  • Origins

    So far baracks presidencyhas made the terrorists at gitmo the happiest scum bags on the planet. Way to go barack! Keeping those terrorists happy. That’s the main thing. It is sad that his first order is to make life easier for those that have tried to kill our soldiers. Fine, if he wants to close Gitmo but to do that as one of your first orders of business is very very troubling to me.And didn’t Al Gore help invent the internet? You’d think the WhiteHouse would be Wired!I guess you all don’t need any of those whitehouse emails, since there aren’t any….

  • theo

    jesus fuck, origins, you’d think you’d give up eventually.I’ve never understood the troll mindset – you’re not gonna change any minds and you know it, but you come in and piss everyone off and rain abuse on your own head anyway.

  • unorgins

    yeah – those fucking 15 year old kids throwing rocks at foreign soldiers in their country. They should be locked up for life without trials. Fuck the Constitution. Fuck The Geneva Conventions. Fuck having moral and human values. And fuck the voters who believed him when he said he’d shut it down.

  • unorgins

    Certainly if Al Gore had been in the WH (which would have happened without those damn activist judges) it would have been wired properly.

  • originista

    blah blah hate hate hate…blah blah…haters haters…blah blah…i love to incite them liberals..blah blah…origins…blah blah…here i go again….blah blah…i dont have an original thought in my head…blah blah..fucking blah

  • Alan4s

    Well one thing we can thank origins for – it got rid of the stupid slashes before it came back to be obnoxious again today. Good Job! \\\\\ (for old time sake) \\\!@

  • Origami

    Hey Origins!I can just feel the love emanating from your well-written, concise post.Just a bit of advice – English Composition and Logic 101 should be added to your academic schedule while you’re working on that doctorate degree (since you already have a masters).

    Since I am intelligent (read that as unamerican, one must be stupid to be allowed into the “Real American”™ club) enough to read European (I can read English and German), Australian, and New Zealand news websites and read American news websites that are not controlled by the media cartel, I am aware the the U.N. is discussing having Bush and Cheney arrested for War Crimes.President Obama needed to shut down Gitmo as quickly as possible or also be guilty of War Crimes.The Bush Regime’s blatant disregard of domestic and international law has been appalling to the entire world.The Reich Wingnuts need to pull their heads out of their asses and smell the corruption. Fortunately for the folks in D.C., the smell has moved back to Texas and Wyoming. The citizens of Texas and Wyoming won’t notice any difference anyway.If Obama and/or the U.N. do nothing, then Bush and/or Cheney will be arrested the moment they set foot in an E.U. nation. The French and Germans are very unhappy.I reserve the right to criticize criminals at all times. Whether they live in the White House or a ranch in Crawford, TX.

  • antiorigin

    Just so we’re clear, Al Gore was at the forefront of getting funding & backing for the internet. What he said was not that he’d invented it, but “During my service in the United States Congress, I took the initiative in creating the Internet.” And he did.Another example of you falling for what a talking head (or in the case of “Gore invented the internet”, the Bush campaign in 2000) said without bothering to do the research yourself.It’s not that hard, really. Just type a subject into the Google bar & start reading.

  • Origami

    antiorigin:Learning facts requires a certain amount of initiative, it’s far less work to regurgitate sputum expelled by the likes of the right wing hacks.And such as.

  • Kat

    Nicely said, SillyGit.

  • jane

    WHO LIKES PIE??? I loooove pumpkin pie. It’s really a shame that you only see it once a year, around Halloween. (Is pie supposed to be scary?)

  • SillyGit

    Cheney criticizing Bush for not pardoning Scooter.Does this make Cheney a bad American?

  • Origami

    Janerino – I like pecan pie best! Mmmmm.

  • jane

    Git, Cheney certainly is American Fail. But not for criticizing Booooosh.

  • Origami

    SillyGit:No. Cheney was already bad. American or otherwise.

  • antiorigin

    Pie?? Whipped cream, too?

