GS: If you had to choose between kicking evil in the head or the behind, which would you choose, and why? Minsc: I'm not sure I understand the question. I have two feet, do I not? You do not take a small plate when the feast of evil welcomes seconds.

( continues...) found stick shift on cars very easy to learn, as I had much previous experience driving tractors.

Oddly enough, despite being able to drive my grandparent's ancient Ford tractor, it didn't translate to driving a car for me.

When I learn to drive later this summer, I am going to learn on an automatic. It will be easier.

Okay, am I the only one disappointed to learn that not only does Jilli not drive, but she doesn't tool around in a Stutz Bearcat?

Just got another recruiter that asked me to lie on my resume. Why do they bother? All I will do is give them a bad name.

Ack, ita. Sorry to hear you're still having to deal with recruiters, let alone really crappy ones.

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.

Topic!Cindy, I'm sorry for your loss. Much peace and comfort ~ma to your whole family.

I'm so sorry Cindy.

Thanks WindSparrow, Burrell, Buffistas.

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

I'm sorry, Cindy.

Thanks, billytea.

Hey, on a WAY happier note, how's your little snookums, and how's the Wallybee?

Amazing. He is growing so well. His latest challenge is reaching out and grabbing things. It's great fun to watch him practice. He focuses on a dangling toy, concentrates intently, his arm straightens and sways a little, then he swings and... terrorist fist-bump. He hasn't quite mastered the hand control yet.

Wallybee's started taking jobs again, she had a court job today. It's doing her good to get out and about, I think. (Meanwhile, I'm studying for my first exam. I'm in for a fun weekend. Just as well there's nothing in the house that could distract me...)

So sorry, Cindy. So young!

Wait, I missed 200 posts on stick shift?!

I had confidently thought that my previous manual transmission car was nigh-unstealable, because your typical car-stealing shiftless youth today is literally shift-less, but I miscalculated about living in a city with a large immigrant population....

Even so, I still
