Coffee and doughnuts for chat-starved Grotto-dwellers!
:donut:

This morning, the darkest, most flavorful French Roast imaginable. If you call it 'Freedom Roast', you'll get a boot in your ass!

Pink-glazed cake doughnuts with rainbow sprinkles. Yum!

How is everyone on the day Rush got flushed?

1. Hee...pink with sprinkles...
you know just how to treat your favorite girl. *smooch*

I am jubilant over the Rush thing.

BTW, I'm feeling much better today. :-) My co-workers decorated my cubicle at work for my birthday while I was out sick. There are ribbons and streamers and balloons. It's very festive. Plus we had cheesecake yesterday. Mmm...*drool*

How the hell are ya?

3. Fine as wine.
Even better, knowing you're feeling better, and the people at work appreciate you. I tell you, Vel, every day has it's rollercoaster ups and downs. Just the other day, it looked like the California recall was going to be defeated, now someone somewhere is grinding a 'Governor Schwarzenegger' desk nameplate. Then today, Rush Limpdick got his fat can canned! Yay!

8. It's a world gone mad
This has been such a weird week. Plame, the DU Rules thing, now all this crap with Rush. It's almost too much to process all at once. But it's certainly been fun.

Tell ya what...gimme a donut and we'll cuddle up under a blankie and giggle madly at the world.

True?

Thanks Aristus!

4. Well, wherever he hung out in the toilet bowl,
someone should have given us a courtesy flush years ago!

Have some coffee, StaggerLee. :donut:

Eating her rainbow sprinkles
As repubs cry "Rush!"

I find German sexy, plus
I like to polka.

40. But of course it's Oktoberfest time

Almost over BTW.
I can't stand Bavarian folklore (it is Germany's Texas), so I'll be happy when the season is over.

the worst Bogart impersonation ever. :-)

At least you didn't say "Here's paddlin' you kid." *snort*

19. That's okay. Bogart is not my specialty.
I do a killer Dustin Hoffman and Jack Nicholson, though. B-)

That was too funny. I just got water all over my desk. Warn a girl next time. :-)

I'm serious though. I do a very good Ross Perot. I'm from the same part of Texas. Someday, if you are a very good boy, I'll send you a sound file or something. :-)

26. Oooo, an illegal code!
All I wanted to do was post a pic of COORS LITE, GOPisEVIL's drink of choice.

Well, upon reflection, that pic should be illegal. :o

28. I have this strange desire to drink a Coors Light now...
Edited on Thu Oct-02-03 01:25 PM by GOPisEvil
...normally I can't stand that swill, but strangely, I want one now. Hmmmm

30. If I could write malicious code to make people do that...
...oh, man. Global domination in 7 days. The virus to end all viruses! All shall be a slave to ZenLefty and have Coors Lite forced upon them! All shall love me and despair!*

*This last bit I stole from Lord of the Rings. Sorry, I'm just not good at this evil overlord stuff, and I'm going to have to copy ideas for a while.

32. I don't mind the slave to ZenLefty part. That could be fun.
But Coors Light? That's just evil...

Oooooh...meeting time - joy, joy, joy!

34. No meetings while I'm overlord
That coors lite thing is pretty evil, though. Perhaps I can subjugate the masses by threatening to force coors lite on them. People will have the freedom to decide: obey me, or drink coors.

I'll use the freepers as guinea pigs to see if this plan works. Come to think of it, they are a lot like guinea pigs. :think:

41. Well, I do other stuff too - all equally boring and mind-numbing...
...but in the Shrub-conomy, at least I get the bills paid.

Work does suck though. I need to investigate work that does not suck, yet pays a living wage. It must be out there.
