Woo-hoo! A zed hat trick for the evening!
Suzanne! Good one!
did someone mention sailors and language?
g’evening pups
ola suz
Obama’s ad folks should have a field day, using McCain’s quotes about a ‘respectful campaign’ on the issues.
He’ll prove him a liar with a few clips of McCain’s outright lying.
McCain, no judgement, no honor.
-G
a funnier video (Palin v. Fargo)
funnier than popeye?
Fuck….. McCain is at a Sedona resort “practicing” for the debate on Tuesday…..
youbetcha
Cubbies are down to their last out to score two runs to continue on…! Dodger Blue is ecstatic…!
Ah Oh….. Sheriff Joe has lost his National Healthcare certification for the County Jail…… can’t find a link but it was on the local news….. it opens the county for additional law suits…..
Hey late late nite Pups Digg is now open!
And the Cubbies have to look forward to next season… Again…!
thanks nahant :)
Will they actually fire his sorry ass…?

From Raw Story:
It is a cluster fuck with the rethuglians in Alaska!
Hey, Suze is doin’ it!!!
saw some nitwit on CNN talking about how palin prepared for the debate at McCain’s “cabin.” It’s a bit bigger than a cabin, yes? Cindy doesn’t seem the cabin type.
woohoo!!!
must be practicing his scowl and his segways into bogus character attacks
Suze… I just noticed… You put up animation alot. You an animator?
and holding up the pen he had up his ass when he was a POW.
doing what? is my forking monitor two way again? those sumbits better not have parked their white van outside.
i hear folks cheering next door
nope, retired from working the streets – sat nites is always cartoons dood – you just now noticing? (laughing)
The sheriff is an elected position and he has so many people bamboozled…. the latest commercial against Dan Saban who is running against the sheriff accuses Saban of all sorts of sexual perversions………. AND they got this from a 37 yr old police report where Saban was molested by his step mother………
Old Joe has a full time paid media person who gets paid a 6 figure income funded by the tax payers……
oh yeah, the one he will use to veto every piece of pork that crosses his desk
oh yea baby… here comes the rain during a rain squall while looking across the cove to the lights flickering
perfect music christine e – thank you
Wow. That Popeye cartoon must have been written by Republicans. It wasn’t funny at all, it was downright cruel and stupid. Kind of like “An American Carol.”
Olive Oyl thought it was amusing when Bluto poured gasoline on Popeye’s fire, but threw a hissy-fit at being exposed to an ‘exploding hot dog.’ And the only way Popeye got his revenge was by the ridiculous expedient of being able to inhale to blow up a floating toy while also swimming underwater.
Somehow a single lame trick played on Bluto was supposed to cap a dozen violent acts against Popeye, to which Olive Oyl was party. And his reward was… Olive Oyl?
No wonder so many Republicans are twisted if they watched a lot of these kinds of shows as kids…
katymine, I’m assuming that if anything resembling a just Justice Department was to have a look at Joe, they would find numerous civil rights violations, no?
Honey you better be careful on how you mean “working the streets”…….
In Elko NV they have a whole quarter in town for those working the streets… :)
Teacher has strange idea of what change stands for.
yeap – the icky and squeaky show of the 50’s.. this one is from 54 – the same year i was born
this was among the lesser violent popeyes out there. and it was not as politically incorrect as others of its era.
must be why i turned out to be a republican
McCain is almost sure to reuse some of his talking points from last time, almost verbatim. Obama should have a prepared smackdown for each and every one of them. But he won’t. (He’ll probably win anyway, but why take a chance.)
well, lets just say my presence wudda been announced by those working in elko (laughing) – just a question of verbiage: 5-0 vs po-po
Heh, start with the pink undies…! There’s gotta be an infraction there! ;-)
*falls over laughing her ass off at the SNL Biden and Palin Debate skit*
oh my gods. WIN!!!! o/
Somebody mentioned earlier that they’re having a hard time distinguishing Palin from Fey…
me too
it’s eerie
Ah yes, we’ll be watching God’s vicars on earth spewing every sort of lie and flith these next few weeks.
A pack of fucking vile frauds.
