"A bright little sparrow..."

"Straight flush to the red queen."

"Nothing is finer than living vicariously through this gem of a gal."

"I only ever had one intense internet crush, and it was on this brilliant glittering gypsy"

"I don't know her well yet, but pretty much the hottest girl on this site. period."

"an absolute doll, a most enjoyable guest, and possessor of exquisite taste in books and music. denver is a bit less bright without you. "

"When the Mess and I drop out, under the radar for a while, and only for a whille, a pick in her hands, an axe in mine-- we%u2019ll be tearing down the pre-designated walls of limitation they%u2019ve laid out for us%u2026 brick-by-brick, if necessary. I thought my time was up, my days were numbered%u2026 and out of nowhere a brave soul appears... and a pretty one too. In fact, this young lady made my toe shoot up through my boot!

But back to the point: I'm absolutely certain now that no one%u2019s an island. In keeping with a forgotten and rare tradition... seldom-seen, and seldom-understood or acknowledged, those who will have been lucky enough to have witnessed this will know that we bucked the odds, the Mess and me. A testament of faith at least, and a monument that screams defiance, at worst. Random and circumstancial? Well, certainly. But we have a plan. Nothing else matters. You can%u2019t fight what gives you life. Two stretched pennies, Alcatraz flashbacks, goodbye. We'll go where eagles dare."

"Redmess is an international artist-about-north-america, a whiskey and ice woman, a steel-belted glamour queen that makes down and dirty look haute couture. you'll keep far away from this smokin' pistol if you know what's good for you - she'll put your eye out without a flinch."

"When I first met Maggie she was sitting upside down, high, and staring out the window. I didn't know what to make of her then, but I am ever so thankful to have met her. She is one of the sweetest, funnest girls I know, and easily the most glamourous. If Texas can create creatures such as this, then it might not be such a bad place after all."

"She's hot, she's mighty sassy, and she likes to drink.

I can't think of much higher praise."
