ssssshhhhh..
Planning the shower now.
thanks for the vid, Suz. My neighbors sooo love my strange music hours.
At least I figure that they do – they really don’t speak to me – I just figure that they’re in awe of my taste in music….
I think it was probably in the shower when he got this way

You got the beer, Felix has the wings, the wide-screen is ready.

Hiya All!
My brother introduced me to this music…
Paul Carson: bullshit is what holds the country together ..boy he knows a thing or two about this country :>)
hey christine
Beer?
Didn’t you know nurses carry morphine!?!
Come to think of it, morphine in the beer is a hell of a boilermaker.
**not condoning drug diversion/drug abuse/or boilermakers**
Hey Suz!
Getting light and warmer here in greater Cleveland.
Evening, pups!
How’s everybody?
Ready to Hunt some more Snark?
Did I miss anything important today? Buster Kitten had to go to the doctor today. He’s feeling better, but we’ve been resting a lot. It’s nice that he wants Mom when he doesn’t feel good.
FunnyDiva
I bet all the showers you have attended have been planned by the fairer sex.
We guys do it a little differently.
hey funnyd
the shower? geez, i thought ya’ll were talking about the conception!
Yeah, but the shower ends pretty quickly.
Tequila is another way to go, though…
Ya’ll are positively evil…! Bwhahaha… 8-)
Hunting of the Snark
Fit the Third: The Baker’s Tale
1 of 6-ish
(recall that the Baker fainted dead away at the Bellman’s discussion of Snarks)
They roused him with muffins–they roused him with ice–
They roused him with mustard and cress–
They roused him with jam and judicious advice–
They set him conundrums to guess.
When at length he sat up and was able to speak,
His sad story he offered to tell;
And the Bellman cried “Silence! Not even a shriek!”
And excitedly tingled his bell.
There was silence supreme! Not a shriek, not a scream,
Scarcely even a howl or groan,
As the man they called “Ho!” told his story of woe
In an antediluvian tone.
*innocent look*

**not condoning… boilermakers**
Wow – hope for your sake that there aren’t any Purdue fans in the audience tonight…

“My father and mother were honest, though poor–”
“Skip all that!” cried the Bellman in haste.
“If it once becomes dark, there’s no chance of a Snark–
We have hardly a minute to waste!”
“I skip forty years,” said the Baker, in tears,
“And proceed without further remark
To the day when you took me aboard of your ship
To help you in hunting the Snark.
“A dear uncle of mine (after whom I was named)
Remarked, when I bade him farewell–”
“Oh, skip your dear uncle!” the Bellman exclaimed,
As he angrily tingled his bell.
“He remarked to me then,” said that mildest of men,
” ‘If your Snark be a Snark, that is right:
Fetch it home by all means–you may serve it with greens,
And it’s handy for striking a light.
Morphine in the beer helps with the conception too.
That’s Smokin’!
But I wouldn’t want to encourage such misbehavior!
Agent Ribbons
Me thinks this girl is going places!
Bumped into a guy today who is an electronics engineering.
Struck me that NSA hasn’t figured how to monitor what TV programs we watch. Maybe yes and maybe no. If you have cable why not?
Person said today he was a system and computer engineer and the old cumputer language Cobal and Fortran was useful in his line and banks ue them.
He said NSA has programs that sort through the data mining of our “private” data. No more proprietary information they have it ALL every invention before patent. Remember those open unsecured data pipelines in Northern VA without firewalls. Any skilled hacker could easily break in.
Hoping FISA stops that as congress has it’s secret session that Emptywheel thinks may play well for our privacy, The “Shadow Knows” all of our bank, tax, income, travel etc. Big Brother rules…for now. Freedom? Liberty? Rights? Folks need to make more noise.

” ‘You may seek it with thimbles–and seek it with care;
You may hunt it with forks and hope;
You may threaten its life with a railway-share;
You may charm it with smiles and soap–’ “
(”That’s exactly the method,” the Bellman bold
In a hasty parenthesis cried,
“That’s exactly the way I have always been told
That the capture of Snarks should be tried!”)
” ‘But oh, beamish nephew, beware of the day,
If your Snark be a Boojum! For then
You will softly and suddenly vanish away,
And never be met with again!’
Racing to the bookshelf to search out Dr. Spock’s advise on this matter.

