Hi Eli,
I never thought of it quite like that, Xerox powers. Jesus was The Man.

Eli…that photo. Have mercy.

OK, I’ll bite: Who’s kissing who in that picture?

Bob in HI

No biting!

I saw that when it happened and she grabbed Bush and would not let go. It was really something to see. What an idiot she is.

Now, now. Don’t you remember *your* first crush?

Okay, as a Christian, I find her comment completely bizarre.

I’m not sure what else to say. It’s just mind-boggling.

Shaking my head,
Heather

Thanks Eli.

So …. we Jews who don’t believe anyone “saved the planet” 2000 yrs ago — we’re allowed to still work for solutions to global warming, yes?

Next time Bush has a long soulful look into Putin’s eyes, he’ll forget all about that woman, or should I say women.

I am admittedly not a Christian, but it certainly did not match up with my understanding of what “saved” means in a Jesus-y context.

Bachmann, Turn-her, (she’s) Overdone.

Whenever you think she can’t get more crazy, Michelle proves “You Ain’t Seen Nothin Yet.”
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=7miRCLeFSJo

Well, somebody’s gotta do it. Get busy and save us all. :)

Bachmann during the SOTU…! ;-)

Bizarre it is, and have no doubt that everyone who calls him/herself a Christian will be tarred with the same brush on most liberal sites. Which sucks.

Maybe the clean air will only enter Christian lungs.

Aloha, Eli, another masterpiece!

Hey, at least you don’t have Lieberman…

Aloha and thanks, CTut!

Big Tobacco won’t like THAT.

Nope, we have to content ourselves with Saxby Chambliss and Gov. Perdue. Remember when he decided the way to end the drought was to pray for rain? Sigh….

I’m sure Jesus in His infinite wisdom would allow an opt-out for smokers.

and 95% of the Neocons.

So Michele *isn’t* the only one.

WWJS – What would Jesus smoke?

Bachmann? Turn her over. Drive.

Didn’t ya get a trace amount for their ‘efforts’…? ;-)

breaking news: Jesus signs the Kyoto Agreement.

Oh, not by a long shot! As a matter of fact, what she said would be mostly ignored down here, as in “oh, there’s another one…”

Well, he’s supposed to talk to W. Have him talk louder…

Camels… after they’ve passed through the eye of a needle.

I think sandals leave a pretty small carbon footprint.

No spew warning? [stomps off to get something to wipe off monitor]

quick joke, right on point;

when the floods were raising the water level in new orleans, as the water was rising and the congregation told the parishiner it was time to go, he said, “have no fear, the lord will protect me”

all then as the levels rose and the boats came to take the parishiner away, he said, “no, have no fear, the lord will protect me

and as the levels rose, there he was on the roof, and the helicopters came, yet he refused, again with the same statement

and this parishiner perished

at the pearly gates, as he was welcomed, he asked the good lord why the lord didn’t save him, and of course the response;

“what are you talking about?, first I sent your congregation, then I sent the boars, finally I sent the helicopters, YOU REFUSED MY HELP!

I ALMOST DIDN’T EVEN LET YOU IN HERE FOR BEING SUCH A BAFOON AND REFUSING MY WARNINGS”

now believe it or not, that is a true story, I swear

I’ve heard they are hard to keep lit.

Loaves & Fishes Benson & Hedges?

the point of course is that the progressives have the correct response to this moron;

“the lord IS saving us, he is giving us every warning we possible and every tool at our disposal, I don’t know about you but I am not going to refuse the lords warnings”

or something of that nature

legalize hump!

One of my all-time favorite jokes, although my punchline is, “LADY, I SENT THREE BOATS!”

he just wanted to rub Putie’s belly

I tried to rewrite it so the lord cast him out for not heeding the warnings

couldn’t do it in the short time I had in my rush to post

Thank doG Jeezus invented chocolate…
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ZVyk5dAU_wU

I think it’s already legal in most places, although if you’re a Democrat and smoke it with somebody besides your spouse, the MSM will talk about it endlessly.

Exactly. It’s never ceased to amaze me that morons of her ilk refuse to realize that God/Creator/Jesus/[whatever name or prime cause you prefer] gave us MINDS and INTELLIGENCE and CURIOSITY. Apparently we’re not supposed to use them… Weird.

ah, I forgot to referance which post I was resonding to at my 40, it was your’s eli at 38

I think I read that somewhere, might have been a restroom in Minnesota. Oh well, you’re only human.

Oh, lordy… I’m slower than some of the other kids… The penny just dropped on that one. Brilliant!

Ahhh, Bush. This is before he lusted after the swimmer.

