[SeattleGirl]

3. Hi Berry! Howdy everyone!

I missed the first few minutes of the show. Gramm is GONE???

:hi:

[WolverineDG]

5. Gone, as in Gone With The Wind

although I suspect he is also Gone To Texas. Dammit. We don't want him back.

:grr:

dg

[SeattleGirl]

14. My sympathies.

[Berry Cool]

8. Heya SG!

:hi: Yeah, Keith could barely wait to get on with the breaking news.

[SeattleGirl]

15. Well, apparently I didn't miss the story, as it sounds like he's going

to talk more about it.

[Patsy Stone]

20. The bright red banner just popped up on CNN

Freshly breaking news. :hi:, SG!

[SeattleGirl]

25. Hi Patsy!

Woohoo! Fresh news! :hi:

:hi:

[ralps]

17. Hi SeattleGirl!!

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

[Berry Cool]

12. Hi ralps!

:hi: What a bunch of flip-flopping gobbledygook from the White House.

"A time horizon" for getting out of Iraq? Guess that's Newspeak for "deadline."

[ralps]

24. Yep BerryBush. Crooksandliars.com has a thread about Condi & Bush's flip-flops

on Iran! :hi: :loveya: :hug: :pals: :woohoo:

[GigiMommy]

13. Hi Ralps!!!

:hi: It's "HULA" Kitty!

[ralps]

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

[GigiMommy]

9. Hi Everybody!!!

:hi: Listening from the kitchen. Cassie's got the TV (watching "Catscratch").

[SeattleGirl]

11. Hi Gigi and Cassie!

:hi: :bounce: :bounce: :bounce: :bounce: :bounce:

[GigiMommy]

21. Hi SG!!!!

:hi: :bounce: Whoo hoo, the weekend's here!

[Berry Cool]

16. Has she got Catscratch fever?

:hi: Better watch for that. You don't want a Ted Nugent fan on your hands.

[GigiMommy]

33. Oh HECK NO!!!!!!!!

But instead we got THIS!

[Berry Cool]

44. Too bad!

The cartoon actually sounds good, if I can ever catch it when Keith's not on.

[Patsy Stone]

54. My DH's favorite cartoon these days.

One of the voices is Kevin McDonald.

:hi:, you two!

[GigiMommy]

70. Hi Patsy!!!

:hi: WOW! Gotta check the credits now. Didn't know!?!

[Patsy Stone]

73. Waffle, I think

[GigiMommy]

80. That's Cassie's FAVORITE!!!

"I LOVE WAFFLE!", says Cassie. :bounce: :loveya:

[Patsy Stone]

18. Nice photo!

:hi:, you all! I just walked in the door from a grueling day of work. Forgive me if I'm not that chatty until after the next commercial break.

:toast: TGIF!

[Berry Cool]

23. 'Sallright. Glad you could make it!

:hi: and :toast: to you too!

[WolverineDG]

29. Can I have a triple of whatever you're having?

I had a rotten day at work too. :(

:hi:

:toast:

dg

[Berry Cool]

30. Avec grand plaisir.

I know the feeling, trust me.

[Patsy Stone]

52. I have not even had a second

to make something to take the pain away. But I'll certainly pour you one when I do.

:toast: :hi:

[RevCheesehead]

31. Pull up a drink and sit down!

:hi:

[Patsy Stone]

75. Thank you kindly, ma'am.

I finally did just that. Drink poured, cats fed (again), sitting down. Ah...

Happy Friday! :toast:

[RevCheesehead]

22. Are the planets converging? Is Mercury in retrograde?

According to the DU front page, KKKarl is in deep doo-doo. :bounce::bounce:

AND - it's FRIDAY! :woohoo:

[WolverineDG]

26. CHEESY!!

Guess what I got a double-dose of this week in Off Topic????? Yup, you guessed it: Freshly made cheese curds!! :9

:hug: Check your PM. I need some spiritual counseling.

dg

[Berry Cool]

32. Isn't that funny? I do too!

The Rev might as well set up a secular confessional booth with a revolving door!

I still have to PM her about it!

[RevCheesehead]

34. Okie-dokey.

Cheese is best for what ails ya. And lots of beer, too. :hug:

[WolverineDG]

37. Ya, I don't think I can get a beer in Off Topic

dry county, among other things. :hug:

dg

[RevCheesehead]

42. Surely, there be bootleggers?

That's how the dry counties survive in North Carolina, anyways.

Here ya go:

[GigiMommy]

41. Pasta anyone!?!

:hi:

[RevCheesehead]

43. Oh, major YUMMMM!!!

:9 Thanks, Gigi!!! :hug:

[SeattleGirl]

27. Rev!!!

KKKarl in deep doodoo would be THE best news! :bounce: :bounce:

:hi: :hug:

[RevCheesehead]

35. Yes, it would!

I could use some really good news. Our whole country could! :hi: :hug:

[Berry Cool]

28. REV!!!!!

Girl!! :loveya: :hi:

:bounce: :bounce: Is KKKarl in doo-doo too?? Too much!! Hope Keith gets to mention that too!

We're going to see Gramm whine all the way out. Guess we should tell "The Chief Millstone" that his having to resign is all in his mind.

[Berry Cool]

38. Only bad things about the night so far:

Keith wearing the GSB suit and a graph-paper shirt.

