I don't wander into the Challenge Folder very often. Big mistake. Huge. I'm glad I happened by today...
To get CC to post a new story...Paul, I'm down on bended knee thanking you for this truly excellent challenge.
Now to dust off my newly-polished CC button...

This is, not surprisingly, terrific stuff. I've been trying to figure out what part(s) to quote, and I just want to cite everything as favorite moments! So since I have to quote something - because I almost
always quote something - let me choose...hmm...this wonderful moment:
“I do know, you overgrown Boy Scout. You leave us no choice. We’re buying them. Even if we have to take out a second mortgage!”
“A second…?” He dropped the pile he was holding. “Have you lost your mind? We can’t afford that. Let’s just…take a deep breath. Get some perspective. We are talking about underwear here. Underwear! It’s nothing…”
“Easy for you to say! You’re not the one whose name is splashed across it. In sparkly, shimmering, glittering for the entire world to see, letters!”
“Easy for me to say! Easy for me? Whose backside are these things meant to be on? I thought I was Superman, but it turns out I’m just a pair of cheeks. A kinky, flashing, flying billboard!”
“So we’re agreed. A second mortgage. And the names and numbers of every last person who has ever purchased a pair.”
This was just fabulous. Filled with the kind of humor that we love in a CC story, terrific L&C banter, and a number of ellipses for those of us who love them.
I adored it all...
Kathy (who unfortunately can picture Clark as a blonde, since Dean bleached his hair for a movie a few months ago, and I DON'T agree with Lois that he would look good as a blonde. Good thing that there were no desperate cries for help while they were at the store...)
