Meetup has suggested I join a group called Creative Soapmaking and Cocktails. Honestly. The soap would totally ruin the cocktail. And vice versa, I'm sure.
Duh. That's what makes it creative.
Anybody can be a prop class clown.

[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.

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

Why did Darth Vader cross the road? To get to the Dark Side!
I was thinking that it's probably better to finish the cooking-with-lye part of the soapmaking before you start swilling the cocktails, but other than that it sounds fun.

Every now and then, I think I might actually be a little odd.
Cook-lye and cock-tail sound too much alike when I'm drunk.

Our wings are not tired.
So I locked my office and headed downstairs to walk home. Then I see a large number of police cars blocking all the streets. I walk 4 blocks to my route and ask the officer if I can walk home. No m'am, there is a man with an assault rifle in the area. Seek shelter. So since I can't get back in my office now I am hanging out in the bank lobby.
And Bobby at home with my office key and car can't leave of course.
Also, yikes!

And apparently they got him because only one block now closed. And I'm walkin'.

Made it home without incident, but omg warm! It is only in the mid 80s, but I am a sweaty mess. Now for the pool quickly.

So glad you got home safely, Laura. Egad, what is happening? Why all the threats of violence lately?

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.
Is it heightened response, or heightened threat?
I'm seeing a number of posts on my dash complaining about how not a national tragedy it turns out to be when people are randomly shot doing their business in New Orleans.
No idea what factors could play into that...

I'm not disagreeing ita, because LA also has more than it's share of shootings that generate zero public interest. But when I said threat I was refering more specifically to things like calling in a threat to shoot up a school, or even that ex-cop who decided to start taking out a few of his former employers. I feel like there's been a lot of that lately. People looking to get a reaction.
