New to Angel, Rick looks for backstory in Angel NAFDA...
Plei:
First, TNT will be showing the show starting this fall
Rick:
Thanks, this is good timing. I'll have a friend with cable tape it for me.
I'm not mature enough to have cable TV. I would watch it
Nutty:
You ever have that weird feeling where you feel obliged to do something like make your neighbor cookies, but you also want to put arsenic on said cookies?
Hecubus:
Why did I buy my son a joy buzzer? Why? This was not a good idea.
In Natter 14, talk turn to the California recall ballot/election
Betsy HP:
Furthermore, there's a rumor that Arianna Huffington is considering running in the recall election. Whoo-bloody hoo!
brenda:
Oh, that would be so fabulous if Arianna ran. And if she was one of the only lefties to appear on the ballot, the flood of conservative candidates might drown each other out.
Arianna for governor!
(Now wishing I lived in California.)
Hec:
Arianna for governor!
No fucking way. I don't care how much she repents. She ran Michael Huffington's asstastic campaign as his wife/beard. Why anybody would believe she has any other agenda except to be near power I can't imagine.
Plei:
Went to Africa. Got a soul.
Oldest story in the book.
In Angel Spoilage Lite (casting spoilery):
Burrell: Okay, I have no problems with giving away the casting except that I think they are overselling the Spike factor.
Daniel C. Jensen: Yeah, I think it should be called Angel: The First TV Show for Men.
Damn you, wee Cindy! You win again.
I was coming over here to COMM that grumble grumble
Nutty, in FF: R,W+E:
I have read stories where the pairing was irrelevant due to plot choices, where authors have warned that there was no salient pairing. This drives me bananas, because I never warn people that I do not drive a tank. I just show up, not driving a tank, and assume people will clue in and live with it.
deborah grabien:
You wouldn't know it by me; I was taught to say precisely what I thought and I always do. My father's take on it was "they're going to try and sit on your because you're a girl, so tell them to piss off and say it loud and say it very clearly, so that there's no possibility of misunderstanding later." So I do, and sometimes I get in trouble, but the nice thing about being raised to be this confident? I stand by what I say, unless I say something really stupid and someone shows me why and how it's stupid. Then I say "wow, I'm a moron, dude, I missed that one entirely."
But I don't do passive aggressive. Generally? Almost completely aggressive. As are most of the women in my family.
Ellen S, in Natter:
There a town called "Dream Lover" off the Pennsylvania Turnpike going west. I always wanted to get off, but it said no reentry. To much commitment for me.
Steph in Natter:
And yet it sparked scores of vacation promotional slogans from us: Come vacation in Mianus! Mianus is lovely this time of year! So many people have visited Mianus -- why haven't you? etc.
