'Our Mrs. Reynolds'
[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.
To-Do List for Next 5-10 Years
1. Write best-selling books
2. Contemplate Seattle housing market
3. Contemplate political direction of country, lack of universal healthcare, etc.
4. Move to Canada. Or England. Not that the housing market is any better in Vancouver or Victoria or London or Bath, but universal healthcare!
What's the square footage on that house? It's gorgeous. I like that they weren't afraid of color inside. I'm a big old sucker for Craftsman stuff, though.
Over 2000. Can't recall the exacts.
Emeline = the cute, in spite of scary Miracleman DNA.
What's really scary is that she looks SO MUCH LIKE HIM. Which boggles the mind, because I've seen MM in a dress, and he makes an UGLY woman, so how did Emma get so CUTE?
Wonder if it will magically turn into three $350k townhomes...
I'm guessing no, since these are small lots, and the zoning in this part of town is rough on anything other than mother-in-laws.

2600 sq. ft. It's 5 bedrooms and 1.75 baths. I think the rec room could be guest quarters, as it has a small kitchen and a bathroom with a shower.
I do like they way it's staged. I believe the couple selling it is in the business of buying/fixing up/selling homes. They've been working hard on it all month. I wish she had sent me some before pictures.
Hi Seany! See you soon too!
Okay, I've only got 5 minutes left before i have to go get food. Jilli is probably right this minute en route to the Neil Gaiman reading that's occuring at Msoft.

The quality of Aimee's DNA is easily able to shine through the thin veneer of the Joe DNA. It's gotta be, nothing else makes sense.
I get really snarly about the expectation that bible knowledge is a prerequisite for a major political career.
Here's the factbook breakdown of US religions: Protestant 52%, Roman Catholic 24%, Mormon 2%, Jewish 1%, Muslim 1%, other 10%, none 10% (2002 est.). Knowing the bible is part of knowing your electorate. Believing the bible shouldn't be.
I found the nearest $300,000 house to my area. [link]
I believe that God knows every one of us, and loves us -- even all the people who special-interest groups say God doesn't love. That includes gay people, Muslims, AND republicans.I think especially. I think He has a special concern for the much-loathed, scorned, abused and neglected. And I think that he is way more angry when W does something to hurt that homeless, HIV-positive, gay, divorced, addicted, single-parent welfare mother, than when she makes a crack about W.
And I said, “So you know what Acts is about?” And I saw sort of this blank thing go over his eyes and then sort of a quick look of panic and he said, “No.” And I was absolutely shocked. And I said, “Well your tax cut so heavily favors the rich, and Acts is so socialist almost.” And he said, “But, ah! Acts contains the Parable of the Talents.”
Oy. In the guy's defense, the Parable of the Talents also appears in the Gospel of Luke (although in the translation I've just checked with, it's 10 Minas, instead, but it's pretty much the same parable, complete with the 'well done, good and faithful servant'). Acts is written by the same author, and picks up where Luke leaves off. Still, there are no parables in Acts. Jesus had left the building.

I think it's part of my top ten list of things I hate about America.
Do you think it is a prerequisite, or do you think that when someone pretends to have the knowledge, we reject them when they don't?
