I just saw someone on here who might be an author of a certain "Great Shift" story. This one references Heinlein. If this is the same author where's the sequel?! I beg you, please finish it you "English Rose" sir. ;-)

Well, Oklahoma is in the middle of a severe drought, we've had less rain for the year than we normally get just in March. Grass fires are a daily occurrence across the state. If we don't get a lot of rain soon, there will be no wheat or hay to harvest. People had better get ready to pay much more for food as well as gasoline. On the bright side, we here in Oklahoma do have the lowest gas prices in the country. :)

So far as I know, this is not some April Fool joke. The date on the story is 3/31/11.
Basically, a hen became a sort-of rooster, crowing, strutting and changing comb and wattle and quit laying eggs, after a molt. Veternary suggests reason as though it is not unusual.

First, thank you to all who responded to my earlier blog. Not only were there far more well-wishers than I expected, there were some from people I never would have expected. (There were also a couple of people who were notable by their absence, but that's all I'll say about that.)

I usually don't post much on my blog here. But like the title says I'm feeling disheartened and honestly once again like way too many people do It's about the comments. I've looked for the flavors of whatever seems to be the choice of the week/month and all I see is a reduction of comments from a lot of the stories that are up right now.

Nice story about high school transgendered junior allowed to attend prom as her girlself. Sounds like she had a great time.

I saw a nice car today. It had lovely curves, and a very slight hint of chunkiness. I got the impression that the chunkiness was the result of a severe manufacturing defect, that had been mostly corrected.

...And the last three letters on the registration plate? = )

Before shutting down here, I decided to upgrade to the Firefox 4. That was an hour and a half ago. Mozilla really screwed the pooch this time! Lots of cosmetic crap that wasn't necessary and really screws up the layout. Several of my most used apps won't work with FF4 It took me less than 5 minutes to decide to go back to the previous version. That's when the fun begin. Uninstalling FF4 did not roll back to the previous version, and no matter what version I tried to download I always ended up with FF4 again.

Back in 3/2010 I posted, and offered, the wonderful story Midnight Downloads by Wendy J. You can find that in my blog history. Since it has been a week over a year, I thought I would again offer it to anyone interested in reading this one. It can still be found in a few places. The copies I have are her edited files in chapter 1-30. And she had also released a few more chapters. I have through 50. The later chapters are incomplete, and a couple are just working ideas. Email if you are interested. I have sent this to probably 100 people over the years.

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. Oh and 1 of my dogs was so frightened he threw up. What a way to start St Patricks day-----------HUGS and KISSES RICHIE2 P.S.

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?

No, the title is not a spelling mistake but an apt one (at least I thought it was) for an interesting news article I came accross

http://uk.news.yahoo.com/21/20110306/tuk-padded-bras-for-sex...

I will let others make up their on minds regarding the story.

Just to let you all know that a visit to my site (maddybell.com)will let you rerad a new chapter in Angharads Fanfic Whatever Next.

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.
