Well, a belated Happy Valentines day to you all. I love all the readers, contributors, staff here at GA. Will you all be my Valentine (a day late ) We shall move on quickly as I know VD is not a popular topic around here In more ways than one Remember last week when I I talked about the lost lotto ticket 😮 Well there was a sizable win out of my city 😮 I was talking to some people at work and they said I should call in to see if they can tell me anything, so I did Much to my surprise, and I'm sure to you too; it appears that if you have some definite information, you can actually file a lost ticket claim. I was shocked. The lady told me since I had two other tickets that were bought at the same time that I still had, and since I possess the bank card that bought all 3 tickets at the same time, the claim would most likely be valid. Then they would check and if the ticket won, I would be winner of the prize. But, we all have to remember I never win when I have the tickets, so what is the chance when I don't have the ticket Stay tuned for the next chapter in the Win/Lose or Draw of Steve's life Oh geez, i have to admit I only have been sucked in briefly to the Winter Olympics. I don't really want to get up at silly hours to watch games or events . Here is the sign of the week that I borrowed from Yahoo. Yah, I'm talking to you @Cia Time for a free for all discussion. What is on your mind within the limits of a GA Weekly Wrap Up To heck with that. I was out tonight with 4 gay guys and a straight guy. Straight guy is the nephew of one of the guys and is 25 and has no issue with the old gay men Like he says, he is secure in himself and his best friend came out when he was 18, so having a gay uncle made him willing to continue to be his best friend. I honestly believe him so no 'oh, he says he is straight' and other rhetoric So after we all called it a night, like at 8 PM ., he was going to catch a train downtown and hit the bars and see if he could pick up a woman 😮 I'll have to be honest, I was never one of those people that could just go to a bar by myself and try to make friends or hook up. I've always been one to shy away from that. How about you? Now, shall we get onto the Wrap? Monday, after sleeping through January, I was able to post the 2025 Year in Review that @Timothy M. did up for the Review Team: Tuesday, Mr.Mry was diving again! This time into General Fiction. Does this mean fiction involving Generals : Onto Thursday, Mry took a look back at a Poetry Anthology of the past, to see if he can get your juices flowing for an entry into the Poetry Anthology coming up very soon: Saturday, we completed 'Myr Week' here at the GA News Blog Mry introduced why you got a webpage up to finish your profile, this time on favourite genres. Also why he was doing this. There is further discussion on some suggestions and ideas from all of you! If you are reading this blog, I guess that means you have done it.

Hey all Are we all committed to sit on our couches and watch the winter Olympics from Milan and Cortina d'Ampezzo? I'm not sure I am Now, if I was there and being surrounded by gorgeous Italian men , then we'd be having another discussion . Oh wait, there is another game going on in Santa Clara 😮 I went back to work after a 2-week staycation, and I think I put in an 80 hour work week this week 😮 Only about 900 emails to work through on top of all my other jobs and tasks, I was so FML this week . But it is the weekend, which I am enjoying and not worry about the pile of work still to be slogged through until Monday. I think I should have gone somewhere on a trip that was nice, maybe the mess I came back to would have been worth it . Have you ever bought a lottery ticket or something like that, yes, I know it is gambling 💲but I have a limit and I stay in it, and then you get home and you go to reach in your jacket pocket and the ticket is missing 😮 That happened to me last night. That feeling of dread and thinking this might be the one . So, not to much you can do right? Well I can follow tonight's draw and it is won in my city, I guess I could contact the lottery board and put in a claim showing it was bought with my debit card . But 99.99999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999% chance it won't be worth nothing. But still. Now here is the question of the week What is the most significant thing you won in your life in some kind of raffle or lotto or the like. Doesn't need to be a paid ticket, so if you entered a contest for Hawaiian Punch at the grocery store and won a trip to Hawaii 🌴. I guess a couple of years ago I won a HS band 50/50 raffle for my nephew and won some money more than like $1000. I took part of the winnings and gave the rest back to the band that was raising the money. Now that we got you thinking back over your lifetime , let's see what happened over the past week at the GA News Blog. Monday, Cia was right off the start of the month with an all new CSR. Since we only have 28 days this month, get to reading: Tuesday, was the big kahuna's turn to do a Deep Dive: Thursday, Val and others had some great ideas on how to pump out some poetry for our upcoming Poetry Anthology: Friday, she was back thinking about a winter vacation: Now that Part A and B are done of the Blog, let's move onto C . The Words of the Day. I wonder if there is a certain theme to an upcoming day hidden in this list of words . tenderness, ache, devotion, intimacy, affection, hesitant, longing Upcoming Writing Events 2026 Poetry Anthology "Choices" - Due March 30, 2026 - Find all the information right here. 2026 Yearly Anthology "Horizons" & "Unspoken" - Due October 1, 2026 - Find all the information right here.

