Hello, gang! Phoenix Woman the Space Cadet is here again, subbing for TRex (I didn't realize he was still gone... oops!). I apologize for not being around on time!
Speaking of apologies: I had to share this with y'all, I really did.
This was forwarded to me by someone who swears, up and down and sideways, that this is a real e-mail sent out to real building tenants by a real employee of a real office landlord somewhere. It concerns a busted air conditioning system, and it reads as follows:
The maintained men are here working on the A/C today, we apologize for the incontinence this is causing. Will keep you posted.
Thank you
I was wondering where that smell was coming from, weren't you? And are those men high-maintenance? Inquiring minds want to know!

zed???
Argh, just missed it!!!
OUCH! That friggin hurt. I got stuck in the automatic door when the Lake went down.
Nice to be back at the Lake (rubbing tushkie)
Hey PW, incontinence? That is funny!
Ewww, I can smell it from here.
I think GWB is incontinent.
That is the $64,000 question, PW!!! Hmmm…
Hey SteveA. How’s SoCal tonight? 88 today at the little cottage by the creek in the redwoods and 90 in town.
Spell Check has created a whole new world of malapropisms.
Should your malapropism last for more than 4 hours, you should see a doctor…
Where is everyone? Whenever the lake goes down I get worried.
Suzanne @ 3
It took an eternity to load the Post! Suzanne, I hope the Mods are busy beavers still!!! Service is still lacking! But, I’m only sulking because I didn’t get the Zed!!! *g*
Mary McCurnin @ 5
I don’t think he is in the continent right now, is he?
Suzanne @ 7
Very nice, thanks. I actually went in the pool Sunday.
Oh, I need to add you to mu facebook friends.
After reading Pach’s post, I think that Karl Rove might be incontinent right now.
I’m sure they will be back soon, Mary Mc. They are probably over at the document dump or at Marcy’s and will be checking back in as soon as they realize we are back up.
Hope no browsers were bruised in the crash.
Everybody must have hit the hay early tonight. I am thinking of doing the same, except that I have to pick up all the clean laundry M.de Plume spread all over the bed while packing for his fishing trip today.
There’s an “on time” for Late Late Nite? Who knew? *g*
Right now let me apologize for taking so long to get here — my connection is iffy tonight (again).
Suzanne @ 15
Did you have a crash? I was off reading Marcie and a few others and checking on the Spurs. Yeehaw!
For SteveA and anyone else who has not added me - this is my facebook page.
Phoenix Woman @ 18
We were down for a bit, PW - that may have something to do with the trouble you were having. (still rubbing tushkie)
Suzanne @ 20
And there you go.
Iffy Stardust
Mary McCurnin @ 5
Nah, it’s ‘Mudcat’ Saunders who’s got the runs…and it’s pretty damn gross if ya ask me.
But then I’m just a tenth-tier blogger and in ‘Mudcat’s’ world that there don’t amount to a hill o’ beans boy!
We’ll see if’n he ever shows up here.
Hey! Maybe he can bring Joke Line with him….
That would be fun.
The A/C must be the Aretha Canal from the bladder. Which we all should grant more Respect.
Kevin Hayden @ 25
Holy crap!
Suzanne @ 20
Hi, Suzanne! I’ve been lazy about adding people; it seemed like more were appearing faster than I could even page through the group members, much less take the time to friend them.
But Late Nite people are special!
Suzanne @ 20
I noticed you accepted me, Ma’am, does this mean I can ‘Poke’ you from time to time??? *g*
Kevin Hayden @ 25
I would urethra not.
Thanks for adding me, Redshift and SteveA.
Suzanne @ 21
Here’s some salve for the tuchus!
Thanks, PW. I’m glad to see no spitballs tonight. The rubber band box got lost in the redecorating.
Mary McCurnin @ 29
“Ladies and gentlemen… Uretha Franklin!”
You are all just a chain of fools but I will say a little prayer for you.
The A/C must be the Aretha Canal from the bladder. Which we all should grant more Respect.

There is never a Foley around when ya need catheterization.
Phoenix Woman @ 33
No, here’s Aretha;

