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.

What else besides ramen can you scoop? YOU CAN SCOOP THIS WORLD FROM DARKNESS!

Scientists will also create robot bear: [link]

The Battlefield Extraction Assist Robot (BEAR) can scoop up even the heaviest of casualties and transport them over long distances over rough terrain.

New Scientist magazine reports that the "friendly appearance" of the robot is designed to put the wounded at ease.

It is expected to be ready for testing within five years.

There's nothing in the short article about it rebelling and enslaving us.

"This bar smells like kerosene and stripper tears."

Somebody needs to let Colbert know about the robot bear.

There's nothing in the short article about it rebelling and enslaving us.

I, for one, welcome our friendly bear robot overlords.

Although putting it as "friendly appearance" is loaded on a number of levels.

Somebody needs to let Colbert know about the robot bear.

I hope that turns up on the threatdown.

"This bar smells like kerosene and stripper tears."

Can I get a little bit of ~ma. My uncle, Johnny, had a heart cath procedure Wednesday morning. The Dr. found one artery 90% blocked but got it opened to 40% but could not add a stint, he spent the night and went home yesterday. Last night he suffered a heart attack and had to be air-lifted to Shreveport. (He was down at the lake where my grandparents were). He is in the Cardiac Unit, and they have decided to go ahead and do the bypass today (they were going to wait until Monday).

My uncle Bill last April, Grandaddy in December, Mimi this March. I would like for the worst case to happen way way farther into the future.

Health-ma for your Uncle Johnny. My oldest brother just had heart cath and did have stints put in for basically that same reasons.

Punishingly Intricate

lisah - are you honfesting this weekend?

I'm working at Atomic on Saturday so, by default, I am. Should be fun getting the tourists to leave their froufyfruity drinks OUTSIDE the store full of books. It's actually my last day there. I'm giving it up because, with new day job, I feel like I'll really need my whole weekend to rest and do stuff. I'll miss it though. It's a pretty fun place to work. And I'll REALLY miss the employee discount!

Cindy, I can't really tell what the posh haircut would look like because the picture is so dark. But I'd trust Hec if he says you can pull it off. He is the expert! I like the messy pixie, personally, and the one you posted yesterday that you were worried was too young for you. (And looking at your links made me really wish I could get away with short hair! So fun!)

Now tagless for your comfort.

Heart-ma for your uncle, DJ.

Scientists Create Robot Toddler: [link]

Why would they create a robot version when we can't control the ones we already have???? Or will this one be able to repair my laptop keyboard?

If I come out with a women-in-prison haircut, you'll give me virtual cake, right?

You can tell everyone you were Paris' cellmate.

Ann, that's a ferret.

Health~ma to DJ's uncle.
