    C’mon, lurkers! You don’t have to be serious or silly or eloquent or nervous or worried that people will jump on your opinion. Pick something that made you think or mad or happy on the news tonight. Let’s talk about it, ok? I’m in the mood for a conversation. :) That said – I’m having a white Christmas this year! Yeah! :) )

  • incredulous72

    I’m a lurker and sometimey commenter. ;-) In other news, HOW ‘BOUT THAT BLAGOJEVICH?Is it me, or did he say exactly zilch during that press conference?

  • dontpanic23

    I think I’ve had 40 days and nights of drizzle. I’d welcome snow right now.Bring out yer lurkers. We rarely bite. Except for maybe Jane.

  • dontpanic23

    Incred, what I heard was “Me, me, mememe, I, me, lie, big lie, me, happy holidays”.

  • incredulous72

    Yeah DP. And alot of whine.So much so he should have been offered some cheese.

  • viccan

    Thanks for the invitation! I’ve been ‘lurking’ online since the election in order to ‘educate’ myself (also because I seemed unable to sign in the one time I tried). However, I have to say that the recent discussions on shoe throwing and Warren praying have really scared away a desire to participate. Anyways, I’ll continue to drop in in an effort to get a better feel (than that provided by mainstream media)for what is happening in Obama’s presidency.

  • incredulous72

    Is this thing on?

  • Kat

    Good evening all – lurkers and others! And DP – I don’t think Jane bites, but she will slap a pair of handcuffs on you.This column title by Arianna on the HuffPo today made me snicker at work: “Clint and Cheney: A Tale of Two Dicks.” Truer words….

  • Kat

    And yeah for Al Franken! Doggone it, people like him!(I know, I know…sorry)

  • http://www.hedonistperspective.typepad.com Alexander Rose

    Time to start drinking…

  • GItheJOE

    Welcome fellow lurkers! You miss one day around here and people automatically assume you had a lube accident in Jane’s basement.

  • CycloCynic

    BOB FOR THE HOLIDAYS!Fellow Cescans:I love Bob’s book One Nation Under Fear so much that I picked up a few extra copies for Christmas.If you’re willing to post a review of Bob’s book on Amazon.com, I’m willing to send you a free copy! Email me at toliveistosuffer@gmail.com.(PS: If you’re just after a free book and have no intention of writing a review, pretend. I’m gullible.)This ad was approved by Bob Cesca and paid for by The Committee to Elect Bob Cesca President.

  • http://willpen.wordpress.com willpen

    For some reason when I think of Al Franken as a Senator I can’t help but hear Stuart Smalley in my head….”"I’m good enough, I’m smart enough, and doggone it, people like me.”I know…. I’m couldn’t help myself. I love that movie….”I’m sorry”

  • GItheJOE

    Axel Rose, What are we drinking? The Bob Kool aid?

  • Kat

    “Open thread for documenting the constant variety of Friday night cable news hackery and other randomness.”I like how Bob isn’t even pretending that the PTT is going to be all about the cable news. He is well aware that at some point it is going to descend straight into the gutter…randomly. Such as also.

  • GItheJOE

    Does anyone know where the Minnesota recount is at tonight?

  • http://www.broadwaycarl.blogspot.com Broadway Carl

    Wow! What a douchebag that Blagojevich is. “I’m dying to answer these allegations.” “I will fight til my dying breath?” And quoting Kipling?! Do I smell suicide in the air?

  • Kat

    Cyclo is the queen of Cescan spam. :)

  • http://www.hedonistperspective.typepad.com Alexander Rose

    Tonight’s menu will consist of raspberry vodka and sprite…

  • http://www.hedonistperspective.typepad.com Alexander Rose

    @ GItheJOETonight’s menu will consist of raspberry vodka and sprite…

  • GItheJOE

    What are you saying Kat? I thought this was a judgment free zone. Am I the “straight into the gutter” commenter?

  • bjritz

    Welcome Lurkeroviches!Dive right in the water is warm and the swimmers a cheery bunch. I like ceu’s idea of letting a newly named lurker set the tone and topic. Let the fun begin.

  • Kat

    That sounds delicious, Alex (can we call you Alex? or do you prefer Alexander? or Joe’s Axl Rose? although I sincerely hope you don’t have strawberry blond braids)

  • GItheJOE

    Every time I hear the word Blagojevich I will take a drink of Vodka and Sprite. I will be drunk before KO is over.

  • http://www.hedonistperspective.typepad.com Alexander Rose

    Alex works, I’m not drunk enough for Axl yet (give it about an hour)And I rock the bald head…

  • ceu

    Joe – something like Franken up by 257. :) )But Coleman’s going back to the MN Supreme Court for something.And Levi Johnson’s mother was arrested for drug possession, delivering, and manufacturing. Six felony counts.Small town American values and such as also. (yes, it’s gossipy. Sue me)

  • GItheJOE

    Lurkers, the only reason the water is warm is because I peed in the pool. But please put anything random you want on here.

  • bjritz

    Kat – at least Cyclo doesn’t dispense cetacean spam!

  • Kat

    My burning question for the evening is what kind of animal crawled onto Blagojevich’s head and died? Is that one of Jane’s cats?And ceu, I know…I totally felt the same guilty pleasure when I read that story.

  • http://www.hedonistperspective.typepad.com Alexander Rose

    Gotta love the meth capital of the world…

  • GItheJOE

    The US economy is in a recession right?People are going to need some cheap homemade drugs that keep you up all night so the can work 3 jobs.That being said don’t be to hard on the Meth labs the American Dental Society approves of Meth use.Meth is the new moonshine. Maybe an entirely new sport will be created from this entrepreneurship like NASCAR>Thanks ceu.Sorry Alex

  • incredulous72

    The cabinet is bear and there’s six blasted inches of snow on the ground (and climbing where I live).Blago looks a little squirrely to me. Maybe he’s on the meth the Palin in-laws are sellin’.

  • ceu

    See? Viccan waded in and lived to tell about it.C’mon! Another brave lurker suggest a topic.Anyone giving or getting flame-broiled hamburger scented cologne for Christmas? Yum….my daughter, the vegan, is all up on that idea.

  • JG

    I really really really want Franken to win. I have read his books–loved his radio show. I still think it is so unfair that teh BBQ media has labeled him as a kook. He is a very thoughtful, smart guy.I just feel it’s not going to go his way–the media has already framed this as “Franken stealing votes” and I just think the canvassing board will cave somehow…I really hope I am wrong, but the last 8 years have made me a bit cynical.

  • Kat

    Joe…my gutter comment referred to myself. I built myself a lovely townhouse down here before the economy went to shit. I’m thinking of running for mayor actually.

  • incredulous72

    Pee in the pool; HA!I almost did that on myself when I heard about the Palin in-law.Doh!

  • GItheJOE

    Incred, due to the economic down turn it is acceptable to eat your dog/cat.

  • bjritz

    Welcome viccan if you are still here. We may not get to how the Obama Presidency feels tonight, but let’s start with how you feel tonight. How are you?

  • incredulous72

    GIJoe: Dammit! Don’t own one.

  • ceu

    Incred – where are you?Here in central CT we’ve got about 7 inches & a bit more on the way. Along with wind and temps on the low teens tonight.It’s beginning to look a lot like Christmas. (I hope someone gives me gloves)

  • PackyJ

    I would love to participate in the discussion this evening, but with two Christmas parties to attend, there are people on my list to drunkenly insult and lampshades that need to be worn on the head.

  • http://www.leestranahan.com Lee Stranahan

    Well, let’s see how open the thread is, dammit…I’m an award winning erotic photographer. On Fridays, I post a gallery of photos of six photos I’ve made. This is adult nekkid people NSFW stuff so honestly don’t click if you’re offended. That being said, it’s arty, too.http://intimatearts.com/12-19-08/

  • GItheJOE

    METH STORY VOLUME 1My last trip to the desert required that I live with a former METH addict. Over the course of the year he started telling me more and more about his addiction. Finally, he told me how to make the stuff with house hold chemicals…Incred, if KO says Blago enough I will be drunk enough to post the recipe on GDAB so everyone can have a part time job.

  • dontpanic23

    Jane bit me! Help!

  • PackyJ

    Yikes, Lee!You know how to fire up the conversation, I must say.

  • bjritz

    Aye, Packy, enjoy der partyin’and I hope you’ve a desie to bring ya home.I was out a doin that and such last weekend.

