KOEB 11-17-08 - David Shuster subs edition

[SharonRB]

Where's Keith?

[Patsy Stone]

1. Booooooooooo!

:hi:

[ralps]

2. Hi SharonRB, Hi Everyone!

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

[WolverineDG]

3. Well-deserved vacay, I reckon

:hi:

He's off this week & Tweety's off next week, that's my guess.

dg

[Patsy Stone]

4. Is Rachel on that Air America cruise?

:hi:

I still think Hill's better for HHS than State. My .02

[SharonRB]

10. I assume so

She's got a sub on her radio show.

:hi:

[Patsy Stone]

44. Hmmm.

So who do you think is filling in for her this evening? Oh, the suspense.

[SharonRB]

49. I guess we'll know in a little while

[Patsy Stone]

83. Lisa Douglas??

Really?

[SharonRB]

86. Guess so

No snark, but I still like her.

[Patsy Stone]

91. I hope I can stay awake

Her voice is so soothing, it puts me to sleep.

I'm going to have some dinner now. :hi:

[SharonRB]

92. Enjoy!

She's far too calm, but she's smart.

[Berry Cool]

22. I wish Keith would go on an Air America cruise.

I'd sign up to go along.

Then i'd throw Katy overboard the first night, get Keith drunk on cocktails on the Lido Deck, and from then on in it would be (cue the voice of my beloved Ghoulardi):



"The LUUUUUUVE Boat."

[Berry Cool]

14. Yeah, I expected him to disappear sometime soon.

He's been working a long, long campaign season without any breaks. I thought, the first second things die down a bit after the election, he's outta there. He might be gone all this week, which may be just as well--I can run some errands that need running.

[Botany]

5. Obama goes old school and picks Jim Messina

Loggins & Messina



Set your phasers to "mellow rock" .... Capt Barack is calling the tunes.

[Patsy Stone]

7. House on Pooh Corner

Will be played instead of Hail to the Chief.

:hi:

[Berry Cool]

17. Funny, I was thinking the same thing.

"Your Mama Don't Dance And Your Daddy Don't Barack and Roll..." :rofl:

[Botany]

18. We might be broke but the party will be fun

[Berry Cool]

20. Ah, I see what's on YOUR mind.

Is that a tricolored bong or are you just happy to see me?

[Patsy Stone]

28. AM Gold

Acapulco Gold

Same thing.

[Patsy Stone]

6. Is Bill coloring his hair?

Wasn't it white?

[GigiMommy]

8. Hi Everybody!!!

:hi: :bounce: Computer's moving REALLY slow tonight.

[SharonRB]

12. Hi, Gigi

:hi:

[Patsy Stone]

13. I'm moving slow, too

So we'll be perfectly in sync.

:hi:

[GigiMommy]

23. Hi Sharon!!!

:hi: :bounce: OOPS! I AM MOVING SLOW!!!

[SharonRB]

25. You and me both what?

It's Pats who's moving slowly, not me.

[GigiMommy]

26. Gigi put the wine glass down and SLOWLY back away!

:rofl:

[Patsy Stone]

39. Okay

You win.

:rofl:

[Berry Cool]

29. That's Patsy Stone, she's a-movin' kinda slow at the junction.

:hi: Hi, and welcome to KOEB TV Land!

Keep watching, boys, you might get lucky and catch some EDVs skinny-dipping in the water tower.

[GigiMommy]

34. Hi Berry!!!

:hi: :bounce: Doesn't help that I stayed awake until 2 AM waiting to here Wolfie on Stephanie Miller's show.

[Berry Cool]

41. Wow, you're a dedicated Wolfie fan!

:hi: Hi GGM, and well, hi to everyone, because I don't think I said hi. :rofl:

I kinda hope Hillary doesn't pass the vetting process. Then Barack can say he tried, but the Clintons just weren't forthcoming enough. Of course, it will only make for more drama surrounding them, but I'm afraid we're stuck with that for as long as there are Clintons walking the earth.

[Patsy Stone]

38. That pilot

was always kinda cute.

But keep Uncle Joe away from me -- he smells like mothballs.

[Berry Cool]

66. Aw, don't say that.

Joe's just come up with a way we can all get rich. Honest. He says so.

[Patsy Stone]

73. The key

to the whole thing is Arnold. Just you watch.

LOL

[GigiMommy]

32. Hi Patsy!!!

:hi: :bounce: YOU and me both!

[Patsy Stone]

9. #5 Diplobamacy

:rofl:

[SharonRB]

15. So much fun with Obama's name

There's just so much you can do with it.

