I think someone called this the barstool phenomenon once: Affection is directed at the person next to another person all the way down the line, aka. Person A is interested in Person B, who is interested in Person C, who is interested in Person D, and so on and so forth.

Let's just get it together, people! (Probably this didn't make much sense to anyone. I guess I just wanted to get it all out of my head for my own benefit.)
*All examples given are based on actual individuals and their situations, but names have been changed to protect identities (and the secrets that go along with them).

So I got who everyone is, besides that last paragraph where I only got the female character and the first male character. Oh yeah, and the Lorenzo character. Why's it gotta be like that? Why you no tell me who they be? Although, you do speak the truth about Andrea. She's in a weird place. Why'z (like my use of the letter 'z'?) Jeremy gotta be like that? It's supposed to be simple. GAH! (PS: I know the only person besides Christie who'll read this is Gabe- so hi Gabe!)
I'm being told that my "code" names aren't sufficiently masking identities. Perhaps this entry needs to be deleted . . .
Byron, what ARE the mysteries of cloning, anyway?
I understood the whole blog and knew perfectly well who each "code name" referred to . . . next time you do a post like this maybe we can come up with a different system of masking the identities of the mentioned parties (he he he)--especially since Ellen's feelings are much more complex than the blog, or anyone else for that matter, could explain. For instance, why did Ellen let Dennis, Duane, Darin, Mike, and Reed get away? Then there's Jacob who just got married so he's out of the picture . . . I guess there's still always Bartholomew...(Can you figure these ones out, Christie?)
Yeah, my vote is to delete the blog now. Everything is too complex for it to be read simply. And now people are talking... I don't want things to get weird. Although I guess they already are. The point is- things have changed even since this blog was posted, so parts are completely false now. So uhh, yeah. Delete it.
I leave town for a couple of days...
Well your secrets are safe with me. Mostly because I don't recognize any of the relationship triangles(polygons?) you described. And therefore am unable to deduce the identity of any one of the people described. I thought about trying to make it a logical puzzle and solving it that way, but there are probably to few consistent logical facts that intersect that way.
I wonder if I am in there anywhere. Probably not.
Lets see Byron's blog links to provoplatinum. Now there is a clue. hmmm...