  • Kat

    As a side note – I checked out your blog, Alex. And I apologize for any implied insult from my cookie comment last night. I would imagine you appreciate many types of cookies as well. :)

  • http://www.hedonistperspective.typepad.com Alexander Rose

    Who would be offended by arty naked people?That’s pretty good stuff…

  • ceu

    Two, Pack? Well, now we know who’s hogging all the parties. (I think I’m a bit jealous)Be careful out there – some woman might get drunk & try to do lewd things to your body.

  • incredulous72

    CEU: I’m in: ‘THE BRONX’. Not south though.Joe: You keep drinkin’. I need a part-time job.Packy: Drinks and lampshades. I’m jealous. Have a blast!

  • http://www.leestranahan.com Lee Stranahan

    Packy, that ain’t all I know how to fire up! (Drum roll, Smitty…)

  • viccan

    There was some side discussion recently about presidential security. Can someone tell me,(as a foreigner) why is there so much information provided on the planned whereabouts of the PE? For example, when the PE’s inaugural train trip was announced, the stops were included. Isn’t this tantamount to asking for trouble? Are these train lines going to be secured well before January 17th and continuously until after his trip? Sometimes I actually don’t understand why so much information that could compromise safety need to be published. What’s the rationale behind this?

  • Kat

    Have fun Packy! Try not to get arrested this time, okay?

  • Kat

    That positively sounded like a challenge, Lee. :) I like ‘em though – I’d hang the last one.

  • GItheJOE

    Lee,Who is the little dude with the boobies?

  • http://www.broadwaycarl.blogspot.com Broadway Carl

    Nice pics, Lee. Was that on Jane’s basement steps?

  • http://www.hedonistperspective.typepad.com Alexander Rose

    @ If there was an implied insult, I missed it.I don’t take too much personally. : )But yeah… I like my cookies how I like my women… all kinds of shapes and colors.

  • PackyJ

    @ceu and Kat: We’ll see if I actually make the second party.My tendency lately is to have a beer and then go home, the cops are doing a major crackdown on DUI’s this time of year.Additionally, I’ve got stuff to do tomorrow, and want a clear head.By the way – did anyone notice that Sarah Palin’s future in-law (Levi Johnston’s momma) got busted on several felony drug counts?After all, Wasilla IS the Meth Capital of Alaska, and such as, you betcha.And also.

  • kansasdem

    Oh hell, I needed an excuse to drink tonight!Rick Warren on Dateline NBC in about 20 minutes!Actually I never need a reason, I’m just a sot!

  • Kat

    And DP…stop complaining. You know you like it.

  • viccan

    bjritz,I’m fine, now. I had to shovel a lot of snow before I could get into the driveway, but as I have warmed up and have no plans to go back outside tonight all is well.

  • kansasdem

    Lee,I don’t think Pastor Rick would approve, I OTOH highly approve!

  • GItheJOE

    Vicodine,That is a great fucking question. You got my paranoia all fired up now(nothing to do with Lee’s post). That is a whole lot of track to protect.Wait a fucking minute you said foreigner. Are you one of them pussy ass Europeans? Are you planning on hurting my President Elect?

  • ceu

    Viccan, he’s doing events at the stops so people need to know when he’s going to show up where.And he doesn’t want to live in a cocoon. Truth is , if some nutjob wants to harm him, they will do it whether his schedule is made public or not.And yes, I’m sure there will be tons of security – secret service guys walking the tracks, etc.On Carter’s inaugeration, he & his wife asked for the limo to be stopped near the beginning of the parade from the Capitol to the White House & they got out and walked the rest of the way. Secret Service freaked, but the Carters walked, nonetheless.Where are you, you foreigner?

  • http://peacebetweenpeople.blogspot.com OllyOllyO

    As a proud lurker, I’d have to disagree with an earlier commenter. I’ve really enjoyed the intense debates going on lately. I only wish I worked at a job that didn’t take up so much of my time during the day (and at night…fucking grading).Preaching to the choir, while safe and enjoyable, can get pretty boring. We’re really going to need something else to talk about come January 20th. I respect both Bob and Lee’s opinions. My only question is, what does Jumpy Pants think about all of this?And, did anyone else notice how hostile Blago’s lawyers were after his little made-for-an-after-school-special speech? WTF? These guys are even more arrogant than Blagy himself. I wonder how the pre-press conference pump up session went down. I imagine it involved lines of coke and some Master of the Puppets blaring in the background.

  • bjritz

    Viccan keep your shovel with you next to your keyboard you may need to plow the blog a time or two to get into the conversation. Or to clear people off the stairs to Jane’s basement.

  • ceu

    PackyJ – so you’re saying that the lampshade thing was just a tease? Well, damn…I was set to ask for pictures.[And now I'm in the mood for a g&t - unfortunately I have no g, no t, and no lime...]

  • GItheJOE

    Welcome OOO!Jumpypants is locked up in Jane’s basement. Actually she is the one in Lee’s photos.

  • PackyJ

    Ceu – We’ll see. After a beer or two, getting drunk and stupid may sound like a good idea.

  • ceu

    Well, yes, Pack. That’s usually the way it works – a few beers and stupid seems like fun (and it often is)Is pot still decriminalized in Alaska?

  • bjritz

    KO just said Thrilla in Wasilla! Is Sara palin around with Sherry?Anyway I’m sorry for that family, it’s a hard thing to be caught up in all that.

  • dontpanic23

    >>”You miss one day around here and people automatically assume you had a lube accident in Jane’s basement. “I heard you enjoyed it, Joe. I just escaped from there. I hid behind the biggest cat. That One. Slithered on out of there looking whiskery.

  • Kat

    I agree with you Olly. The debates can be really interesting, and even though I don’t always participate, they are almost always fun to read. And I like having the balance of Lee and Bob as well. I love Bob…he is who brought me here…but I enjoy the sparring between the two of them and how that fleshes out their arguments. I’ve missed JumpyPants’ point of view too.

  • http://www.hedonistperspective.typepad.com Alexander Rose

    The Wasilla clan needs a reality show on VH1…I’d drink to that…

  • PackyJ

    Ceu – An ounce or less is only a little more punishment than a traffic ticket… unless someone wants to make an example of you.Bjritz – It doesn’t matter if Sarah is buddies with her future in-law, does it?Judging someone else guilty by association is good enough for Sarah… so she needs to explain why she is “pallin’ around” with drug dealers and such!And also.

  • bjritz

    DP, Jane left the basement open last night for Gypsy n me “Don’t worry, I left the basement door open. You kids have fun! Don’t do anything I wouldn’t do! (Like let any more of my damn gimps out!)”We just fell asleep on the couch and I’m not sure if the gimps got out or not. How would I know?JoeTehGI may know from previous experience.

  • Kat

    Is Blago saying that PFizzy has the Force? That is fucking awesome. Did he get a cool lightsaber pen or something when he joined the DOJ?

  • PackyJ

    Goodnight, all.Be careful out there.

  • GItheJOE

    DP, is your son still living? I was out last night and don’t know if you performed a fatality in your living room.

  • Kat

    G’night Pack. Don’t do anything I wouldn’t do.

  • Holly

    Hello all,Another new…well not so new but regular lurker here. I wanted to let you all know that coming here helps to make me laugh, think or sometimes just feel normal because I get you people (well most of you…heh). Wow, seriously GDAB and all who congegate here….you guys rock!!!! That is all, carry onHolly

  • PackyJ

    That doesn’t leave much out, does it Kathleen?(Still imagining green eyes, and alabaster skin w/feckles.)

  • http://www.leestranahan.com Lee Stranahan

    FWIW, I think the debates are just a lil fractal slice of the larger debate among liberal / Democrats right now

  • GItheJOE

    Pack,Kat wasn’t specific enough with that so i will narrow it down for you. Don’t do Ted Haggard or anyone from Alaska.

  • bjritz

    Hey ho Hollyisious, welcome in to the GDABOT!Some congegate more than others and such, also….

  • Kat

    You guys think so little of me. I wouldn’t do Blagojevich either. His hair terrifies me.And welcome Holly! Don’t be afraid to jump in at any time!

  • ceu

    Night, Packy. Have fun!Hi, Holly. Don’t let that be all, ok? (have you been reading john Hodgman’s blog? “that is all” is how he ends every entry…)

  • jane

    Howdy all. I’ve been down in teh basement, drowning my sorrows, who let DP and ED out???, I can’t continue to let you kids borrow my “play” space if you can’t keep the door locked!Other news: If you haven’t seen Al Franken: God Spoke, get yer asses in front of yer youtoobs and WATCH.

  • viccan

    Not sure about the references to Jane’s basement so I wont touch that topic.’Foreigner’ as in your neighbour to the north who never ever paid attention to American politics before PE Obama came on the scene. I noticed your PE in January, became frustrated with MSM, stumbled onto the blogs in May and had a period of intense addiction May through November. Have been trying to break the addiction since November (not really good on computers/technology in general), but can’t seem to restrain myself from wanting to know what’s happening next.

