Hi Suzanne
Suz!

The Bosssss….!!!
The newly resigned Argentinian Minister of the Economy looks like he should be teaching college girls how to play tennis.
-G
EPued
Suz you know better than to start a “whose dog is better war” We all feel ours is best… Token is great I know after meeting him… Tucker and Token got along great once they got past the smell test for each other:>)
le pant le pant… he musta been poured into those pants…. (fanning face) young bruce
I was gonna mention that it was a young Bruce…! ;-)
That Argentinian minister ain’t bad either!
OMG…. they are reporting those “rebate” checks are coming early and will be sent out next week……. the local evening news….. “How are you going to spend that money?”
if ya’ll click on the bruce link in the post, it will take ya to his site, where he has a very moving memorial to danny – including bruce’s eulogy.
Hiya All,
Just finished crying over The Deer Hunter. I know that most of the stuff was of Hollywood, but it still makes me sob.
I had a girlfriend in high school who did put her jeans on wet so that she could get them on her body.
Hey Suz I did a little digging for ya!
*sigh* replacing my water heater if it holds out long enough for the check to arrive
What’s her address and phone number, please?
I’m buying rice, call me the hoarder…
thanks, nahant
gnome, i had a pair that i had to lay down on the bed to zip up but once they were one, they looked fine – as long as i remembered not to drink any fluids.
hi there, suzanne, what’s shakin’?
Hey, there were shops in Paris where one lay down on benches to fit jeans on…really
hey teddy. how’s the city tonight?
How goes the nuptial prep Suze? We’re still waiting on the masters. Probably tomorrow. You think you can make the partah?
As promised here is MoveOns link to their petition
What the hell am I talking about, i’m not american, not getting that check..
Well, it’s time for moi to go.
Bonne nuit tout le monde.
Hi Christine!
G’nite, pups – the laptop is on a foreign tour right here in the house: weird non-merrikun chracters keep coming up. (I think they’re here to take my precious vital fluids…)
I’m gonna go look for furriners under the bed. Maybe they’ll come out and purr.
[but none of those damn molluscofowliscts better show their feathered shells….]
Bright blessings and happy animal guides….
(and the felines say g’nite, too.)
Suz the Boss is always great music and tis a sad day for the band with Danny passing :>(
still waiting? hope they show up soon, that guy. i’m still maybe – the bride to be is getting rather jittery with the wedding next month

nite nite again
g’nite q
g’nite kirk
I was going to ask if you were heating water on the stove yet.
g’nite sadly yes
Kirk sounds like your laptop is in need of the doctor!!
HE makes house calls!!
not yet. my neighbor looked at it, said it is leaking from the bottom, had me turn down the temp and said it should last a little while longer and should not blow me and the house up (my biggest worry).
Gas fired?
Since music is often a hot topic here as well as politics, if anyone would like to get an original print by McClatchy Political Cartoonist Rex Babin “Should I Stay or Should I Go”or some interesting alternative, folk, punk or international music while helping a good cause (a cool free-form radio station called KDVS) drop by a look around. Lot’s of interesting items to helkp the “Alternative Voice of Sacramento Valley” and keep Amy Goodman on the Air.
Katy, here’s the payment schedule It depends on the last two digits of your SSN!
Good night Dear Kirk,
Tomorrow is another day.
Christine
yeap
And is it the tank or the relief valve?
I have seen a lot of those go bad and they are at the bottom of the tank……..
Well kids…. heading off to bed…. Nite all
i had to pay taxes so used a reverse direct deposit (they took it outta my checking account) – does that mean i’ll get a direct deposit check or does it mean i’ll get a paper check.
Katy, check out my comment at 38!
g’nite katymine
busted, he said he checked the valve first and it was fine that the tank was leaking from the bottom – that it was rusting out??? (puzzled look on face)
Good night sleepy pups.
Hiya, pups! Home early from work. Couldn’t get to work this morning when a carjacker closed the only highway into Anchorage down for three hours, with a pistol in his mouth in the stolen, totalled SUV. So I had to try to get to work twice.
The good news, though, is that I was told today that Don Young’s (R – Abramoff) communications director called me a “one-man wrecking crew” the other day in D.C.
Should be deposited directly in, considering they have the info…!
Hi Chris, Suz, all.
I will certainly welcome my check.
Just was checking it out….. still have to finish paying off all those medical bills from last fall…..
Woohoo! A one man wrecking crew! You are scaring up some trouble dooood! Keep it going!
et that sucks
but *standing on chair clapping* for the one man wrecking crew – that’s high praise, dood :)
Yep, they rust out.
Bummer.
No recourse bu to change the forker.
Beings as it’s gas fired it is just a little bit more technical than electrical but they can usually be replaced in about two hours.
unless I do it, then it takes at least three forkin trips to the harswareb store.
Never fails, ever.
What a compliment! Doing good work, ET.
Bastards! I’m at the end of the list!
i hear that harswareb stores are like crack – they keep ya coming back for more…
Harsewereb?
Spell check , FAIL!
or that they have to bring the whole effing installation up to code. That did me in one year.
