Happy birthday, Tara!!

The party of NO is still unable to make a useful suggestion. They criticize everything the president is doing but offer absolutely no alternatives. They don’t seem to realize that they lost the election. They want us to continue doing what put us in this fucking mess. NO CHANGES. KEEP DOING WHAT WE WERE DOING. What a bunch of fuckwits.On 1600 just now some wrong wing douchebag congressman just said that Obama is not listening to them. Of course he’s not. They are doing replays of of the same old shite.My advice to the Republicanastycals: Get a leader, get a plan, then talk to us. Until then STFU we are tired of hearing your tired old shit.

Happy birthday, Tara. You have an awesome eye for vintage apparel!

Say Huzzah? You’re lucky she puts up with you. Take your leather mug back to the renfest, nerd!

Happy Birthday Tara!!!Thanks for letting Bob watch ten hours of MSM a day to amuse us.

Happy Birthday, Tara!(I wonder if there is a birthday probability thing at work, it’s my brother’s birthday, too.)

Happy Birthday Tara. And ElMystico, what do you have against RenFest nerds?

Happy Birthday, Tara!I love your vintage stuff.

Happy Birthday, Tara!

Happy to Tara and an early one to Jane. She will be vintage something tomorrow.

Howdy DP. I am vintage something every damn day. Can’t help it.

(I was poor when poor wasn’t cool.)

I meant you were old, Jane. But that’s an old pot/not-as-old kettle thing. Just wanted to poke you.

you’re a trend setter, Jane!Happy Birthday to Tara.

i will repeat my happy birthday to tara…”happy birthday tara”! now i will say birthdays seem to be a ptt killa’ as well.who’s gonna give some boobies and wang to the ptt god to get this thing rolling? i’m looking at you kat and gi! the ptt god doesn’t even mind if it’s tucked gi!

Welcome to the Bush depression.Shantytowns have made their first appearance on Tee Vee News.See the Bushvilles the Republicans have given us with their insane financial policies: At TPC They want us to continue their policies. They think we are stupid.How long will the MSM cover this up?

Did somebody say pot? Don’t let Joe near the bong water.

Booby Sign!(,)(,) It’s cold in here.

boobies? pot? what?

First: Happy Birthday Tara!Second: I am embarrassed to be living in a state where the veterinarian-governor and his wingnuttellans are actually considering legislation that defines embryos as humans, and restricts the use of embryos for fertility treatments only.”The sanctity of life [trumps] the quality of life”. Actual words from actual Georgia legislators.Oh. My. Gawwwid.I’m looking for a link to the story now.

Happy birthday, Tara! Herro, Amelican hippies. Pot? Make you want to rape and kill. Boobies? Smaller over here, and very nice.Just read something to brighten up my day, the number of “Non believers” in Merka has increased to 15%.That means only 85% of Merkans believe in JH Christ, Allah, Vishnu, Buddha, Giant Space Spaghetti Monster, Bal, Father Turtle, Gaiah, or Scientology.I only know one Chinese Christian here, and my wife refers to her as “Jesus Lady”. If you wanna get away from the the religious right, this is where you want to be.

Also, they only let you have one kid here. Abortion is required if you are pregnant with a second kid and:A: Are not a farmerB: Don’t have the big fat financial penalty.They take their overpopulation very seriously here.

Here’s the link to the story. Click my name.In fact, click me three times and I’ll wish I was at home again among rational beings.

Can we please rename the Department of Homeland Security to the Department of National Security?The Department of Homeland Security gives me the willies. Next it will be called the Ministry of Fatherland Security and the Ministry of Information will be kidnapping Mr. Buttle instead of Mr. Tuttle.When and why did we start with this Homeland shit. Until the neocons took over I don’t remember anyone referring to the U.S as the Homeland.Be a good little communist and keep your motherland secure.

