Gus: OK, Honesty call, ladies. Eight-minute date. The guy whips off his glasses and starts tying them in knots. What do you do with the remaining 450 seconds?
FayJay: Gus - is he tying them in knots with his tongue?

Sometimes I think I might just move up to Vermont, open a bookstore or a vegan restaurant. Adam Schlesinger, z''l
John H., in Natter (with a few paragraphs edited out):
If we could borrow ten thousand Australian, or five thousand American, or, as Nou pointed out, 43,750,000 VND, we could, after confirmation with Thuy, build a house on some land the family owns in Saigon.*
* Even more detail? For about $5,000 we can build a house made of wood, the $10,000 is to build "a house made out of stones" according to the family. I was all "I've heard this story before. You definitely don't want the one made out of straw..."

Now let us crush something soft and watch it fountain blood. That is a girlish thing to want to do, yes?
Daniel C. Jensen , on Oscar-night viewing choices:
Ok, so why would I want to watch the sequel to Dune?
If I wanted to see a story about politics and battles fought over a precious resource under the desert, children reviving the battles the parents fought and never finished, I would watch CNN.

askye: I never really worried about nuclear fallout and the world ending that way, being a Southern Baptist kid I worried that the Second Coming, I was always afraid that Jesus would return before I had a chance to grow up and do anything good, like have sex. I never was a very good Southern Baptist.

there is something to be said for the lyric and imperial attitude / believe that everything is for you until you discover that you are for it
Sophia Brooks -
Re the (TWoP) Ad:
I associate the word "always" with Reva and Josh on guiding Light, so now I am thinking of
Buffy/Angel going through all their trials and tribulations (death, memory loss, becoming Amish,
being cloned)
Anne W. - Let's hope they don't. We've seen DB in enough scary wigs that we don't need the horror of seeing him in full Amish regalia.
amych - We've seen DB in enough scary wigs that we don't need the horror of seeing him in full Amish regalia. Oh, but imagine the wacky hijinks that would ensue when he had a really, really good barnraising t wink, nudge and lost his soul. We'd know he was evil because he'd turn up wearing buttons!

Caroma and Betsy from Natter:
Caroma
We've had 43 presidents, we mackeral-snappers are about 1/4 of the population, and you can count the number of Catholic presidents on one finger. Hmmm. Of course, there's bunches of us as mayors, and governors, and on the Supreme Court, so...never mind! Forget I said anything! There is no Vatican conspiracy with the Whore of Babylon to bring about the advent of the Antichrist, what a silly thought!!

You gave us Scalia.
Some day, the rest of us *must* find some way to appropriately reward you.
