they can instantly identify with your image, understand the information on your home page and navigate your site.
There are lots of different types of website you can have. Once you have determined the purpose and function of your website and assessed the best way to maximise your web presence, the design process can begin. Some people simply want an electronic brochure for potential new customers to see. Some clients want a website they can update and control themselves (CMS), some want to offer products, services or virtual product downloads for sale (e-commerce). Occasionally people want a bespoke application like a dating website, online surveys or an online booking system.
Everything is possible and any combination of the above can be accommodated.Website design follows a series of steps to determine how best your business can benefit from the Internet.
Design Process
The design phase starts with the initial meeting and follows six basic steps;
- Marketing Aims & Objectives – Defining your target audience and their needs and determining the information your visitors will be looking for.
- Information Architecture – Detailing the actual information required by the reader / defining the number of pages, pictures, downloads, links, and any purchasing stages (if applicable).
- Navigational Model – Designing the flow structure and site map to show how all the pages will integrate so the reader can find the exact product they want in the smallest number of steps.
- Creative Modelling – This is the graphic design stage, where the appearance, style and tone of the site are created. A home page is constructed for graphical approval and its style is reflected throughout the site.
- Implementation Phase – Putting all of the content together within the parameters that have been set.
- Testing – Once the site is ready, it has to be tested and 'debugged' before it goes live. After the in-house test phase, we ask you to 'click' on everything, try every link and download, print every form and do everything to ensure you are completely satisfied before signing the project off.

The odds were against me. I grew up in a small town literally run by the Southern Baptists and the Church of Christ. My family was a pillar in the First Baptist Church of our little shitkicker town, and we were there every time the doors were opened. I should have known I was gay. Looking back, there were plenty of signs. But religion is a great mask, and I wore it well. I managed to get into a decent college that was far enough away from home that I wasn't expected to come back too often. But my small town high school didn't really prepare me for college, and it took every ounce of my being to keep my head above water academically. After all, I didn't want to go crawling back to shitkickerville USA as a college dropout. Most people have time to sort out their sexuality during college, but my big head was stuck in a book, and the needs of my little head were put on hold.
After graduation, I managed to get a job in Minneapolis. My very southern parents teased me about freezing to death and joked about me running away. In reality, it wasn't a joke. It wasn't like I left the country, but I was ready to get away, far away. Minneapolis was about as removed as it gets from my upbringing. I moved in late May and started work on the first Monday of June. The bitter cold of Minneapolis is deceptively tucked away during this part of the year. I settled in. The job was going well, and I was actually making money. I joined a gym and started taking decent care of myself for a change. The job was challenging, but it was the type of work you could actually leave at the office. So I had time on my hands.
I was alone and far away from home and family. My stress level had plummeted. I was 22 years old, good looking, smart, well educated, employed, in decent shape, and a virgin. Without academic probation breathing down my throat, my mind had time to contemplate the absurdity of this situation. I saw men at the gym and admired them. Their discipline and comradery impressed me. In my mind, I thought, "I bet they're not virgins." This resulted in the twisted logic of "I want to be like them because being like them would solve my virginity issue." I used my struggles with college as an excuse for why I had never successfully dated women. My history of decades of Sunday School clouded the obvious fact that I was simply gay. I didn't want to "be like" those men at the gym, I wanted to "be with" them. But flipping that switch was not easy. Nobody knew me in Minneapolis. I had put forth no pretenses of being straight or gay. The option was there, but the overwhelming newness of being gay was a can of worms I was not yet ready to open.
I settled into a routine at the gym, and as is the case, you tend to run into the same crowd if you go at the same time on the same days. Faces became familiar, and some eventually had names attached. There was the occasional spot or tip exchanged between gym buds, but it wasn't like I was making friends there. Thanks to the earbud, most men just kept to themselves and communications consisted of a glance or nod of the head in respectful acknowledgment of the other's existence.
It was leg day, and I was doing squats. I was pushing hard, and asked Todd for a spot. Todd and I had spotted each other occasionally over the last several months. Despite our cordial reciprocal spotting, I didn't know the first thing about Todd except that he was stunningly handsome. He looked a few years older than me, maybe 25. I was 5'10", and he was a few inches taller than me. I was a smooth brunette, but he was a rather hairy blonde with blue eyes that were so bright, it wouldn't have been a bad bet that they were colored contacts. In my history of being spotted, I had never really needed the help. But this day would be the first time I could honestly say had I not used a spotter, I might have ended up in the hospital. At the end of a set, my balance faltered due to a pain that shot down my left leg. Todd relieved me of the bar, and I ended up on the floor. Rattled by the situation, Todd and I racked the weights, and I hobbled off to the locker room deciding I shouldn't push my luck any further.
As I returned to my locker from the shower, Todd was just coming in. He inquired as to my condition, and I told him the truth, it still hurt. He reached into his gym bag and pulled out a card. As he handed it to me, he said "Alternate heat and ice on it, and if it doesn't feel better by the morning give me a call." I looked down at the card, which said "Todd Marks, LMT" in rather clinical looking black text.