Yep, There it happened 2000 years ago. What ever “it” is. But long before, in the earliest days of the Hebrew Bible, what were we taught: God created man and woman in God’s own image and they shall be stewards over the earth. A reading that means man and woman should be caring for the earth that we have been given. Yep, I think that means Speaker Nancy and all the rest of us mortals to look after the gifts of this world. To not destroy and misuse and abuse. I am pretty sure that God would not leave Nancy out of the plans and challenges for the rest of us.

And surely Michele would want us to remember that Jesus did ask us to feed the poor and look after the widows and the children and a few other things that are somehow overlooked.

You’re supposed to be a fool for the Lord. I learned that in my last (as in, LAST) church.

We all know that someone did that over 2,000 years ago, they saved the planet — we didn’t need Nancy Pelosi to do that.”

Michelle was in on that?

And she’s settling for being a U.S. Congress-crazy-person?

hey, if I’d known, I woulda thanked her….

It’s because she has never used hers. It’s all rusty and stuff.

Sorry, I thought YOU wanted to rub Putie’s belly (try it, you’ll like it). Pretty much goes without saying that Dubya does.

The Environment Is Not A Truck:

is it a series of tubes?

I prefer the plastic Jesus

To be a fool for the Lord is a good thing. To be a gibbering moron for the Lord is a bad thing. She’s in the latter category.

Bush looked quite surprised … usually, they’re kissing his *ss …

Digg It!

Hey I worked for Xerox for 24 years… We did have a saying we used “Xerox is our name Reproduction is our Game” Just had to tell ya all that one as we used that all the time:>)

((( Eli )))

Evenin’ all !

Actually, I think it’s probably still in the original shrink wrap. (The person who invented that stuff rots in hell, I hope, condemned to open shrink wrapped items for all eternity — with no teeth, no fingernails, and no tools of any sort.)

Well, Michele’s halfway there.

Dugg your Digg Ratfood!

I don’t mind shrink wrap, but those hard plastic clamshells that are hard to open even with scissors… Argh.

and seriously, packaging engineers could make them easy enough for a human to open, but nOooo . . .

Well, there is a great future in plastics after all…
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v…..&NR=1

I stick all of that stuff into the same category. If it’s entombed in plastic, the inventor spends eternity in hell with no tools…

I know, it was how they used it that irked me. They put down learning, I thought.

Yeah but those plastic clams are mighty tasty.

I did manage to open one with nothing more than my keys once, but I was kinda desperate…

Heh, Dood! Did the propane blast affect ya?

actually I see that bonkers got there first, at #11.

My 69 was for ya, petro!

No tools in Hell? Judy Miller will be relieved to hear that.

ahh, the classic

did you need stitches afterwards, or just Hydrogen Peroxide?

the drooling idjits have found their salivation.

Nope, happened about a half hour away, although the fire plume could be seen as far away as Niagara.

At first, I thought Harper had had one too many Big Macs … *g*

They put c*ndoms in plastic clam shells nowadays ? *g*

No great feat, they were standing on their heads at the time.

I did manage to open one with nothing more than my keys once, but I was kinda desperate…

I wasn’t paying attention. when did the conversation turn to condoms?

Ouch!

guess I owe Petro a coke.

I think I got by with just a few minor scrapes. Sheer brute force and determination.

See me @ 77, you owe me a Dr. Pepper … *g*

Actually, it might have been a memory card for my camera. I take a *lot* of pictures…

Thank goodness for ya! Spooky! Have they determined what caused it yet?

you lucky you have the hulky muscles to pull it off open

Nope, ongoing investigation and half those people are prolly on vacation …

: )

I think it was more like that kind of temporary insanity that lets mothers pick up cars to save their kids…

Heh. Desperation ain’t pretty, is it?!

lmao!

srsly, how hard would it be to put a zip strip on those cursed things?

I’d like to thank Summer for briefly stopping by this year …. $*&^@% weather … 10c/50F every night this week … time to put away the Chimay and bring out the Grand Marnier … anyone fancy a drink ?

“We all know that someone did that over 2,000 years ago, they saved the planet — we didn’t need Nancy Pelosi to do that.”

now we know the truth, she read the ‘cliff notes’ bible.

heywood, my hero, even though he does the bob and tom freak show…that’s ok, TOAST!
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Gq01UYiMyHg

I have seen a few (okay, one), where the two halves weren’t actually sealed together, and could be easily pried apart. More like that, please.

mussels, clamshells…we’re halfway to a good cioppino.

I’d love one, and I’m here to thank you for sending some of that cool this way. It didn’t reach 90° today, for the first time in forever.

Good evening. I’ll drink to that.

It’s a safe bet people who make statements like that use their bible as a coaster.

I use one of these … cutting along the inside edge …

hey, we can put a man on the moon . . .

Does this go along with Obama being ‘the one’. So, who’s the anti-christ, Nancy or Barack?

Hiya eCahn, I was going to make Chocolate Martinis but it’s been a while since I’ve had Grand Marnier …

I’m sucking on the wine that I opened for dinner.

There are actually cutting tools specifically designed to open those cursed things. I am very very tempted.

I see where you’re going with this – those clamshells are probably meteor-proof, right?

is that like a zuppa di pesce?

No we can’t. Back in the late ’60s and early ’70s they could but that civilization was much more advanced than our own.

You should maybe give it time to thaw. Then you can build neat stuff with the leftover sticks.

You’re really Squeeze-ing everything ya can outta that joke, huh?
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=jaEcUMrsBhU

ROFL … I have a chilled Pinot Grigio which I refuse to open until it goes above 22/80 … we’ve had 5X more rain than Noah’s Old Digs Vancouver

What I think happened is that Rove sent that out as a talking point and now he’s laughing thinking that someone was stupid enough to actually use it.

It was on the same memo is the Cuba to China oil pipeline.

only the name has been changed to protect the Innocenti

When I click Show Text, nothing happens. Makes following the threads imposible. Got any suggestions??
WayneC

there goes my tendon

Hey, bet they are, but can they stand up to an asteroid strike?

LOL

where i come from, he’s called the ‘touchdown jesus’

http://www.jeeeb.us/blog/

the main page has an article about it.

I *think* it might still work in IE, but it’s definitely broken in Firefox.

or the bouillabaisse

As long as the asteroids aren’t too sharp.

I am so sorry no one loved my stewardship of the earth lesson. I seriously think Nancy should be paying attention. And Michele definitely didn’t get the memo that care for the earth started way before Jesus. Someone should tell her.

Red wine. Had pork chops. Perfect weather here today. Low 70s, low humidity, scudding clouds. Plenty of rain over the last two days and I think there’s a Noreaster in the forecaste.

http://www.dumpbachmann.blogspot.com to find out just how crazy Michele Bachmann really is. I live in her district!

The trouble with the French is that they have no word for “bouillabaisse.”

http://www.jeeeb.us/jeeebypage…..otmilk.htm

click through these, seriously, …

this is hilarious—i called my friends to find which site it was.

best friend says she’s goin’ to hell for it.

I think of it as being akin to housesitting for God and totally trashing the place. Dead pets, cigarette burns in the carpet, garbage and cigarette smoke everywhere…

she is a crazy person, you have my condolences.

Well, god should have known better than to leave the earth in control of humans. Ooops. Aren’t humans god’s chosen?

and most of that in slightly over 100 years

waynec, the only way I know to follow along is to click on the person’s name where it says “In response to So-and-So”. Then you will be able to see what they said. But the show text hasn’t worked for me for a long time.

well how sharp can they be, they are spaced out all the time.

‘entrepreneur‘ had too many syllables anyway.

When the Oxford Dictionary of Quotations published its list of the top 101 sayings of 2002, it included a remark that George W. Bush was supposed to have made to Tony Blair: “The problem with the French is that they have no word for ‘entrepreneur.’”

Yeah, humans are the crowning creation. He/She/It is perfect in every way but somewhat of an underachiever.

Show text works fine for me. PC, Explorer.

the gaul!

I wonder how many words they have for Bush?

lol!

Oddly, when translated to English, they *all* have four letters…

All of them have 4 letters. Bush is a 4 letter word.

I owe you.

forgot to add–the hustler store is a few exits down from the ‘it’s this big’ jesus………my link at 126 has a picture of him showing us..

best friend and i are in there right now, she’s getting different pics than me, omg, i’m laughing so hard i can’t breathe.

Hey Eli.
Ya know, I’ve ALWAYS said, if those people are the ones going to Heaven, I very much look forward to Hell.
Loons & kooks. or better put, religious extremists.
I know them well, was raised by a bunch of them.
Needless to say, we’re not in touch…..

even “coke’ has four letters

I am quite sure that W did not say that. He cannot put that many syllables together.

One of my good friends in high school requested his quote on his senior pic: Better to rule in hell than to serve in heaven. HS admin let it get printed. Ruling or not, all my good friends are going to be down below, so I wouldn’t want to go in the other direction.

I wouldn’t swear that was exactly what the Hebrew writers had in mind. But if you’re right, we have done a great job.

I’m certain it rhymed with “manure.”

Yeah, I look forward to the Rapture.

Of course, maybe it’s already happened…

Your school must have been quite the Inferno.

