KOEB Daytime Thread
This is sort of an experiment -- I am curious, first, to see if any of you ladies look into the Lounge from time to time during the day, and second, to see how quick this falls off the front page, and third, to ask you what you're going to do with your evenings ALL WEEK now we have no KO?!!! Waaaaa!

Me, I'm going to a Democratic potluck dinner tonight. Oh shit, I guess I need to bring something. What should I bring? I have nothing in the house. Preferably something I can buy, quickly and easily.

2. What is KOEB?
It sounds like a radio station call letters. I think I've figured out Keith Olbermann, but what is EB? Gees try writing in plain English sometime. And potato salad is always a good standby for a potluck. Or perhaps baked beans.

15. : )
This week I'm working on my snark. I do 50 snark-ups every morning. It's soooo hard to stay in shape.:evilgrin: (and buying potato salad, hamburgers and some cole slaw, I'm hungry and talk of pot-luck pushed me over the edge.)

lets you make a little slip knot that may come in handy......

29. Hey girls--couldn't find a KOEB thread in the GD!
But like the Lounge approach!

I work from home and you're right-you get a heck of a lot more work done when you don't have to smooze with co-workers--it leave more time to smooze with my on-line friends though! :evilgrin:

35. Hey step off. okay? If you don't love Keith enough to see
the stache, you got to get to the back of the line of Keef lovers who can handle it.
Truth is, we all have pics like that somewhere, and they amuse the shit out of our loved ones. There's no harm in that.

49. what are you guys doing over here...?
I wandered over to GD this morning to see what went on in the KOEB last night while I was participating in a RL estrogen brigade, only to find no Keef thread. So now you're going to chat about KO in the Lounge in the daytime? Oh, I can see my productivity plummeting...

for other deserving people.... as things come up.

34. Isn't it interesting that men don't seem to mind when we try the
silent treatment on them--now if you tell them they ain't getting any--well then they do seem to mind!!!!

Yes, a DU mug would make an excellent token of our appreciation for deserving individuals. And speaking of deserving--here have another KO picture:

40. Hiding in the Lounge, eh?
It won't work! I found you!

BTW: Sad news on the SpongeBob Bouncy Balls - they were sold out. I know, I should have grabbed it when I first saw it. I figure there's probably a happy class of preschoolers - or there's going to be an unusual relay race in the UW-Green Bay winter olympics! :)

PS - what's with the ugly Keith pics lately? I go to a meeting ONE night, and the whole place goes to hell.

41. Hello fabulous ladies!
Sorry I was late tonight. I can't stay. I just wanted to check in to tell everybody to watch PBS at 9:00pm for a Frontline program on Al Quaeda.

Don't worry there will be no cat fights for the rest of the week.
I won't see you all until Monday.

Have a good rest of the week everybody.

:loveya:

I just turned on PBS, and they're showing a gasto-ent... a gastro-... um, a stomach stapling.

Anybody know anyone who did this? Any success stories? (Al Roker to me looks like he's gained some of it back.)

46. huh?!
It starts at 9:00pm on channel 13 here, I'm not sure what channel/time it would be in your area. But it usually repeats on Sunday night at 11:00pm if you missed it.

here's the website:
http://www.pbs.org/
It's called "Al Qaeda's New Front"

g'night everybody!

I'm outta here!

47. Some PBS stations run off schedule
Particularly if you live in an area with overlapping PBS services.

And hey---people wanted to see the pics of the young Keith. I obliged. I promise NOT to do it again by popular demand. Well, that, and I don't want Trouble and Bunny hunting me down. :scared:
