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.

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

Um. I wonder how many kids they had? Either way. HILARIOUS!

I don't remember if it was four or five. But not none.

Billytea, your Mother should have suggested they try it the other way.

Happy belated natal day, omnis!

I actually signed up to be an election worker this year. As a federally-funded company, my employment makes me fall under the Hatch Act, so I can't actively work for a particular candidate.

But since there were so many newly registered Democrats in VA that some of them weren't able to vote in the primaries due to a shortage of poll workers, I figure my non-partisan participation might actually help a certain candidate, while still being legal.

ANYWAY, I have to be there at 5:00 am and stay until after the polls close, and they pay me $100. I'm planning on bringing my laptop, and/or a book.

I'm sure it varies from place to place. You should call your election board.

Happy birthday!

Not that I want you to be overworked but I'm hoping it'll be too busy for you to look at either!

"And that's why God Almighty gave us fire insurance and the public defender".

However, be prepared-- after this brief honeymoon period, they will then begin to not-so-subtly ask "So, when are you going to be bringing someone by?"

Thanks for the heads up. I'll start thinking about answers.

Happy belated birthday, omnis!
