I certainly hope this Arizona Goat isn't being written about on bathroom walls in Florida! Twister? Hmmm, nah, can't have that, too much bodily contact!! I think that is is your job, as writer, to come up with innovate ways of interrupting them.

Because we didn't want to leave you out. Inclusively and all that.

Happy Birthday!!! I hope all is going well for you! I miss you! CJ

Wow, so we have a Loong way to go! COOL! Don't suppose you could tell us how many chapters are in book one? Hmmmm... the more I think about it, the more I realize that I wanted to say that it was unrealistic that they would go with stangers to drink like that, but, the key word is "wanted", because, clearly, things like that do happen in real life, all too often.

I loved Galens sandwich!!! Ty has some interesting talents I am deeply offended! How could you possibly use the term "goat" in a less than favorable light? And that last line! You are EEEVIL! What a place to end it! Hmmm.. I bet I know what is on their minds, though... They want to play backgammon, right? Thank you Darkshadow, that was great!!

Thanks Myr!! I've also noticed something: until recently you couldn't select multiple comments to reply to the way we can in the forums due to the "quote" button not working in blogs, but it works now! Thansk!!!

He's got about 50 posts more than you do, but he's been a member for nearly twice as long, so that puts you in the #1 position for Avian posts per day! Nick, I appologize for my oversight! As a member of the Millenium Club, you certainly do qualify!!! I've edited my post to add your nomination!

Yep, but you should be used to it, as evil as you are... ACK! It is hard enough waiting a week! Seriously though, sorry there will be a small delay, but the good things in life (like living in surreality) are well worth the wait! I just hope you don't leave us with one of your patented EEEVIL cliffhangers! BTW, anyone have any guesses on how much hot water Jacob and Matt are in? Will they still be able to see each other? And poor Jacob! He got caught again! And poor Matt, what a way to end your first BJ! That was just plain EEEVIL!

James, my sincere appologies for leaving you off of my nominations list! I shall correct the situation at once! Software glitch? But Graeme, I think you might be misinterpreting the exceedingly complex mathematical and statistical data involved. Ummm, Jack, did you just say that no one can prove their case against my claims of being a lurker? Why, thank you! I couldn't agree more! Go easy on Jack Frost, he's just an earnest yourg writer waiting for his Muse to strike. Perhaps, in the spirit of writerly camaraderie, we should join in hoping that his Muse does, indeed, strike? (and for those who don't get the reference, it is to the story "the Muse", linked in my sig. ) But for a Bird, that surely qualifies you as a postaholic? Unless there are birds who post more than that?

Thank you Michael!!! I've never tried to write a car chase before, so I was rather uneasy about it. As for Eric, well, I can't say very much without giving out spoilers... So, I really can't say much of, well, anything. Hmmm, I can say that he likly has a plan, though.

Why, of course you can play too, Lugh! I'll even edit my list to add you. Poor, silent Graeme? <cough!> You two are the only ones who average five posts a day! At the moment I see he's blazing away at 24 posts in the last 24 hours! A post an hour!! (BTW, a note to anyone curious: you can look up anyone's post-per day average in their profile. It's down on the left side.) I have no idea whom this cloven-hooved critter that you refer to could possibly be <nervously hides feet>. How could anyone possibly post more than you two?

Very intreguing, and it left me wanting to hear more. I think you might find that some people have issues with your use of "Moses", but I suspect you know that. I'm looking foward to seeing where you go with this. My only concern would be: how much, really, can he have to say about why?

But Darkshadow, you are one of only two members (the other is Greame) to have an average of five posts a day, so I think that clearly means that you post a lot. Horns, and cloven-hooved feet? Hmmm, when i hear that description I can only think of something that has those and a pointy tail as well. Note the Emoticon. So, surely not I.

Never let it be said that a Goat is not willing to admit when he is wrong! I had forgotten how fond you are of all those extra "u's" in your words. I'll eveun truy ann remembeur to add theum into woruds wheun I knouw youu will be reauding theum.