  • Kat

    I love Nate Silver. I want a Nate/Rachel sandwich. Nate discussing the Franken/Coleman saga:”Coleman could ask for a re-vote — but the only agency with any sort of statutory authority to grant this is the Democratic-controlled U.S. Senate. Coleman would have better odds of filling Amy Poehler’s shoes on Saturday Night Live.”http://www.fivethirtyeight.com/

  • dontpanic23

    G’night, Packy.Hello, Holly. Didn’t you come in sometime during one of the convention live-bloggings? Or was that another Holly. Or I’m losing my mind along with other parts.Thanks, Beej. Had I known the door was open I wouldn’t be sneezing from all the cat hair.THEJoe, he’s on life support. He has to support his own life from here on out. I’ll give him shelter but he has to find his own oxygen and rides to court and such. And he has to start paying for the shelter again (along with the massive amount of food he can take in when I choose to buy it, which I haven’t done lately due to his not really trying to get another job). (I’m really sick of broccoli and rice, the food he hates most).

  • bjritz

    Lee, I didn’t comment on the heavier threads today but I truly enjoyed the banter. I’m glad the dialog is happening. I for one needed to hang with people who had opened their minds and hearts more than I had before I figured it out.

  • Kat

    Robert Reich on Rachel. :) Ohhh…and he came out fucking swinging!

  • Leigh

    Um…is it safe here? Are we all still angry or will you guys play with me?(Be careful. I can be very fragile sometimes).

  • jane

    Hey Katalicious- my money would be on Franken heavily if they actually held a runoff. (Okay, my $ was on Franken before, but teh Lizard People ran a hell of a campaign, and look, Bachmann managed to hold on to her seat…GO WATCH Al Franken: God Spoke! Or open it and watch it later. Or you will end up in mah basement…

  • ceu

    So..the execs in the auto companies have to give up their private jets & the workers have to have their wages reduced?? Seriously? Yeah – that sounds fair….not.

  • jane

    Hi, Leigh, you fantabulous, sexy, awesome, uberintelligent creature you.(Making up for teh snark last night.) Looooove you!

  • Kat

    Hmmm…a threat from Jane. That all depends…who is left in your basement? I might wanna go…

  • ceu

    And Paulson wants the rest of the TARP $$ released? After giving the first half to companies that didn’t need it (for the purpose of lending it out & then not doing it), and then not being able to account for it, he wants more hundreds of billions?I can’t get my head around that kind of …. arrogance.

  • http://www.leestranahan.com Lee Stranahan

    bjritz thanks

  • viccan

    GItheJ, ceu:Nothing to fear from me. It’s my own paranoia I’m trying to squish. To me PE Obama seems such an unusual politician that I WANT him to have the chance to put his philosophy into play. I have no wish to offend anyone, but the thought of American politics and assassinations is not too far from my mind, so I’ve been somewhat anxious.WHY do you guys have to take SOOOO LONG to choose your president and wait SOOOO LONG before installing him? Do you know that we have had TWO elections to choose a prime minister (not that we’ve done a good job – two minority governments)during the course of PE Obama’s campaign? Of course neither of these elections had any excitement, in my opinion.

  • jane

    Dammit, Kat, WATCH it! It is teh funny.Or I will withhold basement privileges from you.One day I will tell you kids about “Al Franken Day” in which I saw this movie (Al Franken: God Spoke) (and him speaking after), went to a book reading(and signing after), and also (!) got a parking ticket on UNC-CH campus. Oh, and I blew off work to do it.Contain your excitement.

  • http://www.hedonistperspective.typepad.com Alexander Rose

    Yeah… he wants more hundreds of billions of dollars and he wants it now.What’s the problem?

  • bjritz

    Around you Jane, it’s hard to contain excitement!

  • jane

    Hey viccan, if they aren’t dragging elections out more in the next few years over there, I’ll be amazed…they sneak it up on you. Teh teevee stations here make more money while it drags out, too. Keep us posted.

  • cminri

    Okay what is going on with the commercials on Keith and Rachel? So far, we’ve had to endure the Clapper, the ShamWow and now the effin Handy Switch?!? What happened to the Viagra and Aleve commercials? Are they trying to tell us something?

  • dontpanic23

    Al and God spoke and told me I’m knackered and I should sleep. I’ll watch installment 2-9 over the next 3 weeks (it IS damn good–and long).G’night Goddamn Awesome Cescans old and new. Stay away from the orange cat in the basement–he’s wearing “titty” whiteys.

  • Kat

    Delayed gratification? Well, at least that explain my recent sex life. Or my relationship with my UPS man. I hope Ann Curry took a shower after that interview.

  • GItheJOE

    Hello Holly,Vicodine, I bet you are getting a shit load of snow.Morning Jane. Sorry about the Gimp. When your gimps start calling me by my first name it is time to get out of the basement. Plus, I can’t be identified with that type of behavior since I am a military man which makes me an automatic social conservative.Rick Warren wants to have sex with women? What is going with Evangelical movement? I liked it more when they were homosexual homophobes.

  • jane

    Goddamn Paulson.He’s part of Bush’s administration; have we not learned our lessons yet??!?one!!? Don’t give these fuckers anything in a hurry…*sigh*

  • Kat

    G’night DP!

  • Alan4s

    Semi-lurker, but full-time reader here. My comment, before reading tonights thread:Stop with the whole Rick Warren discussion already. It’s exactly this kind of bickering amongst the center and left that will throw the whole country back to the radical right. Think about it.Since I don’t post here enough to make it evident, thanks to all the “regulars” here who make this such an enjoyable and thought-provoking blog to visit every day. Oh, and Bob too. And Lee.

  • GItheJOE

    Damn DP, you have a mind like a steal trap. Good night.

  • http://www.hedonistperspective.typepad.com Alexander Rose

    They still are homosexual homophobes…He’s probably just playing the part as usual.Getting warmed up… more raspberry vodka and sprite…

  • Kat

    I think we can call him Axl Rose now. You know, I still love “Patience.”

  • bjritz

    Night panic, see ya round. Be good.

  • GItheJOE

    Alan, comes out swinging!First rule of Fight Club, Don’t talk about Rick Warren or neo-cons will crap cages.Got it.

  • bjritz

    Welcome Alan4sure! Teh night thread is usually lighter dan teh day thread. So, jump in, whatcha drinkin? How much snow ya got? Cats or Dogs?

  • jane

    Oh Alan, the most seriouser it gets on teh Open Thread is asking “boxers/briefs/boxer-briefs/commando” or (god help you) not finding Rachel Maddow hot.Oh, and Alan, Axelander, Viccan, Willpen, Incred (I’ve seen you), even GI and BJ, the more urgent question is, “what serial killer do you look like?”Your entire future depends on this.

  • http://www.hedonistperspective.typepad.com Alexander Rose

    @ Yeah, it’s cool… by 10:30 I’ll by laughing hysterically at some shitty cable show.Patience is an awesome song and Appetite for Destruction is still epic after all these years…

  • Kat

    Good call Jane. I forgot about the serial killer question. VERY important.And send whoever doesn’t find Rachel hot down to the basement with me. I’ll straighten them out.

  • GItheJOE

    Don’t forget your sign, age, weight, telephone number, address or state, sexual preference(ALL is an acceptable answer)I would say I look like the BTK serial killer.

  • GItheJOE

    Rachel just said, “Geek out” I spilled my vodka on that one.

  • http://obamaproject.windonwater.net QueenTiye

    Cheers, Newbies! Holly, and viccan, and Alex (didn’t say hi yesterday)… Nice to have you all on board! :) QT

  • Kat

    Really? BTK? I wouldn’t say that….I may have to look again…And YES – astrological sign too. I drink too much red wine and I forget things. We need to start a database or something.

  • bjritz

    I made it through the part 1 of God Spoke – just great! Franken jujitsu! Thanks Janzy.

  • http://www.hedonistperspective.typepad.com Alexander Rose

    Rachel is fucking smoking…Then again, I’m a sucker for lesbians for some reason.Hmm… serial killers. I’m a Gacy guy myself. Smart guy and there’s a picture of him with a President’s wife (can’t remember which one) all the while he had the bodies’ of teenage boys stashed in his basement.Fucked up…

  • Holly

    Hi all I’m back! Thanks for the greetings BJ,Kat, Ceu,Dp,Packy and if I left anyone out I apologize. I would have been back sooner but I had to follow that link from teh Jane and got sucked in. Oh and I agree with Alan as well. You should never let that cretin (who shall not be named) cause discord on the GDAB….it’s too awesome!!!!