Paging Dr. Foley.
He just loves kids, ya know?
Paging Dr. Foley.
He just loves kids, ya know?
And so cheerful, he is always whistling Bob Seeger’s “Turn The Page”
Suzanne @ 35
You make me squeal like Unnatural Woman.
Suzanne @ 39
But of course they don’t let him in the Congressional Library any more — he keeps bending over the pages!
That was funny, Kevin Hayden. How ya been?
Kevin Hayden @ 40
We knew that Ann Althouse had to enter into the conversation sometime.
I just let downstairs know we were upstairs. They didn’t know PW had posted. Did someone forget to tell ‘em?
Suzanne @ 35
Ah, but there will always be a Douchebag in Parliament!
Suzanne @ 44
Thanks — I thought someone had!
Phoenix Woman @ 14
I thought that was Condi
Suzanne @ 39
Seger, Ma’am, Bob Seger, Pete Seeger, is good too!!!
Here Ya go;http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=A_9GV4gf6
Most people live incontinence. Relatively few live in disparate islands.
Depends™ on the state of mind urine, I guess.
I thought so to, PW and I apologize. Things were hectic with the crash coming back up and your post posting all within a few minutes of each other.
Phoenix Woman @ 43
To make a clean breast of her boobery?
;>)
Phoenix Woman @ 14
I thought this administration didn’t leak…
I seem to be full of typo’s tonight. Much earlier than usual. I apologize in advance for any errant brain/finger connections.
Suzanne @ 53
Are they supposed to be connected?
Kevin Hayden @ 49
Oh my god! I should just take my football and go home.
Kevin Hayden @ 49
Cage Match: Kevin vs. Punaise…
MP, I think this Administration used to not leak except for what they wanted to piss on.
Now, they are flowing almost as fast as my creek. I’m still waiting for Niagra.
My kitty is out of intensive care and home; and I am happy to be here with people I don’t know but respect and am glad to be with. She’s not eating much, but ssssoooooooooo much better. Thank you all for just being here; and I’ve caught up on the news to boot! I am thinking fondly of Suzanne’s past spectular dives with joy at this moment.
Suzanne @ 42
In a period of adjustment. I was on blogging hiatus, one of my interim co-mgrs disappeared, I joined the ranks of the unemployed 5 weeks ago. SNAFU (shrug).
The weather’s been nice here in Bleugene, OR, though, so no major complaints. Howzabout you?
mhpcr @ 58
Glad the kitty is home.
It’s obvious by now that Rove made the list of USA’s to be fired. I sure as hell hope one of these clowns testilying is asked why Rove made the list in the first place.
Kevin, the cottage by the creek in the redwoods is for sale - fingers and toes crossed that I’ll be moving up your way soon.
mhpcr @ 58
no dive since the bellyflop yesterday just before late nite posted - sorry your kitty is poorly but glad she is home. tomorrow night, i’ll have to do a dive just to cheer her up.
Kevin Hayden @ 49
Are urine or out?
((((mhpcr and kitty))))
so, so glad for your happy news!
i’m off to bed - hope you both sleep well
(purrs)
Suzanne @ 15
I was over at Marcy’s. Good stuff, and a good one by Kagro X, too.
Bob in HI
mhpcr @ 58
Go-o-o-o kitty! But insist on real fish and daily tummy rubs, not that melamine-tainted China stuff.
Good to hear that the strength is returning.
mhpcr @ 58
((((((Kitty)))))))
((((((Kitty’s owner))))))
g’nite dr kirk - sleep well
Thanks, TexB. Means a lot.
Suzanne @ 62
Cool. You planning on Eugene, Ashland, the coast, or what?
Good night all. Time for me to get some sleep
Well, I gotta go, myself. And when ya gotta go, ya gotta go!
Have fun with them, Suzanne! And thanks!
I thought about starting a fresh pet food business just cannot figure out how to make a profit.
Gnite Kirk, Tex and PW. Thanks for the funny notice!
g’nite PW and Tex. Sleep well and I’ll enjoy playing with ‘em in your stead, PW.
Kevin, still not sure. I’m leaning more towards the Coast between Newport and Nehalem Bay but… won’t really know until I get up there.
Vic Kohring, the Alaska State Legislator indicted last month by the FBI in the continuing corruption scandal up here, had an op-ed in the Anchorage Daily News today, asking not just his constituents, but anybody who cares to share his or her thoughts with Vic, to let him know whether he should cut and run or stay the course. I know Vic fairly well, so he might even read my letter:
Vic,
Don’t resign. Fight and never give up. Show them how a real American patriot wins his battles.
I want Vic and every other indicted Republican to fight to hold whatever public presence they can possbily hold, as long as he or she can hold that position. I want William Jefferson gone yesterday, but I want each GOP creep to cling to the office until the next Fitz’s officers of the court tear the GOP crooks’ hands from the doorknobs to their crumbling images of power.
Here’s Vic’s op-ed. He gives an e-mail link in the piece, but I’ll give you a direct link to make it easier. Please, please, please encourage this fine young crook to stay the course as long as possible…
Mary McCurnin @ 74
Start local, like a Farmer’s Mkt, then branch to the Web, if you can figure out safe, healthy packaging. Maybe vacuum seal?
Kevin Hayden @ 40
Geez, is punaise missing all this???
Bob in HI
((((everyone))))
thank you so much.
thank you so very much.
ET, is there benefit of having him keep the seat? Other than the continual negative publicity?
Is Punaise from HI?
Punaise is from the People Republic of Berkeley, iirc.
Sorry, Kohring’s direct e-mail link is:
Rep_Vic_Kohring@legis.state.ak.us
Suzanne @ 81
There’s a vas deferens between him and Jefferson. Either way, they’ve done such a piss-poor job someone should smegma upside their heads.
(oh god…where’s my pillow)
Kevin Hayden @ 78
Good idea. Thanks.
Mary,
Geez, chicken livers and cooked chicken breasts are what I’m doing now. Could that be done? There are dog food stores, why not cat food stores (for the wealthy, of which I am not one, especially after this.) Let me think more and see what I can come up with…
Dick Cockring in AK sounds like such a pansy. You think he’s “up” for the challenge?