Oh hell. That’s what I get for trying to be clever.http://gpbnews.blogspot.com/2009/03/senate-bill-bans-creating-or-destroying.html

Happy Birthday Tara! I just loved the crocheted anklets on your site. I’m sure Bob wears them well during the hottie tottie times!My first viewing of the boobies sign – thanks SRG.I saw a weird headline at the grocery tonight on some tabloid rag – something about Michelle Obama crying over some gay revelation about President Obama. Anything up with that or just another alien bat boy is supporting Octomom?

Git, it all fits into the whole NeoCon concept of nationalism being substituted for patriotism.I don’t mind America being referred to as “my homeland,” but calling it “The Homeland™” makes me think of jackboots and swastikas.

One people, one homeland, one Merka!

Bruno -Your link links to here.There are tons of unintended consequences to their planned legislation. I love it when ideologues do swan dives into very shallow pools. Charlie Darwin will be proud.If they make embryos human, then the fertility labs will have to keep leftover and unwanted embryos in deep freeze indefinitely since disposing of them will become murder. Shhhh. Don’t tell them.The fertility labs will close, and people will have to go out of state for those treatments. With any luck, citizens will replace these asshats with politicians that use their head for something other than a hood rack.

emsique – Isn’t “merka” some sort of pluralized version of “merkin?”

somewhere, GI is watching Maddow and having seizures of anger.

Bruno -TY I’ve read it now.Unintended consequence: Any companies doing stem cell research will leave the State of GA. Emory and Henry might move to St. Louis. Georgia Tech becomes the Rambling wreck of Greenville. South Carolina Tech has a nice ring to it. Of course, Sanford and his band of merry Klansmen may push through similar stupidity.This could lead to some interesting State’s Rights arguments.

outrageous, isn’t it, Fe?

CT will take them, Git. Rell is itching to get add’l research for UConn.

Fox News has Larry the Cable Guy giving political commentary.Seriously.

I love seeing what Obama is doing to overturn all the stem cell, birth control, abortion BS that Boooosh enacted. Now when is he going replace Geithner and Bernanke so he has half a chance to fix the economy so I can come home and smoke some pot?

More fun and games with idiotic legislation.AL passes law making application of Maxwell’s Equations illegal. All electrical power generation stops the moment the bill is signed. The entire state comes to a complete standstill. No radio. No television. No planes, trains, or automobile. No Refrigerators. No telephone. No running water since no pumps are working. That would be fun wouldn’t it.GA would be better served by a law outlawing stupidity so that their government can be replaced by people that can think instead of blindly following ideology.

And, with the combo of the definition of an embryo as human, and the restriction on “Georgia-made” embryos, it’s only a matter of time before some scientist working on a cure for spinal injuries or Parkinson’s is brought up on charges under the Mann Act.

Perhaps “Idiocracy” was more prophetic than I thought.

I’ve listened to the wrong wingers bitch and moan all day about the Stem Cell research policy change. The annoying thing is they have used debunked myths to criticize the policy change and the media drones have not questioned their statements. The media has given them unlimited license to tell flat out lies to the American people.If you’ve been listening, see if you find their arguments listed here: STEM CELLS: Myth vs. Fact at U. Mich. (Goddamned Wolverines).

I think we should let them secede now.

Idiocracy was spot on packy.

GAAAAAAAH!!!! You said “Spot on”!!! Yes I agree with Packy, but now I am becoming irrational, like John Boner, because you used that phrase, you spotted dick!Oh well at least only Git uses it here, not like 40% of Huffpo people, who seem to clamor over each other in an effort to say “spot on”. You can’t use the word “riot” in a Huffpo comment, but you can say “spot on” which causes my brain cells and nerve endings to riot!!!Breathe. OK, I’m better now.

Sorry M-Seek. Have some Tofu. That always works for me.

I stopped reading comments at HuffPo. Whoever their moderators are should be shuffled off to eastern Europe and not allowed back until they learn about freedom of speech.

We do eat the tofu here. It’s way better in Asian food. I hate the hippie practice of putting it in everything from lasagne to enchiladas.The best drug for me here (other than sex) is Changyu Brandy, which tastes sort like Christian Brothers, but is only about $2.50 for 750 ml. It’s only 10:45 in the morning here, though so I’ll stick to green tea.

mmmmmmmm spotted dick.

