What's Next

So with Beneath the Current now complete, I have three stories now rattling around in my brain. So you might see a new story coming soon. It's a bit different than my usual, since the MCs are already in love when the story starts. I'm thinking of posting this one as I write it, probably a chapter a week, unless I get really going on it. The first chapter is written and I'm halfway through the second. Unfortunately, it is not a sequel to any of the story I've previously written. As much as

Yay Or Neigh For 'punk Bitch?'

I'm still feeling regret over my US Marines and Gay Marriage Mock-up. Not a good idea as I have learnt.   But what I'm still tossing my head around over is the term 'punk bitch'.   Firstly, what does it mean? Similar to my other phrases such as 'crazy goon' and 'silly sausage', it is intended to be a slightly more assertive way of saying how much of how liberal you are. It could also mean how awesome you are too. It could potentially be insulting, which is where the controversy starts.

Women's World Cup

The USA team gets to split $2 million for winning the World Cup. The German team who won the Men's cup split $35 million. A tad of a difference.   Everything I've read tells of FIFA treating the women as the unwanted step-children. From the prize money, to accommodations, to playing fields. The almighty dollar is the reasoning behind it they claim. The ladies don't bring in the amount of revenue the men do according to the ruling organization.   The number of women playing soccer in the US,

Shoot Me Now

So it looks like I'm going against the firing squad for, well, things that should not have been said.   It's like waving a red flag at twenty thousand bulls.   My last blog post (now deleted to prevent continued offense) about the wonderful service of the Marines was meant to be a mere, light-hearted joke that reflects my own humor. And before I apologise for that particular incident, which caused an unsurmountably large uproar of dissaproval, you must realise that it was your choice to com

Freedom Of Speech And Everything That Comes With It

God, I hate that I am going to talk about politics so soon. But today calls for it.   Today, I saw something that shocked, hurt, and pained me. So, I left a long comment on it. I have no idea if it will be posted... so I am posting a similar piece on here.   I am a young man that champions the "Freedom of Speech" and I live by Voltaire's "I may not agree with what you say, but I will defend to the death your right to say it." but what I saw really tested my resolve. I do not merely disagree

Three For Isis

I read about the three young British women that left the UK, married into ISIS in Syria today and was reminded of a quote from an old friend.   He had taken the old saw, "You can lead a horse to water, but you can't make it drink," and transformed it into "You can lead a whore to knowledge, but you can't make her think."   I bet they will be regretting their decision right about now. Wow, just to imagine renouncing the UK for ISIS boggles the mind. It does not compute. But for sure, the U.K.

Weekly Wrap Up!

I hope everyone had a safe and happy 4th of July. We went to the stock car races, watched 2 fires burning, and then watched the fireworks. How did you spend your 4th of July? For those who don't celebrate the 4th, how did you spend your Saturday? While you contemplate answering that question, here's what happened this past week on the GA News Blog:   Monday was the CSR Discussion Day for Where Life Takes Us By Kuragari129. Cia did an interview with Kuragari, and then the comments were opened

I Almost Killed My Daughter’S New Boyfriend!

Started my vacation yesterday by waking up to rain, rain, rain, but that was okay. I had a bunch of indoors projects planned. Off to the bank, run errands, and hit the gym before going home to get cracking on a project when my daughter informed me that she invited her new boyfriend over for dinner.   I figured that was fine, it was still a few hours before dinnertime, so I pried open my new crate of ammunition and got to work. Multiple rounds in assorted calibers needed organizing. That’s

General Lee's Opinion On The Confederate Flag

This is General Robert E. Lee. He was the South's top General and had a brilliant record on the battlefield.   Lee was a gentleman. He was quite civilized and not to leave a trail of horrible battlefield atrocities. He was well thought of on both sides of the lines. He actually went to West Point with many of the Northern generals and considered them friends.   Recently when the furor over the state flags that took some of the symbols of confederate flags, I decided to read up on Robert E.

A Tri-Forum

So you might've seen my latest forums called Eews-Day Tuesday, Whinge Binge Wednesday and ThugLife Thursday. 3 forums. 3 chances fof you to tell some stories. 3 more times for me to up my reputation points.   Anyway, I notice that Eews-day Tuesday seems to be getting more popularity than the other two. So I just wanted to get a poll here. 1. Which forum is your favourite out of the 3? 2. Which one would you want to see scrapped?   I would appreciate your thoughts on this guys

152 Years Ago, The United States Was Saved From Breakup

Today, July 1st, marks the beginning of the three day clash that is today known as the Battle of Gettysburg in 1863. For those of you not up on American history, Gettysburg is a small town in the northern state of Pennsylvania. The Confederate Army's move into Pennsylvania was it's first (and only) attempt at invading into Northern soil, as the war up to that point had taken place primarily in Virginia and Maryland. Long story short, over three days of incredibly bloody fighting, the Confederate

Tech Tuesday: Tagging Tutorial

This week I wanted to talk about the power of the Tag in the forum software. It has been a feature in the software for a long time now. Although we use them slightly differently in our Stories Archive, they function the same with our search system.   What is a tag? It is a descriptive word that you can attach to a topic, blog, gallery image, ebook, story, etc. This word is that searchable. The system is set up so you can group like-tagged items together. For example, anything tagged "Renee Ste

Just Another Day

I think I might have inherited my mom's acting skills. Whenever my dad would yell at her, yeah, she'll yell back and get all upset, but then managed to go on like nothing ever happened. Even smile at the townsfolk and making small talk.   I think I can do that too. I'll be laughing and joking around even after my sister goes crazy on me just because I was holding on something dear to me, and threatened to destroy it. It might not be much, sad even, but it's mine. And I'm happy with it. I was a

To Shave Or Not To Shave Pubes?

No, I won't post images of the pre and post effects of trying out a clean look, site rules et al, Still, I just thought of sharing some thoughts on this practice.   As some of you know, I am starting to get more into exercising and running in general, so one thing I noticed was that I was getting sweaty in my crotch area a lot more. Well after a few days of thinking, I thought, why not shave some of the pubes off to reduce the heat build up, then I took the big dive and went all the way. Trad

Reflections: My One Year Anniversary

On this day, June 29, 2015, I celebrate one year as a member of GA.   To mark this day, I want to take a look at how I became a member, reflect on my first year, and take a guess at my future here.    Becoming a Member: One day in early June, I was perusing through Nifty's SF-Fantasy section and I came across a story called Your Alpha, My Mate. It was just one chapter at the time, and I read it and I was hooked. Of course, the author added a note that she would add on soon. W
