So,,, when President Kerry is sworn in.. doesn't * have to be there?

[nini]

as the outgoing president?

Talk about some funny expressions that'll come from that face that day!

[yvr girl]

1. I don't know if it's a law but

it certainly is the tradition.

[SaveElmer]

2. John Adams and John Quincy Adams skipped town

John Adams left before Jefferson's inauguration, and John Quincy Adams left before Andrew Jackson's

[Kolesar]

3. Maybe he will pass out and puke

Failed in Iraq, but he will have finally outdone his father.

[maveric]

4. He'll skip for fear of the Marshall's taking him away in cuffs after

Kerry is sworn in.
Chimpy will probably be hiding in Saudi Arabia.

[flordehinojos]

5. He won't be the only one making faces... you can be sure that Poppy and

Mommy Bush (if they show up) will be crying a river over the loss of their son's power grab. Bab's has already said that she doesn't even want to think about the effects of a Bush loss in her household this time around.

[nini]

6. She's such a witch

It will be nice to see all of them put their tails between their legs and crawl away.

[Zomby Woof]

7. I will enjoy every freepin' minute of it!!!

Oh, but I don't dare dream this soon...

[nini]

8. I know to not get too cocky here.

I can dream can't I?????

:P

[Zomby Woof]

10. dream? cocky?

Depends on what cocky dream you are talking about. :evilgrin:

[nini]

12. Like I said.. I can dream can't I?

LOL.... after I posted that I laughed at the choice of words!

Maybe it was the morning upright thoughts still swirling in my head. :D

[Zomby Woof]

13. I have no upright thoughts

They are all pretty much in the gutter thoughts. :P

[nini]

14. for me... 9 years of Catholic school..

nuff said.... :P

[Zomby Woof]

16. now I DO feel you

I mean, feel FOR you... yeah.

On a more serious note, can I get you anything for your knee?

[nini]

17. I just got done icing it after my exercises.

so, in a bit I'm going to put something warm on it to relax the muscles deep down ya know.

I've been sleeping with the warm heating pad between my knees and night and that keeps me comfy -- LOL.

Your turn!

[Zomby Woof]

19. this is too easy

*suggests a natural warm pad for between the knees at night*

There. See? :P

[nini]

20. LOL

You know us Catholic school girls are so innocent and all. I'm thinking there are all kinds of therapy that will help alleviate muscle issues. But I was told to keep the heat in place for at least 30 minutes. :P

btw: I saw your post about living in Spain. Did you ever go to Portugal and see my people?

[Zomby Woof]

21. I wish I had!

I was a kid, 8-11 years old at the time, late 70's... we traveled regionally around southern Spain, but unfortunately I never made it to Portugal. My older sister did make a trip up there for a day with some friend of hers and her friend's family.

I have SEEN Portugal... when our plane from the states was on its way to land in Rota, it was just before sunrise, and Lisbon still had many of its city lights on. It was the first land we saw after an all night flight from Philadelphia. Quite pretty, and made the anticipation of the mystery and adventure ahead that much stronger.

Those 3 years had quite an influence on me.

Oh, and I enjoy a nice glass of port from time to time. If it's not from Portugal, it's not the real thing.

[nini]

22. good Port is the best.

I have a Portuguese friend that works on the cruise ships and when she comes to L.A. she brings me a bottle of port from home. Yummy.

Makes me warm and relaxed.. heck I'm gonna go downstairs and get me a bit of that stuff right now. :toast:

[Zomby Woof]

23. have some for me!

There's this great store in Seattle, called "The Spanish Table", and they sell all kinds of great food and drink items from the Iberian peninsula. Their port selection is the best I have ever seen in any U.S. store. They have 60-year old, 50-year old, and on down to the standard tawnys and rubys from the shelf.

I truly need to splurge on a vintage bottle the next time I am up there. Perhaps buy a vintage from my year of birth, lol.

[roguevalley]

9. Tradition. Some have been dicks about the changeover, like Eisenhower

was to Truman.

[JohnKleeb]

15. Eisenhower to Truman?

[FDRrocks]

24. You obviously haven't mastered the ability to reverse time.

:)

[LisaLynne]

11. Can't be there if you're in jail.

Just sayin'.

[nini]

18. wouldn't that be something.

I think Maveric had it right though.. he'll be in Saudi Arabia with his buddies.

[pdx_prog]

25. Nope....he will be packing up the car

for the drive back to Crawford......I just hope to God that pickles won't be driving!

[bearfan454]

26. He'll still be drunk

from the night before.
