KOEB Meeting 8/11/08 Please Let's Talk About Something Besides John Edwards Tonight Edition

[Berry Cool]

Even baseball...



:hi: Join us!

[Patsy Stone]

1. Hi!

Not here, but taping. :hi:

[SeattleGirl]

3. Hi Patsy!

:hi:

[Patsy Stone]

9. Hi, SG!

:hi:

[SeattleGirl]

2. Hi Berry! Happy Monday, y'all!

:hi:

[Berry Cool]

4. Hi Pats (even though you're not here) and SG.

:hi: We get Peppermint Keith tonight.

McGrampy says "My opinion about the situation in Georgia is...I hope to win there in November."

[Berry Cool]

5. Oh, and hurry up everyone, check out the stickies atop the board now!

[SeattleGirl]

6. I know! Pretty cool, especially with Keef up there!

[Berry Cool]

8. Keeff was what I MEANT!

I put him up there. :rofl: Just my luck someone had to come along immediately afterward and spell out "OBAMA" using five stickies at once. Otherwise Keith could have stayed up there a lot longer before scrolling off.

[Patsy Stone]

11. :)

They're both very cool. :hi:

[Berry Cool]

16. Yeah, "OBAMA" is cool too.

We should do a "KEITH" card stunt with stickies.

[Patsy Stone]

42. And he's still right up at the top of the page, too.

Or sticky puppets.

[SeattleGirl]

12. I knew it had to be an EDV who did it!

:rofl:

[SharonRB]

19. I love the Obama stickies!

I posted me and Gore yesterday, as well as my stuffed polar bear watching Gore on TV (although I had to make it really, really tiny to get the file size small enough to post).

[Berry Cool]

33. Very cool, Sha-Sha

:hi: and Hi to you too!

Love the graphic of McGrampy moving toward Bush to embrace him. That was an inspired idea. I predict we reach goal in record time.

[mohinoaklawnillinois]

7. Hi guys..

:hi: :hi:

McCain and Cheney are certifably insane. Do they want war with Russia?? From what I see the Georgians were the ones who started it, not the Russians.

[Berry Cool]

Of course they want war. When don't they?

:hi: Hi moh!

[SeattleGirl]

13. mo!

Nice to see you! :hi:

[SeattleGirl]

10. Hey George!

SHUT. THE. HELL. UP!

Scolding another country for invading a sovereign nation.

Oh they hypocrisy!

[Botany]

20. Dive by Blog

I saw him w/ Costas and W was a mess ..... history of baseballs .... China needs religion .....
We are working for peace.

NBC pulled the youtube.


BTW Did i ever tell you that you are my Fav?

[SeattleGirl]

24. I had lunch at Ivar's just last week.

:hi:

[Berry Cool]

35. Hi, Bot.

:hi: That was when I turned on my Mad Men DVDs...

[Berry Cool]

41. Indeed.

Your "SHUT. THE. HELL. UP!" reminded me of something else that made me fall apart laughing today...when Randi played the clip of the born-again guy who used to be gay or something, who was telling some interviewer that there was a time when he's screw anything that wasn't tied down...even a WATERMELON. He said something about "Well, if it was warm and wet inside..." and implied that he might screw a washing machine if it was warm and wet enough inside.

OMG...that was sickly funny enough, but then Randi followed this immediately with her sound drop of Keith yelling "SHUT! THE! HELL! UP!" I thought I'd never stop laughing.

[SeattleGirl]

43. That bit got me to laughing too!

I'll say one thing: the "Family Values Party" is often good for a laugh!

[SharonRB]

46. I heard that, too

Randi was cracking me up today. The stream kept cutting off, though, and I missed a lot.

[RevCheesehead]

49. Did I tell you about CC trying to hump the watermelon on the floor?

Happened while I was in Minneapolis. He accidentally got locked in the garage until the cat sitter came the next day. Once she found him, he came tearing in the house and straddled the watermelon on the floor. Poor Sue laughed for days.

