If anyone says anything negative about merc his bulldogs will go after them. All he has to do is let them off the chain and it's GRRRRRRRRRRRRR time!

Let's see. I've been here so long, it's hard to thin of any secrets not already known, but I'll try.

I am certified for both sky and SCUBA diving.

I once won the AAUW creative writing award for a poem that I plagarized directly from The Lord of the Rings. I've felt guilty ever since.

I was interviewed on Philly After Midnight, an episode watched by at least five people.

As of today, I am an officially transitioning transsexual. I answer to Pamela.

I would write more but I am going to allow everyone to recover their composure first.

I grew my beard in my first year of college, 8 months before I met Monster, and have never ever been clean shaven since.

I used to SCUBA when I was at school, but never kept it up on going to college, I have still have all my gear in the basement

Congratulations on your decision. May I ask, what led to the choice of the name Pamela? I've only ever known two transsexuals, and one of them called herself Pamela. I'm just wondering if there's some in-culture reference I'm missing.

A fair number of SCUBA divers here.

I did my open water dive in Long Island Sound to get SCUBA certified after taking a course in college. Only marine life I saw was a flounder. Lots of bottles and a couple tires too.

Then I did a dive in St. Thomas with my dad. It was fun, but overall, I prefer snorkeling. Less to think and worry about. And the dry tank air gave me nose bleeds both times I dove.

Thank you. I chose the name because I liked it and it was not a feminization of my birth name. I was torn between Pam and Tia and chose Pam because it was less exotic and I liked it better.

Now, you know THREE transsexuals!

There is no in-culture reference.

Pardon my ignorance, but didn't you just get married a couple years ago?

Hey, congrats Pamela.
I talk to a transitioning transexual in my supermarket.
I think she thought I was trustworthy because I had pink hair

She changed her uniform from trousers to skirts just last year, and is far happier to have it out in the open. Not meant in a rude way! She really makes an effort with her image - for a supermarket employee she's quite glamourous. I feel quite shabby next to her. Then again, I am! I usually shop without makeup and in my ubiquitous jogging bottoms.

I recently found out a woman I dated a few years back (when split from Mrs L) is now an escort and porn chick (not really a star).
