Seriously, though, why are all the pages so short? There's too much clicking involved, and unless one comes here ten times a day (well, <i>sometimes</i> I do), one will end up missing items and stuff. Bring back the long legato line.

Going from the boudoir stile to a BDSM pedantic style might reflect your present infatuation, but for me it is a chock. As a queen myself, I like it (trill)very much, but is it really you? I guess it is, I only know you from your absolute fab conducting of this free speach site (with far too many people repeating their war horses over and over again, but that is what free speach is about. I have learnt to dismiss some of those soprano followers ranting (idiom?) over top notes) from an almost everyday follower from Sweden (eurocentric in likings, but still, NYC is my capital of the world) Hi La Cieca!

Oh, my Ruxton, my own!!!!!! It's really to adjust the size of the font with Windows (hold down the ctrl key and use the scroll button on the mouse to adjust the size). I lovelovelove the new site. And I especially appreciate the search engine, because now I can look up specific threads without have to go through page after page of older entries. Ah, Dean Jones.... he could've held me too close, and sat in my chair and made me aware of being alive. My fauxmance is back! Oh, my Ruxton, my own!!!!!!

Readable, upmarket, yet with the uniqueness that defines Parterre. Never thought of the Sydney opera as a hat tho! BTW...retreiving a new password from wordpress is annoying and not for the impatient and faint of heart. EXCELLENT!