Sizing those fittings can be tricky, BK! ;-)
fuck
Hey Margot!
They used to make the tanks out of copper but… they started making them out of iron… thus they will only last about ten years these days… the old ones never leaked and lasted a life time…. you every thing is disposable!
Suzanne! Back away from that keyboard! Kirk’s furriners have invaded your realm!
This is rich. The Israeli Ambassador is calling Jimmy Carter A Bigot. Israel has denied basic civil and human rights to Palestinians for over two generations and he calls CARTER a bigot?
Good news ET keep it up Alaska needs you!!
As a law enforcement pro, you can appreciate the fiasco didn’t turn out a whole lot worse. One officer – the one who rammed the carjacked SUV – hurt, but dicharged from the hospital. I was about 100 or so cars back.
i was quoting busted gnome… its busted who’s keyboard was invaded
In really hard water areas like ours we are lucky if we get five years out of a tank – copper or iron. Here it pays to have a water softener.
The keyn is to get one as close to the same size as ya got now so ya don’t have to replumb the SOB.
And the United States Government allows it to go unchallenged, the grossest insult of a former Chief Executive possible.
uh don’t you mean FORK???
Sure you were… I didn’t see any quotation marks…! 8-P
and the poor carjacked victim gets victimized twice, once by being carjacked and once by the insurance co who will pay off the loan on the totaled car with (if lucky) a grand to buy a car with for the victim.
I give up.
Both fingers have turned into left thumbs tonight.
Gnome, they did that to me too. We were cut off from having any hot water, any gas at all for 5 1/2 months. We needed a chimney liner.
look up to busted comment that i was replying too
Heh, you expect Condi or Shrub to denounce him…?
the bride to be called me tonight to tell me her fiance cut off his finger at work today
i was able to find out that it was the tip of his middle finger left hand.
Well, I hope to shit they get here tomorrow. I’m starting to get nervous about “lost in shipping.”
Can’t afford to lose these. Cool on the maybe, just checkin’.
Oh my. Then he can be Jerry Garcia…
That is funny. I read hardware store in his post the first time. Now I see Harsewereb. Funny what one’s eyes do to ya.
ET,
right on dude!
Ya know yer doin it right when they single ya out as the trouble maker.
More pwer to ya!
may 18th that guy?
Okay, so with 99.99% of its districts reporting, the gap is:(1245911-1037953)/(1245911+1037953) = .09105533429311027276
which rounds off to 9.1%
Meanwhile gasoline is running $3.999 to $4.1999 locally for premium and twenty cents less for regular.
Whoa, that hugs, how’d that happen…?
Circular saw?
OUCH!
I have been told you need to soak it in …..
UMMM, nevermind.
wigwam, i paid $3.86 today at the cheap station down in felton.
May 10.
You love numbers, eh wigwam?
table saw
they stuck the tip back on, wrapped it up and sent him back to work. them coasties are tough sumbitches. he goes back to the doc monday to see what next.
Up in San Jose that’s the price too. Fucking ridiculous.
Another fine the insurance companies have foisted upon us… we have to have insurance but they won’t pay for a full replacement… dam how do I get into that kind of business where even though the customer pays for the full thing you can get away with paying pennies on the dollar… some kind of scam they get to have with government approval to boot :>(
FORK…. ok, i wrote it down wrong … changing it on the calendar now…:)
I’m trying to write about the vote against cloture on HR 2831. FDL wrote about it 2x today – Redd and Tula. Anyone here know the best article out there yet on this fiasco? Both Ted Stevens and Lisa Murkowski voted with the rest of their GOPborgs.
I think that when they start flingin’ that sort of poo at you…it means that you are having an effect. They should recall that it was “Carter The Bigot” that got Sadat and Begun to actually sign a peace treaty (for which Sadat later paid the ultimate price).
A great Jewish philosopher said “Ye shall know them by their deeds, not their words.”
OK, Gus the annoying cat has jumped onto my lap for the fourth time tonight. I think that means I need to go to bed.
By the time Monday arrives, the tip will not be able to be reattached…
They ask if we’ve reached peak oil production. The oil companies say that won’t happen for another fourty years. But the price has gone up by a factor of four or five since Bush took office and the production increases, especially in the past three years, have not occurred. That’s almost the definition of peak.
If thats is the date your going to have to chose between a live performance and a recording. But Julie’s is in the morning :>)
That means you need to throw cat treats across the room.
Not really, but every once in a while, I check them out.
I bet you have that right Gnome is like any pet owner and spoiling the pet is SOP :>)
When I snipped the end off my little finger the ER sewed it back on in order to staunch the bleeding, which we could not get stopped any other way. Eventually the cut-off piece fell off, like a scab, but I had only cut off skin and not bone or nail. Today you can’t tell that anything ever happened.
she said from the cuticle up is gone – its above that first knuckle.
FORK
Funny McCain has with all this time to himself free from attacks from Democrats and the press not that we were expecting them to do anything. But has McCain been able to raise more money than Hilary our second place candidate?
