KOEB 7-21-08 - Obama's plan is endorsed by Al Maliki edition

[SharonRB]

And I'm fresh back from seeing Al Gore!

:hi:

[SeattleGirl]

1. Hi Sharon. Howdy all.

That's so cool you got to see the Goracle.

:hi:

[SharonRB]

2. Hi, SG

Yes, it was very unexpected and very exciting!

How are you doing?

[Berry Cool]

4. Good for you, Sha-Sha!

:hi: Do tell us all about it!

Keith's with us from LA, where he just finished the Death March with Cocktails that is the TV critics' event.

[SeattleGirl]

6. Hey Berry

:hi:

[Berry Cool]

18. Hi SG.

:hi: Did you see my message?

[SeattleGirl]

23. Yes, I did.

Thanks. I am seriously starting to think about at least consulting with an attorney.

:hug:

[Berry Cool]

15. Here's what Keith did today, per Tim Goodman:

...today marks the end of the NBC Universal two-day press tour appearance....Unfortunately, this last day seems over-packed with too much stuff and not enough time. Case in point the half-hour given to the "Decision '08" panel with NBC News president Steve Capus, "Hardball" host Chris Matthews, Keith Olbermann, Joe Scarborough and NBC chief White House correspondent David Gregory. First off, 30 minutes on your election coverage isn't nearly enough and secondly, Matthews alone is capable of eating up 27 of those minutes answering one question, which he very nearly did.

...The rest of today is filled out with...a session for NBC's "Football Night In America"...

In short, Keith was a busy boy today. I wonder if he'll be able to fly back in time to be with us tomorrow night in good shape. I hope so. Either that or I hope he stays a week and does it as a busman's holiday.

Oh, and I can completely believe Tweety took up 27 minutes of the 30 devoted to the election coverage session.

[GigiMommy]

29. Hi Berry!!!

:hi: OK, you're freaking me out. How do you know practically everything that Keith does(partners w/Dan again, All Star Game, LA trip)!?! I think you're his Personal Assistant.:loveya:

[Berry Cool]

52. GGM, it's called The Internets.

There are many of them, with a lot of information. Use the Google. It's what all the young whippersnappers are doing. Even John McCain is giving it a whirl.

But seriously, he does the event every summer, and Tim Goodman of the San Francisco Chronicle always blogs it. So when Keith first went missing, I checked out Goodman's blog. He wasn't there yet, but now that he is in LA, I checked again--sure enough, it's NBC/Universal Day!

Oh, and I knew about Keith and Dan being partners again because RACHEL announced it on COUNTDOWN. And the All-Star Game...well, I had a feeling he'd go to that and the prior night's Home Run Derby only because they were in Yankee Stadium this year. Usually he doesn't go--he's said on Dan Patrick's radio show that he's not really into the All-Star Game. But what with it being in the House That Ruth Built and all...it was a good guess that he'd probably go this year.

[GigiMommy]

61. AAAAAAAAAAAAAAHHHHHHHHHH!!!!

:rofl: I was hoping you really WERE his P.A.!!

[Berry Cool]

87. Honey, I only WISH I was.

I might be in a much better position in life...*cough* *cough*

[SharonRB]

78. The wireless network at the Austin Convention Center

was called "Internets." No joke.

:rofl:

[Berry Cool]

90. Did it consist of a series of tubes?

[SeattleGirl]

5. Not so very well.

I mesn, I jumped right back into a job search, but it still really stings, what they did to me.

[SharonRB]

14. It's not only seriously disgusting

but it's also very mystifying. Did they even tell you what they thought you lied about so you could at least defend yourself? The whole thing makes no sense.

You're having as bad a year as I'm having, I think.

[SeattleGirl]

16. They told me, yes. And I've already debunked two of the three things

they said I lied about, but they are not responding to me at all.

I am now persona non grata.

[SharonRB]

20. That's total bullshit

You really do need to talk to a lawyer.

[WolverineDG]

21. Fuck 'em

If they can't see how great you are, fuck 'em. (Sue the crap out of 'em too, if you can)

Here's to bigger & better things heading your way, SG. :toast:

dg

[Berry Cool]

27. Can you debunk the third?

Or is it your word against theirs?

[SeattleGirl]

My word against theirs unfortunately.

They both swear they heard me say I HAD done something when what I said was that I HADN'T done it yet. This was during my initial interview.

I told them twice more during my three weeks there, but because they BOTH misunderstood what I said, well, that means I'm a liar and only they know the truth.

It's completely frustrating.

[RevCheesehead]

51. This makes me so very angry, I'm spitting.

Damn them to hell!!! :grr:

Sweetie, believe me, I feel for ya. :hug::hug::hug:

[SeattleGirl]

53. Thanks, Rev

I keep trying to make sense of it all, but I can't.

