I did some additional proof-reading of my "Taking Care of Business" essay, and have been trying to submit the updated version. First I tried simply updating by clicking through the edit functions. Wouldn't work. Then I tried creating a new pdf and submitting that. Nope. Wouldn't let me. Kept getting this message:
"Only text, HTML and PDF files are allowed.
"Only text, HTML and PDF files are allowed.
Original works of a philosophical nature, viewing reality, existence, knowledge, values, reason, mind, and language."
Now, considering I was trying to submit a pdf document, that's a pretty weird message to be receiving. This has happened to me before. Can anyone make any suggestions as to what's happening, or what I'm doing wrong?
Thanks.

A Short End-Of-Year Message
People here at dA who know me also know that one of my major failings is wordiness. So I'm going to keep this short (spare me the guffaws...). I wish I was a confirmed optimist. I'm not. I'm a cynic. I'm told that's worse than being a pessimist. So while I work hard to bring pleasure to my family, friends, and those I feel close to in one way or another, in general my perspective is that life on earth is fast going to hell in a hand-basket. Sure, I march in the streets when I can, I send letters that at best get form-letters in reply. We support our causes as best we can. But the clouds continue to gather, don't they? And we still seem to be looking for ways to kill each other. Alas.... And yet, for those of you in dA-Land I have had personal contact with one way or another, once again I muster the courage to let you know that I wish you a new year of Peace, Joy, and Good Health. May your friendships expand and your financial circumstances improve. And for all those of you dA-ers
In Memoriam: Phyllis Coates, 2023
In Memoriam: Phyllis Coates, 2023 (The above studio cheesecake image dates from 1949.) (The above studio cheesecake image dates from 1952.) Phyllis Coates (b. Gypsie Ann Stell in 1927), who starred as the earliest Lois Lane in the TV series, The Adventures of Superman, from 1952-1953, and also as Lois in a few earlier serials, passed away on October 11 at the age of 96. (The above still is taken from Adventures of Superman, Season 1 (1952), Episode 4, “Mystery of the Broken Statues.”) In my imagination, I see Phyllis making her way to Superman’s “Fortress of Solitude,” where she rejoins her co-star George Reeves (“Superman”; d. 1959), as well as Christopher Reeve (“Superman”; 1995), Marlon Brando (“Jor-El”; d. 2004), Margot Kidder (“Lois Lane”; d.2018), and the many other actors who helped bring Superman to the big and small screens since Jerry Siegel and Joe Shuster first invented him in the 1930s. We will miss you, Phyllis. Thank you for everything. This post failed to
Tickling and Sexual Arousal - Myth or Reality?
I confess my relative ignorance about any serious physiological or even psycho-physiological research into the relationship between mild tickling, serious tickling ("tickle torture") and tickling with bondage. Therefore, I am forced to take with more than one grain of salt the assertion by some (and the assumption made by many artists exploring this theme) that tickling produces endorphins that get easily transferred to sexual arousal. Is this really true, or just a myth? If it actually occurs for some people, but not all people, then what's the percentage in each category, and how do we know? What's the evidence? How is it demonstrated empirically? I do understand that for some people (both ticklers and ticklees), Knismophilia (tickling fetish) is a powerful interpersonal reality and prelude to sexual activity and thus orgasm. But there doesn't seem to be any reliable physiological research on this topic, especially as it relates to fetishes per se and to the variability of fetishes
So tired of searching. Which pulp mag is it from?
