Don't let them get to you, some people on here have nothing better to do then be mean and judgemental. As a lurker, you should now how snarky some people on this board can be for absolutely no reason whatsover.

You still have plenty of people wanting to read your tale, so please, continue.

I think it's along the lines of nitpicking something intended for entertainment. Or at least that's how I'm seeing it.

My grew up in the middle of nowhere, graduated in a class of 30 (at the top though ), rodeoing self begs to differ somehow. But anyways I was enjoying the story even though I wouldn't have pegged it to be written by an editor. On with the story!

Agreed.


I'm going back and forth between Guitar Hero II and this thread... anxiously waiting for more!

Gotta love summer vacation

Okay, so I didn't come from "old money" I came from "no money" so it all sounds like a fantasy to me. I never would have dreamed of clothing that intricately planned. That's the only reason I doubted it.

I would really like to hear the rest of the story. Don't be discouraged! It's not the first time people have had "sock puppets" and it makes people doubtful to believe some things.

Cool

I lurk a lot as well and rarely post - but please please please continue! It never crossed my mind that this was fake. It actually sounds very typical of "Rush" in the late 70's, 80's - specifically at competitive schools.

Recruitment,
Please continue--whatever else has been said, it's abundantly clear everyone here is hooked! For those of us Northerners (or anyone who experienced a less competitive rush), it's fascinating to hear about a different experience.

Also, I know you emphasized discretion (re your mother's identity, understandably) but some hints about the geographic location of the school and the time period might stave off some of the critics. Just a thought. Either way, I'd love to hear more!
