Okay CJ, I will give my view as a reader. this is what I read in your story, and I don't believe you can deny this isn't the message that your were trying to get across: So someone who doesn't use cliffies (referred to 16 times) or cliffhangers (twice), you sure referred to them a lot in a 6 paragraph story. And you know what the irony is? What happened to the goatherder? We'll never know, as once again, CJ finishes with a cliffhanger, literally! Steve

Oh, so kinda like Graeme

Yes we do. It is basically the same as the US holiday of a feast to thank for the harvest. Since we are a bit more Northern, our harvest is a bit earlier. The only differnece is that it doesn't kick off the Christmas shopping season . Oh, and Thank You Ieshwar Steve

To all my fellow Canadians out there Happy Thanksgiving Enjoy the day and make sure that you give your thanks for all the great things in our lives. Including the great community we have here a GA. Steve

Ok, my guess is for Dimitri and Vladimir to be driving across the outback, when suddenly a kangaroo bounds in front of their vehicle. Unable to slam on the breaks quick enough, the Kangaroo dies like an insect on the windshield. The roo was hit with such force, it breaks the grill and mucks up the fan . Dimitri is so devastated with the death of the kangaroo that he decides to make up for it by dedicating the rest of his life to only doing good What do you think? Steve

I too was wondering the same thing, but I guess the answer is in "who" the question is being asked to. If it was asked to all hetrosexual married couples, don't you think that the majority of both questions would be no? Now ask that question to gay men, and you will have a lot who say a yes to the gay son, but no to the lesbian daughter, but only because they are not exactly familiar with the lesbian lifestyle (I'll admit, I'm one). Now if you asked of Lesbian women, I would guess that they would be slightly more okay with the daughter than the son for the same reason. Lastly, what would be interesting if you asked just parents of GLBT kids, what the answer would be, remembering some parents accept it, and some totally reject it. I don't care for the poll myself, but have really enjoyed the posts saying why they voted the way they did. Thanks Kevin Steve

Now if I had the time and if anyone was really interested, I guess we could list every forum that you are the lead poster . And since you think it is just because your name is on the forum, maybe go check out one with Shadowgod's name on it . Statistical Glitches....I don't know if even Joe can help you out on this one.

Happy Birthday BeaStKid!!! Make sure you have a blast in your last year as a kid .

Really???? By disclosing this information you realize all claims of you being a lurker will be over and done with There, hopefully nobody knows how to read the above information. Hopefully it maintains your lurker status for a day or two. Steve

I must disagree with you here Jan. In FTL, CJ continually tried to point out Eric's good points, too which many thought he was pulling their legs. Then in the end, really, it came down to Eric being the unsung hero. But, in LTMP, The Scar and Dimitri did something that Eric never did in FTL. They have killed countless people. Therefore, I don't believe in this story that CJ can convince us that they are just misunderstood . Steve

Very interesting information available about this one particular forum. Let's have a quick look: Poster Posts C James 8 Graeme 3 AFriendlyFace 2 Conner 1 Bondwriter 1 wildone 1 Ieshwar 1 EMoe57 1 TalonRider 1 So really, as of right now, in this forum, who is the postaholic? Steve

Actually that was exactly what I thought about when I made my predictions. Why would they have to "sneak" them out of Jerry's place if they were eighteen? I think there is a lot more about these girls than what has been presented. I still think there is a bit of blackmail in the letter that Helen is holding. Really, look at the author of this fine story. Isn't it the same person who may or may not have blackmailed his fans to vote a certain way in a poll or face the possibility of the next chapter being delayed . And to further build my claim, CJ, your a lurker , you never use cliffhangers , and you'd never use blackmail :wacko: . Steve

I've been quietly reading this with interest. I see a lot of good points being made, but I also see misinterpretation of others comments to back their point. Can I ask primarily of CJ and 97a as well as Bondwriter one question: If we all agree that Iran is wrong in their treatment of Homosexuals, what can the average person do to try and change this? I know this is a big question, but it has been on my mind the past week since the president of Iran was in New York. Thanks, Steve

Yesssss!!!!! Finally the scene we have all been waiting for . Don't read on if you haven't read the story yet. I loved how Chase dealt with Jon and Eric, especially Jon. I think of all of them, Jon has the most growing up to do. I'm going to go out on a limb here, but could the vestal virgins have been exactly that except maybe they were underage vestal virgins to be more accurate. How long would it take for some blackmail to happen by them sending a letter to Helen stating that Jon and Eric had their ways with the poor underage girls. Also maybe something to the extent of needing a certain amount of money to make it go away, and if they don't agree, then they will go to the press and even disclose more juicy information about Chase and Brandon. :wacko: It think Jon and Eric have really screwed things up in the short term. Hopefully Helen borrows Chase's drum and does her on impromptu drum solo with the drum actually over his head. Oh well, I'm definitely happy that the two guys finally talked and got somewhat intimate. But I'm still riled up over Jon and Eric that I will have to calm down some first. Great chapter CJ!! And thank you for finally giving us the kiss. Steve

I'm not even going to try to touch that one . But like Bondwriter said, one more in the Herd of Capricans Kevin. But like any group, there will always be a bit of infighting. So if the worse is some claiming they are only part of a Herd, and some claiming to be only a Caprican, I'd say we're doing good . Looking forward to many posts from a fellow lurker . Steve

