OK, if this is first, I'll be shocked, because Hell-O-Scan has been lying like the deserter and his dark lord for the last week.
OK, I'm shocked. Let's see if this can be stretched into a double.
Whoa! Holy cow stolen base. Taking a pretty good lead out there...
He's out...no, wait! Safe at third! Can he take home....here's the play, here's the throw, here's the play at the plate...

Well done, Apprentice!
We're all about flooding right now, down below, but hey, congrats on first.
You think maybe Reverend Wright was correct? Maybe God has damned our country for all of the sin, greed and corruption that permeates from within our government???
Well, I agree with Reverend Wright with everything but the invisible sky buddy part.

Yes ... and maybe, kenosha.
Attention:
The United States of America will now be known as New Haiti. Washington, DC is now known as New Port Au Prince. If we're going to act like a 3rd world country, we might as well go full hog. That is all.
Darth, I took the stadium tour at the new DC ballpark today, so your approach is on topic for me. I was surprised how many of the people on the tour were genuinely touched by the death of Tim Russert, who they were convinced was "one of the good ones" who "played it down the middle." (It came up because he and Bob Schieffer had very expensive season tickets together and the guide knew and liked him). Maybe we are out of touch elitists?

Details are sketchy but apparently Tiger Woods has killed two eagles with his golf ball.
Okay,
I've trussed my worst 'Thuglican neighbor and dragged him as he screamed and snarled to Ba'al's altar and thrust him upon it, along with copious amounts of sweet balsam, oregano and heather to cover the stench.
As should be well and peaceful between all Atrioseans, if the god has granted my supplication.

If only it were doves, he could have gotten away with it.

But we still don't know how many White House turkeys Guckert hit in the face with his balls.
Charlie, hope the waters soon begin to subside. I live in flood plain farmland too, btw. Our last big one was October 2003.
Woods got a birdie on 17 by holeing out from off the green.
The ball bounnced twice, the second time plop right in the hole.
But we still don't know how many White House turkeys Guckert hit in the face with his balls.
We know Scott and Karl, but beyond that, yeah, it's a mystery.

There used to be a big flock of Canada geese on a course my husband worked at. They got knocked off regularly.
I never see them there any more. wonder how the course got rid of them. They couldnt have all died by golf ball.
BTW, Tiger did it while limping with a sore knee.
He had to hit two cut shots on 18 because he could not take a full backswing.
This was the most incredible golf round I have ever seen.
i watched some paint dry the other day... simply amazing!

Now, does anybody have any questions about why Obama doesn't wear a flag pin?
It's a safety issue.
We are actively looking to move as soon as we finish college, pay off all our debts and establish a professional reputation, which will be in ten years.
My husband watches the big golf tournaments. I find it's more comfortable to watch it through my eyelids.
Thanks, NTodd, it's been a little odd here tonight.
The eagle on 13 was a 50 foot putt.
They will be talking about this round for years.
Charlie, you and your neighbors are going to need clean water for weeks, not days; months in some cases until new pipes can be laid in places. There are some good low-tech methods of purifying water to reasonable standards; is anybody providing links to sites on such topics?
If not I imagine this crowd could turn up some material on short notice. YOu might want to print out things as you could lose power or net at any time.
When will Obama explain his failure to wear a baseball cap when filling sandbags?
And I aint a real big golf fan.
I will love you all forever, especially all of y'all who contributed to the eschacon travel fund, but N'Todd I would love you even more if you would post a review of my book on your site.
May Tim Russert rest in peace and may his family find solace.
I hope some day that we'll again have a national news presenter that Dick Cheney won't go to "to get his message out", one that won't assume that every conversation with the Vice President's chief of staff is "off the record" unless otherwise stipulated. With David "Karl Rove's Dancing Partner" Gregory, and others like him, standing in line to take Russert's spot, however, I think things are only going to get worse. Whatever his faults, Russert at least was not personally totally corrupt. Wish he were still around.
But I got a nose for news.
I prefer the golf tournaments to be on the east coast. That way it's all over by 3:00. This one lasted forever.

Neither am I, but I was just telling E that I really admire Tiger. I can appreciate an amazing athlete, even in a sport I'm not into.

