Well, my Amanda Waller story has been delayed. I let Lilith have a peek at what I had written, and it needs a serious re-write. Ah, well.

No, it's not going live just yet, but I wanted to talk about it, so there! ;p

Anyway, here's where things stand right now:

For the last several days, I have noticed that BCTS is slow to completely load at times. Oh, it eventually does, but I just noticed the change. No complaint really. Are there current issues in the air or is it just this infestation of Ohio fall bugs. It reminds me of stories I have heard about Midges.

Much peace

Here is a very brief history of when seamed pantyhose was first introduced in the United States. Maybe people who leave comments about stories should do their research first. And yes they did have seamed pantyhose in 1961. The seamless pantyhose is what was first introduced with the introduction of the min-skirt. I know how to do my research. Does anyone else? Sorry Stanman and Gabi...but your comment that you left to my story So You Want To Be A Girl, Do You, was only partly right.

Well It's Tuesday now and I've just got down to reporting on my fun at Gabbycon.
Well they sure are a wild, freewheelin' funlovin crowd.

Transgender issues in the workplace: HRD’s newest challenge/opportunity
by Debra Davis (2009)

“The purpose of this article is to present insights from a transgender woman to HRD scholars and practitioners, along with all organizational members, to help them understand the myriad of considerations involved in this emergent workplace issue” (Davis, 2009, p. 110).

Well i'm home now after a long tiring trip home!

Finally, the dance is coming to an end. The caller has asked for a Circassian circle, and promised some polkas to round off the evening. I have one more chapter to write and Steph will have come to her destination. Episode 53 should be the final part of my story. Thank you all for your patience and kindness.

I am quite sure that some of you have doubts about my loyalties because I am Muslim. And, in light of the actions taken by a few pseudo Muslims, one would think that the rest of us Muslims would really pitch in solidly to rid the world of this vermin. I served during the Vietnam War, and the fact that I did not go "In Country" sometimes makes me feel like an interloper when I see myself honored alongside those who actually saw combat.

I was thinking this morning, and wondering why the ret-con stories are so popular, and why so many of us seem to love comic books. Well, I cant speak for anyone else, but for me, i have realized i have something in common with most super heroes, and thats the fact that I too, have a secret identity. Just like most heroes have to hide their true selves, I also have to keep my true self a secret. The difference is where most heroes don't want or plan to integrate their 2 sides, I hope someday that I will be able to take off my mask, and show my real self to the world.

Hi all

Well its sad to say that the 4th Gabycon has finished, the attendees gone their seperate ways (to bed at least) and we all look back on an excellent weekend hosted primarily by Angharad - cheers Ang!

Good moaning

We've risen this morning to a perfect blue sky and sunshine so our trip to the coast should be a nice one, more of that when we get back. For now though its a report on last evenings festivities.

Yep, it's magic.
They may call it 'the good old theory of relativity' but we know what it is, don't we?

Pure, plain, good'ol' magic folks, and knocking on our door no less.

Hello dwarf fans of the BC world!!

It's time to do some spelunking in some caves. We finally have the confrontation with Draknor. This is one of the longer chapters that I have written, so are the next two chapters. We get to find out why Ruald's and Draknor's plans didn't work over the next several chapters. This has been hinted at since the beginning in Chapter 1.

Have a great weekend everyone.

Rachel

Hi folks

Well i missed doing a blog last night as it was late when we finished but we are just between things right now so lets get you up to date.

Out from under my rock long enough to post this, which may be of interest to a few here. Sally Kerns, the state representative for Oklahoma House District 84, is perhaps best known for her statement last year that homosexuality is a bigger threat to the U.S. than terrorism. In her quest for reelection she is being opposed by Democratic candidate Brittany Novotny. Ms Novotny is TG, which has upset Kerns and her supporters no end. The latest attack can be seen on Ms Novotny's website: http://brittany4hd84.com/

Best of luck to Ms Novotny, I wish I could vote for her.

Tamara Drewe has just been released as a film but the story originally appeared weekly as a graphic novel in the Guardian. The artist is the wonderful Posy Symmonds. Knowing that there is a following for well-drawn strips (and this is one) I thought people here might appreciate a look at the original before seeing the film. The film got an excellent review in today's Guardian but perhaps they're a bit biassed :)

I've always had very eclectic tastes in music, and the first song I can remember is "The Green Door" circa '56. For reasons I don't understand, I really like Handel, Wagner, Bach, and some of those other dead guys too. These days, my favorites are Gaga, Ka$ira, Kati Perry, and the like. The other day, I listened to AC DC do an almost perfect rendition of Fir Elise; Wow!
