Zoe: Preacher, don't the Bible have some pretty specific things to say about killing? Book: Quite specific. It is, however, somewhat fuzzier on the subject of kneecaps.

I lived in the UK for 7 months, and have been back for varying lengths of time several times since then. I'm hosed.

Well. New email in my inbox.

Tornado warning for northern Baltimore County (I'm about 15 or so miles south of the area in question-Shawan/Butler.) Warning means DUCK.

Weird. I guess work is notifying all of us (15 miles AWAY) in case someone is telecommuting from up there.

I am a woman of various inclinations and only some of the time are they to burn everything down in frustration

Yeah, we're universal recipients, my sister is a universal donor (for rh positive). Sorry I got you and your sister reversed, Kathy, I had it right in my head, but my fingers messed it up.

A dress should be tight enough to show you're a woman but loose enough to flee from zombies. — Ginger

Interesting. I don't even know what type of blood I have. I feel like it would be a good idea, but even thinking of it is making me slightly queasy.

Now, if a family member or a friend needed it, I would bite the bullet, but as is, I just...bleargh.

That man was going to shank me. Over an omelette. Two eggs and a slice of government cheese. Is that what my life is worth?

I used to give regularly until they added something about CJD that prevents me from giving now. Needles don't bother me in the least. A couple of years ago, I had to go to the doctor every morning before work for blood tests for about 8 weeks. I quickly got over any squick I may have had about needles then.

We're very stretchy. - Connie Neil

No problem. My own mother can't keep us straight at times (I'm "Kr--athy", and she's "Ka-Kris"), so I definitely don't expect anyone else to! My grandma had it worse, what with 24 grandchildren who seemed to have been born in batches. There were five boys born within a few years of each other, including my brother, so when Gramma would see him, she'd run through the list before finally getting it right. ("Pat? Jim? Tim? Joe? Kip--finally!")

See, I had no problem giving my old kitty Solomon his diabetes shots, but they were subcutaneous and I didn't SEE the needle go in -- fur obscured it.

I can't watch needles on TV. I have to hide my eyes. Scapels, sure. Surgery, blood, guts, no prob.

Teeny needle -- GAH

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

Don't get me started on the blood donation restrictions.

It's five thousand for kissing, ten thousand for snuggling... End of list.

I hadn't heard they changed their Europe visit guidelines. Now I can resent the ARC a little less, although I don't know if NY has changed its rules.
