[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.

Always Anti-fascist!

Yeah, it's nothing but a small bit of choice, but those can be important in their way. Nine was...a little hard for me. I think that's when I first started to get that I wasn't gonna grow past the wheelchair thing, but at the same time I don't doubt that part of me thought I could be "legendary" too. After all, grown people were waiting for me to answer THEIR questions; I must be a genius. I wanted to be a telethon star, man. Mom said "No." then she said "Hell no." then she said "over my dead body." After that, I got the message. Now, I'm glad. A true subversive shouldn't be remembered for singing "Tomorrow" in her Sunday-go-to-meeting. Actually, though she was probably afraid I'd try to do stand-up...prove you didn't have to be in double digits to have a tight five...also, Mom would take ten years off her life to not bring attention on herself. In many ways, she doesn't understand me at all.

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

I'm with Brendon on wanting time parameters. I once had exact time and temperature settings figured out for a perfect grilled cheese, but I moved away from that stove, of course, and have never achieved such reproducible perfection since. Alas.

I picked my French Toast recipe based on teh fact that it says "3 minutes on a side or until golden brown" rather than just "until golden brown". Even if it's wrong, at least it's something to aim for.

I think it's time for cross-stitch.

All is well that ends in pizza.

Click here [link] for some science teaching filk...

for instance:

Glucose -- ah, sugar sugar --
You are my favorite fuel
From the blood-borne substrate pool.
Glucose -- monosaccharide sugar --
You're sweeter than a woman's kiss
'Cause I need you for glycolysis.

VW and Deena, I LOVE the cover!

Do we have an official deadline for the submissions?

Our wings are not tired.

Do we have an official deadline for the submissions?

Why invite stress?

Honestly, Laura, I work better with a deadline. Without one, I'm apt to put it off forever.

oh joy! Oh Rapture ! I have a brain!

Owen may be just like Dad, but oh my does he look like Cashmere in the bathtub picture. Cutie Patootie.

what I want to know is when Laura saw Cashmere in the bathtub. Or was I the only one that read it that way.

everyone made all the cute em comments -- so I'll just say awwwwww.

I never have shopped at Walmart - The one here is Scary dark. I have also given up Target and Sony for xmas. But scince my Target does not have a pharmacy, I don't know how long it will last. It is hard not to go in there. And I have a friend that might be getting a job there. And I think CA is one of the states where they have to make sure you get your perscription filled ( and there are two different places with 24 hour pharmacies now). There has been a lot of talk on my egroup about the Walmart movie and shopping there. My thought is that if I can't afford to shop anywhere else, than the amount I am spending or not spending there is not going to make a difference. One of the interesting things is that there are manufacturares that are no longer putting thier product in Walmart. Penefin Oil Finish is one. They are a Ca company and they are no longer selling to any big box stores.

And go go Emmett. I had a feeling once he was at the tryouts he would do well.
