I'MMA LET YOU FINISH

Huzzah!


I'd like to thank the academy, my first grade teacher....


So little Scotty and Snow are out?


GravatarOh good, the prior thread was beyond me. Although I have had dinner now.


GravatarTom Delay has never been shy about comparing himself to Jesus Christ. In 2001, Delay defended his none-too-subtle campaign to bring his fundamentalism to the United States Congress, "People hate the messenger. That's why they killed Christ." At last weekend's "War on Christians" conference, Delay's American Taliban allies elevated his Christ complex to the level of a crusade.

For the full story, see:
"Tom Delay's Christ Complex."

GravatarWhat's the Sci-Fi flick to-night?


GravatarMer - Saw it on a FDL comment thread about ten minutes ago. One commenter said s/he saw it on breaking news. Not verified yet...

What possible difference would it make, though? Neither one of them is anywhere near the inner circle. It's a potemkin shakeup.


GravatarWhat's the Sci-Fi flick to-night?

SS Doomtrooper! With the Parker Lewis/Mansquito guy!


GravatarWay to go chris!!!

WoooooHoooooo!!!

and about time!
.


GravatarThey won't come in black helicopters. They'll come dressed as your neighbors, asking if you really meant what you said about Iraq, or evolution, or women's right to choose. They'll leave with tut-tut expressions on their faces, leaving you to the consequences of your actions. They must be fought when they deny the least of us the rights of the best of us...


GravatarI'm glad Scotty is gone. I was about ready to kill him. He hasn't answered one question the entire time he has been Press Sec. and he's so damn petulant. At least Ari wasn't petulant. The fact Ari quit made him go up in my estimation, too, though that may be misplaced.


GravatarIt's a potemkin shakeup.

True. Might bring some more "energy" into the administration, but that's about it. The newbies are always such sycophants anyways.


GravatarI imagine that Scotty will be helping his mom in her campaign. Signatures to get on the ballot are due May 11.


Gravatar"It's a potemkin shakeup."
--Eli

You're right. Snow will probably be replaced by not-Jenna.

Scotty, by his dog Barney (or whatever the hell his name is).


GravatarI dunno. Scottie's not inner-circle, but he's the public face of the administration. I don't think they'd shitcan him if he was doing well and wanted the job. So either he's desperate to get out, or they're desperate to get rid of him.

Is Ari Fleischer's book out yet?


GravatarDid someone mention Helo's?

I can fly..........
.


GravatarTena--little Scotty got fired?

Oh my. Holden will be having withdrawal symptoms.


GravatarMaybe it's an April Fool's joke, Scotty and Snow. How could you tell the difference, though.


GravatarProfWombat--the tongue clicking resonates. I was parked in my Corolla with the "Impeach Bush" sticker next to a shopper with a yellow ribbon her giant SUV. She just shook her head at me and said, how can you be so disrespectful?

I wouldn't answer her.


GravatarWe've just had the Producers' Toast to Toast - and it's time for me to go assault the lawn, in the dim evening mists. No, that's somewhere else. It's 74 and bright sunshine here.

I wish somebody would give me some toast when I was finished.


Gravataris karen hughes really in charge of the budget?

Your response should have begun with, "Well, Lady...."


GravatarSallyh - That's the rumor - I don't know if he was fired or decided to go help his mom run for governor.


GravatarOn the march


Gravatarsallyh: yup. Get off of my cloud...

Did you like the books? They're favorites around here...


GravatarSallyh, the answer to the biddy is along the lines of "I dissaproved of Ted Bundy, another sociopath, as well."


GravatarYour response should have begun with, "Well, Lady...."

GravatarOh, and mussels marinara with capers and a heavy hand on the garlic tonight if you're still hungry...


GravatarBlack pumpernickel. Butter and last year's Desert Gold peach jam, please. Two pieces of bacon too. Oh, I love toast.


GravatarProfWombat--I loved them, and so did Mlle! She is most grateful for the addition. She loved books as a young one and still does.


