g’evening pups

hi suzanne

I can haz Late Late Night!

how’s everyone tonight

Saving Grace?

What, is she tied to the railroad tracks, or something?

getting tired. busy day. you?

Suzanne!
Got a Petty “Jones” after the other night. Sweet job!

tired is my middle name

Hi DrDick,
You are the calm of OBGYN here. I’m a DES baby. Any advice?

epu’d from below
not trying to start or stir some shit but is this the same Larry Johnson from the Plame affair?

If so, wow off his fuckin rocker

tired as well. did lots of cooking/baking today for a bereaved family

Uhoh, I’m chit-chatting with JoFish and a whole new thread is started…!

Bless you, Wobbly!

bom dia, ctuttle

I am calm only because I am a single male with only male offspring. I do have a step granddaughter whom I hope my son and his wife get vaccinated. She is a lovely girl and deserves to be protected (as do all young girls and boys). I belong to the school of thought that says if it doesn’t harm you and it may help you, then you should do it. I also think Big Pharma is a cancer on society and needs to be yanked up by the short hairs, but that is for another time.

one less thing for them to have to worry about. It will start over tomorrow but mostly baking and stuff that they can eat at any time

very kind

alas, ’tis one and the same.

Anyone with a haircut like that cannot be taken seriously.

OK, I’m out of here. I gotta get up and like teach in the morning and I am out of practice after a week off (not that I actually slept in, dammit).

g’nite dr dick

nite DrDick

wow, that is stomach churning. wtf happened to the big tent party? this type of bile i expect from the right not folks calling themselves progressives.

so congress comes back this week. the little voice in the back of my head says that its gonna be a bumpy ride and to strap in.

‘night, DrDick!
BTW, 81 here today. 85 tomorrow. :)

boa noite, dr dick

Sleep well Dr D. I think I may be right behind you.

Spinal injections tomorrow. Last set for this round. Hope they’re even more helpful than the last set. Night all.

*chuckle*

i’m clean on this one ct (laughing)

This is my youngest. If you look in the background really hard you can see Teddy in The City.

pain free sleep wishes tex

boa noite, texbetsy and good luck with the shots

C’mon, lets give it up for the Nats crowd…

Bush gets loudly booed at Nationals home opener

http://www.crooksandliars.com/…..me-opener/

‘night, TexBetsy.

I saw that earlier. Made my day, week, month. aaahahahaha!

teddy needs to get a new laundry detergent – i see a mustard stain that did not get removed on his left sleeve

BTW, 81 here today. 85 tomorrow. :)

damn.

or

So?

woohoo.. been waiting for this to show up.. thanks ct

seriously, what has happened to our party that people say stuff like this? have i been blind to this whole time? (referring to larry johnson piece)

i watched it a few times and loved his expression at his realization that he was being boo’d

I’m sure Shrub will receive similar welcomes, as Card, Rove, AGAG, etal… Doesn’t Paraguay look more inviting everyday…? *g*

Is Larry Johnson a D?

Hi Selise…I’m in central FL, and my rep is Adam Putnam…there has to be at least one upside to living here. :)

egads we don’t want him in south america either. he has something planned for that land….

a former repug turned dem????

OK Suze, let’s try again – what do you do when life hits you like a truck?

My wife, who normally doesn’t watch sports, unless it’s a New England team playing, said he doesn’t look too thrilled…! *g*

that guy, i pick myself up, put on some bandages and try to get out of the forking road

you ok?

Wasn’t he a spook? No pun intended.

(Hesitating to hit the Submit Comment button.)

i loved it. of course i could have done without the follow up ass kissing interview by the announcers. humans suck sometimes!

Think Progress had the first posted video of it, we (firepups) commented live… It was awesome…!

Yep! I’m good.

