And you are right. His harrassment was not amusing in the least. I feel bad for her. I know my harrasser was no where near as bad as FA was to Thriller, but I know how he affected me. I really feel terrible she had to go through that. All I know is, if you tell him you own or have access to guns, and he says "no you don't you stupid liar," he's probably bluffing you right back. And that I wouldn't be bluffing if I told someone that. And that I WOULD shoot someone if I thought they were a serious threat to me or to someone I cared about. I was ready to hunt FA down when he first started that. W00t! Forms have been filled! heh- except we do have guns in this house ^_^" 12 of them I think... if I recall correctly here so I wouldn't be bluffing. And I don't blame you. He deserved something that was for sure Yes, yes they have... and now I sit here staring at more files that have my mind screaming NO! What have you DONE!?... *cringes* New things... more files and forms... it's scary.. but if I can get through it right the first time I have a better chance the 2nd and 3rd times lol. Now if I can only remember what trim size I was going with... ^_^"

I kind'a found FA funny, too. It's sad that Thrillergirl took him seriously... <_<
I doubt that blocking a name can keep someone from posting with it anonymously. I think that's for usernames... but I'm not sure.
Hmm... there's these two ideas that keep popping up for me. I thought of Kole's story idea quite a while back. Possibly even when I was in 8th grade... (I remember drawing a girl with a weird outfit that was supposed to be futuristic). The other one, about Kyoko was thought of more recently, like several months ago, since I was thinking about possibly making a original version of my fanfic. Now the fanfic's done, I'd like to start a original story... but there's things that I'm just not sure about yet. But then, like this morning while my dad drove me to college in the snow, I asked him if rain could be as slippery as snow, and he said it could be, which goes with the Kyoko story... Since she slid off of the road during the rain one night. Now, a few minutes ago, I hear about the effects of global warming on the news, and how the temperature's going to rise until a certain date, and if we stop poluting now, it will quit, but if not, it will keep going up. That goes with my Kole story, in that it's about the future. So, thoughout the past few years, everytime I hear about something very new, I think about that story and how the thing could work into it...
Hmm... I guess I've talked enough. Just wondering about what you think on that.

Yeah, rain can be pretty dangerous if you're not careful.
I think it's a good idea to think about these things and incorporate them into your stories, but I don't believe in this "global warming is caused by our sins" hype, and for several reasons:
We're still in the tail end of an ice age. The ice caps prove it. We can't stop the earth warming anymore than we can stop the sun shining-- it's part of a natural cycle that's been going on for thousands of millenia.
Volcanoes put out more in a day than we do in our entire lives, and there's still life on Earth. (The things PBS teaches you. XD)
The scientists who claim they've "proven" global warming took their measurements either in or too close to cities, which are hotter than the surrounding, less inhabited areas, partly because of human bodies and partly because of human machines. Their experimentations were unscientific and unreliable. Yet because of sensationalist media and people who want us to hate our own societies, the naysayers are booed down and unheard. It's pop science.
On the other hand, the world may well be warming up. I just don't believe it to be any fault of humankind.

From what I've heard, part is due to us, part is due to nature. There was a chart that graphed the temperature change, compared to nature's stuff, and to polution. Neither one seemed to match the true data, but both together did. It's not about sinning... it's just about putting so much CO 2 in the atmosphere. It's possible that the hole at Antartica and the temperature changes are just a normal cycle, but if it is, then the last time it's been this warm was before we were here... I've... kind'a always associated global warming with the end of the world... So, I've been kind'a worrired recently...

This "sin" thing was a metaphor. Basically, the media thinks everything is our fault, ie the world is ending because of our sins.
I wouldn't worry too much, Asj-- Ted says that with the weight of the ice caps gone, the continents will actually rise some, so the water levels won't go up anywhere near as much as people would have you believe.
Plus, the most anyone'd probably have to do is move inland.
I know. I'm such an optimist. But the dinosaurs had plenty of land to move around on, judging by fossil records, and they didn't have all that landlocked ice, so the way I see it, it's hardly going to be Armageddon.
Besides, I know my account's squared-- He knows I'm a sinner, and I know He loves me anyhow.

Actually I probably wouldn't have noticed right away if you hadn't mentioned it. ^^; (Darn you, idiot spammer, you're not annoying enough! lol)
I wonder if he/she/it actually reads anything here, or if it just added the forum to its rounds randomly? XD (Because if someone said I wasn't annoying enough, I wouldn't be able to resist responding.) ("I am TOO annoying enough! thbbb!")

There are too many link in that post for the person to have must time for anything else. *giggles* I would love to see that... XD
