Hi ES
Eureka!
Tres.
Eureka!
ES!
Aloha, ES and LL!
David Lowery is teh cool, all the way from Camper Van Beethoven to Cracker.
Aloha CT :-)
So can they take down the Ron Paul 2008 Prez signs here in AZ?
Just can’t understand why they are still up, the county has a law that that campaign signs need to be removed within a week of the election or subject to a fine.
dugg ya, es
sorry, fixed that bad link on the digg
Do you think they’d try to enforce the law before the general?
Hey AZ Folks! Gotta get use to the time shift of the Lake. We are Pacificos like the Lake now.
LL you are up really late aren’t you?
Thanks Suz!
Will his supporters now go around and take down those annoying signs. I think the REvolution is over. Send the nutjobs back to Texas… it’s big enough for both of them…
The Law is whatever Sheriff Joe says it is! And don’t you go fer gittin’ that!
Funny you say that.. RP signs are the only signs I see when driving around rural Arkansas.
ya did burn me on that one..but got it anyway. #2
AZ Matt, yes, just a bit ;-) But I’m off for the next two days. Nothing pressing on the agenda.
Ya think that Sheriff Joe would get around it but with the 78K unserved criminal warrants and 41K unserved felony warrants just sitting around, he finds it more important to go on the national talk shows….
Katymine, did any of the news stories you read mention if filtering the water helps at all?
Wow, I love this.
They said the standard water treatment done by the city does not remove all the drugs.
I buy RO water from the Water & Ice store. I am hoping that the RO process does do the job.
Well, I hate to say it, but I think I’ve had about enough fun for one evening. Went to the store earlier and I feel sticker shocked. Guess oil prices are catching up with everything already. I looked at soups, and a can of Campbell chicken noodle soup not only has gotten smaller, but it was 3 cans for $4.00. I swear it wasn’t that long ago we were paying like $.59/can! Makes me tired, so I’m going to bed.
The Revolution, a manifesto? Isn’t that what the Unibomber living in Montana sent out?
Ya gotta have yerselfs some priorities! Smoochin’ hisself up to a higher purpose is Sherif Joe! It is fer the good of the U.S. of A!
$4 for a loaf of bread
g’nite ann in az
I have a PUR filter on my tap.
More great tune-age from David Lowery and Cracker:
Eurotrash Girl
heh, haven’t heard camper van in a long time.
He dropped out, huh? I’m surprised. So where is the money he raised (or rather his supporters)?
On my mind tonight human trafficking but on the lighter side my combo vegtable/native plant garden.
sleep well Ann
Good night! And don’t worry no more about mr. renzi, he is going out with the trash. No recylcing for him.
i love that song…
Have been making my own salad dressing for years…
Before I go to bed, I wanted to thank you again for the link to the article about Renzi. Quite shocking! He’s my nieces Rep., or he was. Do we have someone in that race yet? Will there be an election to fill his seat, or hasn’t he resigned yet, or are they just going to wait for Nov.? Or do you or Katymine know?
I can’t use vinegar, so we always make our own dressing.
Me too Suz ;-) Lowery lived here in VA for a while, but I’ve lost track of where he’s been lately.
How? Got a good recipe? Got one for blue cheese?
time for me to call it a night. sleep well y’all.
Good night, sleepers.
AACCHHT !! No vinegar? Oh Betsy, how do you live?
Howard Shanker is one of our Blue American candidates, he was here live blogging last year.
There are two others, Kirkpatrick who is the DCCC hand picked party person and a former news anchor. Kirkpatrick still doesn’t have any positions and states she hasn’t developed them…
So true! Now you’re making me laugh!
G’night Betsy.
pain free sleep wishes tex
Spoil yourself, Betsy!
Ann & Matt in AZ…. if you ever get a chance to hear Dan Saban speak please go…. He is running against Sheriff Joe with the slogan that “Joes gotta go!…. We can’t afford Joe Arpaio!
Hi Chris, how are you making out in the aftermath of the snow?
Oh, I can’t believe our Betsy can’t have vinegar. Anyway, yes I can send you any recipe for salad.
Dang, I just got waylaid by the FDL Neilson survey, hopefully I didn’t skew the results too much…! ;-)
thanks for partaking, ct
There are 3 or 4 Dems vying for the seat. Howard Shanker is one, Ann Kirkpatrick is another. Since he hasn’t resigned I beleive the election will follow the usual schedule.
No Problemo, glad to help… *g*
Titla is the former news anchor. Kirkpatrick is serving ing th AZ house and is lawyer from Flagstaff.
