As for what kind of colour scheme it is -- well, it's one concocted by those two demons in (approximately) human form (Forget Ra's; these guys are the real thing.... ]]> feeds@yuku.com (Unregistered(d)) http://cattales.yuku.com/sreply/2993 Mon, 13 Jun 2005 12:49:48 GMT <![CDATA[ Re: CT19: Dearly Beloved ]]> http://cattales.yuku.com/reply/2992/t/CT19-Dearly-Beloved.html#reply-2992
Anyway, I just left my review for you story today, but there just aren't enough words to tell you how much I truly enjoyed it. I *loved* Bruce/Batman's interior debate and Selina's finally taking charge of everything. Simply devine.

But at the moment - remember that Harley a) is not the most logical creature on god's earth and b) she's been out of the country most of this time. This really is her first chance to come back to the manor and retrieve her property.
I would say her thinking is simply that... ]]> feeds@yuku.com (Unregistered(d)) http://cattales.yuku.com/sreply/2991 Mon, 13 Jun 2005 12:49:48 GMT <![CDATA[ Re: CT19: Dearly Beloved ]]> http://cattales.yuku.com/reply/2990/t/CT19-Dearly-Beloved.html#reply-2990
Why did Harley need to get that bra back? I can accept, with her unique devotion to the idea of Lurve, that she'd decide that it was easier (and more appropriate) to get it during a wedding and reception, but what was it about that particular bra that made it so important to take the risk?

Was she afraid that someone... ]]> feeds@yuku.com (Unregistered(d)) http://cattales.yuku.com/sreply/2990 Mon, 13 Jun 2005 12:49:48 GMT <![CDATA[ Re: CT19: Dearly Beloved ]]> http://cattales.yuku.com/reply/2989/t/CT19-Dearly-Beloved.html#reply-2989 I adore Sorkin, but that's the most blatantly I've ever stolen from him.

If you know his previous series SportsNight, you'll find a subtler homage or two. ]]> feeds@yuku.com (Unregistered(d)) http://cattales.yuku.com/sreply/2989 Mon, 13 Jun 2005 12:49:48 GMT <![CDATA[ Re: CT19: Dearly Beloved ]]> http://cattales.yuku.com/reply/2988/t/CT19-Dearly-Beloved.html#reply-2988
Anyway, as we were going along in the story, we got to the section where the 4 ladies stole away to the library with the bottles of Champagne, I stopped reading and my GF and I looked at each other and said, in unison: "West Wing!"

We have similar stuff here, called "Deep Heat", and I can imagine the effects of using that on "sensitive tissue." My wife also knows, from unpleasant personal experience as a child (she told her mother what it said on the package, but would she listen? ) that you don't apply it to open wounds!

Bengay is a "muscle rub" for bach aches, arthritis, muscle strain etc. It's active ingredients include Menthol and Camphor, and it's most memorable advertising campaign touted "Deep Heating"

To put it into contact with, shall we say, sensitive tissue, is as Selina pointed out, an idea too diabolical to have occured to any mere comicbook villain, but has, I am told,... ]]> feeds@yuku.com (Unregistered(d)) http://cattales.yuku.com/sreply/2986 Mon, 13 Jun 2005 12:49:48 GMT <![CDATA[ Re: CT19: Dearly Beloved ]]> http://cattales.yuku.com/reply/2985/t/CT19-Dearly-Beloved.html#reply-2985 Good show ]]> feeds@yuku.com (Unregistered(d)) http://cattales.yuku.com/sreply/2985 Mon, 13 Jun 2005 12:49:48 GMT <![CDATA[ CT19: Dearly Beloved ]]> http://cattales.yuku.com/topic/453/t/CT19-Dearly-Beloved.html
Chris, you said you wanted to get all of Tale #19 done before posting it, and I can see why. That is a quite delightful story; touching, witty (but also laugh-out-loud funny in spots), charming...
