[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.

this mess was yours / now your mess is mine

Wow, Italy is pretty profane!

I always suspected it was so.

Sean, are there people zipping by on Vespas, going "Ciao!"?

Ann, that's a ferret.

Yay, Sean! (Hint: When you leave Venice, try to get the earliest departure time possible. Yes, you have to get up at obscene-o'clock a.m., but there's nothing -- and I mean NOTHING -- like a water taxi ride through Venice in the pre-dawn hours, when only the ghosts are up.

Shit's all sorts of different now.

Dude.

So I overheard a phone call one of our Prop Mgr's made. I asked him, "Did you just call D?" He says, "Yeah." I tell him, "He's on vacation this week." "Oh. Well, I'm sure it wasn't all that hard to answer my question." "Would you want to answer a question while you're on vacation that 5 other people could answer who aren't?" "I answer questions on my vacation all the time!"

No you don't, assface. You barely answer questions when you are here. Which you never are. You are always "at a property".

Sean, are there people zipping by on Vespas, going "Ciao!"?

No, but only because it's Venice, and everybody is zipping around in gondolas, going "Ciao!"

I fully expect to see nothing but wall to wall vespas when we hit the mainland on Thursday.

I'll bet it's amazing, but we're leaving by train for Florence about noon on Thursday. We may have to do an early morning water taxi ride around the island, though.

I imagine sunrise is impressive, too. Enjoy your trip, you've earned it!

What else besides ramen can you scoop? YOU CAN SCOOP THIS WORLD FROM DARKNESS!

No, but only because it's Venice, and everybody is zipping around in gondolas, going "Ciao!"

Watch out for alien fish monsters from space!

Remember that the frontier of the Rebellion is everywhere. And even the smallest act of insurrection pushes our lines forward.

Friends don't let friends read "Atlas Shrugged"

yay Sean! so glad you're enjoying your trip.

Everyone's dinner sounded MUCH better than mine (ptui! we will speak of it no more). And Jilli, was the "gloatycakes" your dessert?

Vortex, le nubian started a discussion of The Gates in Boxed Set ... although I have a feeling this is one that might not last long enough for a set.

omnis, pursue. That's an order from a shy woman who can use M-16. - Shir

Sean, enjoy it. Can't think of a more deserving person. Doesn't stop the envy.

move out and draw fire

HOLY FUCKING CRAP, ALPS!

This was my exact feeling.

Still jealous about the Italy part.