But at least he's here, cracking jokes about Larry Craig's gas nozzle (as if they don't write themselves) and Billo the Clown claiming that everyone is cutting their gas consumption because HE SAID THEY SHOULD!!!!

OMG, is there no end to that man's delusions of grandeur, boys and girls??

[Patsy Stone]

58. That suit does nothing

for my mood. But Larry Craig? :rofl:

[RevCheesehead]

39. Boo-fucking-hoo.

Just like depression, it's a friggin' bio-chemical dependency, you asshole! :grr:

Why didn't mental health people jump all over him for dissin' depression?

Glad to see ya, Berry! :hi: :hug:

[Berry Cool]

48. Well, you know what the Savage Weiner says? Autism doesn't exist either.

"Autistic" kids are just brats with no father to force them to shape up and get in line.

Talk about WPITW. Talk about a guy who wears his own psychological issues on his sleeve and doesn't even know it.

[ralps]

36. Hi RevCheesehead, How are you all doing & Hi to Oreo, CC & lil' Keith!< or I guess

Big Keith now!! :hi: :loveya: :hug: :pals: :woohoo: :hug:

[Berry Cool]

40. Keith comes up with new euphemism for "threw him under the bus":

"Pushed him under the boat." :rofl:

[RevCheesehead]

45. Nah - that title belongs to "Our Keith."

You know, like "Our Hyacinth". :hi:

[ralps]

46. Ok RevCheesehead! Hugs

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

[RevCheesehead]

47. Oh, I forgot to add:

Oreo's been a pest all day. I even cleaned out the litterbox AND turned the A/C on again! I guess she wants treats... or maybe just a snuggle. :)

Hi to Crook! :hi:

[ralps]

50. Maybe Oreo wants some Super Duper Fancy Feast w/Garden Greens???

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

[RevCheesehead]

53. I think you're on to something!

Whoops! She just deleted my message! So I'd say yes, you're right. :)

[ralps]

57. Crook really seems to love it!!! He starts talking/complaining if I don't give it to

him! :hi: :loveya: :hug: :pals: :woohoo:

[RevCheesehead]

61. I just opened a white meat chicked and whipped egg souffle.

And Oreo is - - elsewhere. :eyes:

Damned cats. :P

[ralps]

64. Oh Dear!! maybe Oreo will be interested in it later!

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

[Berry Cool]

56. Nah. Know why Bella was screaming at me just a short while ago?

Because I was eating ice cream and she could SMELL the dairy...and was VERY upset not to be included!

She does the same when I eat vegetable lasagna with cream sauce!

[RevCheesehead]

63. CC is staring down my reheated lasagna even as we speak.

He is turning into Garfield. :scared:

[Berry Cool]

51. Keith's doing his Walter Cronkite again.

I love it when he does that.

[Patsy Stone]

60. Boo-kay residence...

Lady of the house speaking...

[Botany]

49. An EDV Marie Antoinette

Let them eat



Amother reason why Phil had to leave

http://www.democraticunderground.com/discuss/duboard.php?az=view_all&address=389x3642309

Cindy & Phil up in a tree ..... :rofl:

[RevCheesehead]

55. Lotsa pasta tonight!

As to the linkie,


EWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWW!!!! :puke:

[Botany]

59. did I ever tell you that you are my Fav?

Please don't tell the others.

Let them eat

[RevCheesehead]

65. If anything, it will bind them up.

Hiya, Cuddles! :hug:

[Berry Cool]

66. LOL. Guess old Phil just couldn't resist

a Truck Stop Woman with a bottomless supply of Bud. Not to mention pills.

[Berry Cool]

67. Thank you, Larry Hunter, for the KOOS

but I don't think Obama will incite any wrath with his "ill-advised" programs. I really don't think you need to worry.

[Patsy Stone]

62. More delicious lasagna!

Yum!

:hi:

[Botany]

68. Larry Hunter has the worst beard ever

Shave it off dude .... the 5 day drunk look is not that good

[Patsy Stone]

69. Agreed!

But I like what he had to say.

[SeattleGirl]

71. Me too, especially the part about him writing about what so many

of them are talking about behind closed doors.

[Berry Cool]

74. I don't want any of the movie superhero qualities Keith listed

except for being able to fly.

My movie wish is that I could listen to the music of ABBA...

...Wow! I get my wish!

[Patsy Stone]

78. Another actress who started on All My Children.

I don't remember the mediocre character's name, but she had a recurring role for a while (in soap time that could be a year or so in real life, I don't remember).

[Botany]

72. Some of what he had to say but .....

.... the man needs a mirror, a shave, and a bigger shirt. hard to follow what he was saying
when he looked like crap ....

BTW many republicans are flipping this year

[ralps]

76. Today's worst person in the world is Bud Day! "The Muslims have said 'kneel or

we'll kill you' " & McCain hasn't repudiated that statement!

[Berry Cool]

77. I love the flying-Keith graphic.

As he gets yet another chance to complain about how he doesn't have all the superpowers he wants.

[Berry Cool]

79. This is the kind of closing story that only Keith could come up with.

I :loveya: Keith.

Yes, I wish I could fly, too. Keith still wants the jet pack he saw at the 1964 World's Fair!

[Patsy Stone]

81. "What about X-Ray vision?"

LOL! I'd like to fly, sorta, but I'd really like to have a transporter (preferably with the time travel extras) instead.

[Berry Cool]

82. No...don't become invisible, Keith!

:cry: How he ducked was funny, though.
