Deb - yes, Hadrian's Wall! And I know how it's spelled, but I was trying to be stealth and not get caught posting when I should be typing up notes.

Spike's Bitches 21 Gunn Salute
[NAFDA] Spike-centric discussion. Lusty, lewd (only occasionally crude), risque (and frisque), bawdy (Oh, lawdy!), flirty ('cuz we're purty), raunchy talk inside. Caveat lector.

A dress should be tight enough to show you're a woman but loose enough to flee from zombies. — Ginger
Hmm. I may include that synopsis for my students. I think they'l appreciate it.
O' course, my mentor teacher probably wouldn't. But my university supervisor takes all her phone calls in her hot tub, with a glass of Scotch to hand, so she'd probably be ok with it.

It really doesn't matter. It's just an opinion. Don't worry about it. Not worth the hassle.
Ali, I honestly like Hardian better. It's like Eddie Izzard, saying that there really should have a Roman Emperor Fabulous.

What else besides ramen can you scoop? YOU CAN SCOOP THIS WORLD FROM DARKNESS!
Let me know how it goes over, Erin.

Hey! That's actually an idea -- maybe I can take some of the funnier episode recaps of shows my students watch as examples, and for some chapters, my students can try to some up with their own snarky recaps, In groups, maybe, or individual assignments

That's actually a fantastic idea, Erin. Because not only will they enjoy it, the funniest ones will be by the ones who really read and understood what they were reading, you know? And the students'll figure this out when you have them read them out loud to the class.

Yes, I think I will do this. But...I will need your help!
Funny recaps of what students watch. Probably The O.C...and, Jesus, what else? I don't know. I don't have TV. Dammit.

Well, they all probably watch Lost, right? Maybe? Snag some cleolinda action. I don't read the TWoP O.C. recaps, so I don't know whether they have much good material. But there's plenty of Buffy and Angel stuff. Maybe you could just ask them. Randomly ask them to list their favorite three TV shows right now, and then you'll know what're the most popular. Don't tell them what it's for...yet.

Really?! Did it give it indigestion?
Not so you'd notice, though it was the day after Good Friday, and I'm pretty sure the cathedral should have been fasting.
I caught the strap on the bronze handrail going up to the gift shop, and I couldn't back up fast enough because of the crowd. Pulled the anchor point right out of the seam of the bag, and nylon is hell to try and re-stitch.

Mostly lurking...
So, I need some Bitch advice. I just brought all of the food in from the car, except for the soda and prosecco (and I think one bottle of wine). Will they be ok in the car overnight, or will they freeze and explode? It's 38 degrees F right now and supposed to get down to 22 degrees F tonight.
