I wan't a Top! But, is there no where closer than traveling to the equatorial regions?

See that would be Great!!! I like audio books. I tend to get migraine from reading to long and I just cant put down a good book I've sat for 24 or more hours reading before. so I often will get "Unabridged" Audio books, I have all the Harry Potter Series and With say Jim Dale is an awesome voice talent. I also have the Twilight series, Inheritance series (Eragon, Eldest, Brisingr), Lord of the rings. and have borrowed others from the library. I would not recommend an audiobook with a poor reader as if they drone on the book is not enjoyable. But if they are an animated reader it can be quite enjoyable. I also often will use good audiobooks that i have enjoyed and have already fully listened to to relax and go to sleep to.

Who knew inanimate objects could garner sympathy with a few verses of beautiful words.

LOL, If that isn't straight to the point. Yes, I agree. He deffinatly dose not appear to hold much stock in traditional dating anymore. Perhaps he has been burned or something it seems me to he has decided to simply state what he wants and list a list of benefits to the arrangement. It is curious that he turned what appears to be a personal ad into a Job listing. Perhaps he is a lonely old sod who believes he can hire a boyfriend. That is a new twist having interviews for a mate. IDK, Demanding or just specific about what he wants? Perhaps he just doesn't have allot of time for games. But did he mean, Drug testing or HIV/STD Testing? I'm also sure he would like sex, I get the sense he is covering his bases so it is clear he is not paying for the sex, If it should happen. Clearly if he wants to share his bed he is searching for intimacy the fact he offers a spare bedroom tells me he would settle for a friend. This person seem to be just a very lonely individual. Yes, I get the sense he has been burned, clearly conventional dating has not worked for him and he has elected to try something bold, if not fool hardy. If this kind of thing worked come on I'm sure a few of us would try it. I wouldn't pay for it, personally, nor could I afford to support someone else, but I have been lonely myself from time to time and wish there was a more direct way to find someone. I wish him luck.

Well he definatly tells you what he wants. And who says you can't but love. lol

Found this on craigslist and I am oddly curious. Tell me does this seem a bit of and odd approch to love? http://milwaukee.cra...1754981346.html

I keep a journal, and do a lot of writing much of it I never publish/post as I write it for only me.

Because while I can complain and vent in abstract. The facts of the case fall under privileged or confidentiality that goes hand in hand with a crisis center if we violate that trust people won't come to us and there are many more we can help.

That is because Christianity is years behind P.E.T.A.

I want to know what happens to someone who publishes a work that is on nifty. If I publish for profit at some point I don't want to have to write nifty another novel to get them to release my work. That is unreasonable. (The unlimited licensee in perpetuity is the problem.) But I can't see that is is legal by copyright laws, any lawyers out there?

Why are some parents and school kids so cruel? Why are some Christians so Unchristian like. I hate it when I lose a kid ... This world is so Cruel. We lost a 14 y/o Crisis Center client this week who committed suicide, rather then continue to be beaten up at school, told he was garbage by his parents, and told that god hated him by his minister. He was one of the few people that called us using a real name and yesterday his name appeared in the obituaries he had been calling a couple times a week for the last couple months and he always seemed to be doing better after the call then before. He was just a poor kid that need to know some one cared. I guess if your told your trash enough and that god hates your eventually you begin to believe it. No one should be allowed to think they are disposable. No one should have the people that are supposed to love them through them away. I swear some of these people should be glad I can't get my hands on them. This has been the beginning of a lousy week.

This was most touching, and it illustrates many important truths. Sadly suicide was not the answer and that 4 y/o will likely grow up to blame himself for his fathers death. Just as his father blamed himself for his rage and the damage he caused. The child still needed and loved his father. But it is just as important to learn that "things" are never so important that "people" should be hurt for them. Those scratches would be easily fixed but the boys hand couldn't be, nor should we ever hit someone with an object. Though one wonders why he was polishing his car with a wrench?

I liked this. Unfortunately, I see this is art imitating life far to often.

Two Words... Damb Right!

I am honestly starting to get the sense that home schooling is the best bet. The overwhelming cruelty in this world is really starting to get out of hand. I May be having a bad week, A Crisis Center, client submitted to suicide this week. I alway take it hard when we lose one of our kids. but a 14 y/o boy bullied by his peers, his parents and his church is enough to make me feel very mutinous and it really hurts my faith in god, that he allows people to act like idiots in his name. I have really began to lose all faith in humanity.

