Spike's Bitches 37: You take the killing for granted.  

Closed Threads

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

A dress should be tight enough to show you're a woman but loose enough to flee from zombies. — Ginger

I'm thinking there's a good chance! I might be going with a co-worker, but I still need to talk to my principal.

I'll ask him about it Tuesday and get back atcha. I think Jonathan Kozol and Amy Tan are rumored speakers. And it's in New Yawk! We could have a 'Ffista meet! And drink!

God, I didn't just abuse exclamation points there, I freakin' strung 'em up, flooged them and sold 'em as child prostitutes.

The status is NOT quo.

Hee. Amy Tan came to speak at my school last year (I know, I know...as a friend said, if I keep changing private schools in LA, eventually my students are going to be entirely made of gold), and she was seriously the best speaker I have ever heard. She was mesmerizing. I've heard that she's not always as good as that, but she certainly was then.

I would **love** to hear Kozol speak. I respect him so much.

I'll ask him about it Tuesday and get back atcha.
Yes, please! I need to put in for the PD money if I'm going to pursue this. Squee! I'm so excited!

Check out Natter. I think I used up the whole 10,000 posts double posting earlier.

Sometimes I think I might just move up to Vermont, open a bookstore or a vegan restaurant. Adam Schlesinger, z''l

I heard Jonathan Kozol speak at a book signing in DC a few years ago, when Shame of the Nation had just come out, and he was incredible.

I'd really like to see him speak.

"Fuck Western ideologically-motivated gender identification!" Sulu gasped, and came.

So glad things are going better for you! Go Team!

(I am 35 -- quelle WTF?!).

OMG, I so hear you. I mean, I'm 34, but - yeah. And this evening while I was out with colleagues getting moderately wellied down the Kao San Road, one of them told me that I looked really good for my age. Which she totally meant as a compliment (she explained that she'd have assumed I was in my 20s), and I took it as such, but it was still a bit of a gobsmacker that I can possibly be old enough for anyone to say such a thing.

I prefer "You don't LOOK that old!" which leaves me at once complimented and kinda freaked at the "O" word.

35!? That's insane! When did THAT happen?

Always Anti-fascist!

I've had people argue with me and say I couldn't possibly...which I suppose would be a compliment if I had, like, this whole regimen that I was madly devoted to, but I don't, so I feel funny accepting it for my ancestors or something.