[Berry Cool]

69. CC tried to hump a watermelon?

I didn't think cats liked fruit. :rofl:

[RevCheesehead]

73. Shocked me, too.

And I've been a bit leery about slicing open that melon. :)

[Patsy Stone]

108. There went the $100K video

:rofl:

[RevCheesehead]

14. Yeah - that story is getting so tired already.

Did ya hear wazzizname say that Edwards cost Hilary the nomination? :evilgrin:

:hi: Hi, everyone.

[SeattleGirl]

18. Rev!!!

Howard Wolfson said it, I believe.

:hi: :loveya: :hug:

[RevCheesehead]

23. Girl!

Yeah - I told Wolvie on Friday that it wouldn't take long for Hilary to make it all about her. :eyes:

:hi::hug:

[Berry Cool]

22. Hi Rev darling!

:hi: Well, I can see how some people might see it that way. As Randi said, "Rielle Hunter's not the only one who got screwed."

[RevCheesehead]

26. Hi Berry.

I'm thoroughly in PMS mode, and really don't give a crap about anything anymore. Except you guys and Keith. :hug:

[Berry Cool]

44. Aww.

:hug: The sentiment is returned, my dear!

[Botany]

29. Did I ever tell all of you that you are my Fav?

Please don't tell the others

Some men just have to try to please all kinds of women ...... telling 'em
stuff too ..... J. Edwards turns out to be mortal ... move on. BTW Hillary
would never have got it she started out @ 48% negative rating (Dem, R, & I)

[RevCheesehead]

31. Cuddles!

I guess now you're really my Favre. :cry:

[Botany]

34. Hey the Jets have Green in their logo = Green Bay

[RevCheesehead]

40. And I'm green with envy.

At the local parade on Saturday, the Packers Lambeaulance was in it... everyone just sat there. The guy (on the mike) says "Any Packers fans out there?" and one guy cheers. Then he asks "Any new Jets fans here?" and a whole bunch of people, including me, start cheering.

Dumb. As. A. Republican. :banghead:

[Berry Cool]

51. Sorry, Rev. I really did think the Pack would see sense.

But in the end I'm not all that surprised.

[RevCheesehead]

59. Thanks Berry.

Just like the chimp at the Olympics: Everything looks perfect from his point of view. :eyes:

[SharonRB]

15. Hi, everyone

I'm here live from Dream Cruise week. It's already getting insane up and down Woodward Avenue.

:hi:

[SeattleGirl]

21. Hi Sharon!

What is Dream Cruise week?

:hi:

[SharonRB]

28. It's the biggest car cruise in the world

The actual event is really only one day -- next Saturday -- but people come from all over the country (and the world in some cases) starting today. The cruise runs through a number of suburbs for 17 miles of Woodward Avenue. It's hard to describe if you've never seen it. This is the 14th year. All kinds of classic vehicles drive in the cruise, but it's not limited to classics. Traffic is murder around here all week, but Saturday is nearly impossible.

[SeattleGirl]

32. Oooh, I'd love to see that!

And I would probably avoid driving too!

[SharonRB]

39. Hubby and I went out for a while earlier

while it's still at least passable.

I've been trying to get Patsy to come here for the Cruise for a few years. She loves classic cars.

[Patsy Stone]

60. And one year

I'll actually make it! :hi:

[SharonRB]

72. We should plan a KOEB meet-up for the cruise one year

We'd have a blast!

[Berry Cool]

25. Cool. And here we get Rachel.

So nice to have intelligence back on my TV after being blindsided by * during the Olympics.

[SeattleGirl]

17. RACHEL!!!

:loveya: :loveya: :loveya:

[ralps]

27. Hi BerryBush, Hi Everyone! Is that a photo of Keith when he was 20??? Hug

:hi: :loveya: :hug: :pals: :woohoo: :hug:

[SeattleGirl]

30. Hi ralps!

Oooooh, my fav kitteh gif!