Eagles are actually nice big targets, but it's damn hard to kill 'em. Usually have to hit 'em real square at least twice with one of those big knobby clubs before you can finish 'em off with your putter.

Did you know, Apprentice, that Phil didn't know how that clip would be used?
And have you seen the collection of Scooter poetry, O Holy Cow? An industrious transcriber reformatted his broadcasts.
As a Red Sox fan, I found it difficult understanding Phil's prolix ways. Ned Martin's home run calls were "There it goes." when a rocket was going over the monster. Or "Mercy." Dead air was okay on Red Sox radio.
But I did eventually get it. And think White was one of the best radio play-by-play guys I've heard. And the perfect foil for Rizzuto.
Spocko around? If so, thank you for the tip on flights thru Hotwire. Found one there for almost half what Priceline had. And a rental car, too. Cheap.

Dude, what's that red dining car???
montanaheadcold,
The dome occupies land that was surface parking when it was built. On the outskirts of downtown where little industrial infrastructure was in in place.
Where is the new ballpark being built? Another surface parking lot; that hasn't been industrial in an eon. But, commuter and light rail are all beginning and ending their lines in front of the new park. It's great...and it condones folks from taking their cars to the park.
They're getting this one right, I'm afraid.

You coming to STP to protest in September? I'll house you, if you are...
Worth repeating, I think??
pud got really, really drunk last night and blew chunks when he got home...unfortunately chunks is his dog.
someone in a crisis should not have the added burden of worrying about offending others.
It shouldn't be hard to not insult people for engaging in their own lives, your own crisis or no. They surely don't have to worry about offending folks, but said folks are going to react however they react and people should recognize that, too. Two way street.
Sure, pud.
Here's a resume for you. Or as they're called in the Army, for people in my range of pay grade, an OER:

Fort Lewis, WA
Palmerola AB, Honduras
Seoul, ROK
Back to Fort Lewis.
Billets from platoon through division level.
"hat is, patriot who support our soldier"
Actually having friends, colleagues, and relatives in Iraq and Afghanistan (As I do) make a difference, Pud, in how one defines patriotism. Actually being in firefights and living in jungle stink for weeks in war that is now thirty years gone turns one to a belief that patriotism also can mean getting these men and women out of Iraq as quickly as we can.

I miss what started this but:
I know i sometimes come here with my crisis of the day (student hospitalized, student assaulted, student with dead relative etc) and sometimes i get good support and sometimes people sort of move on with what they've been talking about. That's ok - I get more support than not and it is so valuable but no one needs to drop what they're doing to tend to me and I shouldn't and don't expect it.

And, between all the references to a "super soldier serum" in the Hulk, the cameos of Samuel Jackson as Nick Fury after the credits roll in the end of "Iron Man", and Robert Downey Jr. as Tony Stark in the end of "Hulk", they're probaly already working on the Avengers...

Nah, I think a lot of them fell for his McMavericky straight-talkin' reformer PR BS and think that's the best shot they've got at winning, which gave him enough votes to win the primaries. But remember: when he was running with all the other candidates out of the race except for Ron Paul, McCrash was still only getting 75% of the Repub vote.

Watching the GOP in an election year filibuster giving even token relief on gas to their constituents and instead continue to help Big Oil with the anal raping of America, I could only conclude they have no intention of remaining in office.
JeffCO, why should they? They've looted and plundered and probably plan to be on the first flight to Paraguay on 1/20/09.

They're just playing it up now for those lucrative lobbying gigs once they kicked out of office. Vote in favor of big oil/big pharma now, get huge fucking fees next year. Repuke corruption taken to an art form.

They know the gig is up- they're just trying to stuff their pockets and hoover up as much loose cash as they can before the bouncers come to throw them out.

Yeah, I also get the impression the Pentagon has had just about enough of their stupidity. Some of those in command, anyway. Of course, they could always try to pull off a pre-election crisis or teraist event that requires immediate action. But it would have to be blatantly illegal b/c no way could they get Congress to provide even a fig leaf, no matter how many goatblowing videos they have.

It does seem to be a chipmunk. But all the ones I've seen before had no tail to speak of.
Jeffraham, someday, I've got to get to Nashville and have a Fat Mo's. I will, of course, be ordering the smallest burger they serve, which already looks as if it could feed a family of three for a week.

