Paolo,
That popup scared me too! But then I'm just a timid lil guy, so out of place when I'm not on my John Deere
Congrats on the board hits, guys!
Personally I wouldn't be too concerned about the low number of posts lately... I think the atmosphere around here is one that makes folks feel that their opinions and questions are welcome - I know it struck me that way from my very first visit.
Isn't it better to have fewer HIGH QUALITY, sincere posts, than a lot of useless (or offensive) trivial nonesense?

Limpone, have you considered a serial to PS2 adaptor plug for your mouse? You might also consider running a want ad for "old mouse for win95, serial" and see how many you can find. Offer 'em a buck each ...
And Charlieje, love the picture! You're right of course. Now all we need is that red/blond little boy in shortalls riding the tractor! Can't hardly see you tho.

Yes Charlie .. you are right. I have always been impressed with the quality of participants here.
The 'pop up' can be used for all kinds of announcements ... and turned off entirely if I/We so choose ... I that's why I programmed it the way I did

Any changes I make to the message effect ALL stories with the pop up code ... so you don't have older stories popping up and old message. Does that make any sense?
And ... registered author stories don't contain the pop up code at all. FYI

are interested by this subject. Even if only by repulsion.
I find it fascinating how this place has taken off. The story boards have gotten bigger and bigger. It seems that everyone has contributed a story or is contributing on a regular basis.
I think that there is some sort of sexual/sociological phenomenon going on here. These are the types of things that spawn Ph.D.'s research in psychology and such.
But from that number of hits I would say that a universal primal chord has been struck in the psyche's of many.
No doubt about it, the E.A. is here to stay!
I just wonder what mainstream magazine, news agency is going to be courageous enough to briing this to public forums.
Springer, here we cum!
You want dysfunctional, Baby?
YOU AIN'T SEEN NUTHIN' YET!

Jerry Springer did get his filthy paws on a eunuch story. The show was titled "I Did My Own Sex Change." I have it on tape somewhere, and it's a travesty to the entire Eunuch community, online and not.
The eunuch in question was humiliated, badgered, and basically made to look the fool on national TV via editting for the sake of money and ratings. I have no clue how much or IF he was paid, but I wouldn't do it for any amount of money!
The whole theme of the show was basically "If you're different and no one else can help you and you deal with it as best you can, you're a f*cking idiot and a freak and we hate you."
I'd happily go on a TV show with Bboy and Talula and anyone else on a program with a much more pleasant host, but Springer can kiss my ass ... Metaphorically speaking, he isn't getting anywhere near my ass and if someone claiming to be from his show pops up here, the little red NUKE icon in the control panel is just primed and ready for him.
Of course, after that dreadful episode, I seriously doubt if anyone associated with him or producing his show would have the balls to show up here. Pun intended.
