    RIP - Comicality - May 1975 -- April 2024

    By Myr

    I have been following Comicality since New Kid in School first showed up on Nifty in 1998.  I started exchanging emails with him that long ago.  We've been online friends since.  When the opportunity arose for me to start Gay Authors in Sep 2002, Comicality was the first author with us.  When we opened the forums at the very end of July in 2003, it only took me a few days to get Comicality on the forums.  Back then he was on a WebTV... He continued to grow and grow as an author branching ou

Sometimes torture is good

Last night I got an IM from someone I know who is pretty much against all republicans no matter what the issue is. Usually, I am too, but I think they're right when it comes to defending the US from terrorism. Well anyway, she IM's me about some lunatic named Kieth Olberman, who has some show no one watches on MSNBC. He goes off on the president whenever he has a chance, but intellegent people pay him no mind because he's a loser. Anyway, I hate Bush for his politics. I hate that he wants to gi

My GA Literary Debut

So I finally did it. I finally managed to sit still and focus on an idea long enough to produce a first chapter.   It's a story idea I had about 2 or 3 months ago. I frequently come up with story ideas. I even often conceptualize them to a high degree and plan out the plots and characters. Getting them down on paper is the hard part though, but I finally did it! I'm really excited about the story too.   I hope to post it in the "Sneak Peaks" section within the week. I might still add a

Last Day of Summer

Well I survived another one! As summer's go it really wasn't too bad. I think we only had one week of 90 plus temperatures and the nights all stayed pretty cool. I can only remember one night that the AC didn't change over to fan once. I just realized that not only is it the last day of summmer it's also Friday! YAY I guess I'm in for a good day. Least I better be!   Sam and I didn't find much on our yard saling trip. I got a book and a keyboard for my computer. (I stock up spares, caus

I quit!

So hey there...   I have a funny story! At work on tuesday I had to write this proposal and after I spent two hours researching and answering all the questions and writing it, I took it to my boss for approval. He started reading it and said, "This is a little over the top. Have you ever thought about quitting and becoming a writer?" So I giggled and said, "Yeah, actually I have!" But I'll probably never be that brave ,plus I seem to be a glutton for punishment.   Still dealing with some fa

Dog Tired Commuter

I spent the last couple of weeks commuting back and forth to Gulfport. I was doing a job overseeing the installation of a business network. Actually- the business was rebuilt after a certain be-yach of a hurricane blew most of it to Wiggins. It took almost a year to get a construction company that wasn't booked up.   They must be well practiced as they went from concrete slab to interior finishing in Three weeks. It's like watching mushrooms pop up after the rain.   I see some definite adva

"Beautiful" - pardon the narcissism

Everyday is so Wonderful   I like a lot of songs. In fact I like almost all songs, but if I had to pick a favourite song a permanent favourite, not just a "flavour of the week", it would be Beautiful by Christina Aguilera. I really do feel like everyday is so wonderful.   So I just finished that book that I mentioned in an earlier blog, Outing Yourself. Basically...I thought it was a load of crap. I guess some parts were useful, and interesting, but mostly I just finished it because I'm

out along the edges, always where I burn to be...

Another Friday gone but no hangover. Yippee. Not that there wasn't drinking. We actually got started around 5 pm, but mostly stayed away from anything other than beer, so no one really ended up in ridiculously bad shape. Like 9 of us had decided to have a little cookout, and of course it rained all day, but that didn't stop us. There was a balcony overhead blocking most of the rain, so it worked okay. If anyone's wondering, I had a veggie burger and they're really good done over charcoal. We als

Okay so I'll go ahead and give you all fair warning now...

I won't be held responsible   So let's see...   We'll start with Thursday... My daughter turned 11 Happy Birthday Punkin!

this and that

I think summer is back for one more weekend I knew I shouldn't have taken those air conditioners out last weekend. It was just so nice and cool out. I wanted fresh air in the house. And the nights have been down in the low 40's and I wanted that air inside too! I'm not going to bother to just put them back in for one weekend. I'll be strong! lol and the thought it's gonna get really cool here after the weekend will keep me going.   I tried hummus yesterday for the first time! I never

What makes me proud

Well, 9/11 came and went and there were all kinds of shows on TV about that day, and even one about the events leading up to it. I guess to me 9/11 represents something to be proud of. On that day when almost 3000 people lost their lives in the worst attack on our soil, we came together as a nation and for a little while, we weren't democrats and republicans. We were Americans. All of that seems to be gone now. In it's place, we have a country so divided that you can't talk about what happened

thoughts on life

I found a dimpled spider, fat and white, On a white heal-all, holding up a moth Like a white piece of rigid satin cloth- Assorted characters of death and blight Mixed ready to begin the morning right, Like ingredients of a witches' broth- A snow-drop spider, a flower like froth, And dead wings carried like a paper kite.   What had that flower to do with being white, The wayside blue and innocent heal-all? What brought that kindred spider to that height, Then steered the white moth th

First day at work

Well, today was my first day at my new job. The commute is about an hour each way, which really sucks, but I only have to tough it out for a month or two until I can get my own place. That should cut the commute down to 20-30 minutes. The work is actually quite complicated and there's tons of stuff to remember, a complex computer system and series of databases to learn, etc. I'm very familiar with the translation industry and linguistics (which is important for quality control and just knowing h

Writing

Well, I have actually finished my entry for the Fall Anthology! Of course, according to Word the word count is 10,099... I'm hoping no one will notice those teeny tiny extra 99 words   Am going to submit it as soon as I decide on a title. I hate coming up with titles. With me, either the title is the FIRST thing I think of and then write the story around it, or I can't think of a thing. I am torn between two titles at the moment. One is the one I really want--but I think it may not mak
