During summit on International Economic collapse, Bush serves $500 bottles of wine
Dr. Turk he wants to empty out the wine cellar before the new tenants get there.

attaturk, i wrote a post about the feast of pigs on the last thread and guessed at $500 bottles of wine...and i was right on target! where the hell did that numbers runner go?
Worked for me.
Dumbya has medals, I no longer want them.
portia try again.

truly exemplary & selfless behavior---good omen for the rest of your day!
enjoy the day comrades, the lab mix wants to drag me out into the dismal hudson valley november rain...
Shouldn't someone be pointing out that had we not ponied up the $700 billion, or $2 trillion, or whatever it is, we'd be looking at a financial situation that's exactly like the one we've got now? Except, you know, we wouldn't be out the dough.
Some WaPo staffer wrote a blog post as Barney. I didn't bother to read it, as having lived with a number of Scotties, I know they would not bother to blog.
its supposed to be 88 & muggy today in SoFla (record highs forecast), with what the ;ocal newsies laughingly call a cold-front coming through tomorrow. I'll believe it when I feel it
The Scrabble app on Facebook does not work for me.
:sigh:
HoneyBearKelly
thanks - it's not downloading the pictures, etc.
I'll try later.
HBK, ql or V mentioned that earlier about Scrabble.
Scrabble app = Scrapple?
HBK it was down for maintenance early this morning, but I was just able to play.

Well, shyeah! Why would the Elect drink anything else? They're not suffering!
ideological conservatives make lousy journalists ... it's that simple
If I was still in the business, I wouldn't hire one and I'd work to get rid of any I discovered working on my staff.
I'm a bigot, I guess.
"So, I see you went to Regency University. Thanks for applying. Next."
plantsman it could be that it never did work for me.
Sometimes FB acts funny on this laptop.
Or it could be FireFox.
Quien sabe?
Your defense of the "free market" was a joke, Dumbya. You only made things worse.
You will drive the whole world to embrace and kiss Socialists.
ms f- you have three people waiting for you to play a turn in scrabble. Though from what i'm reading, it is down right now.
V4V: Did you get out to watch the shuttle launch last night?
Bush is looting the WH wine cellar? This must stop.
mofo it's positively gorgeous up here, although we're forecast some chills for the next couple of days (lows in the 40s, brrrr!).
What I love about being an early riser: I've been to the farmer's market (scored almost 2 weeks' worth of veggies for $10), had breakfast, and still have an hour to fuck around before I have to start work.
Yay, me!
kiss Socialists.
I'm puckering up & on tip-toes.
Meanwhile over there.
AGHDAD (Reuters) - A car bomb killed 10 people and wounded around 30 others when it exploded outside a car dealership in the northern Iraqi town of Tal Afar, Iraqi police said Saturday.
The U.S. military confirmed the death toll, but said initial estimates of the wounded put their numbers at 20.
The U.S. statement added that the car bomb was driven by a suicide bomber, but Iraqi police said the car was parked.

[sigh]I am always a day late, and a dollar short.
Didn't Dumbya make a speech about what a great success story the Iraqi town of Tal Afar was? A car bomber just killed 10 and wounded at least 20 there.
V I'll start a game with you for testing purposes.
For the new thread:
Finally, a magazine for the Eschaton trolls
Car-bomb coke to HBK.
Gromit -- yes, it was really cool. When they launch at night, it's like a small sun rising way to the south over the ocean, and then it erupts with this huuuuuuuuge stream of fire following it; when it's really dark you can see the SRBs fall, tumbling, into the ocean.
And a couple of minutes later you get the sound, which yesterday you could feel in the deck under your feet.

again, like plantsman above, truly exemplary behavior. Role model stuff (fight image of old Charles Barkley commercial here)
HBK great!

Remedying the Bias Perception
The Post and other news media can work harder on eliminating even the perception of bias while never giving up the willingness to follow stories that will inevitably tick off some readers.
One more factor will kick in soon. After Obama is inaugurated, he will be the authority the news media challenge. It happens in every administration.
Well, no, it didn't happen during the Bush administration until his approval ratings tanked! Bush got a pass for all his mistakes and war crimes - for years!!! They carried his water!
Shame on the Wapo!

Lime Rickey
On Trotsky's Scale of Leftiness, I have moved from about a 6 (JFK) to about an 8.5 (Bukharin) during the last eight years.
The scale is logarithmic, so a move from 6 to 7 (Kucinich) is a factor of ten more lefty.
You left Obama with a real fucking mess, Dumbya. He's got one leg tied behind his back before the race even starts.
Why can't I see any invitations to Scrabble?
I'm in Karl Radek's neighborhood, D.D.; I can see Trotsky's villa from my front porch - no icepicks approaching (YET).
Marcellina, you probably know better than me, but schmuck is Yiddish (and maybe German) for ornament.
Scrabble stopped working for me at the end of the summer when they revamped it. But I can play Scramble and Pathwords with the Atriots.
David Derbes, Schmuck is the German word for jewelry in this case.
Well, I'll just use the time honored phrase that is so comforting to me....fuck it.
ms f in the lower right of your screen you should see "notifications" (it's a little index-card thingy).
click it.
They just love their delusions in MediaLand, don't they, portia?
Have any of y'all stopped to think that even the most innocuous of our posts would disqualify us from a job in the BHO admin? Curse you, search engines.
Aha. Well, jewelry is not so far from ornament. Thanks, Marcellina.
My daughter is nearly fluent in German, but I know about four words only.

he drank a case of the $500 wine?

