I was the Buffista that originally raised the point, Steph, and it was entirely as you read it. I would never mean something that patently ludicrous.
Well, I like to think not.
What? I'm not allowed to hit people? Wesley: Not people capable of genocide. Angel: Those are exactly the types of people I should be allowed to hit!

[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.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.

Thanks for reassuring me that my brain isn't tapioca. Right now I'm running on insomnia, allergy meds, and antidepressant withdrawal. I'm amazed I even know my name.

All is well that ends in pizza.
It booted fine for me, but IT sent it out since the keyboard was so messed up and they declared it a total loss.
WTH? Keyboards on most laptops are replaceable by the average howler monkey.

You should know I'm a big deal in the Resistance.
It was a strange tableau looking at my mother and her 4 brothers interact after all that time. Being of Irish descent it involved a lot of drink and getting "things off their chests".
I can imagine. You could write a play.

Calli: My people have a saying. A man who trusts can never be betrayed, only mistaken.Avon: Life expectancy among your people must be extremely short.
Quester: so sorry about your Uncle. Congrats to Niece on producing Amelia Jayne.
Laga: May your best friend's Mother's chest pains turn out to be nothing, or something easily fixed without long term consequences.

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.
Much ~ma for your friend's mom, and for her doctors, that they quickly find out precisely what is wrong, and offer the best treatment.

Thanks for the ~ma. It's not a heart attack. No other news yet.

Sometimes I think I might just move up to Vermont, open a bookstore or a vegan restaurant. Adam Schlesinger, z''l
Hil, I'd love to give you a hand if you'd want someone to email in modern Hebrew with. I've been doing so when I studied French with a native speaking friend, and it helped a lot.
Thanks, but I'm not sure that I'm at the point where I could really write more than a sentence or two. Also, I don't know how to email with the Hebrew alphabet.
Right now, I'm coming in on three hours trying to get my MacBook to even start up. I'm posting from my little netbook that I usually just use when I need to travel light. The MacBook just goes to a gray screen when I try to start up. I've been going through the things suggested on the Apple support website, and none of them work. I've just got one more thing to try before I get to the one where it recommends taking the computer to an Apple Store and having the Genius Bar people do it, and the nearest Apple Store is in Lancaster, which is a few hours away.
