Darn-it Carl. The next time you're down here let me know so I can take you to lunch or dinner. I live in Miami, carry a gun, and am not afraid to venture into Opa Locka. If you have time before leaving tomorrow afternoon let me know and we can meet-up for lunch. PM me and I'll give you my contact details.

I'll never totally understand parents. I could get an A on a report and they'd wanna know why I didn't get an A+. Go figure. I wish you good luck in dealing with the situation. At least you have some options. While the maid of honor is traditionally female, traditions are changing all the time. If your friends are OK with it, and you are too, then I say go for it. Maybe traditional terminology could be modified a bit so that there's a Best Man and a Man of Honor? How would you feel about it if you were the Man of Honor? How large is the monitor, who makes it, and how old is it? Was there a photo of it on Ebay? What kind of rating does the seller have? I've seen deal like this turn out fine and have also seen them turn out bad. I'll keep my fingers crossed that you get a good deal. ~gary.

I appreciate your perspective on this issue Graeme. I can understand why you're not disappointed in Niels for having deleted his photos. It's certainly his decision to make. I too think it's sad he felt the need to delete them. The details about why I feel the way I do are best left for the PM which I already sent to Niels.

I only asked you to post the photo of your face. You posted the other one all by yourself. Did you do that just to make people think you're really unattractive? If so it backfired big-time my friend. Just look at the positive reaction you got. Do you honestly think all your fellow GA members would lie to you? If they thought you were ugly they'd have just kept quiet. I'm sure you know the old adage: If you can't say something nice to someone then don't say anything at all. Ah, I just hope it's not too late to save you from yourself. ADDED: I am very disappointed in you for removing those photos Niels.

Niels' eyes are indeed amazing. I shall refrain from commenting on the cute part cause I feel weird doing that. He has absolutely no reason to have low self esteem. Please post the photo that shows off your eyes so well Niels!

The Best Man should have to carry them both over the threshold.

Yeah, Drewbie reminded me via PM that Graeme is always screwing-up the birthday notices. I went back and changed my happy birthday message to you.

I read the Wikipedia article about your medical condition. It's truly awful. You're to be admired for deal[ing] with it squarely.

If you wanna get technical here Steve, Ben is: anoverallniceguywhohangsaroundcliffs. But I'm not in the mood to get technical. I think the reference was in fact to Ben. When Joel does get exposed to you please take good quality pix.

I'm always confused when you post stuff like this without comment Nick. OK, so DP is now certified to be a partner in C-TPAT. Sodomy is punishable by death. They are highly discriminatory in terms of the foreign workers they import to do most of the work in the country. The workers are grossly underpaid. Their passports are held by their employers effectively making them slaves. Is this really a country we want to do business with? IMO the answer is an emphatic no!

Happy Birthday Greg. That darned Aussie always makes me thing I've missed someone's birthday. to you Graeme!

Sorry to get picky, but these are two of my best friends on GA and they are Promising Authors, not just Authors. Other than that I loved your summary.

I recall at one point Scar telling Dimitri not to blow-up NY. Not sure what significance there was to that. Steve, you're getting your stories confused. Besides, Jan is already dead in Tim's story. As usual I hate you and I love you CJ.

Eh, he thinks he's too bony to be handsome. I doubt we could even get him to take his shirt off in front of the camera. GA would do a lot better with photos of you and John!
