Eeek! Flying!
Yeah, "food a la lap" doesn't sound tasty.
Just be sure to eat extra pie.
Jayne: What're you gonna tell the others? Mal: About what? Jayne: About why I'm dead. Mal: Hadn't thought about it. Jayne: Make something up. Don't tell 'em what I did.

[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.

Greece's financial crisis threatens to take down all of Western civilization - a civilization they themselves founded. A rather tragic irony - which is something they also invented. - Jon Stewart

Just be sure to eat extra pie.

All is well that ends in pizza.

"And that's why God Almighty gave us fire insurance and the public defender".
I normally snort at demonstrations.
I find them mostly pointless, good for only the slight feeling of solidarity, a picture for tomorrow's newspaper, which in its turn will fold the fish of the next day. I prefer the daily struggle, the one which involves daily awareness, and not a bi-monthly demonstration.
And yet, I'll be there.

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.
Oh, Shir. I read that. It is beautiful.

"And that's why God Almighty gave us fire insurance and the public defender".
Funny. I'm finding myself convincing long time leftists friends that it's not a demonstration that's "shooting too much directions at the same time", but the thing we (I, we, them, it's all the same) waited for.
People are weird in their persistence of the country to recognize their own "unique" pain.
There's nothing unique about human rights violation.

"We're all stories, in the end. Just make it a good one, eh?"
So I'm losing the plot over the dissertation, which I cannot see finishing by Monday's deadline. The Girl is being adorable and seeing if she can change her flights to come home earlier than planned and help. Not sure how she can help, but I might go entirely crazy, possibly quite literally, if I'm alone in this flat with my work for much longer. So, yeah.
Shir, you are fab and I hope the demonstration is a useful one.
We don't do Thanksgiving, but with our American connections, p'raps we should. I like mashed potatoes and pie.

Seska, good luck with the whole sanity thing. And the dissertation. May The Girl have safe travels whenever she comes home to you.
