[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

-t, is it early in the season to have a named storm?

(I can never remember when hurrican season starts -- but tornado season starts in March - more or less.)

I'm getting the pig!

Application ~ma, sj!

I seem to be under consideration for an underwriting position. I'm not sure how I feel about that.

I'ma give a tiny yay, just in case, -t.

I just got up from a nap, went to fix myself some lunch, and found Toto's food dish (and the area around it) swarming with ants.

Blech. Ants = teh nast. Annoying little bastards.

What else besides ramen can you scoop? YOU CAN SCOOP THIS WORLD FROM DARKNESS!

Did you find them before or after you took a bite? Because if it's before, I can top that story...

Most definitely before. I poured the pasta into the skillet and, hey, ANTS! There goes my dinner. Bye bye, chicken breast that I was proud of cooking.

JZ: EW.

sj, lots of application ~ma.

My DH and I are not in agreement about ants. He likes to politely put them outside and I prefer to visit death upon them. We horrify each other with our approaches.

I just want to say, Perkins ROCKS! She did part of my work for me last night and it was all waiting for me this morning so I could zap it off to the professor and look good.

In not so great job news, there seems to have been, yet again, behind-the-scenes action that favors the Big Boss' best friend. It is particularly annoying since I asked the Big Boss yesterday to make a phone call for me that would magically help me arrange for classroom scheduling next semester and she refused.

Heh, JZ, your cereal story is almost as bad as mine. On the plus side, ants rather than earwigs (which I find appallingly nasty critters); on the minus, among other things, the formic acid in ants makes them taste REALLY nasty, even with a sugar coated cereal. Yes, that's how I noticed them.

I *shudder* to think what my reaction would have been if they had been earwigs.

That man was going to shank me. Over an omelette. Two eggs and a slice of government cheese. Is that what my life is worth?

-t, is it early in the season to have a named storm?

Not really. Late April/early May for hurricanes.

Hurricane season starts on June 1. This is the second earliest hurricane on record, one being a couple days earlier in like 1966.

I know about Hurricane season because I watch the Weather Channel and they've been pitching Hurrican Week for ages. I know about the earliest thing 'cause it was in the Metro this morning.

I am a woman of various inclinations and only some of the time are they to burn everything down in frustration

Not really early, sumi, hurricane season starts June 1. Just an affront to my carefully constructed denial. I would feel better if I knew that the levees were repaired, or if anyone I knew had finished rebuilding and none of them were still in trailers.

Or if I could get them all to come stay with me until the fall. I could put up tents in the backyard, it'd be fine.

I didn't know tornados had a season. How late does it go?
