I don't wanna jinx it either, but....

[Patsy Stone]

2. Hi, Shar!

:hi:

$740,000 for Tinklenberg -- over the weekend. Wow.

[SharonRB]

4. Hey, Pats

Never heard of him before Friday. Way to go, Bachman!

[Patsy Stone]

11. He was on Steph's show last week or the week before

way before this. He sounded nice, and funny, and not at all like a batshit crazy person.

[SeattleGirl]

13. Hey Patsy!

This election has got to be THE weirdest, but most exciting election of my lifetime!

:hi:

[WolverineDG]

30. Yeah, SG, you just can't make this shit up

Speaking of weird, have you seen "Bassets for Obama?" They're from Seattle!

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=LQ0abgolKgU

dg

[SeattleGirl]

33. How cool!

Oh, that reminds me (and reminds me of CC): there is a house about half a mile from here that has a big sign in the front window that says, "Ferrets for Obama".

[RevCheesehead]

41. Ferrets are remarkably perceptive creatures.

Much like cats - and Tribbles.

[WolverineDG]

54. I sent this to my cousin earlier when I found it on DU

she's still laughing her head off.... :rofl:

dg

[Patsy Stone]

Love the goggles.

:)

[WolverineDG]

67. Cute earworm too

bassets for obama, obama, obama, bassets for obama (beat beat) woof!

:rofl:

dg

[WolverineDG]

23. Man, I wish Cornyn would have fucked up like that

Noriega needs some scratch, and he's within striking distance!

dg

[greenmutha]

5. Uh oh. I made several

"sinister" donations. :evilgrin:

[SharonRB]

8. Yeah, me, too

They may all add up to just about $200 in total.

[WolverineDG]

35. Me too! Me too!!

I'm gonna be real pissed if I'm left off the "un-American, sinister Obama donor" list. :grr:

:hi:

dg

[SeattleGirl]

6. Hi Sharon! Howdy all! I'm still at work, but I'm watching KO online!!

This is very cool! I need to wait out the traffic (one of the main ways to get home is closed right now, so all that traffic will spill over onto my usual route to get home, so I'll hang out here you you and Keef!

:hi:

[greenmutha]

10. Hi SG!

:hi:

[SharonRB]

14. Hi, SG

Glad you can join us.

:hi:

[RevCheesehead]

17. Good choice.

Keef, estrogen, & snark. :evilgrin:

:hi: :loveya:

[SeattleGirl]

22. Definitely my preferred cocktail!

[RevCheesehead]

24. The estrogen coctail?

That makes Botany :scared:
It keeps me sane. :evilgrin:

[SeattleGirl]

25. Yep!

:evilgrin:

[Patsy Stone]

7. That picture of Rick Davis they just used.

OMG. How reptilian did that make him look?

[RevCheesehead]

20. Um... just a thought...

perhaps he really is reptillian? :shrug:

:hi:

[Patsy Stone]

31. I have not

totally discounted that possibility. If true, I believe he came from the same home world as Cindy.

[RevCheesehead]

36. And Laura.

I think Swamp Rat must have visited that planet. He took lots of pictures.

[greenmutha]

38. Sometimes I wonder

if maybe David Icke is right. :scared:

[Patsy Stone]

50. Absolutely

and Alberto Gonzales, too.

It sounds like somewhere you'd like to write "don't waste your time" next to on the star atlas.

[Berry Cool]

69. I still can't look at it without thinking

"Didn't Jeffrey Dahmer get killed in prison?!?"

[RevCheesehead]

72. exactly!!

He's a dead ringer.

[RevCheesehead]

12. Hey, everyone - - I VOTED Today!!!

:woohoo::bounce::bounce:

:hi:

[SharonRB]

16. Yay!

:woohoo:

[Patsy Stone]

18. Yay!

I'm going tomorrow morning. Can't wait! :bounce:

:hi:

[SeattleGirl]

Hey Rev! So did I!!

We got our absentee ballots on Friday, filled them out this weekend, and I dropped them off this afternoon!

:bounce: :bounce:

[ralps]

27. Hi RevCheesehead, Crook & I are doing good & Hi to Oreo, CC & lil' Keith! Woohoo!!!

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

[RevCheesehead]

32. Hi ralps and Crook!

Oreo says "MRRRRAWWWL!" and :purr: Go figure. :)

[ralps]

40. Does Oreo have a split purrsonality??? LOL & hugs to Oreo!

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

[RevCheesehead]

44. Yes.

She has some kind of infection going on, and it's making her (pardon the pun), "pissy." She wants to be held AND left alone. :)

[Patsy Stone]

51. Look at me

DON'T LOOK AT ME!

Pet me...

NO!!! Don't touch me!!!

