Illyria: We cling to what is gone. Is there anything in this life but grief? Wesley: There's love. There's hope...for some. There's hope that you'll find something worthy...that your life will lead you to some joy...that after everything...you can still be surprised. Illyria: Is that enough? Is that enough to live on?

[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.

I wish I could just go somewhere to get flensed but none of the whaling ships near me take Medicare.

Dang. I posted when the thread was young and then forgot that I need to *subscribe*.

My good thoughts are winging to those various Buffistas and family in need of them.

The feeling you get when your brain finally lets your heart get in its pants.

I have to go to the firm Christmas Party in about an hour and a half.

I'm not sure I want to.

"Look, son, if it's good enough for Shirley Bassey, it's good enough for you."

I'm not sure I want to.

Make an appearance. Grab a glass of champagne. Get some shrimp. Do a circuit and exit with a dessert. Ten minutes tops.

That sounds like a very good plan.

I think I shall adopt it, and then call it George.

Bob's learned to live with tragedy, but he knows that this tragedy is one that won't ever leave him or get better.

Maidengurl, I'm sorry for what you're going through with CJ
This. I meant to say something earlier but I checked my email and mememeandmyfamily worry ensued.

I hope that CJ is suitably chastened by the lack of toys and this will be a learning experience for him so neither of you need go through it again.

Aimee, I am so sorry about B & E's sad and tragic news. My thoughts are with them.

Thank you. And hi Spidra!

Excellent idea!

And then take George out for a glass of bubbly, some shrimps and a quick tour about the room before taking George home with a purloined dessert. Lucky George.

I'm probably the last person in America to know George=boyfriend, right?

I think it's the bunny from Of Mice and Men. Much parodied on Bugs Bunny, which is how most of us got our high culture infusions.

Hey. New board.

Not the bunny, just the friend of the big guy (if I recall correctly.) The bunny was unnamed. Maybe.

It's been a while. NOT my favorite Steinbeck work.

I know about that...honest. But Pelecanos seems to find it funny that in D.C. his name is generic for boyfriend, as in : "Hey, baby..."

"I don't *think* so."

"Why? You gotta George?"