Forget the polls I think the media is leaning the questions toward McCain. Money is the true poll and given that McCain is the only person running from the *cough* probusiness party his third place finish in the money race behind Hilary is the true story.
Has the GOP ever had a front runner who has raised less money than the Democrats second placer in the fundraising contest?
How long ago has it been since a Democrat has beaten a GOPer in the fundraising this late in the race.
Why is the press not reporting about all the Corporations who used to give to the GOP giving to the Dems?
whew… missed the Late Late 2night… gotta go snoozzzzze. Catch you all tomorrow.. :)
Damn, that’s going to throb like a sick chickens ass.
g’nite jofish
I almost lost the tip of my left middle finger in the landing gear of a C-130. Severed the top tendon and a few of the blood vessels, not a pretty sight. They did some creative reconstruction, which included the use of a drill and a button on the bottom side of the finger, but if it weren’t for the permanent crook in the finger and a few extra scars, you wouldn’t be able to tell the difference.
The bright side of it (besides getting to keep the tip) was getting to show people the splint on my finger any time they asked how it was. I always exhibited it extended in the vertical position with all the other fingers curled out of the way, of course. :)
LOL
OK, enough blood and gore. Well, maybe not enough Gore. Anyhow, I am off to dream sweet dreams. See you guys tomorrow.
Gnite Gnome,
.
Here’s an interesting Pew Poll has shown that both Obama and illary are equally electable vs. McCain…especially in the Battleground states.
Aloha, Jo and Gnome!
Congratulations – high praise.
Ooops, got a little quick with my fingers there – “Hillary” of course…and the survey was undertaken in late February and through March…so there may have been some changes since then.
VA official accused of covering up suicide rates
This is sick this Administration never tells the truth:>(
Get into teh TBogg, FrontPagers.
We got Pre-Friday Random Ten going on right now.
The Laura Bush thread.
Teh Obama’s Way went deep into y’all.
And BTW…
hat we have seen here speaks for itself.
The Tbogg homepage has been taken over–conquered, if you will–by a master race of giant FrontPagers.
It’s difficult to tell from this vantage point whether they will consume the captive Tboggians or merely enslave them.
But one thing is for certain–there is no stopping them; the FrontPagers will soon be here.
And I for one welcome our new FrontPage Overlords.
I’d like to remind them that as a respected physician I can be helpful in rounding up others to toil in their underground sugar caves.
Please come on over and see us. We don’t bite.
he stayed at work and completed his shift. like i said, tough sumbitches
geez, i’ve never been an overlord before do i gotta pay dues – is there an organization i have ta join?
Big Corporations have Lobbyist to advise them on what political party to spend their campaign cash they have Lawyers who tell them what they need from government.
They have economic planners and accountants who tell them what the economy will be like in 6 months and what they have to tell shareholders…even no especially if they don’t want to but are legally obliged to.
Like the current chairman of GE did much to Jack Welch’s anger, some think Jack fudged the numbers to appear great much like Enron.
The thing is the Big Corporations with all their money Lobbyists, Accountants, Economic Planners oh and Super Computers can’t forget them are giving more money to the Dems than the GOP.
But the MSM is worried about Democrats snipping over who gets the big pie while they ignore poor little McCain selling his soul on hateful Preachers, tax cuts and torture issues and people he once opposed for the scraps of the money pie.
It’s a Simpsons’ joke.
You’re feeling the groove.
I’ve seen you OVER THERE.
Thanks for stopping by.
Evidently you didn’t read my post yesterday! ;-)
off to the hay. G’night all.
i can’t be marge.. i just got my hair cut – i refuse to be grandpa and don’t even get me started on the sisters…
g’nite that guy
LOL!
ya misseed a new post over there while ya were over here!
Thanks!
Aloha, TG!
Yeap, someone started yawning before they left and now I am too.
Goodnight y’all.
It’s all about a state of mind and has fuck all to do with teh hair…
I haven’t even got hair…bald as a stone.
All should go and register your personal pre-Friday Top Ten.
If yours goes to eleven, it’s all good.
g’nite busted
dood, i can’t leave – i’m the forking host here
Aloha, Busted!
Nice poll lets assume McCain can win please suspend all logic for a minute now given this longer Democratic Primary how is McCain who is behind hugely in money and behind in this poll going to catch up if he can’t get press coverage.
McCain needs to do something to shake the numbers and get someone besides pollsters and the press believing in him.
McCain is the one running out of time.
Al Fraken in his book Lies and the lying Liars who tell them pointed out that Bush got much more favorable coverage than Al Gore.
I wonder how the press is treating McCain?
It would really be sad if McCain is getting the same Royal Treatment Bush got with the press AND HE’S STILL CAN’T RAISE THE MONEY HILARY CAN.
Never mind Obama God knows how McCain the third placer in the money Primary would hope to have a chance against him.
things, mcsame is getting a fluff job from the press. its like they ran that one ‘vicki the lobbyist’ story and now he can do no wrong
All Iraq and Afghan veterans should anticipate a phone call…
Missed it! KO did cover it today but I felt it should be better publicized to all. Veteran issues are near and dear to me… My generation HAD to serve and now many have been screwed out of their medical benefits by this Administration!! These rethuglians don’t give a flying fuck about those who serve… they would just as well wish all just went away!!
