We need to take seven...
'War Stories'
Bureaucracy 1: Like Kafka, Only Funnier
A thread to discuss naming threads, board policy, new thread suggestions, and anything else that has to do with board administration and maintenance. Guaranteed to include lively debate and polls. Natter discouraged, but not deleted.

We need Natter 7, and we might take yours.
As much as I like this (and I do), I also like the idea of Natter threads having Natter-quotes for titles.
I have no ideas of my own to contribute, however, so I'm not really helping, I'm afraid.
Do snakes have tails?
It's the portion of the body past the anal slit -- a distinction that is really only of interest to herpetologists, who do things like search the skeleton for evidence of vestigial limbs and stuff like that. Snake anatomy is actually pretty fascinating, what with lungs and liver and other guts being stretched out through the body.
Jimi - How would you like the Dawn section changed? Replace "appears to be" with "is"?
I just posted this in the Buffy thread, and I can't believe it never occured to me before.
You can get episodes of almost any show you like off of newsgroups and/or Grokster. I do this regularly, and I would be happy to instruct anyone who would like to do so. But then I figured I better post in here and ask if that is ok.
Schmoker, the best place to post downloading information is probably Buffistechnology -- there's been some discussion there of downloading from BitTorrent, but more sources are always welcome (not that we'd ever do such a thing).
OKay, here's the tentative set of new Buffy Mythology FAQ questions:
- How do you get to be a slayer?
- Why are there two slayers right now?
- Why wasn't another slayer called after Buffy died in The Gift?
- Whatever happened to Oz? Drusilla? Harmony? Joyce? Riley? Hank Summers?
- Why is Dawn just starting high school in S7 when she was 14 in S5?
- Is Spike's sire Drusilla, or Angel?
- How old is Spike?
- How old is Angel?
- Didn't the same actress play Halfrek and Cecily? What's the connection between them?
- Why did Spike get his soul at the end of S6? Didn't he want his chip out?
- How come Buffy could close the portal at the end of S5?
- When is Buffy's birthday? Wasn't it different in S1?
- How did Angel return from the Hell dimension after S2?
- Did Buffy actually kill Dracula?
- What happened to Whistler?
- What's with demons and kittens?
- Who is Dead Guy Larry?
- Who is the Ripper?
I don't know the answers to numbers 14 or 15
Questions from the current FAQ I'd like to copy over:
- James Marsters isn't English?
- Alexis Denisof isn't English?
- Oh, no, what about Anthony Stewart Head?
- Is that at least really Giles singing?
- What's up with the complexity of Faith?
- Who are Fuffy and Baith?
- Who is Dawn? (The answer to this Q could probably use a rewrite/condensing. Who wants to volunteer?)
- How does someone become a vampire?
- If a vampire doesn't need to eat or drink for sustenance, why do they? If a vampire doesn't need to breathe, why can they smoke?
- If vampires don't have a heartbeat or blood pressure, how do they achieve an erection?
- Why can I see Angel/Spike/Drusilla/Darla breathing? (Query: Could we combine these three?)
- Um, excuse me, it's Season 6. Where the hell does Giles think he's going?!?
Questions, comments, additions, or deletions?
Moved from current FAQ: What's 5x5?
Thanks, ita. I wasn't sure where vocabulary ended and mythology started on some things.
Is that at least really Giles singing?
Maybe rewrite this one to cover all of them singing in OMWF?
