I have a sleeping baby. Unfortunately, I also have grading here, so I know how I'm spending my Friday night.
Getting some sleep and doing the grading later this weekend? Before you drop dead from exhaustion?
Gwen: Demon, OK? The whole nine—cloven feet and horns and teeth. He wasn't wearing lamé though. Lorne: Yeah, the evil ones can't pull it off. It gets camp.

Spike's Bitches 28: For the Safety of Puppies...and Christmas!
[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.

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

Trust my rage
I just watched a US slalom skier ski while wearing a tiara. She's a Bitch and she just doesn't know it.

Heh, I saw that Stephanie. I was tempted to tell her to use swords for her ski poles, then she could be a compleat Bitch.

Yes! I was so thrilled when I saw her. And the announcers getting all sniffy about it. One of her teammates was wearing a long string of what looked like Mardi Gras beads wrapped around her neck. They're not skiing all that well, but I love them.
Apparently another skater (not sure if American) wanted to put tiger ears on her helmet but regulations forbid it. The announcers thought such things were a distraction for a serious Olympian. But I guess Bode Miller gets an exception--except we've seen how he's been skiing.

BTW, the tiara and the necklace both look like the ladies went shopping and bought a set of toy jewelry and split it between themselves.

First, gotta say I love the tiara-wearing skiier.
Second...
So there we were, driving along the interchange in the carpool lane between the 110 and the 105, and I commented about how those really high overpasses freak me out. This seemingly innocuous comment led to a discussion about how old the interchange was, which led to the following:
ND: I know how old...when was Speed filmed?
Me: Speed? The movie?
ND: Yeah. What was it, early 90's? It was then, because they filmed that scene where the bus jumps on the 105 before it was opened. Except they filmed it after it was completed—they had to CGI the middle out.
Me: How do you KNOW these things? Do you know how many useful facts could occupy those brain cells?
ND: What? It's my own personal timeline. Pop culture dating. It's like carbon dating only with the Brady Bunch.

Why did Darth Vader cross the road? To get to the Dark Side!
ND & I both have the same associations with the movie Speed. heh.
Oy vey. Isaac woke himself up crying. Luckily he went back down quickly.
