Digg it for Huckleberry!
Extra day without pay…postal wotkerd love that privatized USPO…not. Gut abend Suz, Nuero and pups. Vie Gehts?
better. still get a bit queasy when i eat but it goes away instead of lingering
and lingering
and lingering
She better be better! No more of this whimping around the Lake! /s
For interested pups, my report on the Delbert McClinton Sandy Beaches Cruise.
Too much fun, a final extravagance, before pulling in our horns, who knows, maybe for good.
never mind, go with nahant’s Digg
Neuro see my 9 (:>))
that guy, i recommended your fantastic diary and commented. nice reporting on the blues cruise dood
OK I will… (:>)) Sorry Neuro I didn’t see you around tonight.
I saw it, see my 15
yay!
i love the hehehehe dog in this cartoon. been drawing a blank on the dog character that did the hehehehe later. was in some tweety and sylvester cartoons iirc
Suze, don’t know what was wrong, but glad you’re feeling better. Sounds nasty.
lurk fixed the digg links so they goes to the one up top
re:cartoon – in the words of tuttle, dial-up sux.
Mutley?
Aloha Ya’ll! The postmen are feeling the woes too… Possibly Tuesdays will be no delivery days like Sundays…! Anybody else rooting for the Cards tomorrow, too…? ;-)
had a bug. actually, didn’t fully get it and was fighting it for several days. probably wudda been faster to get sick and get it over with in 12 to 24 hours but i have no control over my immune system response.
mutley! yes, thank you ellie
:(
Oh, mah darlin’ Suzanne. You picked a mighty purty one.
hahahahaha nice drawl demi
I’m rooting for the Steelers to get all the Cards.
Thaynk yew.
i’m not gonna watch the game and have no real interest in it but
steelers, baby
steelers
Heh, I’m typically an AFC fan but I’m a sucker for true underdogs…! ;-)
Cardinals. As a Niner fan, with five Lombardis in the team’s case, the LAST thing I want is for the Stealers to have six.
GO CARDINALS!
i do have to admit, after reading marcy’s tillman post today, i’m sorta rooting for both.
good Luck to ya, my friend.
sorry that newt & I will be the ones singing happy songs.
Not being an affectionado myself, and in the words of my friend Joe Biden, who gives a shit?
Sorry.
well, if it’s any consolation, your team won’t embarrass itself.
What’s on my mind tonight? I always get depressed when these guys discuss economics. Too many cooks spoil the idea, and I think Michael Steele answered dakine’s question.
How is everyone?
I’ll admit, you have a point.
But with no real horse in the contest, I just hope for a good (great) game and fervently hope to NOT hear Warner step up to a mic afterwards and say, “All glory to God.”
steelers
I was just thinking that too. Funny how certain topics always end up with the same kinds of argucomments, tho, isn’t it?
hey cujo – how ya been?
It’s funny that everybody has been writing the Cards off the entire post-season even when they were hosting the wild card game…! ;-)
I’m still rooting for Pittsburgh, for many reasons. One of them is that these really aren’t Pat Tillman’s Cardinals. Ironically, back when he was playing, Kurt Warner was playing for the team bmaz says Tillman didn’t want to play for.
off to dance the night away with Morpheus, he’s come.
Good Night All!
Pretty well. You’ve gotten over the bug, I guess?
Glad you’re on the mend.
Any word about ES’s power?
Goodnight, Elliot.
Nite nite, Elliott.
I’m right behind you, but I’ve got that dog gone Clementine song stuck in my head now. *g*
g’nite ellie
Aloha, Ellie! ;-)
g’nite demi (sorry for the ear worm)
Sweet dreams Elliott
still haven’t heard from es. don’t think we will until he is powered up again. being out in the country, i’m sure he is low on the list for power restoration.
nite elliott
Nope, no sixth for the Stillers…don’t care about Warner, want the Steelers to lose as bad as the Dolphins fans wanted the Pats to lose last year.
(wheezing laughter here)
Thanks again, anyway.
PZ Myers had quite a collection of quotes from various Christians who would seem to agree with you. I’ve always said there are at least three gigantic assumptions people like that are making, and those quotes pick up on the least of them.
Gehts mir gut, ond du?