I went home and did as I was told. But despite taking a major dose of Alieve the night before, I woke up sore as all get out the next morning. As I drove to work, I dialed the number on the card. The call went to voicemail and after the beep I gave him the update and asked if he could see me after work. Right before lunch I got a text message "I am fairly booked tonight, but I can fit you in at 10:00 this evening at my studio if that's not too late. Rate is $150 for 90 minutes. I take cash and PayPal. Just let me know." It was a bit late for a "school night" but I didn't like the idea of limping around the office for the whole week. I texted him back indicating that that was fine. He texted me the address, and it was all set up.
As I ate lunch, it occurred to me that this amazingly sexy man was going to be touching my naked body for an hour and a half. I had never had a professional massage before. Suddenly, the medical issue at hand took a back seat to what this might mean to the present state of repression I had managed to maintain. At some level I had to be aware of the logistics of what I was setting up, but I was so focused on the pain that my brain declined to process that part of the equation. Then the fear set in. Is Todd gay? If so, will he figure me out? If not, what happens if my body reacts in a "non-therapeutic" manner? What will it be like to see Todd at the gym either way? I could have texted him back and cancelled. But I didn't. And at some level I had to admit, I didn't want to. That little acknowledgement caused me to break out into a slight smile; a reaction I wasn't anticipating.
I threw myself into work that afternoon just to get my mind off of the situation. I went home and continued to alternate between the ice bag and the heating pad. I took another handful of Alieve hoping that would help. My body was playing nursemaid, but my mind was concentrating on being alone in a room naked with Todd. Around 9:30 I set off to Todd's place having no idea what to expect.
As I rang the doorbell, a small dog went crazy barking. Todd opened the door and said, "Don't mind Killer. She's harmless. Come on in." He led me to a small bedroom that had been set up as a massage studio. The lights were dim and there were a few candles burning. The room smelled like oranges and vanilla. Soft lounge music played on a small stereo in the corner. Todd asked, "So is it any better?" I replied that it was, but indicated that the pain was still pretty bad. He said, "Well go ahead and take your clothes off. You can hang them on the pegs right there, and then lie face down on the table."
So far so good. But as I started to undress, I noticed Todd was undressing as well. I had changed clothes since the office, but even so, I had shoes, socks, belt, and all that other stuff. He was just wearing a tank top and going commando in a pair of basketball shorts. So with so little to get out of, he was naked before I was. He saw the look on my face and immediately thought he had crossed a line. He said, "I always massage naked. Sorry, I should have said something first. You seem a little shocked." I stammered, but managed to say, "Hey, it's nothing we don't see at the gym, right?" I gave a nervous smile and continued to undress.
I hopped up on the table hoping that in the darkness, he hadn't noticed my rapidly forming erection. With my face buried in the doughnut pillow, all I could see was the lower half of his blonde furry legs. His calves were huge. It's not like I hadn't seen them before, but with this limited view, it was amazing how focused one could be. Very lightly, he ran his hands all up and down my body. It was tingly more than therapeutic. I had been touched sensually before, but it was during the few and desperate attempts I had made at dating women. From the moment his fingers glazed my body, I knew this was different.
Todd said, "I'm going to start with some stretches and bends just to get a sense of the limitation to your range of motion. I want you to say something as soon as it is painful. This is about making you better, not worse. OK?" I grunted my understanding. He oiled up both of my legs. Starting with the right leg, which didn't hurt, he reached right under the pelvic bone with both hands and started pulling on my leg sliding down until he got to the foot. I could feel the stretch, and it felt good. He placed a hand under my knee and bent the foot back in a slow, deliberate motion. When it was fully folded, he lifted the knee up expanding the stretch. When he started on the other side, I nearly jumped off the table. The pain was excruciating. He immediately cut down on the pressure and slowed the stretch. The left leg barely bent compared to the right one, and he didn't even attempt to lift the knee up. He said, "Yep, it's pretty bad. If you are OK with it, I want to use an EMS machine on your leg. It just sends a mild electrical current through the muscle. For some people it relieves pain and reduces inflammation. Is that OK with you?" My only question was, "Does it cost more?" He laughed and said, "No." I grunted another approval and he started washing the oil off of my left leg. He said, "I'm going to need to get these pads to stick to you. So we need to get the oil off of you. It's also a good thing you are smooth. Otherwise, I might have to shave a spot to attach the pad." The pads just felt like big stickers. He placed them just above the knee and just below the butt. He turned around and said, "This is going to feel a little weird at first. Some people find it ticklish. Some people find it creepy, like bugs crawling on them. Others find it pleasurable. I'm going to start off at a very low setting until the newness of the sensation dies down, and then we can crank it up to a more therapeutic level." It was weird at first, but I got used to it nearly immediately. He cranked it up a notch and went to work on my back.