But, like our buddy always sings – when life hits you like a truck, you got to RISE UP! When I need a lift, that’s the song I always listen to and it always works!

cia, if i’m not mistaken. i know he is highly regarded here for his work on the plame affiar. i just wasn’t sure if this ass hat was the same guy ( i was hoping it wasn’t)

you know KO is gonna have fun with it

i have a very dear life-long friend who lives in central florida. have been to visit her many time over the years.

Shrub, later on popped into the booth and they merely commented on his high throw, I was nauseated to see Joe Morgan not raise the booing…!

good nite (i hope) all.

I hope you’ll shoot me a mail next time…is your friend on the west coast?

I’m looking forward to it…!

Sometimes?

boa noite, selise

Aloha, Selise!

g’nite selise – may your sleep be heavy and uninterrupted

i expected just that. they weren’t going to mention the 800lb gorilla in the room

Good night Selise.

Cheney was there?

gorilla dear, not asshole

suz–way epu’d i found it

i am worn out, going to gather my things, hug my animals, pick out comfy jammies and climb into quiet slumber.

life has been hard this week due to people being fooled by things looking one way when they really are another.

both here and abroad.

(iraq and teh last thread)

epu’d message—

after browser quitting, slow dial-up and things unspoken, epu’d, i don’t care. ”the little turtle with the spunky bullhorn” says=

DR DICK AND DR KIRK

everybody’s cryin’ mercy when they don’t know the meanin’ of the word, written by mose allison, sung by bonnie raitt, in the 80’s i would listen to it when most disgusted, as i am tonight. i haven’t listened to this you tube, but if it’s the one i had before, isn’t the whole thing, is rare, and this is the only one, but it’s the right message. passed on with love.

http://youtube.com/watch?v=eLd…..re=related

suz, also on the side menu, your favorite raitt tune, written by chris smithers,who comes ’round here, love me like a man.

love and kisses.

Nope, but Powell was…!

Hugs Wobbly, you are kind.

roflmao like a gorilla.

dang, that’s not her singing it – its someone names martina :(

sleep well

Cheney was at an undisclosed location doing undisclosed mischief

dayam, i wish someone would stick blanks in his gun

Aaaarrrrgggghhhh. Getting ready to go to bed and just remembered I forgot to put my wash in the dryer

oh crap, neuro, i hate that! at least you did not forget to do it at all

thanks, margot. we are our sister and brother’s keeper.

reminds me of that wonderful bumper sticker someone posted earlier on fdl.

Of Course It Hurts; You are Being Screwed by an Elephant

SPEW

i gotta get that bumper sticker

my 70–forgot to add, this song is at my top 10 of all time favorites.

and i am a music freak.

hands down best.

me too but i saw the following today during a food run:

the gop:
our bridge to the 11th century

*g*

hahahaha cafe press has em – tshirts too

more bumper stickers:

Bush: End of an Error

That’s OK, I Wasn’t Using My Civil Liberties Anyway

Bush. Like a Rock. Only Dumber.

If You Can Read This, You’re Not Our President (i want to get this one *g*)

Hey, Bush Supporters: Embarrassed Yet?

America: One Nation, Under Surveillance

No, Seriously, Why Did We Invade Iraq?

NPB has on her car:

Bush Deserves A 3rd Term
A Prison Term

I love those bumper stickers. I just can’t see putting them on my car where I live. I saw already a sticker of Calvin pissing on Hillary, and another thing I won’t even mention. Made me scared to drive near that person, though.

ok last ones

We’re Making Enemies Faster Than We Can Kill Them

Be nice to America or we’ll bring democracy to your country.

gotta avoid those your bumpersticker is teh sucky arguements

hehe calvin pissing on hillary…hehehehe

Who knew Jeb was the smart one?

okay that was my last bumper sticker post

John McCain:
Worse than Bush

I am afraid to put bumper stickers on my car lest it get vandalized.

Repukes are sometimes not nice people.