Echidne, all the chipmunks in my yard have tails about half the length of their little rodent bodies. And we have plenty of the little critters, too, tame as robins. They're working on digging a chipmunk metroplex under the sidewalk, I think.

Ok. So chipmunks have tails. Then the question is why I thought they don't. The ones in my yard don't have tails.
fat tail? skinny tail? runs? hops?
Where is you?
fat tail? skinny tail? runs? hops?
Where is you?
Skinny tail, moves very fast, probably not hopping. I'm in Beantown.
Maybe you've got a family group with a recessive tail-less gene? Like polydactyl cats?
So much for packrat theory.

Could be. It's certainly many more than one tailless chipmunk, over a decade or so.

All my 'munks have short tails, that stick straight up, perpendicular from the ground, when they run.

hmmmm, had cat that collected squirell tails. Maybe this one is young and still fast.
we saw a marten in the mtns a couple of years ago. brown body, black fluffy tail like our kitty.
Our 'munks are also the fastest thang on four legs. And they climb trees. Cute li'l face-stuffin' bastiges.

I grazed a squirrel riding into work on the Vino, one morning. Amazed I didn't dump the scoot.

Our metroplex-building chippies are fast too, running like lightning with their tail straight up like a trolley wire. And they zip up trees when it suits them. And rob the bird feeders with great ingenuity. If they weren't so darn cute they'd be real pests.
We used to have a neighborhood cat that would lurk by the bird feeder & catch the occasional chip, and that would keep them humble and discreet for a while. But that cat is too old to hunt anymore, so the chips are as bold as burglars, the little vandals.

Have a couple that live in the karst topography of the rock in the back yard. It's honeycombed with tunnels that inter connect, they cross the creek to climb onto the bird feeder. Have barred owls that ambush them on occasion.

Good night, batz.
so far, there doesn't seem to be either a Torrent or USENET download of Expelled! anywhere.
Considering the crap that you can find on The Pirate Bay and other trackers, and in the alt.binaries groups, Expelled! must really stink so badly that no one even wants a pseudonym soiled by association.

Snake woman, a boon, please.
"What could be worse than 'Plan 9 from Outer Space'?"
"The Creeping Terror" for one. "MANOS: The Hands of Fate" for another.
Although, I've a fondness for MANOS. A couple of fertilizer salesmen in San Antonio, if I recall correctly, wanted to make a movie, complete with a "Hollywood"-style premier.
So they went ahead and made a movie with a spring powered 16mm camera only good for 30 seconds at a time, wrote a script, built sets, designed makeup, et al etc, and they made a movie and had a premier, complete with searchlights.
Compare and contrast to "The Deep". A film based upon Jacquilinne Bisset in a wet t-shirt and no bra. That's it. That's the whole point of that movie. Nipples.
I have an opinion as which of the two, MANOS or The Deep, is the better film.
Compare and contrast to "The Deep". A film based upon Jacquilinne Bisset in a wet t-shirt and no bra. That's it. That's the whole point of that movie. Nipples.
Better premise than many a movie....
Chris, Manos sounds to have merit.
OTOH, Monsieur says the only reason to watch the Deep is to see Jacqueline Bisset in a wet T shirt.
Chris, Monsieur claims that nipples are perfectly suitable premise for a film.
Call me Towelie.

Chris, Monsieur claims that nipples are perfectly suitable premise for a film.
Action, suspense, drama, comedy... Nipples can do them all, and do them well, as long as they have a chance to get into character.
jeffraham, i think you may be on to something.
"OTOH, Monsieur says the only reason to watch the Deep is to see Jacqueline Bisset in a wet T shirt."
My point exactly.
Now, MANOS is not, by any means, a good movie, it's amaturish, it's dumb, it desperately needed a script editor and a real director.
But it's also an honest movie. It's a labor of love.
The Deep is something intended to seperate suckers from their cash.
Did I send you Creeping Terror? The version I have is via MST3K, and even then, it's painful at times.
Chris, I've LOL'd twice over 'The Creeping Terror.' So bad it's delicious!
Jeffraham, how many beers have you had, babe?
Chris, I do have to get a copy of 'Rave to the Grave.' Eli has a copy but I no longer know how to get in touch with him. I'll have to look for it on Pirate Bay.