Some people don't get it at the high school level Esp. It is not just about the championship. The competition is hard for these boys and girls your win your teams championship and that can mean important scholarships for them, you cost your team it's championship and it can quite literally cost you your potential future. For a coach to not consider these consequences is inexcusable, to call foul on a girl who obviously is a better athlete then your team, over an obscure rule and a piece of string is the most ridiculous excuse for gamesmanship following the letter of regulations blindly is just as stupid and breaking them willfully. To also look at the spirit of the rule not just follow them blindly is also important. Metal jewelry can cause injury in sports as such it is logical to make wearing jewelry a violation of sports regulations but such rules have such vague wording the spirit of the rule and its intent at preserving safety and the carrying out of the rule often are not alway fair and balanced the risk involved from a string friendship bracelet is negligible it is not like she was wearing a diamond tennis bracelet. This while strictly within the letter of the law is a extreme abuse of power and spit in the face of true sportsmanship.

I Did not read this chapter as it has been removed. However Horrible things do happen in american schools. I know of atleast one case where a boy that was gay was brutilly beaten and raped by members of the high schools football team. It was quite the scandle and the boy later commited suiside. Sadly even in America bad things happen, and we as writers gain nothing only telling pretty stories. The true darkness in life needs to be explored too. I hope you put the chapter back up, as I feel there are things to learn from the darker side of humanity including compassion and understanding. I would add a chapter Warning for the squemish. If you do not feel you can keep it as it is then I hope you can find a way to salvage the story and continue. Either way I will continue to read it! Quote from my Review- "I must confess that I am not one of the people affected by the chapter in question, as I have only read to chapter 5, But as a writer and a reader of lititure and as is the culture of the times. I hope you don't let the set back detract you form continuing the stories. It is always possible to change the offending passage and contine you may have lost a few readers along the way who have read the offending passage how ever those of us who havent will not be the wiser and the will be able to continue with you along the journey. And while you can't unring a bell you can learn from the experiance and carry on you can also hope that some of those people who may have been shocked and offended may be forgiving and return to read again. And sometimes shock is enouph to make us read on. don't be fooled into thinking you lost all your readers. I will continue to read this story If you continue to write it. I am sure others will as well. "

OMG, OMG, OMG Ok Im Worse than a School Girl but i am so in love and ineed to shout it from the Rafters. Drew Told me today just a bit ago that he want to spend the rest of our lives together and im mean im like just, WOW WOW WOW!!! Im Exctatic and Want to cry all at once and I just so Happy. God Im in LOVE!!!

Aww, Thanks guys for the support and thanks for listening to all my rambelings these last few weeks. It has helped alot as me and drew worked through our fears especially when Drew took a break to clear his head and I felt so alone and lost. It really helped to come here and share.

**Update** God Im in LOVE!!! OMG - Drew came over last night, We Made Love again for only the 2nd time, and then he held me all night, My god it felt so right. Like all was right in the world and I never felt more at peace. We have talked about him moving in when his lease is up next month. Im so excited but a little scared, We both 28 have been best freinds, since the 4th grade went to the same university and everything we have even lived togeter before a few times as roomates but, This is the first time were going to be lovers and I am as excited as hell but still a little scared. EEeee! Wish Us Luck.

Ok so far it is a interesting story but it just scares me. I am so lucky that dose not mirror my and Drew's relationship. for the most part we have both been happy. Plus I find my self feeling so bad for sam as he seems to be misrable much more often than he allows himself to be happy. Granted I'm only to chapter 21. But seeing as it is an auto-biographical story, I can't imagine being misrable most of my life and then dying young, It makes me sad, just reading it, and i feel bad for "Chris" and "Brian" but espessally "Sam".

Has anyone Had Any Sucsess with romantic relationships with best friends, Or am I asking for trouble?

Thanks for the support, TR. Our Friendship is pretty well back on track actually. It is just a question if our friendship will grow into something more like a relationship, "or if we are even brave enouph to try to be more for each other" as it seems we do both love each other it is just wer're afraid to ruin what we have now.

Another Update, And now im confused, more than ever. Well Drew and I are doing pretty well now as best friends again were pretty well unsepreable again. Last night though he finally admitted to me that he "Loves me too!!" And I think he ment "Like That" But that he dose not know what to do with that, he says that relationships never work for him and he dosn't want to lose me or what we have. So it is kinda a bittersweet revelation, I seems we may both be in love with eachother but to paralized by fear to move past keeping the status quo. I told him he knows how i feel and that i will always care about him but for now i would let him choose where things go, just as long as i don't lose my best friend again as im not sure i could handle that. He said he needed time to think because he was scared by what he was feeling. and that i deserved to know how he felt even if he could not bring himself to act on it that it was not me he was running away from. So, I guess I'm not sure how I feel. I would still like to try a relationship, but at the sametime i don't want to lose what we have, he is my best friend and soal mate and he can be that with out a relationship if need be. So im back to being confused, but a bit happyer these days. Even if i am missing the phenominal sex. lol
