[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.

Peace~ma for your dad, and your whole family, Aimee. I'm so sorry for your loss.

(((Aimee)) I'm so sorry for your loss. Peace and comfort to your dad and your family.
Peace-ma for Papa McVay, and reading-ma for Aims. I'm so sorry for your loss.
Sox, the inevitable end to the evening picture is hilarious!
I fell asleep around 6 pm and now I'm awake, shocked it'd only 10 pm and not 4 am or something. Hope I can get back to sleep at some point.
Aimee, I'm so sorry for your loss.
Oh, Aims. I'm very sorry for your loss, love.
JZ - that's one adorable picture, but I think that the "Hi people" thing may just have it beat for cuteness. Also, I am full of envy over the Harry Potter street.
Children's movies should not have orphans in them.
It was ALL insano troll logic, of course, but this in particular sprang out at me. Hello? Have you SEEN any classic children's movies/ read much kidlit, insano troll logic person?
Off the top of my head: Annie, Oliver Twist, James and the Giant Peach, Snow White, Harry Potter, The Secret Garden, A Little Princess, Pollyanna, Anne of Green Gables, The Jungle Book, A Series Of Unfortunate Events, The Graveyard Book...

Fay, deep breaths, love. It's not worth getting het up over the Insane Trolls.
All of the best children's books have orphans or absent parents. You can't do the really cool stuff with parents.
I have been taken out for my birthday by a very good friend. We worked together started some 20 years ago, in a place where three of us cared passionately about the English language and everyone else ... did not. Sometimes friendship seems to be a kind of miracle. As Clarence king said, "One friend in a lifetime is much; two are many; three are hardly possible. Friendship needs a certain parallelism of life, a community of thought, a rivalry of aim."
I love Matilda's "Yo, people. Of course I can talk. What are you smoking?"
I'm sorry, Aims. Strength to you and your dad.
Aimee, so sorry.
