thanks to everyone for the birthday wishes! now, pray for me (sacrifice a goat, dance naked, whatever) as I gird my loins to go to the DMV to renew my license.
Can't any one of your damn little Scooby club at least try to remember that I hate you all?

[NAFDA] Spike-centric discussion. Lusty, lewd (only occasionally crude), risque (and frisque), bawdy (Oh, lawdy!), flirty ('cuz we're purty), raunchy talk inside. Caveat lector.

What else besides ramen can you scoop? YOU CAN SCOOP THIS WORLD FROM DARKNESS!
I just skipped three hundred posts of what I presume to be Smallville S1 discussion (er?) to post this for Jilli:

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.
I have the official stuffed Death, Daniel, and Morpheus (oh, and Goldie). Still on the lookout for Delirium, but I doubt I'll ever find her.

Vortex - when we met you didn't look 65+ or anywhere near... why do you have to renew in person?

In utterly random news, I am listening to the soundtrack to 1776, a musical I worked crew for umpteen years ago. My brain is in a happy place.

What is even happening?
Huh. I guess I always assumed there was some central controlling Board of Directors for Baptist churches, or Presbyterian, or whatever. This does go a long way to explaining how my friend's Methodist church looks, walks, and quacks like a Baptist church without being Baptist, I guess.
Presbyterian and Methodist churches are not (typically, as far as I know) congregationally goverened. The Presbyterians have a Presbetery as a governing body, and the Methodists have Bishops.
There are plenty of non-denominational churches, and their governmental form can vary, but will sometimes be somewhat congregational (it sort of depends how the church got its start).
Churches that belong to a denomination or conference of some sort generally agree in principal with that body, and the association is often voluntary, so they remain affilated and will agree with denominational decisions, but they will also sometimes leave the denominations, or ignore them.
American Protestantism is very American.

EM's family was close with the actor that played Ben Franklin in the movie version. I think he was in the stage version too.

pray for me (sacrifice a goat, dance naked, whatever)
I will sacrifice a naked dancing goat. The DMV makes me cry.
I have now gotten sucked in to reading Wikipedia about religion, and it appears my parents' early exposure of me to Unitarianism really stuck a lot more than I'd thought.

My show was community theater, circa 1986. The soundtrack I'm listening to is the 1969 Broadway Cast. And according to ibdb.com, Howard Da Silva was part of that cast.