Huffpo is a great linkfest for good articles and I’m a big fan of Jason Linkins, but it’s banned here, I need to use TOR to bypass the dream police, and their fucking comment police really piss me off, too. Bunch of PC weenies. What are they afraid of? It’s really not that much different from the PRC in that regard. Fro Freedom!

>>GAAAAAAAH!!!! You said “Spot on”!!! Yes I agree with Packy, but now I am becoming irrational, like John Boner, because you used that phrase, you spotted dick!Oh well at least only Git uses it here, not like 40% of Huffpo people, who seem to clamor over each other in an effort to say “spot on”. You can’t use the word “riot” in a Huffpo comment, but you can say “spot on” which causes my brain cells and nerve endings to riot!!!Breathe. OK, I’m better now.Spot on!

There’s an English style pub in my old hometown and they have shepherd’s pie and spotted dick. My question is:WHERE’S THE FUCKING PIE?Just some yummy minced meat of some sort (shepherd?) with mashed potatoes on top served with bangers.

emsique, I have some Chinese liqueur here, everyone thinks it smells like feet. It’s a concensus. It’s called “Wuliangye” –and it has its own plastic case. (Would you were on FB, you could see a picture.)

Jane, GAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAH!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!This is starting to look like Huffpo!!!!!!!!Well, f[the comment was deleted due to the fact that our censors wet their panties and choked on their tofu]h!!!!!!OK, got that out of my system. Hi Jane!

Jane, they have some nasty assed booze here that tastes not only like feet, but feet mixed with Huffpo censors’ panties.

Things Chinese do well:Dumplings, noodles, beer, pastries, duck, all food, actually.Things they suck at:Making liquor, driving, honest government.

“Wuliangye” is the name, em-seek.

Real Shepherd’s pie is diced mutton. I make Shepherd’s pie with ground beef (it’s really called cottage pie when you use beef).I love Yorkshire pudding. But where’s the pudding?mmmmmmm Huffpo censors’ panties.

If you ever get to Portland ME, go to Gritty McDuff’s and have the Shepherd’s Pie. Have it with a pint of Black Fly Stout. Think of me. You will thank me.

>>>Things they suck at:Making liquorMy friend brought back some Chinese liquor from when he was out there doing some paleontology (like ya do) and he made me try it. I haven’t spoken to him since.

Emsers,Jason Linkins on twitter and the toobs.

I made a youtube video. Tell me, this is tasteless, right?I’m on a boat.

OK, that was tasteless. You told me to tell you.Actually, it made me LOL for real. Thanks!I’ll have to say that I agree with the comment at YouTube:”You are a sick demented son of a bitch.”He must know you.

Git–if anybody hears this morning stuff–I thought I was the only one confused by Yorkshire “pudding”. I was in a Dobbie’s Garden Center cafeteria-style eatery and pointed at what looked like roast beef and gravy. When asked if I wanted the thing that looks like it goes under the strawberries in a shortcake, I said no. I was later told by my son-in-law that it was what made it true Yorkshire Pudding–but he was vague on why. I still don’t get it.

Apparently Tara, Chuck Norris and myself all share the same B-Day…A trifecta of ass-kicking awesomeness!!!

Also Bob, your wife must also have to endure perhaps one of the most embarrassing of all historical events to occur on March 10th: On March 10th, 1977, astronomers discovered *gulp* rings around Uranus… Seriously…

DP -The Brits have name for foods that only make sense if you were born and raised there. There definition of pudding is much more complex than ours. How can you eat your pudding if you haven’t eaten your meat is not refering to a dessert pudding, it is refering to pastry pudding served with a meat dish such as Yorkshire pudding.All you never wanted to know about Yorkshire Pudding can be found here. The pastry things (the pudding) that look like shortcakes are more like a cross between pancakes and pie crust. Yummy.Another British entre that I am fond of is a cornish pastiePeople that say that British cuisine is boring probably haven’t tried much of it.

It’s Osama bin Ladens’ birthday too…
