Hey, I thought you liked IBM! hehehe Anyways, naw, BMW's are fairly
nice-looking (I think) .. They go faster than my Toyota .. The new one
has 12 Cylenders, and they are well-built ... No, the IBM of the car
market would be a company that charges $100,000 for a new car, and when
a belt breaks, you have to replace the entire engine for $70,000 instead
of the $25 belt!

Don't try to feel real important.
I look at it this way, noone who would end up at a furry party has an
extended-type attention span anyway. In fact (and Crystal and I were
just talking about this last night) ... some furries I know who shall
remain nameless (actually a few of them) ... you kinda have to talk to
them like you'd talk to a sprinkler. Whenever the head is pointed in
your direction, you talk to it.... actually, I'm like that... so
don't worry about it. Go to the furry party and have fun.

Why??!! Sex is a part of every normally functional adult's life, and
it makes little (read: no) sense to treat it as somehow unspeakable
or intrinsically different from any other type of experience. I can
understand finding conversation about something you don't happen to
enjoy distasteful, but why would it be a problem to talk about?

Ding, yourself!!!!! So I am a little uptight when it comes to discussing
sex. It comes from having parents who were 40 years old when I was born.
Sex was something you DID NOT talk about in my house. Now that I am
older, (and wiser?) I can talk about it, but I still get embarrassed.
I'm working on it......, I would probably be a "real" prude if it hadn't
been for the surrogate family I had as a teenager.
Sex is something that lots of people have trouble discussing. It doesn't
mean that they are UPTIGHT!!!!! I can fling induendos with the best of
them.... but a serious sexual conversation is a little harder for me.

For those of you who enjoy bashing homosexuals, read today's
Sarasota Herald-Tribune. (22 March) It seems that one extreme homo-
phobe (homosexual hater, okay?) during a routine check-up for his life
insurance tested HIV-positive.
The gentleman in question had made a habit of literally bashing
homosexuals: of beating them up rather viciously. It's guessed that
some HIV-positive blood of a homosexual got mixed with his blood while
he was engaged in this pursuit...

I think what he was talking about was conversation. On a BBS, there
can be a large number of conversations going on all at once, and every-
one has time to respond or not to everyone else. In real life, it's
hard to "butt in" on a conversation without being rude; on a BBS, it's
extremely easy. Also, on a BBS, you have time to type long expressions
like this withou boring the other person; that doesn't happen in real

Okay! I think I'll drop th lttr "e." Or mayb not.
Things to do around the Sarasota/ Bradenton area:
1. Practice your jogging. Go to the center of the New College Palm
Court and shout, "YOU BUNCH OF HIPPIE FREAKS! DON'T YOU KNOW THE
SIXTIES ARE DEAD?"
2. Practice the fine art of spoon-hanging.
3. Try to pickpocket a policeman's gun. (Always wonderful for some

4. Start a new religion.
5. Skinny-dip in the ocean and shock the retirees.
6. Practice your jogging. At midnight, take a leisurely stroll down
MLK drive with a T-shirt reading "David Duke for LA governor."
7. Try to find a store that sells sealing wax. (I'm serious!)

It's easier to discuss sex when the words are just "blips on a

there's not much of a chance the person is trying to seduce you.
In person, it's often a thinly disguised attempt.

The strongest alcohol we've had at furry parties have been "Hot and

Bring alcohol if you feel like it: use your judgement who to offer
it to. (I rarely drink, and won't touch any that night. I'll be driving

It's easier to talk about "anything" over a modem. I mean, if you truly
disgrace yourself, you have the option of never calling again or
changing your handle. I have made some very good friends over this wire,
as I'm sure you have to. I'd hate to have anything stop me from posting
here........ I'm looking forward to meeting those I haven't yet.
I'm not really worried about a sexual discussion turning into "the big
come on". I'm old enough to know how to handle that. Duh! As Nancy

Not true at all. You ever see a case of board rape?

I disagree there, too. There's a difference between 'discussing sex' and
'bragging about your sexual exploits'; the latter is more likely to
be a thinly (or not) disguised attempt at seduction.

