Everything looks good from here... Yes. Yes, this is a fertile land, and we will thrive. We will rule over all this land, and we will call it... 'This Land.' I think we should call it 'your grave!' Ah, curse your sudden but inevitable betrayal! Ha ha HA! Mine is an evil laugh! Now die! Oh, no, God! Oh, dear God in heaven!

[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.

Wait, there's been freezing temperatures in L.A.?

Snerk.

Hey, I'm happy to share the misery! We are so totally done with the snow thing now, FWIW.

Our wings are not tired.

I don't think this will reduce the number of Obama crushes. Am I the last to see this? Just catching up on news. [link] For some reason this caught my attention.

Damn, Pete, I forgot to put your name on the card! So sorry.

Sean, the ice and cold is from Pete and Jilli, too. They helped.

All is well that ends in pizza.

Oh,and for those who want the xkcd with added ability to hover: [link]

Apparently my link in the immediate post after saying that you can' hover with that link was too subtle. I should have had arrows and pointers and "here's the hoverable one."

oh joy! Oh Rapture ! I have a brain!

I guess the question is -- how much more are you going to have to deal with this person. There is little chance that you will change the mind of this person. My questions is -- is he fair? When DH taught freshman english, he defined academic English -- and told his classes what arguments were acceptable and which were not ( god said so was not an acceptable argument). If the lecturer is unfair , or his biases show in grading -- you have a good case for making a bigger deal out of things. Otherwise -- I'd just quote everything back with qualifiers like "one interpretation is..."

"There are few hours in life more agreeable than the hour dedicated to the ceremony known as afternoon tea."

I have spent the morning searching for a place we can shut down this year celebrate our date-iversary on Sunday. I finally found a nice restaurant we haven't been to yet that is both open and taking reservations. Then I sent out invites to a small gathering at our apartment on NYE. The rest of the day is all about the indoor pants and reading new books!