  • jane

    Folded Paper, Bourbon Pecan Pie with chocolate chips or sauce is a little bit of heaven.

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

    Just saying…Cescans for Service….I’m not letting it go til we figure out something….

  • Kat

    Cheney IS a bad American. But not for the reason you gave. His bad American self goes something like this: torture, Halliburton, torture, Enron, torture, Plame, torture, also and such as….

  • antiorigin

    folded paper? They put paper in pie in the south? that’s a bit sad, actually.

  • emsique

    HUMAN RIGHTS ALERT FROM CHINA:Since the first of the year the Government here has shut down over 700 porn sites, denying people the basic human right of solo sex with a machine.Aiyah! What is a poor citizen of the PRC to do?

  • jane

    Not The Beginning, I have to say I loooooves me some whipped cream on pie. Also, have you ever added a bit of liqueur to whipped cream, such as Bailey’s? Absolutely divine.

  • Kat

    And I’m all about some dutch apple pie with that crumbly streusel topping stuff and vanilla ice cream. Happiness.

  • emsique

    MMM pecan pie makes me forget about porn oppression.

  • antiorigin

    creme de menthe in the whipped cream on chocolate cream pie….

  • Kat

    Or bourbon, Jane. Bourbon whipped cream is awesome with pumpkin pie or pumpkin cheesecake.

  • Origami

    Janeoyovich, as long as you Make The Pie Higher™.

  • antiorigin

    anything not improved by whipped cream is improved by butter.

  • emsique

    MMMMMM Kat, I was just thinking about bourbon and pumpkin pie! A little Jack Daniels in whipped cream—yessssss!

  • SillyGit

    /me points at jane and giggles…

  • jane

    Lee, may I suggest we focus our efforts on the promulgation of pie?

  • emsique

    They have good pie here. Everywhere I have been in the world, you can get good pie. And good beer. I think this is Germany’s great cultural contributions to humankind.

  • SillyGit

    Poor Lee. Trying to insert a topic of some gravity into the middle of a conversation about pie.

    I’d be willing to participate in a bake sale.

  • theo

    damn, now I want pie. thanks guys! I think I have some pumpkin cans…

  • https://www.coffeemakersetc.com/images/Paper_Filters.jpg Elvis the Dingeldein

    There’s pie?

  • Alan4s

    I love pie. Pumpkin is probably my favorite.

  • GItheScholar

    As a soon to be Damn Yankee. I loves me some PEE CAN pie. Yes, that is how we say it up here. I heard Bailey’s mentioned somewhere and it is the only way to start the day. Bailey’s should sue Folgers for the, “The Best Part of Waking Up” jingle. Because I live my life for Bailey’s in my coffee. If I had to listen to the conservative assholes at my school without my morning pick me up I would surely be in the Dean’s office for a violent offense. Oh, it helps with the morning commute too.

  • gypsysoul

    sweets aren’t really my thing, mainly because they don’t go with tequila, but i love me some “hold the cool whip, hit me with a scoop of vanilla” warm apple pie!

  • jane

    GI, it certainly takes the edge off the day, huh?

  • Kat

    In non-pie related news, Keith is freaking me the fuck out tonight. I may have to stop all blog related activities, cancel my MyFace, change my phone number, and crawl into a hole.

  • cminri

    Kat…we are now just crawling OUT of the hole…

  • theo

    hey, speaking of oral pleasures (gypsy, GI, that was just for you), I made the crab a few days ago and it was delicious!

  • Kat

    True enough, CM. True enough.

  • jane

    well, Theo, now we’re all really hungry…And Kat, tooooooo laaaaaaaate!

  • GItheScholar

    Theo, are you trying to send me to prison? For Fuck’s Sake turn on the TV Machine and watch KO. You are 17 and using adult language over the TUBES to a 27 year old man/boy. I have been fairly careful to at least not make this mistake on the TUBES. I don’t need anything else added to the NSA “GI” file of intertubes traffic to cougar porn sites and the occasional bashing of the former president. I am going to prison for a long time. At least it won’t be GITMO.

