[nycfilk] Re: is this thing on



Hey all.
 Leah here.
I'm not in the city all that often, but I'll come down for house/park filk.

Or for general hanging outness when I'm not in the middle of work hell.

But might I of Jove's nectar sup I would not change for thine."

The problem with defending the purity of the English language is that
English is about as pure as a cribhouse whore. We don't just borrow words;
on occasion, English has pursued other languages down alleyways to beat
them unconscious and rifle their pockets for new vocabulary.
