I'MMA LET YOU FINISH
Rudy is a putz.
Governor of Alaska!
Nosferatu is done. No chance.
Just got back from hospital visiting dad. He now has an artificial hip to go along with two artificial knees. He is doing well.
NY has a Senate spot opening as well. I guess the appointee will have to run in 2010?
You've been robbed by Paulson, we don't need guiliani at the trough too.

Gov. of NY?
Brahahhahaha.
.
If voters don't support that effort, then it will merely be proof that they're out of touch with the mainstream. C'mon, voters - this is a center-right nation. The teevee says so, so it must be true. Let's get with the program, voters!
Is anyone else having a problem with killfile on Firefox 3.0? Seems
like today is a real good day to have it working.
Rudy!
Harper's Magazine has an excellent article on why Bushboy & Co. should be prosecuted for their many crimes after they leave the WH.
While the list of crimes is long, the one that the author thinks is most prosecutable is the Bushboy/Cheney decision to torture, in violation of the U.S. Constitution (No cruel or unusual punishment) and the Geneva Convention, a treaty to which the U.S. is signatory.
It might take years, but it will set a terrible precedent if the Bushboy WH group was never held accountable for their heinous crimes.
Who the hell is going to vote for Giuliani in New York? His more than 15 minutes are up.
Rudy Giuliani is too absurd and too full of it to be considered for anything but a female impersonator.
I'm sure once he explains how he put his Terror Command Center in the city's biggest terrorist target, people will love him!
bye for now!
Afternoon again.
Are we still playing with trolls?
It might take years, but it will set a terrible precedent if the Bushboy WH group was never held accountable for their heinous crimes.

Weren't that little new yorky boy who spent my money last time?
How you get a-rude and a-reckless
Don't you be so crude and a-feckless
You bin drinking brew for breakfast
Rudi can't fail!
Rudy is American's MAYOR, not New York's Governor. Duh.
I like Rudy, he is entertaining and he bravely walked around New York after 9/11. Unlike those other people who walked around New York after 9/11.
Nine ELEVEN.
9/11

BOO!
To fat Terry C, with love.
Something natural and beautiful and they make it sound like a chore.
Terry C - Yes We Did! | Homepage | 11.22.08 - 3:52 pm
It is a chore for sure with a fat broad. I mean you have to move rolls of fat away with your hands to even have a chance to get it in. And you say it's not a chore. You should know better.
from below: She does art as her source of meditation.
People have asked me about that a lot. For me, there is a lot of back of the head activity when I paint. Others' mileages may vary.
Yeah, I'll go with you, if you have nothing better to do.
Not actually looking at CoT.
You missed out baby.
Rudy is qualified for Governor of New York.
He DID cheat on his wife.
Just got back from hospital visiting dad. He now has an artificial hip to go along with two artificial knees. He is doing well.
How old is he?
Was rehab a lengthy process?
I'm sure once he explains how he put his Terror Command Center in the city's biggest terrorist target, people will love him!

Not true! The city's biggest terrorist target is the Golden Gate Bridge. It's in ALL the movies. The bad guys are ALWAYS blowing up the GG Bridge! I think that it is in the super villian handbook or something.
Oh, of course the Empire State Building is second. Then mabye the White House.
Of course the Superman Villians redid mount Rushmore, but that is rare.
mer, if you get a chance and you still have her site up, check on, under her "creations," Number 78 - 87, especially No. 82. This was the first doll she designed, and she entered it into a juried show. She took 2nd place (not bad for first time, although she spent so much time on it, she felt she should have scored 1st. LOL. Artists.). The doll is completely anatomically correct, which is why she can't place it on a mirror at the shows, because it shows the opening of her vagina and anus.
When I told her she should put some her down there, she said, "Nah, this warrior princess doll shaves it clean."
Repost...
You should have heard my 1st grade teacher's comments about my drawing of black bears in the black forest on a dark night.
There was a play I saw 10 years ago on Broadway called "Art". It was a comedy about three friends, one of which who had bought a painting consisting of white brush strokes on a white canvas. It starred Alan Alda, Alfred Molina and Victor Garber. Funny stuff.
Oddly enough, a few years later, I went to a big art gallery in San Francisco. Low and behold, one of the paintings in their collection was a white on white painting, which you wouldn't be able to distinguish from the prop that was in that play. Evidently, every so often the artist would come in and "rework" it. Good gig.
I have to admit, I'm not one for modern art.
Anything that gives our Res Ipsa fodder for mocking Rudy is reet by me...
"Harper's Magazine has an excellent article on why Bushboy & Co. should be prosecuted for their many crimes after they leave the WH."
--Rudy
I read that. That guy really did his research, enough footnotes to choke a horse.
I say go for it.
How old is he?
He is 77. In 24 hours, they had him on his feet and walking. He gets released on Monday and will rehab at home for 6 weeks.
No fat woman should ever say it's not a chore to fuck them. Because it is a chore.
Isn't the Golden Gate Bridge in California instead of Gotham? or do I have my bridges confused? Anyhoo, I'm selling the Brooklyn Bridge on eBay if anyone is interested. 99 cents a pound.

