See, in my fantasy, when I'm kissing you... you're kissing me. It's okay. I can wait.

Spike's Bitches 44: It's about the rules having changed.  

[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.

the ships in his Culture universe are sentient and give themselves what they think are hilarious nicknames, but, being spaceships, their idea of humor differs somewhat from that of their human occupants.

What does it say about me that I find most of them hilarious, and now want to read the books so I can get to know those wacky, wacky ships?

Now tagless for your comfort.

Late for suggestions NoiseDesign but I could suggest Starbird, Blue Tick and Threshold (although that is a space station) from the book Threshold. Or Araminta Station from the book of the same name.

Or how about Straylight from Count Zero?

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 Sparky, which was Flash Gordon's spaceship in the 1930s serials.

"It didn't taste good. It tasted soooo horrible. It tasted like....a vodka martini." - Matilda

The ship I'd pick from Heinlein would be The Rolling Stone.

Shir, I don't think the Superwoman syndrome is a sign of immaturity. At every age, people have to relearn what they *can* accomplish as opposed to what they want to accomplish. Marriage, classes, children, illness and all sorts of other life changes mean that's something everyone has to continually relearn. I am very bad at it, so, as Cindy says, if you find the answer, let us know.

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

I saw a car yesterday with a SONFGOD plate.
