You never know if a girl's gonna say 'yes', or if she's gonna laugh in your face and pull out your still-beating heart and crush it into the ground with her heel.

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.

Sometimes I think I might just move up to Vermont, open a bookstore or a vegan restaurant. Adam Schlesinger, z''l

I cannot parse that into any kind of sense.

Me neither.

So come, my friends, be not afraid/We are so lightly here/It is in love that we are made; In love we disappear

Does she possibly mean those commie Teacher's Unions love the teachers, hate the kids?

"There are few hours in life more agreeable than the hour dedicated to the ceremony known as afternoon tea."

SJ, I feel ya on the too tired to say anything. Especially with real estate, where you are talking thru people, and not directly. If that was face to face, and I was in the right mood, the agent would feel like an inch worm could stand taller, and then I would demand my money not go into that bigots pocket. But, odds are the introvert would shine thru, and I'd just dream of all that. Good luck with the house hunt. I have my third short sale offer in. Dunno if this will pass or not. Banks just don't want to understand the market is going down. But hey, that's another story.

Good luck with the short sale. If she did say anything like that in front of me, I would have to say something, although it probably wouldn't be as eloquent as what I could make up in my head. But the way things stand it is easier to just let my realtor give her hell for me. In the meantime, we have two more showings scheduled on Sunday. I'm not very excited about either of them but maybe one will surprise me.

oh joy! Oh Rapture ! I have a brain!

It is your realtor's job - ours gave the home warranty people hell when they weren't stepping up.

but to add - when we went looking for a house I wanted a one level house - I had about 6 reasons and just because it is what I wanted didn't make it meant I should pay more.

( and I paid less than asking around peak of the market )

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.

I'm not quite sure. I know she disapproves of President Obama, and she hates the public school her kids are in. I also know she thinks that the 99% are way too focused on material things and need to depend on Jesus and quit bothering those poor billionaires.

Bob's learned to live with tragedy, but he knows that this tragedy is one that won't ever leave him or get better.

A mess indeed, askye. And despite the fact that everyone loses it doesn't sound like there is a solution.

This. What a terrible situation for everyone. Very sad.

Why did Darth Vader cross the road? To get to the Dark Side!

Maybe she's just saying that the teachers are all Democrats and the students are like--OK, not sure how the George Bush part of the equation works out. The students are all right wing reactionaries? That seems unlikely.

"Look, son, if it's good enough for Shirley Bassey, it's good enough for you."

I think teachers are like Salvador Dali and students are fish on bicycles.

Students are Gloria Steinem? Poppycock. Next you'll be saying Ben is Glory.

Maybe the students are shamelessly manipulating devout fundamentalist Christians in order to increase their power base.