The back massage was like heaven. I wasn't in pain there, but it sure felt good. Todd had strong hands and his ability to melt away tension was nothing short of amazing. When he massaged my neck, I could feel the heat of his naked body through the top of my head. My view was such that I couldn't see his dick, but I knew it was right next to my head. This sent an electrical stimulation to another part of my body and no machine was required for that. When he was done with my neck, he went to the other end of the table and moved my legs closer together. I could feel the table shake a bit and realized he had crawled up on the table with me. I felt his hairy legs next to mine as I determined he was straddling me. He used the leverage of this new position to dig even deeper into my lower back. As he pushed up my spine, I could feel the head of his dick make contact with my ass. I let out a slight audible gasp, but he just kept on with the massage.
After he got off the table, he asked, "So how is the EMS machine feeling? Should we turn it up a bit?" I nodded in approval and shortly thereafter felt a slight contraction in my leg as a result of the adjustment. He went on to massage my right leg, and the inner thigh and butt work was nothing short of amazing. My left leg was jealous, but clearly not up to that sort of attention. I had to know this was coming, but somehow when the time arrived, I kinda freaked. Todd said, "OK, I'm going to remove the pads, and I'm going to need you to turn over." I was hard as a rock. And there was nothing to do but turn over. So gay or not, Todd was going to see my dick in all its glory. He removed the pads, and I carefully rolled over.
"Oh wow" Todd said. "The EMS machine can do that to people. The stimulation can easily affect nearby areas. But don't worry about it. It's totally natural. Well, as natural as running electrical currents through your body can be." We both chuckled a bit to ease the tension. I didn't bother to say that the machine had absolutely nothing to do with it. He asked me to slide down a bit and put a pillow under my head. I was relieved to be out of the doughnut pillow. Not to mention, my view of Todd was vastly improved in this position. He repositioned the pads onto the front of my leg and cranked up the machine again. It was actually helping, and it also gave me a good excuse for my erection. Todd proceeded to work on my right leg from the top. Unlike the first part of the massage, Todd got a little chatty.
"So how long have you been in Minneapolis?" he asked. "Since May." I responded. The small talk continued as he asked me about my job, where I went to school, where I grew up, and a host of other questions. The conversation wasn't that strange, but having it naked while my cock was dribbling pre-cum at a rate I had never experienced before in my life was odd. Todd asked if I was ready to turn up the machine again. I said, "Sure, but if it stimulates my cock any more, my dick might explode." He busted out laughing and said, "Yeah, that looks like it might be getting painful. You know, these things are made for medical purposes, but some people actually use them for sexual stimulation as well. You can use the clamps that hook onto the pads to hook onto other devices." As he went over to turn up the machine, my mind was going wild with the possibilities. He turned it up, but clearly more than the last time. It was like he wanted to see my dick explode. When he turned back from the machine, it was the first time I had a clear view of him. He was hard as a rock, and his dick was stunning. Thick, uncut, veiny, huge egg-sized balls, and wiry blonde hair everywhere. It was hard to tell from my vantage point on the table, but he was probably seven inches or so. But with that girth, it seemed gargantuan. My impulse was to reach out and grab it. But my fear caused me to remain catatonic. He saw the way my eyes widened and he responded, "Yeah, you may not be the only one suffering. Sorry, I just couldn't help it. I massage a lot of guys, many of whom are quite handsome and even well hung. But you seem to be more than just a pretty face, with, well shall we say, a big heart." As he euphemistically referred to my dick, he ran a finger lightly under the head of it, and I thought I might shoot the biggest load of my life right then and there. I had never had anyone so blatantly refer to me in a positive sexual manner. Clearly, I was being flirted with, and I liked it.
He went back to my right leg and my curiosity got the best of me. I said, "So you say those clamps can hook onto other devices." I held up my hands and made air quotes when saying the word devices. "So what do you mean by that?" Todd said, "Well you can hook them to metal butt plugs and stimulate someone anally that way. You can also use bands that wrap directly around the penis and stimulate them that way. You can also use a certain type of sound that has a flat metal part at the top which is meant for an electrical clamp to be placed on it. That can send the electrical stimulation to the interior of the shaft and even down to the prostate, and when used with the butt plug, it can send a current through your ass right up to the tip of your dick. Some people respond very well to them. Would you like to see?" I replied, "What is a sound. It's obviously not a noise." He replied, "Here. I'll show you." He walked over to a drawer and pulled out a long metal stick. I was like, "What do you do with that?" He said, "You lube it up, insert it into the urethra, and it's like jacking off, but from the inside." I winced at the idea, but was oddly turned on as well. He could see my discomfort but assured me, "It sounds worse than it is, and once you get used to it, it feels great. If you hook the electrical current up to it, it will send you to the moon and back. Would you like to try it?"
So I'm a virgin. I've never had sex. I'm in a dark room with a near stranger who I'm just figuring out is gay, or at least bi-sexual. And he's offering me, as my first sexual experience ever, the kinkiest shit I've ever heard of, much less experienced. I feel like I'm in one of those Tesla videos where they are demonstrating the difference between Insane Mode and Ludicrous Mode. But instead of saying no, the words, "Is it safe?" seem to come out of my mouth involuntarily. Clearly I have reached a certain level of insanity due to dehydration from the loss of fluids due to my hour of electrically stimulated pre-cum. Todd quickly nods and says, "Well I would start out with the smallest one. I wipe them down with a sterilizing swab. I use medical grade lube, and I go really slowly. If there is any pain, I stop." After a brief pause, I'm like, "Why not?"