McCain is really dangerously going to ramp up the hate filled rhetoric against Obama.
Reckless and shameless, McSame and Failin.
-G
Pretty &*^* )(%&^$ ^%$)^ ^&$%^ tame if ya ask me.
There’s a nice headline in this:
Breaking-Arizona Sheriff indicted by Federal Grand Jury for numerous and egregious civil rights violations.
Sounds like there’s a lot more there than the underwear. This schmuck needs to go.
didn’t some paper print a photo of last week’s snl skit and identify the persons as sp and katie? i’m not remembering where i read that…
If ya only had audio it’d be hard to tell the difference. Tina’s done her homework.
Ya in a just world….. it was one of those ecumenical organizations who has been investigating the abuses, inmates being denied their insulin, not getting their seizure meds, people have died….. one guy is on a ventilator for life…. Maricopa county has gone through a new Risk Manager every year for oh 6-7 years……. dealing with all the legal fallout….
Lawsuit targets Maricopa County jail system
Judge to rule on inmate case
you betcha!
*wink*
I wouldn’t ordinarily make this into a commercial, but 30 Rock is the funniest thing on TV by a huge margin, and she IS that show.
Bukkake shoot robbed.
Can’t argue that! But, I still think there oughta be a law against forcing guys to wear pink undies…! ;-)
oh yea baby… here comes the rain during a rain squall while looking across the cove to the lights flickering
Token doing any better with the weather?
((( Suz )))
Nicely done CT !
i’m gonna have to start watching that – i always switched over after my name is earl and watched other stations the rest of the nite.
better than earl?
Airport security about to get even more invasive.
fork – does it qualify as a mamogram too?
fuckers
Not me … Tina Fey is really, really smart and Sarah Appalin’ is not … *g*
The premise of the show is a comedy-variety show in production, and it’s prime feature is lampooning NBC and General Electric and those companies executives (the real ones) clear out of their socks. I have no idea how they get away with it, but it is almost uncomfortably funny at times.
Woo-hoo, Hawaii beat #22 Fresno State in Fresno, 32-29 in OT!!! 8-)
Obama brand heroin.
that’s why i didn’t watch it – i used to watch that other tv show about the making of a snl type show and never watched that.
kinda like chicago hope and er. only started watching er after chicago hope was cancelled.
Whole goddamned country’s gonna be sayin’ “you betcha,” if they already aren’t. At least it’ll be better than hearin’ “no problem” instead of “you’re welcome.”
wonder how much the r’s paid for that brand naming right
Take da train.
Right. Studio 60.
Fey is the head-writer of 30 Rock, playing the head-writer of the show in the series.
never noticed that about sat nites. i like cartoons. my younger ones have seen some of the old cartoons, they think they’re weird but they laugh.
OMG I should of gone to the bathroom before SNL started……
unfortunately, i knew a cop who said that decades before she started – to me, it will always be a rosetti and not a palin.
he says it better than she does anyway in a press hard 4 copies kinda way (wicked evil laugh)
dumbass via Huffpo
wow. Fresno kicked Rutgers ass and I’d have liked to think they were dynamite. Time to admit it. Rutgers shits.
Weird? Weird? That was great animation, not that crap they put out now. I like my bunnies to look like bunnies, not some Picasso character.
Ha. When I was little we’d visit relatives in Elko quite a bit. I have vivid memories riding Big Wheels around the neighborhood with my cousins and noticing the tall neons signs scattered around us.
Wasn’t until I went back as an adult that I realized we were riding around whorehouses. Interesting how my relatives didn’t think or say anything of it. Just part of the community.
Like Amsterdam, seems to work just fine if it’s legalized and regulated.
there she goes – using her weakness to attack others in a reverse rove
she’s the one who turned her back on women in need (spitting)
taking deep calming breath slowly in and blowing slowly out
grrrr
I gotcha.
“So, President Palin, how DID you come up with the failed plan to solve the Russian crisis?”
“Oh, the answer was right there on my Frappucino™!”
i try explaining that to the kids. they just don’t get it.
