We killed a homeless man on this bench. Me and Dru. Those were good times. You know, he begged for mercy, and you know, that only made her bite harder.

Spike's Bitches 42: Which question do you want me to answer first?  

[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.

Mostly lurking...

Oh, askye! He's GORGEOUS! YAY!

Barb, definite feh. Bad driver. No cookie.

Now let us crush something soft and watch it fountain blood. That is a girlish thing to want to do, yes?

Aww, cute kid, askye!

“Not dead yet!”

But adorable baby picspam helps make the pain fade. ADORABLE. Man, I love newborns-- they're so Dalai Lamaish, like they know every secret of the universe.

And then Ortus came and said "It's Ortin' time" and they all Orted off into the sunset

Wow, he's so alert!! I don't think we got an eyes-open pic of Dylan until he was about a week old.

Thrive to spite them

He is alert but then again he was more well done than most babies are when they are born.

A co worker's grandson was born last week and he weighed almost 8 lbs, so Evan has about 2 lbs on him. That's a big difference for a baby.

Mom says he's a good baby and isn't fussing too much and Dad swears he is already trying to talk to everyone.

It's nice to see some brave pretenders trying to make it interesting.

Drew, I'm so sorry your family has had so much to deal with; I hope your mom gets the best care and that the best living situation gets figured out.

Sox, sorry about your freezer! Bummer. I was up in the Poconos at a lake for some open water swimming practice, which didn't work too well because there were a lot of people, and then I came home and attempted to run 5 miles. First 2 miles were awesome, but the last 3 were, well, not.

eta Evan is a cutie patootie!

What a beautiful boy!

Barb, I'm with you on the stoopit drivers. I wish sometimes we drove bumper cars, because I would surely take my wrath out on some if these idjits.

“Not dead yet!”

I was just so angry/freaked because I looked up in the rearview mirror and this car was just coming up on me and I couldn't even see their headlights-- considering the back end of my car is pretty short, for a car to be so close that I can't see headlights-- it was pretty unnerving.

And I could just tell, after I punched the accelerator, that the other driver had no CLUE they'd been about to rear end me, at least, if the expression of shock I saw in the rearview was anything to go by.

Abby is sitting behind me giving more insightful commentary on the men's floor exercise than the actual television commentators.

Greece's financial crisis threatens to take down all of Western civilization - a civilization they themselves founded. A rather tragic irony - which is something they also invented. - Jon Stewart

He is alert but then again he was more well done than most babies are when they are born.

My sisters and I were all 2.5 weeks past due date and big (though not THAT bit). We also seemed older and have always attributed it to cooking longer.

Barb, I'm glad you had quick reflexes! Scary.

ION. HULK!SMASH! I'm not a cable tv viewer, therefore I am not eligible to watch the triathlon live online, which is the only place NBC is airing it.