Todd goes back to the drawer and pulls out a sound that is far less intimidating. He crawls up on the table and sits facing me. His feet are by my chest and he has positioned my legs on top of his spreading them apart to give him full access to my dick. He is still hard as a rock and I can feel the tip of his dick as it not so subtly glazes my asshole. I flinch at the contact. He says, "Do you like that?" I respond, "Well, it's never happened before." With great surprise, Todd inquires, "You mean you've never bottomed before? I mean with a dick like yours, I can see you being a total top. But never?" I don't know why, but all the barriers came crashing down, and I just opened up to Todd. He was a massage therapist, not a therapist. But for some reason, I felt safe, which is ironic considering he was on the verge of shoving a metal rod down my dick and lighting it up with electricity.
With my revelations, it was Todd's turn to be shocked. He had been out since high school. His parents were highly supportive, and he was sympathetic to my situation, but had no ability to be empathetic. He listened intensely, and the moment was emotional. But surprisingly, the sexual charge never faded. So he looked me in the eye one last time and said, "Are you sure you want to try this." I just grinned while biting my lower lip. That was all he needed. He grabbed my throbbing cock and starting slowly inserting the sound into my dick. It stung a little bit at first, not to mention, it was a cold. But it slowly slid down my urethra. Todd gently guided it up and down stroking my cock from the inside while using his hand to stroke me from the outside.
He said, "Well that's step one. Are you ready for step two?" He turned around, went to the drawer, and pulled out a small metal butt plug. Now keep in mind, I've never been fucked in my life. Nothing's ever gone up there, much less a metal electric sex toy. But there are times in life where you are just too deep, and you might as well finish what you started. I replied, "Sure." He squeezed the device in his hand as if to try to warm it up. He covered it in lube and started rubbing it up against my hole. I thought my eyes were going to roll back in my head. I had so much going on physically and mentally at the point that I thought I might pass out. The anal insertion took a while. Todd kept commenting on how tight I was. But at some point the mass broke through and seemed to lock into place. I could feel the stimulation on my leg stop as Todd unclamped the pads. He leaned over to turn down the juice and hooked the clamps to the butt plug and sound. I jumped, but quickly caught my breath. Todd just looked at me feeling joy in the obvious pleasure he was bringing to me and the momentous achievement of my sexual awakening. He got a big smile on his face and said, "Ready?" I whimpered a yes and he started turning up the current. I had never felt anything like it in my life. My ass was spasming, and it was like I was involuntarily milking the butt plug. Something was going on at the base of my dick I couldn't explain. Nothing was moving, but I was on a ride like no other. As soon as my breath evened out again, Todd turned up the current again. He could tell I was on the verge. He said, "Tell me before you think you are going to cum. Based on your pre cum, this could be explosive, and I don't want you to cum with the sound inside of you. It could literally fly out." I replied, "I'm OK for the moment. It has kinda leveled out. But I will let you know." Todd leaned down and did something I wasn't expecting. He kissed me. Gently at first, but after a few seconds, quite aggressively. This distracted me from what was going on with my groin area, but the overall sensation was electric both literally and metaphorically. I pushed him off my mouth and said, "I'm about to explode." He disconnected the clamps and slowly removed the sound and butt plug. He said, "Are you ready for the real thing?" He didn't wait for an answer. He crawled up on the table and worked his thick dick into my dilated hole. He grabbed my dick and started stroking it while his dick was pumping my ass. I paid close attention to this feeling because I knew it wasn't going to last for very long. I was screaming by this point and my first non-virginal ejaculation was on its way. The first spurt flew all the way over my head. The second went right across the bridge of my nose. The third hit my chin. The remaining ropes got progressively lower on my chest. When the fireworks were over, Todd let go of my dick, leaned back to brace himself, arched upwards a bit, and just slammed his cock into my ass at a mesmerizing pace. Within 20 seconds he stopped, and I could feel the warm jiz filling my ass.
When he was done, he didn't pull out. He pulled me up by my arms, held me tight, and kissed me. His tongue licked the cum off of my face and when he kissed me again, I could taste my own cum, which was a first in a long night of so many firsts. I was 22 and had just had sex for the first time in my life. I was like a kid at an amusement park who had ridden his first rollercoaster. When the ride was over, I just wanted to get back in line and do it again.