GravatarYour response should have begun with, "Well, Lady...."

That would be one possible response, but that the question was framed as it was, suggests that a justification would be useless.......

There is no arguing with the 30 percenters.........minds snapped shut and all.

GravatarSS Doomtrooper! With the Parker Lewis/Mansquito guy!

That sounds not merely like it will be thrilling, but also incredibly tasteful!


GravatarNothing on the NBC site yet about it.


GravatarDarth--I just wasn't in the mood. Monsieur was rapidly approaching empty on available Diet Cokes. I wanted to get the fucking Diet Cokes and get out of there.


GravatarI was parked in my Corolla with the "Impeach Bush" sticker next to a shopper with a yellow ribbon her giant SUV. She just shook her head at me and said, how can you be so disrespectful?

I would've said, "bitch, mind your own fucking business and get your head out of your ass while you're doing it."

Well, I would've thought it, anyway.


GravatarI am honored by the thought that they may gladden a little one's heart, and the hearts of those who love her.

Pupils import torture tools to highlight UK arms loopholes


· Teenagers set up Irish company to evade bans
· Export control minister has asked for report

Richard Norton-Taylor
Thursday March 30, 2006
The Guardian
Schoolchildren have exploited loopholes in Britain's arms controls by importing torture equipment including thumb and wall cuff restraint devices and a Chinese "sting stick" - a metal bar covered with spikes.

All that teenagers from Lord Williams's school in Thame, Oxfordshire, needed was a letterhead, a mobile phone, an email address, and a little money. They also set up a separate company in Ireland to avoid British controls on the sale of small arms.


Gravatar Thers is making a pork roast for dinner, and complaining that we're running out of spices.
NYMary


What! You're out of salt?????


GravatarBreaking per NBC...

Scott McClellan and John Snow are on the way out....


Well, over at Kos, it seems the story is David Gregory reported on NBC that Bush has given his approval to Bolten to "shake things up," and Snow and Scotty are rumored to be on the chopping block.

In other words: the typical bullshit. Neither one goes anywhere.


GravatarNothing classier than Reubens with an entirely unpretentious wine, though I'd prefer beer myself. You've probably met people whose lack of pretension was in fact pretentious as all hell...

Nothing, anywhere, says you can't enjoy a cheeseburger and a coke if you also like chateaubriand with a 20 year old Margaux. And there damned well shouldn't be. Robert Christgau, in the (New York City) 'Village Voice', once said famously that any definition of great art that excludes Chuck Berry isn't worth serious consideration...


GravatarWhat is it about British schoolboys?


GravatarSomething is very wrong at the Liberal Avenger today...


GravatarI was parked in my Corolla with the "Impeach Bush" sticker next to a shopper with a yellow ribbon her giant SUV. She just shook her head at me and said, how can you be so disrespectful?

A curt "How many miles per dead soldier does that tank get?" followed by an extended middle finger is the proper response.


GravatarWhat! You're out of salt?????

He was bitching about sage, specifically.


GravatarProfWombat--my little brother, a rhythm guitarist, says you can't call yourself a guitarist if you can't play at least 10 Chuck Berry tunes.

all my spice bushes are flowering, they have a special butterly that should be showing up soon. The leaves, twigs & berries tast like allspice.

It's a beautiful thing.


Gravatar NYMary--last time we checked, he was capable of driving to the market.

Which glass of wine did you check at last?


Gravatardave--she outweighed me by a lot.


Gravatar'Three Little Kittens' will suit her just fine. My additions are better for 3-5 yo's, from my experience. Quentin Blake is an interesting character; he illustrated Roald Dahl's classic kids' books, and it's a pleasure to encounter his own undiluted sensibility...


GravatarOn the other side of the bumpersticker debate, 3 people asked me where I got mine. I sent them to CafePress.

