Oh I see. I work with delinquents too, but no sermon reading here.

Heidi Still working on that Peeta Lovers event. More info to follow.


Brittany (finally graduated and can once again read for fun) | 1328 comments Bluemoon, I promise, it's okay for you to look. Really, it's nothing you shouldn't know already. = )


message 263: by Peep (Pop! Pop!) (new)

Peep (Pop! Pop!) Brittany that was hilarious!


message 264: by Heidi (new)

Heidi Hilarious to you maybe Peep. Petta lovers have a more refined sense of humor.


message 265: by Peep (Pop! Pop!) (new)

Peep (Pop! Pop!) Hahaha! You snob!


message 266: by Sheila (new)

Sheila (sheilaj) OK now that I am almost done with Hunger Games I have switched to Team Peeta. Gotta love him

Heidi Peep wrote: "Hahaha! You snob!"

You got it. We don't just like anything (or one)-- like I don't know ...Gale.


message 268: by Heidi (new)

Heidi Yeah Sheila! Another one bites the dust Gale lovers. Peeta is the epitome of chivalry.

*GASP* Sheila I officially rescind my welcome!

Heidi Don't listen to her Sheila. You are always welcome here. Geez...silly Gale followers.

YES! WELCOME TO TEAM PEETA! CARB LOVERS UNITE! Haha!


message 272: by Sheila (new)

Sheila (sheilaj) sniff! Don't be that way Peep. I belong here you know


message 273: by Susan (new)

Susan Yay Sheila, welcome to the team!!! Hehehehe Peep!!!


Brittany (finally graduated and can once again read for fun) | 1328 comments Bluemoon, see I told you, you could look. HUGE spoiler right?

Peep, I'm glad you enjoyed my humor. I wouldn't want to be refined like Heidi anyway. And since you enjoyed the spoiler setup I thought I would bring that one back.

Sheila, I'm very disappointed, but better to know your true alliances now. That's fine. We didn't want you anyway.

Peep and I will continue to stay strong for the cause.


message 275: by Peep (Pop! Pop!) (new)

Peep (Pop! Pop!) No worries folks. That means that there will be more of you crying come August when Peeta.... finally... gets.... baked! MwhahahMwhahahaha!

Peep (Pop! Pop!) Sheila wrote: "sniff! Don't be that way Peep. I belong here you know"

You belong on Team Gale! How could you turn your back on us like that? It's expected from the others as they don't have a sense of loyalty. I just expected more from you.


message 277: by Heidi (new)

Heidi Hear that?? It's the Waaaaaambulance coming to take Peep and Brittany away. Waaa Waaa Waaa.


message 278: by Peep (Pop! Pop!) (new)

Peep (Pop! Pop!) No it's not. It's the local grocery store delivering more cheese to go with your whine!


message 279: by Heidi (new)

Heidi Um...no whining here, I think you two were the ones doing the whining yesterday.

Waaa Waaa Waaa (it's getting closer)


message 280: by Chachic (new)

message 281: by Heidi (new)

Heidi No bribes here sister! We are all on the up and up.

Why thank you, I'd love some. Team Peeta can have my leftover shells.

Sheila (sheilaj) You are so mean. That is torture

Fine, youcanhavesomeofmine.... It's a good source of protein. You know, just like meat.


message 286: by Sheila (new)

Sheila (sheilaj) I actually just now finished Hunger Games and will be moving on to Catching Fire fairly soon as it is waiting for me at the library. I look forward to those delicious protein packed pistachios


message 287: by Peep (Pop! Pop!) (last edited Mar 31, 2010 08:29AM) (new)

Peep (Pop! Pop!) :D As always, we'll leave the light on for you.


message 288: by [deleted user] (new)

Don't hold out hope, Peep. Catching Fire didn't change my mind. We just don't see enough of Gale to fall in love with him. Besides, I think Gale would sacrifice Katniss for the cause. Peeta has loved her from afar, has sacrificed himself to keep her alive, held her in his arms at night, kissed her over and over, etc., etc.


message 289: by Heidi (new)

Heidi Sheila - I hope you not caving into these crazy people on here talking about Pistachios - besides I live in the town of Beer Nuts Sheila -- I can get you any kind of nut you want - cashews, peanuts, almonds). Anyway, Team Gale always promise things and never delivers. And, I know, just as Shannen found out, you will be even MORE in love with Peeta after Catching Fire because Gale is really just an afterthought in that book. Happy Reading.


Brittany (finally graduated and can once again read for fun) | 1328 comments Just because Gale isn't a tribute. Obviously he wasn't in the book as much as Peeta, He wasn't in The Hunger Games! I think it says more about his character that he is still ever present in Katniss's mind even though he's not actually physically there.

The Hunger Games are over and it's time for the Rebellion, AKA, it's Gale's time to shine!


message 291: by [deleted user] (new)

Oh, we shall see, Brittany! I think Gale and Madge would make a nice couple. :)

Ha!


Brittany (finally graduated and can once again read for fun) | 1328 comments Shannen... don't say things like that!!!

In my opinion the WORST thing that could possibly happen with this series is having everything end wrapped up nice and tight with a pretty bow. I've posted this somewhere else, but I hope with all my heart that Suzanne Collins has the courage to finish the series correctly.

The whole point of The Hunger Games (the books, not the games themselves) is that sometimes there are thing worth fighting for, sacrifaces worth making. If everyone ends up happily ever after that will be a sure way to disappoint.

I'm looking more for a HP book 7 than an "the series that shall not be named" book 4.


message 294: by Heidi (new)

Heidi Totally agree with you there Brittany!


message 295: by [deleted user] (new)

OK, OK...I was trying to be nice to Gale. Nevermind, Gale dies but Peeta and Katniss live happily ever after. The End. ;)

Brittany (finally graduated and can once again read for fun) | 1328 comments Just think of all the possible couples...
Katniss/Peeta (not)
Gale/Madge
Finnick/his girl (i forget her name)
Haymitch/Katniss's mom
Cinna/an incredibly sexy mine worker he meets during the rebellion
Also Prim meets her true love (a boy from district 13)in the hospital wing and nurses him back to health.

And they all lived happily ever after!!

I would be so disappointed!! Please don't do it!

oh, don't you worry about Gale, he can take care of himself...


Brittany (finally graduated and can once again read for fun) | 1328 comments Bluemoon, I was referring to him being with a guy. A super buff Mine worker...


Brittany (finally graduated and can once again read for fun) | 1328 comments Mine too... I can't help but love him!