I didn’t like it at all.

put one next to it that says ’smile, you’re on candid camera’

true
i want to order this and put it on our car

Bush Doesn’t Care About White People, Either

i think its funny because i’m a calvin fan.

maybe this one is better

Dub’ya, Your Dad Should’a Pulled Out, too!

ouch… i like that one too

suz at 74–wellllllll shiiiiiiite………..thought i was deliverin’ your favorite with my favorite, oh wiellllllllllll……

next time.

listen to everybody’s cryin’ mercy, nothin’ like it.

look up chris smither doing love me like a man-see if that’s on you tube…….he’s great. he wrote it.
that might do.

let me know if you find it.

Sadr militia kicked a little ass then put out a peaceful truce.

Very sagacious. Do not believe that he is turning the other cheek that would show weakness.

With Bush pride always comes before the fall…to bad he drags us unwilling down with him. ($3 Trillion later)Irak will unite as a Muslim nation, both shite groups and the Sunnis will agree to live as muslim nation formally but with autonomy. Sounds like the plans have been around for some time to me. We boogie over Afghanistan (our presence). We keep air and naval superiority. Our logistic requirements are much less egregious. So 7 tears after 911 do we finally go after Osama Bin Laden and Al Queda? Maybe the Sauds have told Bushco you go after our boy and you pay bigger premium for oil.

Bushco had Sadaam as an ally against Iran, then Sadr shites against Sadaam. With no one left to betray withdrawal is the only option. If Sadr can negotiate the unity treaty we can walk freely.

Bush will say we saved Iraq from Sadaam and the Shias will say they saved Irak from us. No oil deal with USA this way. I say keep the pollution in the ground and protect the global atmosphere from more warming.

If you think the desert is hot now, and it is, Global warming will make it almost uninhabitable. Just sayin.

Heh, the best part of him dribbled done Bab’s leg… (ducking…)

rofl

‘Course, that’d be down…

I don’t do bumper stickers, because I don’t want my car to be vandalized. However, I put one of those flag sticker thingies on my car, about 3 years ago. Put up upside down. So, far so good, except for having been treated to a few middle finger salutes while driving.

my bumper sticker says-

when you tell the truth you don’t have to remember what you said.

i’m putting this on my car …

I’LL GIVE UP MY CHOICE WHEN JOHN ROBERTS GETS PREGNANT

will do dmac yours is a great tune also just that man was my first bonnie and has always been special to me for totally different reasons

dayam, all these great bumperstickers – if i put all the ones i liked on my car, ya could not tell what color the car is

truth be told, I live in an area of leftie movie types so it’s safe here. I tend to go for tshirts or baseball caps for serious shock value when in repugville

LOL same here. I can oonly pick a few and the rest have to be in tshirt form

Is that a bad thing…? *g*

But the DFH is the bestest because folks that don’t know are going to ask and hehehe the possible reactions are too priceless

guess it depends on the paint job

Or lack thereof…!

and if the glue in the bumpersticks is doing double duty to help hold the fenders on

Hi VG

or cover rust holes?

Almost better than Duct tape…! ;-)

Hi Neuro- what’s up?

clothes are out of the dryer and hung up

nite all.

Didya return the ’salute’? ;-)

Aloha, neuro!

nothing is better than duct tape!!! it held my vw sun roof on for years !!! *g*

The climate there has been getting worse for some time, from what I remember. The Himalayas have something to do with that.

g’nite neuro

boa noite, neuro

I have 2 household items that have made life so much easier- one is Duct tape, and the other is WD-40.

if it moves and aint supposed to, the duct tape
if it doesn’t move and is supposed to, the wd40

my dad taught me that one a long time ago and it is still true, vg

VG, I like this response to the flag decals…!

mr wobbs just sent this to me (bumper sticker)

Nice Hummer—Sorry About Your Penis

anyone have any guesses what the scandal du jour is gonna be to kick off the business week tomorrow?

prime prine!