But he did it for a good purpose! He was trying to find the WMDS to protect America. And, according to Brian S ussman, they got a lot of useful information out of waterboarding (which, by the way, is not torture.)

I went thru a white on white phase in grad school. My prof kicked my ass and made me stop. I walked past a major gallery here in town not two weeks after he ordered me to stop and lo and behold....white on white paintings.

What part of "go fuck yourself" didn't Rudy understand?
Many portable consumer electronics contain proprietary, often lithium-based batteries. These batteries last only about 500 cycles before losing large amounts of their capacity. Production of these batteries is usually stopped at around the same time the product is discontinued,[citation needed] therefore rendering the product worthless once the batteries start to wear out. While battery packs can be rebuilt and fitted with new cells, this is either too costly or too time consuming for most consumers.

Yes. The GG Bridge is in SF. NOW. But in the future Magneto moved it to New York. It turns out he bought the Brooklyn Bridge and moved it to Alaska.
But seriously, in the disaster movies The GG Bridge is right up there as symbols of the US. It really should be stuff in D.C. But movie makers know that the Visuals of the GG Bridge being destroyed are cooler.

Is somebody profiting from this puppy cam?
After the art show, I splurged and took Audrey to lunch at our local Tapas bistro (San Chez). We had some wonderful bread, saffron rice fritters, black bean cakes (spicy!), empanadas, and a stuffed relleno with chips.
And I had the absinthe with Cava champagne.
What a wonderful way to spend the early part of an afternoon.
In addition to the Clay Woman items I bought, I also found a woman who makes and sells shea butter soaps (delicious) and soy candles, and an artisan who makes stained glass, and also does pop art necklaces.
As a stocking stuffer, I bought Audrey a necklace from this woman with the pop art depiction of Obama in purple and blue. It fucking ROCKS. Audrey was drooling over it.
I asked her if she did any for McCain (and especially Palin), and she said, "HELL no! Palin is not worthy of my creative mind!:

But I hope to Goddess that they don't do it. I was just at Superdickery and they have become overwhelming ad heavy makes the site hard to get around. I don't mind ads, but when they get in the way of the content they just reduce the value of both the content and the ads.
My marketing brain thinks this way and I hate it because it is figuring out how to take advantage of "eyeballs" (I'm sure someone has done an Ad Busters ad about, "We deliver the eyeballs!" with a bowl of actual eyeballs and an ad for Norman's Cow Parts and Pig Products.

My wife of 29 years is overweight, many would call her fat. I've always found most people to be beautiful and often find myself in awe by the beauty of those around me.
It is only when people open their mouths that I can see ugly. I have seen stunning women transformed immediately right in front of me.
My wife, on the other hand, is more beautiful every day. I am sure that Terry C. is as well.

I watched the movie Changling last night. It's really good.
I read a bunch of reviews and I wasn't the only one to see the way that the woman whose son disappeared was treated is similar to how our government treated Americans. Lying to them, working hard to convince them that black was white.

The NY GOP's bench is so thin that Rudy! is considered a viable candidate -- because of name recognition, fund-raising ability, and the possibility that he can get some of that white ethnic vote in the outer boroughs and suburbs.
Of course, given his incompetence as a candidate and a mixed political/personal record that New Yorkers know more about than any, he's be lucky to get within 10 points of Paterson, or if he falters for some reason (the state budget is an awful mess), Andrew Cuomo.

Dayum that sounds good - by sugar syrup do you mean simple syrup (1/2 sugar 1/2 water)?
All Biryanis are cooked with Basmati rice delicately flavoured with herbs & spices together with the meat or vegetable to allow the flavours to infuse together.
Served with a vegetable curry to your required strength. Hot, medium or mild.

