Has anyone written that particular story? And if so, does anyone have a link to it? Thanks, muchly, Walt Walt Doherty wdoherty5@c.......

But it's been a while I can't remember any titles. BUT, my friend PJ wrote a story that is Pre-Dark Knight. It's called "From stranger to Confidante" an I have it on my own website. Read it here: http://www.come-undone.org/pj_stories/confidante.txt ------- "Wise men talk because they have something to say; fools talk because they have to say something."

As of this moment, I am *THREE* -- yes, just THREE dollars short of my goal. Today is pre-registration day, which means I get to hand in my cash donations, combine that with my online donations, and get my ride number. When I turn up at 6:30 this evening to hand in my materials, I hope to be able to say that I'll have made my goal. Please support me by going to http://main.diabetes.org/goto/bfbell and sponsoring my ride! Brenda F.