  • bjritz

    Here’s a twofer for ya – someone wanted our pictures and that made GItheJ famous – so here’s mine and my serial killa in one:Google Anatoly Onoprienko images and there you go – me!

  • jane

    Shit. Forgot to mention gender. Before the ineligible people flirt with you, please divulge yer gender.Or just ignore us silly, silly people.

  • jane

    Oh, and if you are a serial killer (BJ…) please let us know before you kill us and eat our brains.Kthanx!

  • bjritz

    QT, thanks for all your intelligent posts today on the serious side – lurv your mind!So, Vic where in Can are you?

    GI if that was you in the video I watched – you don’t look anything like BTK. So is the MO you connect with?

  • viccan

    Thanks, QT. I was just reading your arguments re Christians on the other thread. Trying to sort out my own beliefs when I see myself portrayed in the light of the comments people are sharing..GItheJ: Will gladly/eagerly share some of my snow with you. You don’t even have to ask twice.Yeah Jane, they sure did sneak the last one in. Of course, other than going to vote I paid no attention to what they were saying as it was right around the time of your presidential debates – the very FIRST ONES I’VE EVER LISTENED TO!!! Naturally, because I hadn’t been paying close attention to them, I was caught somewhat off guard by the suspension of the government due to the opposition threat of a no-confidence vote.It’s not at all amazing to me how the prime minister is now seeming more willing to listen – at the moment anyway.

  • ceu

    Alan’s in CT, right? Yeah, we got a whole New England contingent here tonight – can you tell we got snow??CM – they’re trying to sell stuff for Christmas to all those people who have to buy something and have no imagination. Don’t worry, the viagra & Aleve commercials will be back in time for New Year’s.

  • Alan4s

    In the order asked (I think):@bjritz: Jim Beam Black and water, on the rocks; 6 inches or so (snow you all, get your minds out of the gutter, geeesh!) but still coming down; 2 Chihuaua’s, a cat (it’s the wifes – I hate cats), and there’s a hamster here temporarily.@jane: briefs usually, commando when I wear jeans (levi 501) which is as often as possible; Rachel has a hot mind, I like her commentary; Andrew Jackson.@Joe, Kat, etc.: Leo.@jane (again): gender? really? you have to ask? then WTF was the boxer/briefs question about? huh?

  • GItheJOE

    gypsy, I got my defenseless ass handed to me last night on here.

  • Alan4s

    @ceu: Alan is in Massachusetts – quite similar weather today, as I understand it.

  • gypsysoul

    what is all this “real” talk about…i come looking for my nightly slum fest and there are respectable conversations slipping into my “happy place”…what up wit’ that yo?btw…i’m pregnant…it’s pretty much a toss up between githejoe…ritz…8 of jane’s gimps…and of course jane!

  • Kat

    Did Axl ever give up his astrological sign? And where are my fellow Scorpios tonight? I feel so alone. :(

  • viccan

    bjritz:Toronto (actually in Newmarket, but Toronto might be more familiar to you)

  • GItheJOE

    Sorry I was just checking to see if you guys really watched my video.Jane, that god spoke is awesome.Alan the average is 6 inches so your good of snow anyway.Vicodine, I live in Asscrack, PA so I got 6 inches of icy shit. I am good.

  • gypsysoul

    joe…you can think us later!

  • ceu

    It always amazes me when it snows how many people seem to think that traffic laws no longer apply. Stop signs? HA! Stopping at red lights? Surely you jest.I live on a corner on one of the main drags in town and I just saw 7 or 8 cars slow down for a red & then coast right on thru. (my last address was in the woods outside town, so this is rather new to me)(simple things and all that)

  • GItheJOE

    Holy Fuck Balls!!! Are you serious gypsy?

  • Kat

    Drink up Daddy(s)!

  • ceu

    Alan – ah…Mass. That counts, too. :) I’m wondering which will eat the hamster first 0 the chihuauas or the cat.Gypsy – really? Congratulations!

  • gypsysoul

    hehe…re:joe…THANK!

  • gypsysoul

    no…not knocked up…just a bad joke it seems! damn…i actually feel the hook around my neck on that one!

  • http://www.hedonistperspective.typepad.com Alexander Rose

    @ Kat:Aquarius…The strange, self-indulgent assholes. : )Or maybe that’s just me.Almost at drink number three… this night is going well.

  • GItheJOE

    Gypsy, it is ok. I thought you were kidding I just didn’t want to make an off color joke in case it wasn’t.

  • Alan4s

    @ceu: the dogs show the most interest in the hamster – the cat doesn’t seem to notice or care. But the hamster has a very high-tech polycarbonate, indestructable cage with multiple tubes, spinners, cubbyholes and other rodent pleasing contraptions. None of the other animals have a chance as long as the little rat stays in his cage.

  • viccan

    Just ran over to GottaLaff’s TPC blog and saw an entry about the secret service being sanctioned for racial bias. It’s worth looking at, .. I think.

  • gypsysoul

    my baby machine isn’t set to production yet…

  • bjritz

    Wow Gypsych, I almost bit on the bump – I thought you were a bit too flirty for your um…condition.

  • GItheJOE

    Alan, I feel your pain. I have two Chihuahuas and two chinchillas that are all pampered with every possible toy and treat. The motherfuckers still bark at my ass when I walk through the door.

  • Holly

    Night DP, greetings QT. Just my Luck everyone is off too bed.

  • ceu

    Gypsy – ok then! I thought we were going to have to pull out the pregnancy stories & scare the crap out of you.

  • incredulous72

    Must … study … for … final …You guys are like crack.I don’t remember the order, but here goes:I resemble no serial killers, but I look like the love child of Jimi Hendrix and Pam GrierCaptain Morgan’s and Ginger Ale (when it’s in cabinet)string bikiniScorpioGirl Crushin’ on Rachel

  • bjritz

    Chihuahuas and rodents sounds like The Soup! Where’s McHale?

  • gypsysoul

    ceu…for the future me that might want children..PLEASE DON’T! i reflect those stories like bush reflects facts!but i love to practice…

  • ceu

    I got another present todayWas pumping kerosene & some one decided to ask me questions. I turned around to the most beautiful man I’ve seen in a long time. And there I was in sweats, reeking of kerosene (I slopped a bit), with my hair looking like I don’t own a brush & looking generally disreputable. But it’s a memory I’ll treasure. :)

  • GItheJOE

    >>I thought you were a bit too flirty for your um…condition.This is some funny shit. I will tell every Prego I see that they aren’t pregnant but have a condition.Jane, please help gypsy with that non-breeder thing and every other teenage girl you come across for the rest of your life.

  • Kat

    Chris, you mentioned the Burger King cologne (and I feel your daughter’s pain – I’m a vegetarian). Have you seen the website? It’s disturbingly alluring. And The King actually has nice legs.http://www.firemeetsdesire.com/

  • Holly

    @ ViccanNewmarket?? No shit, Thunder Bay here.I AM CANADIAN!

  • ceu

    Ok, gypsy. But I do have some sweet ones (one of my kids weighed in at almost 12 lbs. I’ve gotten tons of mileage out of that one). I usually save them for my 20 year old daughter. Scare the crap out of her….

  • Kat

    Jimi & Pam? That must be some impressive hair. And I feel less alone.

  • viccan

    Rats, GItheJ, and I was so ready to share! Ah well, hopefully we’ll both get a break by tomorrow, assuming you’re in for the night.Actually, drivers up this way often make no allowance for icy, snowy road conditions unless they are forced to. Accident rates always go up when it snows heavily, despite the police or traffic announcers’ reminders.By the way, when is vacation time for the Obamas?

  • Kat

    12 pounds? Holy shit! My uterus just screamed at me to start cutting some tubes before some crazy shit like that ever happens to her. My kid was a tolerable 7 lbs. 2 ozs. and I still felt like I squeezed a watermelon out of a hose.

  • GItheJOE

    12 lbs. Holy mother of Christ! My god ceu are you OK yet?Incred, I am guessing and I shouldn’t that you are female with the string bikini thing.

  • gypsysoul

    ceu…that is when i get hit on the most…guys fill us in? sweaty? polished?i agree joe…”condition” was funny…like “gangrene”

  • GItheJOE

    Vicodine, never! Obama will never be allowed to go on vacation or the entire universe will come part.According to Bob, this will be the words of the MSM and Hannity.

  • bjritz

    Kat, that burger king guy is sorta creepy.I kept wondering if his head would melt.

