Alright, for various reasons I have been a bit slow preparing the next section of "Princess For Hire" for posting, so here's the scoop. Would you rather:

A) have a short posting (two chapters) today, with another short short (single chapter) within the next two days? Or

B) wait until tomorrow and get all three chapters, with a normal update on Sunday as well?

Five Love Stories en Brochette - Update

I spent some time this morning reading Tips and being left with the desire to read the entire trilogy. I had never looked at my postings the way other readers at this site might find them. I must say I am very pleased with the way the behind the scenes editors/administrators have put everything together. I opened up Five Love Stories en Brochette when I realized I hadn't posted a correction to the epilog. Several readers took exception to what happened to one of the characters, and I realized there was no reason to have done what I did. That is now fixed.

The World Cup

Soccer can be a cruel game. Many times the score isn't indicative of which team played the best.

For a game that probably lacks in significance you'd think the USA won the most vital contest of the year 1-1. I coached youth soccer long enough to have four of my children play for me. I've experienced my share of ties and know they're bittersweet for both sides, even in under the best circumstances.

This is the most off the wall story

You got to love Florida

*****

ISLAMORADA, Fla. — Sheriff’s dispatchers didn’t know what the problem was when they got a frantic 911 call at 1:20 a.m. All the caller could do is yell his address and tell them he was “crushed.”

According to the Monroe County Sheriff’s Office, deputies rushed to the scene, a residence at the 88-mile marker of U.S. 1.

When they got inside, they found the man who’d apparently fallen asleep in his recliner.

He was abruptly awakened when the head of a water buffalo that had been hanging on the wall next to him fell onto his lap.

According to Deputy Don Dalton, the head was so heavy the man couldn’t move, but his cell phone was close enough to his hand that he was able to call for help.

*****

Call this delayed karma. The water buffalo was shot a decade ago and was given to its present owner.

Being raised by a same-sex couple is no hindrance to healthy psychological development, researchers say as the first generation of children conceived by lesbians through donor insemination is coming of age.

In fact, lesbian mothers rated their 17-year-olds higher in social and academic skills, and lower in rule-breaking and aggression, than did mothers of teenagers who also had a father.

Any fans of Japanese graphic culture who are familiar with this genre of entertainment, feel free to fill us in on the background and such!

One More Week

Well folks, I'm just here to tell you that in just over a week, Penny and I will be packed into my little Peugeot and cruising down the boulevards of La Belle France - hopefully with the roof down - on our househunting camping trip.

We're really excited as we are going to be seeing about ten houses, three of which we are very keen on. The rest would be nice, but may need too much work to be within our grasp. The three we do like are actually habitable, one of which is more than habitable, it's perfect.

Oh well, we'll have to wait and see, won't we?

There are times when we all would prefer not to be too noticeable when out in public. For all those who believe they are too tall to pass, don’t despair.

This young model is six foot eight inches tall, seven foot in her heels

Love to all

Good news. I'm halfway through the rewrite of Assassin part three. I will be sending it off to my editor in the next few days and hopefully I'll have it posted next week. Sorry for the long delay in posting it, but this part is quite long. Thanks for your patience, Arecee

So, I have been busy getting Soldier Boy ready to send to an Agent. That should be nice. The problem there is, since I am doing that I am not really writing as much stuff. So there many be a severe lull between postings, perhaps worse than now.

However, because you have been so nice, let me post the synopsis of the story. I am hoping that I can get that published and make some money. Enjoy.

Guinness *IS* good for you!

Well, it's good for dogs at least!

http://news.bbc.co.uk/1/hi/health/3266819.stm

The Wisconsin team tested the health-giving properties of stout against lager by giving it to dogs who had narrowed arteries similar to those in heart disease.

They found that those given the Guinness had reduced clotting activity in their blood, but not those given lager.

So next time you go to the pub, order a pint of the black stuff for your pooch! :)

(Never mind the strange things some scientists choose to research - and the creatures they use in their research...)

One of our Authors has taken me by the hand and led me to a place on this site that I did not know exists. It is indeed a very pleasant surprise to find a spot in the "Add Stories" um thingie, that says TG Universes and series.

Would it be posible to have a tab that would take us to those Universes so that we might read the the stories?

Much Peace.

The Sparkle weekend Manchester 9th, 10th 11th July

It's just struck me that I haven't told anybody on BCTD that I'm going to The Sparkle Weekend in Manchester's gay village in the UK.
I'm staying at 'The place hotel', Friday and Saturday nights for the weekend 9th, 10th , 11th July.
Is anybody else going.
Lot's going on.
I'd love to meet some big closet readers or writers up there.

Looking forward to some others being there.

Martina's Story 9

Well, 9 is posted and it took sweat not ink. Sorry about the bile that threads its way through the chapter 9 like poison but I had to say it! Something of a rant; sorry everybody.

10 is ready for posting but until I get through 11, I cant post 10 unless there's some re-writing to do to maintain plot and continuity. (At the moment, I think I'm sometimes losing the plot!)

I'm only just keeping up with this story at the moment, been on a bit of a downer these past few days.

See the viputrative diatribe I posted as a comment on dear Drea's story 'Becoming whole 2'.

J-uu-ss--tt what we need! RIGHT

It seems that the nuttso that tried to confess to the JonBenet murder some years ago has been cyber stalking a young woman he knew when he was a substitute teacher and she was 9 years old. He was cleared of having anything to do with JonBenet's death through DNA evidence, but since then he is alleged to be engaged in stalking at least this other girl. In the words of the InfoMercial, "But wait, there's more...." It seems that he has transitioned and is now legally female as well, and is still stalking the girl. She says he did it so he could get closer to women and girls.
