Host ,'Why We Fight'
[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.
You make me think of Chesterton saying tartly, "It is not true that Christianity has been tried and found wanting. It has been found difficult and left untried."
Hadn't heard that one. I knew a bunch of people in Sanctuary and other social justice groups who had bumper stickers reading "Christianity hasn't failed; it hasn't been tried yet," which I'm guessing was inspired by it.
Yay for the guy!
and SA looks very cute - I sent tthe link to the picture to matt so he can see.
Staying up til two in the morning, not the best idea if you automaticly wake up at 730.

I've heard the same thing said about Socialism. Haven't seen it on a bumper sticker, though.
Also? One of the reasons he waited a year to call is that he thought I had kids! HAR. (I talk about the 'boys' that I take to see boy movies and have been known to call Bartleby 'my little boy.') Bless his heart for plucking up the courage anyway.
BWAH!
brenda, yup, almost certainly a shortened version of his comment. He's also, unfortunately, responsible for that legion of Precious Moments-y bumperstickers that say "Angels can fly because they take themselves lightly!" Which, as a bumper sticker, is painfully gagworthy; in context, though, it's at the end of a lengthy paragraph about some extremely arcane theological issues, and, as the capper to that lengthy paragraph, it comes at you like a splash of cool water that makes your heart skip a beat with delight.
Unlike the bumper sticker, which is severely tooth-grindy (dunno about the rest of the US, but in the Bay Area suburbs, it's usually accompanied by five or six other hideously chipper stickers, a Support Our Troops ribbon and a W sticker, all of which just make it worse).
Ah, yes. The Cutesie Right Wing.
JZ, I've just eaten, bunky. Please to not make me heave. (Wish Braugher could call them up, be God, and say "Please don't be an idiot. Thank you." Because I think male God would sound like Andre...all due props to Morgan Freeman. Female God? Kathleen Turner or Christiane Amenpour.)
Female God? Kathleen Turner or Christiane Amenpour.
Ann Richards.
Or possibly Cate Blanchett-as-Galadriel.
Kathleen Turner as God. PERFECT.
I like my god(dess) with a little hottsie tottsie.
Ann Richards.
No wait. I'm voting for this.
Kathleen for vice-god(dess)
Ann Richards would be good, too. She didn't mind getting mooned, after all.