I'm pretty sure even Obama wouldn't pass that job application.
Come to think of it, mofo, if you can see Trotsky's villa, by the Palin Theory of Knowledge, that makes you a member of the Politburo!
don't know the first thing about this guy, but his c.v. suits this panel well:
Damon Silvers has served as Associate General Counsel at the AFL-CIO since September 1997, where he has represented the labor movement before the Securities and Exchange Commission. He also chairs the Subcommittee on Concentration and Competition in the Treasury Department’s Advisory Committee on the Auditing Profession and serves on the Treasury Department’s Investor’s Practice Committee of the Presidents’ Working Group on Financial Markets.
Tovarich! Land & Bread, Baby!
I hear Joe the Plumber wrote a book. Sarah probably corrected his spelling and grammar and shit.
What words would I use to describe another dimension that occupies the same space and time that we are in, but is only slightly different?

Traditionally, among sci-fi geeks, that's a parallel universe.

megisi
She talks about the hundreds of letters she gets from conservatives. No mention of libs complaining all these years about the war hawkish WaPo. Even Tweety called the Post hawkish. sheesh.
She's a hack.
Florida!! maybe not, we're real different, in a not so good way. (dammit, I said "we").
Near-parallel universe?
ina -- are you still thinking about the DC trek in January?
We need to decide whether to pull the plug on the thing or wait a bit longer.
Not sure how long facilities will be available, is all.
Shafer Cabernet “Hillside Select”
i knew it would be some overpriced napa trophy wine. what were they serving? mammoth?
i knew it wasn't 'screaming eagle,' 'cuz the retail is only five hundred.

Oversight boards are nice, but when can we have the death squads for bankers? I swear they will not stop playing this game of "loot n' scoot" until they have watched a few of their number dance the Tyburn jig.
Why try to raise wages and living conditions worldwide? Drag the American worker down so's he only getting $49.00 an hour for picking lettuce.
Say, there's a new Genesis box set just in time for Christmas ... and only $100+!
If Bush really gave a fuck about the economy, he woulda had the expensive wine re-canted w/ MD 20/20 & sold the good stuff to local raised-pinky watering holes. Fuck, Sarkozy probably thought the expensive stuff was swill, anyway.
Meh. We can skip rthe communist revolution IMO, I just want to see some hangings.
Debout les damnés de la terre
Debout les forçats de la faim

Nous ne sommes rien, soyons tout
C'est la lutte finale
Groupons-nous, et demain (bis)

There was a Soviet era joke where Breznhev show his mom around his apartments in the Kremlin, gets the driver to take her out to the dacha, then the villa on the black sea, then some other luxury spot. "So mom" he asks, "how do you like it?". "Nice son, but what if the communists come back?"

Arise ye prisoners of two parties

Say, in honor of the socialist Muslim senator elected president from my neighborhood, perhaps I should replace the Chicago flag at right with the Hammer and Sickle?
Maybe da Mare, Richard M. Daley will just substitute the famous Red Banner for all the patches on the cops' shoulders?
You never know...
ina we can haz both!
OK... how do people in Sci-fi novels slip between parallel universes?
"Nice son, but what if the communists come back?"
Revolutionary councils turn into ordinary oligarchies pretty damn quick.
pay not attention to the new sheets
change.gov:
My take is that they want truth disclosure, not that whatever you disclose wily necessarily disqualify you from a position.
And, of course, some positions are gonna be more sensitive than others.
In the recent Dune recapitulations, the ghola Duncan Idaho does some fancy flying in a no-ship to do it.

Well, that's where imagination comes in -- in scifi it's usually a device; in fantasy, it's magic.
So whether you use a TARDIS or a magic door set into an old willow tree, it's all a deux ex machina to get the story moving.

A hard belch will usually be enough.

I liked the one proposed in Get Your War On: A white flag with a picture of the American flag on it, burning.
Man, that was a funny vid.

i like the way you think.
i'm interested. i don't know yet if i'll be able to swing it, so i can't commit.
As if on cue, NPR is doing a piece on the old Depression song, Brother, can you spare a dime?
Once I had a railroad, made it run,
Made it race against time,
Once I had a rairoad, now it's done,
Brother, can you spare a dime?
Once I built a tower, to the sun,
Bricks and rivets and lime,
Once I built a tower, now it's done,
Brother, can you spare a dime?
Can we uze the D word, nao?
Bush is an idiot even when it comes to wine.
There are many better bottles at half the price. This is price driven because of its perceived scarcity, not its quality.