(oh god…where’s my pillow)
(holding sides from laughing so much)
tbsa @ 61
Actually, I can’t imagine Rove allowing anyone else to make up the list.
Maybe Sampson was right: He was [Rove’s] aggregator. He’d gather all the wingnut complaints, and send the info to Karl, and Karl would compose the list.
You remember how Gonzo-boy kept referring to “Senior Justice Department Officials”? Well, with 417 members of DOJ who could be contacted by WH staff, there was clearly no boundary between DOJ and WH, so what he really meant by senior DOJ staff was Rove (and Miers).
Bob in HI
Suzanne @ 89
Oh, thank you for the laugh;excellent.
Mary McCurnin @ 86
There’s some sort of organic pet food business near where I live. They just use that cheapo one-shot tupperware stuff. Of course, they only sell locally.
Suzanne @ 81
The benefit is the press constantly drilling his robots to numbness and apathy, and drilling everybody else to think a bit more carefully next time they pull a voting lever. He’s not going to be there much longer, but you might have fun encouraging him to enrich his attorneys and supply fodder to keep TPM Muckraker busy. As if they’re not, ET? Duh!
mhpcr @ 87
I have been making animal food for years. Cat and Dog. I have a book that a vet from uc davis put out for well and sick animals. Many recipes. (I found that kitties love polenta.)
I am worried about the liability. And worry about accidently making some critter sick.
This is certainly a plan for the well to do. I wish I still lived in Marin. Perfect demographics.
Now THAT’S Funny!
Thanks, ET. Wasn’t sure if it was because of election rules regarding replacements or some such.
bonkers,
what do you mean by “there’s a vast difference between Kohring and Jefferson” [paraphrasing]?
mhpcr @ 91
Whew. Thought I might get ejaculated, I mean ejected from FDL for that one.
Subway Serenade @ 95
Hey, what’s so funny about Gore/Dean ‘08? ;)
ET, read it again…
ET, never mind, I just re-read your comment… (even my eyes are getting tired)
Suzanne @ 96
I love the smell of corrupt Republicans twisting in the wind in the morning.
attack, Attack, ATTACK, ATTACK!
I can see why sleep deprivation is a torture technique.
oh dayam, i’ve been missing TDS!
I gotta go, too. Colbert and Chong will be on soon. Nice evening.
g’nite Mary McC.
Ed*ard Teller @ 97
I misspoke. They have alot in common. For instance, I think they’re both prostate’s rights.
Cujo359 @ 99
At DemocracyFest, I passed Howard Dean in the hallway and as I shook his hand he said, “Hey, that’s a great shirt!”
I later told him as I gave him my CD, that it would cure TWO injustices at the same time, and he said, “You’re probably right.”
Don’t tell the media that I got the scoop.
damn, pro-state’s rights. ;)
The UC doc is a perfect recommendation for your book! Shipping food is tricky, but I think shrinkwrap would be way to go. You need a publisher for your book…start there, perhaps. How wonderful that you do this! You need to share your knowledge on a broader scale.
Subway Serenade @ 95
I guess that’s where they got the name “Happy Meal” and discovered the secret sauce.
Jeezus…ya get past the point of exhaustion and turn into a 13 year old…
bonkers @ 109
What’s wrong with prostate rights? Never heard of it before, but we could form a PAC. Big Pharma might pump millions into a Prostrate Rights candidate…
When the deal with Mudcat came up earlier today, I went over to the Edwards 2008 Facebook group (more than 3,000 members; Edwards himself is the chief officer), and started a new thread on their discussion board asking about Mudcat. Here’s the answer from Kevin Akins (UF):
Since he does not explicitly mention the Time article that Mudcat wrote, when he says that “I basically agree with Mudcat,” he may be referring to something other than the Time article that got everyone hot & bothered today.
Bob in HI
mhpcr @ 80,
I’m so glad about your kitty!
bonkers @ 109
I thought you were going for another pun!
Bob in HI
ET, so many choices from which to pick to be the frontman on the pro-states’ rights candidate.
Ed*ard Teller @ 112
The words prostrate and pump just should never go together.

It is the first year I have NOT been at D
