    Yeah, my cousins got caught building rockets with cardboard tubes and gun powder before I got to play with them. They managed to launch several above the 50-foot limit. So they said. Well, we just had to turn back to the BB gun next. Oh, and do not fear; I know a lot of kids who still manage to do perfectly creative and stupid things.

    Whereas kids should be left to have games outdoors that may be dangerous (tree-climbing, reckless bike riding, etc.), manufacturers may be deemed liable for making faulty products that may become harmful. In this case, the amount of radioactivity seems to have been minimal, since the negative effects of radioactivity were known well enough to avoid making a really dangerous kit. Plus the price of radioactive material was high, possibly.

    I wouldn't take the article as seriously as some of the readers do? "Even more uncertain is the long-term impact of being raised by the kind of nerds who would give their kid an Atomic Energy Lab." is a line way too tempting to be avoided. The 50s fascination for anything "atomic" seems quite weird a few decades later that not going for the joke would have been a sin. And I think Jerry also some toys with sharp edges and gun powder too.

    Nice tattoo. Still partial to ever getting one, but this makes me wonder...
  5. Bondwriter
    It's in his blog.

    Yes, it seems The Scar's ways have a bad influence on readers... *sighs* By the way, did you notice the Latin influence on the title? Does it come from the Rome discussion there was earlier on?

    A rock singer would, I guess. I've seen many who do, and manage quite well.

    No congrats from me, I agree with Jack Frost, and I've made it clear celebrating quantity was not my thing. But millions of thanks and hugs for your good humor, genuine attention to others, heartfelt concern and clear extensive posting. Should there be an ISO certification in Postwhoring Quality, you'd set a standard to be followed and taught.

    Late, but willing to wish you a happy birthday nonetheless, my Welsh fellow. I'm not sure who's right on your age, but it's too late to change the candle.

    This was well done IMO. Adam is just a secondary character, whose sole narrative purpose is getting killed, but he's introduced enough to the reader so that the murder appears really evil.

    I agree with Gary. Time to bring in some action, besides the little boys games these youngsters play. The Scar rules! The poor guy who crosses his path should have been less curious. Nicely done character, by the way, and I'm no longer kidding.

    In Nifty's defense, I'd imagine the agreement is also a way not to spend lots of time maintaining the site and having to cater to authors' requests all the time, since it's not a very big operation from what I understood. I'd think being polite and considerate should get you what you want from the site.

    I'm quite surprised since he has this shirtless fetish too. No Speedos, though. I'm quite puzzled as to what will become of The Scar's hands. Vladimir should surprise us with something unexpected, it's been hinted too much already that he was to disappear at the end of the job. Unless, of course, the bomb does blow up and The Scar's plans actually work. This surely would bring an unexpected ending.

    It might sound unpopular, but all of Eric's nice adventurous skills are kind of set off by his using small animals for pulling pranks. Boldness, yes, recklessness, no! Pranks, yes, torture, no! It's good Jerry brings back some values in this story: hard work, empowering key players with achievements, aiming at one's goal and following it...
  15. Bondwriter
    Eric: Lewd and lascivious behavior. Dumb pranks. Cruelty to (small) animals. General recklessness. Drunkenness. This is not a very good role model, is it?
  16. Bondwriter
    Happy Birthday, dkstories! And four years of participation to GA to celebrate. Have fun.

    Be afraid. Be VERY afraid! (I'm a nice guy, though I do not use many smilies, which sometimes makes me "sound" more serious than intended. But yes, I hunt post whores for fun, and when I find one... Well, you don't want to know.)

    If you replace hero by "key character to move the plot forward", we can reach an agreement. We can't consider either to be main characters (Eric in FTL disappears for a huge number of chapters) and LTMP's is more prominent, yet not THE main character but ONE OF THE main characters. But they're both essential to the plot.
  19. Bondwriter
    Mmmh. I'm not the one to stir controversy, you know me. But it's been almost a whole day since my questioning above post, and no reply. So, do our volume-challenged participants (the PC way to call postwhores) shy away from tackling actual issues or what?

    Elle de Generes takes a few minutes to talk about the murder of a 15-year old kid who was murdered by a guy he asked to be his Valentine. She's quite emotional, and presses voters to take hate crimes into account when casting their ballot.
  21. Bondwriter
    Lots of insightful comments. I was wondering whether Eric was not being given a bad rap. I mean, he's in a minority of straight people in this story, and he pulls sophomoric pranks, engages in promiscuous immoral sex, is on his way to becoming a drunk. Isn't he going to make the minority of readers who are straight feel bad about themselves? On a completely different plane, did you notice Vladimir and Dimitri were the first names of the future president and prime minister of Russia? Though the roles are inverted, Vladimir being more of the boss in RL. I really wonder what political statement CJ is making through this story.

    Just checked my Cayman Islands account's balance. Then the Liechtenstein's. Nothing from Arizona there. No transfer, no support, I thought I had made my venality explicit enough. So I'll just deny having ever said such a thing.

    And now, for a little more randomness, the names of the guilty...

    His taste for three-ways must hide some strange leanings.
  25. Bondwriter
    Yeah. Indeed. But will you get them from the wearhouse?
