BUt am keeping up with printing out each bit as it comes (I probably owe my mother a print cartridge--am at 120 plus).
*G* Oh dear. Oh, btw, there's been a teeny change to one of the older entries, so I guess I owe you a couple sheets of paper. (The second last paragraph in Sean's entry here.) Had to track down and eradicate the only real inconsistency so far, which is pretty good for an unfolding WIP, I believe.

(though is there some ref. in "super sekrit" I should know).
Er... Remember when savageseraph and I told you about the "fans" who not only believe that Dom and Elijah are dating in RL (which is fine on its own), but have gone further to believe that PR is keeping them from coming out, and as a result they have been sending colour-coded signals/shout-outs via clothing and other devices to a small message board of fans in an effort to tell them they appreciate their support of their relationship and affirm that they desperately want to come out to the public? Yeah. There's 3 separate references to "the tinhats," as they're lovingly called by detractors, in Ted's column --

1. all sorts of shades of shout-out blue and purple.
2. My super sekrit sources
3. Could it be he was hauling ass, full-throttle down the North Isle?

#1. Refers to a multiple of times in which the tinhats have determined that the boys have worn specific clothing in specific colours as a "shout-out."

#2. Is a phrase often used at dl_anon, the main gathering place of people pissed off/amused by the whole mess, when one of the tinhats insists that they KNOW THINGS because some special insider whose identity they cannot reveal (and therefore whose authority/proof cannot be verified) TOLD THEM SO, and therefore it's the truth and should be accepted as such, no questions asked.

#3. Is a mangling of a phrase one of the Domlijah4eva!!!!11! (tinhats) bunch posted at Data Lounge Refugees (main RL DM/EW board). The original line was something about DM and EW's sex life (I'd have to go trawling for the original context) that said they'd rather be going "ass full throttle down the produce isle" (yeah, "isle," not "aisle" -- that's what they typed O_o) than something else -- probably than spending time with Sean A or something, since he's a usual target as the Evil against the OneTwuLuv.

Of course, I chose Ted C. simply because he posts a ridiculous number of blind items that the tinhats often interpret as proof that Dom and Elijah are gay and dating. Given that he's a gossip columnist (of the worst kind), you wonder why anyone ever gives him any authority on any matter. Hence the total screwing up of Sean's hobbies.

*G* As usual, thanks so much for the lovely comments! Always enjoy them.