  • jane

    Alan: You hate cats?Hmmmm. I may have to order some “special equipment” to deal with the likes of you.Also, Andrew Jackson is the serial killer you look like? Now I’m just confused.And did you see Incred at 10:21? Maybe you understand why I still ask about gender. (Fool me once….cain’t get fooled again…)

  • Alan4s

    Jimi was one of my idols. I grew up just south of Seattle, and went to high school there in the early 70′s. We used to go party at Jimi’s grave.I highly recommend his biography “Room Full of Mirrors” by Charles R. Cross.

  • GItheJOE

    Honestly,I like the just rolled out of bed look. I know you aren’t hiding anything and there won’t be any surprises(GIMPS). My opinion is biased due to the fact that I have been separated from women for a combined totally of 2 years and the female soldiers get referred to as Desert Queens.I saw something on a potter potty in kuwait that was hilarious. It said,”Live it up ladies, You will be ugly in a year.”

  • ceu

    I hadn’t seen it, Kat. And now I’m a bit wary of it….nice legs? That might be too much of a temptation to resist.Okay, that was unexpectedly creepy. “Nothing says romance like a boat”?? yeah, especially to someone who gets seasick in canoe. And the whipped cream….

  • Kat

    I know, I know, it was totally creepy. But I still kept clicking to see what popped up next. And the music…total porn music.Not that I know what porn music sounds like or anything. Jane told me about it.

  • gypsysoul

    gi…i watched the movie “stripes” this morning…thought about ya

  • GItheJOE

    I am lost help me.Something about a little man in a canoe?

  • viccan

    Well, hello there, Holly! How was the shovelling, or are you one of the lucky one who has a snowblower?P.S. I’m feeling really good as this is MY first time to actually have ‘conversations’ on a blog. I believe I’ve seen you here before, am I right?

  • http://www.hedonistperspective.typepad.com Alexander Rose

    Round three… everything is getting funnier by the minute..

  • gypsysoul

    i am confused as well…there are about 5 convos going on and i am in none of them it seems!who prefers string bikini? and is it filled with bananas or not?

  • GItheJOE

    If you want to really know RED(that is my Taylor Durdan personality when I am a combat zone) watch the movie “Platoon”. I am exactly like Sergeant Ellis(Willem Dofoe).

  • bjritz

    ceu, that guy is still smelling the kerosene and wishing he’d said something more memorable to you.Ladies, guys tend to get in trouble with women whom have the pregnant look. Is she or not…danger zone. We can never presume.

  • Alan4s

    @jane:maybe hate is too strong a word. I really do not like cats, but have tolerated them in my house for most of my life. I’m a much more of a dog person. Feel free to interpret that any way you like…When I go too long between haircuts, I look a lot like Andrew Jackson’s portrait on the $20 bill. One could argue whether he was a serial killer or not – I suspect a number of Seminole’s and Cherokee’s would, but he was a man of his times. He was an Indian fighter, but actually adopted orphans from his own campaigns, and was an advocate for enforcing treaty’s – regardless of who they benefitted. A complex guy, really.

  • Kat

    Incred wears string bikinis. And she’s a Scorpio (right the fuck on). She was pulling a Theo too.

  • ceu

    Yeah, I’m ok. And I didn’t squeeze him out – they cut me open & took him. The one before him was 10 lbs, 10 ozs. And he wasn’t actually 12 lbs – he was 11 lbs 12 ozs. (he is now 18 & wears size 34 pants, so he didn’t stay enormous) I had big babies. And I fell madly in love with each of them. :) With him, my due date was June 7th. I was Christmas shopping when I was 3 months pregnant & the cashier asked me if it was going to be a New Year’s baby. I started crying.Ah, memories…

  • GItheJOE

    gypsy, I haven’t got a conformation on whether or not the string bikini has a banana.Its banana, B-A-N-A-N-A! Now you are all suppose to call me a fag. That is what Chris Rock said.

  • Holly

    @ Viccan,Definitely snowblower lol. My first time chatting here as well But yes I did try once before during the convention. Ironically that night we lost power and had to watch it on my laptop.

  • gypsysoul

    red? there has to be a story behind that?

  • bjritz

    Hey vIccan blog – you’re doing great. I don’t always think of it as conversing. More like fishing. Throw it out there and see if someone bites. Depending on who’s biting it can be great!Eventually you’ll get a “heh”. All worth it.

  • Alan4s

    @Viccan and Holly:I just bought a new snow blower last night. The old one was 16 years old, and broke 5 or 6 times last winter. Too much snow here to not have a snow blower – shovels will kill you, if that’s all you’ve got.

  • Holly

    So has Waldo been back at all. I was so glad that he finally showed himself last night.I know it is strange but I was worried too.

  • incredulous72

    @ceu: Thanks for the 12 pounder story. I just took my pill …@GItheJoe and Jane: the comment to ceu should explain any unanswered questions. ;-) @Kat: the hair thing is overrated. Now those legs I wish I had. Andeverytime I see the Burger King King (HA!) I have a little chuckle. An ex-boyfriend was horrified by him. Brings back pleasant memories.Oh yeah Kat: “You are not alone …”@Alan: Jimi Rocks! An old boss of mine introduced me to Jimi’s music a loooooong while back.Voodoo Chile is my favorite.I hated it when they started using it for one of those damn car commercials.DAMMIT! I think it was GM too!Fuckers!

  • GItheJOE

    gypsy, watch my video again and look at my name plate on my uniform. But yes there are many stories. I really believe I have split personalities. I am something different in combat than when I am home. I have been home for 15 months now and I hate war, love peace and want more gun regulations.

  • ceu

    >>shovels will kill you, if that’s all you’ve got.This is why people have sons! Geesh.

  • gypsysoul

    gi-the-f’in-joe…kat has cleared up the nana-gate! kat you like sag’s or am i out of the running?ahhh…my glass of wine is starting to feel fine!

  • jane

    To whom it may concern:Heh.That is all.

  • Holly

    @ AlanCongrats on the purchase. I would have to leave the country or hibernate without one.

  • GItheJOE

    Incred, I need more evidence. You took a pill, so what. I saw a pregnant man on 23/6 yesterday and I am sure he/she had to take pills. I have to take pills for all types of things. Hell I took a pain pill when ceu told me she had a 12 pounder my theoretical vagina hurt. Ouch

  • bjritz

    Holly’s a snow blower! Yea!I’ve always had great times in Canada. Mostly over in Alberta and BC. Would be nice to curl up in front of a fire (sans BK on bear rug) in Chateau Lake Louise on a cold night like tonight.

  • ceu

    So how have we done at welcoming lurkers? You new guys feel welcome?More voices, more views, more ideas – it’s all good. :) And bjritz – just ’cause someone doesn’t bite doesn’t mean we’re not enjoying the comments.

  • viccan

    I thought he was going down to Hawaii before he starts his new job? Yeah, I know, all the appointing and media releases are just for fun. After all, he isn’t president yet!Githe, forget the MSM!! They really turned me off over the summer when I would listen to Obama’s entire speech, or watch his debates, then listen to their interpretations of small sections. When I realized that I was heading towards bursting blood vessels because I was yelling at the TV more and more and calling them liars, etc., I decided to find a new source of information. Clicking on sites from the Obama blog finally led me to 1 to 2 blogs that really informed me,while helping to stabilize my blood pressure. From one of these blogs I stumbled onto this one, and the rest is history. Of course, apart from running off at the mouth tonight I have always been a ‘lurker’; because I know so little about your politics and the players I feel I have nothing insightful to add. I come because a) I’m trying to understand your complicated government system and b) truthfully, Obama inspires me. I so want him to be successful!

  • Holly

    BJ, yes I be blowing the snow and the Rockies wold definitely be better than Ontario. Strange I have lived here my whole life and still hate winter…should I not have acclimated by now??

  • Kat

    I’ve never had a Sag, gypsy, but since you and Hot Joe are both Sags, I’d be willing to try you both.@ Viccan/BJ – for me this feels a lot like a stream-of-consciousness thing. I type what I’m thinking…someone may answer, or they may not. And then I respond to other people’s thoughts if I have something to add or ask. It’s really awesome and a great way to get to know people. I’m seriously gonna need to start a database though, because I get to know y’all half in the bag, and then I forget things.

  • gypsysoul

    i love ritzy and not just because i am having his baby…hehegi i am not sure i can handle your hot ass with the wine tingle going on in my bodyjane is teasing us tonight! give it to us or we release the gimps!

  • Kat

    Holly’s a blower? Has she been properly vetted?(sorry..old joke)

  • GItheJOE

    Vicodine,Everyone has something to add to politics. It is a belief system like religion at least for me. How did you only get into the political process with Obama? Didn’t Bush piss off the entire world especially Canada?

