ILsa,

Which one came first?

“The Ultimate” or the one with the title I can’t read because of the words that don’t exist in my vocabulary?

If “The Ultimate” proceeds the other one, then what is your understanding of the word “ultimate”?

Of course not. Nobody ever looks “bad” in an artistic masterpiede. You seem to have no understanding of artistic freedom.

I think we are definitely hijacking this thread. So maybe we better put an end on that. Anyway: I need to do so. We live a few timezones apart.

Hmmm… I’ll have to work harder on my sanctimonious tone; it doesn’t appear to be working very well. I refuse to fuck assholes, however.

As to gender-bending… well, look who’s talking! 😛[Here are my avatars](http://community.webshots.com/photo/782975/784355).

It is because of my irresistable charm and shining personality burning through PC screens when I go out in cyberspace.  
Since this is something I was born with, I am completely innocent to what it causes.
