I grew up with it, sj. I can't really say i was a regular watcher, but my mom watched. So I know everyon, and the basic relationships. The best part about soaps -- when they got really bored things would go off into strange fantastical fantasy lands -- and GL did that really well.
I said I'm sorry. I've made mistakes, but fear was never one of them.

[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.

Yeah, I was hoping for more of a strange, fantastical ending, but instead they pretty much paired everyone up, which I suppose is strange and fantastical in its own way. A lot of the former cast members made appearances this week, which was a treat.

Wishing the bitches a happy new year may be as observant as I get this year...
Eh. The Girl is a (Jewish) atheist (and I'm a Christian!), so no services for us, and we'll do the prayers at dinner only because they make me happy. Enjoy your new year, whatever you do!

Our wings are not tired.
Happy *&@$# Birthday to Erika!
It is sad to see a show that was on so long bite the dust. I hope that the ending was satisfying to the fans.
Aww, Brendon loves you guys too. I can't believe it has been so long since we managed to F2F.

OK, I made the lentil pate. Now I'm watching Prairie Home Companion with my dad.

Ann, that's a ferret.
((((Laura)))) And you are not. fat.
Happy Birthday, erika!
No word on Rigatoni. Which I interpret as, they're still working on him, and we can still hope.

Greece's financial crisis threatens to take down all of Western civilization - a civilization they themselves founded. A rather tragic irony - which is something they also invented. - Jon Stewart
HAPPY BIRTHDAY, ERIKA!!!!
