I liked it because she had such a pretty smile on her face. :hi:

[SeattleGirl]

2. Hi Patsy! Howdy all!

What a cute picture of the lovely Doctor Rachel!! :loveya:

:hi:

[Patsy Stone]

7. Hey, SG!

So, how's the new job goin'? :toast:

[SeattleGirl]

9. Going well!

I've been to the plant where I'll actually be based yesterday and today, and am finding my way around. One thing I know -- I'll be BUSY!

:toast:

[Patsy Stone]

13. You should get a pedometer.

It sounds like a lot of walking; and if it is, it might be fun to see just how much walking you do in a day.

[SeattleGirl]

15. I do have one, but I need to find it.

Yesterday, I probably walked for a total of 3 to 3-1/2 hours.

[Patsy Stone]

28. You'll probably find

you'll never have to excercise again.

[SeattleGirl]

30. I wouldn't mind that at all.

I hate exercising! I love walking though.

Oh, and I live close enough that I could ride my bike to work! I need to get it tuned up, but once I do, off I go!

[RevCheesehead]

77. Can you wear your skates at work?

:evilgrin:

[WolverineDG]

4. One day closer to Friday!

:hi:

dg

[SeattleGirl]

5. Hi Wolvie!

:hi:

[Patsy Stone]

6. Amen, sister!

:hi:

[Berry Cool]

12. Hey, kids!

:hi: Rachel's news is good for what ails me.

[SeattleGirl]

14. Berry!!

How're you doing? :hi:

[Berry Cool]

24. Doin' OK, SG

:hi: How about you?

[SeattleGirl]

27. Doing well.

Just trying to wrap my brain around my new job.

[Berry Cool]

60. You'll do fine.

Those first few weeks are always a bit crazy.

Boy, the first few weeks of the job I have now...there was so much to remember...

[Patsy Stone]

16. She's snarkilicious this evening too.

:hi:

[Patsy Stone]

8. The Ad Wars have begun...

:boring: Can't it be November already?

[Patsy Stone]

11. Chuck Todd KOOS

Just not quite the same. :(

[Berry Cool]

17. You can sure say THAT again.

Oh well, Keith earned his vacation six times over. I admit, though, I'm sort of hoping he does at least a few shows from LA when he's out there later this month later this week????* to plug Countdown and FNIA to the TV critics again.

*Because Tim Goodman at the San Francisco Chronicle's blog, The Bastard Machine, informs me that the "Death March With Cocktails," aka the Television Critics Association summer press tour, is THIS WEEK. No wonder Keith's off. No wonder the Dan news--which he apparently wasn't even allowed to give on his show yesterday, lest he blow the press conference surprise--had to be released so quickly.

[Botany]

18. Rachel & Chuck Todd

Now that is news I can use.

Smart w/ some snark sauce too.

BTW Did i ever tell you that you are my Fav?

[bleever]

20. Is that Patsy?

Nice pic.

[Patsy Stone]

26. I call

that one my quiet, reflective look.

:hi:

[Patsy Stone]

25. Tell me

What did you have to Google to find that picture?

:hi:

[Patsy Stone]

19. She's right

He never did imagine that a Democratic Congress would allow him to cover up his crimes. I fully appreciate his surprise as I share it with him.

:mad:

[WolverineDG]

21. Ring! Ring! Clue phone for Leahy!

Cheney!!

dg

[Patsy Stone]

23. Jonathan Turley too!

It's an excellent night here at Countdown, but I'd rather not have to hear from him if it means they're gutting the Constitution again.

[WolverineDG]

29. People just don't get it, do they?

Only weirdos like us natter on about the Constitution this & the Constitution that. :eyes:

dg

[SeattleGirl]

31. I'm happy to be a Constitutional weirdo.

:)

[WolverineDG]

33. We nuts do tend to hang together don't we?

:hug:

dg

[SeattleGirl]

35. Yes, we do.

And frankly, I think we're pretty damned cool! :hug:

[Patsy Stone]

32. It's passe

Eclipsed by *'s "Me Decade".

[WolverineDG]

37. I was Constitutional

when it wasn't cool. :(

dg

[Botany]

38. They broke the f***ing law

End of story ..... the spying started in Feb. 2001 .... well before 9/11 so spare
me the "keep us safe" crap .....

Once again ...

The NSA was spying and the DoJ was the muscle w/ the U.S. attorneys as the "hit men"
in Karl Rove's doom's day political machine.

Those bastards need to be in jail and the spineless dems need to get the hell out of the
way and let somebody else who cares into power.

[SeattleGirl]

22. Jonathan!!!

:loveya: :loveya: :loveya:

[Berry Cool]

39. I wish he had less depressing and outrageous news to deliver to us.

I'm tired of having to post pictures of white flags and dogs rolling over and playing dead to illustrate Democratic Congressional action.

[Berry Cool]

42. "Yo, Harper!"?!?!?!?

Not even "Yo, Harper--eh?" ?!?!?!?!? :shrug:

[Patsy Stone]

44. There's the President.

Ay-ay-ay. :puke:

[Patsy Stone]

34. Rachel's gotten really good at Countdown.

:loveya:

[SeattleGirl]

36. Yes she has, and in a pretty short period of time.

Remember how nervous she was the first time she sat in for Keith?