Hmmm, so we are 1 down and 11 to go in months of this year. Where did January go! Groundhog day is a coming, so just in case you haven't seen the movie like 100 times staring Bill Murray, especially over and over again on Groundhog Day, keep your eyes out on your local listings 🙄 A question for my friends to the south, how did you handle your small wisps of winter that we deal with from Nov. to May I shouldn't laugh, as places like Georgia and Texas among other places are not really equipped to handle that kind of weather. One of the most interesting things I saw in one visit to an unusually wintery week down in Dallas many years ago, was Highway Dept. pickup trucks driving down the interstates with guys standing in the back shoveling sand out of the back of the truck onto the road . I think that put things in perspective for me. Up here you will see a snow plow go by with 2 trailers dog legged behind the original plow so they can clear 3 lanes of highway at a time and each has a huge bucket sand on them to spread sand after the blades push the snow off the highway. Now I don't know if you are a Superbowl fan or not, but I am told the the Patriots of New England are challenging the Seahawks of Seattle this year. If you do follow North American gridiron football (please don't yell at me, the rest of the world other than Canada and the US ) who are you cheering for? Also the winter Olympics are coming up in a few days too! If you happen to be in Italy, make sure you go down to the boy aquarium and check out the guys . Any predictions there as well? Now if you don't want to talk about sports or weather, let us have a free for all, where we can discuss whatever you want . Tell me what is on your mind, within the rules We had a good week this week at the GA News Blog, did we not? Monday, Cia had the CSR Discussion Day: Tuesday, Mr. Myr held a deep dive looking into the Comedy Genre: Thursday, Mr. Myr was back again doing a waaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaay back look at an Anthology from 2007. I think I was still in High School back then : Friday Ms. Val came in and turned the site into a tissy with a couple of new Prompts. Check them out but you can ignore the latter comments in the blog 😮: I know the days are getting longer in the Northern Hemisphere, and shorter in the Southern, but do you wonder if Myr gets up earlier in the day each day to post the Words of the Day at the crack of dawn? structure, consistency, subtext, resonance, foundation, execution, yearning Upcoming Writing Events 2026 Poetry Anthology "Choices" - Due March 30, 2026 - Find all the information right here. 2026 Yearly Anthology "Horizons" & "Unspoken" - Due October 1, 2026 - Find all the information right here.

Connor Storrie was one of the supporting actors, gay ironically, in the Texas football movie Riley in 2023. But both were waiting tables I believe when they got the roles. I liked Riley, but felt the story could go on longer. No, I don’t think Riley was written by @Krista

My secret has been revealed 🕺I did say last week that it might be on site or not. Well it turned out that I knew we were going to announce this year's Anthology Themes 🥳So that was my big secret. Thanks to our Admin Team who collaborated on discussing many different ideas of the past Anthologies, the number, the wording and the hopeful attraction to every one of our Authors and Poets, new, old and maybe ones that might be inspired that we have not met yet . Consideration was also taken in on past feedback from past participants and even the ones that maybe didn't participate in the past. We also heard people talking about their ideas this year. We will keep those in mind to in trying to appeal to as many of you as possible with also keeping in the mind the readers as well. We hope we have given everyone some food for thought. I think all of the other Admins hated my suggestions but at least I participated You can read more about the final themes in our Anthology Announcement. Even though it was on Thursday, let's put it up first this week! Now I usually have a bit of a preamble, or as Krista would say, cheekiness 😮 I don't think anyone would accuse me of being cheeky except her! With the cold, not only in North America, but I heard some places in Europe and other places are just down right nippy. Enough to make us nipply Get it We got a good dump or two of snow and some more on the way, then add on the -10 C / 14 F but add in the windchill we got to -20 C / -4 F. How about you? Tell me your woes if you have them. Anywho, I"m going to wrap up the rest of the week now Monday, Cia came in and brought us a new Signature Author Feature: Tuesday was Myr's turn up at bat, when he went diving: Cia came back on Wednesday to give us a Excerpt from our Signature Feature: So, how did you do on the Words of the Day? intent, precision, economy, balance, context, focus, emphasis Upcoming Writing Events 2026 Poetry Anthology "Choices" - Due March 30, 2026 - Find all the information right here. 2026 Yearly Anthology "Horizons" & "Unspoken" - Due October 1, 2026 - Find all the information right here.

Don't you think it would be interesting if Trace kicked him out for taking the truck Then we can get a whole new story Think of the upside I believe I have permission to slap you upside the head everytime you whine I've already did it once, don't make me do it again

You know what Ron, I don't see you adding anything constructive in this conversation, at all. Just tearing it down You seem to want Anthologies based on Prompts. Maybe there is a lot of authors out there that maybe agree with you, but coming out and dissing the volunteers that run this site and put time and effort into the selection of the themes is kind of disheartening. We will always give you the platform to express your thoughts. You have an opinion, and have made it clear. Since it doesn't help with the promotion of the Anthologies, maybe it is time to realize that we have heard you loud and clear and not really any need for anyone else to respond to your comments any further. Thank you for sharing your opinion.

