"What are the ABCs of technical writing?"
whoa, this seems like something I should know as a professional tech writer.
Well, look who just popped open a fresh can of venom.

[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.

well, you gotta give him a point or two for a slightly amusing answer.

Oops, it's the ABCs of proposal writing.

Oh I would, but the kid really needs to take responsibility for his notes. I'm not sure I can excuse his getting an A from me just because he's funny -- but he is that funny. We had another kid in the class who never took notes so didn't know what SCAMPER stood for -- so he made up a bunch of things, including "Cry because your idea doesn't work." These kids are wicked smaht.

Hec, your double was on the flight to Charlotte. I don't see him on the flight to Providence.
We made our very short connection despite a late wheelchair. We only had a half hour, and I didn't think there was a chance.

No more grownup scissors for me.
Holding stack of credit card crap in one hand. Scissors in other. Cut too deep. I see it coming but cannot stop and now I have this nasty flap of skin that isn't going to feel like stayinf closed any time soon.
Oy.

Ouch, Trudy. Don't DO that!

I got Byron's results back. It's malignant, aggressive fibrosarcoma. No clean margins. Likely to recur. The only chance to eliminate it is radical surgery; I'm supposed to call the surgeon today to see what she recommends doing next.
I may not be online for awhile. I'm having a hard time processing this.

Now let us crush something soft and watch it fountain blood. That is a girlish thing to want to do, yes?
I'm so sorry, KT. Many chin-scritches for Byron.
edit: read only after you've had your away time! (not scary, just... for later) I know you probably don't want to think about it much just now, but when you're ready to, I've known amputee cats who've gotten around like absolute demons for years afterwards. It's a rough thing to even think about, but if it's what the surgeon says, he's got a good shot.
