I saw a Confederate flag hanging from the back of a pick up truck the other day. And it was a truck with Vermont plates not an out of stater.
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.
PA was Philadelphia on one side, Pittsburg on the other and Alabama in between.
DING.
Except now, Philadelphia has more crazy flash mobs. Whee. A local reporter for the onion had her leg broken during one last weekend. It's... kind of gobsmacking.
Hil, you're in Pennsylvania right? James Carville in The War Room famously said that PA was Philadelphia on one side, Pittsburg on the other and Alabama in between.
Yeah. I'm almost exactly at the midpoint of the state.
Southcentral PA? Unfortunately not.
Well, I guess it goes well with the copy shop around the corner from me that's got an entire wall plastered with Tea Partyabilia.
I also saw a Santorum sticker on a stop sign, and I was unsure whether is was a statement in support of Santorum that just happened to be on a stop sign, or if it was supposed to be read as "Stop Santorum."

For a while someone put stickers saying "the war" on stop signs around southern Durham. I haven't seen them in a while.
I've seen stickers saying "Driving" on stop signs in Chicago. Put up by pro-bicycle groups.
I just got back from something I'm actually willing to call a first date. My age, RPCV (was in Ghana while I was in Moldova), doctor, have overlapping pop culture interests (and he expressed excitement about my recommendations), looks kind of like Moby (not necessarily a bad thing), no huge red flags... we exchanged phone numbers and both said we'd like to hang out again. I, being me, am worried that I won't be attracted to him. But (rarely) for me, I think there's potential for me to find him cuter as I get to know him better. No fireworks, but he accidentally brushed my arm and I felt a tingle (not a squick). So that's good. And I hugged him goodbye.
He's one of those rare birds that saw Serenity and never knew there was a tv show involved. Of course, Firefly was one of my first recommendations.
eta also, he likes live music and lives right by Frenchman St. Woot!
Sounds promising, smonster!
Aw, yay! Hope the second date is even better.
Reads a lot, grew up on comic books, volunteers abroad in a medical capacity, and, um, his mouth does this cute quirk-to-one-side when he talks.
