  1. I like this poem. It has a nice rhythm to it. The repetition and obsessive thoughts are well carried through. It would make a great song. Or read aloud.
  2. Actually, the songs must be sung in French. Law passed in 1994 if I remember correctly. But if an American artist sings in French, it's OK. A dumb law indeed. Glad to know about the other one. I wasn't aware of it. I'll rename my pig Bonaparte.
  3. Mormons or Jehovah witnesses maybe? An Avon Lad? Do they have people who sell Amway products door-to-door? I bow to someone who makes fun of he who mocked my manhood, and now makes fun of my poor mother. I'm not sure I like this canyon theory. Gays in fiction always died until very recently (well, in movies at least), so if we could have heroes riding towards the setting sun (no matter what or whom they ride... )

    Shoe Whore?

    I'd say anyone with more than 8 pairs of shoes (outside "special footwear", as working shoes or shoes designed for sports as rock-climbing or sailing, etc.) should definitely be labeled a shoe whore. Flip-flops are outside the count, too. As for you raise... 1/ Organize! If the union route is not your thing, then... 2/ Threaten to leave, after assessing your worth to the organization. Sadly enough, people higher in the hierarchy often think it's easy to replace a valuable person until she/ he has quit. If none of these satisfy you... 3/ Suffer in silence.
  5. It's a nice start. The most unsettling aspect is this influence of someone Seth only knows from a website. He's so vulnerable he lets this mysterious Ana take over his life with her health-hazardous advice. Curious to know how Seth can reconcile Ana's dubious philosophy with his real-life's friends' advice and feelings. Oh, this is very well told/ written, by the way.
  6. I don't mind, it's part of the fun of reading a story taking place in a surrounding that is not familiar to me. If you cannot make them understood from context, a little glossary at the end wouldn't hurt.
  7. Since you hijack Steve's thread to shamelessly promote your evil characters and display your self-delusion, I'll use it to take back what I said about the cruel and unusual punishment of being stuck with Jack Frost. It could be some form of therapy for both of you so you see the errs of your ways. Notwithstanding my housecleaning chores and administrative job would be considerably lessened. And Richard is not the villain you so complacently describe, but the average middle-aged man going through a crisis. We all know a few just like him, don't we? I still have to meet a kid who makes money out of his brother's sex life.
  8. Welcome, Nexis! Glad you found your way here eventually. I should point out Nexis posted two new stories: Dreamwork This one is for mature audiences only, and deals with rather heavy themes. Kidnapping, SM, dominance/ submission. But with the little twist to make the reader think about these. Not exactly J.O. material. The End A bittersweet tale of an ending relationship, with questions about manipulation and deviousness in ordinary couples' relationships. Once again the style is amazing. Hey, Jack, we have three people commenting on these stories, since Ieshwar joined the party. And a cheque in the male? So, a male in the mail? Sweet!
  9. :) Weird laws in the State of Florida I love the porcupine one, and the elephant.
  10. Yeah, this could be a little cruel and unusual... On with serious stuff! Betty will certainly please Old Bob in this episode, no doubt. As I love secret passages, I think we're on to something with the brick wall. Another chapter packed with action. Great to see the boys ready to fight back thanks to this out lawyer called
  11. Hoping this 22nd year will bring good things: at school, in your personal life... Hugs and cheers!
  12. Not even gonna continue on cliffhangers since CJames is delusional about THIS TOO. We may only hope Cody is better than what we were told about him. Actually we did not witness his encounter with Raul, so we don't know how smart he is. I think that Catherine is the type of characters who may crumble easily under a pressure properly applied. So, yeah, bring on 21 soon!
  13. I'd warn you that it must be a tiring job to get the said person to work properly. I'd be too afraid to have to use violence to have him earn his daily bread. If I could have the boy from the Poconos AND the Arizonian goat (who seems to be multi-skilled, and that I imagine could be profitable beyond cheese making), they would keep each other company (basically watch each other) and maybe it would turn out well. Well, when this thread is starting to get really silly, it usually means it's time for a new episode. So, thanks to my seer senses, I foresee a new chapter within 24 hours.
  14. I found it funny until it started making fun of our fine wine industry, and implying the French would sell Dom Perignon to an elusive terrorist. It would be quite a waste. Plus Jacques Chirac being clueless? Nah! Nice April's Fool, Jack!
  15. Pot... Other kitchen container... Dark color.... Good point. So far, Cody has not been given tons of credit. Do we know anything about him besides his little adventure with Jacob? I'm hence equally curious to see if he manages to play it smart and outwit the two stooges.
  16. No! But we actually had a surprise Bday party for a friend on April 1st. Fun it was! The person below me will meet with friends for a quiet evening tonight.
  17. Yeah, Andrew's parents are very, VERY nice. Would I be them, he would definitely be grounded big time, and he wouldn't have to wonder about Jarred's text messages or his cell phone ringing, I'll tell you. I'm not 100% sure that he learned his lesson. And the situation with Jarred and Phillip is bound to bring future problems. I hope some ordeals will help him to listen to his heart rather than to his hormones. The narrative is very nicely done, the episodes selected to get the plot moving and Andrew's psyche explained are just perfect. Nice story overall, I really like the fact that the first person character changes from chapter to chapter.
  18. I'm surprised that with all this hanging around the mall, you did not meet yet the other big hazard: being offered a greeter position at Abercrombie & Fish by guys stalking you in the parking lot.
  19. I really enjoy the gym/ male strippers universe. It's quite exotic for me. Jeremy is still a very likeable character who seems willing to make the good choices. He's a good man, and makes us want to see good things happening in his life. For the coffee thing: did you people notice he left "enough brewed coffee" for his mom and sister. At the same time, Gavin did speak the title phrase in offering the job over the cheese fondue, so what is it really about?
  20. I wanted the 666 post so that no representative of the Devil would have it. Not bait, meat. But Shdwgod's concern about poisoning the poor birds is quite valid. And don't cry for him, the little pile of feces still got an award for his wicked devious ways. May The Good Lord Bless you! At last you're making sense! They didn't abolish slavery in Texas?
  21. And a Happy Birthday to You!

    I can sleep now

    I admire your having this "assignment to complete" kind of thing/ attitude. I'm looking forward to reading your anthology entry. I hope you do not see this as a burden!
  23. Oh! So that's why I have a big ego!
  24. Darn! I wanted to get #666! And I missed it, not knowing what to reply to Graeme, and yet aware of a certain goat lurking over this thread and in league with the Devil (a goat's fixture) and ready to strike and jump on the occasion! The mere fact that CJames defends so eagerly this Spawn of Beelzebuth that Eric is should be evidence enough of the twerp's villainy.
