You got all kinds of learnin' and you made me look the fool without tryin', and yet here I am with a gun to your head. That's 'cause I got people with me. People who trust each other, who do for each other, and ain't always lookin' for the advantage.

[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.

Latest idea: an art print celebrating his return to eating pork. [link]

I love the Hermits United tee. I think he might even find it funny.

He's into: sci fi tv, comic books (does not read actual books), messing about with his phone, angel mythology, the Army, cooking but not fancy cooking, Happy Cola gummies...

I look more rad than Lutheranism

You should be able to get sheets for $30ish at Target, I would think.

"And that's why God Almighty gave us fire insurance and the public defender".

I'll really have to read that discussion at a certain point. I think faith is the last piece of personal belief that's left with the globalization. Only you and whatever higher power you believe in know what's in your heart when you're praying (or not praying). There's a reason I say about myself that I'm "mostly secular". Yet, most of the people who know me says that I'm living life with a clear religious inner-feeling/guidance, and I can't disagree. There's something very methodical about the way I believe.

Anyway, as I said, I'll do so later I'm tired from the demonstration, that went awesome (met 5 people I haven't seen for a while, one I last met 6 years ago. All Buffy-people, and I was shocked that I, who knew them all from conventions/friends of friends from conventions didn't know each other), but was absolutely toothless. But mostly because the VOD has free SGA, and mmm-mm.

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

Punishingly Intricate

Didn't lisah say that there's a late-night grilled-cheese cart in Baltimore? That, too, is pretty dang nifty.

Oh, the beautiful lost days of the grilled cheese cart. It existed for a few glorious weekends and then, thanks Baltimore, the cart was stolen.

It sounds like you got two suggestions, though--iron lamp or new sheets--won't either of those do?

Sheets are out, pretty much. I might be able to score a used wrought iron lamp somewhere, but there would be a fair amount of legwork involved.

Oh, the Target suggestion was a good one. [link] No idea of the quality, though. Any thoughts on cotton/poly sheets?

I always get the "All I want is your" answer on the Christmas gift thing. Which is sweet but frustrating. Because he really doesn't mind if he doesn't get anything. Of course, we tend to buy each other surprise presents all the time, anyway.

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

Dr. Who? Sonic Screwdriver if he doesn't have one.

There's always the Awesome Stocking approach... a combination of the various "little" things he likes. A toy, a comic, some angel thing, some killer hot sauce, and Happy Cola gummies...

If you've got a Tuesday Morning around you, you can often get insanely nice sheets for pretty cheap.

Doesn't like Dr. Who. Working on that.

Hmm, I do know where there is one. Might have to give that a try.
