Wow. I'm touched. I feel like a regular all of a sudden. I know you're being ironic, though, and there's also irony in the fact that I've never really liked my (real) name.

OK, this isn't really...

Travees hasn't been around here since March. He hasn't posted anyway. It's probably best to start a new topic if you need help -- it will get noticed faster that way.

I repeat: Not. At least, not for me. Maybe it comes down to the fact that I'm a hopeless square, but I've just got no tendencies in that direction.

You're right -- he did. I didn't think of him when I read Drag's scenario, but it's absolutely true. It caused quite a commotion, and his ex-wife, the girl's adoptive mother, was absolutely beside...

Men do rule the world.

I'm not saying it should be that way; in fact, I think it's wrong. But it's the truth.

By the way, about the fake phone number thing, someone has set up a number for...

There's a Stephen King novel/movie called "Firestarter."

An 8 or 10-year old Drew Barrymore was the title character in the movie, so that one definitely strikes me as feminine.

My grandfather used to use the word "FAG" when playing Scrabble. Apparently it is a slang term for a cigarette.