  • ceu

    speaking of food AND service, I will be delivering food to a food pantry tomorrow night (as I do every Friday night). Does that count?

  • GItheScholar

    Rachel just admitted she is afraid of BALLS. HA!!!!!

  • jane

    eeeeew close up of Gonzales. I will never want to have sex EVAAAAAR again…

  • jane

    seriously, have they perfected a Lady Viagra yet?

  • ceu
  • GItheScholar

    Jane, that would be absolutely unnecessary. Why in The Jesus’ name would you want to last longer? Every women on the planet would need like ten men to satisfy them every evening. (Count me in on the PTT female nightly pit crew)

  • jane

    Chris, that was KO’s cage match comment (!?!). One strange comment on a day full of strange comments.

  • veralynn

    “President Obama”, will that ever get old?

  • jane

    Just in case, Joe. Just in case. (In case I have to see Gonzales’ face one more fucking time, especially in close up.)

  • theo

    sorry, GI. I’ll behave.vera: no, no it won’t.

  • SillyGit

    At this URI is the Klein declaration:http://www.eff.org/cases/att/attachments/public-unredacted-klein-declarationKlein worked for AT&T in San Francisco. In this document he describes the optical fiber tapping facilities in one of the major AT&T backbone operations centers for the bay area.If you understand the technology (I am an electronics engineer and so I do), it becomes obvious that the NSA can eves-drop on anything they damn well please. As a realist, I immediately assumed that if they could, they would. Thus Tice’s revelations last night were no surprise to me. I knew that they could do it. All Tice confirmed for me was that they were doing it, which is no real surprise.Our troll friend mentioned Carnivore. The difference between this and Carnivore is that with Carnivore they got warrants from the FISA judge to listen to particular peoples’ communications. This is legal.What I/we have been yelling about here is WARRANTLESS WIRETAPPING, WHICH IS ILLEGAL AND UNCONSTITUTIONAL.Sorry for shouting but there is a huge difference here that our reich wing numbnuts don’t grok.If you can afford to, please donate to the EFF. I believe you can earmark your donation to support just warrentless wiretapping efforts. They have been fighting this battle without much help since the story first appeared in the New York Times.

  • Kat

    Joe, Lady Viagra wouldn’t be about lasting longer….And your sacrifice to the cause is noted and appreciated.

  • jane

    Rachel has a guest “scrubber”….that get you hot, Kat?Kat?

  • veralynn

    Am I completely nuts to think that Tenet, Myers and Bremer should all give their medals back?

  • GItheScholar

    So it is about a little man in a boat?

  • Kat

    Give me a second, Jane. I’m sorta occupied over here.

  • GItheScholar

    Vera,Medals don’t mean a damn thing. Yes they are shiny but if you attach them to a turd it is just a shiny turd. The Pres. Medal of Freedom is worthless. I am hoping President Obama will put the dignity and honor back into that shiny thing.

  • jane

    Oh, GI….the brain is a mighty sex organ.But don’t forget the little man in the boat either.

  • GItheScholar

    Affirmative, Admiral Jane!

  • veralynn

    Amen GI, amen.

  • jane

    Joe- are you ready for the Honorary Coast Guard?

  • Kat

    Hear, hear Jane!

  • GItheScholar

    I am an excellent swimmer. I can hold my breath for 3 minutes too. Aye, Aye Captain Jane.

  • jane

    Good boy, Joe. Goooooooood boy. (Although, breathing is allowed, and won’t count against you.)

  • jane

    Won’t someone say something high-minded? Red? anyone? (adding: if I’m waiting for Red to raise the level of discourse, well, shit in one hand

  • Kat

    Actually, breathing is recommended. While 3 minutes is impressive, it may not quite be long enough.