:hi:

[ralps]

36. Hi SeattleGirl!!! I'll have to see if I can find another one!

:hi: :loveya: :hug: :pals: :woohoo:

[RevCheesehead]

37. Oopsie - Aaron Rodgers just got picked off.

Welcome to the NFL, buddy.

Hi, ralps. How are you and Crook doing tonight? :hi:

[ralps]

45. Hi RevCheesehead, Crook & I are doing good & Hi to Oreo, CC & lil' Keith! Crook

has his annual check up on wednesday, so We'll find out how he's doing! :hi: :loveya: :hug: :pals: :woohoo: :shrug:

[RevCheesehead]

50. Does your vet give kitty treats?

Mine did, and it kept CC looking for more. :)
Best wishes, Crook! :meow::hug:

[ralps]

67. No she doesn't & she was the vet that thought Crook had a heart murmer!

:hi: :loveya: :hug: :pals: :shrug:

[RevCheesehead]

74. Give Crook some tuna after his vet visit,

and be sure to tell him how very brave he was.

[ralps]

81. I sure will! & please give your kitties Lots of scritches & tummy rubs from me!

:hi: :loveya: :hug: :pals: :woohoo: :hug:

[RevCheesehead]

83. Will do!

They'll love it. :)

[Patsy Stone]

47. As Keith said...

"Aaron Rogers? THE Aaron Rogers?!?"

:hi:

[RevCheesehead]

53. Exactly.

:hi: Good to see you, Pats.

[Patsy Stone]

56. Lovely to see you, Rev.

I'm here, but at the moment I'm watching synchronized platform diving and getting interested in it -- like you do for 16 days every four years. :)

[RevCheesehead]

61. Well, OK....

but if you start watching water polo, I'm checking you into the clinic.

[Patsy Stone]

64. Turned the channel on it

several times already. But I did find myself watching a soccer match between Argentina and I don't remember who -- in Spanish.

[RevCheesehead]

70. Rumor has it the chimp was gonna watch water polo...

but decided not to, cuz he didn't want to piss off the animal rights activists. I guess he thought the horses used scuba gear.

[SeattleGirl]

76. .......

:rofl:

[Berry Cool]

78. I don't suppose there's any YouTube video of the men's swimming relay?

NBC would yank them down immediately, I guess. But I missed it and I understand it was something to see. I wonder if they'll replay it in prime time tonight. Is that a dumb question?

[SeattleGirl]

80. It was pretty interesting, that's for sure.

[Patsy Stone]

107. It's on the NBC site:

http://www.nbcolympics.com/video/player.html?assetid=0811_hd_swb_hl_l0194

[Berry Cool]

48. Hi, ralps!

:hi: No, actually that picture is only about 11 years old. It accompanied an article about Keith's fantasy baseball team (so far he's leading his league, much to the consternation of Jason Bateman and Tim Goodman).

[SeattleGirl]

38. Um, how can there be no politics in the WH when the Prez is a

politician?

Where all kinds of political things happen?

Did I miss the memo?

:shrug:

[Berry Cool]

54. I like these "MSNBC Tonight" ads. Very wise, considering some people are under the misperception

that they will be off the air during the Olympics.

[bleever]

52. Best pic of McCave I've seen yet:

:hi:

[Berry Cool]

57. OK, THAT IS IT.

Now we KNOW Keith loves the Rev most of all. He used the founding of the GREEN BAY PACKERS as his historical note for Oddball!!!!!!

[RevCheesehead]

63. It's still a pity shout-out.

But I'll take it anyways. :loveya:

[Berry Cool]

87. If you're gonna have that attitude, you'll never come out ahead.

:-) You KNOW Keith loves you best. And not out of pity. Heck, we should have used the Cheesehead graphic of him last week.

[Patsy Stone]

58. Karl Rove

as the Great Gazoo? :rofl:

Did he make that just for you? :hi:

[bleever]

68. Yes he did;

he just doesn't know it! Isn't that wonderful?

:hi:

[Berry Cool]

62. Hi bleev!

:hi: That is an excellent piece of Swamp Rat work, is it not? And so appropriate, considering Grampy's age.