GravatarDinner tonight here was a nice bit of steak, some simple mashed potatoes, sweet corn, some tomatoes, and a warm, fresh slice of locally baked sourdough bread.

Tasty, filling, and as I have a cold and are more than a little fatigued, really simple to prepare.

GravatarGrilled cheeseburgers here. With the famous twice-fried fries. I'm stuffed, but pleasantly so.


Gravatarsallyh: your brother is correct as far as it goes. Me, i learned how to fingerpick off Hot Tuna records and Scott Joplin rags, partly because I loved the music, and partly because nobody, even women who loved me, ever had any interest in listening to me sing. This is, I assure you, not false modesty...

GravatarRE AMERICABLOG:

Get this, John Aravosis has banned people, including me, for critiquing his takedown of Rep. Cynthia McKinney last night. I guarantee, no cuss words were involved...

Mind you, this was two days after he posted cute, "campy" photos of himself with Kathatine Harris at the Radio and Television Correspondents' dinner.

GravatarRatatouille is hard because anything with eggplant is hard. It's a very tetchy vegetable.

So good when done right. Best I've had was eggplant with garlic sauce at some low-rent Chinese buffet place out in the boonies. I have yet to find its equal, and not for lack of trying.


GravatarHe brought home 'Zerowoman.'

Uhhh... yeah. The best thing about that movie if we recall is the retarded brother, and that's not a very good part.


GravatarShithouse Rats--look, we're really sorry, okay? Please don't tell the Sewer Rats.

Try not to destroy the planet while we're gone.


GravatarNYMary--it's really not with ratatouille.

Marinated eggplant is awesome, too.


GravatarPoor Liza Minelli is a world-class basket case. I don't think all the therapy in the world could make her right. I saw an E! bio of her not long ago and boy oh boy she has got issues coming out of her ears.


GravatarNot bad with 2 Buck Chuck, for that matter.

Referring of course to the ratatouille. Just checking...


GravatarThere's a brown tabby assembly line, somewhere.

I'd lay bets on that sir!

However, my version happens to have a rather large head, and was once quite able to support a half a can of beer (16oz), when in the "Sphinx" and mellow enough to let it stay for more than an average while.


GravatarEli--Monsieur has lost it.

He brought home 'Zerowoman.'


I don't see the problem.


GravatarPeople like eggplant better if you call it aubergine. Sounds tastier.


GravatarOh eggplant is easy. You can slice it, brush the slices with oil, sprinkle them with salt and then either grill them or bake them. You can also pan fry it, and it's wonderful like that. I love it.

I grilled a lot of eggplant last summer. I couldn't believe how easy it was and how good.


GravatarEli--possibly, I won't, either.


GravatarI don't see the problem.

Shudder.


GravatarThe problem is he should've gone with Naked Killer, which is infinitely better in every way.

Probably wasn't available. I still need to see that. And Weather Woman.


GravatarI had a gray tabby, Orion, a specimen of the big sweet variety of tabby. He had a white locket, weighed about twenty pounds, and was the sweetest, most gentle, affectionate, good-humored kitty I ever met. He passed away after 17 and a half happy years. What a cat he was!

GravatarSallyh: Jeffraham--while brown tabs share many common characteristics, don't ever say they're interchangeable.

You'll get Maxx seriously pissed off.


Maxx is a Maine Coon, though... right? And he's definitely Chinese.

There are obvious physical differences in brown tabs, but you have to get close to 'em to spot 'em, generally (Curly's solid black foot-bottoms, and dark claws, for example). As a rule, they almost all have at least a spot of white under the chin, the "M" mark on the forehead, pink noses, green eyes and dark paw pads.

Of course, their personalities are all extremely varied.

GravatarNYMary - Oh look at those eyes! You're adorable.


GravatarOh boy, 70s tuxedo cowboys!

Y'all are totally missing out.


GravatarLiza's mother killed herself. Liza's still alive, active, a bit crazy. Seems to me she's doing all right...