Heh, Rutgers lost again today, but, Hawaii went in as 21 point underdogs and pulled out the improbable victory! ;-)
Back a kazillion years ago I worked at Elko General Hospital….. I was the “other” RN on the evening shift……. we took care of the “girls” and even Tony who ran one of the houses……
That section of town had low crime and the public health laws took care of both the working girls and their customers……
i just shake my head every time she opens her mouth. doesn’t seem fair that so much dumb shit comes out of one person’s mouth
she can’t rely on that. she’s not a woman. she’s a girl. i know, that’s insulting and i don’t call women girls. but at the debate she acted like a high school girl in a student council debate; or a girl at a beauty pageant ignoring a judge’s question to give a preplanned answer. she didn’t act like an adult. putz.
*headdesk*
Had to look up what that meant. Freakin disgusting.
rutgers lost again today? 0-4. people in NJ enjoyed the year they were rated pretty high and last year was OK, but they are pissed now.
sarah six-pack. thanks, but no thanks
i say no problem instead of you’re welcome. they don’t do that in FL? i still have a bit to learn. what do i know? i still call those things license plates instead of tags.
It’s hilarious folks are seriously suggesting she’s building toward being the R candidate in 2012.
boa noite pups
gotta get up real early in the morning
i wish you all peaceful rest
They’re 1-4, they lost to West Virginia today, 24-17, not a bad showing…!
Aloha, Wobbs!
Well, hopefully “good” Alaskans are making sure she gets run out of office, and doesn’t show up as a Senator or Rep down the road. She’s awfully young still…
boa noite wobbly – say hi to wee bits for me please
nite wobbly
well she has the dumbass consituency locked down. she’s making a play for clueless
Do you really think she will be running for anything ever again?? She will be
Impeached by the state of Alaska for misuses of her powers in the firing of the Safety commissioner and the whole “Trooper Gate” debacle. She is also facing scrutiny for using private email accounts to do State business in direct conflict of Alaska state law…
lol she is asleep inside my sweatshirt. i gave her a scratch behind the ear for you
I hear it all the time but I’m an old southern boy. I still use that old fashioned shit like “please,” “thank you,” and “you’re welcome.” Hold doors open for other people, say “bless yer little pea pickin’ heart” when great granma makes a left turn from the lane to the right, and right in front, of me. *g*
Nite Wobbs. Give Weebits a snuggle for me.
This shockingly funny and depressing confirmation via driftglass.
Voter suppression seems somehow proper in certain situations.
Always surprised those laws don’t get changed in NV with all the Repubs there. They hate the entire concept of taxes, and to think their tax dollars are going to support prostitution. I suppose a lot of the Repub men in NV frequent those places though, so it’s all good for the hypocrites.
Franken’s leading Coleman! They released this shocker of a result today showing that Franken had moved ahead of Norm Coleman by almost seven points…a double digit turnaround from a month ago!
http://www.startribune.com/pol…..iUs”>Franken Leading In Minnesota
But even better – there’s gonna be a poll out tomorrow (or Monday) in Minnesota that is going to be a stunner for McCain-Palin. The Minneapolis Star-Tribune always has asked questions on their surveys about the Senate…and Presidential race…on the same poll. In the past year their results have followed closely the more reliable polls in the state. In addition they have a very large sample size, far more than SUSA and Rasmussen.
The MST do a “tell” about the Obama-McCain race (roughly tied in the last poll) in the analysis section. They say that Franken has benefitted from “riding on the coattails” of Obama, indicating that Obama leads by EVEN MORE than Franken!
And check out those Democratic “preference” figures!!! Whoo Hoo! Democrats 42% vs. Republicans down about 25%. OUCH!
‘ere!
Interesting how that “lady” was for Hillary.
Well, lessee now. Rethugs say sex only after marriage and only for procreational purposes. Sooooo, mama has however many chillens and doesn’t want any more, that means papa ain’t gettin’ any. Whatever control freak tendencies he may have had disappeared after Number One son/daughter was born. So now he gets to live out his “Debby Does Dallas” fantasies.
I came back because I just had to share this with you all via Daily kos
Here is photographic proof of Obama’s ties to those radical Ayers type folks
Please, let’s have ALL the dumb shit come out of just her mouth. So much easier to keep track of and…er, what’s that gosh darn word…mock? Yeah, mock.
snuggling as we speak *g*
Not particularly heartened by the phrase “average Southern” in the originating site’s explanation.