6-ish4“It is this, it is this that oppresses my soul,
When I think of my uncle’s last words:
And my heart is like nothing so much as a bowl
Brimming over with quivering curds!
“It is this, it is this–” “We have had that before!”
The Bellman indignantly said.
And the Baker replied “Let me say it once more.
It is this, it is this that I dread!
“I engage with the Snark–every night after dark–
In a dreamy delirious fight:
I serve it with greens in those shadowy scenes,
And I use it for striking a light:
“But if ever I meet with a Boojum, that day,
In a moment (of this I am sure),
I shall softly and suddenly vanish away–
And the notion I cannot endure!”
Ya came to the right place…!
i think there are some politicians who starting puckering when they realized they were being monitored, not just other people or terrorists. i think the spitzer case drove that point home for some.
JayT’s pregnant?
sshhhhh… haven’t told the family yet.
And there’s that whole Catholic thing – crap.
Well I guess yer havin that baby!
heh heh heh
You’re screwed, Dood! Oops, did I just say screwed…? ;-)

hehehehe
isn’t daddy and mommy bush heavily invested in carlise? ouch, that’s gonna leave a mark
uh, obviously (I am coming in late) I have missed a great deal of hilarity re: jayt, conception, showers, and so forth.
I would be grateful if someone could give me the abridged (tho not necessarily Bowlderized) version.
It’s about fucking time!
Spitzer is just a show case for all those who get in the way… More will follow unless these bastards are Impeached before it is too late for them and the country… just my gut feel… especially after the Segleman case…
We will know better when the FISA is passed. Blunt has probably made it clear in the secret session “they could be next”
yep… the prodigal son returns and daddy gets indigestion. I shouldn’t be happy about this, but ya know that what goes around comes back to bite you in the d**che….
jayt has swollen ankles (and is going to call his doc in the am right jay). newton tossed out maybe he was pregnant.
newton is now planning the shower in the shower or was that the conception. i get confused too vg
VG – my “Fristian” diagnosis of the swollen ankles was the obvious – knocked-up.
We are celebrating the blessed event!
You’re screwed, Dood!
Well, not recently (enough).
Immaculate conception through swollen ankles.
Sucks being me – but there may be sainthood down the road…
I can see your image in the big lime stain on the side of my garage now!
may the boosh family suffer enormous financial losses
or at least a reduction in Jenna and not-Jenna’s monthly trust fund disbursement…
they have so much stolen money that it won’t even make a dent.
Yes for a public figure that would be particularly problematic…all the lobby stuff with your political contributors…From the Police…”Every move you make every breath you take i’ll be watching you…”
When are they all going to get fed up with this bullshit. It really is simply incredibe that the congress critters are not shitting brick. Impeach off of the table ?
Yep.
It’s their liberty I want in jeopardy.
and is going to call his doc in the am right jay?
yeah, just as soon as I can remember his name…
It’s always something
(ed. note – if I’m gonna be a single mom, the Emily Litella voice might work out just fine)
they are probably trading in Iran war futures even as we speak
jayt, well I’m really sorry about the swollen ankles. and, I think the inventive interpretations of this are just wrong. Kick back, and put your feet up.
Can’t you just picture Miss Babs in the pokey. Lord.
I don’t want to soil my beautiful brain with that thought
She would have much more opportunity for growth.
i was thinking more like that ah’nold movie with danny devito

“But why should we hear about body bags and deaths and how many, what day it’s going to happen, and how many this or what do you suppose? Oh, I mean, it’s, not relevant. So why should I waste my beautiful mind on something like that?” ~ Barbara Bush ABC/Good Morning America, March 18, 2003