:hug: :hug: :hug:

[RevCheesehead]

59. I can't believe how callous some people are.

Is there any chance you can get your old job back?

And can you maybe find one for me, too? :hug:

[SeattleGirl]

60. I called my former boss, and he would bring be back, but there

really is no work right now.

[RevCheesehead]

66. I'll add you to my "urgent cases" prayer list.

You know, a variety of people who are suddenly facing very sucky situations.

Please resist the urge to blame yourself, no matter what, OK? :hug:

[SeattleGirl]

68. Aw, I appreciate that, Rev.

And I'm not blaming myself at all. I may not be the shiniest knife in the drawer, but I have professional integrity in spades. That it was questioned is wrong in is wrong in so many ways.

[Berry Cool]

92. And I'm concerned that it may get you blacklisted if they spread their version of the story.

That's why you may NEED to sue.

[SeattleGirl]

94. They will be truly sorry if they say anything publicly.

Very, very sorry.

[Berry Cool]

104. I'm just wondering if it will get through the grapevine.

There are few worse things that can be said about you in the working world than that you lie on your resume.

[WolverineDG]

81. Am I on that list too?

remember the call from last week? :hug:

dg

[RevCheesehead]

83. Of course you are!

Sorry for the delay - damned computer froze up on me. :argh:

[WolverineDG]

88. Thanks, I need all the help I can get

bet I have my own candelabra, huh? :hug: :loveya:

dg

[RevCheesehead]

91. Protestants do not use candles.

But we're really good at long-winded, superfluous prayers. O8)

[WolverineDG]

93. Oh Jesus Christ, would you just say "Amen" already?

I'm starving.---my brother one Thanksgiving.....

dg

[RevCheesehead]

96. I like Bart Simpson's prayer best:

"Hey God, we'd like to thank you for all this food, but since we had to go out and buy it ourselves, thanks for nothing."

[WolverineDG]

102. Nuthin' tops Schneider from "One Day At a Time"

Rub a dub dub, thank God for the Grub. Yay God!

Oh, Amen.


:spray: :rofl:

dg

[Berry Cool]

95. I hope I am too!

Pretty please????

[RevCheesehead]

99. Absolutely.

The world better watch out. They're about to be exposed to the KOEB: extra pissed-off division of wronged women.

Botany, you'd better take cover.

[Berry Cool]

113. Maybe we should start our own organization, like the PUMAs.

Except ours will be called "OSMA."

Ownership Society, My Ass. :grr:

[GigiMommy]

3. Hi Everybody!!!

:hi: Keith's in LA!?!

[SeattleGirl]

7. Hi Gigi. How's the sweet Cassie doing?

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

[GigiMommy]

22. HI SG!!!

:hi: She's doing SO much better, thanks. She's now upstairs in our room watching TV (thank you!! thank you!! thank you!!) giving us a break. One can only take so much HannahDrakeJoshZackCodyAvatarJimmyNeutronMickeyGoofySpongeBob)!

On a different note: :hug: and the more I think about it (your job) the more :grr: I feel.
That SUCKS!!

[SeattleGirl]

25. I'm glad she's doing better.

And thanks. :hug:

[Berry Cool]

28. Yes he is, GGM

:hi: Hope you and Cassie are doing OK.

[WolverineDG]

8. Jeepers Creepers, y'all

Could you just please for once stay on topic for one freakin' weekend????? The Topic Police need days off, ya know.

:rofl:

:hi:

dg

[SeattleGirl]

10. I tried, but I just couldn't stay on topic.

How are ya, Wolvie?

:hi:

[WolverineDG]

12. Doin' okay

Just got a massage, so feeling all mellow.

:hug: for you & a :nuke: for the asshats. Feel better now? :)

dg

[SeattleGirl]

19. Thanks, Wolvie.

Still not feeling so very good.

But I will eventually, I know.

:hug:

[Berry Cool]

30. Try to look for the good things in life.

Keith saying "nipple," for example. :evilgrin:

[SeattleGirl]

34. Hehe.

That was funny!

[SharonRB]

17. Hey, DG

See what you missed by not coming to NN? You, too, could have had your picture taken with the Goreacle.

It was good to at least see you for lunch on Thursday, though.

:hi:

[WolverineDG]

24. Yeah, well, I'm all busy saving the Constitution & stuff like that

besides, I've already shaken President Gore's hand. :)

Too bad I couldn't stay longer, but lunch was great on Thursday! :)

dg

[Berry Cool]

32. Hey, between you saving the Constitution and Keith saving the democracy

he owes you one!

[WolverineDG]

45. Yes, but that's like a Lay's Potato Chip

IYKWIM :evilgrin:

dg

[Berry Cool]

65. HEY NOWWWWW!!!!

:spank: :spank: :spank: :spank: :spank: :spank:

Of course, I DO KWYM. :evilgrin: I'd just like a taste myself.

