Featuring a new video from Kittens Ablaze.
What’s on your mind tonight?
Zedders…!
Aloha, ES…!
Eureka!
This is a great crank-it-up track!
Evening all.
Could be a mac daddies theme song…)
CT…..
Aloha, dood…!
How’s Cali and the VA treating ya…? ;-)
I offered this to Suz . . . .
But I can’t wait no mo . . .
Steve Earle N Rodney Crowell, Guy Clark and a host of others . . .
Stay All Night!
Not the BEST of audio or vid, but lord, how YOUNG these boys were!!!! *G*
And some good dobro woik at the end!!! *G*
Dropping by before I go out to blow 7 inches of new snow out of our driveway and parking lot.
It is sad to do it, because it is some of the most beautiful 15 degree F snow I have ever seen. All the trees around our place have over a week’s worth of frost on their branches, so the snow is settling onto that. Huge, fat, slightly drooping birch, aspen and spruce branches, continuing to absorb a trickle of powdery snow.
Oh, it sounds so beautiful!
Don’t make me go all PC on that Mac daddy…! ;-)
So 75% of Americans want a legitimate PO and the Senate doesn’t even have to give an answer on why they refuse to use reconciliation (which the thugs regularly used) to achieve their supposed political objective?
Is even the appearance of democracy outmoded ?
Sounds lovely — but a chilly late nite task.
Sounds heavenly.
Perhaps so. When the media doesn’t even ask.
This machine is dying.
heavenly, except when there’s no wind I absorb a lot of CO from the briggs & stratton snowblower engine, which then gives me leg cramps in the middle of the night. I think I’ll put on my paint sprayer breather, as it isn’t very humid tonight. That helps.
Later, pups…
Pardon, ES, but that was some painful music.
Yup.. fun too.. But I think pain was part of the point.
Pretty amazing when virtually everyone under 35 gets all of their news from the internet or the Daily show. Murdoch and company must not see the necessity of attracting young voters, which means either the voting is illegitimate or they don’t expect young people to turn out, or most probably, both.
OR as ES astutely points out, the Machine is Already Dead.
This is the harsh reality…! 8-(
~~~Link repaired~~~
Eveniing tech support has remote control of my cursor repairing the other one. Bigbrother
Thanks Lurk…! *g*
I know exactly what you are going through.
*This machine is dying*
Ooh, this makes my blood boil…!
That might explain some of the influx of trolls…!
Hollwoodist.. lol
So the frightened person is a Hollywoodite?
Netiquette requires that you throw yourself humbly before the assembled and beg for forgiveness for quoting that piece of shit Brietbart.
My humble apologies…! ;-)
Holy Woody?
LOL!
Speaking of brilliant strategies… Take Away Unemployment Benefits…! While you’re at it… lets cut the minimum wage… That’ll cure what ails us…! ;-)
Harsh and not getting better very soon.
It’s nice when some still try to set the record straight. Thune will be the leading Thug candidate within 6 years.

Just shaking my head, emerson. Some days I’m relieved not to have offspring.
Cutting Social security may come first.
Yes, because when you work for tips, choosing between feeding your kids and filling your tank is a no-brainer.
I think that often, Sunny, When I look at my niece and nephews, I wonder what the world holds in store for them.
Yeah, that will get the economy moving!
Don’t talk to me.
I am so pissed off.
Hey, ES!
Fiddle-family string instruments, my fave! I think that’s even a viola!
Hey, Pups.
FunnyWheelieDiva
OK, you can talk to me.
But I am still so pissed off.
OK, why? Spill the beans.
Hey FWD..)
You’re not alone.
Hi, Morris,
*ducks and runs*
FWDiva
We are all in this together since we went global. 50% of biological species will be extinct…so there are some big fish to fry at the Global Warming/Climate Change conference in Copenhagen.
Denial is a river that runs through the Senate.
I saw the news today, oh boy!
One would presume that Shrub, Darth and Rummy won’t be visiting with the Queen any day soon…!
I offer temporary relief, Morris.

Don’t worry FD, I’m harmless.
I caught a few FDL pages. Turned my television off a week ago. About ready to use it for target practice.
Can’t we just eliminate the Senate? Whose idea were they anyway? I understand the House…sorta.
Hey, does that bring back memories.
Brought a smile to my face. Thanks.
That’s disappointing ;)
Wait! They still have some good old movies on.
Hey Funny!
I know.
Hey, Sunny
FWDiva
Well I am heading to the big city tomorrow… it’s been a few months.
Good night firedogs.
Jane’s getting some love at Democratic Underground tonight.
Have fun.
Aloha, ES…! Sleep tight…
Have a nice trip eureka and thanks for the hospitality.
We need to convene a constitutional convention to form a parlimentary government.
Reminds me:
Getting Better
‘night all.
Done blowing the snow out of my driveway. Have we won yet?
Time to catch a Trane.

nite Morris.
I agree BB. Tear down this facade and let’s start all over again. First article: No campaign funding nor lobbying.
Nite ES and Morris.
Ohhhh, thanks Margot. Just the thing.
Hey folks! I wrote Jane today with some thoughts on how to prep for the MSM when they pick up the Mrs. Lieberman story. I’d tell you all my thoughts but then the troll will pass it onto troll central. It’s probably stuff Jane knows but I did some legwork for her. The gist of it is to make sure to prep the experts they will call to comment (I dug up a few that the NY times uses) I also suggested she talk to the celebrities PR folks and give the some verbage that they can use if contacted. The celebrities PR people are smart but don’t do politics as much as we do.
But I think there is some thing we can do and that is to go on missions to clarify Janes problem with Mrs Lieberman.
As the MSM picks this up we can make sure that they don’t leave out details about Mrs. Liebermans past We can warm up on the right wing blogs and Fox News.
For verbage I was thinking something like “We support breast cancer research and we are disappointed in Koman for putting politics ahead of the health of women with breast cancer. I would think that Hadassah would voluntarily withdraw to avoid the appearance of impropriety. You know what they said about Caesar’s wife.” “Caesar’s wife must be above suspicion.”
Why is she getting paid at all?
We are getting better “it” isn’t getting better it is falling apart from greed. Just had a great service session from India for the HP laptop…that was way better than any customer service I have gotten.
One of the thing that came up in my research was how companies use non profits to cover their donations to pols.
JUST LAST WEEK there was an article on ethics in the New York Times. The story was on Corp Travel for Congress. By ERIC LIPTON and ERIC LICHTBLAU Considering that Hadassah is a “Global” ambassador and the whole story is about how non-profits hide the corporations this fits perfect as a follow up story.
Is their a limit on size of contribution to non-profits?
No limits. Nice method to passthrough money
I knew you were going to say that. *g*
Here it is

Hoping things look better in the morning. g’nite firedogs.
Charities are non-profits but not all non-profits are charities. Wiki has a couple of helpful articles here and here.
Outside of the political arena, I think one can donate as one wishes to a non-profit, but whether it is deductible depends on whether it is a qualified charity. That said, I am *totally unqualified* to venture an opinion.
That said, it’s my impression that charities live in mortal dread of losing their charitable status.
Ca ne marche plus.
