Boy what I miss when I'm off grading...
Happy belated birthday to Em, and congratulations to Seska!
I'll be in my bunk.

[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.

the hardest to learn / was the least complicated
I also find that not answering my phone unless I'm in the mood to talk solves this problem quite nicely.
Yep, same here.
They're hard-headed Vermonters.

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 just have my cell and many people can attest to me being amazingly unreachable at times. It's for my convenience, not theirs. Of course, YUsageWillTotesVary.
The only bargaining advice I have is you need to be prepared to walk away. If they can't give you the deal you're asking for, you leave
This unintentionally has gotten me great deals. Also, at times, intentionally. But you have to be honestly okay with walking away. I hate conflict but I hate being bullied more.

Anyway, it's the tannins from Camellia sinensis leaves that you want.
So, the tannins in red wine don't work?

Shit's all sorts of different now.
Just got appropriately burned by my Awesome Co-Worker.
Me: Dave, bite my ass.
Dave: Can't. No overtime allowed.
BWAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA!!!

Now let us crush something soft and watch it fountain blood. That is a girlish thing to want to do, yes?

Best to experiment just to be sure.

Continuing thanks for all the ~ma that's been sent the way of The Girl's father. He had an important round of tests today, and things are looking pretty good. After another course of chemo they think they'll be able to operate.
Hil, I hope post-extraction pain hasn't been too bad.

I think you'd have to soak something in red wine and bite on it.

My tongue would work, right?
and bite on it.
hmm, not so much

Every now and then, I think I might actually be a little odd.
After an appropriately liberal application of red wine, the exact delivery method may not matter.
