You're wrong about River. River's not on the ship. They didn't want her here, but she couldn't make herself leave. So she melted... Melted away. They didn't know she could do that, but she did.

Spike's Bitches 22: You've got Angel breath  

[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.

"Look, son, if it's good enough for Shirley Bassey, it's good enough for you."

Recovering this from the blur of commentary.

In a way, I think that being exposed to good, bawdy humor throughout one's life is probably the best way to gain a healthy attitude towards sex. Good bedroom farce can show that sex is fun, complicated, has consequences, etc. and make it seem like a natural part of life.

Loving Anne's suggestion that sex education be taught through Feydeau.

Holy hell, I meant Rabelais.

"Look, son, if it's good enough for Shirley Bassey, it's good enough for you."

No Baudelaire?

Dude, that's graduate work.

Also Rabelais (see above, re: edited post).

Yay, Daniel!

And for something completely different ... My boss is at flea's Looniversity nailing down details for a two-year-at-least project. I feel so espionage-y. Like I should have her tell him, "Your folks must work so hard, you should give them a raise."

If I only had a brain...

Baudelaire is all depressing and deathy. I don't want to make my kids into premature Goths.

Betsy, I edited. I didn't mean Baudelaire.

While I approve of Rabelais's sexual enthusiasm, I don't think he'll provide the same educational value that Anne is espousing. However, Rabelais educated children would have a highly sophisticated view about wiping their ass.

Heh. Fair point.

And the fastest-running ducks in the county.
