poodles!
Yay! I can jump in at the beginning of the conversation. No EPU’s for me tonight!
good evening, ES
No vacation for the Congress…..
hi Gnome
Are we gonna talk poodles?
Good evening all.
It’s the Eureka Show!
No fleas, at Club Poodle. Ever.
But there is a little umbrella in every drink.
On my mind?
…the Senso-rings of regret.
;>)
I don’t actually know much about them…do you?
We’ve got to chase them down and make them miserable if they do vacate and come home.
Remember last year? The critters hid like ninjas at midnight.
*ponders changing avatar*
Yes. Like Jane, I have a few in my family.
You betcha.
That’s right. Feinstein and her secretive public schedule, disappearing Nancy.
Oh dear. I hate to try to imagine how that image came about.
Won’t do any good to chase down my assclowns. They are all Repugnants and follow their leader Goodhair Perry who says we don’t need no stinkin’ healthcare reform.
Woof Woof ES!
Much like this one, I suppose.
Regretfully, I don’t have much in the poodle line.
;>)
Hey, you got anything going this weekend?
LOLOL
I would ask where you get your ideas on skin coloration and texture but…I’m afraid of the answer. ;)
Me?
You are right. Another oh dear.
never mind
must be the heat
Dear lord, db….
Happy that you’re my newest facebook pal, though!
France. I get them from France.
;>)
I feel the same about AR critters, but I might just do it anyway.
fuck em
Hiya nahant.
Perry is truly losing his mind, huh?
Heat heat? You will know the heat IF you show up!!
Yes, I was actually imagining tonight what I would ask my congresscritter if he holds any town halls.
Hey ES ya going to make it tomorrow?……/s
You DO know where Redwood city is right??
Aw man, I KNEW it!
I love the new Album name for Cornershop.
Judy Sucks A Lemon For Breakfast
O.M.G. Rachel ripped him a new one tonight. I missed it, but Jane posted it to YouTube.
I do indeed. Will have to take a raincheck though. *sigh*
Has anyone seen aliasofwestgate?
Apparently, a lot of people that I’m acquainted with here inhabit FB as well – I still haven’t considered how to mix such an networking app into my vast miasma, or even if such a thing is desirable but it’s quite flattering that people think enough of a semi-retired blogger to stay in touch.
;>)
Not in the past few weeks.
All the Pups who will be here will be missing ya ES. Maybe next one! There will be a next one here if I have anything to say about it!! Gotta have one at least two to three times a year!
Katymine been around?
Hey DB that is what it is all about!! Staying in touch with those who are friends..
BB ya going to make the trip up here for the MeetUp?
That was fantastic!
She’s been awfully quiet lately.
She was in for a morning chat last Saturday, or the Saturday before.
I cut my cast off with a metal grinder. A few scratches but not wet all night caste. Got my hand back. Politics sucks
I haven’t seen her in the evenings, but can’t speak for mornings. How are you, BB?
Hi to ES, Chris, and everyone.
Find the fb setting that deletes your birthday… unless you want a hundred people to remind you how old you are. *s*
Hey Margot,
We had such wonderful weather last weekend! Visited Medina and Kidron.
Excellent.. I did that to my leg cast 25 years ago. Still have not received a check from the insurance company. /s
I’m here, Margot. Been lurking more often as of late at night. But still up. Pretty much been working a lot lately (people taking vacations), and getting down to the nittygritty on the finding another set of roomies again.
I lied about my age, anyway.
;>)
Alias.. quiet but still loved..)
So Are there any Pups who are interested in coming to the Bear Creek Meetup tomorrow but have committed yet??
Well it is not too late yet!! Just let me know and I will send you the location info!!
Of course if you are Newton…..
let me guess.. born 6-66.
Hi Alias. Good to see you around. At least with all that work you get paid, yes?
So is this affair a pot luck?
About 7:15 I went for a jog uphill for hour and a half and back dpwn, 2 hours 20 minutes all told…made a wrong turn on the sandy mountain trails was tired when I got home. Took today off for planning commission where we got our asses handed to us, except for the sell outs.
I would love to come, but I am a couple thousand miles away. Besides I have to head to the other coast on Sunday.