Hey Newt, had a blast on the cruise. Check out the report. Padded the hell out of my guitar resume.
I’m not putting myself on the same plateau as those selfish pricks from Miami. Again, I get your drift.
It is now going to be in Singletary’s hands to get the next 3 championships.
g’evening Suze & Pups!
crap – didn’t see your comment bb. sorry.
the news from the post office certainly did factor in my selection of this cartoon.
reading the last half now
hey ndfg
Clementine sez Huckleberry Hound is a Blue Dog, twain’t he?
Goodnight, NDFG.
he is blue and a dog but he appears to be an ethical get along kinda guy who actually works, which disqualifies him from true blue dog status
Uh-oh! Was ES knocked out by a big blow…? I’m so clueless to current events it’s sickening…! :-(
That’s not what Clementine said ;)
I seem to remember he could also change his mind when the facts warranted.
he lost his power in that ice storm earlier in the week :(
Aloha, NDFG! Anybody up at the Beach Haus…? ;-)
That Guy, nice diary. Kind of happy and sad, but a terrific record of your experience.
I didn’t know that Paul Thorn is from Tupelo.
Recommended.
What has happened to all the Diggers tonight??
Pulled up a restoration map and they’re going to be at 95% in the general ES area by midnight tonight. But that looks close in :-(
Sending toasty warm thoughts.
Eureka’s power is tremendous. He rules over the Late Late Nite tunes (on his nights on) with omnipotence. Fear him…
uh, oh, you mean, like electricity?
long way from tupelo
gotta link for that restoration map sunny?
Requeum for a Political Party…Their 6 state strategy. Gallup polls the the Republicabs are Roasted, Toasted and french fried. My relatives included…awfully “muley” forr Elephants!
6? they are overly optimistic – i heard they only had 5 red states left.
aloha, CT! things are kinda winding down over at rp.
i must say i’m a bit bemused by modo’s latest knickers-in-a-knot. She must have felt the draft from the winds of change! *g*
Love Huckleberry Hound.
Hi Suz, NDFG, everyone.
I done Dugg it soon as I realized you had stepped on my Digg…maybe some are distracted by this thing they call “football”…:)
hey margot – you still iced in?
Sure is nice to see you. Doing ok?
Kurt Warner will be throwing on the run…the pass pocket can’t hold up to the red dog switches of the steel curtain…hope the Cards got a running game to keep the Steelers linebackers honest. Possesion time wins it.
*waves at Margot*
Nice to see you too :)
Yup! Working on new series :D
How about you? Good?
it’s a pdf. You can pull it from here.
*wonders if margot been working on any art?*
I don’t care who wins, have no stake at all in either team, but all things considered, the guys from Pittsburgh would seem more like the Democrats, and the dudes from
McSameLandArizona would appear to be the Republicans, so that may decide it for me…I am going to watch the halftime show, and at least some of the game, just because it is there…
thanks sunny – i did not know there was such a thang available
whats that? I know HOCKEY but fooseball???
Sehr gut!
Wow! Do I detect a spine developing amongst the Dems…
*g*
Thats what I am looking for Bruce “The Boss” is up at 1/2 time…
springsteen!
Not really but kind of you to ask. I sure liked your link that you left downstairs, that is Good.
It cracked me up to hear on Rachel, Ana ex-Wonkette trying to defend McSame’s snub of Obama’s Super Bowl Watch Party as just a case of a sports fan really wanting to watch the game…McSame is just being the jerk that he is…if he had any class he would have showed up for O’s party, he could always watch a tape of the game later to get all the nitty gritty.
why no art margot?
I don’t suppose they get many ice storms down that way.
Heh, Ya must have some Canuck in ya somewhere…! ;-)
Good Evening everyone! Yes, we are pretty much still iced in. MrCE did drive to University Circle, but I stayed all day at home, reading the New Yorker.
a grrrlll can hope!
nahant @ 101, Suz @ 102
yup
You’re a hoot!
e-mail me the instructions had trouble gettig the diid site to work after sveral attemps gigured my Hal needed software.
I don’t know! Just one of those things.
maybe that’s what I should do Sunday instead of watching TV at all, catch up on some of those New Yorkers I haven’t had time to read, before I recycle them…look at the cartoons, at least.
smart move christine e – i prefer to not drive when it is snowy or icy.