Sincere thanks for hosting the party.
McSame=USA Fucked.
about forking time. why are they waiting and not doing it NOW?
tis my pleasure
and yeap – without even dinner and a movie first.
It seems the VA is bending over backwards to get some positive publicity out to the public, I wonder why? ;-)
When did that happen?? Last time I was at the VA there signs saying they were entitled to 2 years of services… I hope you are right!!
betcha more shit is about ready to hit a VA fan…
Because the VA is still fubar…!
$$$$$$ you know they have to be CONSERVATIVES!! No money for the VETS if they can help it
I still don’t have an iPod, but I always go see what people are listening to.
it was fubar before boosh co – i can only imagine how fubar it is now – looking at the way boosh has forked up doj which was a fully functioning agency before he got his hands on it makes me very concerned about our vets.
This was also in the article…
same here – no ipod but i find great tracks from looking at other’s playlists
There ought be a specific law! After the next election, with faboo hearings. Take testimony on how many times gov’t officials have
liedmisspoken to the press and public. Subpoena em all (pardoned or not)Sheldon Whitehouse officiating.
My Senator, Akaka is one of them and he just so happens to be the Chair of the Sen. VA committee…!
Now then has anyone else seen the business channels and the way they drool over McCain and scream the Democrats will raise your taxes all the time? Or sniff (sob) am I the only one watching these hacks?
All the business news I get I don’t get Fox business channel, which is suppose to be even more pro happy talk because Kudlow wasn’t a big enough cheerleader for the market/whore for a bubble economy.
Forget Balance the facts are that on taxes ending the war means lower taxes. Spending more money on the war means higher taxes. Just because you finance the war on credit cards/debt to China does not mean that we won’t have to pay those bills at somepoint.
In fact it means that we would have to pay the war debt with interest.
Debt plus interest is > greater than debt alone.
Plus we should tell the Neocons that China will probably want something in return for all buying all this debt like Taiwan.
Taiwan would be a bank fee for loaning us the money China of course will still want the money, plus all the nice weapons we sold Taiwan over the years.
the dome over the federal legislature in germany is glass – to symbolize the transparency in government that was needed after the nazi regime was defeated – to help prevent atrocities being hidden by the government and committed by the government.
we need our own glass dome.
I get good services from the VA for my medical… of course most Docs are from Stanford and the interns are studying there!!
Props to Bruuuuuuuce.
I saw him at the L.A. Coliseum in 1986. 90,000 fans begging for more after four freakin’ hours. “I can’t. I cant’t…do no more…”
Y’all FrontPagers need to regularly check out the snarktacular snarkitude available at the TBogg FDL page.
Y’all have been absolutely fantastic and I hope to see much more of you over in Teh Bogg.
Get it? Teh…Bogg…?!? Hilarity of this type is teh regularity at teh satellite.
Good night and FSM bless!
The press is fluffing him no doubt about that but is the fluff convincing the Corporations the GOP’s regular fluffers to join in?
hey p4/4… i heard his recent concert in san jose was so/so according to one friend who went.
Nahant, here’s my post on it…
g’nite comsympinko… btw, love your name
I just bought 40lbs of Jasmine rice, 20lbs of flour and 10lbs of masa harina tonight. Food prices are rising daily here in Oregon.
Heya.
I love his dedication and stamina. I feel deeply inadequate after one of his concerts. The ability to connect on an individual level with a huge crowd is a gift that shouldn;t be ignored. Maybe I’m talking about somebody else too.
Didn’t know that.. tres cool.
Didn’t the founders of Time Magazine get all bent out of shape over who lost China to the Commies? Bush is now going to hand Taiwan over but Time does not seem to care anymore?
What ever happened to stopping the commies.
Where have all the neocons gone? When will they ever learn? When will they ever learn?
costco and sam’s club announced today they are going to ration rice. of course, they didn’t’ use the word ration but that is what it is – limiting how much that can be bought per week per household.
I love jasmine rice…!
Same in Seattle I need to stock up on Pinto beans and rice.
holy crap, suzanne i had no idea this video was out there. this is the first concert i got to work backstage at. during this song i’m sitting twenty feet away all by myself in the production trailer, until robin williams wandered in. his dressing room was next door and he came in to watch the song on the monitor. half way through, robin being robin, he started doing bruce doing elmer fudd singing “fi-wuh”.
one of the best nights of my life.
thanks.
Dang, Robin Williams is my Idol, ever since I saw him in The World According To Garp…!
my pleasure, rosalind. i happened to stumble upon it and was delighted that i could front page it.
still gotta find the poifect dog song and lake song.
There’s no way in hell that McCain has a serious money problem. He has the fattest cats in this country and a few others backing him. All talk about his money problems is a red herring. The money will gush when the time comes.
Is this nationwide or is this only West Coast? When did food rationing in the worlds richest country not become a story?
