Death is your art. You make it with your hands day after day. That final gasp, that look of peace. And part of you is desperate to know: What's it like? Where does it lead you? And now you see, that's the secret. Not the punch you didn't throw or the kicks you didn't land. She really wanted it. Every Slayer has a death wish. Even you.

It's five thousand for kissing, ten thousand for snuggling... End of list.
As a whole, it's not. In some individual cases, it is sometimes the only way to get a point across.
There's a tension with saying that students should know better already -- because we would never have used acronyms -- and only the most OTT correction will get students to know better.
I don't see why the student had to have been failed, when she was going to make a huge demonstration to prove her point anyway.

Our wings are not tired.
I watched breast reduction surgery on medical tv a while back. It was incredible. A friend had this done years ago and she was so happy. She didn't know what she loved more, being able to buy clothes that fit right, or being able to bend over to garden.

I'm terrifically busy with my ennui.
I have just massacred a bowl of couscous with pork, basil cheese, almonds, snap peas, and craisins.

Re: Breast reduction - my mom had it done about 8 years ago and has been so happy with it. Pretty much solved the pinched nerve in her shoulder.
