Hmm. Suddenly realized Evacuation Day is a Massachusetts joke, and not generally accessible.
Fred: So you don't worry that it's possible for someone to send out a biological or electronic trigger that effectively overrides your own sense of ideals and values and replaces them with an alternative coercive agenda that reduces you to a mindless meat puppet? Shopkeeper: Wow. People used to think that I was paranoid.

[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.

I got it, Em. It's not even a full-scale MA joke, though, I think it's just Suffolk County, or Boston proper, or something. Very local.
Hola peeps! I'm working from home! It sucks!

Our wings are not tired.
Ah, not from Boston and previously unaware of Evacuation Day. Now that I have learned something today I can just be a slug, right?
Oh, MIL has arrived. Later....

What is even happening?
Suffolk County's the only one that benefits, but this lifelong Middlesex girl still liked your joke, Emily! Universality be darned.

And then Ortus came and said "It's Ortin' time" and they all Orted off into the sunset
Laura, for your son's green tips, the easiest way to go might be spray-on temporary haircolor. They're cheap, and wash out easily. (And this time of year, I imagine green is pretty easy to find.)

Yeah, I've only heard of Evacuation Day becuase of Boston-area buffistas.
Thanks, Steph--it came back up shortly thereafter. I've now posted all about my aggravation. Whew.
The other day I had very nice dreams, and mostly remembered them when I woke up. Last night, I had interesting dreams, but I don't remember them now. I wish I remembered them better.

I sure hope it's Stewie, or maybe Brian. I don't think Peter is right for the job.
