| Evenings of Impotence: series Part 4 High in the alps lived a child, who had not a name, but a number. Sad and bitter, he resented the fact that the other children were having fun without him.
So he started writing stories that had no point, and others that aimed darts of malice and sarcasm in all directions.
Some of his writing was good, and well received, but these efforts were overshadowed by the blatent ill-will of his other scribblings.
He lived, but not happily, ever after.

| Welcome to the board, Azreal. Though I appreciate the humor & intent, let's not play the games that certain others like to play.
Oh yeah...& enjoy the free use of our Graemlins! We hope you jump in & have a good time. Be sure to visit the other areas on FN too.

| It amused me to turn the barb of the rude back upon its wielder. I meant no disrespect to you, or to the others here.
Thank you for the welcome. I may contribute, from time to time.

| No problemo. You'll find this group talented, kind & gracious(except for that Willow character...she bites! I'm kidding, though. She's my best friend offline. Ya gotta tease the ones you love). It's refreshing to see a new face in the crowd.

| 355, no one is "allowed" to break the guidelines. Like you, Azreal received a warning. Enough of the spite & bitterness. It is unbecoming.

Alright, ladies and gentlemen!! In this corner, we have, weighing in at a suggested 355, our challenger, 355!!
And in the other corner, we have our defending champ, weighing in at what weight I dare not guess for fear of retaliation, the esteemed Moonitic!!
Now, normally I'd say "Let's keep it clean", but I know better than to bother. So, without further ado, let's have at it!!

| P.S. "Adu"? "Adieu"? Ah, I give up.
By the way, Azreal, welcome! Hope you find a character pretty soon!