Yesh. Pay is good. I had a friend over a couple of weeks ago, which is when i stopped posting so much. Spent a crazy few days all over michigan and otherwise chilled out, mostly.
Yup But as the Host I am making Jambalaya and for Desert Apple and Peach Pies!!
Others are bringing Salads, cold cuts and hore de oars!! Oh and of course libations!
Organically inactive gray matter between two blow dried manes.
-G
Dunno…I was a baby then.
;>)
Oh come om it is only a hop skip and a jump away!!
Sunday I will be flying over your namesake!
Hello linen!
707!
Best of luck in the roomie department, and glad to hear from you.
Meps!
;>)
I still see that image when I close my eyes.
This is a bug, not a feature!
I had no idea the Turks were doing this now.
Turkish frigate captures 5 Somali pirates
Saw Rachel on Rick Perry tonight. The fight between the nutcases and the semi-level-headed republicans will be fun to watch. Something’s got to give!
I’ll have Quality Control look into it.
;>)
Yeah, alias, hope you are making a decent wage now.
What semi-level-headed republicans?
Oh, baby!
It is hard to believe that those skinny black dudes are fearsome pirates. None of them looks like a swashbuckler.
I wish! I’m not quite over the 10$ an hour mark yet. Even then, it won’t be enough with the way living expenses are right now. But i have a job, i can rely on most of its hours and otherwise i’m doing good.
OK, pumpkin time for me. Might see you around tomorrow. I have too much getting ready to do to hang out much.
Cornershop is hot, ES! Background singers sound like Joe Cocker/Leon Russell sound of a while ago.

Pawlenty and Meghan McCain?? Can’t think of any others. There must be voters out there that are reasonable republicans, though. Gotta admit that I’ve had to cut all ties with people who voted for Bush in 2004 or McCain in 2008 though. No excuses allowed.
Went to a main page. Do you mean Bird?
alias,
With your perseverance and wonderful attitude, you’ll be promoted. Life will be good for you, girlscout!
I’m mostly being sad tonight, FDL, because… well… the Gates controversy has got me down. All of it stupid as hell, and I’m feeling like the only sane person on the planet.
Agreed.
That’s good, but I was thinking of Ra Ra Riot, Animal Collective, and Fleet Foxes harmony is pretty.
Yes, all favorites of mine.. Bird too. I have to be careful and not post any of those mentioned to often. *s*
Professor Gates, or SecDef Gates?
gotcha.
So, GDP, yer doggin the Lake now, are ya?
*G*
Take good care of Betsy, and thanks for doin so! *G*
It’s almost Jane H’s birthday here on the left coast.
I’ll wish her Happy birthday a little early.
So in response to the Gates matter, we should tell all of the rightwingers that if the police come to their door to quickly surrender all of their weapons and resist agitating the police or else they aren’t supporting law enforcement.
-G
That would be correct, comrade.
nite you guys
Night one and all.
-G
Maybe they should get on bended knee and ask the police to club them a few times.. just to be able to demonstrate their patriotism.
I’m out too.
Good night.
Dang! I’m misssing ES and a lot of the other firepups- well see ya later.
[hugs and such]
Meanwhile, the rest of ya are stuck with me. :)
The GOP has NOTHING I have been quiet until now but this whole GOP meme that we lose if Obama does not get things past is false. The GOP is going back home there voters want this 76% on our side does not mean its all the Blue states. Just what are our numbers in the Red States?
Forget getting a majority in all districts can we get a majority in red and purple districts on this issue that Obama did not get?
That is what we need? If we make a stand!
(Granted Harry and Nancy are our to biggest obstacles)
Fine we win if we make a point of getting rid of them because they lacked the STONES!
We have months to organize and change public opinion to our side!
Drop what we got now lets go for MORE! The GOP either gives us what we want or we run with the next election Sweden health care no effin private insurance and we scream they live longer than us!
I would love to see large peaceful demonstrations for single payer, nationwide, as a way to make visible the kinds of numbers you are talking about, ThingsComeUndone. Is anybody working on organizing such a thing?