Todd gave up the pretense that this was still a massage and led me to his bedroom. He pulled out some lube from the nightstand, threw it at me, and said, "This night is hardly over. Get to it!" I lubed up my dick, pushed his legs back, and did exactly as I was told. Having just cum one of the largest ejaculations of my life, I was able to control the timing a little at this point. I got into a deep penetrating rhythm and fucked Todd with abandon. My dick wasn't as thick as his, but at 9", it was certainly longer. He looked a little uncomfortable at first, but he egged me on, and I gave it to him hard just like he begged me to. I got lost in the moment and was floating as if I were high. The electrical stimulation might have fried my brain a little, but this high was not the result of Alieve, that was for sure. Not being experienced in all of this, I was too busy fucking him to jack his cock as well. But he seemed to be handling that just fine. I could feel my second round bubbling up to the surface, and from the sound of it, Todd wasn't too far behind. I drove my cock in as deep, fast, and hard as I could, and although I didn't think it was possible, this round felt even better than the first because my dick was in the warmest, tightest, most pleasurable of places, a place I had never experienced. After I caught my breath, I regained my situational awareness and realized Todd was about to cum. I pulled out, leaned over, and put my mouth on the head of his dick just in time to swallow a thick creamy load. I was hesitate about doing it, but since we were ticking off a list of firsts, I figured why not experience this as well.
Todd leaned over and said, "With that pain in your leg, you need to call in sick to work tomorrow so I can take excellent care of it." I just smiled as he wrapped his whole body around me, turned off the light, and covered us with the blanket.

We'll Always Have Paris. Big Deal.
By TOM REDBURN
Published: March 27, 1994
"WE want it to remind people of Paris," the architect said wistfully, describing plans announced this month to transform the bleak, windswept plaza at the World Trade Center and its disorienting underground maze beneath Lower Manhattan's twin towers into a bustling, sunlit mecca of commerce and leisure.
It's hard to fault efforts to make the World Trade Center more hospitable; but what is it about Paris that causes so many Americans to reflexively hold it up as the highest expression of the modern metropolis?
Sure, much of Paris is charming and beautiful, particularly in the core that tourists frequent within 20 minutes' or so walking distance of the Cathedral of Notre Dame. Its Left Bank sidewalk cafes are among the greatest people-watching spots on earth. And Paris is safer and better run than most American big cities.
Yet Paris, too, has more than its share of modern architectural disasters. In fact, the story of its post-World War II development -- with a handful of conspicuous exceptions like I. M. Pei's glass pyramid in the courtyard of the Louvre and the new science museum on the site of the 19th-century stockyards at La Villette -- offers a litany of urban renewal failures.
The policy begun under Charles de Gaulle of situating new office towers outside the central city may have been wise, but one consequence is the jumbled, sterile La Defense complex just west of the Paris city limits. It is on a direct line of sight from the Louvre down the wide Champs-Elysees through the Arc de Triomphe.
New Yorkers may complain about the dark, terminal-like atmosphere of the World Trade Center's underground concourse, with its Duane Reade drug store and prototypical shoe stores. But La Defense has even tackier equivalents, like France's ubiquitous Carrefour discount store and Go Sport, a poor imitation of Herman's. And it is harder to find the entrances to the Metro and the RER suburban trains at La Defense than it is to locate the PATH escalators inside the Trade Center.
President Francois Mitterrand had the stark, monumental Grande Arche, with its tent-like canopy inside, built in a bid to give a striking focus to the place. When the building was opened in 1989 as part of the bicentennial celebration of the French revolution, Robert Hughes, the art critic for Time magazine, concluded: "It would take a nuke, not a cloud, to fix this pretentious monster. Luckily the rest of La Defense is so sub-Dallas that the arch has no context to wreck."
At least La Defense is outside the historic heart of Paris. French planners, though, have no such excuse for what they did to Les Halles, the old central food market.
In the early 1970's, France built the nearby Pompidou Center, the colorful, inside-out cultural multiplex that houses a museum of modern art, center of industrial design, library and music institute. The rusting hulk has aged poorly. And despite the Beaubourg district's immense popularity with visitors, the center is plagued by heavy deficits and requires costly government subsidies.
Meanwhile, the glass and cast-iron pavilions of Les Halles were torn down, leaving a hole filled in only years later with a multi-level underground shopping center gloomier and more confusing than the World Trade Center's. It is covered by a vast concrete and greenery plaza with paths and stairway chasms descending to the lower circles of Les Halles. The "park" is entered through curving steel piers meant to echo the food halls they replaced. Tourists and residents congregate around nearby restaurants and shops, but shun the plaza.
Most architects now believe these examples of late 20th-century Parisian urban design are not models to emulate, but lessons in what to avoid. So why should New York have such an inferiority complex? It's Up to You, Nouveau Gauche
It's not clear. Maybe it's because New York's eyesores, like Times Square and its vast stretches of bare public housing blocks, are so much more visible than those in Paris, where the immigrant poor and the downtrodden are generally consigned to the untouristed eastern districts and ring of inner suburbs. But New York urban designers at least seem to have learned something from recent history. The mixed residential-office complex at Battery Park City, for instance, may need more street-level shops, but it opens the waterfront to pedestrians and contains the inviting Winter Garden.
You can't say the same about France's builders, led by President Mitterrand. Paris' newest monument is the $1.3 billion National Library under construction in the working-class eastern side of the city on the Left Bank. It involves four 310-foot, L-shaped towers on each corner of a square. Critics say the French architects got it backwards in deciding to place books in the glass towers, risking their deterioration from heat and sun, while relegating the public to a subterranean reading room. "Normally," one expert noted, "books go underground and readers are given natural light." Not in Paris.

