You know, it's funny. We went to war never looking to come back, but it's the real world I couldn't survive.

[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.

Happy anniversary Laura! Sorry it started off so badly. That seems to be the way the day is going for many.

Shir, emails are a good way...though they can be just as filled with awkward small talk. :)

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

I had a few stupid driving incidents as a teenager, including a couple of out and out car chases, though I used doubling-back rather than speed. Luckily, never crashed.

Yeah, me too. And once I decided to find out how fast my parents' Mercury Marquis with the 460 engine would go. Answer: 120 mph.

Remember that the frontier of the Rebellion is everywhere. And even the smallest act of insurrection pushes our lines forward.

tommyrot, you're gonna drive me to drinkin' if you don't stop drivin' that hot rod Lincoln.

I found out a Subaru could do 105 sustained speed once while driving on I-70. Nonetheless, I got passed more than once.

My 2000 Focus was limited by the engine computer to 110 mph. Weird - if you tried to go faster, the engine would just cut out completely until it slowed down a bit.

I think that was because its tires were not designed for sustained high-speed driving.

"Look, son, if it's good enough for Shirley Bassey, it's good enough for you."

Yikes, Laura! I'm glad he's okay, but tell him he doesn't need to learn everything the hard way.

“Not dead yet!”

Happy anniversary Laura and DH!

My son totaled his car last night.

Holy crap. Was this the tank with the TV and rims he was inordinately proud of? And seriously, child, don't DO that to your mother.

"And that's why God Almighty gave us fire insurance and the public defender".

Wait. So you're saying, not to open with "A. thinks it's a good idea for us to get together, God knows why. Let's get this shit done with already. So, where would you like to eat?"?

Because what I thought of sending him, truth be told, isn't too far away from that. And also, I want to check the guy's spelling, grammar, and general use of the Hebrew language before I let him hang out with me (I know, my standards? Are shocking).

And job~ma for Lewis, Barb.

Life moves pretty fast. You don't stop and look around once in a while, you could miss it.

tommyrot, you're gonna drive me to drinkin' if you don't stop drivin' that hot rod Lincoln.

Scola made me laugh SO HARD. Which I totally needed this morning.
