Nah. Jesse came up with something else. Rolling blackouts in California and Enron.
Giles, if you would like to get by in American society, then you are going to have to follow our traditions. You're the patriarch. You have to host the festivities, or it's all meaningless.

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.

I am a woman of various inclinations and only some of the time are they to burn everything down in frustration
That was probably wrong of me.
Doesn't sound like it to me.
I'm really glad you don't have reasons to be around him in the future, Aims. Yikes.

this mess was yours / now your mess is mine
we contributed to the economic downfall of the US and now Greece
Boy, I'm kind of mad about you about that, too. Well, not about the US. But Greece -- look, you're just fucking with the world's supply of really good ouzo. And THAT WILL NOT STAND.

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.
You were definitely there when the Titanic went down. I saw you.

Not so nice is that I'm about to ruin a Friday morning for a bunch of people because of a series of unfortunate events and an upset foreign government. - shrift
Ugh, Aims. I'll be more than happy to tell him to fuck off. Then he can bitch and moan about your foreign-named, over-educated friend who works with the crooks in DC. That should hopefully cause enough ranting and raving to give him a serious case of heartburn and angina.

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

Oh yeah? Well, too bad. Put a piece of licorice in a shot of vodka and you'll be a'right.

Bring your sassy ass out here! The awesome thing? HIS WIFE? Yeah - works at the Pentagon.

I like to call myself "Sawyer". Or James. Whichever.

"Look, son, if it's good enough for Shirley Bassey, it's good enough for you."
Aims, I want you to know I hold you personally responsible for having a fantastic rack, a brilliant smile, stylish haircuts and a devastating snark.
It's all your fault.

My sassy ass was just out there! I flew back on Wednesday. If I would have known, I would have driven past Belleville and given him a steaming pile of Italian-flavored hell. Now with extra capers and hot peppers!
His wife works at the Pentagon? I suppose it's the only way to make that marriage work - 900 miles between.
(And if I'm out of line, just say so. Believe me, I know how fraught with crap family dynamics can be.)
