Huh. I mean, I guess so.
The best part about the gel (badegel!) is it's also mit glimmer-optik!
Spike: We got a history, him and me. Fred: What? Spike: It was a long time ago. He was a young Watcher, fresh out of the academy when we crossed paths. It was a, what-you-call battle of wills and blood was spilled. Vendettas were sworn. It was a whole-- Fred: My God you're so full of crap. Spike: Yeah. Okay.

It might be "the new bath fun."

Now let us crush something soft and watch it fountain blood. That is a girlish thing to want to do, yes?
nah, "Spass" (or "Spaß") is related to fun - I've generally heard it more in the sense of a joke, but it looks there are meanings that are closer to simple fun, having fun, enjoyment, and so on. [link] is my favorite online German dictionary when it comes to shades of fairly colloquial speech, but I can't link directly to a search...
(x-post because I was being all wordy while Ginger said it better anyway)

It's five thousand for kissing, ten thousand for snuggling... End of list.
In Germany passports are fun.

Ah -- fun makes more sense. I was thinking maybe there was something -- I can't think of the word, but like colloquial or not-quite-literal -- with the "passport" thing.
It is the new fun in my bath, with the glitter and all!

Alternate English teacher perspective on new SAT: it's really nice to be able to clearly link writing skills to that oh-so-important test.

What with all the paper writing that my academic college classes required (and even some of the art classes with lecture components), I can see how having some indication of an incoming student's skill level would be very handy.
And, likely, depressing as well.

I agree that writing was shamefully ignored before, but if it's true that SAT writing scores don't correlate well with students' actual writing ability, I don't think it's the right instrument.
