  2. Chapter 5 D.W.: Is blood really thicker than water as you humans like to say? In all my eons watching your realm I have seen that argument both validated and invalidated so many times that I cannot honestly say whether it is true or not. Is the family that disowns one of their children, and condemns them to the darkest pits of Hell, for being attracted to another person of their same gender the ones in the right? Or is it the stranger that comes out of the darkness and rescues that same d
  3. I am calling the Cliffhanger Police on you after that one. :pickaxe:
  4. There is a new site as of this week that is encouraging serious amateur authors to post and be known. It is run by the same people as http://www.jaygordonstories.com/ but is for other authors to post their work. The focus of this site is to steer away from the stories that are 90% sex and towards stories that have more substance to them. This site also allows readers to contact their favorite authors directly unlike some sites that are on the web like Nifty. For the authors that are hosted there the site also allows them to edit their stories on-site and in real time without removing the chapter from the site and re-posting, or you can even write their stories directly to the site without going through format conversions The new site is http://thestorycloset.org/ even though the site has only been open for a few days it is already fully operational and growing by the minute. Come join us at The Story Closet.
  5. Chapter 4 D.W.: We will now follow Brigit as she tells her tale of woe and how it made her stronger so she would be able to shoulder her burden of prophecy when her time comes “This is something I should have dealt with years ago, but didn't. My adopted father, Donald, doesn't even know about this. I think Angus might know about it, if he does he never said anything directly, so as far as I know the only person that knows about it is Pansy.” She stopped to take a drink from th
  6. they allow all of us pagans and wiccans in so why not through satanism in as well. who knows if you get involved in some of the debates that get started around here you might bring a perspective that others had not considered.
  7. Chapter 3 Keiran began his life story once they were all comfortable in the living room of his apartment, “There really isn't much to tell about my past. My full name is Keiran Lugh Taliesin Drake, I was born in '87 so I am a year older than you two, something that we have in common is that I have never met my parents either, I am also an orphan. I lived in an orphanage about three blocks from here until the 18th anniversary of the day that I was found there. I was awarded a partial scholarship
  8. Chapter 2: Truths Revealed “What is going on here?” Brian demanded when he saw his mother and father enter the pub behind Donald. His dad replied, “Son, the time has come for you to know the truth. Now remember, we never wanted to keep the truth from you, and we were planning on having the O'Maoileagain family over to supper tomorrow where we would have sat down afterward to tell you and Brigit all of this.” Then as if just seeing him, Randy looked over at Keiran sitting

  10. i have the perfect example of the supposedly 'unflappable institution of marriage' all of the following are hetero marriages: my mothers father: divorce once never remarried my mothers mother: exact number of marriages unknown 4+ my fathers parents: both married twice my mother:married twice my father: about to end his fourth marriage in less that 23 years brother: divorced once uncle:divorced twice cousin: divorced three times thus proving that hetero marriages are just as f-d up as any gay relationship could ever be

  17. This is a true one that my brother used when he was in junior high: "I can't turn in my homework because my cat chewed on it then shredded it with his claws." at which point he hands the teacher a sandwich bag containing the wet and shredded remains.
  18. it also sounds like the Haven Universe by Str8mayb http://www.storylover.us/Main_Site.php
  19. I have to agree with Phoenix on this. There have been some long series that i have fallen in love with and still go back to read on occasion, such as The Vampire Chronicles and the Witching Hour trilogy from Anne Rice, but on the other hand there is the problem of waiting forever and a day on a follow up book in some series.(I am still grinding my teeth waiting for the final book in the Eragon series) But overall I like the "loosely-tied-together universe" theory best such as the Colby stories by Tim Mead because you don't "have" to read all of them or in any real order to understand the story line of the current book.
  20. for the first two books of Our Unique Moon they are still up on Nifty: http://www.nifty.org/nifty/gay/sf-fantasy/blood-red-moon/ but i am still looking for book/ three/+ any help you guys can provide would be appreciated.