That's true, but one of the worst habits to get into is getting
yourself into a situation, realizing you can't deal with it and
then evaporating. Trust me, I know. Talking about things like sex
on a bulletin board might FEEL safer, because you never have to
look who you're talking to in the eye, you can spend time between
question and answer thinking about the "truth" of a matter and whether
or not you want to let it out, and you DO have an alias, or an option
to keep anonymity.
In any case, using a BBS for those kinds of discussions can be a
sort of therapy, because once you tell a 'secret' and you get a
response to it, you can let your guard down because you know what
to expect as a response.
Sorry, got me off on a little tangent there... 11am is NOT a good time

Hmmm. Would I feel good? No, but I would feel vindicated.
Look at it like this. I hate fags, because they are sick, and they
act strangely, and they just repulse me. So, if a fag comes to me and
propositions me, then I have to look at it like this: he looked at me,
and figured that I looked enough like a fag to come and proposition me.
Therefore, he thinks that I look like a fag. Keeping in mind that I
find fags utterly repulsive, by association, he has just insulted me.
If someone insults me, usually I can pass it off, or let it slide. Some
men can't field insults about thier mothers without "going off" on you.
I can't (WON'T) field insults which insinuate that I'm gay.
Besides, if someone you didn't like came up and gave you the most
blatant insult you can think of, what would you do? I think you would

good of the nation. He doesn't really want to tackle the country's
myriad of domestic problems because, to paraphrase one of his advisors,
"the situation in the country right now and the problems it is
experiencing are ideally suited to keeping the Republicans in power
indefinitely." Jesse Helms, on the other hand, honestly and truly
believe that he has God personally behind him, and that makes him
much more dangerous...and much more sickening.

No. Ward was running the original CBBS until about three years ago,
when he turned it over to someone else and decided to pursue different
interests instead. I believe the system has since gone down. When I

the doctors had to remove from the human (not just male!) anus.
The most common article was the common soda bottle. Turns out that the

Well, after conking out on me the night of Turtle's birthday party, I
am pleased to announce the Smog-Monster (which it has become
affectionately known) is back in running order...turns out that when
I put the 440 in, I neglected to switch the ignition over to point
ignition---I just hooked up the point distributor to the electronic
ignition and started it up. Well, it ran so I went with it and decided
(someday) to put an electronic distributor back in it.
Not having the correct voltages to work with results in a shorted out
electrical system...which I found out the hard way. So, I ended up
replacing not only the distributor, but the ballast resistor, the
starter relay, the electronic voltage regulator and (last but not least(
the alternator. Not to mention a few fused and separated wires.
Expensive? Not too bad, the whole cost of the switchover was around
$70...and when he put in the new ignition, he also adjusted the idle
and the timing.
The upshot of this whole thing is that it's back, and badder than e
ever...so maybe it wasn't such a bad thing that it died at 8:30 on a
Saturday night stranding me out on 301. But it sure sucked the big one

You're running an IBM clone, right? I'd suggest checking out TP-Board

about twenty or thirty bucks to register. The more expensive BBS
packages (like Wildcat, which is a couple hundred bucks, I think)
are howling dogs that you don't want to come near (if someone offers
you Wildcat, run, don't walk, in the other direction). The only
commercial BBS package I've seen for the IBM that's any good is
TBBS, and it costs about $900 to set up...and you've got to be a pretty

Well, since it's hard to actually do anything other than leave messages

Your belief of banning Drs. that have contracted AIDS is quite Valid,
Rubber gloves just don't cut it.
On the other hand (no pun intended), what if you were a doctor... let's
say 20 years inpractice, and you contract AIDS from a blood transfusion
necessary from a recent operation that you had?
Who would pay for your re-training for a new career? The taxpayers are
burdened enough with welfare, etc... .
One solution that I see would be to put a special tax on medical &
surgical supplies...let's say .05%. The half-percent is small enough not
to produce sticker shock and the volume of supplies sold is plenty to
enable the fund to be functional.
The fund would be used to assist afflicted doctors in training for a new
career.
What do you think? Despite your belief [which I agree with], you can't
just drop 'em on the street corner.

