The book was "Latin for All Occasions" I believe. I used to have a copy ... about all remember is the Latin name for Twinkies - Scintillae.Wait? I thought Latin was a dead language? Have Twinkies been around THAT long????
Giles: Stop that, you two. Riley: He started it... Xander: He called me a bad name! I think
it was bad; it might have been Latin.

Spike's Bitches 47: Someone Dangerous Could Get In
[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.

Our wings are not tired.
I hate the Tom's of Maine deodorant. Somehow, it made me smell worse than I did without any deodorant.
This is me. I tossed the stuff for that reason. Back to harsh evil chemicals for me.
Hey Strix! We love you as a woozy fruit loop. Feel free to embarrass yourself entertain us anytime.

I gave my dad a copy of that book, long ago. He was very amused by it.
Hey Strix! I'm glad everything went smoothly.

We could use some entertainment. C'mon Strix. Post some "woozy fruit loop" posts. How else will we get through a Monday??
(By that, I mean, glad to hear things went well. Heal soon!)

We won’t stop until everyone is gay.
Okay, fine, not Tom's. But I don't have a good sense of smell, so if it reeks to me, it's pretty bad.
Woozy fruit loop. That's some good assonance. Is that the right word?
Unrelatedly, listening to Proopcasts at work has me wanting to refer to my coworkers as "bro-hame" and "pumpkin butter." I wonder how that would go over? Also, I think I'm going to start exclaiming "Kittens McTavish" at random intervals.

"Look, son, if it's good enough for Shirley Bassey, it's good enough for you."
That's some good assonance. Is that the right word?
It sure is: recurring vowel sounds.

Some people are just stinky. I took a dance class in college, and there was one guy there. Came to class freshly showered every day, but poor guy had a honk on him so bad it could clog your windpipes. I assume he had some organic issue, like trmethylaminuria.

I just couldn't remember if assonance was only for words beginning with vowels.
I guess I shouldn't talk, I have one pit stinker than the other. It's just difficult working in close and very sweaty proximity with him on a daily basis.

I love that you can highlight a word in iOS, and say "Define" and it pops open a definition of the word. i tell ya. Kids today are spoiled. Back when I was a kid, you had to find the dictionary, plow through it, hope it had the word you were looking up. So easy today. Of course, today, you don't get distracted by other words around it. So... maybe I got the better end of the stick... eh. Not really. My vocab sucks. And spelling is worse.
Inspection has been set for Wednesday Morning! 9am. But the realtor says I don't have to show up until 10:15. Um. Why? Is that normal? I want as much time in the place as possible. Should I be squeeky wheel on that one?? Eeep.
(incidently, I forsee a lot of "eeps" and "woots" in the coming weeks. Pardon the repition. There is a bit of fear factor in spending more in one purchase, than all 7 years of college/grad school... and doing it alone!)
