Speaking English isn't an excuse not to learn other languages. Actually, I think Americans are very behind in comparison to other countries because we adopted the "everyone speaks English anyway" philosophy. I'm telling you, that's a lie. Even in America you run into plenty of people who...

Someone once gave me a music box just like the one in Phantom of the Opera, and I'd have to say it was the best present I've recieved. What's cooler--pointy weapons (swords and knives) or ones that shoot (guns)?

I like it. I know I've told you this before, but I normally can't stand non-rhyming poetry, though I rather enjoy yours. I especially like the title--I Will Not Weep. I don't know why, maybe because it sounds so despairing in itself. I can almost see someone on the verge of tears forcing...

The Happy Place is the border between La La Land and the Real World, and I make many visits there on my way between dimensions. FYI, anyone who'se reading this: The Happy Place is what a friend of mine and Vespertilio's calls the loony bin. I'll take Escape the Straightjacket over Knock...

I must confess that your poems make me smile. But for all the wrong reasons. http://barbie.everythinggirl.com/ Here! Think of it as a dating site to help you find the brainless moron of a girl who will suit you. (She'd have to be pretty brainless to date you after seeing you write...

XD. The story is wonderful. I know you're the chimp; can I be the hyena? I do have a pretty annoying laugh! EDIT: Just to make sure this is crystal clear, I do not in any way, shape, or form, plan on eating manuscriptx. O_o That would be so wrong for so many different reasons that I...

I'm really, truly impressed at the wide range of languages mentioned here. A couple I've never even heard of. Perhaps because I'm a stupid American. LOL It reminds me of a joke my Spanish teacher once told me. She asked me what you called a person who spoke two languages. I said...

2%, but will drink 1% or skim if necessary and without a word of complaint. Angels or demons? (This is not for Vespertilio; his reply would be too obvious! ;) )

Looks like that wasn't successful (rubbing it in msx's face, that is), but I wouldn't work too hard to impress someone that low on the food chain. It's not even that he's not a known writer--I'm not either, after all--it's just that he seems to think he's so special in comparison to everyone...

LOL. Never seen them paste that at the top of anything, Fantasy Moon. If you can't afford manga, you might want to sit down at Border's and just read if you have enough time. That's usually what I do--got through the entire Hellsing series that way, and most of the Sandman, although that's...

Laurell K. Hamilton's Anita Blake series is excellent. Series starts with Guilty Pleasures and the last book was Danse Macabre.

This discussion is getting scary fast. LOL

Thank you, Baddie! Very cool! I think it will take a while for me to get used to that title, but it sounds very interesting.

...which seperates you how from every other man on the planet? :confused:

XD. Beautiful. Last time I checked, manuscriptx, you were unemployed, not an expert on the publishing industry. So I don't know what gives you the idea that you can declare yourself better than John, who is actually published, when you can't even get yourself a job flipping burgers at...

I have one cat who likes to sit on my lap and purr while I read. I like this much, as her fur is very fluffy and soft and I like to pet her while I'm reading. Unfortunately, I am a very figety person, and sometimes when I shift, she decides to get up and stretch right in front of the page I'm...

LOL. I've read DaVinci Code, and I'm one of those who liked it. Not on my favorite book list by any means, but it was enjoyable and kept me entertained. Perhaps that would work, unless I got someone who ranted about every single historical detail that the author got wrong. That bores me so...

I agree. I think the only reason some of it hasn't been released in theaters is fear of parents misunderstanding, taking their children to see "a fun cartoon" called "Hellsing: the Movie", and the entire family walking out thoroughly traumatized. Most anime isn't really for kids, or even...

Nice try at a clever pun. If I were you, I'd be nice to Stewart. I'm pretty sure he has the power to kick you off, or can you not read the words "senior moderator" beneath his name? And I must say that Stewart is right. Not every person who--accidentally or intentionally--clicks into one...

Yep, I live in the US, but my identity is secure enough that I'm not too worried about it. Beergood, you made me laugh so hard with the post about reading habits. Just thought I should let you know that. Going to check the latest posts on Eye of the Eye...if I feel I have anything to say...
