Both of my grandmothers and one of my grandfathers went to college. (Or, at least, some sort of post-secondary school -- my grandmother went to whatever school was required to become a kindergarten teacher in Germany in the thirties.)

[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.

Love is stronger than death and harder than sorrow. Those who practice it are fierce like the light of stars traveling eons to pierce the night.

Let's see . . . my genealogy has turned up a Dutch sailor who joined up with the Moors and became an admiral of their pirate fleet, led a major raid on Baltimore in Ireland, and ended his days commanding a fortress. I've also got Quaker martyrs, a colonial Massachusetts governor, and a captain in Cromwell's army, through whom I'm related to Benjamin Rush, who signed the Declaration of Independence.

Fibber McGee and Molly.
I can't think of that without thinking of Newsradio when Mr. James gave it (the rights to the show) to Matthew for Christmas.

I'm related to the guy who produced such cinematic classics as Neptune's Naughty Daughter, Untamed Ladies, African Lions and American Ladies, and She's a He. [link]

Shit's all sorts of different now.
Joe's distant relative founded Salem. One of my distant relatives was accused of witchcraft (never tried) in Salem. Nice to know the bickering is come by honestly.
Joe is also a candidate for the Mayflower Society.

One of my Mayflower relatives was involved in the first duel in the New World. I come from a long line of argumentative pains-in-the butt!

It's nice to see some brave pretenders trying to make it interesting.
At some point I am going to finish the genealogy application for the Mayflower Society. I'm pretty close, just missing a few things. I hark back to two people - Richard Warren (through his daughter Mary) and William White (through his son Peregrine).
I can't believe Hello Kitty Girl started kindergarten!
