Reynolds, I'm a dangerous-minded man on a ship loaded with hurt. Now, why you got me chatting with your peons?

Spike's Bitches 29: That sure as hell wasn't in the brochure.  

[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.

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

I bet these were not JZ's only pair - just a favorite pair.

How much did you bet? Her only pair. But these were really the first pair of glasses she needed on a regular basis. But she's been wearing them since I found them, getting a whole new world of nuance out of Steven Colbert, I'm sure.

Luckily it was a "in concept" bet only....

Hey, you never answered my autograph question. Should I try for a personalized autograph, or just a regular one?

Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.

I lost my glasses recently (they're somewhere in my apartment). I'm wearing the pair I got 15 years ago - I last had new lenses put in them over ten years ago. But my prescription has not changed one bit since then, so they work fine. They're just heavier as they have glass lenses.

I look more rad than Lutheranism

But you have to basically make her wear a velcro suit and stick things on to her body to keep her from losing them. She's like the most absent minded professor parody you've ever seen.

I confess, I don't get this, in anyone. Because I never lose stuff like my glasses/keys/etc. -- I'm kind of control-freaky about it.

But it's been pointed out to me that being a control freak doesn't make be a better person than the absent-minded. (Not that I ever thought it did; just -- others have felt compelled to make *sure* I knew it.)

I lost my cell phone for an hour today. Until I called it and remembered I'd handed it to CJ to plug in for me. Since I hadn't plugged it in myself, I couldn't remember what happened to it.

Personalized would be cool. Mind the spelling though: two of everything. Emmett. Thanks!

It's something we have to negotiate because I'm like you. I almost never lose stuff. I know exactly where my keys, wallet, check book etc are at all times. But I do see that she tries to find ways to adapt to her tendency, from the keyhooks at the front door, to the multiple sets she's got squirreled away as backups.

No worries - as long as the player listens, we should be set. Now we just have to capture one...

"There are few hours in life more agreeable than the hour dedicated to the ceremony known as afternoon tea."

I lose everything, all the time. In this recent clean up I am finding stuff I forgot I even had because it has been lost for so long. Keys, cellphone, wallet, debit card (usually just in the wrong slot of my wallet), and purse are misplaced at least once a day.

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

Well, I haven't pulled the couch all the way out yet, and I suspect that once I vacuum in there tomorrow I'll find a family of wild racoons underneath.

Have a camera ready, 'kay?

Why did Darth Vader cross the road? To get to the Dark Side!

Sometimes I lose things, but mostly I'm the person who finds things for people.