[WolverineDG]

71. No shares!!!

dg

[GigiMommy]

76. Wolfie, did I say HI!!!!

:hi: Hi Wolfie!!!

[WolverineDG]

82. Heya Gigi & Cassie!

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

dg

[Berry Cool]

79. Can't we switch off?

I'll get him only on days of the week that end in Y. :rofl:

[bleever]

9. Keef is tanned, rested, and ready

to lay it all out for us.

:hi:

[SeattleGirl]

11. Hi bleev

:hi:

[bleever]

42. Hiya, SG.

:hi:

[Berry Cool]

33. Well, he may be tanned and ready

but I doubt after today that he's rested!

:hi: bleev!

[GigiMommy]

44. Hi Bleever!!!

:hi:

[bleever]

63. Hi Gigi.

37. GOSH!!! HE LOOKS SO PRESIDENTIAL!!!

:loveya:

[GigiMommy]

38. RACHEL!!!

:loveya: :loveya: :loveya:

[Berry Cool]

43. And now everyone wants to leave Iraq because HE wants to leave!

Isn't that hysterical???

Rachel is in the studio even though Keith is not.

But did you know, Obama is to blame for high gas prices? Just ask McSame. He said so while standing on the border of Iraq and Afghanistan.

[SeattleGirl]

39. RACHEL!!!

:loveya: :loveya: :loveya:

[RevCheesehead]

40. You get to hang out with all the cool kids!

CC is perched atop the computer monitor, eyeing my dinner (he's pretending not to look at it). Oreo's asleep in the chair, and Keith is off somewhere - perhaps Los Angeles?

:hi: :hug:

[GigiMommy]

58. Hi Rev!!!

[RevCheesehead]

86. Hi, Gigi and Cassie!

[Berry Cool]

55. DAMN! WE GOT KEITHUS INTERRUPTUS!!!!

:cry: Keith! KEITH!! I know your Football Night session is probably now, but don't start what you can't finish!!!! :cry:

[SeattleGirl]

56. Just think of it as foreplay

:evilgrin:

[Berry Cool]

74. I'll try to. After all, he did say he'd be back tomorrow night for more.

And he didn't leave without saying "nipple" TWICE. :loveya:

[GigiMommy]

70. Hi Botany!!!

:hi:

[Berry Cool]

72. Better tune in at the crack of 10

or you will miss Keith completely!

[bleever]

73. Dive by.

Don't forget to slap your tail.

[Botany]

103. how could I forget

http://www.naturesongs.com/beaver1.wav

[WolverineDG]

75. Oh yah, you're smooth

no wonder steph's hot for your bod....or is it just gas???

:shrug:

:hi: bot!

dg

[Berry Cool]

80. Maybe Wolfie would rather have Keith slap her tail for her.

:evilgrin:

[WolverineDG]

85. I am not adverse to a little slap & tickle

:evilgrin:

But I must insist: NO SHARES!

dg

[Botany]

105. She loves me .... she really loves me

:rofl:

[RevCheesehead]

106. We all do, Cuddles.

:hug: :loveya:

[Botany]

107. But the EDVs just want me as some sort of sex toy

:scared: :cry:

I have feelings too.

[RevCheesehead]

108. I know it's kind of hard to believe,

but sometimes we just need a hug, too. :)

[Botany]

109. Did I ever tell you that you are my Fav?

A Wisconsin Breakfast

[RevCheesehead]

110. Thanks!

Did you make it yourself? :)

BTW, Horseradish Mustard is the best on brats. :9

[Berry Cool]

114. OK, so you're a sex toy with feelings.

Who says you can't be both? :shrug:

[ralps]

62. Here's the nightly LOL Kitty & Panda Photos

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

[Berry Cool]

77. Oh, that ad is such a joke!!!!

"Why are gas prices high? Because people are cheering for Barack Obama. Enough with the cheering!"

[Berry Cool]

100. Well, at least we got Bonus Ancient Keith from 2004!

I have to record this part when it runs again at 10. I wasn't watching regularly that long ago.

Keith, Keith..."Thanks for the Mammary"?!?!?!? :spank:

[GigiMommy]

97. MUSTO!!!

:wow:

[SharonRB]

98. I just started a new thread

with 19 of my 130 pics from NN. Here's the one of me with Al (and another attendee).

[SeattleGirl]

101. Very cool, Sharon!

:bounce: :bounce:

[Botany]

111. Congrats! nice picture

We should be ending up his term now. I saw him on Meet the Press and almost
cried .... he is so smart and so good. To think of all those things that would never
have happened.

[SharonRB]

112. Hubby recorded it for me

and I watched it tonight. Oh, what could have been. The world would be such a difference place had he taken his rightful place in the WH.

[Berry Cool]

115. Sad to think of that.

It's a nice pic, though.

I guess we have no choice but to try to get in eight good years with someone else.

Anything beats another Republican.