  • jane

    Kat, we need more cookies!Blastingcap, mooore miiiiilk!It’s getting late…we’re gonna lose these lurkers. She can’t hold out much longer, Mr.High Pockets.

  • bjritz

    Thanks ceu, I enjoy them all as well.Watching the blog roll by is like watching a school of fish next to a reef. They flick this way and that. Beauty and collective random movement, yet with a certain purpose they move in concert.Next thing ya know a barracuda comes by and drags one of them into Jane’s basement!

  • Holly

    @Ceu,Yes very welcoming here. It took much searching but I finally found a place where I actually wanted to chat. Some of the sites out there make me want to choke people and I think that long term could be dangerous to my health. I am not by nature an angry person.

  • incredulous72

    @GItheJoe: yeah, I saw that dude too. Bummer.My vajay-jay is NOT theoretical.I guess you’re gonna have to trust me.

  • ceu

    Viccan, I think he’s leaving for HI tomorrow or the day after. I heard that the memorial service for his grandmother is happening soon.

  • GItheJOE

    Sag? Define.gypsy, my last name is redmond that is were it comes from.

  • bjritz
  • GItheJOE

    You said,”vajay-jay” that is good enough. No self respecting hetero male would type that word.

  • Holly

    Kat, don’t you know that’s how nasty rumours get started? If by “blower” you mean subservient or brown nosing type no. If however you mean….oops nevermind.

  • Kat

    I didn’t make cookies tonight – I still have some carrot cake cookies left. And I’m making cheesecake tomorrow. Will that suffice?And Waldo is a total fucking cocktease. Pussytease too. Perhaps even a hermaphroditetease too.

  • Holly

    So Waldo is a tease apparently…is that why he is hiding?

  • GItheJOE

    All right, I seen the GDAB has become “R-rated” lets keep it going. Balls Cock

  • viccan

    Being welcomed is a great feeling – thank you all! [On Monday I'll be able to brag to my colleagues that I'm a little less computer challenged because I actually participated for a while. They made great fun of me when I confessed that I was spending hours lurking on the blogs during the final months of the campaign. They found out because I hadn't been going to the lunchroom anymore as lunchtime was the only time at work I was free to go online.]

  • gypsysoul

  • Alan4s

    Mmmmmmm, cheescake…..

  • Holly

    This is the R rated portion of the evening and I suppose it is a tradition…. so Blowjob Go!!!

  • Kat

    Holly, it’s a pretty safe bet that if you aren’t quite sure what I’m trying to say, it’s something sexual. It’s a horrible habit.

  • GItheJOE

    Vicodine,All blogs aren’t created equal but the GDAB is wonderful. Bob’s analysis is so fucking dead on that it is scary. I think I have said, “the NO Attacks Mythology” a hundred times since his book came out.

  • ceu

    >>I feel I have nothing insightful to add. From viccanYou needn’t feel that way here. Sometimes just asking a question will spark a conversation that produces many insights and interesting comments. Plus, as you know, we’re all happy to explain our gov’t system – such as it is – to whomever will listen!

  • gypsysoul

    ritz…i HATE that the “vagina for vp that i dare not speak of” RUINED that song for me!!and just who might i ask is the barracuda?

  • Alan4s

    BTW Kat, no disrespect, but you really need to rename those cookies. Maybe it’s the era when I grew up, but veggies and desert snacks just don’t really seem to go together. Broccoli-pudding anyone? How about Jelly-Lima-beans?

  • ceu

    Joe – are you and Redmond (the commenter here) …acquainted?

  • Holly

    @ Kat, I have no problem with the sexual innuendo…it makes life intereseting !!

  • viccan

    bjritz: So am I now a part time fisher-person?:-)Alan4: Can’t afford a snowblower yet… but am hoping.ceu – my real live snowblower actually helped. He was born at 875 grams (less than 2lbs) and 26 weeks. The palm of my hand covered his body in the early weeks. He spent 3 months in hospital. My mind boggles at 11+lbs.

  • Holly

    Note to self, first preview then post.

  • Kat

    Alan…dude, they are totally tasty. Basically carrot cake in cookie form with cream cheese frosting in the middle. Yumminess. You think of a better name and I’ll change it.Is this thread is ever rated PG? Or even PG-13 for that matter? Lee was showing us naked (artistic ones of course) pictures a little after 8!

  • bjritz

    gypSagittarian, you’re damn funny!Your link has “Their love of change and variety can bring a lot of different faces to the bedroom.”Lurkers all, good job tonight sparked us right up wit yer different faces in the blogroom.

  • gypsysoul

    ritz..i promise my sexual partners are less than the national deficit!

  • Holly

    I saw those pics actually Kat and while I am by no means an expert on these things I thought they were good. Carry on Lee, continue to create.

  • Kat

    >>Your link has “Their love of change and variety can bring a lot of different faces to the bedroom.”My mama would have a lot to say about that. And then send me to my room for a year.

  • Holly

    Alex, congrats on a job well done!!!

  • Alan4s

    Yeah Kat, I know the carrot cake cookies are probably really tasty, but the name hides thier goodiness. How about “cream cheese frosting filled cookies” – now those I’d probably buy at the supermarket without reading the label too intently.

  • bjritz

    Viccan, I’d say full time you got the Janey “Heh”!SoulSista how about barrycuda?Kat it’s tastefully R rated.And GIthe you were doggin my Ukraine motha of anotha brotha – I think Onoprienko would kick your Witichitonian’s MFn ass!

  • bjritz

    Bad spellin on that last line – s/b wichitan. As in from Wichita there also and such

  • Kat

    Good on you, Axl.Third glass, Gypsy? You need to hang out with us a while longer. We’ll build your tolerance up. So now we’ve discovered you are a lightweight and a slut. Most excellent!

  • gypsysoul

    before you say anything ritz…not “girlfriend” my “girl” “friend”…my bi-heart belongs to rachel maddow

  • GItheJOE

    Ceu, me and that redmond commenter have the same parents.

  • viccan

    GIthe – Why have I only clued into politics with Obama?Politicians really, really turned me off! I hated that they can’t seem to deliver their prepared speech ‘naturally’. And, they all mostly seem insincere to me. I’m very much someone who likes to feel that a speaker is speaking to ME, and that he/she believes that I have half a brain. So when they fumble along I tune them out. I have always voted since I came of age, but I generally choose the least offensive candidate (liberal). Over here, Pierre Trudeau was a great favourite of mine. Your PE Obama touches me on lots of levels, and, I confess, that this is the first time I’ve ever felt jealous of you guys. Bush’s existence , I just did not acknowledge at all. Plus, the fact that your choice of president took so long meant that I would just wait till the end and find out who the winner was – only so that I would know the name.

  • Kat

    BJ…thanks for the clarification on our MPAA rating. So perhaps after 11 p.m. we become more NC-17 rated?

  • ceu

    viccan – my mind boggles at the less than 2 lbs. I’d have gone nuts if that had been my child. All I had to worry about was jaundice (and stork bites & angel kisses). You had a much bigger worry than I. And since that child was shoveling snow tonight, then I’m thinking you pulled it off! Well done! :)

  • http://www.hedonistperspective.typepad.com Alexander Rose

    @ Holly: I appreciate that…@ Gypsy: Drink up!@ Kat: Thanks as well… I have about, two more to go before I’m being wildly (but hilariously) inappropriate. Good times.

  • Kat

    Whoa. Hang on a sec. Hot Joe..you have a sibling? We require details. And possibly video.

  • bjritz

    Yep Gypsterina that’s a given here in the OT all Rach all the time.Well, peeps, I’m going to wind it down and head off to sleep.May you all be warm all night. May your covers stay on tight. Tomorrow launch a great day as you give your bright selves away. Share the joy!

    Ah, Pierre Trudeau.See – that was the difference between the US and Canada in the 70′s. Here, when the students demonstrated, Nixon sent in the National Guard. There, Trudeau married a coed.A whole different mindset…

    G’night BJ!

  • gypsysoul

    night ritz…

  • ceu

    ‘Night, BJR.

  • GItheJOE

    Yeah I have a brother. He is a journalist but he uses his powers for good instead of evil. He writes for a celebrity blog. I am not allowed to give the name out but I am sure most of you have been there(his orders not mine).

  • Kat

    Nevermind, Redmond must be either a sister or gay, since they just used the term “vajajay” over on the next thread. And we’ve already heard Joe’s qualifications on the use of that term. *sigh* So no hot brother. Drat.

  • Alan4s

    I’ll be hanging it up for the night too. Remember though, even if I don’t post here much in the future, that doesn’t mean I’m not reading along.Night’ all!

