KOEB Meeting 2/6/09 C'mon Already, Pass the Friggin' Bill! Edition

[Berry Cool]

:hi: Happy Friday! :bounce: :bounce:



I knew Keith would be all over this "why Sarah Palin named her daughter Bristol" story like white on rice. Even better, it's another excuse to show Ancient Keith Footage.

And the Billo/Christian Slater mashup too!!!

But DAMN, Blinko took MSNBC off again! Sorry, I'm gonna have to be Berry After the Show!

[SeattleGirl]

1. Hi Berry! I agree!

But in case they don't do it today, I brought some of our Friday faves with me:

[RevCheesehead]

7. I want the big purple one. Pretty please!

Just because. :)

:hi: :hug::loveya:

[SeattleGirl]

8. And you may have it!

Just because. :loveya:

[RevCheesehead]

15. Yay!!!

:9 It's delish!! Thanks!

[Berry Cool]

16. Hey Rev, how's it goin'?

:hug:

[RevCheesehead]

27. I'm very happy, Berry Cool.

Keith's wearing one of my favorite ties. :loveya:

And it was in the mid 30's today! :bounce::bounce:

And I'm here with my favorite people! :woohoo:

How are you? :hi: :hug: :loveya:

[Berry Cool]

47. Very tired, but OK.

I need to go watch Keith. He's way over in the living room.

[Berry Cool]

14. Thanks! Clinkies, folks!!!!

Looks like it's gonna be a looong weekend watching C-SPAN 2 before we even get to Mama.

And what's with this Panetta crap?!?

[SeattleGirl]

21. Panetta sounded like a Bushie.

Yikes!

[GigiMommy]

50. Aw man, I wanted the Purple one but Rev deserves it so

I'll take the turquoise one. :beer:

[SeattleGirl]

51. The turquoise one is also very good!

[RevCheesehead]

52. If Bleev shows up, he can make more.

If not, I'll share mine with you. :hug:

[GigiMommy]

80. Hi Rev!!!

We've missed you and now Cassie's not here (gone campin'). :hi: :bounce: :hug:

[RevCheesehead]

85. Camping in the winter?

:scared:

Oh, wait - it was in the 30's - that IS spring!

Tell Cassie I missed her. :hi: :bounce:

[GigiMommy]

176. I will!

Had to go play with my Nephew.

[bleever]

82. Ze bar is open!

:hi:

[RevCheesehead]

88. Did you remember the potpourri?

:hi:

[bleever]

97. Well, actually I forgot the pourri.

Otherwise, we're good.

:hi:

[Patsy Stone]

90. Do you have the remote?

That scary dog/clown thing on the TV is freakin' me out.

:hi:

[bleever]

99. Alright, which joker changed the channel to Fox?

:hi:

[RavensChick]

72. Hi, SG!!!

Any drinks left? I need one, please!

:hi:

[SeattleGirl]

77. Plenty left. Help yourself!

:hi:

[RavensChick]

Thanks!

:beer:

[ralps]

2. Hi Berry Cool, Hi Everyone. Hell yes!!!!!!!!!!!

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

[SeattleGirl]

4. Hi ralps!

They are wearing me out, I tell ya!

:hi: :beer:

[ralps]

9. Hi SeattleGirl!!! Hugs & Like I've said before the Repukes need to just Shut the F Up!

:hi: :loveya: :hug: :pals: :woohoo: :grr: :grouphug:

[SeattleGirl]

10. I agree. Asshats still think they're running things.

They need to go sit in the corner for a few years.

[Berry Cool]

23. David Vitter, especially, needs to shut his friggin' diaper-hole.

'Cause that's where his opinions seem to be coming from, directly.

[RevCheesehead]

37. Lindsey Graham has been getting on my nerves.

He's posturing for the next pretzel-run. :puke:

:hi:

[SeattleGirl]

40. Lindsey can stick a dirty sock in his mouth.

Man drives me bat crap crazy!

[RevCheesehead]

43. Only a sock?

I was thinking more like a jock strap.

[SeattleGirl]

48. snerk!

:rofl:

[Patsy Stone]

53. How about Vitter's diaper instead?

Sorry.

:hi:

[RevCheesehead]

56. Only if it's soiled.

Otherwise, it's a waste of a good diaper.

:hi:

[SeattleGirl]

59. Bwahahaha!

You're so bad, Rev.

That's why I love you!

[RevCheesehead]

62. Thanx

I missed you, too. :hug:

[Berry Cool]

19. Hi ralps!

Drink up! :toast:

[RevCheesehead]

3. I'm here tonight!!

Start the party! :bounce::bounce: :party: :woohoo: :party: :bounce::bounce:

Hi Berry and everyone! :hi:

[SeattleGirl]

5. REV!!!

And I'm here too!

How are ya, girl? :hi: :loveya: :hug:

[RevCheesehead]

11. Pretty darned good.

I got my bulletins done for Sunday so I can go to see Dad tomorrow. It's his 90th birthday! :party: x 90

[SeattleGirl]

18. Aw, happy birthday to your dad!

:party:

I'm glad you get to see him on his birthday.

[RevCheesehead]

32. I wouldn't miss it for anything.

If it was on a Sunday, I'd take the day off. :evilgrin:
I'll send him your best. :)

[SharonRB]

22. Happy birthday, Cheesy's dad!

:party:

Mine will be 85 on March 9.

[RevCheesehead]

35. My dad's older than your dad!

:P

Happy early b'day to your dad, too! :party:

:hi:

[SharonRB]

55. But I'm older than you!

How did that happen? :crazy:

[RevCheesehead]

60. My mom and dad waited for the very best.

It took them a while to find each other, but it was worth it. :D

[SharonRB]

67. I, on the other hand,

was born 9 months and one day after my parents got married. My dad was 24 when they got married, and my mom was 18.

[RevCheesehead]

71. Right place, right time...

and perfection on the first try! :toast:

[Berry Cool]

28. Happy Birthday to your dad

and enjoy your Saturday!

[RevCheesehead]

39. Aw, thanks Berry!

:party: You'll be there in spirit. :beer:

:hug:

[Berry Cool]

46. I will!

[WolverineDG]

147. Happy Birthday Dad!

:party:

dg

[RevCheesehead]

155. Thanks!

My dad's getting a poppyseed cake tomorrow. I got a friend to bake one for me. :party:
I'll save you a piece.

[Patsy Stone]

157. Wish him the happiest birthday

from the guys and gals of the KOEB. 'k?

:party:

[RevCheesehead]

161. I sure will!

And I'll bring the leftovers on Monday. :party:

[Patsy Stone]

165. Excellent!

(and you're not an asshole, moron) :hug:

[RevCheesehead]

167. Thanks, f'ing idiot!

:hug:

[Patsy Stone]

173. :)

:loveya:

[ralps]

12. Hi RevCheesehead, Crook & I are doing good & Hi to Oreo, CC & lil' Keith! How are you all doing?

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

[RevCheesehead]

42. Hi ralps and Crook!

We're all pretty good. But Oreo's been pesky all day. I think she has spring fever!

:hi: :hug: :loveya:

[Botany]

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

[RevCheesehead]

49. You can tell me over and over and over again.

I'll never get sick of hearing it. :hug:

Dinner for two? Yummy! :9

[Botany]

66. What is a Wisconsin Dinner / Breakfast?

Brats

Beer


Red Roof


Beer

Pancakes

Beer

[Patsy Stone]

73. No cheese?

:shrug:

[RevCheesehead]

76. You forgot two important things:

1. Packers football
2. Polkas

[Patsy Stone]

65. Yeah!

[RevCheesehead]

69. Everybody jump! jump! jump!

:bounce::bounce::bounce::bounce::bounce::bounce::bounce::bounce::bounce::bounce::bounce::bounce::bounce::bounce::bounce::bounce::bounce::bounce::bounce::bounce::bounce::bounce::bounce::bounce::bounce::bounce::bounce::bounce::bounce::bounce::bounce::bounce::bounce::bounce::bounce::bounce:

[RavensChick]

78. Hi, Rev!

Happy Birthday to your dad! May he have a wonderful blessed birthday and many more!

:hi:

[RevCheesehead]

81. Hi Raven!

Thank you, and I agree -- I want to keep him around for a long time!
:hi: :hug:

[SharonRB]

6. Hi, everyone

:hi:

Just vote already, fer chrissakes!

[SeattleGirl]

13. Hi Sharon!

Drinks are upthread! :hi:

[SharonRB]

17. Thanks -- I grabbed one!

[SharonRB]

20. Anyone listen to Nancy doing Randi's show yesterday or today?

Besides Berry, who I know listened yesterday.

[SeattleGirl]

24. OMG, was that Nancy?

I didn't get to listen much; had lots of phone calls at work. Missed the very beginning, so I didn't realize it was her.

[SharonRB]

26. Yup

She identified herself all throughout the show. LOL.