I laughed, so the series is coming out in Italy Feb 2 I think, they have already invited both the guys to be torch bearers at the Winter Olympics

Yes, it is a quick easy way @Ron. They will see Ron and Wildone mentioned you in a topic: Heated Rivalry if they subscribe to notifications. If they don't subscribe, they don't want to know you, I guess Just kidding

You have to pull his attention here by @Mark Arbour'ing his name But does Mark follow hockey

So just notice of posting my 500th Blog 😮 I"m a blogging whore Just 2 days before my 20 year GAnniversary

Monday is the day they call Blue Monday. If you remember, last week I revealed to all that I was down in the dumps I really have to give you all the hugest hugs . After watching all the music vids and then watching 3 favourite shows: Ferris Buhler's Day Off, Red White and Royal Blue, and Heated Rivalry (my favourites, don't judge me ) and going for a longer walk, I was feeling better. I think distracting my mind for about 8 hours and then some exercise seemed to do the trick. I went to bed earlier and slept better that night and woke up in the morning feeling refreshed and ready for the day. Oh, and I read the first couple of chapters of a favourite story before closing my eyes. I guess when I said I hope it would be cathartic, it turned out to be Thanks to all of you. So how about all of you? Are you doing okay? I hope so as I don't want anyone going unprepared into Blue Monday or feeling down in the dumps today. Read last weeks blog and know that it can work for you too So I know a secret, I know a secret But, I'm sworn to secrecy Might have to do with something outside the site or not. But I have been threatened with *them* pulling every piece of body hair off of me with tweezers and a bottle of vinegar nearby if I flinch 😮 😮 !! For that reason, I shall keep my mouth shut. I will discuss more in next week's Weekly Wrap Up. Kind of sounds like a cliffhanger of your favourite story or tv show Stay tuned next week... Enough babbling from me On Tuesday, Myr was in the barn early that morning, saddling the horse and getting ready to ride into the Western sunrise with a Deep Dive: Thursday, he was back to do a flashing show, oh sorry, I meant a flashback Either way it involved Myr and flashing : Friday, Aditus used some naughty words in the Prompts : Now that we are onto the Words of the Day, I have to ask, how did you do? discordant, intrepid, recalcitrant, ruthless, succulent, clarity, cadence I got 4 of 7 Upcoming Writing Events 2026 Poetry Anthology "Choices" - Find all the information right here.

I've seen and bitten a few succulent peaches in my day 🍑

Going to my Nephew's grade 7 band concert was a fine example of being discordant. I was never that bad in grade 7

10. What is the name of the city that Fletcher County High is in? 11. What state are they in? 12. Did anyone understand the doors/exits or floorplan on the Connely house ? 13. What happened to Roy's little sister, or was she just another throw away character? 😮 Thank god you all kept up asking about Cody or else 14, What type of truck does Trace own, always up for a a good discussion; Ford, Chev, GM, Dodge, Toyata, Honda Telsa

I was going to say she is definitely not a red head. Temperament and stubbornness, definitely red level to the extreme!! I'd even say to a Red Alert Not to say all red heads have bad temperament and stubborn . But if they were, she would outshine them all!!!

i do like your banner though

Hey, this topic is about sports balls, or more like the balls on the guys that play sports Hit your back button and click on that big blue box saying Start New Topic I get to say this since I'm no longer your favourite moderator What do I have to lose

@chris191070, I understand it has blown up the UK streaming on Sky and Now over the weekend! Sounds like everyone in Hollywood wanted a piece of them at the Golden Globes But I know a lot of your opinions on Hollywood

You watched a sports balls movie 😮 I'm impressed

Howdy Ho Good Neighbours! I guess that is why they'd call it the blues.... Interesting, the holidays are over, the bills are coming in, back to work everyday of the week, the days are getting longer but still submerged in darkness for most of the day (in my longitude). They say the 3rd Monday of January is blue Monday, the saddest day of the year, but I think I've arrived a wee bit earlier . I just feel blah! So I need you all to give me something to do to cheer me up. Turn my frown upside down ! What do you do when you are feeling down in the dumps and you can't really put your finger(s) on it. I'm sure there is a few of you feeling the same, so let's talk about it and see if it is cathartic. I should pop over into the Games and Humour Forum. Or do you have a favourite joke? Tell me! I did have a busy week though. Someone, unnamed, wanted me to glance of over a nearly 25,000 chapter . Worked extra hours. Had a my first hour and a half massage that for reason I told my masseuse that I wanted a deep tissue massage and I hurt now. Now I've been watching Playdate on Prime, and I'm smiling a wee little bit . I wonder if the makers of a certain 2006-2009 TV show found any similarities. Now let us get down to business.