GravatarJeffraham--Mikey's a bit fluffy, a medium hair. he's got the spot of white under the chin, black paw pads, a brick nose, and green eyes. And a perfect forehead 'M.'


GravatarNaked Killer has the "I'm going to cut off your boobs" simplified and stereotyped humor of the Chinese; Zero Woman has the Life Has No Meaning, But I have not yet found a fashionable type of suicide simplified and stereotyped humor of the Japanese.


GravatarJeffraham--male brown tabs do seem to want a lot of attention and affection.


Gravatarsally h

cluck cluck cluck....f' 'em. We can certainly take their joke.

GravatarEvenin' DWD,

nice to see you on this lazy spring eve.


GravatarYeah, Mary, those big dark eyes -- c'mon, no shuddering there.


GravatarUnitedNegroEmerates™: However, my version happens to have a rather large head, and was once quite able to support a half a can of beer (16oz), when in the "Sphinx" and mellow enough to let it stay for more than an average while.

I doubt Curly would stand for that, but I'm sure he's stout enough to support it. He's not quite "mutant farm cat" size, but he's not far from it. He's really grown since I got him, which makes me think he had to be closer to the 1-yr. mark than the 2-yr. mark that the Happy Tails folx estimated...

GravatarPeterboy--I need to wear my '9 Out of 10 Killer Robots Vote Republican' shirt to the conference tomorrow. Just the thing to wear in the airport in Salt Lake City.

I don't mind the Janeane ones so much, and a student once told me I looked like Daria (the cartoon), but I think that had more to do with my manner than my appearance.


GravatarEvening Mr. Embigulator, yes, it is a nice spring evening here as well. Sugaring time in Michigan as well in the Northeast.

Used to have a grove of sugar maples at my old house. Now we have oaks. Big, leaf-red berrie-string-acorn dropping oaks. (sigh)

On the other hand the deer, squirrels, and turkeys are kind of fun to watch.

I hope that if I need a surgeon, this would not be his/her chosen entertainment fare/philosophy.


GravatarEwwwwwwwwwwww. No, the protagonist just says that -- in fact, one of its advantages over ZW is that a lot of her ninja skills are used punishing jerks. She's trained by her lesbian mentor on rapist guinea pigs, and there's a great scene in a salon with a heartless bastard who dumps his girl as soon as she says she's pregnant.

GravatarI love eggplant cooked until it caramelizes. But I found out this summer that you don't have to grill or cook slices all that long before they are very tender. Same with sauteing or pan frying them.

I keep breaded slices in the freezer.

OK, batses, this day has been so nice. Nicest day for a week.

Going to go watch the DVD and weep over the way journalists once were - later.


Gravatar What a cat he was!

He sounds like a member in good standing of the "Calling all cats Brigade". Cat's that answer any call for a cat regardless of the cat being called.

GravatarProfWombat--my friend did make one decision, the one that was so anguished over her lymphedema.

She's decided that she's going to have reconstructive surgery. It won't help her lymphedema, but she says she feels disfigured wearing a prosthesis.

When she asked about it while scheduling her orginal surgery, she was told, you can have it later.

Her mom is selling her house and will give her part of the proceeds to get a really good plastic surgeon.


Gravatarsallyh: re Daria: funny. Gotta ask the elder wombette about her; bet she's clued in...


GravatarEvening, batses. Sounds like a good weekend day round here. I've had a nice one myself.

You're way out of your league, Funcan. You'd better just stick to lying about economics.


Gravatar(well, kinda bored this evening: Let's strike up a little fire)

And where will the seeds of the revolution sprout? That is the question that we all think about. But what is the answer? I think I found it today. It was mostly by accident and I could be wrong, but the same simple people who help elect these republicans are turning on them

The assault on pensions is not a winner for the republicans. In fact, it may be one of the most dumb things they have done. They are attacking the very racist, micro-brained fucks who elected them.

If they turn, there will be a revolution. It is happening now, can you feel it?