[SeattleGirl]

30. She must have done it during the times I wasn't able to listen.

:crazy:

[SharonRB]

33. Yesterday she only had two hours' notice,

but she did a great job.

[ralps]

29. Hi SharonRB, I listened today! & IMO She did great!

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

[SharonRB]

31. I think so, too!

[Berry Cool]

36. Listened today, too.

She's good, although today she said Obama gave the Repugs a "fig leaf" when I think she meant "olive branch"! (Although a fig leaf is really what they need!)

Felt sorry for her yesterday with that Bushco Admin tool she had on talking about how important it is to wear a coat and a tie in the Oval Office, followed by all the Talking Points(tm) about how Bush prevented another 9/11 (9/11 itself, again, was a gimme), how history would judge him more kindly, yadda yadda yadda.

Uh-oh, Keith just said "Goodness!" You know things are bad when Keith says "Goodness!"

[SharonRB]

63. Yes, she does misspeak occasionally

I caught something either yesterday or today, I don't remember what it was. But, then even KO called Angela Lansbury the wife rather than the mother in "Manchurian Candidate."

[Berry Cool]

126. And misunderstood F. Scott Fitzgerald.

[GigiMommy]

70. Hi Sharon!!!

I missed it. Will try to catch it tonight at midnight.

[SharonRB]

185. I didn't know they ran it again

Or, if you're a Founders Club member, you can download the podcast.

[bleever]

94. It was THAT Nancy?

I only caught a bit, but it sounded good!

[SharonRB]

105. Yup

Nancy Skinner in the flesh. Glad you liked it. Not sure what's happening next week. No one seems to know what's going on with Randi and no one told Nancy.

[Berry Cool]

141. Is Randi holding out for a paycheck or something?

Sounds like funny stuff going on at Nova M.

[SeattleGirl]

142. I'd be surprised. She's pretty savvy when it comes to negotiating

contracts.

[SharonRB]

144. I have absolutely no idea.

She hasn't even been there a year, so it's hard to believe that would be it. Whatever it is, it's pretty strange.

[Patsy Stone]

102. I heard the Randi rerun (was that the day before she started?)

but I didn't tune in yesterday or today to see what was going on. Darn. I really like it when Nancy subs. :(

:hi:, Shar! Shabbat Shalom, shayna madela.

[SharonRB]

107. Yeah, Wednesday was a rerun of Monday

Then Nancy did yesterday and today. She's on standby for next week, but we have no idea what's going on.

[Patsy Stone]

110. Very odd

Maybe she eloped with Howard? :)

I'll listen next week and see if Nancy's there.

[SeattleGirl]

If she did, he'd have to be super special, because she's always

saying she'll never get married again.

[SharonRB]

114. She's pretty serious about him. n/t

[SeattleGirl]

120. So, when did he become her boyfriend. I don't think I had even

heard of him until a few weeks ago when she and her crew started talking about him.

[SharonRB]

124. I think they met over the holidays or thereabouts

She started talking about him around that time.

[SeattleGirl]

128. He must really be something.

[SharonRB]

112. LOL -- that's exactly what a lot of people on her message board are speculating

but I don't think that's it. It's very mysterious.

[Berry Cool]

146. She talks about him more than Keith even talked about Katy on Dan Patrick's show

and in even more rhapsodic tones. It's disgusting. Makes a lot of references to them having sex. As if we want to hear all the details.

[Botany]

25. Keith said the F. word

:rofl:

[Berry Cool]

44. WHAT?!?!?!? MCCAIN is now on the floor denouncing the bill as not being bipartisan enough???

I think I speak for everyone when I say:

GO TO BED, OLD MAN!!!!!!

YOU LOST THE FRIGGIN' ELECTION!!!!!

YOU DON'T GET TO HAVE EVERYTHING YOUR WAY!!!!!

GO HOME!!!!!!

[SeattleGirl]

57. His old man yells at cloud schtick is getting very old, isn't it?

[RavensChick]

92. True dat!

[RevCheesehead]

101. "You lost, old man."

[GigiMommy]

38. Hi All!! Happy Friday!!!

:hi: :bounce: Babysitting tonight (my Nephew) and Cassie's not even here (Girl Scouts Camp). Won't be back until Sunday.:cry:

Oh and Berry: it's Christian BALE not Slater.

[SeattleGirl]

45. Hi Gigi!

Swapped out one kid for another, eh? Hope you have fun with your nephew, and hope Cassie has fun at GS Camp!

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

[GigiMommy]

75. Hi SG!!!

:hi: :bounce: :bounce: :bounce: The Wii is a beautiful thing!