Amen, sister.
Alvin Lee is NOT the blues.
Take Home Quote of The Day!
“The House Republican brand is so bad right now that if it were a dog food, they’d take it off the shelf,”
No this isn’t a quote from John Stewart or Keith Olberman it’s from….
~Retiring Rep. Thomas M. Davis III (Va.), who chaired the NRCC for four years earlier this decade,
after it was revealed that the NRCC’s Chief Financial Officer, Christopher J. Ward, had created fake audits for the National Republican Congressional fundraising Committee for at least the last five years (Ward was financial officer of the group since the early 1990’s, so this could be going on for a very long time).
In 2004 and 2005 over $1,400,000 was allocated to Republican campaigns and 541 Poltical Action groups (such as the Swiftboaters) in contravention of Federal law by Ward. Ward was often the Treasurer of these Committees or given other financial tasks with them.It seems that he moved money from one group to another (with others involvement?) and then created fake books in order to cover the trail. Meanwhile he skimmed money off the funds, and it’s unclear where this went…for personal use…or political dirty tricks?
just occurred to me that I mis-spoke. It was Roseanne Roseanna-Danna who said Never mind
Hey – I’m all estrogen-addled here – gimme a break.
Far easier to picture that than the reverse.
blues is what ya make it to be – that was alvin’s blues
Iran would surely turn around Carlyle’s profit margin…!
Delbert McClinton is the blues.
oh. never mind on my 83 then…
Heh, heh!
God.
gonna have to agree to disagree
blues, like beauty, is in the mind of the beholder
another of mama boosh’s greatest hits:
In a segment at the top of the show on the surge of
evacuees to the Texas city, Barbara Bush said: “Almost
everyone I’ve talked to says we’re going to move to
Houston.”
Then she added: “What I’m hearing which is sort of
scary is they all want to stay in Texas. Everyone is
so overwhelmed by the hospitality.
“And so many of the people in the arena here, you
know, were underprivileged anyway, so this–this (she
chuckles slightly) is working very well for them.”
Migraines can come in three forms.
Migraine w/Aura
Migraine
Aura
Aura is another word for ocular. You have weird things happen in your vision, have trouble with word retreval, and your hands, arms and or mouth can go numb. If you get the headache is comes after the aura. It hurts like hell. It can ruin a day or a few days depending on the person. When the pain is over a general sense of well being happens. My theory is that you are really happy cause your head doesn’t hurt anymore.
Usually none of this is dangerous. There are a ton of meds for migraines. I am allergic to ergotomine tartrate. Makes me see stuff the same way lsd does. I take imimtrex.
Hey jayt- please take care of yourself. And, report back. We need you!
OK, that figures.
Thanks so much for that.
ok – I’m pullin’ out a quarter and throwing up a repeat from the other night:

Jon is rawking tonite! 8-)
pickle flavored?
I gotta wonder whether warbucks mccain will be conspicuously absent when congressionals rethugs vote on the inevitable tax-payer funded bail-out of Carlyle. Ya know its coming.
i’m sure the senate will be accomodating and schedule it for while mcsame and shortride are out of the country on their non-presidential candidate tour/meeting with the heads of state in europe
Very interesting, do you know Timothy Morgam of Santa Cruz (Suz’s town) who claims the last year to be NRC Treasurer? He drew up a complaint against a 218 vote here in Los Osos for us then blew us of when it was time to file a lawsuit along with the #20,000.00 we offerred him! So we had no defense to challenge what he determined was an illegal tax measure.
Mr. Morgan was involved with the Howard Jarvis Taxpayers Watch Association of Prop 13 fame. They advised the proponents of the “illegal” 218 vote. which passed in part to the threat of losing our homes if not passed in a letter to all property ownerscalled Notice of Violation NOV. Half the town of 15,000 may have to leave due to a $400.00 a month sewer bill. There could be some liability on his part. He is a boyscout troop leader.
If he was involved in what you described we need to know.
Huh, never noticed the date on that before. You should see some of the momentarily dumbfounded looks I’ve got from people when I tell them about that. A few cusses or something usually breaks through the shock …
sane county but different town :)
pickle flavored?
ummm, no thanks, puking time is coming up here in a few hours…
SAME …. fork
it will pass and then your whole body will swell and you will be wanting that pickle ice cream dood.
Jeebus – I’ve heard Indiana had some funny time zones, but that’s a bit much.
Let me reiterate, Jon is on fire, with the pig missile still on tap! 8-)
Willie Dixon said “The Blues are the true facts of life expressed in words and song,inspiration,understanding and feeling”. So I would have to agree with your call,it’s whatever you make it to be.
Dr. Murphy – I’m told that aloe is good for stretch marks.
Wives tale or miracle?
john just asked dana if boosh was kinda loopy lately!
Jeebus – I’ve heard Indiana had some funny time zones, but that’s a bit much.
yeah – it’s one of the more unpopular state laws, but ya gotta do it – pregnant or not.
I’m thinking of moving….
Also, as a technical matter, the Alvin Lee thing is in fact blues
The spotted aloe is the beneficial one, some of the others are mere ornamentals…