  • jane

    adding: )

  • Redmond

    Did someone say discourse?Wait, that word doesn’t summon me. Goddammit…

  • jane

    (o)(o)the boob signal!Wait, that prolly just looks like work to you, Red.

  • Redmond

    Jane, whatever you do for a living [insert here].

  • jane

    Look! Mika’s dad’s career gets a new shot! (since he won’t be on Morning Joe any time soon….)

  • jane

    Not telling.Okay, I help light up baby Jeebus. No, really. Sometimes I do.

  • theo

    I’ll say something high-minded: any lobbyist who pays 25,000 gets to “mingle” with the GOP at a winter retreat.

  • Redmond

    I support whatever that turns out to be. [Unless otherwise prohibited by law. Then, okay, still.]

  • ceu

    there’s this:WASHINGTON — The House expressed its bipartisan anger over a massive financial bailout package Thursday as the Obama administration undertook to assure lawmakers that it would spend the remaining money prudently and with greater oversight than the Bush administration.In a symbolic vote, the House voted to reject President Barack Obama’s request for the unspent $350 billion in a bailout fund for the financial sector. The 270-155 tally was a moot point because the Senate had refused to block the release of the money last week. That effectively made it available to the new administration.http://www.huffingtonpost.com/2009/01/22/house-rejects-obamas-requ_n_160081.htmlNOW they grow spines!

  • GItheScholar

    Sorry, I actually had to write a paper about Obama’s Inaugural Address. It was even better to read it. God I love that man. I am going to do something really stupid when I get to Afghanistan just to hopefully get a Medal of Honor and have President Obama touch me. Yes, Jane I will show him my ass wound if he asks.

  • ceu

    and in the “Are we there yet?” dep’t, there’s this:Former Minnesota Senator Norm Coleman seems to be making preparations for life after office, having signed up as a paid adviser to the Republican Jewish Coalition earlier this week.The move is one of the clearest indications to date that the St. Paul Republican is preparing for the possibility that he will lose his legal challenges for the state’s still vacant Senate seat. The position at the RJC is salaried — something he could not hold if he were still in office.http://www.huffingtonpost.com/2009/01/22/coleman-takes-new-job-loo_n_159972.html

    CESCANS FOR SERVICE

    AnnEm had a pretty terrific idea and while she’s posting it at the GDAB Facebook page, I thought I’d post it here.

    MICROFINANCING – BANKING FOR THE POOR

    Here is an article by Nicholas Kristof explaining his experience with being a solo banker for the poor.

    Excerpt:

    For those readers who ask me what they can do to help fight poverty, one option is to sit down at your computer and become a microfinancier.

    That’s what I did recently. From my laptop in New York, I lent $25 each to the owner of a TV repair shop in Afghanistan, a baker in Afghanistan, and a single mother running a clothing shop in the Dominican Republic. I did this through http://www.kiva.org, a Web site that provides information about entrepreneurs in poor countries — their photos, loan proposals and credit history — and allows people to make direct loans to them.

    For more info, go to the Kiva website. I don’t know if this is what Lee had in mind, but I think it’s a good starting point.

  • Kat

    Actually, I don’t have a problem with the last one, Chris. Too many blondes in the world, anyways.

  • Redmond

    Ceu, thanks for the news! Also, awesome post on your FB about Russel Tice.

  • ceu

    LOL and lord knows, we don’t want ‘em educated and such as. :)

  • theo

    Aw, GI, it’s not like it’s content wasn’t in the link.I honestly don’t think there should be a war crimes tribunal, at least not any time soon. There’s no statute of limitations on this shit, and we need to spend time and capital on fixing the economy, fixing our foreign policy, etc, etc, etc.

  • Mary In Omaha

    Gypsysoul…I am right there with you!!! Give me a scoop of vanilla ice cream on top of warm apple pie and I’m in Heaven!!!!

    GRRR!! Bob, check your email. I just spent a few precious minutes setting up a post on a possible Cescans For Service idea that CycloClinic tossed my way and now it’s stuck in the Awaiting Moderation Limbo Detention Room. I got sent to the Principal’s office!

