Danielle J told you about her Racoon , well my day stared at 7:20 AM when a deer jumped out in front a my car I hit it going about 50 MPH it bounced over my engine hood then slid about 30 or 40 feet and got up and ran away can't say as much for my car. The left front fender, headlight assemble, bumper has a rip and the engine hood is rippled so it cost $500.00 dollars as a deductable and the loss of the car for a few days.I am OK just a very fast heart beat.

New spot for posting stories

Taxonomy upgrade extras: 

Author: 

Hi folks. Joe of Joe Six-Pack fame here.

If you haven't seen it yet, I've put together a new tg fiction site called TG Storytime. The site is still in a low-profile beta mode, but I'd like to invite everyone here to give it a look, and I'd especially like the writers here to submit their work. It's not important if the work is new or old.

We're starting to gain some momentum, and every new story that's getting posted has been getting several hundred reads in a matter of hours.

This may be a bit off topic, but...

I couldn't let the opportunity pass to comment on the Skin Horse comic for Sunday 3/13. It is a wonderful homage to a great comic artist, Walt Kelly. Some of you will remember the Pogo comic strip in the papers.

Those who are not familiar with this true gem should find what you can and read it carefully. One of the other classic Pogo quotes is, "We have seen the enemy, and he is us."

Who could add to that?

I have been editing for BC/TS authors for some time now on a pro bono basis. I have been happy to do it and will continue it as a "Thank You" for the stories. Apparently, it has been well received, because I'm getting repeat business.
I would like to transform my skills into a profit making business (NOT AFFECTING THE AUTHORS ON THIS SITE). I already have a web site at write-it-right.com, and would appreciate any ideas any of you might have to generate business. The charges will be relatively low ($2-$3 per page) to clean up and improve writing for people who need help.

A bit confused Re U.S school system.

I am currently reading a most enjoyable series where the protagonist is in seventh grade.

As a Brit I have not grasped the age of this pupil (student?)

In Britain we start school at the age of five and attend "primary one. WE stay in primary school up to primary seven when at the age of twelve we move on to secondary school. (The big school) This is where we proceed through secondary one to secondary four where we leave at sixteen. There is an option to stay on for an extra two years i.e until the age of eighteen but it is not mandatory.

Some of you may remember that the 1998 Eurovision Song Contest (that's a television Spectacular where the TV companies in each country in Europe (and also neighbours like Turkey, Israel and so on) select a totally crap song and then all 32 or whatever have a 'gala' night to select a winner) was won by the Israeli entry, a song called 'Diva' sung by a performer called 'Dana International'. To be of relevance here on this site, it will come as no surprise that she is an MtF Transsexual.

Hello all :)

In my perusings I came across the site http://www.transformation.co.uk/en/home and wondered what other people thought about it? It looks like some of their products may be wonderful for the TG community. Artificial breasts, vaginas...etc. Looks like they may be of nice quality and would certainly be desirable. I don't know if the prices are reasonable as I don't shop for things like that.

An airline is opening up, and 4 of the latest recruits for cabin staff are TS!

The report is of course in German, and I don't have time right now to translate it all, but will do, probably tomorrow some time.

The airline chief is reported to be pleased and is wanting more TS employees.

Can anyone help me find this story? Some of the characters have a special implanted organ which allows them to shapeshift and modify their bodies. There's conspiracy, action, revenge. At one point the main character becomes a medusa-like tall creature with skin like stone. At yet another chapter the main character gets stuck as a mermaid-like creature. The main character starts out plotting revenge, becomes a villain, then becomes good again. I've been trying out various keywords but just can't find it. Thanks in advance!

The tailgating woman was furious and honked her horn, screaming in frustration, as she missed her chance to get through the intersection, dropping her cell phone and makeup.
As she was still in mid-rant, she heard a tap on her window and looked up into the face of a very serious police officer.
The officer ordered her to exit her car with her hands up.

It soon becomes apparent that both Shucihi and Yoshino are more than simply a sensitive boy and masculine girl, they both are transgendered. Together they decide to take the first steps toward becoming the people they want to be.

With all of the members and readers we have here, I thought I might inquire about something. A while back, my job revoked our permission to use a laptop or dvd player while working. We still have permission to read during down periods and on break. Being hard headed, and very cheap, I decided to do it the hard way. I located and purchased a like new IPAQ 1910, from back in 2002. I figured for 40.00 it would make things easier for me, and my buddy could buy a tank of gas. He gave me a 64 Mb card with it.

I've pointed a couple of people to the stories written by Wes Boyd, at http://www.spearfishlaketales.com (Spearfish Lake Tales), but the latest story has taken an interesting turn.

The story is called "The Girl In The Mirror", and is part of what he calls the Bradford Exiles series.

What's shocking about it? Well, he's hit chapter 2, and the character that's described is a M2F transsexual (intersexed). The time period is based upon the graduating class of 1988, with this being the 10 year reunion. (I graduated in 90, so I have no problem envisioning this)

"I'd like to buy a bra for my wife. "

"What type of bra?" asked the clerk.

"Type?" inquires the man, "There's more than one type?"

"Look around," said the saleslady, as she showed a sea of bras in every shape, size, color and material imaginable.

Supreme Court rejects appeal to force DC ballot measure against gay marriage

WASHINGTON (Associated Press) --
The Supreme Court has rejected an appeal from opponents of same-sex marriage who want to overturn the District of Columbia's gay marriage law.

The court did not comment Tuesday in turning away a challenge from a Maryland pastor and others who are trying to get a measure on the ballot to allow Washingtonians to vote on a measure that defines marriage as between a man and a woman.
