20. He's always good for what ails you.

I just wish I could find out what his bedside manner is like. :evilgrin:

If you're too tired to PM tonight, you can wait.

[RevCheesehead]

26. Actually, I'd love to call ya.

If you're up for it. I can be brief.

THE PUPPIES ARE HOME!!!!!!

dg

[RevCheesehead]

28. Yay!!

That will increase your healing by 200%, at least! :bounce::bounce:

[Berry Cool]

29. Yippee.

Sounds like you have a lot of fur-covered creatures to attend you.

[WolverineDG]

51. Now if I could just get the to stay off my tummy

x(

I know they all lerves me, but ouch!!

dg

[GigiMommy]

31. Hi Wolfie!

:hi: Hope you're getting enough rest being home. Sending get well wishes your way.:hug:

[SeattleGirl]

32. Hi Wolvie!

Glad you're still at home, and the furbabies are in attendance! :hi:

[SeattleGirl]

7. Hi Berry and everybody!

Not gonna be me either.

But that's okay. I don't want to work that hard!

:hi:

[Berry Cool]

10. Hi, SG.

Me, either.

In other news, I wonder what's going to happen with Stephanie Tubbs Jones' superdelegate vote. Does it just go vacant?

Damn, damn, damn. She had switched her support to Obama, too. She wasn't going to be a PUMA enabler.

[SeattleGirl]

21. I don't know.

The woman was a ferocious Hilary supporter, but even more, she was a ferocious supporter of the Democratic party. No way would she have gone PUMA.

[Berry Cool]

35. It's official, like Keith said--she threw it to Obama sometime in June.

I was a little worried there for a while, but she must have decided that party loyalty trumped loyalty to the Clintons. Good for her...for all the good it does us now.

Truly sad...a classic example of how, as Keith said, "We're all day to day." :-(

Had she somehow survived, she would not have really "lived." Her aneurysm was in an inoperable spot, and her brain damage was severe.

She died in Huron Road Hospital, same hospital my mother's mother died in.

[RevCheesehead]

16. Girrrl!

How ya doin' today? :hug::loveya:

[SeattleGirl]

24. Pretty good!

It's raining here today, and the cooler weather suits me just fine!

:loveya: :hi:

[RevCheesehead]

33. Oh, I agree!

I was in Green Bay today, and on the way home, the temp dropped about 10 degrees. It's always better by the lake. :)

[SeattleGirl]

36. I don't handle really warm weather very well anymore.

[RevCheesehead]

38. Are you a pasty white girl like me?

Red hair, mass o'freckles, always burn.... :P

[SeattleGirl]

41. Not quite pasty, but pretty pale.

The only tanning I do these days, if I do any at all, is tan in a bottle. B-)

[GigiMommy]

58. That gave me such a fun picture of you...

except the "burn" part.:)

[RevCheesehead]

74. I tried to post a pic of me w/the cats, but Photobucket no longer works...

on this operating system! :cry:

Yeah, the "burn" part: x(

[Botany]

8. "You can not certify what you can not verify" .... S. T. Jones Jan. 2005

We lost a good one ... :cry:

[SeattleGirl]

9. Yes, we sure did.

RIP, Ms. Tubbs-Jones. :cry:

[Berry Cool]

11. That was one thing I forgot to mention in my RIP.

She and Barbara Boxer going to bat for the Ohio voter in 2005, saying our election was stolen.

Nothing happened in the long run, but she tried. :cry:

[GigiMommy]

48. Very sad.

R.I.P. Rep. Jones. :cry:

[WolverineDG]

12. If Hillary fucks this up for Obama

I will NEVER vote Democratic again.

Bitch.

dg

[Berry Cool]

17. Ewww.

I don't want to hear about Rush Limbaugh's seamy underbelly.

[RevCheesehead]

18. One thing I've learned about life:

There's always at least one person around who is not only willing, but eager to fuck things up for everyone else. :banghead:

[Berry Cool]

39. You can say that again

and it is just the luck of decent people to run into them now and again, and not be able to do much, if anything, about it. :-(

[RevCheesehead]

40. I was listening to a Star Wars special on TV.

It examined classic archetypes and themes found in the movies. One guy said "Make no mistake about it - there is real evil in the world. It exists, and you can't deny it."

I get my theology from the movies. O8)

[Berry Cool]

50. Or, as Bruce Springsteen said in "Nebraska,"

"Well sir I guess there's just a meanness in this world."

I believe that. I know it's supposed to be very fundie, but I believe in pure evil. The bright side is, I also get to believe in pure goodness.

[Botany]

66. Did I ever tell you that you are my Fav?

One of the best albums ever

Yea we're laughin' and drinkin' nothin' feels better than blood on blood
Takin' turns dancin' with Maria as the band played "Night of the Johnstown Flood"
I catch him when he's strayin', teach him how to walk that line
Man turns his back on his family he ain't no friend of mine

[Berry Cool]

72. The album Reagan never listened to.

:rofl:

[GigiMommy]

22. Hello Everyone!

:hi: :bounce:

[SeattleGirl]

27. Hi ya, Gigi!

:hi: :bounce: :bounce: :bounce: :bounce: :bounce:

[GigiMommy]

37. Hi SG!!!

:hi: :bounce: :bounce: :bounce: Cassie's SOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO excited about the news. Can't wait.

