'Why We Fight'

[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.

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

I wish for someone to find a peaceful resolution.

THIS.

I can't even begin to type how confusing this is for me, moving consistently between worry-to-my-own-safety and worry-to-the-safety-of-others. And everytime I stop for a minute to update on the news, all I'm thinking is "fucking government, messing the hell out of it" (almost literally). So I assume it must be more confusing to people from abroad.

And in the winter, out of all times. You don't do wars during the winter. You don't make my sister sleeping her 1-3 hours per day inside a huge concrete tube open to wind and rain because "there she'll be more protected". You don't make my friends crawl into tanks in this cold.

This is impossible; And yet, this is happening. Seems like the more I grow up in here, the less I agree with the concept of fighting. I'd move anywhere, anytime, give up on a hell lots if that's what would bring peace; And I doubt that wiping out the Strip or the West Bank would bring that. I don't think I'm that much of a pacifist, and I'll fight for my own existence, but this is just so useless.

omnis, pursue. That's an order from a shy woman who can use M-16. - Shir

Pix, take care over there, ya hear?

Someone pat my hand and tell me I can do this. I signed up for a paid subscription on match.com. Eep!
Sail, I did it as well. Um. I hope you have far more luck than I. I'm on the free 6 months period now. :: sigh :: I suck at picking up women, in person or online t mope oops, forgot the end tag...

Please. Do. Not. Open. A. Second. Front. (At least until Thursday, after my dentist appointment in Haifa).
kthnxbye,
Me
LOL! You crack me up Shir. Nice to see you have a little humor in all this madness.

This is impossible; And yet, this is happening. Seems like the more I grow up in here, the less I agree with the concept of fighting.

OK, I really should get outside and enjoy this beautiful day and stretch the legs.

You should know I'm a big deal in the Resistance.

I read somewhere that gay rights groups were pressuring Match.com to open up membership for same-sex dating. Does this mean they're not bi-friendly?

Sometimes I think I might just move up to Vermont, open a bookstore or a vegan restaurant. Adam Schlesinger, z''l

I'm on a Jewish dating site that uses "matchmakers" -- you set up your profile, and then they have people who look at all the profiles and set up people that they think would be good together. I'd thought it might be less stressful than having to go through all the profiles and pick for myself, but so far, I've been set up in about 40 matches, I've rejected about 5, and the rest have rejected me. There aren't very many people on the site in my area, though -- most of the people I was getting paired with were in NY.

The status is NOT quo.

I'm thinking I don't need a tetanus booster. I'll get one next time I go to the doctor, but the blade had been washed in the dishwasher and was just sitting in a drawer. It wasn't rusty or dirty at all, and the cut was deep, but not deep enough to need a stitch.

Our wings are not tired.

How is it feeling today, Kristin? The "good thing" about a knife cut is that it is usually neat enough to heal quickly.

The status is NOT quo.

And because it deserves its own post, Shir, I wish I could say something remotely comforting. The situation is just awful.

ouch Kristin! I think someone did say upthread that their doc thinks tetanus shots are overused and he rarely gives them to adults so I bet you'll be fine. Just keep an eye on it for swelling or opaque seepage . yum.

Laura, it's a bit sore and is going to make grading a bit tricky today, but it isn't too bad. It looks like it's healing relatively cleanly.

ETA:

I think it was Kristin that said the Fit was lotsa fun.
It is! Cutesy and makes you want to smack it at times, but the best way to trick me into exercising I've ever found.

The more I learn, the more I realize how little I know.

Just think how impressed your students will be when you return their papers to them marked in blood.