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

    Nevermind. There it is.

  • ceu

    we do need prosecutions, theo. Not prosecuting not only signals tacit acceptance of the crimes but it sets precedents. This country needs to reaffirm its commitment to the Constitution, like a shower after romping in the mud.And we need them now, not years down the road, when people’s memories have faded and Americans’ notoriously short attention spans have moved on. It is as important as what the State Dept, Labor Dept, and Defense Dept (and all the others!) have to do.IMO.

  • jane

    What Chris said. Only, adding “fuck yeah.”

  • GItheScholar

    >>Americans’ notoriously short attention spans have moved on.Who was this George W. Bush fellow? I remember something about gay marriage being bad and liberals surrendering to the terrorist but other than that blank. Oh, shiny!

  • SillyGit

    /me hopes that jane will spare his rod.

  • theo

    yeah, ceu, this is one of those times when I look at both sides of an issue (prosecute now or prosecute later) and think that they’re both valid points. I might be wrong.In other news, a nurse in Albuquerque pulled out a woman’s IUD (which really fucking hurts) without her consent because she felt an IUD is a form of abortion.

  • Alan4s

    The most important reason to prosecute war crimes ASAP is to prevent those same sort of crimes from being committed against Americans. We need to show that those actions are NOT acceptable, even by our own. The longer we take to do that, the less argument we have against others who do that to us.

  • jane

    Ooh! the real Erin Brokovich on Rachel tomorrow. She’s been on the Tennessee Fucking Huge Oopsie.

    Just lookie what the rightwingers are up to now. They’re too damn funnyhttp://thepoliticalcarnival.blogspot.com/2009/01/update-fox-news-ten-reasons-why-obama.htmlFox News will be report tomorrow that there are at least ten valid reasons why Barack Obama is not really the President of the United States. “The liberal media was so in love with this guy,” said Bill O’Reilly, who will host the program, “that they missed at least ten facts that disqualify Obama from being president. “We will present the facts and then you can decide which reason is the best one to use to remove Obama from the White House,” O’Reilly said.(sorry, couldn’t help myself)

  • GItheScholar

    Theo, I just used the google and read the horrible story. If I were the victim I would have bit the nurse’s fingers off with my vagina teeth. Can we please pass some legislation that bans Pro-Life morons from anything to do with women?

  • ceu

    >>a nurse in Albuquerque pulled out a woman’s IUD (which really fucking hurts) without her consent because she felt an IUD is a form of abortion.Oh no. no. that sounds like a direct result of the whole right of conscience, thing. That’s got to go, tooGood that you’re listening to both sides of it, theo. at least we all agree that prosecutions need to take place at some point, right?

  • theo

    ceu: absolutely.

  • Mary In Omaha

    theo…I have to completely disagree with you here. The only way that we, as a country, can begin the climb back to the status and reputation we had prior to the George W. Bush administration is to reverse and acknowledge the horrific mistakes of the previous President of the U.S.I think we should address the aggregious and the horrific AS SOON AS POSSIBLE so that we can get back to the REAL moral issue here, which is, how do we deal with prisoners of war at GITMO. I thought we dealt with that issue after WWII when we signed on to the belief that the United Nations would be a recognized authority as pertains to World relations.When the U.S.(see G.W. Bush) ignored the UnitedNation’s objection to the invasion of Iraq, the U.S. gave up their rights to be a part of the world community. Under G.W.Bush, the U.S. became TERRORISTS!

  • GItheScholar

    Is thing still on? I finally get all my fucking work done and write something about vagina teeth and the thread dies.