Presumably we could outbid poorer countries for limited food so higher prices which we have might be expected but food rationing here means that neither Love or Money is getting us Rice?
I may have to marry you.
Then why isn’t it gushing now third place behind two Democrats has that ever happened to the GOP?
They’ve started doing it here in the Isles, but, we usually follow the west coast’s lead, or if the longshoremen strike… Last time they struck, TP was worth it’s weight in gold…! ;-0
here’s the NYTimes story
Like I said I missed it and I had check your Main and Central often…. the real problem is the lack of enough funds to the job with the huge influx of new Vets needing care. The former Chaplin at PAVAH is a family friend and when was still there he was always telling me about the lack of funds and because of that they were having to deny the older Vets who hadn’t signed up yet and charging those who were for their services if they made over 26 thousand a year… Dems wanted to add more funds but the rethuglians kept blocking that… Bastards… Like I said they don’t want their money paying for any thing they can’t get a piece of the action….
this was the first bridge benefit concert at shoreline amphitheatre, put on by neil and pegi young. david crosby had just gotten out of jail and it was the first time csny had performed together in a very long time.
the vibe backstage was just pure joy.
Me too, my father lives in Thailand and all he wants is real cornmeal for cornbread, the Thais don’t even know what cornmeal is.
Don’t think for one minute that they are doing it to promote veteran healthcare…I’ll lay even odds that they are looking for current addresses of the able-bodied to be “reinstated”. Many of those with 2×6 and 4×4 contracts may still have obligated service…but not for much longer.
When I left service a few years ago I made sure to go *poof*, but when I got out my obligation was long expired, too.
ok, now i’m totally jealous. i’ve never been to a bridge concert.
much less backstage
*deep sigh*
Just the tune for you
Yeah, I agree, what is often forgotten is the back door draft of the stop-loss and recalling individuals back… Not many realize that when they sign that first contract, whether it’s 2 yrs or 4 they’re still on tap for 8 as you point out…! 8-(
ya gotta go. always the best show of the year. but loooong. and cold. i don’t know how the kids make it through.
(for the uninitiated, the concert is an annual benefit for the bridge school, a school for severely handicapped kids, and the kids get to sit on stage throughout the show in their wheelchairs).
A Bruce song he co-wrote with Patti Smith. Her version.
*g*
The only corn I saw when I was in Korea and Japan was the baby corn in some stir fry dishes…!
a diff patti in bruce’s life
And his version.
And I love redheads.
I have another candidate for the “Fire” category. Our new,sweet Elsinora..the young woman who nailed not only John Ashcroft during his lecture at a liberal arts college but has the most incredibly sincere and intelligent follow-up on her blog site.[and no,sadly, no link because I don’t know how, but I hope to after my session with the Mac guys next week].
FIRE….
she got quoted in froomkin! well deserved
to link, copy the url of the blog, then paste it here in the comments box along with anything else you wanna say.
that’s the easiest way to do it.
when i was younger, i was a redhead. it was from all that time spent outdoors when i was working the streets. now i’m just mouse brown and gray
i gotta admit, there was something about a redhead in uniform that attracted the ‘arrest me’ ’search me officer’ type.
I like most of Bruce’s work here is one from after 911
While getting my electronics training at Fort Monmouth I got to see him and the E Street band at the Stone Pony… I know I am dating myself.. but it he was great then long before he became a household name
I so wish I knew what you just said!!!
*laughing* i’ve so been there
i’ll gladly help ya learn how to do it – are you mac or pc?
I suspect that it is gushing, and that propaganda mills all over the country are putting together anti-Obama adds, and armies of oppo-researchers have taken to the streets digging up all the dirt they can find, and journalists are being paid for pitching the right stories, and moderators are being paid to ask the right debate questions.
McCain himself needs enough money to buy tickets and lodging for himself, his wife, the staff, and to keep his office open. He’ll always have what he needs. Fat cats look after themselves.
Here is the link to her story over at KOS Elsinora
This is so much an officer discretion issue, i will defer to you.
But, oh yeah.
The url is the one that has the http://…. Copy it, control c, then paste it here, control v!
oh, man, i can’t believe i’m about to tell this story.
ok, so bruce springsteen had just come off his “born in the u.s.a” tour and had officially reached the status of “superstar”. the fact neil got him to perform at the show was huge. bruce’s parents lived on the peninsula, so he flew in early and arranged to do his soundcheck the night before.
all the staff were given stern warnings that the soundheck was closed, and not a soul was allowed backstage or anywhere in the seating area until bruce had come and gone.
sooo, we’re upstairs madly stuffing ticket envelopes when through the open door came…that voice. “test, test. one two. i’m driving in my car…”
my friend and i lock eyes. “uhm, we have to go the bathroom”. we sneak out the door, sneak across the dark concourse, falling onto our stomachs to avoid the head of security whizzing by in his golf course. from there we crawled on our bellies into the seating area and lay flat, basking in bruce.
then a flashlight in our face. “hey, you’re not supposed to be in here!”. bam, we were out of there and back in the office in nothing flat where we were greeted by a round of skeptical looks for our 15 minute pee break.