That ain’t no wife’s tale, either…!

primo prine

hud sec. resigning to spend more time with someone’s wife

i guess andy card’s family was already booked up

i think that is gonna be small potatoes in the scandal du jour business

sad that that’s true, it won’t even register on the radar

LOL!
I’d love to somehow get a rather Napoleonic doctor here to see that.
He was the first one in town to get a Hummer.

i think the whole food-stamp-use-at-an-all-time-high is an administraton scandal but that won’t register either

Course I did! But when I was living and driving in in the UK, it was really challenging. Bec. there the V sign, two fingers aloft, palm forward meant the same thing. They didn’t get the much simpler middle finger salute. I had to really struggle to communicate in traffic.

hehehehe made me think of this

i’m in l.a. (or rather close by) and rice diks must be rampant because we see lots of hummers rolling around our part of the world

got back out of bed because i forgot to post this–being sent all over the us. trying to track bee patterns.

http://www.greatsunflower.org

needs to get out now, before sowing season.

free seeds.

they’re still trying to figure out what is going on with the bees. lots of theories, they all agree they don’t know.

won’t get into why it’s so important. you all have a brain. think food. bees #1 pollinator.

so tired, good night.

(name that tune)
now it’s time to say goodnight, good night, sleep tight

now the sun turns out it’s light
good night sleep tight

dream sweet dreams (of) you.

Suz- that is classic- and totally fits my experience with Duct tape and WD-40!!!!!!!

they have infested norcal too, wobbly

lmao

california: home of the fruits, nuts, berries and rice dicks.

ah-nold represents ca well then… i’m just saying

Thanks, CT- that is a great find!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! (sorry for all the !!!!, Suz)

thanks dmac
if the bees go, we are totally hosed

i heard steroids will shrink tinky winky…

watch it… rbg will put ya on probation if ya make it a habit (laughing my ass off)

There’s quite a few here in my part of west michigan, but i’m actually starting to see more Toyota Prius around. I was surprised to see at least 4 in one day, and there’s at least one that follows a similar commute to my own.

One of the regular patients i have has one of those damned things too. I had to reign in my glare when he drove up to the pharmacy drive thru in that damned thing. Too lazy to walk in as well as overcompensating. *rolls her eyes* I’m with most canadians on the subject of Hummers. HATE them. I’m happy when i visit my grandma in sarnia to not see a single on in town at all.

Heh, I’d heard it was the home of the fruits, nuts, and, flakes…! ;-)

hehehehe! I KNEW you would get it!!!!!!!!!!!!

I’ll attest to that!!! ;-)

just look what you started vg

dayam, almost a years worth of work gone as ct triples again

(where’s that banging my head against the desk animated icon again)

never heard flakes before *g*

*sigh* What a shame…!!! ;-)

Nope, CT got it. I think he got it. He has been sternly warned. And, I never ever have done those ! multiples at FDL. But, I just couldn’t resist teasing CT a bit. FDL institutional memory is one of the things that makes this place so great.

I’ll behave…! *g*

or on.

Ain’t it grand…!!! *g*

where have i heard that before

boa noite, pups

gonna talk to inlaws in england and then off to bed

guess it depends on what tickles your pickle, teddy

g’nite wobbly

Do you have just the thing…? ;-)

Aloha, M’dear!

ct this gonna affect you?

The boos are dialed way down and out of earshot on the cnn video, protecting the preznit and his subjects from hurt feelings

how can we make them stop doing that crap, teddy?

feet – meet fire?

Well, there will certainly be a video of Trinity’s new preacher’s sermon from earlier today. I figure we’re going to get one of those every single Monday until Election Day.

no matter how many letters we write and how many calls we make, they continue doing this crap.

You betcha, one less competitor, and a lot of jobs… I knew they’d filed but not that, I’ll probably see it on the front page tomorrow…!

i wonder if go!’s business strategy is to run everyone else outta business with their ultra low rates and then whammo, the rates go through the roof

Ironically, Hawaiian Air had gotten a sizable judgement from go! for unfair business practices… Apparently too late for Aloha!

bet they are bush rangers ct

Mesa Air is the principal backers of go!…

i smell GOP

Of course, with Aloha, it’s not just the rates that go through the roof.