1. Film and sound record all events
2. Contact Btitish news rag for comtract
3. Get directions from Captain Kirk MD Ph.D as to which medical school to buy the rightd to the medical details of you pregnancy and birth.
4. Ask Dr. Kirk to provide free couseling for the kid without a father which is a trauma.
5. Documenting prenatal care such as lamaze groups may prove interesting.
6. Movie rights could be through the guy that wrote the “Rain Man”
The radical lifestyle change could be a challenging adjustment so I wish you all the best jayt.
As in Imsane?
Helen asks unfactual questions? Ummm, Dana you provide unfactual answers everytime ya answer…

Hi Chris, hi everyone!
Yep. That was sick.

The sorry part is Dana doesn’t even know that she was punked by Jon! i liked his parting shot; “I can’t comment on an on-going investigation…!” I swear it seems to be her favorite line these days…! Bwhahahaha……
Goin to the new post…

george is not going to take the news well that you were blessed and he wasn’t.
I dunno. That’s more than three Fristian deviations outside my standard practice.
bigbrother, have fun on the water manana….
That’s a blessing, I thought it was a curse, at least that’s what my wife said…! ;-)
george is not going to take the news well that you were blessed and he wasn’t.
And therein lies the pleasure. heh.
I thought George was partaking of Gannon’s “blessing”
Good that FDL has a resident psychatrist on staff…if only the White House was so lucky. Thanks Dr. Kirk…you da man
They’re in daily communication but not with anyone Up There.
I have a question…
I can’t watch the YouTube above; it stops about every 3 seconds. I rebooted, no help. Any suggestions?
(Son just got a laptop; would that make any difference?) Thanks.
Well, I shall bid ya’ll a fond adieu! Hopefully, the Dems won’t cave on Immunity, tomorrow! Aloha Oe!!!

i don’t know margot…. are his laptop hooked into your wireless?
There were a few who showed up to play, and pulled off MEMORABLE performances.
At that Woodstock. Back then.
Certainly, Alvin Lee was ready to play. Memorable!
CSN too. MEMORABLE!
Jefferson Airplane, make the Woodstock cut, too.
In MY mind, one single musician stands out.
For the entire fest.
The band didn’t suck, either.
Michael Shreeves. 17 years old. Drummer for Santana.
And a guy I went to high school with, for a year, and knew locally in San Mateo.
He was kinda young, too, 17 I think. Neil Schon.
But as kewl as Neil was, Michael Shreeves beat the HELL outta that show.
And that damned band Carlos Santana had, also had Greg Rolie on keys, and ton of percussonists, and a latin groove UNHEARD of.
And still, I hear the drummer, and I thiink of Neil Schon.
N I’m NOT givin dues to one of the best electric gits of all time, Carlos Santana.
Aside from Bloomfield, Carlos can pick. And he’s alive.
Bloomfield aint’.
Michael Phreakin Shreeves, Soul Sacrifice. Ya know? *G*
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=XnamP4-M9ko
It sounds like the laptop is eating all your bandwidth.
Evening Margot!
Suz, as I understand it, his laptop picks up signal from my Roadrunner modem. So yes.
yeap, that was one of my first posts here – that santana at woodstock video of soul sacrifice. dayam fine music.
Can ewe say that, Chepito Areas, on Congas?!?!?!
Si!!!? Ou no!!!
In the continuing effort to prove that I’m gettin’ pretty damned old, 4 Non-Blondes:

Hi Newton!
So if I close the lid (vewy quietly, it’s late here) it should turn off?
I haven’t ever seen a laptop close up before. I don’t know how to turn it off.
Stopping by to say “Hi, Pups!”
Great dinner tonight. I cooked for Ms ET and my body guard, who is back from a two-month long stint guarding the oil supplies coming out of Valdez Arm:
Bobby Flay’s brazed sea scallops on tortilla slices and corn-avocado smear
glazed pecan and pear salad with blue cheese chips
rhubarb cheesecake pie
way too many margaritas……..
I got credentialerd today as an online journalist for the Alaska Republican Convention, which begins in earnest tomorrow morning at 0800, with a debate between Don Young and his GOP challenger, State Rep. Gabrielle LeDoux, from Kodiak.
It should put the laptop to sleep, cutting its draw on the modem.
woo-forking-hoo et
ET that’s wonderful!
Great news!
and now I’m hungry again
et, that is forking great – gosh, i’m gonna be able to say i knew him when…
goodnight, ct – good dreams.
and welcome et – congrats and have fun (can you wear hip-waders?)
I couldn’t believe it – everything worked perfectly, even the rhubarb cheesecake pie. I cook a lot of scallops, but seldom deal wtih cheesecake.
Usually, this time of year, hip waders are often nearby, with breakup looming. But the GOP convention is being held in Alaska’s classiest hotel in downtown Anchorage. I’ll be wearing my dress Carrharts, though, along with my Progressive Alaska press badge.
that is so forking kewl, et – you getting press credentials after all the hard work you have done at your blog.
Since I’m just entertaining myself at this point – Del Amitri:
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=C_kieobXmeQ
I want my YOUTUBE back!!
Dang computer nazi…
And there was also in that band, Greg Rolie. One of the FINEST key board players of the time.
Only Butterfield, Bloomfield, Bishop, and Naftlin on keys matched up.
And in my mind, THEY were the best evah!!!
Short lived, though.
Carlos, changed personnel for decades, and is STILL tearing it up.
But for two albums, and some backup of Dylan, Butterfield, Bloomfield and Bishop and Naftlin, were the best ever, long before Santana and Neil, and the band, appeared.
All I can find, is Butterfield with Bishop, sans Bloomfield, Monterey Pop, ‘67
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v…..re=related
It just aint the same without Bloomfield, but it’s good~! **G
I’ll leave my politics outta this all tonite, but Shilary gotta resign. Both the senate, and the candidacy.
*G*
ET – I got an e-mail from Dianne Benson the other day – wouldn’t know anything about that, would ya?
And congrats on the credentials – looking forward to the reports.
They were really nice at the registration table. A couple of the people there know me, and know I’m fairly hostile. The guy who handed me my final stuff is the GOP opposite number to my position in the 13th state legislative district for the Democrats – party secretary. He shook my hand, as a “colleague.”
Alaska is the biggest small town in the world.
I hope you sent her a contribution. She’s the only Dem candidate for Young’s seat that would never, ever fold to the DINOs on important issues.
I’m gonna totally BOW to the person who posted 4 Non Blondes. What’s Goin On.
I’ve ALWAYS loved that song, but this version as posted is even better than any I heard on the raydeo.
THIS SONG RAWKS!!! *G*
Damn, I love her voice. And I LOVE the lyrics.
Praying for a revolution. Damn, LISTEN to her pitch changes!!!
“WHATS GOING ON!!!”
*G*
Hella version, bravo to the Pup Who Posted. Damn bravo. I haven’t been this lit up for fun in ages.
What a GREAT version!!! Thanks! *G*
ok – I will. Funds are pretty scarce at the moment, but I *will* do that.
Congratulations ET! You give new meaning to the old saw – Lead by Doing!
{{{{jayt}}}}
ET – I have to believe that the stink of Gooper politics has finally reached such a state that the real Patriots in the AK Republican party will be as happy as us to see it dissolve.
You may be more welcome there than you know.
hey npb
more like can’t keep myself from stirring up more yellow jacket nests. boy, do I love it, though.
larue, that was jayt who posted 4 non blondes. not the cut i usually hear on pig but i agree, forking rocked.
Little Feat (*with* Lowell George), Emmylou, Bonnie Raitt: “Dixie Chicken”:
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=OO3ZMdcL8Pc
a lot more on that tomorrow. there was an unsuccessful power play tonight to unseat the head of the GOP up here. they’re circling their wagons around Don and Ted, because big oil is telling them they have to. Sarah is almost by herself in this. She may even walk out, thinking it is time to switch parties.
microcosm
Allow me to add that the “stink of Gooper politics” has also reached a tipping point with many Republicans on and around the central coast of CA. and many are so disheartened they will sit the election out.
and Bonnie Raitt, her own fine self (well, with a few friends):
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=N5HpW1Sula8
sigh – bonnie is just so forking good – and underappreciated by most
A swell Thursday evening to you, NPB!
How’d you like to be a Progressive in Duncan Hunter country? No hope that those dipsticks are gonna switch or sit, even if they hate St. McCain.
yeah – wish I coulda found the version she did with John Prine…
sure wish there was a better version of prine doing bear creek but this is all i can find. dayam fine song
and the world’s second best rock-n-roll song:
Bruuuuuce!!:

