[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.

Back tattoos of the mother is that you are absolutely right - Ame

Robin - that is a thought we have tossed around. I can't afford to add classes to our budget right now, unfortunately.

We are on the brink of baseball season, which will take a bunch of his time and energy. Though I may need to put his participation on a contingency of his behaviour. I have resisted doing that in the past because it affects the team, but since the season hasn't started yet, it is an idea.

Thrive to spite them

MG - would your insurance cover therapy for him? A professional who could work with him on impulse control, etc.

Now let us crush something soft and watch it fountain blood. That is a girlish thing to want to do, yes?

My nephew had that problem and taking martial arts classes really helped him because he got to burn off energy and learn discipline.

I was just about to say that I've seen the same results with tiny fencers many times -- it's not just a matter of burning off energy, but of learning to use their aggression appropriately and in the right context rather than just suppressing it as if it didn't exist. Because we know how well that works...

The money for any kind of activity is always the kicker, of course.

Greece's financial crisis threatens to take down all of Western civilization - a civilization they themselves founded. A rather tragic irony - which is something they also invented. - Jon Stewart

Seany, did Alanis look preggers? (you know, if you're allowed to say so)

Did she do a handstand and then beep your nose? (Please say yes, even if she didn't)

Did you mention she has a bad grasp of the definition of "ironic"?

I hate tiny fencers. Much smaller target area. Bah.

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

MG, it might be counterproductive to make baseball contingent on behavior, since an organized physical activity like that will benefit him the most.

This is yet another argument for the superiority of sabre. Tiny sabrists can be popped over the head from above with impunity. And sometimes even with unseemly glee, depending on how bratty they are.

Shit's all sorts of different now.

Hold me closer, tiny fencer....

Heh. That is incredibly appealing, true.
