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.

[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.

Bob's learned to live with tragedy, but he knows that this tragedy is one that won't ever leave him or get better.

I want a design based on this with shoots and leaves for my family. (And a little bud for the one I lost.)

That is a gorgeous and lovely idea, Jess.

All OK?

Most things in this country seem to be okay. Less so in Mexico. Natter tends to be the earthquake thread for reasons I've never even thought to wonder about. Quakes happen and I pop in there.

I'm glad to hear all here are OK.

On my side, 25 minutes till brownie!

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

We were out working in the yard during the quake and didn't even notice.

Heh. I am baking spelt bread. By the time it's done, The Girl will be able to eat it.

Is there a database or other source that will tell you how many/much of a particular drug is sold outside the US? We already know the drug in question is not sold in the US yet.

Not for free. When my BD folks want to know, I can only give them generalizations based on my checking out each region's info, some of which is not readily available (EMEA is pretty easy to grab, Africa and South America are not). There is a product called Tarius (database) that provides regulatory information, but I don't know about strictly $ numbers.

Did you guys know that Tony Danza is now a teacher in Philly? He's teaching English in high school.

Thanks for that info, Regis and Kelly!

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

And, in need for another post for this: Jessica, I was in the great exam black out when you lost the baby. Of course, I only caught up much later on the Beep Me. I don't think I told you how sorry I was for you, but you and the family are still on my thoughts from time to time.

This also comes to say that I like the idea of the new tattoo. What are the other ones?

Passover is evil, and that's all I'm gonna say. I understand Yom Kippur, but this?

Also, I answered you on the blog.

In other random "where are they now" news, Kelly McGillis is now in seminary to become an Episcopal minister and work with women in prison. Found this out from one of my actors who worked with her years ago, and they keep in touch.

Wow, that is cool about McGillis!
