Question: Will hiding in a cavern with stockpiled chocolate goods be any part of this plan?

[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.

Days shrink and grow cold, sunlight through leaves is my song. Winter is long.
I'm sorry if that's too immediate for some people. I did label it honestly. And hopefully it'll make some of us smile.

"Look, son, if it's good enough for Shirley Bassey, it's good enough for you."
And hopefully it'll make some of us smile.
I could hear her voice, so it did. Rueful, self-deprecating, wry, funny.

"And that's why God Almighty gave us fire insurance and the public defender".
So there are a few things I should do with leads for future potential work with linked data/archives (which is what I'd like to explore next in my career). I was just handed the contact details of one of the contact persons. Her name is Ita. After this week, after this year, after Ginger, my heart sank.

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.
Hugs for you, if you want them, Shir.

Herding cats for fun
and I think everyone has forgiven me except the cat.
Oh Ginger. How I shall miss you. One of the smartest, funniest and kindest people I have ever had the pleasure to meet. I will never forget your quote about how you lusted for book shelving space more than others did for diamonds and cocaine.
Good bye, fare well, see you on the other side. Go ahead and pet Squeaky for me.

Always Anti-fascist!
Pat Conroy once wrote that sometimes the hardest thing about being a liberal is the people you have to be friends with. Shockingly, I don't even think he's met any disability rights people, but they are who I think of when I think about that.

> It doesn't surprise me that Ginger helped so many because she was very kind and helpful to me. I just didn't consciously know how many others she helped because she did it so quietly. It just hurts that life wasn't kinder to someone so giving.
Yes.

Sometimes I think I might just move up to Vermont, open a bookstore or a vegan restaurant. Adam Schlesinger, z''l
So far, four students have done this: they see their average grade on the online gradebook, and then they email me begging for extra credit or something that they can do to get a few extra points, or asking me why the grade hasn't been curved like I said it would be, without having first logged on to check the actual grade that was recorded for the semester. If they had done that, they would have seen that the grade was curved, and the grade that they're begging for is the grade that they already have.
