BHA, I think I need to be next... perhaps you can look up my history on the confessions thread: it might be a good place to start, about last night.
Having reviewed your case file, GE, I conclude that you were undoubtedly not alone in, ahem, taking matters into your own hands.

Dr. BHA would have done the same if he were in your bed.

I should hope not, BHA... or I wouldn't be doing my job properly!

Ah, I see, Dr. BHA meant in your <i>shoes</i>. Damn typos.

Awe, GE, that face-to-face will have to wait, I am afraid. Jeez, I 'm lucky just to find time to do my own thing around here. How's about a Mount Gay and tonic for old time's sake?

*notices Joel at other end of bar banging his head on an ashtray*

Chin up buddy.

*slides BHA a full glass* Here's your mount gay and tonic...

hey, have you seen dj around lately? I saw him over on the crush thread, but he's been pretty quiet lately...

just gotta place myself in the non-tobacco smoking section.

i'll be fine, just trying to think of methods to re-start the younster's interest in school... hell, i would buy him hookers if i thought it would do any good.

and by the way, i won't be capitulating this little skirmish either.

the young man has got to get at least a high school diploma... no ands, ifs or buts about it. it is the only manner by which to escape a lifetime of poverty, and even then there are no guaranties.

set up another beer, this one seems to have leaked out of the whole in the top of the glass... (final gulp)

he's been working and moving.
he should be able to speak more freely here before long... if he can find the time with his new job.

but he'll be up here for SeaComp!

good to know, Rian. I've been a little worried about him.

*pours another guinness for Joel* Here, and I'll have another one setting, since they take so long... just let me know when you're ready for it. Oh, and did you notice my shamrock on the top? I learned how to do that in Eire, when I was there... I know you're distracted, but I'm pretty proud...

so, the boy just won't GO to school? Cuts class? or doesnt' care about doing his work? I'm sorry, you've probably already said what's going on.. just give me the abridged version...

Hi Lunchtime Gang~

Did I land in the nontobacco smoking section, and may I please have a dark beer for a dark day, as well?

Spanish coffee, ifins you would pretty lady.
In honor of my buddy Timmy, who's having a vasectomy on Thursday.
He wanted to have a party afterwards in honor.
I told him he should hold a Ball instead.

Have a good day, giggle!

Joel is his behavior, similar to that of his friends or is he a loner? Does he have interests, is he cutting school to do anything in particular?

nope, he is a loner, but wants the acceptance... (ie, he enjoys the extra-curricular activities football pep-rallies, but he won't keep his grades up to do it)

he hangs in his room and watched TV or X-box, but those are being confiscated this evening by his mother... he isn't particularly motivated to do anything... and why should he, he has everything he can imagine... just no money, no "freedom" because he relies on his mother and i for cash, food, clothing, whatever... and he intimidates his bothersome little brother, so he does exhibit some anti-social behavior, usually to authority figures like myself. and all i want to see is a little initiative on his part... and i think once he tastes "success" he'll want more... but he quits too early before he really encounters success.

as i said elsewhere, every teacher said he was bright, just not motivated.

sorry to burden all of you with this.

another beer please... where is my lighter and bowl?

woof

I have some strange bruises this morning. Sore muscles I did not even know I had.

Who's gonna help me work out my kinks?

GE, a G&T if you please. And, I hope it all worked out for you last night but I must say the tub just seemed a bit empty without you. Still, more champagne for me.

not that it helps Joel, but I barely graduated HS, went to 5 colleges over the course of 8 years and don't a sheepskin to show for it. I am think I am doing all right.