[WolverineDG]

11. Just finished a very nummy home-made soup

:)

Anyone want the recipe? :9

dg

[ralps]

16. Hi WolverineDG! Yes Please!!!

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

[Berry Cool]

19. Sounds like a good idea this time of year, feel free!

I'm baking a cake tonight, but it's out of the box. Just took it from the oven to cool.

Mmm, cake. Devil's food. White icing.

[WolverineDG]

24. Okay this is based on the recipe given to my by my maid

(yes I finally broke down & got one after I got out of the hospital)

Dissolve 1 Knorr chicken boullion cube as per directions. (will be experimenting w/other broth soon)
Chicken thighs
Carrots
Yellow squash
Green squash (not zuccini)--it's actually sold as calabaza verde here
Chayote (another type of Mexican squash)
Onion
Garlic
Cilantro or other seasoning

I browned the chicken in the pot, seasoning it with All Season, then poured on the Knorr mix. I chopped up a bunch of carrots (I love carrots in soup) & squash, then halved an onion & dropped in in the pot. Minced up two garlic cloves, grabbed some cilantro & chopped that up, tossed it in the pot, then added 4 more cups of water. Let it cook on the stove for over an hour. Now I have enough for lunches & dinners for the rest of the week. :9

What I didn't add that she has on her recipe: tomatoes & potatoes. I also forgot to get a lime again, to add in when it's time to eat.

More experimenting is needed (noodles? rice?), so this is a work in progress.

Noms away!!

dg

[SharonRB]

27. Sounds good except for

the cilantro. That's a deal breaker for me.

[WolverineDG]

30. you can make it without

the last 2 times I made soup, I forgot cilantro at the store. :)

dg

[SharonRB]

33. I knew that

Just thought I'd give you a hard time. Sounds really yummy. I like carrots in soup, too.

[WolverineDG]

43. HA! beat you to it

why do you think I said "or other seasoning?" :evilgrin:

dg

[Patsy Stone]

47. I'll eat your cilantro.

I love cilantro. Sometimes I eat cilantro, cilantro, cilantro, cilantro, and cilantro.

:)

[WolverineDG]

52. With a side of cilantro?

:)

dg

[Patsy Stone]

60. Please!

:)

[ralps]

31. Thanks for Posting it!!

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

[Berry Cool]

35. Sounds yummy, but I don't think we have the green squash or chayote here.

Acorn squash, yes, but I'm not sure if it subs. Hmm.

[WolverineDG]

50. You'd be surprised

it's green (duh), but not as deep green as zuccini, & is striped. It may even have a name in English, but it's not used down here.

dg

[Berry Cool]

58. I might be able to find it here, but would probably have to go to a pretty large market.

I'll check for it next time I'm at Giant Eagle. I found a soup recipe for it online posted by a Columbus TV station, so it must get some Ohio distribution. They also said you can substitute pattypan or yellow zucchini for it if you can't find it.

I also gather acorn squash is very similar to calabaza verde.

[WolverineDG]

62. I'm sure any kind of squash will do nt

[Berry Cool]

68. Sounds delish. Thanks!

This is the time of year when it's so great to make one big pot of soup and just eat from it for a week. Tonight I had pasta with the last of the spaghetti sauce I cooked about a month ago. It freezes great. I was out of the meatballs I made to go with it, though, so I nuked some prepackaged ones.

[GigiMommy]

46. Hi Wolfie and thanks!!!

:hi: :bounce: I FINALLY got to hear you on Stephanie's show (around 2AM). I paying for it now though.

[WolverineDG]

56. I did NOT tell Frangela to kiss my ass

:grr:

I told them they could kiss ME, then Stephie (after she cut me off) talked about pasty white.....

dg

[GigiMommy]

70. I don't usually listen to Stephanie, didn't know who Frangela were.

Who da thunk there would be a NICK/DISNEY connection (Frances Callier was on Drake and Josh AND Hannah Montana).

[Berry Cool]

75. Ah, Wolfie defends her honor.

:rofl: I just remember Steph saying she was taking a call from "Deegee," and then it hit me--"DG"! And her saying something after she talked to you about kissing a pasty white...

[GigiMommy]

77. I was half awake but I remember that!

:rofl:

[ralps]

21. Well from Huffington Post LIEberman is likely to keep his Homeland Chairmanship

http://www.huffingtonpost.com/2008/11/17/reports-lieberman-likely_n_144446.html

:hi: :loveya: :hug: :pals: :grr:

[Berry Cool]

37. Too bad, I was hoping to see him stripped.

But only of his chairmanship.

