Oddly enough Sandy doesn’t agree with me. Shocking I know…
There’s No Sex in Your Violence
Don’t Go In There
Oh Grow Up
Just a note… I like like lawyers! Really!
I turn on the tube and what do I see
A whole lotta people cryin’ ‘Don’t blame me’
They point their crooked little fingers ar everybody else
Spend all their time feelin’ sorry for themselves
Victim of this, victim of that
Your momma’s too thin; your daddy’s too fat
Get over it
Get over it
All this whinin’ and cryin’ and pitchin’ a fit
Get over it, get over it
You say you haven’t been the same since you had your little crash
But you might feel better if I gave you some cash
The more I think about it, Old Billy was right
Let’s kill all the lawyers, kill ’em tonight
You don’t want to work, you want to live like a king
But the big, bad world doesn’t owe you a thing
Get over it
Get over it
If you don’t want to play, then you might as well split
Get over it, Get over it
It’s like going to confession every time I hear you speak
You’re makin’ the most of your losin’ streak
Some call it sick, but I call it weak
You drag it around like a ball and chain
You wallow in the guilt; you wallow in the pain
You wave it like a flag, you wear it like a crown
Got your mind in the gutter, bringin’ everybody down
Complain about the present and blame it on the past
I’d like to find your inner child and kick its little ass
Get over it
Get over it
All this bitchin’ and moanin’ and pitchin’ a fit
Get over it, get over it
Get over it
Get over it
It’s gotta stop sometime, so why don’t you quit
Get over it, get over it
I can tell you and Sandy are the best of friends (g)
Since I was quoted in the piece I won’t talk about violence but really, what’s next?
A rating system on:
Children in the book
1 – none
10 – holy shit, there are so many and they sing songs and wear cute little pantaloons!
The Virginess of the Heroine
1 – she’s so frigid she’s been married three times and still has a hymen
10 – seeeeeeeeelut!!! Not only has she done all her husbands but she’s hot for cock!
The Evilness of the Uh Evil Guy
1 – he makes a Disney villian look like an axe murderer
10 – he kicked a puppy (seriously any worse than that and you’re not reading a romance book)
*cough*
Just don’t mess with the sensuality ratings. Sure, they are subjective like all things but most people know the difference between a book with a few kisses and all out sex. Just saying. That’s logical 😉

You can tell karens she loveseses me so.
Cindy I agree with LLB. Sensuality ratings are not ‘needed’ they are there because we are talking romance novels.
And a large part of the romance is when they/if they hit the sheets. We were talking thrillers or mystery novels or serial killers… the things would be looking for would be different.
I’m sure they’ll also demand NC-17 ratings for books such as Valdez’s PASSION. Whatever…we are adults and I agree with you Sybil…man, you are one awesome chick!
Wow..thrillers with violence? Who would have thunk it?
Wait…there are sensuality ratings? Did I miss this?