warren
A swell Thurs evening right back attcha newton. So sorry to learn you must endure Duncan Hunter. He reminds me of cong critter Phil Crane of Illinois while I was in grad school in Chicago. I lived next door to his campaign manager who was just as stupid and inarticulate as his boss.
Anyone heard from Scarlett lately? Been missing pun as well.
he’s been posting over at his tales of the freeway blogger but i’ve not seen him visiting here lately.
Government Mule?
I’m seriously impressed.
love the mule. have posted several of their videos over at my place (in addition to the one up top that you may recognize)
Oh… I don’t have Hunter. Just lamenting the poor Progressives who do.
In fact, I don’t have a critter right now. Lantos territory.
anna eschoo
Thanks Suz! If I only had a brain….duh.
Gonna head for bed so niters to all you amazing late late pups – am so glad the weekend is almost here. Sweet dreams one & all!
and the number one rock-n-roll song of all time? With which no one will agree, which is actually the beauty of the whole thing:
Axl – Guns.N.Roses
Spent about a year living in some god-forsaken town in northern Indiana doing public defender work – the college station there got so used to me calling in for this one that, eventually, I didn’t even have to call any more. At 8:00, they’d just play it, “for jay”

Don’t know if you mean the same guy, up there, but Neftali Santiago’s been putting up a lot of Mandrill videos the last couple of months.
Enter here: “Mandrill” 1971
good lord – don’t have any idea who the guy is, but he can play a guitar….
Abraxas album…Sanatana…the freat drums from the Mission? or Portero
Black Magic Women
Guns & Roses always dynamite
You might like Yma Sumac sings EIGHT octaves
Nice groove and good sense of humor
i love that one too. he’s got a new cd out and its being featured this week on my radio station… called a long way from tupelo. another fav of mine that he does
nope – can’t listen to that one – or it’ll be in my head for about a week…. *g*
thought perhaps you could add it to your pre-court playlist
here’s my utube channel, jayt. lots of ear candy
your pre-court playlist
oh – you caught that, huh?
Obviously, every trial is different and calls for different tactics, but for, oh, better than 50% of them, I wanna be in a “I’m not taking any. shit. – from. anyone. frame of mind.
Therefore, it’s the soundtrack from Pulp Fiction that sends me into court in the proper mood – has been for years – not sure how many copies of that (at least 2 or 3 tapes and a CD) that I’ve purchased – but they’re worth their weight in gold….
when my girls would come in and find the doors morrison hotel/hard rock cafe blaring they would quietly slip into their rooms and steer clear of mom until maggie mcgill was trailing off (along with the obligatory wait to see if the album/casssette/cd was repeated)
yeah, we’ve become a strange breed indeed. When I get into my son’s (my) car, I’m bombarded by millions of megawatts of rap. I hate it, but also hate to call him on it, ’cause it makes me look/feel so old. I mean, I know a little bit about music, and can explain to him that rap is just percussion with a voice attached, but why bother?
kids like their own music, have always done so, and have always pissed off their parents by doing so.
I dunno, I just look around and entertain myself.
In a perfect world, I would either own a radio station, or a bar with the world’s coolest jukebox….
that’s about it for me,pups. thanks for hanging with me tonight
jayt, i’ll be expecting to hear what the doc said – hope you get some sleep.
attaturk’s upstairs.
OK (if there are any pups still about) -
Skipping to the bottom of the thread and b/c I don’t usually “get” snark -
Jayt *is* or *isn’t* preggers? B/c if *she* is, my whole mental picture just got blown outta the water. *g*
he’s gonna say that I ruined my ankles a long time ago.
Night, Suz – been a pleasure…
nite suz
bailing also
well hello!! We’ve just been dancing and joking around the absurdity of my (still very male) self being pregnant, on account of I mentioned that my ankles are all swollen up…
night, newton.
Well! Snark it was, then. *g* Ya just can’t tell these days when some husbands say, “We’re pregnant.” See you upthread.