Gravatarsallyh: she gets a good plastics guy/gal, the results can be amazing. Good news, in that that's the sort of decision one takes when facing forward, rather than despairing inward; good on her for it, and good on you for seeing her through some dark times. There are those who treat lymphedema more aggressively; she should seek 'em out when she's ready--if she's happy with her surgeon re reconstruction he/she might be a gateway into a more responsive network of MDs than that to which she's accustomed...I'm happy for her.


GravatarNTodd--it was great fun. Unfortunately, there was a lot of splooge on the walls.


GravatarDWD,
I hate to say this, but a lot of the legislation that allowed pensions to be looted was passed during the Clinton administration, albeit by a Republican congress. It's just that it became clear, when Wall Street tanked under Bush, what had happened.

It's a fucking nightmare.

I'm really feeling a bit charitable towards ol' Ted -- not for his behavior, obviously, but because it's apparent that he really got his heart stomped, but good.

We're talking True Believers, here. And how many of these jackasses actually have pensions, anyway? Pensions are much more common among office workers, professionals, and union labor. None of these is exactly a hotbed of Wingerosity. Especially in Red Amerika, where unions are hardly a force to be reckonned with...

GravatarSallyh: Jeffraham--who among us has not, at one time or another, had his/her heart stomped but good?

True dat. However, Ted's major stomping occurred much later in life, I imagine, and he lacked the coping and social skills to work through his heartache. He's a shy guy, very unsure of himself, married late in life. His short-lived marriage and divorce destroyed him, in a lot of ways. With therapy, he can recover, I hope.

GravatarYeah, getting your heart stomped is a time-honored tradition, but it's no excuse for becoming an asshole (to anyone except the stomper).
NYMary


It is if you're a putz. But then you have to take his word for the stompage, and he is a putz, and who sez the stompage was all one-way?
I'll just stick with putz, and leave it at that.


GravatarShawk--one of my major complaints is that I'm so tired of being regarded as 'the help.'

Dubya still doesn't comprehend that the President is not the boss of everyone.


GravatarThis flick is going to need a catfight between a Hot Nazi Science Babe™ and a Hot Allied Science Babe™.

Is that all you boys ever think about?


GravatarThis flick is going to need a catfight between a Hot Nazi Science Babe™ and a Hot Allied Science Babe™.

Just sayin'


Sci-Fi needs to hire you.


Gravatar This flick is going to need a catfight between a Hot Nazi Science Babe™ and a Hot Allied Science Babe™.


Both blonde. I am confident that the narrative will indeed trend this way.


GravatarYOUR CAR'S BURGLAR ALARM WILL GO OFF AT INCONVENIENT TIMES!
Hecate Malificent


so that's my neighbor's problem. every week it goes off, like clockwork. with nothing in sight that might have caused it to go off.


GravatarBoth blonde. I am confident that the narrative will indeed trend this way.

I think the Allied science babe should be a hot Jewish brunette.


Gravatar"Private Parker Lewis... arrested."

Teeheehee!


Gravatar"Is that all you boys ever think about?
Sallyh, Madame Poissonniere "


Um. What would be a right answer to that?


Just asking before we respond.


GravatarSadly, he doesn't see it that way, and all I'm saying is that I understand that his lashing out is only a symptom for somethiong that CAN be, if not cured, at least treated.

After a break up my best friend ask the harmles question, "Do you cut off the stems of mushrooms?". I shot back, "Yeah, what of it! Am I doing something WRONG?".

Being hurt sucks, and maybe it just seems unfair that others aren't hurt too, so you try to hurt them.

GravatarEkCenTrik--ask Mrs. Ek. You appear to be well trained.


GravatarWhat about this?
Eli



Bush needs subtitles.


GravatarThis flick is going to need a catfight between a Hot Nazi Science Babe™ and a Hot Allied Science Babe™.

Sallyh, Madame Poissonniere


I'm sure they just want to see Good triumph over Evil. Or at least rip Evil's shirt a little.


