ita, does the Jamaica Star always do interviews in patwa? Cool.
Wesley: We're going to bring Angelus in alive. Connor: No we're not. Gunn: I thought you said capturing him wasn't an option. Wesley: Changed my mind. Connor: Change it back.

Spike's Bitches 26: Damn right I'm impure!
[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.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.
Not so much that they do the interviews in patois -- but they're pretty good (as are most of the papers, I think) about reporting instead of translating the speaker's words. If you're Jamaican and can read, you can read that.
I mean, it's probably tidied, but not re-dressed.

Just looked over the estimate on the Jag. It's ridiculous! 16.5 hours labor for the dent. Just the dent! They also included taking off the door, repainting, sealer-coating,
owner's daughter's braces,
removing and installing mirror, etc., etc. Now I'm almost glad I had to report it to the ins. co., so they can fight this complete BS.
Brenda & Betsy - those are horrifying.
GC, niece & pup are sooo cute.
{{{KristinT}}} Good luck to you both in incredibly trying times.

Oh, Epic, that bites. Good that it's not coming out of your pocket ... well, not all of it, not all at once. Insurance is like betting, except I'm not sure you can win.

The niece and dog photo is damned funny, isn't it? I have it as my desktop at work and everyone's been really tickled by it. (Tickled? I think I've just officially become my mother.)

Yes, this! I feel like I'm finally getting a payout after all these years. Unfortunately, it means they're gonna up my ante in the next hand...
So, anyone know how we'd get the nice people at Cedco (purveyors of Buffy, Angel, and Spike calendars), to do a Firefly or Serenity calendar? Probably not the right thread, but I'm mostly just thinkin' out loud here...

oh joy! Oh Rapture ! I have a brain!
I think my cat has a cold. He was very sneezy and seems to have a runny nose. and I don't think he can smell his food.
