Alias: I'm always pleased when Dixon is in an episode. Yay!
You never know if a girl's gonna say 'yes', or if she's gonna laugh in your face and pull out your still-beating heart and crush it into the ground with her heel.

sarameg, I thought she said it was a joke because when she was saying "No," (to Marshall), the guy thought it was in response to "So, you're pregnant..." which, obviously, she is .

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.
Real or No? Camel toads
HAHAHA!

Mostly lurking...
What's happening in Alias these days anyway? I've been too busy to watch, and now I'm afraid I'll never catch up.

Huh. She works for SD6.

She was saying it to Marshall, but it was a perfectly acceptable response to the czech's questions as well: "Are you preggers?" "(a)No[=yes in czech]", no need to say a joke to czech dude. In fact, saying it was a joke would confuse czdude more= blow cover.
They are in Mala Strana!

So this person found a letter in which her (let's say) godson talked about looking for something that she'd never heard of, so she assumed it was drugs? Wow. Talk about a one-track mind.
Does one really get camel toes in swimsuits?
Also, I've noticed that apparently the not-quite-camel-toe "smile" is no longer a fashion danger, but rather a goal. Who knew?

"Mister Spock is on his fanny, sir. Reports heavy damage."
I will gesture or say something to "give permission" for the argument to go to that next level of intensity
What sort of signals do you give?
Hand-gestures that they should continue; body-language of interest; I'll sometimes ask for a clarification that gets into minutiae, to show that they're just not listening to themselves talk for no reason. I'm not the sort who particulalry enjoys eye-contact, but I use it a lot when I'm trying to prove that I'm both interested and invested in a discussion.
In other news, I skipped Alias! Well, no big loss. You guys will warn me when Baby Assassin is scheduled to guest star again, right? Wossname, Sark.
I am making comfort food for dinner: mashed sweet potatoes with marshmallows melted on top. Best use of an orange vegetable evar!

sara,
your original post said that (a)no=no in Czech. That's why I was confused.
Edited because I just re-read the orignal post that confused me.