Not so well. Mr. CE was due home from UK at 8:00 and will hopefully be here by daylight. Snowblower in garage. I’m 55 years old and I’m NOT doing this… it took me 30 minutes to get the back door open.
lemon juice christine.
already have a lunch date for tomorrow
yay!
omg Chris — I hope that Mr CE makes it home safely, and soon. Do you have any neighborhood kids that could help out with the snowblowing/shoveling/etc?
If Renzi resigns before March 30th, then there will be a special election in 90 days but if he resigns after than, then that district will be unrepresented, the election in Nov and sworn in in Jan 2009.
Yay!
(Guess I shoudn’t tell CE that it was sunny and somewhat warm here today)
(i wont tell her that i was 71 again today either)
No, too late. I’m hoping for a taxi by 2:00 — see you then!
He needs the salary so I don’t think he will go. Bad for the Republicans, a big black eye.
Greek salad dressing is extra virgin oil oil (the really green thick stuff) and lemon juice…… add herbs and feta cheese crumbles and its a meal
Especially for Chris:
Here Comes The Sun
Heh, I’ve learned not to talk about my weather during the winter months…! ;-)
tis a small price for living in paradise, ct :)
Turd
But we don’t have to shovel all that sunshine…
Ok…. still trying to get back on my time…. sucks to wake up at 4:30 am on a weekend.
Thank you! I loved this!
Chris, I somehow knew that you would :-)
I’ve listened to it twice.
See! Sometimes I miss the seasons and the Autumn foliage, then, I turn on the Tube and see the horrific cold fronts and all that snow, and thank my lucky stars…! 8-)
But it was sunny aned wonderful here too, just under 20 inches of snow!
sunny and wonderful but not sunny and warm otherwise all that snow would not be there (laughing)
Mac Attack…. now I have McBush in my sports…… eeeewwwwwwwuuuuu … he and the Mrs attended a Suns game here in PHX…
Apropos of nothing whatsoever, but this song has been in my head all weekend:
Georgy Girl
heading off to bed….. see ya all tomorrow…. Nite all!
i bet mrs mcbush was perfectly coiffed and wearing an ensemble that hinted at just a touch of informality.
sleep well katymine
Rest well katymine.
Wow, where is your miniskirt?
packed away with the go go boots and orange juice cans for curling the hair into sausage curls or a big fat flip.
lol Chris ;-) What can I say — it’s one of those “good” earworms!
sorry to disillusion you but she was wearing a navy blue ball cap and a t-shirt (could not see the rest of her for the smartie pants)…. it probably was a designer shirt. I think they were trying to not be too conspicuous…
You know it, girl. Orange juice cans?
and lots of dippity do hair gel
For me, transparent tape for ear curls.
along with black eyeliner, white eye shadow, and pale pale pink frosted lipstick
So much music, so little time.
On that note, time for me to hit the rack. Good night all!
g’nite ll – sleep well
All of the above. Gosh, I loved blace eyeliner.
Geez, I post a song about going bowling and the ladies start primping. /s
Another song please?
And trying to sleep with all those “fat” rollers in my hair…. blerb… all those high school nightmares….. blue eye shadow….. the HS principle with the yard stick to measure my skirt to check to see if it was too short…
going to the bowling alley was all about style, es. didn’t you ever see my blue heaven?
How about one of the newest inductees to the R & R Hall of Fame…

ET, Jr. and I worked all day long on his car, a ‘99 Outback. It was overheating. We did trouble shooting on the thermostat, the water pump, the head gasket. Flushed the system, changed the coolant. It was stiul overheating, with bubbles coming up in the overflow tank. Called our favorite mechanic over toward Big Lake. He thought it was the head gasket.
So, I started towing him the 20 miles to the mechanic. His engine was on so he had power steering, but just idling. He revved it up once to see what would happen to the temp. It spiked for a couple of seconds, then went down to normal for the first time all day.
We test drove it for 20 miles. It fixed itself.
For now.
The most time he and I have spent together since summer. We laughed a lot through the frustrations and mysterious repair. He’s headed back to college now, after eating a big dinner and taking the leftovers with him.
Yeah, but they can’t do a thing about the shoes :)
I’m up until Mr. CE makes it home from Newark
Might need another nickname for McSame McCain. McInsane McCain?
———-
McCain walks back claim that Baghdad is like a U.S. city. Sen. John McCain (R-AZ) yesterday equated the security situation in Baghdad with any American city, telling an audience, “There’s problems in America with safe neighborhoods as we well know.” But he quickly tried to walk back his comment, stating, “I’m not making that comparison. Because it’s much more deadly in Iraq obviously. But it’s kind of the same theory.”
http://thinkprogress.org/2008/…..ican-city/
——
’But it’s kind of the same theory.” What does that mean??
