javachik, it sounds like the world was enriched by having him in it, and an emptier, sadder place without him.
Now, I can hold a note for a long time...actually I can hold a note forever. But eventually that's just noise. It's the change we're listening for. The note coming after, and the one after that. That's what makes it music.
Host ,'Why We Fight'
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.

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.

"And that's why God Almighty gave us fire insurance and the public defender".
Does that make sense?
It does, dear. There is a sense of shared sorrow - I didn't know the guy, and frankly, couldn't remember you wrote about him earlier. Yet, just by reading your touching words about him I felt sorry -for you, for his family, for the world - for losing a man like this.
And this is just me, kquadzillion miles away, never hearing about Uncle Steve right about... now.
So I get how you feel. And it's really, really, really OK. {{}}

And then Ortus came and said "It's Ortin' time" and they all Orted off into the sunset
I thought for sure we'd talked about Norway's spontaneous interdimensional portal here before. Maybe in Natter?
(Yeah yeah, Russian rocket spinning out of control. BO-RING.)

Our wings are not tired.
Ugh, ChiKat. I hope the ick is behind you.
Hope the worst of the strep is in the past too. I seem to be immune to strep. People around me get it all the time but I never have.
We have achieved junk food! I'm ready for football. Kinda. I'm so pleased it is such a picture perfect day here for all the tailgating and such.
Trying the mobile pet groomers today. They happened to be at a GF's house and it sounded like a good idea. It has been years since Brandy has been done by a pro because she freaks out when she is away from us. This way they will be in my driveway and I can hold her paw. I probably could have stayed with her in the groomer's place too, but I never arranged it. Her paws and ears will be grateful for the attention. I don't do a great job of it.

I thought I remembered it, Jess.

I understand there is some sort of sporting contest today.
I thought so too. And yet, all that we hear of America in the news here today is about the explosion in CT. Everyone's alright?

Wow, I'm the one telling the news of the U.S. to Americans now?

The status is NOT quo.
What!? In Waterford? That's where I lived and worked for years, and my many of my family members live!
