I work in a fairly high traffic section of the city and I routinely see people sort of launch themselves off the curb without looking to see if anything's coming ... this in a town where red lights are regarded more as hints than as instructions. But we have one guy who runs several times a day - he wears headphones and will run in the street; he routinely will stop in the middle of an intersection - really, right in the middle of the four streets - and hop around in a circle, yelling. He's been doing this for years - don't know why he's never been hit.
Bunch of wanna blessed-bes. Nowadays every girl with a henna tattoo and a spice rack thinks she's a sister to the dark ones.

[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.

What else besides ramen can you scoop? YOU CAN SCOOP THIS WORLD FROM DARKNESS!
YAY NO CANCER!
Happy anniversary, JZ and Hec! I think you got married around the time I joined the board and I wondered what the hell was going on. Wedding simulposting, what?

omnis, pursue. That's an order from a shy woman who can use M-16. - Shir
Boggles over the lack of self-preservation instinct in that guy that omnis saw.No shit!
OK, wish me luck. The madness of work is about to begin. A $500,000 event. With rumored special guest who can't be named flanked by secret service (yes, we had to get the prop gun approved, just so there wasn't an incident).

And my dad is so cute - he just called to say, "YAY!!" and then asked, in a very timid voice, "Does this mean I might get a new grandbaby soon?" SO CUTE!!

THIS GUY! He's amazing and, surprisingly enough shows no signs of diminished capacity...except for the whole dancing in traffic thing. He's ripped-o-rama, and seems perfectly cognizant if what he's doing. I suspect massive show-off-itness...but maybe he's just glad to be alive.
