Many belated thanks for the birthday happies. I was up in Maine for most of last week on vacation and have only just caught up (on this thread he says eyeing Bitches wearily).
Also belated birthday happies to sj.
Congrats to Tom and Jesse on their respective good news!

Was having MA be an elephant meant ironically or was it just willfully perverse?

A dress should be tight enough to show you're a woman but loose enough to flee from zombies. — Ginger
Thanks, Tom! I was thinking smonster, but couldn't recall who else.
HI! Vortex!

Whereas you recall how Laura dealt with Eliza Jane when she messed with her little sister, don't you?
Laura whaled on a teacher? I totally don't remember that ep.

Why isn't everyone pelting me with JOY, dammit? - Zenkitty
No way man, that Anne is scrappy.
Until Anne of Ingleside, ITA, but Book 6 made her insipid.

Laura didn't beat up Eliza Jane. The incident I was thinking of was when Carrie was punished by having to rock the school bench with a loose bolt, and Laura came to help and got all wild and violent (the illustration in the book was very impressive!)

I had forgotten that! Laura kicked A!
Okay, so Anne would have the edge in a verbal battle, but a physical tussle definitely goes to Laura.

Life moves pretty fast. You don't stop and look around once in a while, you could miss it.
I LOVE than picture. She is FIERCE.

I haven't read the books since I was a kid--sounds like I need to do a reread!

Calli: My people have a saying. A man who trusts can never be betrayed, only mistaken.Avon: Life expectancy among your people must be extremely short.
From the happy discussion it has generated, it sounds like in a fight between Laura and Anne, everybody wins.
