Do your homework missy. I got my paper done and turned in, so I'll keep an eye on the game for the both of us.
Spike's Bitches 36: Did I Sully Our Good Name?
[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.
Argh!
Hey, anyone have any idea how common a name Tony Gama-Lobo is?
Because if one of my gifted program carpool partners became an award-winning TV writer, and another one is an elected official, I am going to seriously start feeling like a slack ass.

And ELLIS HITS FOR THE CYCLE!!!!!
Did anybody watch "The Starter Wife"? I was going to ask before today sucked so badly, but I forgot. I thought it was funny, though.

What do you want us to say?

Okay, why are you all hippie-chick about everything that makes more work for you, and then all Alex P. Keaton about your intellect vs. your career path?

The good guys are always stalwart and true. The bad guys are easily distinguished by the pointy horns or black hats...?
Hey AmyLiz! - We're also looking in the borough... and everywhere else right now. I think Chestnut Hill may be interesting, but that's just from pictures. In West Chester, I just saw a farmhouse kind of thing that I can't believe I liked. But we're used to walking out our door and seeing lots of people, and walking to things, so suburbs - and driving - and especially Routes 30, 202, and 76 are not my favorite topics. We're hoping to be near enough to a train station that much of the commute is done for us, and we can maybe ditch a car.
I grew up in Wayne. That most places around Philly come equipped with their own real farmer's markets is a very ok thing. I like Delaware, Virginia, and Maryland all a lot better than Pennsylvania. I need open water somewhere nearby. But there are some things (farmer's markets, a reasonably well-planned public transportation system) that I've missed.
Living near a buffista or two would be awesome.
AmyLiz, West Chester is nice - and not too far from DC (they have TRAINS!). And it's funny about you growing up in Newark - my mother and sister live there now; nice town, but hard to get to without a car.
And, just for the cute.
Why am I up an hour and a half earlier than I need to be? Grr.
In happier news, today is my last day of one of my classes! Next Tuesday is the last day of my other class! And I don't have class again until August (summer session)! So happy!
OMG, the pigs! That last picture is too much -- they're grinning!

Newark is totally a modern-suburb car-town. All developments and strip malls. I don't particularly like Newark (although I do like the way it's pronounced better than Jersey's "Nerk"), and Wilmington is sort of sad compared to what it was like years and years ago.
I really like West Chester. I especially like the fact that my parents live within walking distance of town, and there's a million little shops and restaurants there, because of the college and the courthouse. Of course, we won't be living *with* them, but I'd love to live right in the borough so we could do the same. The only problem then is parking.

Routes 30 and 202 aren't too bad for me (not after living for so long near Route 22 in Jersey), but I agree -- 76 is a nightmare. Honestly, I do prefer Bucks County -- if we could move back to Yardley, I would. Yardley and towns like Newtown have enough of the small town feel I love, where if you live close enough to "town" you can walk to stuff, and only have to drive to the grocery store or the mall, but it's much more expensive than Chester County. And it's also an hour from my parents', which we want to avoid.
