  1. Here's a question that I don't have the answer to and curiousity is getting to me so maybe someone can help. In "Close Call for Daisy", Daisy stayed at Enos's boarding house on Spring Lake Drive. When he put up blankets to use as walls so Daisy could have her own "room", Waylon said, "I bet I know where Enos got that idea. I saw that movie too"

    What movie is he talking about? I'm 47 and I'm wondering if maybe the movie was before my time 'cause I sure can't think of what it is.

    I know it's been years since Roger asked this question, but I finally found the answer to it:

    The movie that Waylon is referring to is "A Night to Remember" from 1934, starring Clark Gable and Claudette Colbert. It's the famous "Walls of Jericho" scene where Gable's character, Peter, must stay the night in the same room as the woman, Ellen, who's traveling with him. He strings a clothesline across the room, hangs a blanket over it and tells her not to worry because, unlike Joshua, he doesn't have a trumpet. (Of course later he mentions he's working on bringing down the 'Walls of Jericho' after he falls in love with the girl, lol)

    There's another interesting connection between this movie and Enos' character. Enos loves Bugs Bunny and other Looney Tunes characters and this movie was the inspiration for the cartoon character of Bugs Bunny along with Yosemite Sam and Pepe LePew.

  2. Before the Dawn has been updated since I posted about it (for the Cliche' Challenge). There are 4 chapters, 1 more coming (I think).

    Before the Dawn

    Why do I even think I'll get away with a story that's less than 50,000 words? Before the Dawn is now up to Chapter 8. I know how it ends, but it seems to be getting longer, lol.