  • Mary In Omaha

    I say this because under the Bush (dictatorship), the people of the United States, had NO SAY in the decisions of our country!!!If the President refuses to listen to public opinion polls (i.e. the wishes of the American people), then we are all subjected to the world view of OUR AMERICAN policies…Or, rather we are not heard, because OUR PRESIDENT DIDN’T HEAR US!!! HOW IS THAT DEMOCRACY????????STICK US ALL IN THE POND OF DICTATOR RULE, BECAUSE IF OUR VOICES AREN’T HEARD BY OUR LEADERS, THEN WE ARE NO BETTER THAN THE CITIZENS OF CUBA, OR OTHER COUNTRIES RULED BY DICTATORS!!!!

    6’4″? I’m 6’4″, Bob looks much, much shorter in that squishy little headshot he uses on HuffPo. I’d put him at maybe and inch and a half, at most!

  • jane

    Chris, we covered all this back when we discussed which serial killers people look like, and such as. You musta missed that day.

  • SillyGit

    Theo -Not to pile on, I agree with all of the reasons given for why we must prosecute. Chris gave the biggest and most obvious reasons.One more reason: The whole world is watching.The reputation of the U.S.A. will be determined by how we respond to the steaming pile left behind by the previous criminal administration. If we fail to clean up the mess, we will be outcasts.The world wrote off Bush as a Criminal Nutcase. Remarkably they felt sorry for America’s citizens since they knew we had no control over Chimp. They expect us to make things right. They expect us to punish him and his henchmen for violation of treaties and international law. We need to do this or lose their respect.The whole world is watching. We must make things right.

  • theo

    Mary: I never said I disagreed that they should be tried. I said that maybe it shouldn’t be our biggest priority right now. also, it seems like you’re a little new to blogging/commenting, so let me give you a tip: no one will take you seriously if you start freaking out with your caps lock.

  • jane

    Chinese astrological sign.I seem to remember you being there for the bra size conversation, and cringing that you’re *ahem* chronologically challenged.

  • Mary In Omaha

    Seriously??? SillyGit???? After all, our people, (the U.S. citizens from 1776-present day)always believed in and declared that we were NOT going to be controlled by, and governed by, a KING/DICTATOR. I am thinking that the WORLD isn’t so much worried about why we, the American citizens, can’t get our leaders to adhere to the rule of law, which is THE CONSTITUTION OF THE UNITED STATES OF AMERICA, and the world isn’t so forgiving.The citizens of America should be able to dictate the policies of our country and that simply didn’t happen under George W. Bush. What cannot be allowed at anytime in our future is the giving up of the American citizen’s rights to be heard!Nothing else compares to having a voice and being heard by our leaders!

    Oh!! That nurse pissed me off like you wouldn’t believe! She said, “Oopsie! I just gave it a little tug and out it came!”. She also said that the other clinic workers would joke that she had so many of these so-called “accidents”. Where in the name of Jeebus in a Snuggli was her supervisor?? Or the clinic manager?? This woman should have been suspended after the first “Oopsie!”.

    Adding: I’m sure that will go over well.

  • jane

    Also, heh.

  • theo

    Jane: Let’s do it!Mary: You’re not a fucking rebel, you mad capslocker you, you type like a thirteen year old wanna be punk rock girl ranting about why she’s slitting her wrists on myspace. and judging by your maturity level, you’d fit in better there.

  • SillyGit

    Mary – We agree and you can shout as much as you like.I also visit UK progressive blogs. They don’t understand why Clinton got impeached for getting blowjobs from someone who wasn’t Hillary, and yet no impeachment for Constitution Ignoring, Treaty Breaking, International Law breaking asshat Georgie.I didn’t know what to tell them. They know that Kucinich tried.In my experience, only Americans ignore the rest of the world. The rest of the world appears to be better informed about the U.S. than the typical U.S. citizen. Fox is not the entire problem.

  • AdyLeigh

    LMAO!…Colbert just told the head of the NAACP that it’s a wonderful time to be black…shows very good judgment.

