Every planet has its own weird customs. About a year before we met, I spent six weeks on a moon where the principal form of recreation was juggling geese. My hand to God. Baby geese. Goslings. They were juggled.

[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.

So I don't know if you'll be able to see this, but here's a video. If that link doesn't work, you may be able to watch it from my Wall.

We won’t stop until everyone is gay.

bonny, here's a good place to start, I think. CDC's "Healthy Pets, Healthy People" page. [link] And I'm pretty sure for humans it's a fecal test. Doc hasn't gotten back to me yet. In any case, from what I've read, it isn't an urgent thing. I think hookworms in the intestines are only a big deal if there are a lot, as it can cause anemia.

Something I've wondered - if you reversed the genders of "You Oughta Know," would it still work the same? Or is the song essentially a female complaint?

Hmm. There's a certain feminine venom, I think, but "you said we'd be together forever and then you left" is a pretty common theme. I bet Hec or Jon could come up with an analogue or two.

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

Ireland approved gay civil partnership yesterday.

Woo! Nice one, Ireland. I thought they'd take a lot longer over that one. (I'm enjoying seeing the slow rise in the number of places where our civil partnership will be recognised. I forget exactly why. It's fun to think we could move to Iceland and be considered married, though! Until we got too cold and came home.)

Our wings are not tired.

Have a fabulous weekend, sj!

Sunil, I have tears running down my cheeks and my son looking at me with the 'what the hell are you listening to' look on his face. Awesome!! VSOP indeed.

Never knew of such designations before, thanks Teppy for my something I learned today. I can slack off now.

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

Well there is the whole "she was way younger than Dave Coulier" back story that colors the whole thing for me... I guess strictly textually you could reverse it, but I can't shake the feeling that its a younger woman feeling to some degree played by an older man.

I just called my doctor to see if he could call in a perscription for ativan and got chided for calling so late on a Friday. So helpful.

this mess was yours / now your mess is mine

sj, did you tell them that next time you'd try to schedule your anxiety so that it's convenient for them?