Nothing average or Southern about this.
i missed the win. Howard or somebody like that?
Heh, Morgan St.! 38-0! ;-)
ha!
yeah but as an american living with a furriner, it is plenty embarassing. Everyday I hear, “what the bloddy hell is wrong with you yanks?” or I get the shaking of the head
Looks like Franken is up 9% in that poll. Saw some analysis of this earlier today (538 maybe?), and they said SurveyUSA, who has Coleman up 10% provides much more background data and this new poll doesn’t give much, so there was some caution about this. They were guessing between the two polls, we might want to assume it’s a dead heat.
Now if Obama comes and helps Franken on the stump, and with the trend lines in Al’s favor, things would be looking pretty good. The thought of Franken giving speeches on the Senate floor is quite amusing.
dayam, you gotta bone up on their scandals – don’t the brits have sex scandals in their political scandals?
Letter from Sen. Boxer to constituents:
My emph.
spew – i just saw the promo during the news for snl – tina fey and the guest host in what looked like a high school hallway. i’ve resisted watching the huffpo piece – i wanna watch it live – well, as live as the west coast is used to it.
Now it’s my turn to head for the barn.
Be good to yourselves, and all other living things.
Namaste
Doubt the seductive beauty shtick will improve with age. But they are short of wimmen in AK…
yeah but even a sex scandal doesn’t rate next to this piece of crockery. Besides it’s pretty common place that most politicians are sticking their wick in other pots of wax *wink*
((Wobbs)) I know, just…make him lots of apple cakes, and it wouldn’t do you any harm to have a bite now and then. ;)
few:
More than one, but not as many as usual or as expected
boa noite SD
okay now I’m reall tout of here
g’nite southern dragon
You betcha.
Nite SD Sleep well my friend!!
((margot)) ROFL love ya to bits
(does adding rum mean it will bite?)
It’d definitely be an improvement over Norm’s rambling tirades…!
laughing
Aloha, SD!
For Wobbs at 119
nite SD
egads, that should have read entirely different, Margot.
ack, off to bed
lmao :D
HAHA!
So odd how Flailin can spew those lines about “palling with terrorists” when her hubby was a card-carrying member of a successionist party, and she just this year spoke highly of and directly to that same group.
I think John Adams and many of the other Founding Fathers and Mothers had a word for people like Sayrah! and Tawd and their friends in the Alaska Independence Party….what was that??? Oh Yeah-Traitors!
As you do to the least of these….
man, that is horrible news, Katymine.
If what Brad Sherman says is true, and the Congresscritters were threatened that PD51 martial law would be imposed if the bill didn’t pass, then we need a couple of them to go on the record with that. Even if it ruins them. Because that’s treason, and it needs to be fixed.
No I do not. Not for one minute. I’m amazed folks are suggesting it as a possibility. But, my prognostication batting average sux.
oh oh death
irrc, martial law is a term used in the house for a procedural thing dealing with the vote and the time normally required before the vote can happen.
its not katy bar the door kinda martial law.
the Maverick family is having a fit about McCain…..
The Maverick Family doesn’t like McCain
Which means he isn’t a Maverick…..
I’m surprised that nobody is really picking up on Sherman’s assertions about NSPD-51! That should really send a chill down all the Dem’s spines… Oh, that’s right they lack ‘em…! 8-(
Hi Suz. Yes, I saw the discussions of that, but that’s not what Sherman is talking about. He’s saying that separate of the procedural thing, there was specifically the threat of invoking PD51.
whew I didn’t really think ya did believe she will be around 2012. I we are lucky she will be in one of those the state of Alsaka has for those who broke Their Laws!!
i wonder if anyone has asked the mavericks what they think?
Hi, CT, hope things are good out your way. My interpretation of Nancy P’s “You don’t know the half of it” line is that this PD51 sword has been dangling over the Congressional Dems’ heads ever since the ‘06 election.
