The SCOURIES reader – for both fans and serious scholars…

[Sandy_Fox]

Nice button, Dani but...

Naughty but nice?

I read naughty, but what happened to nice?

Why do you bother, Dani? Why do you let him under your skin?

He's probably sitting in his Barca-lounger laughing at you spinning around.

Ignore him.

By the way, you have enough credits and enough successes that you should beat him at his own game and start your own thread. Surely, you have the fan base to support such a thread. There, you could post your reviews and even post some excepts to your books.

You could even invite celebrities to make a post to your thread.

I've been trying to get Oprah to post to one of my stories, but she doesn't want her public to know that she reads my stuff. I think her lesbian lover, Gayle King has made a few posts, though.

When you make the posts that you have made to Scouries thread, you're only hurting yourself.

I'll tell you what. I'll start a thread and you can post to that and forget about posting to Scouries thread.

Now, take a breath and relax.

C'mon, I'll buy you a cup of coffee.

Wow! Somebody talking sense on this thread? Who'd ever have guessed!

Hey, Ace, did you receive a PM from a guy looking for an editor? He sent me an e-mail asking if I'd edit his stories. I know, I laughed, too. I told him that I was the worst editor and an even worse speller. He gave me run down on some of the stories he was writing and a few of them sounded like something that may interest you.

He had scenarios where there was a threesome and one guy was forced to suck the other off or something like that. He lost me when he started writing about gay and bi-sexual stuff. I told him that I wasn't into that. He wrote back asking where to find you. I told him to check the author's index and to use your contact link.

Just wondering if he contacted you and if you were interested in helping him out.

No, he didn't. And I'm up to my ears with my mainstream world editing and editing for eXcessica (which, along with a writer's organization anthology I'm working on is about all the pro bono work I can handle). The only Lit. queries I've gotten recently were from Lit. forum regulars--and the material wasn't as you describe.

Not good Sandy, they're going to accuse you of being my alt. You need to tone down the accolades a bit. Bitch slap me first before you pay me a compliment. That's what the rest of them do to me around here.

Now, try that again, but give me a good kick in the ass first. That way, no one will suspect that you're me and I'm you.

Okay?

You've got it wrong, Freddie. I expected this. Jimbo doesn't get to me. That fuck you was the same thing that I'd say to someone who cut me off in traffic. It's said and gone that quick and I'm back to driving.

I have a place that I post, my myspace page. I have a blog there and I advertise my work there. I come to this site just to upset Jimbo, which I did considering how he felt he had to malign and bastardize my review. I didn't even read what he had to say, he doesn't hold the power over me to make me care, but I pissed him off enough for him to do that, didn't I...

 

[BOSTONFICTIONWRITER]

Don't get your panties in a bunch, Ace. I immediately thought of you. I thought you could help the guy out is all. I wasn't being smart or trying to insult you. I just felt bad for the guy and I knew you could help him.

"Up to your ears?"

Maybe, you should wear shoes with heels?

I'll even forward you his e-mail if your interested, but since you're up to your ears already, I think it's a mute point.

Okay, sorry, I'll let you get back to your bad self.

Just wait until the light turns green and give your directional before pulling out in traffic again.

By the way...nice car.

Panties in a bunch? However did you get that impression? I give help as I can when PMed. And when I'm swamped I say so. Even when I'm swamped, I give an idea when I could look at it and how deep I'd be able to get into it. Has nothing to do with either asking or being receptive to being asked.

Have no idea why what I responded with would send you ballistic--other than that you are prone to going ballistic.

What's wrong with saying I'm overcommitted on work at the moment when I am?

Haw! If telling somebody that they are "talking sense" is an accolade then this place is even crazier than I initially thought. Don't worry BOSTONFICTIONWRITER if somebody tries to piss in my Wheaties I usually call them on it, but if they don't I ignore the bullshit about them from others.

Oh that reminds me sr71plt. That was a pretty neat deal you pulled by inserting additional comments into a post several minutes after you initially posted it and well after it had been responded to. Real slick.

BTW, you admitted that you were never in the military on that other thread. Aren't you a little bit embarrassed by passing yourself off as a military pilot? Shame on you. Those guys EARNED their respect.

Not sure why you are trying to be such a yutz.

I always go back and look at my posts after I've written them. I almost always find at least typoes that I'd like to fix. Sometimes I've thought about what I want to clarify. Never do I do so after I've seen a response that makes me want to provide follow up--then I just post a follow up. Don't care if you believe that. I have no reason to banter with you. You are a naive youngster on that particular thread (and most likely a lot others too). I just stopped posting to your naivete altogether, because we weren't getting anywhere.

As for piloting. The intelligence community has its own photo reconnaissance planes for its own uses--and always has (Francis Gary Powers wasn't in the service when he was flying the U2). The Air Force maintains the planes, Agency pilots pilot them. I've never claimed to be in the armed services--and have always corrected anyone who assumed I was. So, I've never tried to pass myself off as a military pilot. Identify where I've done that, or stop making that claim.