OT: Blue America candidate Jim Himes won his primary and will face the odious Chris Shays in twelve weeks. Shays is the last GOP ‘critter in New England, and Jim Himes is gonna take him down.

SoCal bank alert: Vineyard National on the edge. Withdrawal time folks, beat the crowds.

In 1996, when Greenspan was threatening to tighten monetary policy, I wrote a report titled: Grow Is Not a 4-Letter Word (meaning inflation worries were baseless). One client told me he was reading the report at home over the weekend. His 7 year old daughter said: Daddy, the person who wrote that doesn’t know anything. Grow is so a 4-letter word.

We tried, but were pretty sophomoric, even in senior year.

I told him I’d come up from NYC to volunteer toward the end. Anyone want to join us?

well, beings that the weather is smack-on IDEAL, I’m setting out with the dog and Kitteh A for our walkabout. Skies are clear, the moon is filling up and there’s just the most delicate of breezes. Pond frogs are a-croaking and I can hear the katydids now. G’nite everyone. I’ll be carrying around this smile you gave me for a while mile -or two.

the kids were so durn literal in those days…

Not to worry, one of you could still grow up to be presiDante.

drop-kick me, jeeebus, through the *gulp* host of life.

I think you might be stretching this Alighieri a little too far for the sake of comedy.

Well, Mark Twain said you went to heaven for climate and hell for company…

Evening, I’d like a bit of that grand marnier please – accompanied by some show text.

Too much to sulfur in silence?

We actually read books containing words with more than 4 letters.

Love Mark Twain. Hadn’t heard that one. Have to remember it.

They just don’t write ‘em like they used to.

Have a great walk and good night.

If he got that far, he may have just said S***; or, alittle French, if he knows it.

Let me circle back to that one.

some French author (I’m trying to recall who) wrote an entire story without using the letter ‘e’.

Nice picture Eli.

What’s preznit thinking when he closes his eyes for those smooches. He always does.

I watched an interview with Karl Rove on Sunday and heard him say “nook-u-ler,” which didn’t surprise me but then I saw an interview with Bill Richardson and I’ll be darned if he didn’t pronounce it that way too.

Thinking? W?

I’m sure he’s pretending it’s someone else, but I’m kind of afraid to know who…

New DN

Does that amazing piece of literary trivia come from a superior education or did you just pick it up from hanging out on the internet? E is the most common letter in English, and I’d guess it’s right up there in French, so that author must have been a real nutcase. Or perhaps an existentialist who wanted to make a point about the nonexistence of E.

You know what they say, if you cantica the heat, get out of the kitchen.

Wait, was that a Dis?

I think we have all caught his garbage for some reason. I guess we’ve been dumbed down. Very odd stuff, I think.

Yep, that’s the version I know, too.

Bob in HI

wayne at 114–i just follow as i can, then scroll back when i lost the ’thread’….and my ’reply’ quit working, i was so thrilled when i went to firefox 2.0 and it worked….

and i hope you guys look at the link on 126—one of them is the touchdown jesus as keith moon on drums—”just talkin’ bout re-generation”

when i linked, it started with ’goat milk?” but best frined’s link started earlier. main page jeeb.us.com it’s the link under the jeebus pic. tiny hard to see–under the warning…..click on most popular reincarnations

this person is seriously ’twisted’ .rofl 707!

Maybe he was just a bad speller.

(Hi eCAHN)

more the latter (although madame punaise teaches advanced French grammar and literature, so that’s where I heard of it). it had something to do with an intelligensia “club” who delighted in writing with self-imposed structural constraints.

Toushay.

Well said.

Bob in HI

I think this is the one I had heard about…

http://www.spinelessbooks.com/gadsby

it blows my mind in either language.

Just the sort of comment I would expect from a Plutocrat.

Heh. Good one. But I can’t resist a slight attempt to improve:

“the drooling idjits have found their salivation.”

There. Fixed.

Bob in HI

Don’t Hades the player, Hades the game.

Styx, meet Stones
(let’s make no bones)
but names will never hurt you.

thanks – good call.

I think I should fold before my wee rat brain combusts. Thanks, Eli.

re all of them saying nu-clu-lar; it’s a cult of thumbing their noses at the educated.

Proper pronunciation is elitist.

Yeah, but Bill Richardson was U.S. Secretary of Energy. Hopefully I just has some Turdblossom residue in my ears and heard him wrong.

with a liberal bias

I don’t mind shrink wrap, but those hard plastic clamshells that are hard to open even with scissors… Argh.

I’m late to the party, but here is the answer to your prayers!

David’s upstairs…

oh yeah!
it’s already a rockin party down there.
Many are just WAITIN’ for us to arrive and liven things up!