Biryani, biriani, or beriani (Nastaliq script: بریانی; Devanagari script: बिरयानी; Bengali script:ी
is a family of primarily South Asian rice dishes made with spices, rice (usually basmati) and meat/vegetables. It was spread throughout the Middle East and South Asia (and Southeast Asia to an extent) by Muslim travellers and merchants, and is very popular in India, Pakistan and Bangladesh.
The name is derived[1] from the Persian word beryā(n) (بریان which means "fried" or "roasted".

Bag of frozen blackberries
1/4 of sugar and table spoon of flour
Mix until you can't see the flour
Pour into deep pie crust with half a lemon squeezed on the bottom
Ligthly cut up some butter on top of that
Cover with a pie crust
Then add 1/4 cup of granulated sugar on top for crunchy
Back 475 for 20 minutes then down to 350 for another 20
Let rest and cool.

Largely, it was the press, I think, that made it possible. If the press hadn't treated him like the frat boy that he was, and had actually investigated his background and done a vetting of him on the public's behalf (gee, part of their job!), they would have discovered much of his background and found that he had pretty much screwed up everything he touched, was profoundly indifferent to the rest of the world, that he was hardheaded and obstinate, that he was very duplicitous, and that he had a mean streak a mile wide.
Had people seen the truth about him, well, maybe they would have rejected him in the first place. At least, had the public gone ahead and elected him, we would have been forewarned, had the press done its job. Instead, there was a neverending stream of stenography about Gore's lack of truthfulness which came directly from the Bush campaign.

She suggested the least I could do was send the widow a condolence card. I did, and a few weeks later I got a thank-you note from the widow with a personal signature.

Yes! I think orang utan is a person of the forest.
It saddens me that these wonderful creatures may disappear.

Pretty much it was non-stop TV coverage up through the funeral - or do I imagine this?

Oh, yeah, I got a card back, too; I think it's upstairs in my childhood scrapbook.
Can you imagine the number of cards they had to mail?
still have it?

No, I don't.
45 years is a long time, and I've moved around a lot since then, paring my possessions down to the bone the last couple of times.
But I still remember.

completely.
our tv station showed the president's photo in a frame!!! surrounded by black crepe bunting (or a 'curtain?') for hours after news signed off.
"Or do you spend your life here?"
Seems like it doesn't it. Yes, I am horribly lonely guy. No life, no family, no job, no reason for existence.
Now that I have lied through my teeth, does that make you feel vindicated?
"No, I don't."
ah, too bad.
Whoever is namestealing incog is a stupid shit. I mean real stupid. I think it is ronjazz. Which leads us to simels. Stupid!

I didn't *see* it; I heard a noise that sounded like a jail door clanging shut, and then a lot of loud voices and stuff, so that's when I looked up.
I do remember the news guy saying "He's been shot! Lee Harvey Oswald has been shot!"

That's how I remember it. I was glued to it, too.
For the older farts here, 45 years ago today, November 22 1963 where were you when you heard the news?
Home from school watching afternoon movie on CBC station...they interupted movie and I thought it best to wake my mother who slept during the day (cos she worked as a clerk at cartage service at night after Dad came home from Edison's) She shooed me away first time, but when the movie didn't come back on I knew it was a big deal. When she started crying I knew something bad was happening.

didn't they pump his heart manually trying to stop it of course putting pressure on his just blasted abdomen?

Nonstop from about 1 PM Friday till late Monday night, I think.

I'm not old enough to remember Kennedy, but used to rush home from school to watch the Watergate hearings. I was in 4th grade.

My dad had gone to Media, Pa for his brother in law's funeral.
My Uncle Buck had died of stomach cancer the day before JFK was murdered. His funeral was held on the same day as JFK's, so Dad stayed up there the whole weekend.
Alll the relatives were sitting around watching the TV coverage and he said he had a feeling that someone was going to blow Oswald away.

There was only like four or five stations then right?
It's actually astounding how rapidly Oswald died.
Or maybe not.
Two shots in the gut. Dead in minutes.
It doesn't usually go like that.
they would have discovered much of his background and found that he had pretty much screwed up everything he touched, was profoundly indifferent to the rest of the world, that he was hardheaded and obstinate, that he was very duplicitous, and that he had a mean streak a mile wide.
The media knew all that. I believe they thought if a goober like Clinton could be president someone like W, with his pedigree, sure could. He was gonna surround himself with fantastic advisers so really it didn't matter. Plus, tax cuts. Not only did the media know about W's lack of qualifications they spun it as a good thing. Bastards.