  • gypsysoul

    what day did the hotness known as githejoe post video?i feel the need of a repeat view!kitty kat when we gonna see you?

    Thanks everyone that played along tonight. It is great to bullshit on the GDAB. I love this place and would hunt Bob down if he stopped this site.

    Well guys, once again thanks for the welcome!I have to take my less-than-two-pounder son to his 3-hour swimming practice tomorrow morning (oops, this morning), so I think I had better go to bed. In the future I might just be able to ‘fish’ more and lurk less as a result of tonight’s experience.Good night, all.

  • Leigh

    Everyone drunk and passed out here too? Oh, I meant sleeping, sorry.

  • GItheJOE

    Fellow spawn! What is going on? I didn’t think you played in the PTT. This is my GQ brother with some impressive writing abilities. Apparently a lurker too.

  • jane

    “You said,”vajay-jay” that is good enough. No self respecting hetero male would type that word.Posted by: GItheJOE at December 19, 2008 11:11 PM”True dat.

  • Kat

    G’night Alan!When did he post that video? 3 days ago? I can’t remember – we probably should just bookmark it for future review.I guess I should figure out a way to post a pic somewhere that doesn’t show my full name and all that jazz. In the meantime, I’ll try to figure out which serial killer I look like.It’s all good, Redmond. We’re very accepting around here.

  • GItheJOE
  • Redmond

    GItheJOE, did I insult this Kat person’s mother? Because she apparently thinks my testicles are punching bags.

  • GItheJOE

    Red,No Kat is accepting to everything especially sexual preferences that is why she said that. No one is an ass that is still posting. I am sure T-Dog is out there waiting to piss one of us off.

  • gypsysoul

    ahhhhh i just got my joe fix

  • GItheJOE

    Thanks gypsy.

  • Kat

    Redmond…I believe the term is “teasing” or “giving shit.” We play differently in the PTT then in some of the other areas of the site. I think I called Gypsy a slut an hour ago too. But then again that is just a case of pot/kettle.

  • gypsysoul

    i want to tell you guys the funniest story but i can’t because of a posible “lurker”…DAMN!!!!i am trying to think of a way…trust me you guys would find it very amusing!

  • Redmond

    And I was trying to do some reverse ball-busting, which – obviously – failed miserably.Damn youse, Internet, and your inability to properly convey sarcasm!

  • Leigh

    Jane, you here? Whose testicles are punching bags? I need to know.Do we have more than one male here tonight?

  • GItheJOE

    See trolls only come out during the work day. Everyone that is dedicated to commenting on the PTT at 12:24am EST are good people.

  • Kat

    >>No Kat is accepting to everything especially sexual preferencesIndeed, Joe. Indeed.

  • Leigh

    gypsy, how warm is it down there in the Holy City? It’s weirdly warm in the Upstate. And that’s the reason I’ve now lost all my Christmas spirit.

  • Redmond

    Leigh – GI is a male, and I am too – though I used the term “vajayjay,” so it’s open to debate.

  • gypsysoul

    I think I called Gypsy a slut an hour ago too. But then again that is just a case of pot/kettle.Posted by: Kat at December 20, 2008 12:13 AMi took that shit as a complement coming from you kat…

  • Kat

    Excellent. I shall go back to questioning your sexuality based upon your use of girlie phrases. A much happier place to be!So, older or younger brother?

  • GItheJOE

    leigh, you not only have more than one male on tonight you have brothers.yes, sarcism is hard to type. I thought gypsy was pregnant for an hour until I remembered that I pulled out so that couldn’t of happen.

  • Leigh

    I know Joe’s quite the man, and the poor dude sticks around for “female bits” discussions too. He’s very brave, that guy.

  • ceu

    ‘Night, viccan. it’s been a pleasure.

  • Redmond

    Speaking of questionable gender orientation, I really should be writing about Brooke Hogan right now. But, damn, if you people aren’t an addicting bunch.

  • Kat

    Brave? The “poor dude” gets free lessons on how women think. And gets to hear us talk about sex at the same time. Joe should be paying us. Although he did post video, which might work as payment…

  • ceu

    Every time someone posts PTT, I see PIT – which is so appropriate, don’t you think?Do you know we’re at almost 300 posts here tonight? I’m blaming the snow.

  • jane

    mmmmm….brothers….

  • Redmond

    Video? It’s the one with horse isn’t it? The man knows what you ladies like.

  • Kat

    Brooke Hogan? We are way more interesting than her. And have better taste in clothing.I saw that Chris. We haven’t gotten this high since the elections, I think. I’m gonna have to blame it on the wine though, because it was 74 degrees here today.

  • GItheJOE

    Yes Kat. you figured me out. However, trying to hold an in depth conversation with 20 girls is something I can’t handle. I want to slap most of these girls at school. I would rather talk to my body parts but again there is that translation thing that throws me off, fucking spanish.

  • jane

    Ceu, it is because of El Nino.It is all the fault of El Nino.

  • Redmond

    Here’s a question: Does anybody’s TypeKey profile actually work? Mine erases itself every single day. No shit, I think I heard it laugh one time before telling the entire Interweb I’m an albino midget who loves roller derby. True story.

  • Kat

    There is video involving a horse? Joe…you’re holding out on us here.

  • gypsysoul

    WARM!!! it feels like 70 right now! i live on the isle of palms and the breeze from the ocean is kick ass right now!i will be in the mountains of nc for christmas…they are calling for snow…YES!

  • Redmond

    And, also, Kat, I’m pretty sure you ladies have vajayjay’s. As for Brooke, NASA’s looking into it.

  • http://obamaproject.windonwater.net QueenTiye

    Wow – everyone gone?Alan – I missed saying welcome out of lurkdom -even though I’m sure I’ve seen you here before. Looks like you and Bob have in common an appreciation for presidential history. :) I’m off to bed after having read through everything – sorry I missed everyone, but I paused for the ultimate in chick-flicks…yet another production of Pride and Prejudice. I try hard to avoid the Oxygen channel, as it does things to me. Anyhoo…Night! Talk again tomorrow! :) QT

  • jane

    Albino midget? Need video.

  • Kat

    You’ve got mail, Jane.

  • Kat

    G’night QT! I must say Oxygen does things to me too. Like make me want to hurl shoes at my teevee. Lifetime does too. Although Pride & Prejudice is good shit. Mr. Darcy is totally hot.

  • jane

    Isle of Palms…I was there a few Thanksgivings ago…oyster roast…mmmmmmmm.

  • gypsysoul

    holy shit…brothers, a horse video, plus tingling lady bits from wine!?!?!i can’t quit you guys!

  • jane

    …and yes, Kat. Hotttt. Like butter on a Southern sidewalk.

  • GItheJOE

    It wasn’t a horse it was a donkey and yes I told all of you I am in college and the Army. Do the math.

  • jane

    “Do the math.”So yeah, who’s older/younger…?

  • gypsysoul

    oysters with tequila and hot sauce! THE BEST!

  • Leigh

    Blimey, gypsy, it was 74 here in Greenville today. Ugh. We want some snow here!Redmond, an albino midget who likes roller derby? I think I saw you on that “Little People, Big World” show on TLC. You’re very talented, indeed.I miss Jane. Where’s Jane?

  • jane

    And Redmond, we ask this of all new GDAB soldiers, name, rank, serial killer?

  • Redmond

    So I did that math you suggested, and came up with:(Donkey + GItheJOE) * Jager = You probably didn’t call the next day.Me? I’m a gentleman, and would’ve left a carrot on the pillow. That’s how I roll.KAT, you get two guesses. Both times I’ll say “wrong” and then laugh at your misfortune. :D

  • GItheJOE

    Red is older. He is much smarter than I am because he didn’t sell his soul to the Army and went to college.My math came out to -13? I don’t know I got a “D” this semester in Trig.

  • jane

    What if Joe weren’t lying, and he really is a split personality?…

  • Kat

    I don’t do math, Joe. I was a history geek who read biographies about Elizabeth I in school and ignored all things math related. But, given what you’ve said about a donkey being involved, I don’t think I want to know.

  • gypsysoul

    i just got the shit scared out of me by my own hair…let’s see if i can tell this without sounding crazy…phone rang…ran to get it…bent to pick up ohone from table…hair (which is very long) wrapped around my body…i thought it was a snake…freaked out trying to get it off me…girlfriend spews wine EVERYWHERE!

  • Redmond

    Joe, we really gotta coordinate on these comments better.Signed,Personality #357

  • Kat

    I missed something…what am I guessing, Redmond? Are we still discussing your sexual preferences? I didn’t need two guesses for that one…

  • jane

    I do.