Nope I just grew up in one of the Original SIX!! So it does run in my blood.. of course I did skate for years with my friends & co-workers. We also rented Boston Universities ice rink for a summer… Boy was that way cool… We had many skaters who had just graduated from college playing with us. I sure learned a lot that Summer.
Chris, I tapped my car all over with broom handle and ice fell of in big sheets. Ice and 7 inches of snow. I had cabin fever big time.
thx, fun to do figure stuff again. was making some lizards.
Saw a monica serra show and liked it:
http://www.monicaserra.com/fla…..tings.html
72 degrees and sunny in NE KS Saturday, supposed to be in mid-40s Sunday…
snap outta it
i’m jonesin for some of your art margot
No you don’t need software, you have everything already. You might need to add them to your safe sites depending on your settings, or you haven’t created a login yet???
You still a Bruin fan…? Orr and all… Or is it only the Sharks these days? I’m an Oiler fan thru and thru… Gretzky, Tikannen, etal…! ;-)
hit 51 today but its down to 31 now. glad gary the wood guy brought me more wood today.
Aw, newt, not really. I’m watching “Once” and singing loudly.
I’m good thanks.
Still enlarging thumb prints (slow connection), but wow!
I love the Sharks (but not tonight, they got whipped by Chicago) but I still love the Bruins and yes Bobby Orr and Phil Esposito and on and on…
Those were the years I was skating my self… still have my Bower Supremes … they don’t fit anymore but can’t let go of them(:>))
My wife is tripping over my farmer’s tan I’m developing from my labors…! Scorcher today… I’m almost looking forward to the snow-capped Mtn. on Thurs. Nite…! (Almost…!) ;-)
We got to 72 real nice… I talked to two of my ststers and they are FREEZING in the Boston Area. Oldest & Hubby are leaving for Florida on Monday for two months of vacation/retirement time.
probably my fault. The images are served from, slow upstream, laptop down in the basement.
Heh, I’ve no need to travel abroad to experience the full spectrum…!
Hey, still here?
“You must have fallen from the sky…”
i was talking with my wood guy’s wife today (he brought her and one of the teens today when he delivered) and i realized, i do not miss the bay area at all (just the people).
even when its cold and stormy up here, i love it. i was telling her about how this is my test to see if i can handle oregon winters on the coast and they both told me i appear to be surviving just fine and reminded me that winter is almost over.
of course, i gotta remember that old saying, as the days get longer, the cold gets stronger.
Ya but how many in the Islands get to enjoy the FULL spectrum you get to???
I am researching “Once.”
Knew I’d get a bite on that…how weak is that…people are pissed about the rich getting all the money and the peole taking the debt and the losing their jobs.
Only the foolish ones like me…! ;-)
The 130,000 inhabitants of the Big Isle can experience it…
hubris, thy name is republican.
Very true Suz I do remember my years back in Mass and Maine… Seemed in Maine there was 8 months of winter and 3 months of Summer, which you could rely on for all the dam rain… When talking to sisters I didn’t mention the Tomato plant that is holding over from last season with new tomatoes and flowers on it… I had one last year and the second years crop from it was just as good as the first! I lurve me California.. Deadwood city in particular(:>)) ” Best Weather By Government Test” Or at least the sign over Broadway says.
After eleven days in office, Newsweek puts Obama in Vietnam
Coming to newsstands Monday: 1965.
That’s the year then-President Lyndon Johnson officially expanded America’s involvement in Vietnam, expanding the number of US troops from 3,500 in March to 200,000 by December.
Newsweek invites the comparison with a bold cover, titled, “OBAMA’S VIETNAM,” going to press less than two weeks after Obama takes office. Johnson, like Obama, inherited a troubled US conflict from his predecessor.
Now I remember why I have never read Newsweek. Assfuckingassholes!!
they are trying hard to pin all of bush’s fuckups on obama. our job is to not let them.
Blocked may be e-mail has different password od ID… something?
why does comedy central use the bleep? they are a cable channel not available over the airways.
errr beep… to beep out the bleep
Nah. It’s me — on dial-up :-(
Also wondering around poking at Kali and Fauvism..