Ahhh! Never let it be said that I am afraid to admit when I am wrong, for here, clearly, I am wrong! You did indeed call me "My favourite lurker..." and not "My favorite lurker...". Humbly, and with profound appologies, your favourite lurker, CJ

Huh? Matthew, I'm shocked, shocked I tell you, that you would doubt me so! Why, I can easily prove that I am not in denial! I can point you to hundreds and hundreds and hundreds of my posts wherin I say, unequivicobly, that I never post! As for any refutation by me, I shall prove that I am a lurker by not replying to your post, which is why you are not actually seeing this. I shall not respond to these clearly unfounded accusations! I shall also quash the silly rumor that a new species of Goat has been discovered in the high mountains of Arizona, and has been classified as Goatus Internetus Blabbermouthus. If there was any such creature, I'm sure I'd have seen one, and I haven't. But Graeme, it IS in my proflile (the comment dated Nov 3rd) and you even refer to it above, so how can you possibly deny it? What? But CaptainRick, surely you can't blame me for all this? It's not as if I coined the phrase "postaholic", after all! Awww, Kurt! Not you too? I don't know what it is. Suddenly, one day, your post counter starts reading in the quadruple digits, and all of a sudden, out of the blue, people start rumors that you post a lot. It's all so very unfair... <sniff..> AhHA! Denial! I can smell it a mile away!

But Krista, I am not a postaholic! You can't be a lurker and a postaholic at the same time, after all! I'm far from sure that simplicity would accomplish what we seek. After all, there is a reason that legal documents are written in exhausting detail; to avoid confusion and misdirection. Simplicity, in this case, might also inadvertantly miss-classify someone... Definitions are such tricky things, so for the sake of accuracy I must argue in favor of my more detailed definition. Besides, if my own precious reputation as a lurker might be in danger, in invite everyone to take a peek in my profile: Now take a look at the comment by Graeme on Nov 3rd: It says "My favorite Lurker...".

Still no match, as no one at GA currently has a post total of exactly 2,366 Well, of course I'm a lurker! Everyone knows tht I almost never post... Of course, I did just log into the lounge, and while lurking , what did I see? Why, the top five threads, all with Graeme as the most recent poster! I think my date of membership might be a tad off. I think one post a month would qualify as a lurker? So, that means that I joined this website on February 15th, 1809. Or, we could define a postaholic as anyone who has three, four, five, or six posts a day (no one has six or seven, though Graeme will reach 6 any day now ). But Graeme, this is for postaholics NON-anonymous! Nothing wrong with being a postaholic, its a good thing! So, embrace your postaholic nature! Celebrate it! Ill even proclaim if for you!

Hi Krista! I edited my postaholics list to add you (I knew there were a lot of people I was forgetting to add!). As for your riddle, hmmmm, I'm sorry, but I have no idea whom you could possibly mean? Nobody at GA presently has a post total of exactly 2,365.

That bit with the pictures when they first met definitly made me think "uhoh!", and then the drinks, definitly set off my alarm bells. Jonah and Sky were so happy to meet another gay couple that they were definitly being naive. Very well done, and it worked great! I also note the "this time"... Uhoh! Although, they sure are in hot water now due to Sky's arm, that was definitly naive, and all too believable, sadly. Hmmm... We still don't really know if Steve and Adam have good intentions or not. As you say, things worked out ok this time... What? Me? Do a cliffhanger? Would I do such a thing? Besides, you STARTED this story with a cliffhanger, and who knows how many chapters it will be until we find out what happens to Sky and Jonah after their outing.

<de-lurks> Well, I'm definitly not eligible myself , but can we nominate people? I can think of quite a few... In no particular order... Jack Frost (although I think he prefers to call himself a postwhore ) Graeme AFriendlyFace Dark Shadow shdowgod Kurt Emoe Matthew Captain Rick NickolasJames8 James Savik Birdsofafeather Krista Lugh Hmmm, I know I missed a bunch! I'll have to get back to your with more nominations! <goes back to lurking > Hi Andy!! Glad to see you posting some more! It can be a lot of fun... Well, so they tell me anyway.

Adam and Steve were cool, though it did spook me a lot when the invited two minors back for drinks! I'll bet that was intentional on your part: Great! I like their way their relationship is developing: The unease, the growing acceptance, very well done. And yet another EVIL cliffhanger!!!! ARGH! This one is even more wicked than the last! :ranger: I can't wait to see who the guy with something in his hand is. My guess? Adam or Steve, there to save Jonah and Sky's necks. They sure sound like they need saving at this point!!

Laid? Hmmm... I don't know... Maybe I should have them keep getting interupted for the rest of the story, and rename it "Blue Spheres"? Thank you Jack!!! BTW, a question for everyone: This was my first attempt at writing a car chase scene. Did it read ok? Anything that I could have done differently to improve it?

Definitly! Water Polo. I enjoy the scenerey. Do you wish that you could run on four feet?

Absolutly! Work can be very frusterating at times. The person below me works weekends