[Patsy Stone]

40. Indeed

Glad it was a quick learning curve. But she's nothing if not smart.

[Berry Cool]

50. Yep, she's just taken to this job like a proverbial duck to water.

It's great that Keith has such a good sub.

BTW, if you didn't have a chance to listen to him on Dan's radio show today, he was on for about 15 minutes. You can go here:

http://sportsillustrated.cnn.com/danpatrick/streamingaudio/

and click on either the "listen," "subscribe" or "iTunes" buttons next to the Tuesday Hour 3 listing ("Keith Olbermann joins show; Jason Whitlock on Rush Limbaugh").

[WolverineDG]

41. Okay, someone tell me why

my new kitten just HAS to clamber around on top of the fridge & get his paws into stuff that doesn't concern him??? :eyes:


dg

[Patsy Stone]

43. Then please have them explain it to me.

Also, how do they know exactly which objects you don't want them to knock repeatedly to the floor from a modest height? :)

[WolverineDG]

58. Yikes! He found out how to get into the upper pantry

I heard him ratting around in there, opened the door & **crash** something fell out. After a moment of stunned silence, he looked at me as if to say "So, Ma, why did you kill that lightbulb?" :grr: He then supervised me while I cleaned up the mess. :eyes:

God, I love that little goober.

dg

[Berry Cool]

68. Knocking objects to the floor from a great height is standard cat amusement.

Especially when the cat is 1 to 1 and 1/2 years old. This is what is known as the "Terrible Twos" stage for cats. All objects in high places must be pushed to the edge of where they sit and then pushed off, as the cat looks curiously over the edge to watch the CRASH. Whatever possessions you most treasure and are the most fragile will be the "bombs" of choice.

[Patsy Stone]

72. Exactly

and I have double trouble. I spent last weekend putting little things in drawers all over the house. I'll never remember where they are.

[Berry Cool]

46. Answer:

He's a cat.

Everything concerns cats.

[ralps]

59. Hi WolverineDG, have you posted a photo of your ne kitten yet & Here's Crook

on top of a door in my apt.



:hi: :loveya: :hug: :pals: :woohoo:

:rofl:

Here's one I've posted before:



dg

[ralps]

71. Yep & awwww Cute Kitties!

:hi: :loveya: :hug: :pals: :woohoo:

[Berry Cool]

74. This would make a great LOLcat.

"I got mai balance beam ruteen down

[bleever]

76. LOL cat caption:

"Is that wig or squirl?

[Botany]

45. Yo Harper!

[Patsy Stone]

48. She's great

I actually hopw it goes all the way to the SCOTUS. :)

[SeattleGirl]

51. This is definitely a free speech issue.

What the freak are they so frightened of?

Oh, wait. They are frightened of the TRUTH!

[WolverineDG]

52. Yeah, don't fuck with librarians

they know the First Amendment backwards & forwards & can beat the crap out of you with one hand tied behind their backs on it too!

dg

[SeattleGirl]

56. And I hope she does!

:grr: :grr: :grr: :grr: :grr:

[Botany]

62. Hey I dated a librarian and yes she was a good ....

:rofl:

BTW that lady was an EDV .... no doubt!

[WolverineDG]

49. Um, so, how does one trespass on public property?

Hint: You can't.

Nazi asshats.

dg

[Patsy Stone]

53. "What's wrong with a sign that says McCain = Bush?"

"If they're Republicans who voted for Bush, why should they be so offended by a sign that says Bush = McCain or McCain = Bush?"

:rofl:

[Berry Cool]

55. Great answer

But, of course, THEY CAN'T HANDLE THE TRUTH!

[GigiMommy]

54. YAAAAAAAAAY!!!! Rachel two nights in a row!!! Hi Everybody!

:hi: Cassie says "HI"!:bounce:

[SeattleGirl]

57. Hi Gigi! Hi Cassie!

:hi:

[GigiMommy]

65. Hi SG!!!

:hi: My Bro's got me thinkin' about Seattle ever since he told me about the HUGE Nordstrom's store. (Love their SHOES!!!):loveya:

[SeattleGirl]

66. Oh yes! Nordies has the bestest shoe selection!

:bounce: :bounce:

[Berry Cool]

61. Yes indeedy, hi!!

:hi: If Cassie is around, she may enjoy hearing about the Obama girls.

But she'll probably get a bigger kick out of the High School Musical news.

I should tell my nieces to tune in.

[GigiMommy]

67. Hi Berry!!!

:hi: Both Hubby AND Cassie are watching!

[GigiMommy]

69. Hubby thinks that's NOT Rachel's ORIGINAL hair color!?!

:shrug: Wants to know who agrees?

[SeattleGirl]

70. The Obama girls are so adorable!

:loveya: :loveya: :loveya:

[Berry Cool]

75. Too cute.

Much cuter than Karl "What Subpoena?" Rove.

He made me have to turn Dan Abrams off.

[bleever]

73. I found a pic of Maria Manounos dressed as a mummy.

Couldn't afford the whole costume, apparently.
