[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.

“Not dead yet!”

Ginger, you went to Vanderbilt? Me too! Oh, the Parthenon. I must go see it again, now that work on Athena is finished.

Lewis did too!

As far as looks I love for myself, I'm a gown whore. I'd love to walk a red carpet like once every couple of weeks so I could wear gowns and beautiful shoes and spectacular jewelry.

This is one of my favorite pictures of myself.

"This bar smells like kerosene and stripper tears."

I guess it could be worse -- it could be Comic Sans

This was my exact reaction.

"We're all stories, in the end. Just make it a good one, eh?"

I guess it could be worse -- it could be Comic Sans.

When I was teaching a lot of students with learning difficulties, we surveyed them to find out which font they liked best. Guess which one came out tops? Comic Sans became our house style, and I gagged every time I had to type in it.

I'm in favour of readable fonts, being dyslexic, but Ariel etc is fine...

Every now and then, I think I might actually be a little odd.

Barb, that dress is stunning, and you look fabulous in it!

I heard of an office once that rebelled against "casual Friday" and instituted "formal Friday". Men would wear tuxedoes, women would wear gowns and tiaras.

That man was going to shank me. Over an omelette. Two eggs and a slice of government cheese. Is that what my life is worth?

Your family's in Jackson, ChiKat? My grandmother was born and raised there, as was a college friend.

They're actually about 30 miles south of Jackson in a tiny town, Bolivar. My dad is in a nursing home there and my mom lives at home in an even tinier town outside of Bolivar, Saulsbury.

That's kind of fabulous, but unless you wear the same gown every week, it could get expensive. I also don't know how comfy I would be working all day in a gown. I have worn a tiara all day at work and know that's perfectly doable.

ChiKat, yeah, the article didn't mention how the girls afforded the finery! I think a gown would be totally comfortable all day, providing you had on comfortable underthings. And providing you weren't too troubled about the chance of, say, dropping mustard on it.

Ann, that's a ferret.

Once, a neat gimmick. Regularly, no.

I actually do like Verdana on-line because it is easier on my extremely bad eyes. But never for print.

Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.

How about:

  • Scuba Friday - where everyone shows up in a wetsuit. And maybe have meeting at the bottom of a swimming pool.
  • Mime Friday
  • Leotard Friday
  • Furry Friday

Furry Friday

This could make some people really really happy.

We do spirit wear Fridays and wear our school shirts. We also have "gold Wednesdays" and wear a gold/yellow shirt (school colors=blue and gold).
