It's like, in the middle of all this, I'm paranoid that you'll think I don't like poetry.

[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 were a wrong baby who grew up wrong. The wrong kind of wrong. It's better you hear it from a friend.

Hil does math for glamor and the fast life now, I remember when she did it to figure out how much she had to drink.

Laughing here. Hey, would it be wrong to make up business cards that list my job title as "idiot savant"?

My employer (Russell) got mentioned in Fortune magazine's list of the top 100 employers. Isn't that nice? And now they're installing TVs all over the office, which sounds great, but apparently they have their own channel of Russell-related news, called Russell TV. (I would love it if it's just a series of interviews with guys named Russell.) There are ads for it all around the office, including in every cubicle of the men's room. (And over the urinal, since apparently they believe none of us can aim that high.) I take a relief stop and find myself confronted with a sign announcing "You'll never see TV the same way again." After I mutter "What I do in here is my own business", I start wondering how to Photoshop a new sign saying "Smile! You're on Russell TV!"

The interesting thing is, I have my entire section behind me on this.

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

Love is stronger than death and harder than sorrow. Those who practice it are fierce like the light of stars traveling eons to pierce the night.

Actually Andi (Windsparrow) is the one who suggested it. I believe she feels that (a now older and more mature) Dawn would be a good match as an intern or a young doc that wouldn't take crap from House.

She would find his attempts at being scary amusing, given that 1. his snark is worse than his bite, and 2. she's probably a more accomplished single-stick fighter than he is, and therefore need not worry about anything he would do with the cane. She's smart enough that she'd hold her own in the team, as well as snark right back at House occasionally (and imagine the snark-fest when Giles drops in for a visit). I doubt breaking and entering in a good cause would make her so much as blink. Oh, yes, Dr. Summers belongs on House.

Suddenly, oh how I would love to see River get caught in some time-warp wormhole, and confront House. She'd have him in knots.

I am a legend on legs, is how I am. I'm working on a spreadsheet I've saved to the network with the title "No beer and no TV makes William go something something.xls", I have a date this Saturday at the Zoo, I just had my performance review and the visit to America is a go, and Bec sent me colourful turtles to strew about my computer.

Next week I'll be having a discussion about what I need to become a senior consultant. I'm thinking a work ethic might be on the list. Oh, and the guy on the Assumptions team that I get to order around told me today that I'm a sick man. Result!

I'm sayin'! And I seem to have cemented my reputation at work as an eccentric, so now I can do whatever the hell I want and no one says boo! Did you know tomorrow is bathrobe day? I'm betting they don't either!
