  1. Since this article was expounded on in 2009, it would be nice to have an update from those "in-the-know". As for those young people under the age the well-meaning people have determined is mature enough, who are having sexual relations with each other, beware! There lurks in all societies those that wish to impose their wills on others without accounting for their own actions. It really surprises me this comes from Australia, where I had always thought of as the last vestige of personal freedoms. Now, a message for those well-meaning people...
  2. Sorry for being late to the class... I liked the piece, except for the falling cake... the cake never did anything to him! But, seriously, I once got so frustrated and depressed I told one of the most important people in my life to F***off. I knew I had hurt him, and it hurt me even more, knowing I had. He passed it off easily, but I still think about it quite often. I do not like hurting people, even bad people. There are no really bad stories, only poorly told ones. This one was neither!
  3. WELL! I do not know about you guys, but that second one... Is that really a book? Down here in the boondocks we have but one thing to say to that... or maybe just a show of distain.
  4. Ah, la vache! It literally translates to Oh, The Cow! It is used to express wonder and disbelief... sort of like an universal OH MY GOD!!! Without the girlish gushing inflection. Hi to you, too. I will leave the voices to Paco, his dropped. So... voice is out, as well. I really was just wishing. Thanks though.
  5. Somewhere I read Blue could speak French... I was just saying that I loved Equinox and I would like to play for the series, but knew I was not good enough. Besides, they need a composer... a professional.
  6. Ah, la vache! Je voudrais pouvoir jouer pour eux, j'aime Equinox! Hélas, je ne suis pas bonne ...
  7. I regret it, but I must retract my suggestion... Some funny guy once said, "It takes an Irishman to play the pipes!" The young drummerboy was not half bad, though... (I am allowed to look)
  8. As an avid Sci-fi fan and OSC fan, I find this news to be appalling! However, let us not forget another sci-fi writer, that influenced many a young person's mind with hidden religious beliefs... C.S. Lewis. If you can believe it, he was a self-proclaimed atheist in his teens. Luckily, I never bought a book by either man.
  9. Here is another author, and story... neither of Nifty or AD, but very worthwhile... http://sionliscannor.wordpress.com/another-way-of-being/ . And now back to school...
  10. Did you notice the crowd's faces? Frowns and indifference turned into smiles! I think it had a lot to do with the flutes. However, maybe a mob of bagpipers in say, Miami? It might work.
  11. I apologize. But, on this site I have only found authors to be treated with respect, especially budding ones. A few months ago I hyped a Nifty story to a friend, I knew he would see what I did. I just got lucky as he did promote it here. I think it has a lot to do with Nifty's reputation, almost anything can and is posted there. Maybe AwesomeDude.com is just a bit more hightone? Personally, I expect it has more to do with the ease of posting... lots of people suck at computers.
  12. I think I will change mine to Willy. I never met a worm I did not like... French or otherwise.
  13. This kind of discussion never came up in our household, over who was partnering with who. Sometimes there was a private discussion about what was going on behind closed doors. However, much was said about making sure everyone was protected, both physically, and the adults who were together, by legal contracts and Powers of Attorney, as my parents live in a state that will never... I mean never vote for gay marriage.
  14. I think a lot of the opposition has to do, not with race or gender or even god forbid religion, but with just being different. People are always scared of differences. "Why does she have neon-green hair?" "Does he not know all those rings makes him look trashy?" "Have you ever seen how those people say they worship God?" Not all gays look or act effeminate... right? So, in essence, these people are just scared of a concept. They are generationally taught to fear differences, even perceived differences.
  15. The only problem is there are more of them than of us. I once heard a dumbass in a local coffee shop say "I can tell a fag a mile away, they show up like a turd in a punchbowl!" He was joined by almost everyone in the place, nodding their silly heads as they looked around to make sure everyone else saw them agreeing. Sheep! My cretin-dar works just fine.
  16. The most thoughtful line in the entire article: "A child being brought up in a loving home is far more important - and that quality of parenting is far more important - than any of the criticisms that have been waged by this group of individuals," I know my parents love me, they show it every day. They show me what love is really all about... respect and devotion to family, gay str8 or somewhere in between. All of us are adopted in one way or another. With two gay couples as parents, I think we will turn out just fine!
  17. 38 chapters... a breeze! I think I will wait for the end before starting. Ah, Bangalore? Will you be my agent when I post a story? Such constant glowing reviews.
  18. D&G also sells fine cologne and perfumes. The right-wing's wives would have a fit if they disappeared!
  19. Perfect!! He could look on the bottom of the sea. I understand that is where they keep the extra lawyers.

    I much prefer to have a real book in my hands. I spend enough time getting eyestrain looking at screens. But, if I have to, then it is the laptop for me. I have several ereaders on it, and it is a nice new lightweight one. But books are still best!
