'Touched'


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.

Shit's all sorts of different now.

In the Night Garden

WHAT THE FUCK WAS THAT??

It is pouring rain today so our plan to wander around Newport is out, but it is still nice to be here. We may go to a movie later.

We won’t stop until everyone is gay.

Hil, didn't mean to sound like I was questioning your doc. I mostly meant Beighton vs. Brighton, which it sounds like he's aware of. I know that a lot of people think HMS is basically indistinguishable from EDS III.

Watching SGU. Too soon to pass judgment. I have heard vague things about some racefail. KBD's early guess is that they're going for a BSG feel.

You were a wrong baby who grew up wrong. The wrong kind of wrong. It's better you hear it from a friend.

You want scary kids' TV? In The Night Garden.

That was awesome! They have hoopoes!

Weekly update: I now have a big honking satellite dish in my back yard, aimed at China. We can receive about 35 TV channels and over 100 radio stations. This marks the culmination of a saga lasting months, and was installed just in time (quite literally, as in the same morning) for Wallybee's parents to watch the PRC's 60th anniversary celebrations. Wallybee's parents, it should be noted, are quite awesome. This should be a great help in them feeling more at home here.

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

Yeah, there's never a consensus on whether In The Night Garden is freakishly, terrifyingly disturbing, or the best thing ever. (Obviously anyone who can recognise PURE EVIL understands that it's the former.)

billytea ~ TV from China! Cool.

In my family we recognise that the two are not incompatible, and indeed may well be strongly correlated.

It really is. We can get kids' channels too, which may be of interest to Ryan in a few years' time. (Assuming he has a break in his schedule of watching In The Night Garden with his eyelids propped open.)

If you want to watch Rachel Maddow's reaction to the "Shagged by a rare parrot" video, check it out. At the end of it, she's laughing so hard she can barely speak.

omnis, pursue. That's an order from a shy woman who can use M-16. - Shir

I watched SGU last night. It has potenial. But there were a few times I was thinking "Voyager without the Prime Directive".

I'm at the dealership. I haven't had service on the prius since leaving CA. But I had synthetic oil put in, and including the drive across, have only driven 11,000 mikes in 15 months. But I think I have a coolant leak, as my windshield "fogs" up easily. Ugg. Guess I'm not getting a new airport.
