“Not dead yet!”

First time I met Lewis, we were still talking, fifteen hours later.

Twenty-one years later...

Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.

I think what bugs me is memories of previous experiences - when after one date the woman tells me she's not interested, and I was thinking, "But how could you know after only one date?"

I think I'm just wired a little differently than most people....

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.

I'm tickled that its the Black folks who DON'T have neanderthal DNA

I bet the race mixing has taken care of much of that in America.

I had that happen once! OK, it was more like five hours, but still....

Sadly, this was the summer before I transferred from UW-Stevens Point to UW-Madison....

Sometimes after one encounter I don't have any interest in knowing anything else about the person. There's not enough synergy to make the push and pull worth it.

Sometimes after one encounter (or during the same) I want to slam them against the wall and do naughty things to them.

Sometimes during the first encounter I think I don't want the encounter to stop.

And sometimes I don't mind the idea of more, even if I don't crave it.

It really varies--and I don't have to dislike someone to not be interested. Just that they don't quirk my eyebrows at all.

ita, that all makes sense. Just wish I had that understanding years ago.

We won’t stop until everyone is gay.

Yeah, exactly.

Greece's financial crisis threatens to take down all of Western civilization - a civilization they themselves founded. A rather tragic irony - which is something they also invented. - Jon Stewart

Likely as not. Still tough on your average racist. Won't anyone think of the racists?

Bob's learned to live with tragedy, but he knows that this tragedy is one that won't ever leave him or get better.

Won't anyone think of the racists?

I try very, very hard not to.

Sadly, they make it impossible.