[SeattleGirl]

44. Cool!

Don't tell her, but I think a froggie may find it's way into my luggage from Seattle. :)

[RevCheesehead]

34. Hi Gigi and Cassie!

:hi: :hug: :bounce::bounce:

[GigiMommy]

42. Hi Rev!!!

:hi: :bounce: How are you doing!?! Hope everything's OK!

[RevCheesehead]

46. Today, it's OK.

And I refuse to look ahead anymore. Today is enough.

Hope you're all good! :)

[GigiMommy]

60. Cassie got yet ANOTHER Build A Bear for her Birthday.

:hug: Sending warm "Build A Bear" hugs your way.

[Berry Cool]

64. Is it a Bay Air on roller skates smoking a cigar?

:rofl:

[GigiMommy]

68. No but they've got a Harley Bear

(Cassie got a "High School Musical" Bear!)

[Berry Cool]

73. But that doesn't look like MY Harley.

Its face isn't divided down the middle black and orange.

Nor is the rest of its body all spotty like that. :-)

[Berry Cool]

75. Oh, and I hope my nieces don't find out

about the High School Musical bears. (It may already be too late.)

[RevCheesehead]

69. Thank you very much!

Hugs back to both of you! :hug::hug:

[Berry Cool]

52. Hi GGM!!

and Cassie!! :hi:

[GigiMommy]

57. Hi Berry!!!

:hi: :bounce: Sorry to hear about Rep. Jones. Remember seeing her on Tavis Smiley's Black America Forum on CSPAN. Great smile.

[RevCheesehead]

23. Hey ralps!

Shopko has Brett Favre Jets jerseys for sale! :evilgrin:

[Berry Cool]

43. "I don't care if it's a Bay Air on roller skates smoking a cigar!"

:applause: Go Keith! He's always supported the gay community; tonight he's made it obvious that he supports the transgendered community as well. And made an excellent point: if the government isn't willing to hire ANYONE, that means ANYONE, qualified for a job involved with fighting terrorism, but is rather exercising discrimination based on LGBT status, you have to wonder: Just how serious IS the threat, anyway? Or are they just blowing smoke????

[RevCheesehead]

47. Oh, I was hoping Keith would have said "min-kee."

But "Monkey Express" was still pretty funny. :)

[Berry Cool]

59. He DID say "min-kee."

At least that's what I heard. I loved it!

[SeattleGirl]

49. Sorry, ya'll but I gotta jet.

MrSG wants to go out to dinner, and swears he's ready to faint from lack of food. :rofl:

Later!

Oh, for those you didn't see it, I did post a link to the Town Hall Forum I went to Saturday. You can see the lovely Rachel AND Mama in her fishnets! :evilgrin:

:hi:

[Berry Cool]

53. See ya, SG! Enjoy your dinner with Mr. SG.

We'll see you another time.

Oh, and too bad you're missing out on the KOOS Chris Kofinis is giving us!

[SeattleGirl]

76. Actually, I got home just in time for the repeat, right when Kofinis

was on, How's THAT for timing! :)

[RevCheesehead]

54. Bye, sweetie!

I just grabbed my dinner: nachos and a Smirnoff Raspberry Ice. :)

:hi:

[Berry Cool]

65. Now THAT's my idea of a square meal!

:9

[RevCheesehead]

71. I'm feeling a bit more mellow now.

Tell me when I can call, OK? I wanna make sure you get enough computer time. :)

[WolverineDG]

55. One word:

Romio's :9

dg

[Berry Cool]

56. Kofinis is right, like Cenk Ugyur was this morning.

Obama's been very on the ball, but he needs to come out with both guns blazing now against Grampy McSame. No more Mr. Nice Guy. Tell the kids he wants to reinstate the draft. Don't put yourself in a position where you let him attack you every day and you spend every day saying "That's not true, I'm not what he says I am. I'm not putting him down, don't get me wrong. He's wonderful, but I am better."

That's exactly the game they WANT you to play--the game where you are constantly on defense, and constantly praising them at the same time so YOU don't look like the bad guy. Bullshit!

[Berry Cool]

62. Keith is having a great time with WPITW tonight.

"He didn't say 'Arr,' I just added that."

He had a great time talking about News Corp. stock dropping and ridiculing Comedian Rush for sniping at Rachel and her new show when he couldn't even MAKE his TV appearances work!!

Rush Limbaugh--the guy with a face, and body, for radio!!!

[GigiMommy]

63. Have fun and have a dessert for me.

:hi:

[RevCheesehead]

61. "Ask the clown."

:rofl:

and: "..worse... person... now down 34%... in the world!"

[Berry Cool]

67. Sometimes Keith has way too much fun at work.

:rofl: Allan Havey is hoping neither McSame nor Lie-berman will serve!

[Berry Cool]

70. Oh, for crap's sake.

Dan Abrams is STILL flogging Hillary as Obama's running mate, to get him back up in the polls.

It's over, Dan. Deal with it.

*sigh* Rachel can't start soon enough!!!!
