No. You're missing the point. The design of the thing is functional. The plan is not to shoot you. The plan is to get the girl. If there's no girl, then the plan, well, is like the room.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

Ack, beth, breathing is indeed A Good Thing. You keep that up.

So come, my friends, be not afraid/We are so lightly here/It is in love that we are made; In love we disappear

I'm looking for a term that's been teasing around the edges of my brain, refusing to come into the light so I can decide if it's right for a scene I'm working on. It's a horsey term, something about a line breeding true, only more colorful.

Sorry for the delay--I was down at my folks' place.

Stamps his get is a term used to describe studs who sire foals with a particular sire-like look. I don't know how long the term's been 'round, though.

The wide universe is the ocean I travel, and the earth is my blue boat home

No problem. I've been watching the game and reading since I posted anyway. The book (In the Prince's Bed, by Sabrina Jeffries) is going much better than the game, despite the latter's promising beginning.

Anyway, "stamps his get" is exactly what I was looking for, and I might just use it without worrying overmuch about its origin date. It sounds like it could be said in 1811--it's not like he'd be saying, "OK, dude, whatEVAH."

Here's my requisite lame first post.

Mostly skipped, but did catch teaspoon state, which is perfect.

Also, I think by board time I'm still on the right date for...

Happy Birthday, Stephanie!

And, hi, Eddie. Welcome.

Life moves pretty fast. You don't stop and look around once in a while, you could miss it.

Hiya, Eddie!

See? I gave everybody here an opportunity to tell me what a bad person I am and nobody did, because I fuckin' rule.

Welcome, Eddie, and congratulations upon your very pretty numberslutty ID#.