If the GOP goes racist about Swedes marrying Swedes we point out that Hugo’s people in a third world country are catching up to us!
http://seminal.firedoglake.com/diary/5688
We need African American and Hispanic Radio support sorry Obama MSM is not carrying the truth time to out flank them!
Don’t know who organized the immigration marches? Obama needs them the immigration marches were bigger than the tea baggers.
Just talking out loud; it appears you gotta be a pretty nice person to be a Late Night Host here at FDL.
If I was one, I’d apply for the job. But I ain’t. :)
Tea bagger numbers vs Immigration numbers Glen Beck thinks he surrounds us Obama has just to ask!

sorry here is the link
What is your Grief if I may ask?
Happy B day Jane:)
Well, here you go, I really don’t have any grief. No general beefs either.
There.
This happens all the time my Dad’s generation thought that they were poor they dressed a certain way fine the police wold pick them up.
Fine they worked hard got money and suits and it turns out they where wrong my Dad got hassled in a three piece suit, waiting to pick me up from work I had no car at the time.
Policeman wanted my Dad’s ID now! Forget my dad had bad circulation and the ID was in his back pocket Policeman was going to drag my Dad out of the car.
Then I got off work and helped my Dad.
60+ year old guys in suits if Dark are still causes of street crime in Paranoid Minds.
Lets see how these cops treat a WallStreet Hedgefunder!
I can’t be a Mod myself to much of a hair trigger temper:)
In re Gates — NYT piece up on police attitudes on citizen pushback. Some are sane, some are, well…
Bet he didn’t study history in school, what with the whole failing-to-learn-its-lessons thing and all.
So GOPers the majority of voters have healthcare if Obama lowers the price of drugs covered by Healthcare to what Mexico pays well the insurance industry is FUCKED!
Funny how the Main Stream Media never brings up that point?
If Obama lowers healthcare costs 10% then all those companies that have already budgeted for those costs get a 10% reduction?
That is unexpected money for the stock market! Can you say Unexpected Market Rally?
Which is the best kind as the big boys hurry in:)
Things, is your father black?

If you can’t handle a Cranky 60 year old give up you can’t be a Cop some measure of diplomacy is a requirement for the job>
He was Dark Brown:)
have you been profiled?
The GOP has horrible poll numbers the GOP blames it on the cult of personality. Why Obama is Black as if Hispanics and African Americans get along great.
Obama won because he said he would end the wars. Obama won because of Healthcare. Obama won because of ideas.
Reverse the assumption poll African Americans, Hispanics and Whites would an African American have won who is pro war? anti Healthcare?
Lets see some polling on those questions!
Considering the GOP’s Sotomayor questions it seems plain that the GOP seems to think its anyone but the White guy?
We need to disprove that GOP delusion.
I think Obama better get back to his base or he won’t be around long. And we are the base.
I’m really trying to approach you, be approachable myself.
Does this work?
If You call standing in -10 degree weather with my white friends for an 1/2 hour while the police ran the numbers of an AM radio in my car ( I had just upgraded to AM/FM then yes.
If you call getting tickets driving brown fine I admit I’m a fast driver sure I’ve been to traffic school tons of times.
If you call being called to my highschool principle office over paint chips this guy blocked me cause I took his parking space I tried to squeeze through no luck i asked him to move his car 2 weeks later. I’m in the principle’s office I admit well maybe.
I get sent to the police office where I’m told I can avoid County Jail if I confess. The Police wait until after the ATM’s are closed they closed about 9 pm then then they ask my parents for bail.
My Dad’s in Chicago my Mom don’t have that cash a Church friend of my dad’s bails me out.
Oxford white paint turns out to be on a million GM cars I beat the charge why the police pissed my Dad off enough to get a lawyer and we could afford it.
No lawyer a Lawyer you pay for no jail public defenders straight to jail.
Okay, bye.
Can you desribe your feeling in those times? I can guess, but I’ll never know. Did your father discuss these things, and how old were you?
g’nite Kelly. Nice lullaby.
KellyCDenver @ 124 You seem great I used to be a regular at Late late nite again whats the hassle the mods try and God knows I try their patience myself.
