[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.

According to several friends who have done this, Barney Frank's phone-answering people are really appreciative if you call his office to let him know that he's awesome. They've been dealing with irate calls all day yesterday and today.

Shir: I'd absolutely love some help. I just need to get some of the letters down first. I'm dyslexic, which I swear is *seriously* getting in the way of learning a whole new alphabet. I never had this much trouble with French, German or Spanish (I thought I had an ear for languages, until I encountered ones from outside of Western Europe).
Of course! Email me, and I'll send you my Skype username.
And I have to ask - what is it in Hebrew accents that you find hard to follow?

All is well that ends in pizza.
My officemate is a Democrat and also a hunter, and thus owns several guns. I think he's the only person I know who's ever told me that he owns a gun.
Maybe republican gun collectors are afraid Obama's going to have them on a list if they let you know?
Then there's the guys showing up at Obama's visits in Arizona toting their assault rifles over their shoulders.
I DO want those guys on a list. That's bad taste, and therefore a mockable offense.

We won’t stop until everyone is gay.
Me too with the accent changing thing. I once left my parents a ridiculous and long British-inflected voicemail after watching An Ideal Husband.

Silly republicans. I'm the one keeping the list for Obama. (No exceptions! The first name on the list is my nephew's.)

I just put down a set of those interlocking foam tiles in my kitchen, and it makes a huge difference in how long I can comfortably stand there.

Amazon. It's the kind that's marketed for kids' playrooms. It's the exact same stuff as the kind that's marketed for kitchens, except in fun colors instead of just gray and black.