[ralps]

40. I was hoping that too BerryBush! WTF are the Dems thinking???

:hi: :loveya: :hug: :pals: :wtf:

[Patsy Stone]

42. Blecccchhh

:hi:

[ralps]

36. Yay!!! Milwaukee gets an Oddball Shoutout!!!

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

[Berry Cool]

51. Was that your tree that broke apart??

Oops.

I'm glad they have David Shuster subbing now because I can't tolerate any other subs, but he doesn't bring the snark for Oddball like Keith does. He's too earnest. Only Alison and Rachel ever did Oddball nearly as well.

I also miss how Keith used to tape a little piece to beg and plead with us to forgive him for being away and to please watch David sub. I feel snubbed. :-(

[ralps]

59. Hi BerryBush, no it wasn't, but at least it was in Milwaukee!

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

[RevCheesehead]

93. I'm surprised it wasn't Zero the polar bay-air.

David was keeping "Zero-watch" going when Zero fell down in the moat and was content to stay there. :)

[ralps]

45. Oh Please let Sarah Palin's 15 minutes of Fame be over!!!!!!!!!!!

:hi: :loveya: :hug: :pals: :grr:

[Patsy Stone]

48. Newt dismissed her this weekend on Face the Nation

I think the bloom is off that rose.

[Berry Cool]

79. Then again, Newt thinks HE is the future of the Republican Party.

Yep, just what they need. Yet another creaky old slimeball who dumped a sicky wife for someone young, new and hot to trot. Of course! Why didn't I think of it?!?

[Berry Cool]

71. She's the Number One story???????

Oh please, God, let it end. Soon.

[Patsy Stone]

53. All of the scaffolding on the Xmas tree

looks creepy and dark.

The 14 year old boy across the hall is not happy right now. Not sure what happened, but whatever it was did NOT meet with his approval.

[Berry Cool]

74. You're right. For a second, I thought "What the hell building are they putting up across the plaza?"

But of course it's just Stuff around the tree.

I wonder if Keith will get to "turn it on" again this year. :rofl:

[Patsy Stone]

76. That was funny.

I hope they let him.

My first thought was, "Are they making a pagoda?"

[Patsy Stone]

54. Dr. Turley

please tell me * can't pardon himself.

[SharonRB]

57. Oh, please, Jonathan, please

Say it ain't so!

[SharonRB]

55. I thought you can't pardon yourself

[WolverineDG]

61. I thought you couldn't authorize torture

or deep-six habeas corpus. :shrug:

dg

[SharonRB]

63. Or spy on American citizens

or steal elections....

[WolverineDG]

64. Go figure nt

[Patsy Stone]

65. Or use the DoJ and the GSA

for political purposes.

[GigiMommy]

81. Why is it that sometimes some people get rich that

HAS NO BUSINESS GETTING RICH!

[Patsy Stone]

67. I heard Sarah's rumored to get a $7M advance.

Neiman Marcus, look out -- the Wasilla Hillbillies are back!

[SharonRB]

69. LOL

:rofl:

[Patsy Stone]

72. Batten down the Prada!

Lock up the Jimmy Choo's!

[Berry Cool]

80. Remember the closet Mr. Big made for Carrie in the Sex and the City movie???

"TAAAHHHHHD! I'M GONNA NEED A BIGGER CLAAAAAHHHHHSET!"

[SharonRB]

85. I want that closet!

It was amazing.

[Patsy Stone]

78. "...although America is ready for the dog RIGHT NOW!"

:rofl:

[Berry Cool]

84. And RACHEL cares enough to tape a plea for us to watch HER substitute...

*drum roll please*... LISA DOUGLAS!!!!!!!

[GigiMommy]

87. OK I put my last comment inTHE WRONG SPOT!!!

I'm done. I'm going to bed.

[Patsy Stone]

Sleep well, GGM!

:hug:

[SharonRB]

90. Sleep tight, Gigi

I hope you sleep better than I did last night. Took me at least three hours to fall asleep. I hate when that happens.

[SharonRB]

82. Arianna!

Now that's something new. Cool!

[Berry Cool]

89. Green Acres we are there!!

"Dahlinks, please stay tuned for me on the Rachel Maddow Show! We'll talk all about that wunnerful Mister Obahma, AND at the end of the show, I'll give you my SPECIAL recipe for hotscakes!!!!