Bud Moore, a NASCAR owner who competed with Ford products for 50 years in NASCAR, will be one of five people inducted into the International Motorsports Hall of Fame Thursday night in Talladega, Ala. Moore, who won 63 NASCAR Sprint Cup Series races with a variety of legendary drivers, is now 83 years old and still resides in his hometown of Spartanburg, S.C. He spoke with Ford Racing on Monday about his life on and off the race track.
BUD MOORE, 2009 IMHoF Inductee and Former Ford Owner
WHEN DID YOU BECOME A FORD MAN? "I ran the modifieds with Ford back from 1946 all the way through 1951 and then we ran some Fords in '55 and '56, but got strong with Ford in 1963, and from that time up until I sold out in 1999, I ran Ford products. I've always like Ford. I had some T-Models back when I was a boy, and we used to strip them down and run them around on the farm in Spartanburg. But when I got hooked up with Lincoln-Mercury in 1963 with Joe Weatherly, we won the championship that year. Then I ran a Mercury Cougar in the Trans-Am Series in 1967, and took over the Mustang program in 1969 and won the championship in 1970. I'm the first man that pioneered the small-block engine, and I think the first model we put it in was a '71 or '72 Torino, but Ford always gave us a lot of help, so I always stayed with them."
DO YOU HAVE A FAVORITE FORD OF ALL-TIME? "When I got drafted into the Army back in 1943, I had a '36 Ford Roadster and parked that thing down at the farm under one of my daddy's sheds and covered it all up. It sat there until I came out of the Army in 1945 and when I got her out, I had to put some tires on it and a new battery, but I got her going and drove it around for a good while."
HOW DO YOU FEEL ABOUT THIS INDUCTION ON THURSDAY? "I'm really excited about it and I really appreciate them putting me in. It's just a thrill for me to know that they're recognizing me and feel I'm worthy of being in there. I'm looking forward to it and it's gonna be a great day for me and my family. I'm in a bunch of Halls of Fame, but this is the biggest one and knowing that I'm going into this one is a great feeling."
LIKE THE WOOD BROTHERS AND JUNIE DONLAVEY, WHO COMPETED IN NOTHING BUT FORD PRODUCTS, YOU HAD A DRIVER LINEUP THAT WAS SECOND TO NONE. "I had 43 different race drivers drive for me. Buddy Baker, Bobby Allison, Fireball Roberts, Joe Weatherly, David Pearson, it was just a great deal to have all of the famous and good race drivers that we had. I just feel like I had a great career as far as NASCAR is concerned and also had a great career running Ford products."
IT'S PROBABLY HARD TO PICK OUT A MOMENT OR TWO THAT STANDS OUT, BUT WINNING A CHAMPIONSHIP OR DAYTONA 500 MUST STAND OUT DOESN'T IT? "I think winning the Daytona 500 under the circumstances the way it happened was one of the great feelings for all of us. Buddy Baker got out of our car in 1977 and we hired Bobby Allison in 1978 for a three-year deal. We go to Daytona to run the Daytona 500 and Baker and Bobby got in it about the second or third lap in the qualifying race on Thursday and spun out coming off turn two. We hit the guardrail and bent the whole back of the car up pretty bad. It didn't hurt Baker too much. After they got him pushed out of the mud he got going pretty good, but we brought the car back to the garage and Bobby left the race track. We went to work on it and put just about a whole new rear end on the back. We changed everything and fixed the car so when we got through with it, you couldn't tell it had been hit or wrecked. Bobby came out there about noon on Saturday to tell me he was going back home to Alabama and when he walked up and saw that car he said, 'Which car is this?' And I said, 'This is the one you wrecked. We're ready to go.' He couldn't believe it. We started the race and ran awfully good all day long in the race. We outran Buddy and won the Daytona 500 and after the race Baker walked over and said, 'Damn, I just got out of that car and you win the Daytona 500. I can't believe it.' That was a big thrill for me."
YOU'RE RECOGNIZED AS AN AMERICAN HERO AND A GREAT RACER. HOW DOES THAT MAKE YOU FEEL WHEN PEOPLE REFER TO YOU IN THOSE TERMS? "I was in World War II and I hit the beach June 6th at five o'clock in the morning and I was on the front lines all that time. I was in the Third Armored Division with Patton and have the medals and all I got, and all the purple hearts and stuff I went through while I was in service. Winning the championships we did and all of the safety features we helped design and put in the cars is something I remember. We were the first ones who came up with the jockey strap that went underneath the seat to hold the seat belts in place. We were the ones that put the window net in the car. There are so many things we helped NASCAR come along with and fix, so I've done a lot of different things in my life."

Back in 2007, Google invested $4.4 million in 23andMe, a genetic screening start-up company began by Anne Wojcicki, the wife of Google co-founder Sergey Brin, and a business partner. But that was not enough of Google's interest in genetics and DNA, Google has also been investing in a second DNA start-up called "Navigenics" for $2,500 and a small bit of saliva will provide you with genetic test results delivered securely online containing information about the likelihood for 18 medical conditions.
