Hmm - there may be a couple of contenders, but I think I would put Driver in the number 1 position as well. Perhaps not as confrontationally as WBMS though. :-) I would rank his PLAN/Horse stories as his best though, IMHO. The characters of Evan! and Aaron are amazing. Yes, there is an exclamation point in the spelling of Evan, at least according to Aaron. :-)

I agree with both of our esteemed members' posts. Foxwood is the best of FT's stories that I have read, and his others are quite good.

ouch. but he is absorbent. FMA - Mon-Wed at 1am [part of adult swim]. It just restarted this past Tuesday, so you wouldn't be too far behind.

Cartoon Network....which also broadcasts FMA (see sig) Clearly, cartoons/animation/anime are indicative of vast, intuitive cognative powers. However, they do not preclude a loose marble or two. Hmm, considering the original topic in this thread, I'm surprised a certain sponge hasn't been mentioned. lol

Why not on a first date? What if ice cream cones were purchased? Nothing scary about ice cream cones normally.

Yikes, I thought that was going to be an Ed, Edd & Eddie reference at first ! The link thou didst hintest at, oh Blue one, - from Deweywriter. http://www.venganza.org/

or there is the phrase - open up a can of whoop-ass on you. Mostly a Southernism, I do believe. WBMS - if that is the LAST thing, then what is the first? Graeme - I actually like the Australian phrases - it adds a layer of linguistic deciphering which I enjoy. Granted, I could be considered odd for that reason (and others no doubt).

Did you hear about that new pirate movie? Its rated "arrgh"

I confess I noticed it, too, though I was not bothered by it a great deal. On a slight tangent - ever hear of a "Tom Swifty" - so called from the Tom Swift Jr. books by Victor Appleton II. This was a series of boys adventure books (no, not that kind of adventure) from Grosset & Dunlap who published Hardy Boys, Rick Brant, Nancy Drew etc. Most often, an adverb used to describe the manner in which a character spoke was related to the content of the speech. For example - I can't believe the engine is still smoking like that, said Tom exhaustedly.

one way or another, Blue. :-) Does this count as a thread hijacking?

WBMS - You should be ashamed of that pun ! lol Are you often not naked under your clothes? Or is it merely a matter of needing some repairs? (Your post would indicate a lack of hems.....) Blue - I don't know.

WBMS - I agree with dude about the story, though I'm not faulting you for your hiatus from writing. (Note the hopeful element contained in hiatus.) However, I shall fault you for your grammar in your above post. "Who's to say who ends up with who." GASP ! Unless you mean that only "who" gets to determine with what person "who" will associate, then I think you meant "with whom," did you not? And is "What" still on second? :grin:

Real Life? Sorry but could you explain, Graeme? I thought this was real ....... I confess I just read all 8 chapters one evening last week in one sitting, which should tell you how much I enjoyed it. New Brother is still my favorite of your stories, but its a close call. (Glad to see you're continuing NB !) {Just kidding about real life, Blue, Graeme is right - family first ! I'm getting ready to move back East for family reasons so my thoughts are with you}

Agreed ! Another fine story Graeme! I'll admit I didn't think it was a bashing story - just cause you're a bit too sneaky :D - but I didn't expect the brother to be gay.

I wasn't one of the beta readers :) But I agree with Graeme and AJ !! Definitely a great read and fine addition to AD. I hope we see more of your work, dcorvus!!