Elsinora sure put Asscroft in his place… the video is priceless
here is what froomkin said in today’s (thursday’s) post:
Thank You I wonder why there is not more antiwar music on the radio I heard “leaving on a Jet plane ” a few times when the war started but haven’t heard much since, is it Clearchannel or maybe I haven’t listened to the radio much.
There was video of it…?
that is so forking cool. i bet bruce wudda loved the thought of ya’ll laying there baskin
Here
Patti Smith: Smells Like Teen Spirit. Slow it down. Kill me now.
(golf
coursecart)I did read that…Talking about parsing just let him be strapped down cloth over mouth and every time he breaths he is inhaling water asswipe… I have come close to drowning once(thanks to my cousin who kept puling me under every time I reached the surface of the water.. no freaking fun he was having fun)So I have a good idea what the victum goes through… Asscroft is just another Rethuglian who needs to be tried for War Crimes!!
Mac..very new. We have to travel 50 miles to meet those-who-will-teach us.
I’m very excited.

They only started the war
Why should they go out to fight?
They leave that role to the poor
Time will tell on their power minds
Making war just for fun
Treating people just like pawns in chess
Wait till their judgement day comes, yeah!
Now in darkness, world stops turning
As the war machine keeps burning
No more war pigs of the power
Hand of God has sturck the hour
Day of judgement, God is calling
On their knees, the war pigs crawling
Begging mercy for their sins
Satan, laughing, spreads his wings
All right now!
Mahalo, Newt!
Here is another on of theirs Blowing in the Wind this one is a real old recording think Jack Benny
from ozfest

the thing starting with “http://” at the top of your browser window is the “URL”. It’s what makes a link.
Position your pointer after the last character and click and hold down the mouse button and drag to the left.
Once the whole URL is highlighted, release the mouse, pull down the “Edit” menu to “Copy” and release.
Move your pointer to the place where you want to paste it into, click your mouse inside that area, and pull down the “Edit” menu again, this time releasing on “Paste”.
It’s done.
thanks, newton. that is basically the same way for doing it with a pc – which is the way i know.
Heh, I agree! These Boyz did it right tho…! ;-)
Gee just like a PC oh thats right all this came from Mosaic in 92 aka now FireFox you know before Mac’s knew what a network was!
linky no workie ct
My kids are into new Alter-punk. They are very aware and the war,and social situations are constant in the songs. More so than any other music venue now popular.
I’m starting to really appreciate their music.
Maybe because we all travel to major protests together and I’m being forced to really listen to their music. I actually prefer a lot of “their” music to listening to the same old songs over and over.
I love the Intertoobz: More Patti – “You light up my Life“.
if i had a hammer – peter paul and mary
Ctrl c and Ctrl v work in Safari… Newt!
i’ve been spoiled by being in the local listening area for kpig – which plays ‘americana’, a mix of folk, rock, bluegrass, blues, jazz and whatever else the djs feel like playing.
Hmmm… again?
Third part independents groups do we have any way of knowing the cash they are getting and who is giving? You may be right on this one the GOP does not want to scare off moderate voters by calling Obama, Ossama
But fake independent groups can. The press goes nuts about Obama’s preacher but the “Great Whore” McCains guru gets a pass.
Our line should be McCain is responsible for every attack on Obama just like Bush was responsible for calling McCain’s adopted kid a Bastard.
How does McCain’s adopted Dark kid like Daddy’s friends making fun os dark people?
McCain will get angry say were out of line by making his family an issue.
To which we respond what George Bush said allot worse and you hugged him.
Then we open our arms and say give me a hug Karl said you liked em dark. (note to self we need an African American women to ask these questions to motivate African Americans if McCrazy looses his temper again)
a spirited choice, ct
That’s “Command” on a Mac (not control), and a newbie probably has as easier time with menus than with keyboard shortcuts.
More protest tunes from Cruel War – Peter, Paul & Mary
way too complicated I agree
D’oh! I’m enjoying Safari tho…!
hey, you! :-)
Maybe we need another thread of modern protest songs:)
You know I just can’t resist :>)
Peter Paul And Mary may be dated but boy do their songs are still fresh in this day and age what with the state of this country and greater world!!
tis a good idea, things. i’ll see what i can come up with – in the next week or two. already have sat’s toon all picked out and ready to go.
I show people new and wicked shortcuts daily, and they are shocked and pleased – I mean long-time users.
The original! I love me some Nirvana.
There may be some looks askance at the bald guy head slamming while he’s drtving, but I don’t care!
diversity is encouraged at the lake, all operating systems are welcome.
There are many and I am not saying you don’t know your Mac’s I just like picking on them but you know that:< )</p>
Peter, Paul & Mary – Washington Peace March – 1971
newton and nahant remind me of those apple/pc commercials
I’m not sure if you guys know this ,..but,when you talk computer stuff so glibbly…you make me feel small.
You probably have no idea how skilled you are. It’s pretty incredible that there are SO many skilled people doing all this research for free
” Please God, if there is a God, make me able to know computers .I too shall join the ranks of the knowing.”