Navigenics aims to help disease prevention by giving customers reports on their DNA screenings that can be shared with their doctors. Amongst those diseases screened for are Alzheimer's, rheumatoid arthritis, and several types of cancer. Only those conditions which Navigenics have deemed to have had scientifically sound genetic studies are included in the test. Privacy concerns are addressed by encrypting customer identities, and the company will also provide genetic counseling.
If you're worried about Google having access to both your online searching habits, as well as your genetic make-up, don't worry, at least not yet. "While Google is a financial investor in Navigenics, they don't have access to our data…" says Navigenics.

they live together with someone
they share things
they spend money
they have babies
they hang out
they go on dates
they sleep together
they get to know eachother's friends
they get to know eachother's families
but ooohhhh noooo they hate marriage soooo much they never wanna do it and dont even wanna hear about it !
are you kidding me?@
even if those things are not with the same person, you are still doing marriage stuff and then you babble about how much you just loath marriage and will never do it... really?
and girls who cry day and night because a guy won't marry them or they can't find someone to marry or most guys are not husband material... maybe if you stop giving him EVERYTHING 100% free outside of marriage without any real commitment at all !
maybe im missing something... help me solve this riddle?
im talking about people who are sooooo against marriage and say they want nothing to do with it and they dont need it
yet they do EVERYTHING related to it and they say they need thoe things and can't live without them
i feel like a lot of people are just plain afraid of commitment and want to feel like there is a way out... real love and real commitment are almost gone
Most Helpful Guy
They genuinely do not want to commit to be there for better or worse. Some are reserving the right to change their minds. Others are basically saying they will be there as long as the other person is actively being a good partner, but if the other person stopped treating them well, they'd be gone.11|00|0
nailed it
And, as someone married... maybe they're not wrong. There's very little social pressure (and certainly no legal pressure) to continue being a 'good' spouse once married. A frightening number of people seem to become increasingly selfish and have a spouse who is stuck with them.
Once you have kids you're bound to a point you might want to marry (and get prenups). Otherwise?
I was young and romantic and got married fast. I wouldn't suggest it to young men today.
Most Helpful Girl
Well the problem is, we live in a society where people dont give a shit about anything, and they like to sleep around no strings attached. Its really messed up I know. I currently have a boyfriend (my first and last) and we're going to get married after we finish our studies. I still believe in marriage. The problem with girls now is that they sleep around and live with their boyfriends without getting married thats why the guy doesn't want to marry her cause he thinks she's too damn easy! I get you man...11|00|0
thank you !

Any spiceheads that are fans of golf?
Mark Broadie, a Columbia Business School professor, discovered that the old adage of a short golf game is the key may not be true. He used the Tour's ShortLink System, which CDW is a proud sponsor of, to gather his data.

I don't know what the key is; I just know that chicks dig the long ball
Jun 20, 2012 at 7:01 UTC
I hit the long ball.
Jun 21, 2012 at 7:46 UTC
I can only drive about 75 yards, but with stupid accuracy. I blame the local range for keeping a broken down Chevy Nova out there.
I've only every played one real game of golf, i don't remember much other than there was a lot of drinking, a golf cart accident, and i'm not allowed on that course any more.

Brand Representative for CDW
I wonder if the ShortLink System tracks BAC and performance.
Jun 21, 2012 at 10:15 UTC
I think it takes a good mix. Hitting the long ball off the tee certainly helps, but if you can't keep it in the fairway, what good does it do? On the short game side, if you 3 or 4 putt every green, sail your chips passed the pin or even over the entire green, and can't get out of the bunker, well that doesn't help either.
For me, it's all about balance and finesse. My best drive ever was about 300 yards, and I've only done it twice, once with a lucky bounce and a roll down a small hill LOL I average around 250 off the tee (or did when I played a lot), but always battled a pretty bad slice. I could chip pretty well, but putting was hit or miss depending on the day. Overall I ended up being roughly a bogey golfer. I would gladly sacrifice 25 yards off of the tee for some more accuracy, though ;-)
Jun 21, 2012 at 11:36 UTC
I'm a Big fan of golf and in my mind without any doubt the short game is key in golf... Of course that's after the mental game. If you take the percentage of shots taken from 100 yards in compared to all other shots that should tell the tale. Heck I've seen old men (which I'm rapidly becoming) who can't hit farther than 150 yards post scores that anyone would be proud of.
Jun 21, 2012 at 11:55 UTC
Very definitely the short game. I am a terrible golfer, BUT, when my short game is on, (for me), even if I do not get off the Tee Box well, things go better.
If I do get off the Tee okay, but cannot hit a green, my score goes up.
Jun 21, 2012 at 12:36 UTC
I sure would like to know what the key is, because I haven't found it yet.
Jun 25, 2012 at 6:04 UTC
For pros that can hit within 20 feet of the pin from over 150 yards away, sure, the long game has the biggest impact.
