[NAFDA] "There will be an occasional happy, so that it might be crushed under the boot of the writer." From Zorro to Angel (including Wonderfalls and The Inside), this is where Buffistas come to anoint themselves in the bloodbath.

"When I look at people that I would like to feel have been a mentor or an inspiring kind of archetype of what I'd love to see my career eventually be mentioned as a footnote for in the same paragraph, it would be, like, Bowie." ~Trent Reznor

Ornery little critters too. My uncle's had at least two lhasa apsos in the last couple decades, and they're sweet and playful but stubborn as all get out. Fortunately, fluffy makes better.

"This bar smells like kerosene and stripper tears."

My boss has one at the office- because he won't be left alone- 14 years old. Very bossy and stubborn. Also very sweet and made me feel better this morning.

What else besides ramen can you scoop? YOU CAN SCOOP THIS WORLD FROM DARKNESS!

She told a story about research up at UCSF on pain tolerance. The scientist determined beagles would be perfect for their study, so they paid umptyjillion dollars for special lab animal beagles. The crate arrived, the scientists all looked down into their crate full of beagle puppies and went, "Uh...Can we have a meeting. I don't think I can do a pain tolerance study on beagles and look myself in the mirror." All eight puppies wound up going home with the scientists.

I've heard that story before. In fact, maybe it was JZ who told it.

We are Buffistas. This isn't our first apocalypse. -- Pix

I grew up with a lhasa apso in the house. She was basically a cat, except for her fondness for dirty underwear, which she would drag down into the living room and leave on the floor for anyone to find.

Embrace the idea that we are the leaders we've been looking for. Grace Lee Boggs

Note to self: Stick with cats, instead of lhasa apsos, to avoid that embarrassing underwear thing. Beagles may still be ok.

Who? moi??

I will NOT tell the story of my cat who happily brought a used..... to display to my visitors.

She had Never Ever shown any interest before.

Perhaps she was impersonating a dog?

Maybe... Her name was Fang.

"You see? THAT's what they want. Love, and a bit with a dog."

There's a Wonderfalls DVD flyer enclosed in the Buffy S7 boxed set. Made me do the happy dance.
