And what's the fun in becoming an immortal demon if you're not regular, am I right?

Spike's Bitches 46: Don't I get a cookie?  

[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.

All is well that ends in pizza.

ION, I am finally on a computer newer than 1999 again.

2 Ghz, dual-core 3.5GB Ram, wheee.

To celebrate, I just watched Muppets Bohemian Rhapsody in real time on YouTube.

Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.

ION, I think this is a bad strategy for Taco Bell:

Taco Bell plans countersuit over ground beef

Won't that just give the whole thing more publicity?

this mess was yours / now your mess is mine

If you were, however, to make some playdates with other dogs or begin teaching him some new behaviors, those would be awesome distractions and ways to engage his emotional life.

Well, we bought the Kong and another treat-dispensing toy as ways to give him small distractions. Tim has been teaching him to shake (paws, not shake like shaking off dirt [he does THAT all too well]). And otherwise, we're just paying attention to him and playing with him and petting him a lot. We're watching to make sure he eats and drinks, which he is so far.

And we're trying to not "over-treat" him, because he's already chunky. So the treat-dispensing toy just gets a small handful of kibble held back from his dinner, and the Kong will get a few kibble pieces held back from breakfast.

Won't that just give the whole thing more publicity?

No such thing as bad publicity. (Well, that's not entirely true, but for the most part...there really isn't.)

“Not dead yet!”

I would rather they used recovered precious metals for some sort of memorial rather than commercial gain.

I believe the only possible term here is "ew."

Yeah, Barb, I didn't think about the fillings being in there until after I posted.

Ick.

Okay, I'm thinking about getting this skirt in black: [link] to wear with my flamey corset for a Mardi Gras masquerade thing, with devil horns (okay, it's an excuse to carry a pitchfork).

Oddly, I really don't have a decent black skirt other than a long cotton hippie skirt I wear in the summer. So -- would it go with the corset? I honestly can't tell, and I'm not having any luck finding any other plus-size black skirts that aren't (1) tiered hippie skirts or (2) pencil skirts (which I cannot wear with the buddha).

Sometimes I think I might just move up to Vermont, open a bookstore or a vegan restaurant. Adam Schlesinger, z''l

I think that the recovered silver is from a bank vault, not just any silver that was found. Still don't really like the idea. (Last time I saw that commercial was probably at least a year ago. I don't remember all the details.)

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

Chloe never did get the hang of playing (she liked dressup, but didn't play with toys),

Awwww... Daddy's girl...

I think that the recovered silver is from a bank vault, not just any silver that was found.

Yeah, that was my impression too.

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 let me tell you, that water is ICE cold!

Have you ever washed your hands in water from the cold tap in Minnesota during the winter?

So the treat-dispensing toy just gets a small handful of kibble held back from his dinner, and the Kong will get a few kibble pieces held back from breakfast.

One of the things the experts have been advising for portly cats is to put all kibble in a treat dispensing toy, make 'em work a bit for their suppers. Dunno if that would benefit a dog.