[SeattleGirl]

55. ROFL!

Sounds like my Baby Cat. Loves to plop herself on my lap, but I have to keep my hands away from her until she lets me know it's okay.

:crazy:

[RevCheesehead]

65. You forgot the big one:

FEED ME!....
No, not that crap!!

[greenmutha]

34. YAY!

Hi Rev! :hi: :hug:

[RevCheesehead]

47. Hey, Greenie!

:hi: :hug:

[WolverineDG]

19. I voted today!!

Cheesey copied me. ;) :woohoo: It felt SOOOO GOOD to mark my ballot this morning!! :bounce:

dg

[RevCheesehead]

28. That must be true.

I didn't vote until this afternoon. :D

:hi:

[SeattleGirl]

29. Hi Wolvie!

It did, didn't it? :woohoo: :woohoo:

:hi:

[ralps]

21. Hi SharonRB, Hi Everyone!

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

[SeattleGirl]

37. Hey ralps!

:hi:

[ralps]

43. Hi SeattleGirl!!!

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

[greenmutha]

42. Hi ralps!

:hi: :hug:

[ralps]

49. Hi greenmutha!

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

[SeattleGirl]

39. Does anyone else think of an older Harry Potter when you see

Clarence Page? :)

[Patsy Stone]

45. LOL

I was just thinking that over the years the diameter of his glasses has expanded. I remember when he had tiny little circles.

:)

Happy Monday! :hi:

[SeattleGirl]

48. Happy Monday back atcha!

:hi:

[greenmutha]

46. YAY! Slam that Palin Amurika-hater! n/t

[greenmutha]

52. Has anybody seen Botany today?

:cry: :cry:

http://www.democraticunderground.com/discuss/duboard.php?az=show_topic&forum=389&topic_id=4274942

[Patsy Stone]

53. Vile.

:mad:

[Berry Cool]

57. Climb behind a tree and make a noise like Stephanie Miller.

He'll show up.

:hi: Hi all! Can't wait for the Special Comment!

When Clarence Page said to Keith "Well, you know Rush is a son of--" I had hopes he'd say something other than "the old South."

[RevCheesehead]

66. What does a sound like Mama sound like?

That could come in handy.
:hi:

[greenmutha]

70. I was wondering that myself.

Hee-hee!

[RevCheesehead]

58. He must be AWOL.

I expected him to show up here:
http://www.democraticunderground.com/discuss/duboard.php?az=show_mesg&forum=132&topic_id=7530784&mesg_id=7530784

[greenmutha]

68. Ha! Yup, he should have been ALL OVER that thread.

And I *do* mean that literally. (Nice photo of her!)

[SeattleGirl]

71. Hey! That was taken when she was here in Seattle! Cool!

[RevCheesehead]

74. Clearly,

one of the best days of her life. :)

[SeattleGirl]

75. It was certainly a highlight of mine!

BTW, that's Ron Reagan's foot in the picture. :)

[RevCheesehead]

73. I even gave Bot a shout-out.

But he's chosen to ignore me. Figures. :eyes:

[SeattleGirl]

59. Ugh. I saw that post earlier today.

The totally ugly UGLY creeps are coming out of the woodwork.

I hope they find out who did that.

:cry:

[SharonRB]

61. That's disgusting.

[WolverineDG]

62. That's sick.

:grr: I hope those bastards rot in hell.

dg

[Berry Cool]

93. Nobody kills a Bay Air and gets away with it

as far as the KOEB is concerned. :grr:

[SeattleGirl]

56. "Can you fear me now?"

:spray:

[bleever]

60. What is this "Anna Kedotal Reports" that everyone mentions?

I've never seen it.

:hi:

[greenmutha]

63. LOL! Hi bleev!

NGU :toast:

[bleever]

78. greenmutha, the owner of

the very first KOEB mug, if I'm not mistaken.

:toast:

[greenmutha]

81. Still wearin' it proudly, too.

:patriot:

[Patsy Stone]

64. Abby Normal's younger sister.

:hi:

[greenmutha]

76. OMG - Perfect!

Barack Obama - 1991

[Berry Cool]

77. What a great story!!!!

Although I have to admit I was tickled by the one about the McCartney head.

Woke up, got out of bed, dragged a comb across my head...then left it on the Underground.

Oh, and the guy dancing with the backhoe..."Who you callin' a hoe?!?"

[greenmutha]

79. ROFL! n/t

[SeattleGirl]

80. Bwahahaha!

Oh, Berry! :rofl:

[SharonRB]

82. I really thought this had all been planned

Did Keith imply she actually backed out at the last minute?

[greenmutha]

84. Dunno. I thought it "went as planned" too.

But I *loved* how they made fun of her to her face.