I couldn’t sleep. So, I downloaded these pics I took during my walk this afternoon. Enjoy.

perhaps that is why cheney travels in his travel trailer inside the plane

eye candy! i particularly liked the white lily through the glass

Heh, that was a tragic incident, but, it’s not reassuring when a go! crew fall asleep and fly twenty minutes past their destination…

Mesa took over CalPac and numerous other SW airlines…

Beauty of a boutique that is. They sell these amazing candles, the place is totally in the dark, except for the lit wax. Overpriced does not even describe it, but…

Where is the Dark Lord, anyway? Has he returned from mongering war among our allies in the MidEast?

Oh, he’s home.

Thought I felt a shift in The Force.

Bonne nuit tout le monde. I really have to try to shut my eyes.

another interesting spread
nite Quebecois

Can’t wait for the DeeCee press corps to grill the Veep and his staff on exactly when and for how much his family will reimburse the USGovt for Liz and Lynne’s travel costs, since they were along ‘as private citizens.’

I’m not holding my breath.

Very discouraging to read he’s planning many more trips before he leaves office in January. Discouraging to read about the trips, not the leaving office, which is, of course, devoutly to be hoped.

g’nite q

What a warrior chicken hawk…

“More often, Cheney’s days on the road are spent holed up on planes, helicopters, hotel rooms and stuffy government buildings,’’ she notes in an AP dispatch from Washington. “They are long, grueling days.”

Chimpy: “I can has mor trupes, plz, NATO?”

President Bush heads to Europe today to try to rescue the faltering mission in Afghanistan, and key NATO allies plan to meet his demands for more forces with modest troop increases, though not by as much as U.S. military officers say is needed to put down a stubborn Taliban insurgency.

France has signaled it will announce at this week’s NATO summit that it will send another 1,000 troops to Afghanistan, while Britain plans to send about 800 more and Poland has already promised another 400. But Germany and others refuse to contribute additional ground forces, and the United States may have to increase its own commitment to make up the shortfall, U.S. and European officials and analysts said.

The friction over force levels underscores a philosophical divide between the United States and its allies over the best approach in Afghanistan more than six years after U.S.-led forces toppled the Taliban government — and, more broadly, over the future of the NATO alliance. The summit in Bucharest, Romania, which begins Wednesday, will also test the allies over issues such as NATO enlargement, missile defense and the relationship with an increasingly muscular Russia.

Nothing on the agenda is more important to Bush’s legacy than turning Afghanistan around. “It’s very clear that we all need to do more,” national security adviser Stephen J. Hadley said last week. “The president’s message is going to be one of the importance of success in Afghanistan, the need for all countries to make it a priority, the need for us to develop a more integrated strategy for success and the need for all of us to do more.”

NATO: “No, kthzbai”

Aloha, Mon Ami!

the coalition of the unwilling

Makes Cheney sound like an assistant regional sales manager for Honeywell, doesn’t it? Except for the helicopters, I suppose, and the constantly attentive secret service and the ever-present EMS crew. And taking his wife and kid along to haggle for rugs for his new mansion in McLean.

What did John Kerry call it? The “so-called coalition of the bribed, the coerced, the bought, and the extorted.”

I like the orange flower on the blue plate, with the candles. Beautiful.

if not those exact words, words very similar iirc

its forking cold on this side of the hill – forking bitter wind all day and nite… any better on your side?

For once, it’s nearly as cold here as there. See my breath as we speak (type). Feels like frost, no wind.

May I chime in and say it’s a tad nippy here…? ;-)

Forking cold on southern Monterey Bay coast as well. :~(

hahahahaha ihasahotdog (think locats but for dogs)