You respond to my 122 does that offend? I admit I question everything offend in a harsh way lacking manners
Henry the 5 is more my style and like Henry I’m sorry I’m not so nice sometimes.
But if your offended pray tell why and it might be mended?
A little Alice Pooper
So you sleep well tonight!
Night Pups. See ya tomorrow if ya are making the meetup in Redwood city (:>))
I was angry teen men don’t need an excuse. My Dad well he had relatives arrested on driving brown but he worked hard so he could get me a lawyer.
When we won he wasn’t mad at me anymore. The system worked money bought justice.
Now then wearing a suit showed he had money when the police man said he was going to drag him out of the car well my wearing a t-shirt and jeans was not asking for it anymore.
My rants about my tickets which ok many were deserved he understood.
The AM radio check like who steals AM radios suddenly was not an a mistake on the police’s part.
My emotion on that hmmm? the kind of rage that keeps you warm in -10 dergre weather.
The rest fine much I deserved but once unjust arrests happened every just arrest just pissed me off more, I had to leave thats all I can say. Failing that something would have happened.
A solar house diary what the pups think would be cool!
I was 16 -19 my Dad discussed it more as how we were getting me out of the mess, kids mess up seemed to be his reaction. In my late 20’s he picked me up from work and found out for himself what I said to be honest he had the same reactions I did as a teen.
Surprise about injustice it had happened to him I guess we both were idealistic types. In Chicago in his neighborhood a guy wearing a 3 piece suit would not get hassled without a warrant for his arrest.
Thanks for that eloquent answer. It gives me a better idea. Gotta tell you, I don’t know how I’d handle the rage.
Hey Nahant, I didn’t know Alice played Brahms! g’nite. Expecting to make it tomorrow if the back loosens up abit.
Look we had some cash so we got lawyers the police assumed that like most brown folk we had no cash no lawyers so we could be pushed around.
Even when we were convicted they were surprised the system worked. They thought brown your down.
But Green buys Whiteness ask O.J that seemed to blow their minds.
I think thats what pissed Whites off about O.J cash buys reasonable doubt and or a lighter sentence. O.J proved Whiteness is second to cash as far as the law is concerned.
America is a class based society that pretends to be racist. Now sure poor and the wrong color gets you arrested
but Cash is the factor for conviction.
My uncles, both now gone, always wore nice suits when they came to visit. It was a generational thing stemming from the Great Depression. Very sharp. They didn’t have a ton of money, but very happy and proud of their work.
I was eloquent s ? NIte good talk.
Ok maybe its not a race thing my Dad was drafted but did not go to Korea so close to the same time period.
IMO, the racists already hated him for marrying a white woman. Then, when he was arrested for murdering her, they were really pissed. Then when he got off, they were fuming.
I wonder how that white rage compares to black (or dark brown) rage?
yeah, I’d say you’re pretty damn quotable. g’nite Things.
mornin
Good morning, pups. Bob Herbert is off today, so it’s Collins and Blow. Mr. Herbert is off today. Ms. Collins says “Things Can Always Be Worse,” and that no matter what dreadful embarrassment your state is facing, you can always console yourself by remembering that you do not live in New Jersey. Mr. Blow, in “Welcome to the ‘Club’,” says for many black men, a negative, sometimes racially charged, encounter with a policeman is a far-too-common rite of passage.
Here they are.
The coffee and tea are ready, the cold drinks are in the fridge, and I’ve got French toast made with challah. I’ve got a humungous backlog of work staring at me, so I’m going to get started. Have a great day.
Pssst: It’s Jane’s birthday today!
Good morning everyone. Thanks for the heads up Audrey.
Good Morning eCAHN. :) You’re welcome. Wish there was a way to do something special for Jane on her birthday after she’s done so much for all of us.
Morning all, Enjoying the 60 degrees here
Mornin’ Mike. It’s cool here too. Just hanging out waiting for the MSNBC video from yesterday to load. Slow going.
Having trouble updating my profile. I no longer work at the job I have listed there, but can’t seem to make my deletion of that information stick.
I’m thinking birthday presents could be left here:

PUAC is up. It’s party time.
Thanks. That crossed my mind, and it’s a great thought, IMO. Just open to ideas for something more personal, I guess.
