Jesus year?
31? (That's how old Jesus was when he died, right?)
That's the thrill of living in the Hellmouth! There's a veritable cornucopia of fiends and devils and ghouls to engage ... Pardon me for finding the glass half-full.

Off-topic discussion. Wanna talk about corsets, duct tape, or physics? This is the place. Detailed discussion of any current-season TV must be whitefonted.

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

All sorrows can be borne if you put them into a story. Tell me a story.
Gunman in the building, people shot, looks like most of Chicago's police, fire and emergency medical staff are there. TV is saying it's been resolved, but it's gonna be a mess for a while. The response was massive, so whatever office was hit must've been big.

It helps that I went all medieval on their asses and am torching them with copying out of a book
Oh my god, I remember this trick. You just flashed me back to Mr. Saunder's fifth grade class.
OK, I can go home now, right?

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
I think Jesus was 33.

Yeah, 33--he was 30 when he was baptized, and had a three-year ministry (according to the gospels).

Oh yeah - that makes sense.
I guess that just like math knowledge, there's a half-life for Jesus knowledge if you don't use it....

IE 7 hates the Christopher Hitchens piece. Every time I open it, it gives me a message that it's encountered a problem and has to close, so I can't argue with him, this time. I'm nodding along with most of you, though.
It means that if Christopher Hitchens doesn't want to have sex with you, it doesn't matter whether or not you're funny.
Isn't he gay?

We just had Julia's (belated) birthday party. 10 little girls and I'm wiped out like I forged an icy river. They were very good, except for chasing Ben.
They're seven and eight years old.
Now I have to go check with people who'd know, to make sure my Narrator's okay.

Now let us crush something soft and watch it fountain blood. That is a girlish thing to want to do, yes?
IE 7 hates the Christopher Hitchens piece.
For once, I agree with IE's taste.

Cindy, your b-day story reminds me of listening to the radio this morning--the show hosts were commenting on their news guy's rather cranky attitude, and all they said was, "Five words--nine year old's birthday party."
Another request for Buffista opinions on the earrings I'm getting for the almost-14-y.o. niece for Christmas. I've decided to go for quantity instead of quality, as per y'alls suggestion from a few days ago, but I still want ones that don't look like my sister (who's into beading) might have made them. How about these?
The first pair since's she was born in March, the last because I always like getting Xmas earrings for the holidays, and the second because I think they're pretty and something a 14-y.o. might really like.
