Hey there, Shadow. You really know how to start out big, don't you? I think there are probably a few guys here who will be vividly imagining what you might look like and there will probably be a few others here who will think the worst of you before getting to know you. I, for one, appreciate your honesty. So welcome to JU. I hope you enjoy it here.
Being as I'm slim and ripped (:LOL:) and that I live in a generally hot climate, I can get away with wearing tank tops (I am guessing these are what we call singlets). These are almost a prerequisite in our climate. I don't really have a problem with people I don't know wearing whatever they want to wear. If they look ridiculous, I often wonder why their friends or family don't say anything to them.
Hey Donna, A very merry Christmas to you and yours from me and mine :)
Joe, Well, they don't call it the silly season for nothing. I'm on holidays now and while I have been working at some music, I've mainly been enjoying kicking back and relaxing. As you say, though, finding out about our music doing good things is a great Christmas present indeed. Hope your wife had a wonderful 50th birthday. Did you do anything special for her?

Very clever... Am looking forward to part 2.
Tova, You know, I am thinking along the same line as you, but thanks for your idea anyway. Personally, I would like to put up a hard wall of some sort but the ivy option is a really good one. [quote]Just when you decide to move on, someon
:LOL: Classic, mate. You've made me laugh out loud twice today. Thanks :)

[quote]I'd like to go to your place for Christmas![/quote] You'd be more than welcome, too. :) I hope you enjoy your brother's visit. While we're looking forward to a quiet time, it is always nice to be around family at this time of the year. One of my brothers and his family will be coming to stay with us between Christmas and New Year, which will be fun.

I'm going to use your advice when developing female characters in the future. Thanks very much. Now, to a continuity issue: the girl's name is Kyla, not Kyna. Kyla is a name I have always liked, after meeting a lovely lady called Kyla many years ago. I'd forgotten all about it but it leapt at me when I started writing this character. Weird how the brain does that, isn't it?
Hey Zoo, thanks for the comments, mate. I don't mind my internal diaglogues, for the most part, as these are a great way for me to develop ideas for writing. But the cooking show dialogues are just weird, I think. [quote]What a coincidenc

Amy, so good to see you around. I've been having some modem issues which kept me quiet for a while but now it is fixed and I'm hoping to be a little more regular. Like your work, my work has lots of restrictions for different sites. For some reason, though, JU isn't one of them, thankfully. And at least I can go to news sites if I want. I watched The Dark Knight again this past weekend. I love the movie but know what you mean about it being somewha
1. Getting married on a beach just down the road from where my soon-to-be wife and I were living at the time - we walked, hand in hand to our wedding with a procession of friends behind us. 2. Swam with, and hand-fed, a pod of dolphins. 3. Played in a support band on the bill of one of my favourite American bands - Pavement. 4. Snorkelled on the Great Barrier Reef. 5. Spent a wonderful day at a bird sanctuary with my wife. 6. Getting tatt
[quote]I do think its kinda interesting how I as a woman, wrote for a male and you as a man wrote for the woman. That's one thing I love about writing, the exploration.[/quote] Hmm, while unintentional, I too find it interesting. I don't often write from a female perspective. How'd I do?
Ah, who cares about features and comments and such. Life is not a competition. Those of us who do read you regularly love what you say and keep coming back for that reason alone. I always think it better to do something you love than to do something you think others will love. At the very least, you're pleasing yourself.
Tova, Don't mean to be a party-pooper but I'm not going to add anything more to this. I'm trying to limit my writing at the moment to working on the story I would like to complete as a novel. It seems as though if I use my creativity elsewhere (such as with fun exercises like this) then I run out of juice for doing anything with my own pieces. I'm happy to pass Kyla, Spencer and the my part of the storyline off to anyone else who would like to run with it. I'm
Good luck with it all, mate. Hope you hit the books and get through the exams okay. Man, I remember how much I hated exams way back when. Thankfully, I don't have to do anything like that now. I'd probably fail for sure.
Hmm, I know I've tried them but it was years ago. Can't really remember what they taste like, though. Another interesting little dialogue, mate. You're certainly pumping them out. Good to see.
I love these dialogues, mate. They always put a smile on my dial. Incidentally, I think I'm nuts too. The good thing is I know I'm not alone. [e digicons]:grin:[/e]
Mason, I'm so sorry for your loss. My sincerest condolences, mate.
:LOL: My personal favourite: [quote]"Got Unhappy STD News? Break It With an E-Card"--headline, CNN.com, Oct. 21 Hey buddy, how is your day? Sorry, but I have something to say.

He was surprisingly strong, for one so thin. She had tried to extricate herself from Early’s car but was overcome with grogginess. Mr Twain leant in the car and picked her up like she was a doll, like she weighed nothing.
