Does exactly what it says on the tin. Some of the nonsense contained herein may be very loosely related to The Sisters of Mercy, but I wouldn't bet your PayPal account on it. In keeping with the internet's general theme nothing written here should be taken as Gospel: over three quarters of it is utter gibberish, and most of the forum's denizens haven't spoken to another human being face-to-face for decades. Don't worry your pretty little heads about it. Above all else, remember this: You don't have to stay forever. I will understand.
Thank you. Have you read anything by this author? He seems to also have written a novel called The Old Man and the Sea. Metallica might have used that as an inspiration for "The Thing That Should Not Be":

Yep! Hemingway's often required reading in U.S. junior high/high schools, at least in their advanced English programs (*ahem* ). Try "A Farewell to Arms" - nicely heart-wrenching.
Currently on Nick Hornby's 'How To Be Good'
I find it excellent and goes someway to explaining the female/male psyche. Men and women should never. live together

I'm trying to work out whether this is a comment on my failed attempt at sarcasm that got disarmed by Sinny's benevolence, or just a continuation of the literary turn of this thread.

Now that was funny. Isn't it always the case, though?

Would be fitting, I suppose, as our Master/Major/Belle has been quite a character. Har har. *cough*

In the case of Clucking Belle, I was under the impression that he just writes 100 posts and then adopts a new board persona.
Clucking Belle was the third incarnation of this *person* that I have known since I started posting here. The Bell does toll for him at that magical 100th post.
far east?
like japan? *wishes hed concentrated in geography*
Dear Belle clucked himself off to China. And it looks like he clucked himself back to London to take his last gasp. Or maybe he just became Peking duck....LOL
