Oooh! I hadn't heard that, bon. I'll be interested to see those, as I like Liev Schriber, but I suspect the show will never again be what it once was.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

That's what I read, bon.

37 feels too fucking old to have those snitty fights with freaking parents.

Seriously, my mother's 61 and still doing it.

The feeling you get when your brain finally lets your heart get in its pants.

I'm fucking old, you know? Bear with me, especially if you're older than me. 37 feels too fucking old to have those snitty fights with freaking parents.

I feel the same way, ita, once you add four years. I know my mother isn't going to change, and what things are likely to set her off, and yet, I always end up arguing with her.

What is even happening?

Add two to ita, and subtract two from Lee, and it's the same here, too. What kills me is that my mother and her mother did not get on each others' nerves, so I always feel at fault.

Sometimes I think I might just move up to Vermont, open a bookstore or a vegan restaurant. Adam Schlesinger, z''l

Any puzzle people around? I'm nearly done -- but any hints for the four surrounding cocaine -- between ecstasy and opium ?

Also for the one between operating system and boot , and the two between Windows and dragons ?

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

I'm getting the pig!

Hil, for the one off of dragon, think of the word it's connected to and an insect with wings . With that one, you should be able to get the one between that and windows without a problem.

I'll have to think of good clues for the others.

The feeling you get when your brain finally lets your heart get in its pants.

Hil, for the first one, there is a drug combination that includes cocaine and another drug; its name is related to one of the border boxes. The name of the combination and the other drug are both in the puzzle. I am not sure what other one you mean.

For the second clues, the first combines boot, and a word that is part of an expression meaning someone who never pays for himself. For the other two, think of something that s Windows has a lot of, especially when a new version is first released. If you get that one, think of a combination of that and dragon.

eta: Or what Nicole said.
