Death is your art. You make it with your hands day after day. That final gasp, that look of peace. And part of you is desperate to know: What's it like? Where does it lead you? And now you see, that's the secret. Not the punch you didn't throw or the kicks you didn't land. She really wanted it. Every Slayer has a death wish. Even you.

Spike's Bitches 48: I Say, We Go Out There, and Kick a Little Demon Ass.  

[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.

She sounds like a blast.

Good to see you.

You were a wrong baby who grew up wrong. The wrong kind of wrong. It's better you hear it from a friend.

Just tonight I watched a special on animals in Indonesian waters. The mantis shrimp made a stabby appearance of death. They also sent a camera down a mantis shrimp burrow - they're surprisingly long, up to a couple of metres at least.

Compassionately intolerant

Much kitty ~ma on the way.

A question for folks who know the bible:

I am officiating a wedding on Tuesday and the couple has asked me to come up with a nice scripture to be read during the ceremony...not 1 Corinthians.

Do you have any favorites related to love and/or strong partnership?

Ruth's got some good stuff, the wither thou goest and all that. And it's about Ruth refusing to leave Naomi all alone, not romantic.

"This bar smells like kerosene and stripper tears."

Isn't Song of Solomon supposed to have some romantic bits?

"And to be clear, I am the hell. And the high water."

How do you know you have a bad bra fit? (white fonted for bra bullshit)

- when one of your nipples peeks out under a cup of the bra. Apparently my need for a real bra fitting has hit Alert Level Red.

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

Flat-out filthy bits more like.

Unusually and exceedingly peculiar and altogether quite impossible to describe

Do you have any favorites related to love and/or strong partnership?

Ecclesiastes 4:9-12 is nice:

"Two are better than one, because they have a good return for their labor: If either of them falls down, one can help the other up. But pity anyone who falls and has no one to help them up. Also, if two lie down together, they will keep warm. But how can one keep warm alone? Though one may be overpowered, two can defend themselves. A cord of three strands is not quickly broken."

Also the passage from Ruth that Connie mentioned [link]

"Where you go I will go, and where you stay I will stay. Your people will be my people and your God my God. Where you die I will die, and there I will be buried. May the Lord deal with me, be it ever so severely, if even death separates you and me."
