[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.

I wish I could just go somewhere to get flensed but none of the whaling ships near me take Medicare.

I want to tweet the links, etc. but I just found myself wondering whether Hollaback would be upset since it seems to be incorporated. [link] Have you already investigated that?

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

I don't really understand your question, Spidra, but I'm in touch with Emily May, the founder of Hollaback. She gave Hollaback Israel her blessing.

That's what I was asking. I didn't want to tweet the URL and find that my tweeting it got you in trouble with someone when you might have been trying to fly under the radar on the name. Cool!

Oh, alright! Well, thanks, then!

And good night, board.

You should know I'm a big deal in the Resistance.

Sweet dreams, Shir.

We won’t stop until everyone is gay.

Woo hoo Shir!!! So excited.

And amyth, I said this elsewhere, but I'm so happy your brother's surgery went well.

Just saw RED. Damn, that's a fun movie.

Amyth, I'm so happy for good surgery.

Shir, when you wake up, I've spread the word via fandom (I have a fair number of Israeli connections there), and I'm really proud of you for doing this.

That's terrific, Shir!

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.

Random true neurology fact - singing comes from a completely different area of the brain than speech, and brother-of-amych's cover of "That's Amore" was probably less slurred than his speech.

That might explain why when I have pulled too many all-nighters, and I get so tired I can't talk, I sing everything I need to convey. Innnnnteresting.

This is why I'm a terrible parent-- I'd be more proud that a five-year-old knows a classic like "That's Amore" than worried about being in trouble.

Maybe it's because I am not a parent, but I don't see anything wrong with teaching a kid that there are some rules like, "Don't stand up on the tables in the lunchroom and grandstand" that are more about what is convenient for authority figures by way of liability issues and crowd control than about what is actually good and right. At an age more sophisticated than 5, perhaps. And until the kid does reach that sophisticated age, I'd probably just say, "We have to follow rules for our safety like not standing on tables, and we have to listen to teachers/lunch aides/administrators, but you already had your punishment at school, and that is enough." I don't think that makes me a bad prospective parent, and I already think you are a good parent, Barb.

Yay, Shir! I'm glad you've got Hollaback Israel online, even if I can't read it!