You got that right Suz! Time for some complaining letters to the editor! I still can’t understand how the Dems let the reThugs keep lying how the Media is Librul… Librul my ass it is all owned by fucking Rich reThugs!
Even ex-red Americans are not that dumb.
I think Kali and Fauvism go well together, imho. :)
I was just watching Katt Williams on CC and the bleeps creeped me out.
hey mary mcc – i was watching it and had to switch the channel – too many beeps messed up what he was saying.
I really like him. Was that originally on HBO? Sometimes they end up on CC but start out on HBO where nasty words are just fine. Cocksuckaas.
why can hbo not beep and cc has to? is it a matter of cc choosing to beep?
SNL… “Chewable pampers”™ Ugg
One never knows why another chooses to bleep, do one?
you gotta pay extra for no beeps.
analogous to net neutrality?
Rate I’m going, I may have enough info to start forming a view in -say- 48 hrs *g*
lol :)
a 48 hr. attention span is an artists dream!
Neglected to mention the intermittent part..
yeah, that tends to stretch out the 48 a little.
night all!
g’nite tw3k – nice to have ya visiting late late nite again
nite tw3k
love your stuff
WHOO HOOO!
Thud.
Groan.
WHOO HOOO!
Thud.
Groan
WhOOo….
THUD!
Gnite Folks!!
does anybody know how “tw3k” is pronounced?
sweet dreams.
This sort of thing, which includes movies that have lots of violence or sex where they cut so much out that you hardly know what’s going on, just astounds me. Why bother showing such a thing if you can’t show a complete performance? It’s a rhetorical question, of course, but such things are really irritating. Hopefully, there will be time in the next eight years to make it so that the “public’s airwaves” aren’t controlled by prudes at all hours of the day and night.
Tweak.
looks like ya had a great birthday dood.
g’thud busted
Sure it’s not Twick?
Goodnight, Busted.
thanks busted
time for me to thud myself
‘nite all
g’nite neuro

g’nite newton
g’nite bb
i think it is tweak
What I want to know is where the fuck are all these nitwit trolls coming from all of a sudden? Shit fire.
The last one just didn’t understand a thing we where all kindly trying to tell him/her. It is like trying
to talk to those girls back in high school who wore rollers to the drive in movies with their boyfriends.
When did they take those things out? After the date?
That’s what I was thinking. But I’m not fluent in geek.
LOL!
i think they are trying ot get the last bit of wingnet welfare
This is for all those trolls
me too – i called it wingnet welfare instead of wingnut welfare – but will trolls, maybe my typo was an accurate description
token is demanding i pay attention to him instead of the computer. g’nite pups and thanks for hanging out with me tonight.
Night Suz, scritches to Token
Grace under pressure is tough. Hoping it’s a last gasp.
Thanks suz and all. Good night.

Oh my.
Good morning, pups. It’s MoDo, Friedman, Kristof and Rich today. MoDo’s angry. In “Disgorge, Wall Street Fat Cats,” she says the president’s disgust at Wall Street looters was good. But we need more. We need disgorgement. Disgorgement is when courts force wrongdoers to repay ill-gotten gains. And then enact Sen. McCaskill’s bill… The Moustache of Wisdom is at the Davos meeting. In “Elvis Has Left the Mountain” he says there is no magic bullet for this economic crisis. We are going to have to learn to live with a lot more uncertainty for a lot longer than our generation has ever experienced. Mr. Kristof writes about “Obama’s Long Shot for Peace.” He says a serious American peace effort by President Obama must reduce the misery in the Palestinian territories and focus on a peace deal between Syria and Israel. Mr. Rich, in “Herbert Hoover Lives,” says no one expects the Republicans to give the new president carte blanche to pass his stimulus plan, but the opposition might want to pitch in and play a serious role at a time of national peril. No, Mr. Rich, they don’t.
Here they are.
The coffee, tea and hot chocolate are ready, and I’ve got chocolate croissants to make us all feel like fat cat bankers, rolling in luxury. I’ll leave you with the money line from Mr. Rich’s column:
(He takes a few nice shots at Rush too…) Have a great day.
Yup..brace yourself and hope that all of them don’t show up here..’g’. I dare say we have had a dozen, or so, during the past two weeks.
