Spike's Bitches 45: That sure as hell wasn't in the brochure.  

[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.

Yikes, four police officers were killed in Lakewood, near Seattle. Looks like they might have been targeted since they were meeting before their shift.

Near Tacoma. Not near Seattle!

(Lakewood's the space that's right by McCord AFB, south of Tacoma proper. It's ooky.)

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

Near Tacoma. Not near Seattle!

Tell it to Google news! (They said near Seattle.)

Nonetheless: Four cops down. That's a bad day.

Makes five this month killed assassination-style in the local region. My first thought this morning was the paranoid, shit, are these related?

Doesn't seem to be, though.

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.

Nonetheless: Four cops down. That's a bad day.

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

Near Tacoma. Not near Seattle!

Tacoma is near Seattle! And the site of my ex-company's headquarters. And little else, as I recall. That was a weird place.

Health~ma to your brother in law, Calli.

And ouch, Andi. I hope it's better now.

It's a WHOLE DIFFERENT AREA CODE! Long distance! And a different county! Hell, it's too far to be considered a bedroom community! I mean, there are a few crazy people who drive to Seattle from there, but they're crazy.

The airport is in Tacoma, right?

"We're all stories, in the end. Just make it a good one, eh?"

Health~ma for your b-i-l, Calli. I hope they figure out the problem really soon.

Erin, congrats on the house! Sounds great.

Last day of dissertation. I have slightly more to do, by 4pm, than feels comfortable. The Girl is helping, fortunately. Gah. Eight hours and this will be done with, at least!
