    IT'S A BOY!

    Have a cigar!
  3. One of the best SF series that I've read is called The War Against the Chtorr by David Gerrold. It was an interesting series about an ecological invasion of earth. It was an excellent series of three books. The bad part was that it wasn't finished. The fourth volume came out a decade later. Three more are promised. Now... I only read series that are finished.
  4. It's always good to hear from the Great and Powerful Myr
  5. < listen while reading We heard the rumors and saw the weird stories on the Internet. To be perfectly honest we thought that it was the same sort of run of the mill insanity that had some people believing in aliens or outlandish conspiracy theories. We would have been caught completely by surprise just like everyone else if we had not had a break. The summer before the Great Panic, none of us had even heard of a zombie outside of a horror movie until one literally drove into town. A pair of Vicksburg Police Officers were gassing up their cruiser at the Exxon just off of I-20 in Vicksburg when a man in a Volvo with Texas plates drove in and started filling up. The officers noticed that he was disheveled, nervous and looked like he hadn

  10. That's puts you way ahead of most of the site.
  11. A couple of my stories appropriate for the holiday: Remembering Joey Valhalla You can be home from a combat zone in 48 hours but it takes a lifetime to get the war out of your head.
  12. Cats are immune to the virus that cause zombies. They can sense a zombie from a mile away and will become agitated. Since the Rising, cats have become the must have pet. No telling how many survivors owe their lives to ferocious feline soldiers named Fluffy or Mr. Biscuits. In fact, cats really hate zombies. It must be something about the way they smell. Many cats will attack zombies and attempt to claw their eyes out. One of the funniest damn things that you will ever see is a zombie with a pissed off cat on his head. Cat are fast and agile. Zombies are slow and clumsy. It's a classic mismatch like a line-man with two broken legs trying to cover a wide-receiver. If the zombie has advanced decay, a cat can take its head completely off. < F-ing zombies piss me off. ________________________________________________ From an upcoming project that I have in development.
  13. I have no objections to sex scenes but I don't want every wet and messy detail. It is one of those instances where less is more. I would argue that it is more erotic to leave some of the details to the readers imagination.
  14. No cause of death has been released yet. An autopsy has been ordered and we'll probably see something posted later this week or early next.
  15. One of the core lessons that you will hear about writing is show don't tell. There's a time and place for sermons and most people don't read them.
  16. Slipknot Bassist Is Found Dead By DAVE ITZKOFF Source Link (NY Times) The police in Iowa said that they would have more information on the death of Paul Gray, the bassist and a co-founder of the heavy metal band Slipknot, after an autopsy on Tuesday, but that foul play was not immediately suspected, The Associated Press reported. Mr. Gray, 38, was found dead on Monday at a TownePlace Suites hotel in Johnston, Iowa, north of Des Moines. In the early 1990s he helped found Slipknot, the nihilistic if highly theatrical band whose members wear gruesome masks and refer to themselves by numbers and evocative nicknames (Mr. Gray went by No. 2 or
  17. People kept mis-underestimating Bush and he kept winning elections. Over the course of his political career, Bush(II) managed to beat such democratic notables as Ma Richards, Al Gore and John Kerry. When you take on a person in any kind of contest, you have to show a modicum of respect or you run the risk of looking arrogant. In sports, a dash of arrogance adds to the drama. In politics, it is pure poison. Although it takes confidence and ego to be President, people want to know that whoever they put in that chair will keep a level head and remember that it's NOT all about them. It's about the country.

  19. Mine: debating with people that are wrong, won't admit and imply that you are stupid because you won't accept their bullshit.
  20. I've never attempted suicide because if I did, that would be that. I have the know how to get it right the first time. I opted for a different plan. I would rather linger here and be a pain in the ass to those that were causing me misery.
  21. Because of the nature of boot camp- you are busy all the time with no time to yourself or no privacy and you are too exhausted to jerk off- most people are so horny when they are finally out that nothing is safe from being sodomized, screwed or otherwise spooed upon. Boot is just part of it. Lots of bases have districts with prostitutes and businesses which are geared towards making money off of the soldiers hormones. Subic Bay in the PI was epic about that. A great many old salts and jarheads took wives there or actually went native. Same deal in Okinawa. The Japanese are bitching about it but the whores just keep coming. Almost every base town has its dark side. It's not like they hide it. They want the guys to find it.
  22. To me he looks like he's a little kid (like hes 8 or something) and that makes a difference in how think and act toward him. When I see a little kid trying to make music, I'm inclined to encourage them. When I see a little kid take a spill or have an accident, I'm inclined to see if they are OK. I won't laugh at them- until they laugh first. I'm a lot gentler with kids than you might think considering how gruff I am with adults.

    >> In Slovakia, one of the smaller parties that is in government demanded that the Parade is canceled because people will show their genitals there That would be tragic. /s
  24. I don't like seeing little kids get hurt.