[SeattleGirl]

55. OMG! Keef is givin' the Rev some more lovin's!

:*

[RevCheesehead]

65. Keith, dear....

Thanks for trying. I really do appreciate it. :hug:

[ralps]

71. SeattleGirl Here's another kitty gif!

:hi: :loveya: :hug: :pals: :woohoo:

[SeattleGirl]

77. Hehe!

Looks like a prototype for a robot kitteh!

[SeattleGirl]

66. I'm sooooooooo glad that ad shows Chimpy and McSame hugging.

[SharonRB]

75. I've been waiting for him to use the hugs in an ad

This one is great!

[SeattleGirl]

79. Yes, especially because they used several different images

of him hugging the Chimp.

[Berry Cool]

84. Excellent work on their part!

Well, Jonathan Alter shot the "Hillary woulda won without Edwards gumming up the works" meme out of the sky. Cool with me.

You could say she would have, but as he and Keith pointed out, there are so many variables, you can't know. It's the old "Yeah, and if my aunt had balls she'd be my uncle" argument.

[RevCheesehead]

85. Or as Scotty said,

"Aye, and if me grandmother had wheels, she'd be a wagon."

[Botany]

82. Thank you Jonathan

Hillary had huge negatives to start w/ & over 80% of the
Edwards support went to Obama.

Wolfson, Penn, & McAullife ran a bad campaign .... end of story

[RevCheesehead]

86. They also didn't have the greatest of candidates.

Let's not forget. :hide:

[Botany]

91. Her speaking style was kinda rude

BTW The Pack is looking good ...

[RevCheesehead]

93. They're a great team.

With Brett, they'd be in the playoffs, no doubt.
This year.... ???

I promise I'll stop pouting in a while.

[Botany]

100. Stop on by

I am having Brats and fresh tomatoes (Brandywine & Cherokee Purple)

[RevCheesehead]

102. Did you grow them yourself?

I love men who know how to play in the dirt. :)

[Botany]

106. Yes I have a Brat Farm

:rofl:

[Berry Cool]

90. To this day, I am amazed thinking of that crew of incompetents.

[SeattleGirl]

88. Ooh, ooh! I saw "The Dark Knight" yesterday in IMAX!

OMG! I could have turned around and watched it again as soon as it was over! Great movie!

(And yes, THIS IS NOT ABOUT KEITH OLBERMANN, so spank me!)

[SeattleGirl]

89. Randi was playing that clip of the Faux Noise idiot on her show today.

What a freakin' tool!

[Berry Cool]

95. How dumb does Angelina Jolie have to be not to be able to make up her mind between Obama & McSame?

She's as stupid as her father.

I give her and Brad credit for the good they do, but they're so freakin' self-righteous about it sometimes.

[ralps]

92. Today's worst person in the world is Stewert Shephard Of Focus on the Family

He's asking people to pray for rain in Denver on the day of Obama's Acceptance speech! :hi: :loveya: :hug: :pals: :woohoo: :wtf: ???

[SeattleGirl]

94. Hey, Angelina!

It really doesn't take a lot of thought to figure out who the best candidate is!

[Berry Cool]

96. "Jocularity, jocularity..."

The last thing * does is make me feel jocular. :grr:

[Berry Cool]

98. Clooney, Clooney

the man who let Sharon down!

[SeattleGirl]

99. Father Mulcahey, is that you?

:rofl:

[Berry Cool]

104. I loved that episode.

"All this jocularity is most unseemly!"

[SeattleGirl]

105. "...and someone has broken into the sacramental wine!"

:rofl:

[ralps]

97. LOL SeattleGirl here's one Pissed off Kitty

:hi: :loveya: :hug: :pals: :woohoo: :rofl:

[Berry Cool]

101. He looks like he got suckered into cat water polo.

Oh well, back to the Olympics!

[SeattleGirl]

103. Bwahahahaha!

I would NOT want to be the hooman who put that cat in the water!
