[Ciao Bella]

Dear devs, a couple of days ago I foolishly posted that Ninja is a member of this board...I should not have done that. Whilst I have no clue as to who he is, and certainly he deserves all the anonimity, I should not have done what I did. I posted in a fit of excitement that I found a real live person on youtube who coincidentally was a member of PD as well ... though I didn't realize it until he told me.

So I will go back to restraining myself from immediately posting anything, before I offend anyone else.

aw, grizabella... i think we have all put our foot in our mouths from time to time. it's a crappy feeling.

that being said, as devs i know we can all appreciate the importance of anonymity in certain circumstances in order to be free about ourselves.

i find random deletion of posts annoying, but i think this situation may warrant an editing job if it makes the people involved feel more comfortable. if we are in agreement, we could all go back and edit the parts of our previous posts that elude to paraplegicninja's membership here.

i certainly wouldn't want something like this to prevent him from making more of his great videos for us!!!

I'm game for a mass deletion in order to protect anonymity.

Done... deleted except for my and bananas posts about deleting.

Whoops... EDITING... dolly said editing. I got all excited thinking that I had permission to delete.

[canadiandev]

Whoa, finally checked out a couple of videos. He's been taking notes! Perfect balance of tease and action. Love the female-friendly soft lighting. :-)

I agree that we should delete anything incriminating.

[faith]

What a sweet way to start my day. Very nice.

[Rayne]

Wowow, thanks for posting Kisha.

As far as anonymity goes, it's possible to find out who he is with the information given to you... that's all I'll say.

I am thinking that our friend Kisha/Kishka or whoever started this thread might be the "ninja" under a different name....

i agree with AB. shes always seemed like a smart lady in the past, and i think now is no different. althougth i probably wouldnt have even thought that until she said something lol I think hes enjoying the attention and doesnt mind that people know its him, and if he really wanted to be anonymous he would have covered his tatoos. i wonder if he did stuff like this all along and we just never knew or if its only since hes not with his girlfriend. if hes been doing it all along i want to see the other videos lol!!!

As usual I am late to this party...strange love/hate relationship with PD just now...

I am gobsmacked by the Paraplegic Ninja videos. What can I say that would be remotely appropriate? Probably best for me not to watch at all! Damn...

[Dee Dee]

Well, kudos to Mr. Paraplegic Ninja and his possible aliases for making those videos .

Not too bad either (you may have seen this already):

one of my favourite channels on youtube (besides our ninja's, of course) is this guy's. y'all have probably happened upon it yourselves...

the latest video is of him doing chores around his home. c'mon. is that a dev's fantasy or what? lol a good looking para who likes to clean, vacuum, do laundry, iron....!

These videos are indeed awesome in their own rights, and certainly not lacking in the sexy department. However, I just wanted to share my thoughts on one particular vid of Fast Teddy...and that's the one about how he became paralyzed.

Seeing him after the accident, with the camera focusing on his newly-operated back, and his first transfer to a chair with the help of nurses and therapists, gave me such an overwhelming feeling I can't describe. I guess because I'd met my partner way after his accident, I don't have a first-hand idea of what he must have gone through. Not that I particularly enjoyed seeing Fast Teddy all morphined-out and needing all that assistance transferring, but it was such an eye-opener.

I suppose we don't think about why our favorite guys are in chairs, but when we really think about it...it feels like a huge kick in the gut, when we face the reality. I was nearly in tears when I saw that video, and a huge regret that I wasn't in his life when that awful accident happened. Then again, we wouldn't have met if he never had that accident anyway...I suppose what I'm trying to say is seeing someone go through what my partner has gone through makes me appreciate my partner even more, for all the pain and hardship that he has had to contend with after the accident. And without sounding cliched or patronizing, it makes me respect him and others in the same situation, even more. I think I will be watching that particular vid just to get a dose of reality (esp. when I want to throw him off a cliff )

[Claire]

Wow, I was a fan of Fast Eddy back when he had just one video out, didn't realize he had all those others! Yes, he is hot indeed.

I just watched the "how I became paralyzed" video.
It was, indeed, eye-opening and very difficult to watch. NOT a twinge of devo admiration, either. I got no pleasure from that.

What hit me the most I think was when he asked how much the bed cost. Already he was thinking of how much adapting his environment was going to cost him...and the PT telling him "you're not going to need a bed like that". It was like tacit admission by both of them that this is permanent. I just can't imagine going through that. Of course, he did, and lots of people do, and he turned into the kind of para that we all know and love, who grabs life by the balls and sitskis, etc. But how long did it take to get there? What was that transition like?

Edited to add: Wow - he has a French accent and he even uses cologne - it doesn´t get much better than that! .
