Tiger

He does have depth. A corrupt preacher does seem to have a lot of potential as a story's antagonist, but I would never insult Jan like that. hope I am allowed to post that.

Motley Crue "Don't Go Away Mad (Just Go Away)"

I might be a part of it as well. I edit for one and beta for another. As mentioned before, I will likely be beta reading for a second one.

I thought he was somehow based upon me. Anyway, I actually do agree about the biker thing. I don't know any Tims who are bikers.

It is a rarity, but yes I have. He does tend to bloviate... well, I guess I need a better word. He is not pompous or arrogant. He does, however, discourse at length. His posts are always interesting. That's for sure. I just want to have a chance to catch up.

There is some truth to that. However, I have slowed down somewhat. I just wish Kev would slow down. At this rate, I'll never be able to catch him. Not really... I will probably be ahead, but there's still a gap of over 400. I don't post as much as I used to.

I could probably do that, but I would rather not. I like the stuff I write, because it has a level of originality. The only thing I seem to really be guilty of is changing POV. However, I am now much more comfortable with 3rd, and I can easily write stories in 3rd.

That's great. I reached 2700 recently. Your absence allowed me to close the gap a bit. I'll probably be at 3000 by the end of June.

Actuall, the correct term is frot. Frottage is a more general term for "sexual rubbing while naked or clothed during normal sexual activity" according to the top of this page on Wikipedia. There's always a down side, Kev. Friends with benies are not for everyone. I never suggested otherwise.

TLC "Red Light Special"

That is an excellent double entendre! Yes, I agree with everyone that I'm glad you, CJ, were able to post 41 in time. It was certainly a good read. I have issues with my own graphics. There is still a driver issue.

Yes, I definitely love the title. In fact, I like all the titles so far. I won't reveal the names of them, but I can say that I like them.

See below about the editor issue. Yes, this is a mild cliffhanger. I cannot deny it. Well, I think a hero is much better than a corrupt preacher!

I actually agree. I am still fairly new, so that is why I had not really thought of finishing one first. I think I often need a side project. I think short stories count for that. I happen to enjoy writing short stories anyway. I do intend for my next novella (or novel) to be finished before I post any of it. It is much better that way. I will still post one chapter at a time though. That allows me to use an evil cliffhanger, not that I would ever take advantage of such an opportunity. Anyway, the point is that I understand why he wants to be able to have two projects at once. I can be a lot of fun. However, in my experience, one story is usually more enjoyable to write. I started Dark Earth: The Prophecy and Second Chances just days apart. Yet, I am much further along with DE:TP, because I like it more. That's why you're right about it being best to have one at a time that you actually post.

Black Sabbath "War Pigs"

This was certainly an interesting chapter. I hope this means that they're closing in on Jerry/Scar! I also could not help but notice a certain Deputy Sheriff was named Tim.

Christina Aguilera and Lil' Kim "Can't Hold Us Down" Heart "Never"

Carrie Underwood "I'll Stand by You" and "So Small"

That's what I was thinking. I really want one. Besides, that title seems to be more fitting for FTL anyway.

I can understand that feeling. I think it often gets to the point where at least one friend wants there to be something more. For me, it depends upon where I am on a psychological level. I think after a break-up would be prime time for me to fool around with a friend. Another factor is the sensuality. If someone tends to stay the night and cuddle, I'm more likely to develop some feelings. I think that's a mental thing. Anyway, I think I know who you're talking about. I'm sorry that it hurt your friendship.

Hinder "How Long"

I think I could possibly be with a woman, but she would have to be damn special and know how to use an attachment (and I don't mean an email one). I do find it highly unlikely though. I really do think I started out bisexual and slowly drifted towards being gay. I can't explain it. Maybe, I just accepted it. It's difficult for me to comprehend that part of my psyche. I'm sorry about being off-topic, but it seems like we all are to a certain extent. I can say that I would love to organize a Pride parade in which people got to see a more positive side of us. I think part of the problem is that the media wants only to show the freaks. Perhaps I need to actually go to one and find out for myself.

It's great to have you, Ben.

I prefer digital media as a general rule. The last CD I bought was the one with Ravel and Debussy. I do enjoy my classical. I love that song! Journey "Faithfully"

No, I have had it for a while. I like the song along with "Stupid Girls". Pink kicks ass! Aerosmith "What it Takes"
