Vektor and I had lunch together today!

[XemaSab]

We went out and had Thai food, then we went to Mervyn's, then we went and got coffee!

It was awesome!

We heckled everybody except John Kerry and Howard Dean!

:P

(And she is fucking HYSTERICALLY FUNNY and sharp as a tack)

[XemaSab]

1. Why is this a dead thread???

I am going to play Frankenstein and give it LIFE!!!!

BWAHAHAHAHA!!!!!

[WCGreen]

2. Did you put sugar in the coffee......

Inquiring minds want to know....

[XemaSab]

4. I had a triple mocha

She had a pumpkin latte.

I don't put sugar in regular coffee, but we had to show the Redding Starbucks that we're liberal and proud by ordering fancy espresso drinks.

[WCGreen]

5. There you go.....

Show them your true stripes....

[XemaSab]

7. With pride, Sir!

:patriot:

[Crazy Guggenheim]

3. Where did you go for coffee?

[XemaSab]

6. Eh, Starbucks

It's Redding.

I don't even know if there ARE any coffee places that are local and not drive-through. :shrug:

[Oeditpus Rex]

8. Wish I'da known

I woulda stood you to about eight double espressos each if you'd gone afterward to the Record-Searchlight to get seriously liberal on an old nemesis of mine.

[XemaSab]

9. Yeah?

Who's that?

I think we were about ready for anything after the caffiene!!!

Oh, and in case you didn't see on the other thread, we had 5.08 inches of rain today!!!!!!

[Oeditpus Rex]

10. Jeebus!

Glad it fizzles out some by the time it gets down here. We'll get an inch, tops.

The old nemesis was my editor at the Monterey paper about eight years ago. He's at the R-S now... or was the last I heard. Dude needs a few truckloads of liberal delivered up his ass.

[XemaSab]

11. The Penlight?

They're not TOO bad. They try for fair and balanced.

Why did I think you were like 22? And if so, how can you have worked at the paper in M'ty 8 years ago??

[Oeditpus Rex]

12. It's a pretty good paper

Scripps papers usually are. But he's nine kinds of idjit.

22. :rofl:

I should just let you go right on thinkin' that. :7

[XemaSab]

13. I have seen the blog

I am no longer in ignorance....

[Oeditpus Rex]

14. Mine?

Shoot. Dinna think about that. :banghead:

[XemaSab]

15. I'm sorry

Well, if it's any consolation, Vektor asked if i was 24.

:P

[Oeditpus Rex]

16. Ohyeah, that makes *me* feel better

Excuse me while I go change into my "evening underwear." :eyes:

[XemaSab]

17. Hey, I didn't say being 22 was GOOD

22 year olds are assholes!

[Oeditpus Rex]

18. Maybe, but

at least they've got time to grow out of their assholitry.

Whereas I suddenly feel like I should have a urologist on speed dial.



(I am so changing my MySpace profile.)

[XemaSab]

19. I hear ya

2 weeks ago Vektor responded to me out of the blue and said "Hey I live in your town!!!" and I was like, uhoh.

TMI on the net, yo.

[Oeditpus Rex]

20. Yeah, I saw that

I was so jealous. Nobody lives here. :cry:

[XemaSab]

21. You live in Elbow

Maybe you should move to a more urban area, like Bakersfield. :shrug:

I think there are only three other DU'ers in this whole half of the state.

:hi: Porcupine, mike_c, and Vektor!

[Oeditpus Rex]

22. I've actually considered Bakersfield

They've got a real good family-owned paper, and houses are cheap. And I could get the Dodgers on teevee. :bounce:

'Course, it's also Nashville West... :puke:

[XemaSab]

25. You don't want to live there

Trust me on this.

What county do you live in now?

[Oeditpus Rex]

26. San Benito

Third-poorest county in the state. :evilfrown:

I've seen some really nice parts of Bakersfield, on the west side. Seen some crappy parts too. On the whole, it'd be a step up.

Hey, they've got minor-league baseball and hockey. :bounce:

[XemaSab]

28. San Benito....

I remember you saying this before, but I didn't remember whether it was eastern Mty, southern Sta Cla, or San Bto.

You probably have better weather than Bakersfield, and I'd guess fewer Freeptards, but feel free to edumacate me about that if I'm wrong.

Bakersfield smells. :P

[Oeditpus Rex]

31. DU just bit you too, huh?

I thought the post I made before this one wasn't gonna make it. It just sat there for like a minute.

We've prolly got fewer Freepers than B'field — it is in The Valley, after all — but we've got our share, since this is also an ag town. (About three months ago, two factions of the local RCC were fighting among themselves and it got in the papers and everything.) There's an "In Black" group that stands at a downtown intersection every Friday in silent protest, and across the street are a group of Freepers telling them they're wrong. :eyes:

What does B'field smell like? Ag stuff? I'm used to that.

[XemaSab]

32. Oil and cow shit

:P

The smell of money. :eyes:

Yeah, DU just funked out for a mo... when are they supposed to update GD?

[Oeditpus Rex]

33. Gotta be downright pungent

when it's 110 degrees.

[XemaSab]

San Benito....

Bakersfield smells. :P

[Vektor]

37. I want to be a 22 year old asshole again.

Dude, I'm WICKED old.

[XemaSab]

39. Wicked old, eh????

Hardly... you're still young enough to be John Kerry's daughter, and call him daddy and MEAN IT while you're under his senatorial desk live on C-SPAN at three in the morning when you think nobody's watching!

[Vektor]

40. I think you just made something very bad happen to my pants.

Or, very good, perhaps.

"...call him daddy and MEAN IT "

I believe my uterus just imploded. GAWD, whatta mess.

[Robeson]

23. Who is "Vektor" and who are you......

...I've never seen either of you around here before....:P ;-)

[XemaSab]

24. .

:P back atcha... you're up early... or late...

[Robeson]

27. This is usually my time. I'm in full force on DU from around 1:00 AM to..

...to 5:00 AM. Otherwise, I just chime in here and there when I get the chance...:hi:

[XemaSab]

30. Why that time??

Work??

[Robeson]

34. I'm self-employed, and a night owl by nature...

...plus my wife works as an RN on the night shift, so it's easy for me to adjust my schedule to hers!

[Vektor]

35. OH SHIT.

I just made a nearly identical copycat thread.

WITHOUT SEEING YOURS FIRST.

Weird...

[Vektor]

36. You were a saint.

You listened to me talk about Kerry's man missile for FOUR HOURS and you are Deaniac.

That is HUGH!!!11!!

You are like my Mother Teresa...

[XemaSab]

38. Dude!

I almost spewed macaroni all over the keyboard!

:D

[Vektor]

41. Sounds painful.

Was it through the nose?