Anyone who refers to oneself as a maverick, isn’t one.
if you are correct, then yes, someone needs to blow that whistle – do ya think there is a provision that if it is blown that it will then be invoked?
Hmmm, it’s NSPD 51…
Btw, I was atop Mauna Kea for my orientation on Tuesday…!
Ok….. what is PD51?
Very good question, Suz! Hard to say that there’s any sort of means to rebut the invocation of NPSD-51…! 8-(
Welp, creature of laws that I am, that’s probably be a combination of investigation(s), indictment(s), prosecutions(s), and/or impeachments(s).
Niters Suz & all you amazing LLN firepups…time to snuggle up with mrbrat & & catch SNL. ;>D
See my link at 148, and it’s NSPD-51, not PD-51!
g’nite npg
here we go (on the west coast) snl
Probably, impeachment would be the only recourse…!
*sigh* Still a couple more hours to go here…
I am very happy for you and your new gig, CT! What a wonderful thing. Last month The Sweetie and I were at the Haleakela summit for sunset. Never seen so many stars in our lives, a great joy and wonder. And rarely been so cold! Be sure to take your vitamins!
i shall practice restraint – but advise you to strap in and put down all liquids before it starts
It’s always interesting, during a lull, what people will decide to do. We’re all a bit predictable in how we respond to something, but when there’s nothing major happening we show what’s important to us.
What has the McCain camp come up with? Attack ads full of lies and hatred.
What has the Obama camp come up with? Concern for ordinary people.
We’re a proud patriotic people and we need a good, strong leader who knows how to help us and when to stay out of the way. Barack Obama cares about Main Street Americans and has the energy and intelligence to do the job right. During the Clinton administration we had a growing economy and peace. A few of those people have joined the Obama team to get the American economy back on the road to good health and to mend relations with other nations. Some of the challenges are different and some problems we face now are worse, but with strong teamwork, the right fundamentals and help from above they can be overcome. There are two presidential candidates. Only one can win. As I see it the choice is obvious, it’s a slam dunk. Obama.
Well When ya going to open a diary on Oxdown on your adventures CT. But are ya having fun yet???
Brad Sherman’s comment regarding possibility of martial law: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v…..re=related
And go to the bathroom before it starts……. you will laugh that hard….
ditto, you need to be diarying this dood. load your pictures up – i wanna see some eye candy and read about the telescopes.
Each ‘run’ I’ll be seeing both the sunset and the ensuing sunrise in the morn… Not looking forward to the cold in December, tho…!
I guess I was talking about what Congress could do if it turned out to be true that a threat of invoking NSPD-51 (and thanks for the correction there) had been used coercively, but the directive had not actually been carried out. Once the USG were moved to the martial law footing, then I’m totally out to sea as far as what remedies would exist any more. It wouldn’t much surprise me if there were none, none at all.
What job is this?
Heh, ya’ll are persistent, eh? ;-)
jealous glare
yes yes yes CT and hurry up about it! We are waiting with bated breath for your news!
Sounds stupid and definitely not like Popeye.
Laser spotter for the telescopes atop Mauna Kea, the premiere Astronomy center in the world!
In the youtube clip he does say “martial law in America” which does not sound to me like any more restricted meaning, and yes I too wish those who were told this would come forward.
Sherman’s remarks also gave me the impression that only certain members were selected for this particular treatment. I wonder what the criteria were? E.g., could members of the CBC or others from dark-toned districts be singled out for this threat? And how were screws put to others, if only some were told about ml?
What, just ‘cuz he has the best job in the best part of Hawaii…?
Hmmm.
You may have a point there.
- another jealous glare -
heading out….. enjoy SNL everyone…… Nite all
SNL opening was fucking great! Still LOAO!!
Change is when you get a new teacher.
Damn. Cool! Congrats!
my fantasy job after retirement was working at a telescope.
i’m glad that even though my dream didn’t come true, it did for one of my buds. good on ya ct.
nite Katy see ya next late late nite here at the Lake!!
g’nite katymine
Aloha, Katy!
G’night katymine, sweet dreams to ye.
Suz any new when the back room boys are going to get the comments widget fixed?
