River ,'Objects In Space'
[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.
Thanks y'all. We are in a Catholic hospital and there are portraits of Jesus all over the waiting room. It is kinda creepy. I can see how it might be comforting for some, but I feel like I'm being watched.
Don't worry, he's only keeping an eye on Catholics. You're free to commit whatever hospital related sins you can come up with.
I didn't read any of Moby Dick past the first chapter, but I knew Mr. Berryhill's habits so I read the footnotes. I slamdunked all the quizzes and the test. Of course, I also got to read Lord of the Rings as extra credit and had great discussions with him about LotR, so it was just a matter of hating Moby Dick.
Suzi, some ~ma heading your family way. Stay sane. The ~ma should work, and all will be fine.
Continued ~ma for Sean & S, y'all are always in my thoughts.

PixK, so if they clearly didn't read the book, but have really creative answers, do you give points for Creative Writing? Or is that a different course?
I like the questions that bring it more personal rather than the movie/actor ones. Maybe a question about what life lessons can you take from this book.
And again, I'm eating lunch at damn near 4pm. Uggg.
~ma to you and your mom, Suzi. I'm sorry.

I was rather impressed with myself one day in class for leading part of the conversation in class based on notes and the conversation from others. Sometimes good bullshit skills actually work! I should read that book at some time. I'm sure it's good. It just bored the living piss out of me at 19.
Ok - strangeness abounds. I funally got logged onto my home computer, but got "denied access" to b.org on that computer, yet I can hit it on this one.
Plus I can hit lj on that computer, which has a much higher potential for kink than b.org does. Weird.
Oh, Kristin, I was also thinking of the significance of setting. Like how many people called "Serenity" the 10th character in "Firefly", or the way the city or a region is significant. I was already thinking this then read the article Ginger linked over in Natter that says something about The South being used as a Stupid Straight Man*, or something to that effect. Maybe a question about whether the setting is very significant, or could the story have taken place anywhere? Or how the story would be different if set elsewhere - rural vs. urban, spaceship vs. sailing ship?
* That is of course as in Straight Man/Funny Man, not as in Non-Gay man.
Now the net-nanny won't let me play any games on facebook. This is craxy.
