Hi, WillJohn.

Yes. Meeting Bullmoose too early and getting spanked by him on her eighteenth birthday could change a lot of things. At this moment, I'm still trying to decide whether Elaine's interference can be corrected (and whether it
should be corrected).
If I go with the altered timeline, some things are likely to stay the same. Katie may still go to the same college and meet up with Karen and Yank. I think Yank is too important to delete from Katie's life. Karen, on the other hand, is a recent addition that isn't really all that integral. What do you think about Karen? If you were deciding, would you keep her or ditch her?
If Katie still gets that spanking from Tommy, it would no longer be the first. That may or may not be a significant change for her. Tommy never became a big part of her life... (except that Dave, the surveillance guy, looks a lot like Tommy... related maybe?)
My current idea is that I'm going to go with an altered timeline for Katie... and if it doesn't work out... Well, maybe
then, the Clean-up Man can finally restore things to the way they were.