  • veralynn

    theo, just added you as a friend

  • Mary In Omaha

    No need to get so testy jane… Your response to theo with “I don’t swing that way, Theo, but thanks!Not to mention the chronological issue.” led me to believe that you were not interested in him.My mistake. I guess I wasn’t aware that we are not allowed to have our own opinions on this blog.From now on, I promise to only agree with Theo and jane.

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

    Colbert is a bit too much for this NAACP guy to handle.

  • jane

    Goddamn right.

  • jane

    Second shift starting: Leigh, Carlos. Clock in, be sure to put your gloves on.

  • theo

    Mary: Let’s see, first, I’m female, and second, I’m seventeen. My age is often the butt of jokes around here, and Jane was pokin’ a little more light-hearted fun at me.Debate is welcomed here. For proof, scroll up slightly and watch me and ceu debate the timetable on which Obama should prosecute Bush and Cheney. Rudeness is not tolerated here and is considered a bitch-slappable offense.

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

    Mary, don’t worry about Jane and Theo. They’re just messing with you. Jane and I are the best of friends; we’re like this (crossing fingers) and she even tells me to fuck off on occasion. And I would if she’d untie my hands.On another note (since you’re new here), theo’s a she. At least she will be after her final operation.

  • jane

    Carl, Fuck Off.

  • gypsysoul

    jane check your messages…my jaw is on the floor!

  • veralynn

    have a wonderful second full day of the brave, new world we have helped create. Time for nitey nite

  • Mary In Omaha

    ohhh, sorry jane, I was only being SARCASTIC. I’m not really going to agree with you and theo because I have a BRAIN in my head and I have my OWN thoughts.

  • AdyLeigh

    That poor NAACP dude didn’t know what to think.Also, I took a pledge to always agree with Jane a long time ago. It was a good choice for me…

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

    Wow, now Mary’s just being rude. And she has a crush on the Shift and Caps Lock keys.

  • gypsysoul

    oh shit, i didn’t know there was a girl fight going on!i will play the brothers…”i need to know each article of clothing you ladies are wearing and please rip them off quickly”

  • jane

    Yeah, I *hate* people who think for themselves.

  • Mary In Omaha

    ItS TrUE… I have a CRUsh on capS locK AND SHift keYS.ACTUALLY, I have had the absolutely most shitty day in the last 14 years of teaching that I have ever had and I came to this blog exhausted tonight.I pray for a better day tomorrow.

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

    Yeah, Gyps! Pull up a chair and pass the popcorn. CATFIGHT!

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

    Chin up, Mary. The day is done. You’ll have a better one tomorrow. So… what are you wearing?

  • theo

    gyps: well done! you could be our redmond bros. replacement!

  • jane

    Mary, if I prayed, I’d be prayin’ for a better day for you too. I know you’re capable.

  • gypsysoul

    oooo jane comes out with a one two one two…it looks like mary is suffering from exhaustion….theo is waiting to be tagged

  • AdyLeigh

    Oh, awesome. A virtual catfight…Can I fight too? I love to do that kinda thing.

  • theo

    gyps: heh, I think I tagged Jane.

  • gypsysoul

    thanks theo…everybody knows it only takes one girl to equal two guys!

  • jane

    So: what am we wearing? I am wearing a black leather ensemble, with whalebone corset, and fuzzy pink mules.

  • Mary In Omaha

    No catfight here. I AM exhausted. I am just TOTALLY spent from the drama of the day. Please God, give me a better day tomorrow.

  • gypsysoul

    WAIT…what is this…adyleigh has joined the battle…do i see a chair i the ring?!

  • theo

    I’m wearing four and a half inch stilettos. no, really.

  • jane

    Sorry, Mar, this ain’t exactly Dr. Phil’s place.

  • gypsysoul

    jane did you see my message on the myfacespacebook

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

    Jane – sexy.Theo – Tell me when I can’t get arrested.

  • jane

    I did, Gyps. Some crazy shit, huh. Eh, he seems to enjoy egging them on.

  • jane

    Carl, right after your wife quits the force.