  21. Raijen I will give you an example that happened when I worked at W^ll-M^rt in Southern California. We had a black man on our crew who would disappear constantly from the unloading area where we worked, what he would do is since his girlfriend came into work later than we did he would clock back in after our lunch then stay in the breakroom for another hour during his girlfriends lunch. This guy was constantly accusing others of being racist when he couldn't get his way on something. After he had been caught and written up several times for the break issue one of the Asst managers finally had enough and fired him. The reason he was written up so many times instead of being fired sooner is that every time he would get caught and written up he would make some kind of statement to the effect of: your just writing me up because I am black aren't you. The day the Asst manager fired him I happened to be in the area working and heard him yell at the Asst manager (who was also black btw) "you are firing me because I am black and you are a Wannabe Cracker N*@#$r Hating Faggot Ass Son of a Bitch" he then tried to sue the store for racial discrimination and wrongful termination on racial grounds. I have ran into this same idealism in Alabama where I have encountered numerous times Black people declaring that because "I am white that my family obviously owned slaves" that I should be beholden to and payout of my pocket to the descendants of those slaves. These people that make this type of speech don't care that "my" family never owned slaves but they instead care about forcing me to fix the slights caused to their ancestors and make restitution to them now by way of their descendant. Now the question must be asked "Why should I, personally, have to pay for something that happened 100 years before i was even born and never involved my family either, at that time most of my family was either still in Europe or walking the Trail of Tears. The ultimate answer to your question: "If we all agree that racism is bad, why does it persist?" is Greed.
  22. Raijen I think you are looking at this from the wrong angle. You are trying to pin down something that has existed since the first humans noticed that "Bob" over there has red hair. I have split my life fairly evenly between Alabama and California, so i have seen things from both sides of the racial coin. To answer your question about what "benefits" are afforded by being Caucasian look at the South in general, as i am sure James Savik can attest, the main squabble there is STILL "Black vs. White" where an employer has to weigh the options of race as a major factor when offering a job to someone, he has to look at the black man and consider "if this guy gets pissed off because he doesn't like the brand of coffee in the break room (I have seen this happen personally) is he going to start running around hollering 'RACISM' then try to sue me when i refuse to buy the special blend that he likes?" So that employer is more likely to hire the white guy just to avoid the possibility of that kind of problem happening. On the flip side, if that same white guy were to go to California to try to get a job the issue is "Mexican or Other." The employer here looks at thing from the point of view that "If I hire one of the Mexicans then I can pay them the bare minimum wage, whereas this Other guy that is applying for the same job does not speak the common language of the other workers, and if I hire him then he will want to be paid a higher rate." So the decision for this employer is easy, hire the Mexican, that way everyone speaks the same language and none of them expect to be paid a decent wage so when the books are done at the end of the year his employee payments are low so that means that he has come out ahead of the Other company that did hire the Other applicant. The reason I bring up the employment in California is, even though the national average may show the Whites as the majority here in California the Hispanic is the majority. Even when there is a clear case of racism towards the Whites in California it is called "Reverse Discrimination" and thrown out the proverbial window with yesterdays trash. So the short answer to what "benefits" there are that is a matter of perspective based on which side of the majority line you stand on at that moment in time. As far as the Why of its existence I think Eon explained that best.
  23. My Scotts line is from the Lockheart family which was entrusted with the key to Robert the Bruce's heart casket when it was carried to the Holy Land. Here is the Wiki link about my line:http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Clan_Lockhart We are still trying to get access to the family archives in order to confirm the geneaology lines match up with our research but it is sealed and controlled by the Lockheart family in their private collections and they rarely give permission to anyone to use their records.
  24. I live in California, was born and raised in Alabama. I have traced my fathers direct line to England they came over to the US round about the year 1700. Prior to that i can trace the name back to 1399. The other branches on that side include French and Dane up to and including Prince Gottfried of Denmark who married Princess Gisela of Lorraine. Princess Gisela was the Great-Great-Granddaughter of the Holy Roman Emperor Charles Charlemagne whose ancestors were Kings of France, Dukes of the East Franks, and Kings of both the overall Franks and the West Franks going back to the year 15 AD approx. I know there is also a lot of Irish and Native American in that side of the family i just have not been able to pin down the where and when for those even though my grandmother is half and half (like several others on here we don't speak to each other for various reasons) My mothers family is still being researched all we know is that one of the branches is Scottish going back to dealings with Robert the Bruce as one of his most trusted generals. Beyond that all we know is that there is a meshing of Dutch, Irish, English and Native American. By the way Tipdin I do believe that a Holy Roman Emperor outranks a Scottish King sorry, mate.