——
I also approve of McSame McCain’s whacked BFFs, who are so loyal, they just won’t go away, even after official rejection:
Steve King [R-IA -I added]: ‘I Reject McCain’s Disavowal’ Of Me
http://thinkprogress.org/2008/…..-comments/
That set up is great for just the kind of convoluted bizarro question premise (”but it IS reality”) that Russert loves.
Now Russert can ask McCain, with real justification, whether he triple-rejects and double-dog repudiudiudiuates, extra-ultra-hyper disownerfies and double-disavows King’s support. And further, just what action will he undertake to qraudruple re-rejecto-re-repudio-re-denounce continued bad-penny support if King rejects the double-dog?
skinny ties and all – loved the DC5
Well I am heading to bed too. For some reason I gotta go to work in the morning. You all have a nice evening at the Lake. Drinks are on ES!
I bought a kit for testing the presence of exhaust in coolant a few years ago. Works great.
Just a syringe and some chemical.
g’nite az matt
I admit I own two pairs of bowling shoes..and I have not bowled in years. I just like to wear them uptown now and then.
Aloha, LL and AZ Matt, and any others I missed while Utubing…!
Interesting. Where’d you get it? My theory is that the head gasket will do this again, but is making nice for now…
Could be the Head gasket still, but, maybe the quick rev knocked some gunk that was clogging the cooling system, the flushing doesn’t necessarily clear it out fully…
Snap-on. But I’ll bet there’s a cheaper kit available.
You pour this blue liquid into the syringe (a clear glass tube really) and is won’t pour through because there’s a one-way filter in the bottom.
The bottom snout is rubber and fits into the neck of the radiator, and you fix the squeeze bulb onto the spout on the top.
Squeezing the bulb and releasing it draws the air from the radiator through the fluid, and if exhaust gases are present, it turns from blue to yellow.
ah, CTuttle, and newtonusr – the fdlikapedia!
Jack of all, Master of none…! ;-)
LOL!
And yeah.
oh yeah..
At least you guys weren’t talking about makeup and hair curlers….ducking :>) But I did grow up with four sisters
i am having absolutely NO luck in finding that clip on utube from my cousin vinny where marisa tomei is the hostile witness about cars
Open letter to Head of DNC Dean:
Mark Penn, campaign manager for Hillary Rodham Clinton, started the “if we can’t have the whitehouse sweetie your going down in flames with me” attack adds. Which has given the R talking heads something to celebrate. Scorched Earth Mama Clinton savages the Democrat brand. WTFH Halp
Is this just another bad dream started in San Antonio then to Ohio and soon to show in Wilkes-Barre and points East?
The slam Obama show designed to get her crossover votes to McSame? Where is the sage cinnamonape when needed?
If exhaust is present in the coolant: cracked head, cracked block, or blown gasket (in decreasing order of cost). Sigh!
The alternative of a rebuilt engine should be explored. (As I understood things a couple of decades ago, the Japanese have to replace their engines ever X-number of years, so there are a lot of inexpensive rebuilt engines for Japanese vehicles on the U.S. market.)
Got me beat by one.
But I taught them all to change their own friggin oil :-)
You’d think that one would be prominent!
Bubbles in the coolant reservoir is exhaust gas getting by head gasket.
Modern engines don’t get oil in the water nearly as often as the headgasket failing around a fire ring next to a coolant passage.
Make sure they check the head for being warped and for cracks, esp near valve seats.
hey busted
Not my sisters… nurses legal secretaries and moms!!
I was wondering if you were going to chime in!
Now for the blasphemy – I’ve seen folks use Aluma-seal to get it sealed temporarily, to last long enough to sell the beast.
Not advocating this, btw. Bad mojo.
Also a good idea to have radiator inspected and or replaced if car is ten years old or more.
Plugs radiator big time, heater core too.
Roger on all that.. On our list. Subaru 2.5L engines do exactly that better than a lot of things they do, eh?
I found out this morning that an old friend was killed in an avalanche in Cordova yesterday. He went back into an area where there’d been a small avalanche, looking for a missing dog, and got creamed by a bigger one.
Past my bedtime, gnite y’all and good luck ET.
oh et, i am so sorry for your loss. how tragic.
g’nite busted
Huge Bummer ET.
Crap.
Yep.
nite busted
Wow..
Sorry ET
Oh no, so sorry, ET.
ES know what you mean about the bowling shoes, I have red ones and wear them to the bakery every single time…never bowl
sorry about your friend ET… good luck with the car
I hadn’t seen Mike in years. But he was close to a lot of my best friends. He also saved my life on March 23, 1974, so I’ll always be grateful for that.
wow
Bowling shoes are comfy and they have the right sole for sailing.. so you are always prepared to be invited sailing when wearing bowling shoes..)
how many miles are you away from an ocean?