BTW … you all are the best……
nite katymine
i think they are taking a few days to glory in the magnificence of oxdown before they start to tackle the gizmo’s again.
they were working round the clock there for a bit making sure everything was working and double checking the double checks.
Thanks for the update Suz… but I sure do miss that widget. sure is hard to keep your place and keep up when you have to krrp refreshing you link(:>((
i hear ya – i think they may have melted down a few keyboards and heard a rumor that there were some fingers needing to be iced afterwards.
Heh, and I got spoiled with the ’show text’ feature too…! ;-)
OH yeah that sure made it a lot easier to answer another commenter when you have their text right in front of ya!!
i want the new comments widget. show text is second. being able to edit again (without using my magic mod powers) is third.
Previewing one’s comment nullifies the need for edit, Ma Cheri! ;-)
i confess to, on occasion, forgetting the peterr prayer
preview is my friend
preview is my friend
preview is my friend
g’nite katymine and congrats on your anniversary!
Sure is and I think we all forget at times. That and just reading what you just typed…. sometimes my mind is going faster than my fingers can keep up with and I skip words and thought that should have been in the comment.
Well, I shall bid ya’ll a fond adieu! Aloha Oe!!!
peterr prayerr
if you’re not on dial-up, you can’t guess the half of it.
aloha ct
dammit, i knew i shudda previewed (laughing)
we should embrace the screw-ups
i am in touch with my inner screw up way too much newt.
I gave up on that torment in 99 and have never looked back! I refuse to work on customers PCs at their homes if they don’t have a high speed connection. I tell them that I will take it to my lab/garage to work on it… Dial-up is the pits… but I did use it for years before there was DSL…
i was on dial-up until a year ago next month.
i had been on cable modem before i moved up on the mt – and i gotta say, it was dayam hard going back to dialup.
Complete agreement. I can do in an hour or 2 off-site, what takes 5-7 hours on-site.
or more specially if you need to download large files to update or fix the Os with patches.
Includes travel time, too.
Autumn Leaves (ytube), J.J. Johnson Quartet in Japan.
Among many, many other things J.J. Johnson was Isaac Hayes’ co-author on the complete Shaft score. Interesting how career paths cross.
ok pups, that’s it for me tonight. thanks ya’ll for hanging out with me.
g’nite all.
nite suz
SNL was great tonight!! CT be sure and catch it when it comes on for you. Oh and hurry up with the pictures and the diary on your new position on the mountain. Inquiring Minds Want To Know!
Nite Suz give Token a treat from Tucker!!
The new comments thingy is absolutely number one here. Assuming, as in the past, all of the programs won’t have to reload. Gotta admit I’m a little nervous about that. Kinda holding on by a thread here.
I’m with you, Sunny. Full reloads are painful, dialup or not.
Night Pups Time to hit the bed and get horizontal! See ya next late late nite(:>))
nite nahant
i’m out, too
nite pups
Good Morning
good morning raven. hope you’re feeling better today.
Good morning selise.
Raven, that’s disgusting.
Good morning, pups. It’s Dowd, Kristof, Friedman and Rich today. MoDo considers “Sarah’s Pompom Palaver,” and says watching Gov. Sarah Palin’s strenuously folksy debate performance, we could wonder when elite became a bad thing in America. Mr. Kristof, in “Racism Without Racists,” says one of this season’s fallacies is that if Barack Obama is paying an electoral price for his skin tone, it must be because of racists. Not so — the evidence is that he is facing what scholars have dubbed “racism without racists.” Mr. Friedman’s column is titled “Swedish Spoken Here.” He says when the next president takes office, Americans should not be surprised when he spells out the ramifications of being a debtor nation. Mr. Rich says “Pitbull Palin Mauls McCain,” and that the 2008 election is now an Obama-Palin race about “the future,” and the only person who doesn’t seem to know it is Mr. Past, poor old John McCain.

The coffee and tea are ready, and I’ve got French toast made with challah. I’ve been a responsible staff for my kittehs and they’ve had their morning medication, and because I was up very late last night with our out of town guest I’m going back to bed for a nap. Have a grand day.
Mornin’, pups -
Holding my breath in anticipation of seeing palin turn up on one of the Sunday a.m. shows.
