No. You're missing the point. The design of the thing is functional. The plan is not to shoot you. The plan is to get the girl. If there's no girl, then the plan, well, is like the room.

[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.

Art Crawl!!!

Man, Teppy - that just sucks.

I hope one of your more annoying cow-orkers volunteers.

move out and draw fire

In the subject line? What did she put in the body?

Um, this might be tacky, but I've got a list. Are you willing to travel? Also, jesus, Steph's Mom, can't you say he was up on the roof first?

this mess was yours / now your mess is mine

Also, jesus, Steph's Mom, can't you say he was up on the roof first?

Ahahahahaha!!!!! I wish I had thought of that when I replied!

What did she put in the body?

"just found out - OMG! he died in his sleep last night. just talked to [cousin] -- she's with Aunt W."

I guess there's no graceful way to lead into that, but still.

Tep, I'm glad you know that joke...it'd be hard to 'splain.

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

I guess there's no graceful way to lead into that, but still.

I don't know. It could have been the knock knock joke.

Trying to see the half-full... nope, still not working.

Again, I'm sorry, Steph.

“Not dead yet!”

Oh, urgh, Steph. So sorry, but glad that Uncle Woody had a good life.

"It didn't taste good. It tasted soooo horrible. It tasted like....a vodka martini." - Matilda

In the context, this struck me funny.

I hope you have consecutive months of rainbows and ponies.

“Not dead yet!”

Also, would I reveal myself as having been raised by wolves if I came in here to trumpet the fact that STARS just received a 4-star review from RT Book Reviews magazine?

(Of course, ambitious soul that I am, I went from "Four stars, wheeee!!" to "Damn, why not 4 1/2 stars?")

Anyhow stars aside, there are a couple of great pull quotes out of this sucker!

All the pain, passion and consequences of first love, told from the heart of a bold, feisty heroine make this a hard-to-put-down read. Ferrer elegantly captures both the certainty and doubt of young love and combines it with the lessons of growing up and coping with change.

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

Aw Teppy, I'm glad he had such a good life.

BUT PEOPLE COULD STOP DROPPING DEAD NOW, OK!!!!!

Subject line is pretty harsh, Mom. Mine went through a phase where she kept forgetting to tell me people had died. Never a relative, but several elderly members of the church I'd grown up in. After the third or fourth one I'd start our phonecalls with "Anyone dead?" I get forgetting to mention the thing you called about but seriously that was pretty bad.