GravatarIs that all you boys ever think about?

Saturday nights, yes.

But to be clear: I'd want the Hot Allied Science Babe™ to win, natch.


.


Gravatarhahaha abc news: where would jesus invest? i'm guessing not halliburton.


GravatarGood thing my car has no alarm. Can we still talk about sssssssnakesssss?


Gravatarjust a reminder

Joe Lieberman is a festering bag of assholes.


GravatarThers opines that there cannot have been a script for this film.


GravatarI think the Allied science babe should be a hot Jewish brunette.
Eli


Jon Stewart?


GravatarI'm sure they just want to see Good triumph over Evil. Or at least rip Evil's shirt a little.

Marcia can be kinda Evil sometimes.


GravatarDigger is immune to explosions!

That could be handy.


GravatarMarcia B! How are you?

We really need a girls' slumber party.


GravatarMarcia can be kinda Evil sometimes.
Eli


I'm sure you have me mistaken for someone else. I'm very good.


GravatarBeing hurt sucks, and maybe it just seems unfair that others aren't hurt too, so you try to hurt them.

agave, Friday Lover



Oooh, yeah. Been there, done that!


GravatarI think the Allied science babe should be a hot Jewish brunette.

Played by Sarah Silverman.

I'd pay good money to see that.


.


GravatarI'm sure you have me mistaken for someone else. I'm very good.

Can I rip your shirt a little anyway?


Gravatardid somebody say severed snake? unite or die.


Gravatar"the Black Sheep Squadon" rises like the Phoenix!

GravatarI can't believe there's a Private Parker Lewis. Hilarious.


GravatarMarcia B! How are you?

Sallyh, Madame Poissonniere


I have a little cold again. Since I had mono I've caught everything that's passed by it seems.

And work sucks, but at least I finally got a paycheck! Yay, paycheck!


GravatarThers sez: This is like the dirty dozen. Except their clean, there's not a dozen of them, and it sucks.

Who drinks whiskey by the gallon?


Gravatar"I like to hit people... sir."


GravatarMelissa bought a Ipod shuffle today.

Can't use it with the stereo system, BUT as we talked, it hit me.

How long will it be before stereo receivers or A/V systems have USB ports and you down load right into the Amp with your Ipod or Jump Drive?

agave, Friday Lover


This with this will more than do the job.


GravatarIs that the stuff that Robertson sells? When he is not eplaining God's wrath that is.
EkCenTriK


Atheists should all thank God for Ol' Pat. He's living proof positive there is no Christian God. If there were, he'd have been struck by lightning a dozen times by now.
Well, OK, maybe just once...


GravatarNYMary--script? We don't need no stinkin' script!


GravatarEveing bats!

Remember to spring forward tomorrow (another reason to throw the bums out!)

Just got back from seeing "Whale Rider" -- excellent flic -- but if I add it to my top ten, something else will have to go -- I'll need to think about it...


GravatarMarcia--paychecks are good, free masters' degrees are even better.


GravatarWas the impersonator's name Grace Jones?


Gravatar I can't believe there's a Private Parker Lewis. Hilarious.

Corporal Ferris Bueller reporting for duty, SIR!


GravatarCan I rip your shirt a little anyway?
Eli


You wanna be the Hot Jewish Brunette and I'll be the Hot Nazi Science Bitch? I mean Babe?


GravatarCorporal Ferris Bueller reporting for duty, SIR!

I especially liked Corin Nemec saying "We finally meet" to him...


GravatarDamn Haloscan.


.


Gravataroh, and Marcia, alcohol is a disinfectant.


GravatarYou wanna be the Hot Jewish Brunette and I'll be the Hot Nazi Science Bitch? I mean Babe?

This could work. You're still blonde, right?


Gravatar Damn, maybe that ip tunnel worked, I have been dupicating at an astonishing rate.

