I just wanted to formally announce my semi-permanent presence (ooh! alliteration!) in this forum. I really don't expect anyone to be reading this for I only made this post so I could click on it and look at my cool picture underneath my name. If there is somebody here, reading these words then I'd have to say "what the heck are you reading THIS for? There are far more interesting things in this forum - let alone this site - that you could be reading instead! What's WRONG with you, huh?" Wheeeee! See ya around!

Why semi-permanent? Well, I'm certainly not going to be here forever, now am I? Also, you mean to tell me that you never followed that link in the old version of the site - the one included in the story shelf that lead to the song by a musical group called "sigur-ros?" Anyway, they have one song that goes by that title - literaly "good weather for airstrikes" though you've got me as to why - and it is accompanied by a music video, which is most interesting. If you'd like to take a look at it you can go here: http://www.sigur-ros.co.uk/media/dldvideo.html

Or, rather, you can copy that textual version of a website, paste it into your address window thingamajig, and hit "go."

Whatever floats your boat. Or duck.

Whatever.

Yeah, so that's about it.

Another hello to the new person! And thanks for reminding us about that awesome music video...now I'll have to go look at it again...

But that won't stop me from reading your posts...I only don't read the posts of people I don't like, and what's not to like with a happy friendly new person? So I join Girl Mis and say...so there!

Have a nice day!Cool

Wow! What a great place! Everyone knows your name (hmmm. wonder why?) and nobody's afraid to come up to a new person, shake his or her hand and say "so there." It's like I'm back home. (sniff.)

Welcome aboard the board, er, right.....hehehe.

Sorry, I've been in an ironic mood lately.

All joking aside, I've been follwing your story and I kinda admit to being drawn in by the lack of details...you just can't help but wonder what's really going on, and it seems the even Justin is having trouble figuring out how things are and how they are supposed to be. Don't get me wrong, I like that hook, it really works, and I'm looking forward to seeing exactly what is going on there. Kinda gives it an eerie quality. Not quite edge of your seat, but leaning forward for a closer look kinda thing.

Anyhow, glad to have you on, glad to have another author about, and hope you have fun chatting here.



It's not the wolf you see you should fear, but all the ones he howls with. Don't be afraid of the song, but don't piss off the choir.
THANKS, D'ART!  [message #15918 is a reply to message #15885] Fri, 03 October 2003 18:54 Go to previous message

I don't know if I've mentioned this but I've never really written in that style before and I was a bit apprehensive about how people would receive it. Okay I lied - I was really nervous; I'm kinda' self conscious that way. Anyway, I'm glad you're enjoying it - I certainly am - and I can't describe how great it made me feel (good, perhaps?) getting a compliment from the author of "Educating Max," which I thought kicked serious butt, seriously.

So, thanks.