Will always remember John F. Kennedy, Jr. saluting his dad's casket as it went by.
Heh, my mother and I share almost no political opinions. Her politics are somewhat to the right of Attila the Hun.
The exceptions, however, are notable.
She firmly believes that FDR was a saint who saved not only her family, but her country and the rest of the world.
She also believes that the American experience is the best thing since sliced bread and that with a little effort it might bring humans to the next rung in the evolutionary ladder.
I get my deep love for this country from her and from my socialist father.
Go figure.
I love the Youngstown Kid. I think ronjazz is icky. Billy B too. And I think Vicki should mate with simels and save us all.
Vicki and simels, a match for the ages.

but even if only one i'm sure the 'plan' was that he was toast.

Gee, was I always a news addict?
I was with my mother in the living room, home sick form highschool. My family were news addicts. My parents adored JFK, Irish, Catholic, liberal, sort of. They were from the Eleanor Roosevelt wing of the party but they liked the younger Kennedys too.
There was only like four or five stations then right?

In Philly we had three network stations on VHF, 3 UHF channels and of course an 'educational TV' channel.

I remember some asshole talking about Bush's "pedigree" after he'd be handed the presidency by the Supreme Court. I reminded him what happened to people with "pedigrees" in 18th Century France.

did you see that live on PinaYouTubo?
In the Library at Foothill College. One of the Librarians made an announcement. Chior went ahead that night with its rehearsal with the SF Symphony.
Was watching the TV when Oswald got shot.
Most places had three stations only, ABC, CBS, NBC. Big places had four, with PBS. (New Orleans had 4; the last being WWNO, maybe, the PBS station.) A few (Chicago) had also an independent station.
New York City may have had six, but there were only 13 available channels, IIRC, as UHF was not yet available.

I wonder sometimes if that WAS the case.

When Bobby was gunned down in 1968, I remember even the 3 UHF stations in Philadelphia were carrying the coverage.

I can remember when Reagan was shot. I was standing outside the school waiting for my mom to pick me up and someone said there he had been shot.

Yep - 3, 6, 10. The educational channel was 12.

I'm wrong. Wikipedia says Ruby fired a single bullet.
I was in the middle of an advanced German class in high school in eastern Washington state. Announcement came over the intercom. Since this was Pacific time, it was around 10:30 a.m., I think. By noon, we'd already been told that he'd died and buses were waiting to take us all home.
On an air force base, it was a very somber weekend.
The odd thing is that, at the time, there were probably plenty of people in the Air Force top brass that must have been secretly pleased that Kennedy was gone. But, there was nothing to indicate that at the lower command levels.

I wish someone had asked Sarah Palin about whether she believed in plate tectonics (continental drift) and the time scale required to produce the existing distribution of continents?

Yes. I was crying.
We had one station we could get pretty well most of the time, and two others that were iffy.
Diane -- my mom and I were similar to you and yours, and I got my passion for my country from her, as well.
Yanno, I was kinda gifted and shit and she was always on about me thinking for myself and asking a lot of questions.
In later years she laughed at how different my politics were from hers, but she understood how I got that way.
And although she was a lifelong Republican, she was pro-choice and an environmentalist. And she was devastated by Kennedy's assassination, although she couldn't stand the guy.
Run Run Rudy
Yep, our media adores Giuliani -- but they also love Fred Thompson, Mike Huckabee, Mitt Romney, Sarah Palin, and Karl Rove.
The media just have a giant jones for the GOPers -- the more right wing the better -- they dominate the print media, the Sunday talk shows, and cable teevee news 24/7.
Please, make them stop!

Hi guys, back after dinner
I was in 7th grade when JFK was murdered. The loudspeaker came on and announced to the entire school that the President had been shot. We were all taken to the adjoining church and were saying a rosary when the bells began to toll.
It was the first time I saw a boy cry.
I was watching TV when Oswald was shot. Knowing what I do now, I would opine that had he taken a bullet to the abdominal aorta, he would have bled to death in five or ten minutes.
Giuliani is obviously a mean spirited little psychopath BUT on 9/11 when our president cowered and there was no leadership exhibited, he did step up and be the PR face of national presence
he did a good job that day.
of course, part of the reason for the seriousness of the disaster -- like the loss of hundreds of firefighters because they couldn't be contacted on their mismatched radios -- like putting disaster control in the WTC so he had a convenient pied a terre for afternoon delight within walking distance of his office -- was the result of his p poor leadership.
but he did step up on that day and that was a good thing.
Is governor something Rudy wants. How about Judy. No money in being guv and damn little power, except the power to get your face on TV. Of course his gig as conduit of Homeland Security money might be drying up so who knows. I am pretty sure however he wants the money.
