Y'all see the man hanging out of the spaceship with the really big gun? Now I'm not saying you weren't easy to find. It was kinda out of our way, and he didn't want to come in the first place. Man's lookin' to kill some folk. So really it's his will y'all should worry about thwarting.

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

[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

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.

I think Jonathan Kozol and Amy Tan are rumored speakers.
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.