In a way, the twenty one rule all across the states is kinda a good way compared to up here in the Great White North. I live in a province that has a legal drinking age of 18, and there is one other one up here. Everyone else I believe it is nineteen. This creates a lot of problems in "border" towns, where kids that are not eighteen will cross over and buy booze, or go to the bar, and then decide they need to go home. Looking back, was I mature enough to drink at 18? I think Eric proved what most 18 year olds would do when drunk. Although I may have not jumped table to table at a party, that would probably pale in comparison to some of the things I did :wacko: . In a way, my opinion is that kids should maybe be exposed at even a younger age to alcohol, then they would learn to respect it more as they grew older. I think 90% of kids binge drink on their 18th here because they legally can. I imagine it is the same in the other provinces at 19 and most likely at 21 in the states. Well there is my two cents, now I'm off to enjoy a nightcap before sleep. Steve

Congratulations Emoe!!! I had originally thought of setting a goal of matching the number of posts CJ has, but realized that would never come true. At least with your number of posts, I can still dream . Good on ya! Steve

Sorry, haven't been around too much in the blogs, as I usually look forward to reading yours. Now, penises, and lots of them!!! Can I get an advance copy....pleassse As for your question Viv, I kinda like the open ended ending. It allows me to have some freedom in deciding what happens in the characters future. But beware, it also will probably set you up to be called upon to write a sequel. Either way, whatever you decide to write, I will anxiously wait "The End" Steve

Ditto here! I don't want to be an enabler anymore . Steve

Hey, another question popped into my mind that Graeme kinda alluded to earlier. I don't really expect a definite yes or no from our resident goat author, but here it is: Could CJ be deceiving enough, and cunning enough, and mean enough to have the title Wild Wild Night to be in reference to The Scar and the senorita for hire? Would this mean a chapter dedicated to the two of them copulating, ewwwww!!!! No poll involved, you all know CJ, is this what he has in mind? Steve

Okay, I didn't realize just how stubborn you Capricans can be. Sort of like that whole "you can lead a horse to water, but you can't make him drink" thing. As a member of this totally dysfunctional group , who will probably be arguing next on if CJ wears boxers, briefs, boxer briefs or nothing at all, may I re suggest something that appeared earlier in the thread. Shall we go with The Herd of Capricans? Now notice that I did put Herd first, as they did actually garner more votes than the Capricans. Maybe with one less forum going, we can concentrate on all the other polls going on . Steve Edit to Add: As a gesture of goodwill, I have even reluctantly changed the signature.

8, 6. 3????? Insert the word "guys" instead of "posts" per day, and your just all whores!!!!! Steve **Steve now tries to break into the logging system to try to hide the number of posts he really has**

So a question just occurred to me, and I thought that I would ask our Goat for a reply. If we look at the ten chapters so far, here is there titles: Death Of A Dream Roadie Outing Fish Out Of Water Moving Day A Kiss Lump's Return Going Public Anticipation Tequila Wild Wild Nights (yet to be released) So, I noticed that the last three titles have been song names of some popular songs (possibly A Kiss too). Is this a new them that we can look forward too? Just wondering, Steve

I voted no too! I do think the silliness is an indication to new readers that we are anxiously waiting for the next chapter. It seems the first couple of days is of actual critique or compliment of the chapter. Once there is no more to be said, it becomes a free for all on who to blame for the previous chapter, Cj or Shadowgod. . Now since LTMP 10 was realeased today, and this isn't the actual thread, may I bring up something else. Could there be a division arising amongst the Capricans? It seems the Herd is doing exactly what you'd expect, being a herd . Could it be that this division might even rear it's ugly head in the latest run off poll? Steve

Another great chapter CJ , with another misleading chapter. But I guess it is only misleading to all of us that want something more to happen between Chase and Brandon. I am now confused about The Scar. He has two of his cronies heading off to Australia to create some bombs, meanwhile he is in Paraguay where he plans a coup, and takes over running the country. So now we have a third locale for the stories to merge. Since I don't think the boys tour will take them down under, or to Paraguay anytime soon (better not be before the Canadian dates are announced ). So it looks like The Scar has a very complicated, devious plot going. Also on The Scar front, do we know where he came into his money? It seems like there is a lot to dispose of to make his plans come true. Now, I'm also wondering how Jon and Eric getting laid will help Chase and Brandon finally hook up. If I were to guess, there may be more hetro sex in the next chapter than between the two youngins. I was also surprised by the outburst from . I know he is trying to rebuild his relationship with Helen and Instinct, but is this a glimpse into what he is like in the future. If it is, then maybe the guys have more to worry about than they do in Lump. Also, with Brandon now on the cover of RS, and in the tabloids, I think it will only bring trouble. With the way the American tabloid industry seems to work, once there appears to be a hero, they go into overdrive to dig up dirt and discredit the hero status. I think all the guys will have to really keep an eye out for things developing. Does Gabe know anything about Brandon's past? I'm sure he would sell a story for ten bucks if he could get it. Lastly, CJ, the whole description of the pool photo shop was hot . The whole idea of the boys being photographed in wet jeans was way more sexy than maybe a speedo in my mind. Thanks for the last image . Steve