For recreational players the short game is still key. If you're hitting +1 GIR every hole that is ok, but then if you 3 putt you're significantly adding to your score. And getting to the green +1 GIR would generally mean a decent short range approach shot on to the green.
Jun 25, 2012 at 7:51 UTC
I have been playing golf on a regular basis for 61 years.
I have found the best help for my game is to quit trying to tee off from the back tees. I play from the "Red" tees, not called the "Senior" tees. It is of great help to be able to approach the green with a short iron rather than a 3 wood. I think putting is the key to a better score.
Jun 25, 2012 at 8:07 UTC
My golf game shines when I'm playing a long course. I always seem to 2 put most of the time. If I could get that down my game would improve incredibly.
Jun 25, 2012 at 8:28 UTC
I must say I agree with the article. I my case was the practice on the driving range with my driver alone to keep it in the fairway and work the fade and draw on command. I went from shooting 120 6 years ago to the low 80's in a consistent basis.
Keeping it in the fairway and staying out of trouble through course management is the key.
Putting is the other, prevent the 3 puts and that will cut at least 6 strokes out of your game.
Jun 25, 2012 at 10:31 UTC
Skill on the first 18 is important, but most deals are sealed on the 19th hole.
Jun 25, 2012 at 3:13 UTC
Short game is more important than being LONG off the tee. But being accurate off the tee is more important than the short game. Big long booming drives off the tee box are meaningless without a decent short game. A great short game is greatly negated if you're in the trees or on another fairway after every drive. The tee shot sets the tone geographically and mentally. Drive in the fairways first (even at the cost of distance) and then you can develope a meaninful short game.
Jun 26, 2012 at 9:36 UTC
It's the same number of strokes for a 300 yard long-ball versus a four foot putt. One's short game has to be solid to have a birdie game rather than a bogey game. Accuracy is everything once you're off the tee.
Jun 26, 2012 at 12:08 UTC
Depends on the course, a real long course with a lot of par 5's a Long ball will definitely help. but for the most part a the short game is key. also accuracy off the tee box is paramount to a good game,
400 yard hole 3 shots to get on the green for a person that cannot hit the long ball that would be normal and then 1-2 putt par or bogey
Jun 26, 2012 at 12:59 UTC
Golf is for people who don't command Bradley AFVs.

When your now sixteen year-old son, Phil, was born you and your spouse were told it would be unlikely that you all would have any more children. You were very happy when, seven years later, Pete, who is now nine, was born. As an infant and toddler, Pete had some ongoing health issues but he is fine now. However, admittedly, you and your spouse do tend to coddle Pete more than you did Phil.
Phil just got his driver's license and you allow him to use the spare vehicle. Phil has agreed to be responsible to pick Pete up from school since it is on his way home from his school. This does save you some time in the afternoon.
[You must be registered and logged in to see this image.]
[You must be registered and logged in to see this image.]
Today Phil calls you and says he has been waiting outside of Pete's school for a while. Phil says most of the students have gone and he even went inside to Pete's classroom but Pete is nowhere to be found. Phil says he has tried calling Pete's cell (a basic flip phone but you have no land line) but he gets no answer. Phil is concerned for his brother but he also has an interview for a part time job and Phil says if he waits much longer he will be late for the interview. You tell Phil to go on to the interview and you will deal with Pete.
You try Pete's cell too and get no answer. You work from home and so you are able to leave to go look for your youngest son. You happen to find Pete and a friend walking along the sidewalk near to your house. You pull over and collect Pete and, once he is in the car, you ask why he didn't wait on Phil. You also ask why he did not answer his phone. Pete says his friend, who lives "sorta close" to your house, was walking home and asked Pete to walk with him. Pete says his phone got taken up at school because he had it out in class and "oh yeah, you got to go get it from Mrs. Watson tomorrow." You take Pete home.
Phil calls you as soon as he gets out of the interview (the job looks promising) and you tell him Pete is fine and is home and explain what happened. When Phil gets home he finds Pete in the kitchen working on homework and somewhat jokingly says to his brother, "You're sitting really easy for a kid who just got his butt spanked." That is when Pete tells Phil that you did not spank him but only talked to him about it. Phil gets upset because not only was he worried and almost late for the interview but when Phil was ten he did something very similar and you spanked him for it.
Phil finds you in your office and immediately starts telling you how unfair you are. An argument happens. Phil doesn't exactly start yelling at you but he is loud and raises his voice and he also uses a couple of choice words to describe how upset he is. This does not set well with you and so you tell Phil he is grounded for the week and ask for his keys. You tell Phil that you will take care of collecting Pete but he is not to drive for a week. Phil throws his keys at you and storms off.
Phil is quiet and sullen at dinner. After dinner, Phil gets a call and he got the job. Phil comes to you and he does apologize for his tone and language but does explain that you are being very unfair to him and to Pete. Phil tells you he got the job and "unless you want to drive me to and from work then we need to figure out this being grounded thing."
How do you respond to Phil?
Do you change your mind about Pete?
