[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.

"This bar smells like kerosene and stripper tears."

Not in the wrong at all. I am very blessed to have the Morgans as family, even the ones who piss me off. I'm very lucky to have had Mimi and Wayne as my grandparents and the people who gave me such a magical childhood (just now I was thinking of those trips down to the lake as getting to go off to Hogwarts).

I'm sorry you didn't get to say goodbye in a way that gave you comfort and peace. (((Aimee)))

Our wings are not tired.

I also thought Bradley Cooper was gay...

I thought someone here had paired him with SpyDaddy at one time. Not that that makes a real relationship with Esposito an issue. Best wishes to the cutiehead.

Always Anti-fascist!

About the small girl story, I'm not sure what to think of it. But I hate these stories, because people I hardly know are gonna expect me to be a bioethicist now...I'm much better at fake forensics, actually...armchair profiling, that kind of thing. On one hand, it seems like messing with nature's integrity, but nature didn't give a fuck about that when it made nine year old three month olds, did it? Huh. still can't take a side. Grandfathers: I wish I'd gotten to know Mom's dad better...wish he could have seen me grow up. We would have appreciated each other now.

Huh. On the same side again. It's like complex and stuff.

{{DJ}} {{Aimee}} I'm sorry for your losses, and I'm glad you had them in your lives. All my grandparents were gone before me. I'm trying to make sure my kids enjoy time with theirs.

Because books.

{{{Daisy Jane}}} Thank you so much for sharing your stories with us.

Aimee, I think the dress looks great -- the most I've ever attempted was a (hand-sewn) Christmas stocking. Be proud of you!

All my grandparents were gone before me. I'm trying to make sure my kids enjoy time with theirs.

My dad was explaining the boys over Christmas how lucky they are to have not only grandparents living (three, still) but two great-grandmothers. It's so uncommon these days, I think as people maybe have kids older. I know even when I was a kid, my friends were amazed I still had all four grandparents *and* a great-grandmother. Stephen barely remembers any of his grandparents -- I think his last remaining grandparent died when he was eight.

Shit's all sorts of different now.

Em has three greats right now.

Always Anti-fascist!

And I know there's gonna be some big Movement response, like with Schiavo and Kevorkian, and I will catch flak for not getting on board...I suppose that's how I got in the habit of ending most controversial discussions with "Keith Olbermann says..." Cause he kind of digs being hated.

Coding and Sleeping

My kids have a full complement of grandparents, four great-grandmothers, one great-grandfather, and one great-great-grandmother.

Gud's kids totally win!

Wait ... how'd they get *four* great-grandmothers?

If you're going through hell/keep on going/don't slow down/keep your fear from showing/you might be gone/'fore the devil even knows you're there

I had no greats, and I'm the only one of my siblings to have known all of my grandparents.
