I much prefer cats... but we have a fish tank and the little one likes them... Maybe I just need to change the water more often then...

That's cause they are mutants... 
the last time we bought fish they ended up eating each other. The stupid kid that sold us them told us that it would be okay. Idiot. has anyone ever watched fish eat each other? It's pretty disturbing. And I have been inside my head, and I'm not disturbed by much...

yeah, fishes are kind of... well, mostly it's the aftermath, what with head floating around...
That's the part that creeps me out. Then I go to China, where when they serve it to you, they leave the head *on*, point it *at* you (if you're the guest of honor), and then look at you oddly when you *don't* eat the eyes and "cheeks."
ick

*shudder* Icky.
I heard something about this crazy form of sashimi that's served while the fish is still *alive*. Here, lemme see if I can find the linkie for you. It's scary and sick.

Um... no comment. (that's for Boston)
I would TRY the eyes, just to know what they tasted like.

I don't eat fish, in most shapes and forms. Occasionally I like a nice cod or catfish fillet on toast, but . . . it's got to be dead and well cooked before I'll touch it.
Like what? How mercilessly I tease poor Boston? I only do it because he's fun to torture. If he said no, I'd stop.
And, he's not a sheep today, nor ever, because in real life he's a vermicious gnid.
Effy, that's just too funny. I agree about the gunfire though. I can't type without something going in the background, but I also can't type with annoying parents reading over my shoulder. It's annoying when they stop me and go "you spelled that wrong" or "what the hell are you writing? That doesn't sound very good."
I hate writing sexual scenes with my family home. They're NOSEY!
Yeah, I don't recommend trying to edit/tweak your steamy scenes in a dance studio waiting room either...
That's great Laurie!
On a different note, I finished the second draft of Hazardous... it's only about 1k now. Please check it out if you can! I like the critiques, they feed me and make me live
Thanks!
*grumbles and mutters*
CBS bumped "The mentalist" which is a nice, smart show... for some hacked together thing on Michael Jackson.
This is why I hate network TV.
... oh well
*goes off to read Hinny's short and write some of his own stuff*

I figure I've tried enough odd things in my life that I can pass on the oddball items that make me go "ick."
Like live shrimp, for example. Or fish eyes and cheeks. Or chicken's feet.
All of which I am told are delicacies. But you know what? I've had brains. I've had tripe. I've had jellyfish and tongue and a whole host of other things...
And most of them failed to to live up to the hype. Not saying they weren't good, because I like all of the above (unlike, say sea urchin, or sea cucumber, which I did eat and promptly regretted) ... just that I don't feel the need to try something that wasn't meant to be eaten.

I'm adventurous though. I like to try things to know what they are and to make up my mind without interfering of other entities.
I was too... then I read your new short...
now I'm putting everything through a blender first.
I was going to quote something witty and pithy about "rules" but the only ones that came to mind were a tad cliche.
Seeing as google is my friend, I googled.
and got this one: “Any fool can make a rule, and any fool will mind it.”
Which I am quoting only to comment that, according to the website, it;s Henry David Thoreau, yet it sounds a lot more like Mr T.

ioooh...
also liked this one: “Majority rule only works if you're also considering individual rights. Because you can't have five wolves and one sheep voting on what to have for supper.”