Point was, they use the Mac for years and never even try’em.
Dand Newton ya think we could do a better Jobs you will like this one although he is lying about who had the fonts thing down first!! you know Xerox
i’m not trying to make ya feel small at all. i am completely self taught in my computer skills and am more than happy to help others learn. when i first started my blog, i did not know how to link – was blogging for a month before someone showed me how.
it has been my experience the pups are wanting to help out with their computer talk – not talk down to ya.
Oh yeah !!!
I think you’d be very interested with many of the youngbloods. They GET IT !!!
Breathe easy and relax. The tighter you grip it, the harder it will be.
Don’t be afraid to screw it up. You’ll learn fast.
its just a glorified typewriter – have confidence in yourself.
I agree, but, who is who…?
guilty.
Same with PC users and for that matter almost any user with all OS’s you have no idea how engineers I have had to sit down and show them the ropesand sometime read them the riot act.. you would have thought that by the time they got their degree they would actually know something!!
LOL!
aint going there dood
*laughing*
Generals gathered in their masses
Just like witches at black masses
Scene Rummy, Bushie and Darth stand over a cauldron like MacBeths three witches
Evil minds that plot destruction
Sorcerers of deaths construction
Scene Douglas Feith walks to cauldron the moving teletype at the screen bottom says stupidest man alive
In the fields the bodies burning
As the war machine keeps turning
Scene pictures form in cauldron of American and Iraqi dead
Death and hatred to mankind
Poisoning their brainwashed minds, oh lord yeah!
Scene Fox News clip with the most outrageous mean genocidal thing anyone ever said on Fox (cripes I can see a lot of argument over that there is so much to choose from)
Politicians hide themselves away
They only started the war
Scene we close with Nancy and Harry giving into Bush on war funding
Why should they go out to fight?
They leave that role to the poor
Scene Bush twind
Time will tell on their power minds
Making war just for fun
Scene Darth
Treating people just like pawns in chess
Wait till their judgement day comes, yeah!
An angel with a sword of fire standing over the White House!
Now in darkness, world stops turning
As the war machine keeps burning
No more war pigs of the power
Hand of God has sturck the hour
Day of judgement, God is calling
On their knees, the war pigs crawling
Begging mercy for their sins
Satan, laughing, spreads his wings
Satan’s face Morphs into Ossama’s then its Bush’s the teletype shows Ossama thanking Bush for not sending any troops after him in Pakistan.
All right now!
Chicken… Bwack-Bwack…! ;-)
*thanking suz from the bottom of my coal-black Mac heart*
Absolutely fucking A right We live to help others learn! I love to help it is one of the most rewarding things to do!!
create it and upload it to utube, dood
Maybe you could send Suz a few suggestions for a modern music protest thread?
spew
Steal my idea please cause thats a little beyound my ability.
Yes you will learn to learn from your mistakes… you can’t totally screw up the system unless you through it out the window nad even then it can usually be resurrected!
(having caught a glimpse of krist novoselic and his receding hairline at the first yearly kos convention, you are in good company).
if she learns how to link *not trying to pressure but create an atmosphere condusive to helping* we can all enjoy them.
i don’t know how. i could figure out how to upload video but i don’t know how to create video to upload, things.
I like the idea, you’ve given it quite some thought! 8-)
They are not dated I need to download some more stuff although to be fair without this war I might have forgotten them.
Double Spew and If I was still with XEROX I would be reproducing at a rate of 120 pages a minute!!
Encouraging, if i didn;t throw pianos out of tune when I sing. Not that that stops me…
bet your better half would have something to say about that rate
I’m sorry if it seemed that I implied I thought YOU were making me feel small. No way.
This is a new frontier for me.
I’m a sculpter/cook by profession with a sprinkling of advertising writing thrown in to pay the rent.
What you guys are doing on the internet and with widestream communication
is very new to me.
I’m a happy student. I plan on learning this venue but I’m kind of wonky at it right now.
Well everything but the most evil Fox News quote my stomache can’t handle watching Fox to much.
But maybe an FDL thread contest on the most evil thing Fox News said would help.
I have enjoyed them since they started putting their music out… My oldest sister used to party with Mary in the Village and she turned me on to them and a lot of the music of those times..
Gawd no, then I’d be forced to watch Faux Spew… My TV would never forgive me…!
then welcome to late nite – this is what we do here in the dark at the lake. we help each other out, we bounce ideas off each other, we de-stress from the crap of the day, and recharge our batteries so we can fight again tomorrow.
i can’t tell ya how much stuff i have learned here in the comments at the lake.
wonky is kinda the way we all are this time of night :)
ya’ll see this?
Yes, I could bring up some very cool new songs. Music that actually infiltrates my brain in a good way.
But not until we meet with the young gurus of our new Mac. Because I’m that computer-stupid.
That said, I’d be a good person to have your back in any other situation…….
Bob telling the story of our leaders… even more so now!!
Another protest song from the past for ya Suz!
Hilary is laughing
Bwhahaha… “Unconditionally…” But, why would he want to submit to that water boarding…?
