Why is that RC designation unique to Jay and Acacia? How come no-one else has a letter-designated RC?

I've put up a prologue to my agents' adventures. Concrit would be appreciated, and I'm also submitting this as my writing sample for Permission.
PPC: Irritations and Annoyances

And the inclusion of an appendix we no longer use.

Like I said, it's only my theory anyway. I was brought up to be a gentleman. Therefore I'm chivalrous, don't take advantage of people et cetera.

I just figured that the ages were the same, which I think is perfectly fair.

Does England have laws on homosexuality?

DNW?

Specifically, Little Women: The Musical and Little Women: A Little Musical?

The former is somewhat older and quite a lot better known, having run on Broadway, but it is the latter of which I'd like to speak.

Three years ago tonight, due to a class I was taking at Utah State University, I was assigned to see and amateur-review a local community theater production. So impressed was I that on the way out I bought a copy of the soundtrack. I was a little disappointed, for reasons I'll get to in a moment.

This "Little Musical" covers about half of the book; I don't remember exactly, but it ends sometime between Beth's funeral and Jo's (re)departure for New York. (Certain events were changed or put in different orders; Jo never went to New York the first time in this version.) As I discovered when I encountered the Broadway musical, many of the songs are at the same points of the story. But one song, one I really liked, is missing from the soundtrack. It is the equivalent to "Take a Chance on Me"; Laurie is telling Jo that he thinks Meg has fallen in love with his tutor, and she retorts that "Love Doesn't Happen That Way". It's a great, funny song, and is reprised when Laurie proposes at Beth's funeral. But it doesn't appear even once on my soundtrack, so I'm wondering if there's some way I could get ahold of a (legitimate) recording thereof.

The website offers a perusal score, which would presumably include it but would have no sound; it also offers the original soundtrack recording, probably the one I have, and a premier DVD. I don't really want to spend fifty dollars on a DVD of totally unknown quality, especially when I don't know whether it's cut to remove the very part I want. Does anyone have knowledge of that?

When I was younger, I used to read CYOA books all the time, and stick my fingers in the pages to keep my place. It flattened my knuckles.

So we can all be sad together. I spent about half an hour going through all of them, without even realizing it.

...the one where you end up duct-taped to the Console.

Other than that, though, the AHARIQ match. Moral of story: sportsmanship is for losers!

Well, we're not exactly the best designed creatures, as you must have noticed every time you choke on a peanut.

The weirdest bit's the way so many states have no laws about homosexual acts.

You might change your mind once you start having it. A lot of people just have urges that need fulfilling. Depends on your sex drive, really. And it's not always about the mentally satisfying, either. One night stands are more about the physically satisfying. For that matter, sex in a committed relationship's sometimes mostly about the physical satisfying too. It's, y'know, fun. In theory, anyway.

Of course, it helps if you're drunk. One night stands, I mean; if you need to get pissed to shag your wife there's a bit of a problem.

Happy birthday, Oozaru. I present you with a sack of pebbles, your own sling and a basket of Bleeprin-berries.

*hides, hoping that the issue of polybetaness won't cause OA to throw pebbles at her*

There's on state where the age of consent is 14 for females and 16 (I think) for males. Um, no. DNW!

In a completely awesome way.

Kreguer and the dream thing seemed to be the only link to the fandom.

Damn, I've spelt his name wrong, haven't I? Sorry. I haven't actually watched the movie even though I've had it on DVD for six months.

I don't understand one night stands all that much. I'm a man and I wouldn't even consider sex with a woman (or man, if I turn out to be gay) unless I had a major emotional connection with them. Sex with a prostitute, for example, just wouldn't be as mentally satisfying as with my wife for example (I think. Given that I'm a virgin, this is all speculation). Unless, of course, you know, I happened to be dating a prostitute. *shrugs*

If I'm reading this right, men can have sex at 18 in some states, but women at 16? WTF Equality?

Thanks for the information. Although it still confuses me a bit that sex leads to UTIs... whatever.