There, SF, I've amended another of my postings substantly. And as of the amending, you haven't posted to this issue, so I'm not sneaking anything in. What I've added is in bold. Powers was in the Air Force--for 4 years. But was not in the Air Force when he was flying the U2 for the Agency and got shot down. See Operation Overlfight, by Francis Gary Powers).

 

[sr71plt]

My, we're a contentious bunch today, aren't we?

You mean...(sniff, sniff)...you're not an Ace?

My hero...

Oh, well.

 

[BOSTONFICTIONWRITER]

My, we're a contentious bunch today, aren't we?

I think there's a full moon coming. Maybe, you should take some time out from posting and read my story, Boston Halloween Massacre. It's only 70,000 words and 22 chapters. You should finish it in a few hours, Ace, er, I mean, Mister.

 

[sr71plt]

You mean...(sniff, sniff)...you're not an Ace?

My hero...

Oh, well.

Nope. Never was. Aces shot things down. All I did was fly a plane that took pictures--I didn't even snap the pictures. I flew from point A to G, traveling over points B, C. D. E, and F. And I only did that for a couple of years.

Tell you what. Go to eXcessica and buy and read my latest, released Monday (a 140,000-word anthology), and I'll be happy to scan through your massacre of a Halloween story.

 

[BOSTONFICTIONWRITER]

Tell you what. Go to eXcessica and buy and read my latest, released Monday (a 140,000-word anthology), and I'll be happy to scan through your massacre of a Halloween story.

So, let me get this straight. You want me to buy when you will just scan.

Now, that doesn't sound fair. I'll be out dollars and you'll be out a few minutes of your time.

I don't think that's a good trade off, Ace.

Are you that desparate for buyers of your work? Is the publisher pressuring you to sell? That sucks. See, that's why I don't write to publish. I just write for fun.

Actually, I have a bunch of books, no not coloring books (funny) that I need to read. And I have stories to write. I don't generally read when I write. Reading ruins my writing.

I'll recommend your book to my friends, though. What is your book about? Is it mainstream or (gulp) about men having gay sex?

 

[Daniellekitten]

By the way, Freddie, I'm working on my hundredth friend on myspace...interested...

Afraid I need to call bullshit on you there slick:

Powers was born in Jenkins, Kentucky, with Melungeon ancestry, and raised in Pound, Virginia, on the Virginia-Kentucky border. After graduating from Milligan College in Eastern Tennessee, he was commissioned in the United States Air Force in 1950. Upon completing his training (52-H) he was assigned to the 468th Strategic Fighter Squadron at Turner Air Force Base, Georgia as an F-84 Thunderjet pilot. He was assigned to operations in the Korean War, but (according to his son) was recruited by the CIA because of his outstanding record in single engine jet aircraft, soon after recovering from an illness. [2] By 1960, the 31-year old Powers was already a veteran of many covert aerial reconnaissance missions. Quoted from Wikipedia.

the US Government doesn't let people fly multimillion-dollar aircraft unless they are trained. The only place (unless you are an ultra rich dude that can afford private jet lessons) to get that experience is in the military. Even if Daddy gave you the money to get your Lear Jet license, you still are not going to have the ratings to fly a high performance jet aircraft - especially the fastest of them all!

BTW, thanks for calling me a youngster. After a 30 year career in the military that is kinda cute.

I've already read some of your stuff, Freddie. 70,000 words from you isn't really worth more than a scan.

And, yes, if you want me to wade into 70,000 words of your writing, you'll have to pay me.

Not desperate for buyers at all, Freddie, thanks. All my eXcessica profits go back into eXcessica (as my publisher might come along and tell you).

Yep, is a Gay Male book, Freddie. 40 stories of GAY MALE sex. (And after three days launched it is #6 on the publisher's best-seller's list at Fictonwise.)

A little late on the clicker, Sandy. Read my amended posting above (I know you'll get a kick out of that). Quoted from Power's book, not from Wikipedia, incidentally.

From the end of page 20 of Operation Overflight, "I was approached by 'the agency.'" leading directly to the next words on page 21, "Late in January, 1956, as Francis G. Palmer, a civilian employee of the Department of the Air Force, according to the official identifiction in my wallet . . ."

If you can't figure out who he was working for from this, you are greener around the gills than even I thought.

And, why, yes I'm from an ultrarich dude family and had private jet lessons when I was recruited and trained (yes, through the Air Force). But never in the Air Force, which was what you accused me of pretending to be. Why would you assume the photorecon pilot training program of Powers in the 50s was the same as the training the the 70s?

Have you found anywhere where I have claimed to have been in the service yet?

Fire a lot from the hip without preparation or knowledge, do you?--which goes back to your brilliant look capability from the trenches idea.

You certainly have landed on the forum with angry jack boots--all over the place.

Oh yeah. I'm REALLY convinced by that! It's just as likely (actually much more) that you live with your mom and drive a Ford Focus. It seems like the only person that I landed on with "jack boots" is an arrogant fucks up in his imagined ivory tower, there slick.

Happily, I don't need to care what you think is true or not, sport. For the purposes of the Author's Hangout on a porn site, perhaps it's enough that you can easily see that I do write and publish, and that you . . .

Can I tell you that I love you?

hey Lady C...How are you feeling?

I'll answer that. True to form.
