Hi jj...

This story is one of my favorites (It's hard to pick one of any of the others that you have written, since they are ALL excellant) and the story would not be the same with any of the characters missing.

However, that said, the foreman really hasn't been an integral part of the story anyway...and since I don't find him all that exciting, I think you could let him fade into the background. I love bears, but I wouldn't really call him one of those that I find attractive.

I find the action between David and Manny to be the hottest of the three main characters. Todd pulls it all together, but he is a bit over the top. He is beautiful, and his size is a thing to gawk and drool over, but I find the more "human" characteristics of David and Manny more normal (if I can use that word) and believable, and more like what would take place in real life.

I want to be David, and I want to get it on with Manny. Todd can watch if he wishes!

Keep up the good work, jj. Your following is waiting with baited hooks to learn of what will take place next.

HAPPY CANADIAN THANKSGIVING to you and yours.