  • Kat

    Gypsy…sounds like you’ve reached a wonderful place of drunkeness.

  • Redmond

    Never mind, that was Jane who asked. I’m terrible with names but I never forget a face – which leaves absolutely screwed here. Damn!

  • GItheJOE

    Good recap Jane.Your right this is RED my alter ego. He is Brad Pitt and I am Edward Norton(not from American History X when he was huge but Incredible Hulk style).Am I awake now? I have drool on my shirt and don’t remember the last hour.

  • GItheJOE

    gypsy that is called an acid flashback or shrooms.

  • Redmond

    That’s not drool. Wow, how do I say this?Remember that donkey from a few posts back…

  • gypsysoul

    yeah mmy drunkeness is two sips away from i love yous…my friend says you’re hot gi..ferguson has email from someone in NC…JANE?!?!?!?

  • jane

    Is it hottt in here or is it just me…

  • Kat

    We can get confusing. At one point I thought both BJs were the same. But then again I get all flustered around anything with the name bj.But ceu is the smart one, Jane is the snarky concise one with a basement, dontpanic is the one with the shitty kid, gypsy is the non-pregnant former basement dweller, leigh is the dual blogger and I’m the one who wants to lay in a bath with Rachel Maddow.

  • gypsysoul

    kat you’re in nc too right?

  • Kat

    Yep, Gypsy. But I didn’t write Fergie.

  • GItheJOE

    The doctor said that it is normal to:http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=4pXfHLUlZf4after years in the desert without the touch of a woman.

  • Redmond

    Kat, here’s how I just read that last comment:Blah blah blah blah blah blah lay in a bath with Rachel Maddow.Which I think we should really talk about some more. I mean, c’mon, guys, this is a political site. So, not to go all Bill O’Reilly, would there be loofahs?

  • Leigh

    damn, I forgot about Craig…I do love him and his “sexy bits.”I’m so lost here tonight or I just need to drink more…who’s brad pitt again? The albino midget guy?(Actually any sort of midget reminds me of Tom Cruise–who is NOT cute or funny).

  • gypsysoul

    jane is f’in hot in here! i will be needing your basement filled with joe, joe’s bro, kat, leigh, and of course you, because we all crush on you hard core…

  • Leigh

    What did O’Reilly want to do with that loofah of his? I forgot. Jane has a bunch of those in her basement, though.

  • Kat

    Loofahs? Nah…a bit too, umm, scratchy. Besides, all she would need are my magical hands.I just love Craig’s accent. Miaow.

  • jane

    Fish-and-Gyps, I have written to Fergie (she admitted shamefully), but that weren’t me on the show, I’m sure.Kat is the gracious one. Blah blah blah Kat Rachel fur-lined stocks in a basement. Blah blah blah loofah.

  • gypsysoul

    my friend wants in on this…anyone up for some korean?

  • Leigh

    so we can all exfoliate in Jane’s basement then?

  • jane

    an yong ha se yeo!Oh…did you mean food?

  • Redmond

    I feel like we’re a bunch of crazy people at a bar except tomorrow morning the entire Interweb can read a transcript of our conversation.That said, whoever makes it this far down the comments, you have an incredible amount of free time – and have used it wisely. Don’t let anyone tell you otherwise. (Unless your my accountant. Jesus, man!)

  • Kat

    I love Korean. Yum.

  • Kat

    We are talking about food, right?

  • gypsysoul

    i want to do more than write ferg…try ride fergmy friend lets call her “chicken and waffles” is nagging me to audition with her for the amazing race…should we or would we be an embarrasment for the carolinas!?!?

  • GItheJOE

    I like kimchi and cucumber soju! Plus small hands make everything look bigger for Lee to take photos of.

  • jane

    Hoa jang shil?

  • Kat

    Hmmm…the Carolinas produced Jesse Helms and Lindsey Graham. I don’t think you have anything to worry about, Gyps.

  • GItheJOE

    Lindsay Graham is an embarrassment to south carolinians not you gypsy.

  • jane

    and Soooooooju! why don’t we have this beautiful thing in America (beyond California and such as)?

  • Redmond

    I probably could’ve live a full and productive life without just reading that.And, on that note, g’night, everyone! It’s been real.

  • gypsysoul

    LOL!!! No, I AM korean! “chicken and waffles” here, Ash says this is her Happy Place, I am glad you guys make her laugh, she is the best friend in the WORLD! You all would love herr!!!

  • GItheJOE

    That was to weird Kat.

  • Leigh

    Lindsey Graham is a total nit wit. He’s my senator and I went out and rounded up a bunch of Republicans during the election to vote against him, but he won anyway. (sigh)He reminds me of Droopy the Dog with those jowls of his.

  • Kat

    G’night Redmond. Good luck with the tranny.I’m headed to bed! See y’all next time. I want Italian then, okay? Preferably a 6’3″, non-English speaking, under-30 Italian.

  • Kat

    That was odd, GI. Great minds?

  • gypsysoul

    My mom smuggles Soju in to all 300 of us. Ask Ashley about my mom always having 4 buckets of kimchi going! LOL

  • GItheJOE

    Nite Bro. Don’t tell mom what goes on here or I will have to actually call her and explain myself which would cause the END TIMES prophecy to begin.

  • Leigh

    What did the Lindsy “And Such As” Graham do now besides breathe OUR air? That pisses me off.Damn, I’m back to wanting to kill that Casey Anthony bitch for killing her own daughter. I shouldn’t watch this show…

  • gypsysoul

    everyone going to bed?!?!NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!!!!!!!!!!!

  • jane

    Chix-and-Waffster! Howdy. Korean-American? Native Corean? In between?Curious, (Standard questions: How old? Married?)

  • GItheJOE

    gypsy, as an Irishman I can handle my liquor but that soju stuff is the devil. It doesn’t hit you until you stand uo and then fall down in the bathroom. What is in that shit crack or meth?

  • gypsysoul

    chicken and waffles is korean american…her family…”off the boat”…i can not communicate with them but they hit me in the head just the same!

  • GItheJOE

    Lindsay Graham is a Colonel in the Air Force and is also the chairman of the defense contracting board in the senate. This would be called a conflict of interests but not in the senate. Plus he voted against the new GI Bill and all other VA spending. Great and Honorable man like McCain.gypsy, sign, shoe size, mother’s maiden name, etc.

  • GItheJOE

    I am done for the night see ya.

  • gypsysoul

    i know gi…i can’t hang with that…her dad…(alcoholic) throws them back like water!

  • Leigh

    Joe, Lindsey Graham is the worst kind of dick.He actually thanked the “spirit of Jesse Helms” when he won re election. I wanted to throw something at my teevee, but I refrained…I knew he voted against the GI Bill, but you should see what a terribly sad state of affairs the VA is here in Upstate SC. Grrr…

  • gypsysoul

    bye all…we will toast one to the GDAB prime timers…GO!”chicken and waffles” says “korean OUT”

  • jane

    Soju.”What is in that shit crack or meth?”Definitely somethin’.Great straight or mixed, 21% alcohol (the stuff you get in teh 7-11s for $1.25 for a cold 12-ounce bottle!!) that nothing prevents you from drinking right then and there save tact.

  • dontpanic23

    oh SHIT I slept through the All Important Serial Killer Lookalike questionnaire. My life is over.And Joe, the titty’s out of the bag on what you look like. And it ain’t BTK. Maybe BLT…ooops, did I say that?Beej, the Anatoly guy is doing the Monk detective hand thing. What’s with that? And my mom always told me to watch for those forestry students.I have got to get over this sleep problem. I’m becoming a joke with my morning postscript to last night’s “PIT”.Ceu–I can sooo relate on the sweats/gorgeous guy/kerosene story. And 12 pounds? My uterus just fell out so scratch the festivities we had planned. God I missed a great night on here. So much confusion, so little time.Holly, I haven’t lost my mind. I thought you showed up during the convention because we discussed the fact that you disappeared right after you popped in.Redmond–perfect. I’ve been sitting here reading this since 4 am and my face is permanently frozen into a laugh rictus.

  • gypsysoul

    ohhh….my head!!!! only soju can rid me of this agony!girls take a look at non-ritz serial killa bj! he’s a hottie too! sorry for “outing” you bj! hehehttp://www.facebook.com/people/Bj-Dashin/1483505184and kitty kat you are smokin’ hot…i won’t “out” you on here though! i am totally bi-crushin on you!

  • dontpanic23

    Alrighty, Kat. Bring it on. I’ve seen your handsome little guy so my only mental image of you is a grown female with his face.Pssst, Gypsy: We do seem to have wandered into the room with the good looking guys. And they have brains! How cool is that.