GWPDA,

is my clone mowing the lawn, or at least making nice with Arthur?!?!?.
UnitedNegroEmerates™


We admired particularly your work on the grassy area around the mustard seed plants and the day lillies. Very delicate there.


GravatarThe hot Allied Science Babe will be Private Parker Posey. Or Private Peter Parker, either way.


Gravatarpaychecks are good, free masters' degrees are even better.
Sallyh, Madame Poissonniere


Yay! and free BAs for the teen! My domestic partner OF EITHER SEX


Gravatarcan get a free Master's too.

Sorry, premature enter.


GravatarRandom dogfight!

Does Parker Lewis have kind of a weird lisp?


GravatarMarcia--Eli would like you to adopt him, but I don't think it's the free master's degree he's interested in.


GravatarOh, they just lifted this scene from MS Combat Flight Simulator.


.


GravatarParker Lewis: "Just can't win!"


GravatarThis could work. You're still blonde, right?
Eli


Well, yes and no...


GravatarEli--Parker Lewis reminds me a lot of Gomer Pyle, only not as bright.


GravatarOwls.


GravatarEli would like you to adopt him, but I don't think it's the free master's degree he's interested in.
Sallyh, Madame Poissonniere


But if he's my registered domestic partner he can start working on his MA in 3 months. If he's my son, he has to wait 3 years -- although the breastfeeding may make the time go by faster.


GravatarRemember to spring forward tomorrow (another reason to throw the bums out!)

Nyah, nyah, nyah, nyah!


GravatarThis with this will more than do the job.
shawk

I'll check that out more later.
But don't have that kinna bucks at the moment.

.


GravatarMarcia--Eli needs breastfeeding, for about the next 30 years.


GravatarDWD; if the Wingers around you are like that, and getting a bellyfull of Bush, that's great. There'll have to be a shitload of 'em to do us any good nationwide, though. Folks who lose their own pensions will be pissed, but the rest would have to be intellectually angered by others' loss, and frankly, that's beyond the troglodytes (unless it's family). Perhaps some Dems could make an effort in that direction, though. To the extent they'll listen to a Dem--which aint much--that might get their attention.
And as the true awfulness of the Medicare drug fiasco sinks in among the familiea of rural retirees, that aint gonna hurt, neither...


GravatarIf he's my son, he has to wait 3 years -- although the breastfeeding may make the time go by faster.

It certainly will for me...


Gravatarthis woman collected cans to put her two kids through college.


GravatarHmmm Just asked the Mrs. She said Yes.

Now I am confused.


GravatarFolks who lose their own pensions will be pissed

i'd hate to look and see how many ripped off enron workers turned around and voted for bush.


GravatarWe admired particularly your work on the grassy area around the mustard seed plants and the day lillies. Very delicate there.




Whew!!!!

GravatarWho drinks whiskey by the gallon?

I bet Duke Nukem could. And then go out and kick alien butt!


GravatarObviously CGI was more primitive in the 40's Eli.


GravatarWho drinks whiskey by the gallon?

hitchens?


GravatarThis could work. You're still blonde, right?
Eli

Well, yes and no...

Knew you shoulda bought that second bottle, din ya?


Gravatardo-it-yourself taxidermist

.......Thanks to online auction sites, artists and do-it-yourself taxidermists have stolen the spotlight from the traditional craftsmen. Instead of the usual pheasant and fish mounts, silly squirrels dressed in costumes and freakish two-headed ducks are becoming more popular with bidders. And the artists are having trouble keeping up with the demands.......


just saying

GravatarLet me politely interrupt here for a moment if I may. Your credit score can be improved although bad credit and mortgage lates are financing loans. This credit repair mortgage repair bad credit bankruptcy loan foreclosure is of course a possibility. That is rescoring for an equity loan and credit repair even if it is delinquent.Yay


GravatarAP news says that Tom Delay will not seek re-election. This from an unnamed source close to Delay.

Another one bites the dust!
