Yes. Men like sports. Men watch the action movie, they eat of the beef, and enjoy to look at the bosoms. A thousand years of avenging our wrongs and that's all you've learned?

[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.

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.

the cat is mad at me because I won't give him stinky food

Clearly he has been mistreated. He's starving, and has never, ever been feed decent food. He's gonna learn how to use the phone and call the animal cops on you. That's what my cats tell me, anyway. I tell them that if the animal cops come to check on them, they will smile, pet them, and maybe give me some tips to help Sammie trim off her extra ounces.

Thanks for the ~ma, all. He's apparently holding steady.

Please, please remember that you're not a failure at ALL. Sometimes, I wish you could see from the outside how much you've managed to accomplish and be as proud of you as I am.

Thanks.

You get to live. I was feeling a little guilty about that.

Oh, phew!

Any of our librarians around?

Edit: Nebbermind. I think I figured it out.

ita, I don't think you should be the archnemesis of any other buffista, unless you are wearing the dragon lady tights when you are doing so.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.

Hmm. Now it's shifted from impulse buy to mandate. I can handle that.

Poo. I thought I had an excuse not to do my own work.

Ok, Sparky. I came up with another question.

How do I track down a paper presented at a conference?

If it's not too old, it may be posted on the conference web site. Was it an annual conference of some group? If so, use them in as an author in a union catalog like World Cat or RLIN, maybe adding a keyword of "annual" or "proceedings". That will sometimes turn up the serial entry. If there's not an overarching group, you can try the author of the paper in one of those big databases, sometimes his/her home institution will add it to the collection, or someone will donate it to a library somewhere.

If you can find it, email me the info that you have and I can try and come up with it.

I look more rad than Lutheranism

Hmm. Now it's shifted from impulse buy to mandate. I can handle that.

Consider it a decree, if you will.

Bwah! It's in two libraries...an Australian and a British. Love trying to track this shit down sometimes.