Leaving on a jet plane
as a cook, i bet you have great recipes
Hey yeah, we ALL have great recipes. That’s what got me into cooking.
Food is the story of us……
Here’s a classic protest song
wasn’t that song the winner of the 60’s category when we did the contest?
there were so many dayam good songs that come outta those threads that week…
“Just as many conservatives view CNN as liberal-leaning, many Democrats see Fox News as a conservative enemy.”
Fair and balanced commentary courtesy of the LA Times.
Hey all! Can’t stay long. Can anybody ’splain me what the hell is going on in the Middle East at the moment? All very confusing and moving too quickly to track!
I coulda sworn Dylan took it, but, I know Springfield was up there…! ;-)
as fair and balanced as sam zell can make it
And a few that were protest songs before we realized we needed to protest. My own entry was one of those, done in the late 90s before things became so surreal. But the true protest songs were excellent, old and new.
you could be right about dylan – i know it was a finalist for sure…
I know this one was a contender!
i really thought this one wudda made the finals…
Bob
Okay, can we welcome him onto Fox News as one of our own? Can we flood Fox News with communication prior and after? Can WE help make this a mother-f#@!$ing incredible leap of journalism for the Fox News people[ assuming they are people] so that it takes the bullshit criteria away?
Can we beat media-as-the-massage?
I have a few bucks to throw in, that’s all that counts,right?
Didn’t the Dixie Chicks win the 2000 era award… In particular, this one?
it was a tight race between dixie chicks and neil’s impeach the president iirc… let me go find the winner’s threads.
60’s winner
current winner
then there was the whole phil thing
I want McCain to come here or Koz to take questions unless he is afraid of the 70%er majority who does not like the war.
If he is afraid to visit with us then why bother running since his only chance then would be a Diebold victory (when are we going to sue that company) or a military takeover.
dylan won best solo

Citizen Suzane and the Firepup Freedom Fighters:
I jest read a post over at Kos called “Rahm Speaks” which quoted the Rahm-weasle as sayin’ “
I think ES was pulling a Brooks Suit riot to get Phil some love… ;-)
Howdy Norske! Damn those days rack up…!
That day did suck…
hey norske
gotta link?
I’ve always admired your input. Being a “mostly lurker” myself. But I think you answered your own questions there. There will be no true election. We are so into the primary game that we’ve taken our eye off the ball. There IS NO REAL election using Diebold=Sequoira=electronic machines.
Checks in the mail. I love you. No I won’t come in your mouth…………..
A true optimist, eh? ;-)
i would type spew but i’m laughing too hard
so dayam glad to see that i’m not the only one who uses that line…
Seems to me communication with FOX is a no-win.. ends up as fodder or validation.
707!
ok pups, that’s it for me tonight. attaturk will be along shortly with a fresh post for your enjoyment. i enjoyed my nights off but its like being home again hanging with ya’ll tonight. thanks for hanging with me.
Aloha, Suz!
1,823 DAYZ AND THE KILLIN’ GOEZ ON AND ON AND…
Citizen Suzane and the Firepup Freedom Fighters:
I jest read a post over at Kos called “Rahm” which quoted the Rahm-weale as sayin’ “the way the loser loses will determine how the winner wins in November”. Now besides bein’ Rahm-speak and hittin’ the top a the bullshit meter, this mumbo-jumbo may be quite revealin’ as to why McClinton is prolongin’ the agony for everyone. I wonder if McClinton isn’t sendin’ signals out that she wants to deal. I wonder if she isn’t holdin’ out for a Supreme Court nomination, Attorney General or even Veep. This entire childish game she’s playin’ makes no sense unless she is stupid, a fascist tool or wants to salvage something of her ambition before she goes down for the count. I will never say she’s stupid, I do think she is beholdin’ to some big corporate donors and I know she’s ambitious so maybe Indiana and North Carolina will be the end of it if Obama does well enough and she ken broker a face-saver. She’ll pretend ta bow out gracefully in return for a visable spot in the new administration.
Waddiya think Firepups, is she anglin’ for a deal? Should Obama even consIder havin’ her anywhere close ta the levers of power?
KEEP THE FAITH AND PASS THE AMMUNITION, THERE’S PLENTY TA GO AROUND FOR EVERYONE!!
Well Tucker has the bed all turned down for me so I will bid all of you great late late night pups goonight
“Hopw the loser loses will determine whether the winner wins in November.”
Aloha, nahant!
nite nahant
bailing out, too
keep safe pups
I couldn’t see her accepting any other role than Veep, Norske, otherwise I think she’d stay in the senate…
Aloha, Newt!
Well, for me the answer is to just make sure we keep the pressure on so she can’t make any of those choices.
She’s burned her bridges. The only ones left are her used-to-be- Goldwater folks. The people who hate Democratic policies and can’t stand neo-cons. She’s a New Republican with a social message.
Basically, she can piss off!!! What do the families in Iran think after her heartwarming message to them? How can we make them feel less threatened?
Goodnight and thank you, Suzanne
Well, it’s getting late here in the Isles! I shall bid a fond adieu! Aloha Oe!!!