[SharonRB]

85. Me, too!

Is she too stupid to know they were making fun of her or did she think they were just being funny and didn't mean any of it?

[greenmutha]

90. I'll take door #1 Bob!

:rofl: :rofl:

[WolverineDG]

91. and didn't give her a punchline either

Either she sucked at comedic delivery even worse than Nixon (sock it to ME?), or she panned most of the material they gave her. :shrug:

dg

[WolverineDG]

86. If so, Amy Poehler deserves a damn medal

as well as an Emmy for doing that rap at the last minute.

dg

[Patsy Stone]

88. Hear! Hear!

:applause:

[SharonRB]

107. Look what I just found

http://my.barackobama.com/page/s/flbomomiami

Did you know they were going to be there tomorrow?

[Patsy Stone]

113. Yes, ma'am

I'm going to have to play hookey if I go, and I hate tight crowds, so I don't know. But I realize it's my last chance to see him, but it's not an easy thing. I'm going to have to sit outside in the sun to get in, and then sit in the sun all day, until they begin. This is an all day affair, especially if I want to get there early enough to find parking. So torn.

[RevCheesehead]

114. Do it.

Take a book with you.
You will never, ever regret seeing him in person.

[greenmutha]

116. I agree.

I would give just about anything to see him in person and feel the electricity in the crowd. Do it Pats, you might regret it if you don't. I truly believe that O is going to be the best. president. ever.

[Patsy Stone]

120. I know

I know... I know. :)

[Patsy Stone]

119. I know... I know...

I know.

[SharonRB]

117. I understand, but if it's your last chance, you might want to consider it

It will be worth it. I promise.

[Patsy Stone]

121. I know, I know...

I know. I just wish it was easier. :(

[SeattleGirl]

89. That rap bit was hysterical!

Especially with Amy, very pregnant Amy, smacking herself on the behind. :rofl:

[greenmutha]

92. "My country 'tis of thee, from my porch I can see...

Russia and such." :rofl: :rofl: :rofl: :rofl:

[RevCheesehead]

97. One of the best lines!

:rofl:

[RevCheesehead]

83. "Weakened Update"

:rofl:

[greenmutha]

87. LOL! n/t

[Berry Cool]

99. Roger Ailes says Tom Brokaw is a liberal Democrat?

He must be doing his damn best to hide it by acting like a Republican tool on TV!!!!

[greenmutha]

102. That was a total WTF moment for me.

Brokaw? A Liberal Democrat? :wtf:

[Patsy Stone]

106. Anyone to the left of Stalin?

This is the litmus test he's using, no doubt.

[SeattleGirl]

94. Oh no! Obama's grandmother......

[RevCheesehead]

96. Already lifting her up in prayer.

Good thoughts are welcome, too. O8)

[greenmutha]

100. Prayers and good thoughts...

Absolutely. :grouphug:

[WolverineDG]

101. Dear God

please let her live long enough to see him win! O8)

dg

[SharonRB]

103. Coke, please?

http://www.democraticunderground.com/discuss/duboard.php?az=show_mesg&forum=315&topic_id=133873&mesg_id=133972

[WolverineDG]

105. GMTA

:hug:

dg

[greenmutha]

104. Amen to that, DG.

:cry:

[Patsy Stone]

122. Amen.

O8)

[SharonRB]

95. Oh, no!

I sure hope she lives long enough to see her grandson elected. Get well, Grandma!

:hug:

[Berry Cool]

111. I think we're all behind those sentiments.

Barack is lucky to have had any grandparents as long as he has, but I hope he continues to do so.

I was deprived of mine pretty young, considering. One died seven years before I was born; another one I never really knew before he died and maybe only met him once at age 4 (which is all for the best, from what I know of him); a third died when I was 8 and the last died when I was 18.

[RevCheesehead]

115. Remember, his grandparents helped raise him, too.

And with both his mom and dad gone, this must be especially hard.

[Berry Cool]

118. For sure. Just having her be so ill must ache at his heart.

They are so responsible for what he's become, and they've been there when his parents weren't or could not be. I feel for him.

[ralps]

98. Today's worst person in the world is Roger Ailes!! for saying Russert & Brokaw

are Liberal!! WTF??? :hi: :loveya: :hug: :pals: :woohoo: :wtf:

[Patsy Stone]

108. Wow, wow, wow...

Keith was on a tear. This may be one of his best Special Comments ever.

[RevCheesehead]

109. Keith went overtime!

And - I'm glad he did. :applause:

[greenmutha]

110. Man! That special comment brought tears to my eyes.

Lovin' the Keefers. :loveya:

[Berry Cool]

112. That one was well worth the overtime, Rachel no doubt will agree.

2,000 days since Mission Accomplished. Man.
