Gunn: The final score can't be rigged. I don't care how many players you grease, that last shot always comes up a question mark. But here's the thing. You never know when you're taking it. It could be when you're duking it out with the Legion of Doom, or just crossing the street deciding where to have brunch. So you just treat it like it was up to you—the world in balance—'cause you never know when it is.

F2F 2: Is there anybody here that hasn't slept together?  

Plan what to do, what to wear (you can never go wrong with a corset), and get ready for the next BuffistaCon: New Orleans! May 20-22, 2005!

What is even happening?

where is the proof?

See. We all participated. We don't need proof.

It's a vast left coast conspiracy; that's what it is.

There are lots of pictures....Just because we aren't posting them or sharing them doesn't mean they don't exist.

If a tree falls in the forest and no one hears it, does it make a sound?

The feeling you get when your brain finally lets your heart get in its pants.

How can a curse that is already working not be in effect until tomorrow?

A turkey in every toilet -- only in America!

Kosher bathtub?

The only reference I could find was here. It has to do with a cleansing ritual during a woman's period. The "bathtub" is not in one's home, but in a special location under Rabbinical supervision. It's unclear to me if single women even need to do the ritual. In other words, don't worry about it!

t on edit - just read natter Or you just get one-o-them kosher sponges. In any case, it doesn't appear to be very difficult.

echoing Deb's bathtub anxiety. Our tub will be clean for Nilly's visit, and, you know, that's a pretty special occasion in and of itself.

Heh. Off to read Natter.

What is even happening?

Jon is talking about a mikvah, which is a ritual purity bath (and you can't usually take one at home because it has to be living water, and there's a lot to this lalalala...digress) a woman must take after her monthly (and after giving birth and other stuff...). I don't think that's the issue, here.

I am guessing that either to ensure there is no mildew (there's lots in the Torah about mildew), or to kosher-clean a tub a menstruating woman could have once used, a certified cleansing agent is probably needed.

OK, that can be part of the post-airport pickup grocery run. s'cool. Nilly knows what Nilly needs, and we'll handle it when she gets here.

X-posted from an email I sent this morning (which I've not received yet, so, um, maybe I didn't send it)

Boston area plans (so far):

Monday night- gathering at Tom and Nora's with party snacks and party beverages. starting 7:30ish.

Tuesday day - I don't know. Some sort of sightseeing, I'm sure it will be arranged on Monday night, or something. I can't participate, so am not taking the lead on this.

Tuesday night- hanging out and having dinner in Brookline/Harvard Ave / Coolidge Corner area. Time and place of dinner TBD.

Lee! Allyson! joking about kosher sponges? Have you no shaaaaaaame? I've gone full circle and will spaz no mo'.

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

If a tree falls in the forest and no one hears it, does it make a sound?

No, it just lurks and supports other trees in email.