  • Mary In Omaha

    Not needing Dr.Phil here. Just trying to get through a shitty sucky day. Don’t want drama, just trying to get to the next right here, right now moment.Is that too much to ask for???

  • gypsysoul

    mary, i hope your day tomorrow is better. but if this keeps up i will be forced to stand with my girls wrong or right that’s what we do…unless there is jail time and then those bitches are on their own!

  • AdyLeigh

    I got here too late to fight. I’m bummed out now.Where is Dr. Phil’s place?

  • theo

    BC: November.

  • theo

    Mary: I also hope your day is better. However, I also hope that next time you come here, you’re a little more polite until you’ve built up a rapport with us. As a teen, I can understand how awful students can be, so I hope your Friday and weekend are better than today.

  • gypsysoul

    if i were really in a fight the two i would most NOT want to fight is jane and theo!

  • jane

    Oh, Gyps, I’m sure you could kick my wussy little ass.

  • gypsysoul

    i don’t know jane. i have a feeling you would take it gutter real quick! slash to the eye…bam, pole to the back…boink, head in the toilet…boom!

  • Mary In Omaha

    I didn’t know that jane and theo were the two who run this blog. I will keep that in mind in the future.I’m glad that I know it’s not Bob CESCA. I might have been a fool otherwise.Next time, I will be more careful. I promise.

  • gypsysoul

    okay mary, your pissy-ness is shining bright. i was being nice to you by staying out of it. do you really want to do this?!

  • theo

    Mary: Hmm, and my last post to you was polite. No more.Jane and I sure as fuck don’t run this blog, and the way you can tell is that you haven’t been banned yet. Plus, there aren’t pictures of gimps as the background.

  • jane

    Fuck sake Mary I don’t even run my own house.

  • theo

    man, Jane, how long ago did the cats take over?

  • jane

    Since they got here, Thesers. All along.We’ll be subscribing to Catellite TV soon.

  • SillyGit

    I’m rather fond of snow leopards.

  • jane

    I like pie!

  • theo

    Silly: those have got to be some of my favorite animals. too bad they’re dying out.

  • gypsysoul

    goodnight fighting duo…hehe, i am picturing you two in matching outfitsfight well, fight strong, fight amongst yourselves until a fight comes along.i just came up with that…i am so lyrically awesome…i should write beer jingles!

  • theo

    Jane, we’re gonna need to plan our matching troll-fighting outfits.

  • AdyLeigh

    So Mary, the teacher is fighting with Theo the teen?Jane, is it just me or…

  • SillyGit

    I was hoping that Ana Marie Cox would be on Rachel’s show tonight. No joy.Pie? I think the PTT has lapped itself.I have diabetes so the only pie I can safely eat is …

  • jane

    Oh Git, do go on…

  • theo

    Alright, ladies and gentlemen, I gotta go shower and try to sleep. Good night, all.

  • SillyGit

    Theo: Yes, they are very endangered. I think I heard that there are more of them in zoos than in the wild. Gorgeous animals.I also find mountain lions (pumas) rather excellent felines.I love cats in general.

  • emsique

    Good reasons to prosecute war crimes:At the end of WWII we prosecuted the hell out of Nazi bastards, including lower echelon. MacArthur let a lot of Japanese war criminals slide. The result?Germans have taught the world to make good pie and beer.Japan gave us mercury laced sushi and Karaoke!I will take pie and beer over sushi and Karaoke any day of the week!Take Cheney and Booosh to the woodshed along with all their minions and whack their peepees so that no one will dare to do the evil shit they have done for the last 8 years and we can celebrate with lots of good pie, beer, and music by professional musicians

  • GItheScholar

    I heard that. Bulletstopper is such a leftist term. I prefer IED magnetic or angel of death.

  • dontpanic23

    Holy Shit.

  • dontpanic23

    You just finished too, eh Joe? Sometimes I’m all day getting through last night, only to be too tired to join in the fun and start the cycle all over. Shit.
