Lorne: Once the word spreads you beat up an innocent old man, well, the truly terrible will think twice before going toe-to-toe with our Avenging Angel. Spike: Yes. The geriatric community will be soiling their nappies when they hear you're on the case. Bravo.

"Look, son, if it's good enough for Shirley Bassey, it's good enough for you."

Okay, so coming in late and no doubt expressing the obvious, but I take it that Hec's a tiki aficionado?

To the point where I contributed a regular column to Tiki News.

It's funny because in the current sixties MS, one character loves tiki style and I've picked up some fantastic books on the subject. Buffistas really do encompass pretty much everything, don't they?

Which one? The Book of Tiki?

Let me know if you need any detailed background information. (or music - I've got tons) My column was titled Tiki Noir and I tracked down tiki bar scenes in old vintage hardboiled fiction from the fifties and sixties.

Have you seen the movie I Am Cuba? I presume so - but if not, it's got an amazing scene in a Tiki-ish nightclub in Havana.

"You can't put a price on the joy of not giving a shit." -Zenkitty

I've found myself getting irrationally angry when people are all up in my grill demanding to know if I'm registered to vote and if I'm going to vote and am I SURE that I'm registered to vote and am I AWARE that I will be defriended in real life if I don't vote? Because, dude, YES, I am registered to vote, and YES, I am going to vote, and god DAMN it, I know it's my civic duty, so will you PLEASE STOP YELLING AT ME?!

I think I got some free-floating guilt peanut butter in my democratic process chocolate.

More than one person? They must think you are a feckless youth.

I'm terrifically busy with my ennui.

Oh, my god, when did they re-record the finale music on Jeopardy? It sucks.

You were a wrong baby who grew up wrong. The wrong kind of wrong. It's better you hear it from a friend.

Unusually important in this election, the feckless vote.