Sailors in the know would never invite me sailing…nor would I go…the wierdest of wierd things happen when I board a boat of any kind…but I know what you mean about being comfy, just the right amount of support while being flexable…and that is just what you want when you go to the bakery

*waving back*
About 600, but I am also more than willing to travel. Also, Eureka Springs has a sailing/yacht club.. There are a couple of massive lakes around these parts.
Wow, ET that is sad… I just got back from fixing some vittles, ya’ll are a hour further ahead of me now…!
sticking head out of my cousin vinny utube – margot that is so forking kewl – thank you
Hello, everyone.
ET, I’m so very sorry.
Spidey, I enjoy it when you’re here.
Cold medicine keeping me awake, but happy to be here. *cough, sniffle, sneeze*
Well, Margot – Suzanne, being the YouTube Goddess that she is, rarely has needed an assist.
Very nice work.
In case anyone is interested – best blog on the Iditarod sled dog race, which will wrap up in a few days. The writer is an Alaska public radio reporter, who also loves to dogsled.
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v…..re=related
I like the photo caption about white dogs not overheating (in Alaska) so easily.
When the race started, it was just beginning to get unseasonably warm. It is becoming the hottest race on record, unless it gets real cold. The dogs run best at about zero F.
Each dog in the race gets checked by a vet at every stop.
I went into YouTubeZen mode.
In other words, I just got lucky. ;)
Uh-oh…

put that one in the box during late nite – makes me wonder about security during the olympics
oh spidey, i’ve not heard her before (at least i don’t recall hearing her before). how lovely
I agree, and they’re right around the corner…!
Superb.
Still on dial-up, so no utube. Remember Marisa very well; yesterday’s lunch, not so much. Cars were simpler then, and I had one! (that worked)
Oohh, please no more plane terrorists…please…
sorry about the dialup. i was on dialup until november when newtonusr found a dsl i could use and afford.
Hey Suzanne…
And never have I seen anyone make so much from the speed they have, dialup or DSL :-)
As happy as I am to hear ET Jr. has no hot water, I must say I am LOVING my new hot water tank! Refilled my tub three times yesterday and read half a book while soaking.
Life is good.
G’ nite firedogs
*laughing* i keep telling ya’ll that i’m a fast woman…
g’nite eureka
nite ES
time for me to bail too – i’m tired – forking time change is messing with me.
g’nite all
nite suz
I was glad to hear of that, Suzanne. You certainly deserve a very golden upgrade…hope that it is working well for you. I remain grateful for what I have, and grateful to the ppl that made it possible. When everything gets really fast and terrific, I’ll be on that train, I’m sure…
don’t forget to spring forward, pups.
Nite Suz

Not here, ET! Aloha, Suz and ES! I shall bid a fond adieu too…! Aloha Oe!!!
Nite, Suz, ET, and ES. Best wishes to all.
Spidey, are you there? Turning 60 in a few weeks…
No biggie, just thought if you were there. Again, best wishes…
anybody awake or is this the “I’m just entertaining myself” portion of the program?

I’m gonna multi-task. Since I’ve got a jury this morning, I need an Alan Shore speech to get me in the right mood:
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=sdHtW_81kwg
I cannot believe I have to do this today, because the trial is about – NOTHING. Driving While Suspended – yep, another dangerous criminal who must be taken off the streets. Suspended not as a result of a DUI or anything – just too many points. In Indianapolis, that’s one where you walk up to a judge, plead guilty, take a fine and go home – no sentence, no probation.
But in Hamilton County, where I gotta go – they put people in jail for this – for a year!! No way I’m letting this go without at least a fight. Don’t know that I’ve ever done a jury for a misdemeanor case, but fuck ‘em, they’re gonna have to earn it.
My strategy? Don’t have one really, other than maybe trying to suppress the traffic stop. Other than that, it’s gonna be just me being an asshole about every tiny little point that I can. I think that on a misdemeanor, I only get a 6 person jury, so that cuts in half my opportunity to try the thing on voir dire.
So in a few hours, I’m walking into a court angry – and loud. I wonder if I can possibly drag this piece of shit out for a full day or two. Ta hell with ‘em – I’ll shut their court down trying this case while all of their other cases get backed up, continued, maybe even have to drop a few, even though I would obviously feel just awful about that.
All right then, I’m getting into the right mood – more coffee….
I’ll see your bowling shoes and raise you a pair of red-soled saddle shoes. . . .