It would be a shame to see a Doctor lose his career because he has AIDS.
But what about the other thousands of people who lose their careers and
lives and loved ones to the diesise. You can't compensate them all, and
indeed, why should it be the responcibility of the tax payers to do
this? It's a rough subject........ I know. But throughout history, there
have been plagues.... this is just another chapter, hopefully not a
final chapter. The statistics are frightening world wide. I've only
known, personally, one person who died of AIDS. Before his death, he
lost his job, his friends, most of his family (they were afraid to see
him and even more afraid to touch him). He was left alone. He died in
the hospital and only three people other than the Nurses and Doctors
ever contacted him before he died. It was really a travesty.

Aha. Syncro-jumping looked like fun. I would have joined in if my
insides had been up for it. I liked the "innocent bystander moshing" too
Wish I could have gotten some of that outside action on VHS. I didn't
get too much on tape, unfortunately.

KO: As for the friend that died..... If it were cancer that he had, it
would have been a whole different story.
Yes, and no. Relatives and friends sometimes shun each other when one
is terminally ill. Maybe because they can't deal with it, or maybe
because they are somehow trying to protect themselves from the pain of
seeing someone slip away.

Well, maybe not...but at least she did have the proper response, even if
it was for the wrong reason.
For those of you out there who consider yourselves to be behaviorists,
take heed: An organism's responses to its environment do not always give
an accurate indication of that organism's mental state. Here we have a
behavior (saying the New Kids concert "sucked") which would normally
indicate at least a moderate amount of intellectual development in the
test subject, yet in this case it does not ncessarily indicate such
development.
That's not rude, is it?

Yeah, but you have to bear in mind that quite often the people chatting
on Terran Trace are (a) very young and (b) not always terribly profound,
so some of the limitations with chat mode may be more because of the
people doing it than with the medium itself. I'm sure a phone conver-
sation with some of Terran Trace's users would be equally
unenlightening.

>Did you read my post on people who don't care?
The nature of disease is such that a communicable disease will *never*
confine itself to one part of a population. Even if everyone on the
planet had the same attitude you do toward gays, AIDS would not be con-
fined to the gay community, simply because the pattern of disease spread
in a given population doesn't work that way. You will always get trans-
ferrance through non-sexual means, transferrance from bisexuals to
people who do not know their partner is bisexual (and there's no way
you will ever convince me that anyone can know with 100% certainty any-
thng about his or her partner's past if that person is willing to lie
about that past)...and in any event there is no evidence that AIDS
even /started out/ in the gay community to begin with; only that it
initially spread most quickly in the gay and Hispanic community.
Referring to AIDS as a gay disease, or even as a "primarily gay"
disease, is ludicrous, just as referring to syphillus as a "black
disease" is absurd even though outbreaks are most common in areas with
a large population concentration of blacks. It flies in the face of
everything we currrently know about disease epidemology.

That would be a very good argument except for one flaw: there is a
difference between being against Characteristic X and being against
people with Characteristic X. The fact that Saavik and I will continue
to associate with bigots indicates a difference of kind with people
who will not associate with people who are gay. QED. [As The
Specialist's analogy goes down in flames... :)]
In case you hadn't noticed, I am "against" homosexuality in the sense
that the thought of buggering some guy turns my stomach and I'd
rather be trampled to death by water buffalo than find myseld
in bed with some other male. I am not, however, "against" gays (or
against bigots); I am, therefore, not a homophobe...or a "bigotphobe."

Actually, he probably doesn't. The information gets recorded and
transcribed later, so he only has to spend eight hours a day reading
this stuff. Did Rufus and I tell you about the time we dumped the

Ah, the images the term 'back seat' conjures up. I took my friend along

neat bump and he said "I've experienced it [meaning the bump] in the
back of Miriam's car." Needless to say, it's a quote on my senior page.
