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.

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

I believe this sentiment changes daily.

Heh. It's the small victories. Like that I finally have time to clean my apartment and make it all pretty for you.

S to the A -- using they/them pronouns!

Wow. Someone knew about Berea without me having to tell them. Weird.

Off to more wet and cold...

Sure I went over to the Dark Side, but just to pick up a few things.

Seriously! This week, all I have to do is play with the software and figure out how it works, and then understand everything there is to know about potassium channels. That's not too much.

Love is stronger than death and harder than sorrow. Those who practice it are fierce like the light of stars traveling eons to pierce the night.

I'm in Cincinnati -- SA goes to school in Berea, which is fortunately only 2 hours away.
The only deviation from the road permitted by my dad on the trips from our home in Cleveland to his mother's home in panhandle Florida was our traditional stop at Berea College, and then for lunch at a little hole-in-the-wall restaurant (on the same block as The Daniel Boone Tavern IIRC) where we'd get the most amazing butterscotch pie. Some of my favorite childhood toys were gotten at Berea College.

Great. Now it's Teflon.

[link]

More than 50 years after DuPont started producing Teflon near this Ohio River town, federal officials are accusing the company of hiding information suggesting that a chemical used to make the popular stick- and stain-resistant coating might cause cancer, birth defects and other ailments.

Environmental regulators are particularly alarmed because scientists are finding perfluorooctanoic acid, or PFOA, in the blood of people worldwide, and it takes years for the chemical to leave the body. The U.S. Environmental Protection Agency reported last week that exposure even to low levels of PFOA could be harmful.

With virtually no government oversight, PFOA has been used since the early 1950s in the manufacture of non-stick cookware, rain-repellent clothing and hundreds of other products. The EPA says at this point there is no reason for consumers to stop using those items. But so many unresolved questions remain about PFOA that the agency is asking an outside panel of experts to assess the risks.

I think I'm going to take up smoking, mainlining bacon grease, and camping out in the Krispy Kreme lobby.

"This bar smells like kerosene and stripper tears."

Hasn't that gone around before?

Hey, just breathing the air can give you cancer.

So the smoking and bacon grease can be forgotten but not the Krispy Kremes. (I never said I was a saint.)

And then Ortus came and said "It's Ortin' time" and they all Orted off into the sunset

Things I did this weekend:

  • Ate a muffaletta
  • Avoided Bourbon Street
  • Checked out the F2F hotel
  • Neglected to give the restaurant manager at La Louisanne a Buffista business card (curses!)
  • Tried on a gorgeous Edwardian corset at Trashy Diva that fit me perfectly (and would have been bought on the spot were it not (a) $395 and (b) in the wrong colour) and had the nice saleslady write down all the pertinent info for me so that I can order one when I have money again, possibly to be picked up in NOLA during the F2F.
  • Ate dinner ten feet from Harry Shearer
  • Drank a lot of martinis.

How are you?
