Yes, it's terribly simple. The good guys are always stalwart and true, the bad guys are easily distinguished by their pointy horns or black hats, and, uh, we always defeat them and save the day. No one ever dies, and everybody lives happily ever after.

[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.

Ditto on all the ~ma, bt. Definitely a time to look at everything as the glass more than half full. Barely two weeks until BabyTea! How did that happen? (Don't answer, I know the mechanics, it's just, mathematics and that wibbley-wobbley-timey-whimey stuff seems to have totaly run away with whatever sense of time I have in regard to the age or imminence of Buffista sprog.)

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

I thoroughly recommend chasing down a Nat Geo series entitled In The Womb. It has one ep where it compares the embryonic development of a penguin, a kangaroo, a shark and a wasp.

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

I'll wait until after breakfast to start that hunt.

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

Think if they all shared the same womb. That would be an awesome sitcom....

Sorry to hear about he layoff BT, but thrilled that you are so excited about the impending arrival of a small mammal.

It'd be like Herman's Head, only on National Geographic! Or possibly HBO.

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

Also, only 3 hours to cake (and bread! And pizza!). Can't believe I made it this far.

Sigh. About 30 hours for me.

(For people trying to figure out the time zone thing -- Passover is seven days in Israel, eight days everywhere else, because of a weird leftover tradition from the days before instant communication.)
