....and here's a pic of Robert Pattinson, who's playing Cedric Diggory. http://www.hpana-media.com/images/news/18579/cedric.jpg Nice 6'1", A+F type, hehehe.

Sooooo, are you looking forward to the Goblet of Fire on November 30? Here's the US trailer: http://www.apple.com/trailers/wb/harry_pot...hegobletoffire/ and here's the international trailer: http://www.allocine.fr/video/ They look like fun.

I got here through Underthehoodster, from mentions that he put into the Perry & Jesse chapters posted on Nifty. (So, the real answer is: combination of following an author + advertisement, but I only marked "following an author".)

Condolences to you & your family, Bardeara. James is right about being very careful with meds & alcohol. Another thought about that episode: it sounds a little bit like sleep paralysis, which is when you can't move just before falling asleep or right after waking up. Your episode was a tad on the long side, though. There doesn't have to be any underlying disorder, but if you've ever had periods of weakness without a preceding period of unconsciousness, particularly in the setting of intense emotion (e.g., inability to squeeze tightly, or getting weak at the knees, right after hearing a funny joke), that could be something called cataplexy (click here for brief explanation). It wouldn't hurt to see a neurologist. (Much better than random opinions off an internet board!) Again, my sympathies about your uncle.

Wow! I'm sitting here with my legs very tightly crossed, but I do think there's a cool factor in this: you got interested in something you initially didn't know much about, educated & empowered yourself, formed a plan, gathered or improvised the necessary materials on your high school budget, and then saw your plan through to completion, including all the aftercare and maintenance. All of which demonstrates initiative, independence, good research skills, can-do/self-empowering attitude, and excellent follow-through. Superb! Mind you, I do not mean to encourage any more genital-alteration projects! *squeezes legs even tighter together* But how about turning some of those skills toward planning and actualizing some get-togethers with a certain clarinetist?

NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO! Say it isn't so!

7 years! Way to go!

Mr. Arbour, With regard to the two key factors you mentioned: Whether one finds anal sex or endorsement of George Bush or racial purity or any other thing decent is a completely different issue from whether one treats other people decently. There's no imposition of views nor any mind control. One can hold and express whatever opinions one wants. It's how those opinions are expressed that is restricted. With regard to the larger picture, two other things are worth remembering: This site is not a democracy. No site is. Indignation over civil rights and individual freedoms is just wasted energy, since, to be blunt, the expectation of any freedoms or rights is delusional. The reality is that this is Myr's site, with his vision of what it's to be and his rules for how it's to run. Any freedoms or rights we have are privileges, granted by Myr, not inherent to us. This is generally true of any site: the creator(s)'s way or the highway. Like it or leave it. By and large, I myself like this site and find the rules quite reasonable. For me, the benefits of fun reading and good company clearly outweigh the costs of having to hold my tongue on occasion. But if that balance were different, nothing forces me to stay with this site. Which leads to the most important point, This is just an internet site! Not worth the disgruntlement and unnecessary elevations in blood pressure.

hilarious! I can't resist commenting that part of Mr. Axel Frog's goofy appearance could be due to a congenital Horner's syndrome (Right pupil is smaller and iris is paler than on the left).

Happy birthday, Jules!

No worries. Even if you have to ask the system administrator to reset the password, they're not going to bother looking at your mail.

LOL. Now I see why this is called Domaholics Anonymous!

Hilarious and touching as well. Fantastic work! :adulation:

Best wishes to those of you going back to school on Monday.

Happy 20th Birthday, gottalme508! May all your wishes come true.

I've thought that too. Perry's dad leaving his new wife and moving back to California would certainly be a more substantial outcome. I'm sure that's what Perry wishes for, and part of me wishes that for him too. At the same time, I suspect that this is too much to expect. Plus, in doing what would seem to be the honorable thing, Perry's dad would have to commit another big wrong in the process: breaking another heart, and reneging on yet another set of marriage vows. There is no clear best path to take here. (I'm presuming that his new wife is an innocent. If it should turn out that she was in fact a conniving jezebel who had schemed to win back the trophy boyfriend from high school, then she would deserve to be dumped.) Whatever happens, I think the best we can hope for is bittersweet. The juxtaposition of your last paragraphs is interesting. Do you think that lack of a masculine presence has made Perry unable to say "no"?

LOL, Baltar is even more whiney than Apollo...and he killed Crashdown! Argh! My favorite is Helo:

Isn't it funny how you write a minor character, but even that small part of your writing reaches out to someone? The post-Disneyland conversation where Jake gets all choked up really touched me. Anyway, deserting his wife and son was certainly not defensible. He was weak and selfish, and he really hurt them. At the same time, I think you really showed in the last 2 chapters how his actions are understandable, and, one can hope, eventually forgiveable. Understandable in that for almost 2 years, he was starved for affection; his wife couldn't accept comfort from him, and in her depression froze him out sexually. And after she slowly recovered, the dysfunctional pattern of interaction established over the long bad stretch had become habitual, and couldn't just vanish instantly. Even while still loving his wife & son (and from that post-Disney phone call it's clear that he never stopped loving them), I can empathize with how he would still be dying a little every day, and it just wasn't enough. Forgiveable because, just as you said, he's only human, full of weaknesses and frailties. Just struggling to be happy, like all the rest of us. Then he fell in love with someone he shouldn't have fallen in love with, which again I can totally empathize with; I think all gay people understand at least a little about not being able to help who you love. Plus, I think it would be a real coming of age and step of maturation for Perry to come to see his dad as human, learn to forgive him and love him despite his weaknesses, and also come to stop prejudging Jake's new wife as "that b**ch" who stole my dad away. It would be so healing for both Perry and his dad. Perry has a big heart, and I think he can do it. So I guess you could say that I'm a Jake fan in that I'm rooting for him (& for Perry).

?whore-cruh-sees (as if it were spelled horcruces)?

To take the other side of things: let's have fewer inhibitions about grammar & spelling, more new chapters!

Congratulations, hoodster! If I can be completely selfish here, let me make a plea for getting part VI started sometime while you're revising I-V. Can't wait for the next fix! Especially looking forward to Perry's reunion with his dad. I really like his dad so far; please keep him one of the good guys!
