there seem to be many exceptional women here.

I think you're right there! have you been Tessa'd yet?

I have already thought of three ways I could get you to shut up, your post makes me want to see those pretty lips around a gag. Then I would chain you to a laptop, moptop...

Wow, sorry if I am getting scary already, we just met.

Chained to a laptop. Hmmm. I think I already am.

Scary??? Unh-unh!! You can't stop there - what's the third way!!! (I have a few ideas of my own...).

I was looking at the story contest thread and got a little inspired to try to slam something out before the end of the month just for fun. I dare you to write one too. Take your mind off waiting for reviews, and there is the thrill of the deadline...

- ulp. Deadline. I'll see... no promises! I havn't looked at the theme yet.

A pinch of salt...that saying always gets me...I wonder where it came from.

It's biblical/superstitious in some way. I understand it is related to throwing a pinch of salt over your left shoulder, if you spill some; the devil lives behind your left shoulder, God or an angel behind your right. You throw spilt salt over your left shoulder to get it in the devil's eyes and ward off evil. That goes back to the days when salt was a very expensive commodity, plus a symbol of your social status (you sat above or below the salt at table, depending on whether you were important or not).

That could all be total rubbish!!

Of course you're a glutton for punishment; you're a writer.

Damn. That explains so much! But - chicken or egg - am I a writer because I'm a glutton for punishment?

Story contest... I'll go see now... but I SHOULD be continuing my rewrite of my non-assignment. (I'm two-thirds there, guys, honest).
