I also read a book (Portia da Costa's Gemini Heat) which opened my eyes to what could be done writing erotica. <br /><br />And The Dark Side was the first thing of yours I read.

I've enjoyed the posts here for years, starting with Garces' stuff--always thought-provoking and weird, yet insightful into what it feels like to be a man. I've shared things with you all here that my husband would cringe with embarrassment if he knew, so I won't tell him if you don't. But as a writer of naughty stories, who lives an overly-busy life that is the opposite of what I write, I've truly enjoyed being able to let my figurative hair down here, with like-minded folks. So I may be the last one around, who turns out the lights. So be it. And yes, Lisbet, I know where to find you.

You did grab me with the post title and movie poster however. Always loved that Marx Brothers film, and now I can't get Groucho's song "Hello I Must Be Going" out of my head! (I actually know all the words).

BUT if I can inform or inspire someone else to donate, the few bucks I can provide will make more of a difference.<br /><br />It's hard to continue life when someone you cared about is gone.

The only one of these I've seen is "When Harry Met Sally". Of course, I haven't watched television for about thirty years, but still, I'm not sure that's an excuse.<br /><br />We used to watch Mr. Magoo's "A Christmas Carol" every year.
