O.K., I didn't realise that there was some background to this story. 
The reason that I didn't like it was because there seemed to be no
indication that the heroine of the story was consenting to all that was
happening, at least not until after the fact.  There is sometimes a
worrying tendency among men to believe that it is O.K. to do things to a
woman that she doesn't like or want, as long as you 'win her over' in
the end.
	Anyway, keep on flying :-) .

That elfin face
And brilliant eyes
A flaming flow
Of golden hair
A laugh
A flashing smile
I held you in my arms
Those times we talked together
And later lay entwined
Love brighter than the sun
But always you were leaving me
You were always called away
The memory was broken
In the darker light of day

Well, I guess as her personal PR nightmare, I will appear
(with the appropriate flames and brimstone, of course)
in ARC to make sure there is a

to her nomination for Prez. Gods know I don't give her enough
work lately so she isn't bored...And so, let's take a step into
the WayBack machine and visit Julie as a child, when even then
she was honing her skills for her personal rise to the top.

Possible permutations provide promising proliferations, Paul. Your

These past few days, whenever I look out any window that faces west
I see the tall Rocky Mountains with a freah layer of white on the

the remains of Pacific hurricane Lester passed through, but I'm wondering