[Berry Cool]

54. Of course I meant Christian Bale.

That's how tired I am! It's lucky I didn't say Jesus Christ! Or Hans Christian Andersen! Or Charlie Crist!

[SeattleGirl]

61. Or Charlie Chaplin

[RevCheesehead]

108. Or Charlie and the Chocolate Factory.

I love that movie.

[Patsy Stone]

84. F**k it! We'll do it LIVE!

:hi:

[GigiMommy]

86. Hey Berry!!!

:hi: :bounce:

[Berry Cool]

158. Hey GGM!

:hi: I'm almost too tired to wave this hand...

[RevCheesehead]

106. Are they baking cookies?

I've got several orders out there. :)

[Patsy Stone]

41. Why does John McCain hate America?

I don't think the man who tried to strip the "buy American" clause from the stimulus bill gets to talk about what's best for America. Also, might I point out, that 31 others voted to pull that clause -- all Republicans except for Joe "Republican lite" mentum.

Republicans suck.

:hi:, everyone! Happy freakin' Friday! :toast:

[Berry Cool]

58. Happy freakin' Friday to you too, Patsela!

:hi: Shabbat Shazzam!

[SeattleGirl]

64. Hapy freakin' Friday to you, too, darlin' Patsy.

There are drinks up thread, if you want one or three. :hi:

[Patsy Stone]

93. I'm gonna take the three

and then I'm gonna walk around the bar and drink whatever drips and drops you all leave in your glasses.

Soooooo happy it's the weekend. :hi:, doll!

[SeattleGirl]

98. So am I!

The office manager and I were doing the "Hooray, it's Friday!" dance this morning at 9:00!

[RavensChick]

68. Happy Friday, everyone!

:toast: :hi:

[SeattleGirl]

74. Hi RC!

Happy Friday!! :hi: :beer:

[Botany]

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

Please don't tell the others


"They" can be soooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo
strange.

[RavensChick]

95. I won't tell the others.

;-)

[SharonRB]

83. I can't get enough of this clip of Bill-O

:rofl:

[Berry Cool]

96. "Bale-O"

OMG, that is hilarious. I mean, the sound alone is a riot, but the video really makes it. It looks as if Billo is actually interacting with and reacting to Christian Bale. Masterfully done. :rofl:

I mean, you knew from moment one someone would mash these together, but this is a truly outstanding job.

[RavensChick]

103. I love it!!

Two morans who obviously love to spaz out at the drop of a dime!

:hi:

[WolverineDG]

87. Happy Friday!

:hi:

dg

[SharonRB]

89. Happy Friday, DG

Did you have a nice birthday the other day?

:hi:

[WolverineDG]

113. Yes I did

we waited to go out to lunch today & they got me a chocolate cake too! :9

dg

[SharonRB]

115. Yummy!

Didn't you save any for us?

[WolverineDG]

138. Yup, it's on my coffee table

Come & get it!

dg

[SeattleGirl]

91. Wolvie!

Good to see you! :hi:

[Berry Cool]

116. We sure have a lovely big group here tonight. Joy!

So we also get Octoplet Mom. Ordinarily I have reservations about telling other people when they should and shouldn't reproduce...but in her case I'll make an exception. :scared:

[WolverineDG]

132. SG!

How's the Pac NW? :hi:

It's in the 80s here. Brrrr....

dg

[SeattleGirl]

139. Pac NW is a bit chilly tonight, but I'm all snugged in so I'm good.

And happy belated birthday! :toast: :party: :toast:

[RavensChick]

109. Hi, Wolvie!

This ESPN story is like, whoa! Somewhere in the hallowed halls of that building two people may have crossed paths and didn't know it. That's some scary shit!

:hi:

[WolverineDG]

129. Makes me wonder who I've walked by

:scared:

:hi:

dg

[RavensChick]

149. Me too.

I did work with one guy who looked like Keith back in the 90's, but I was reassigned before I had a chance to hollar at him. Oh, well. I'm sure he's doing okay, but I wonder sometimes.

[Berry Cool]

164. So, the real question is,

if Keith had worked with Sarah Palin, would he have made her cry in the bathroom? :rofl:

(I hope so)

[RevCheesehead]

119. Happy Birthday, dear woofie!

:party::hug::loveya::fistbump::loveya::hug::party:

[WolverineDG]

127. Cheesy!!

Thanks! :loveya:

Say, am I going to hell because I put a "minister" on ignore this week???

:evilgrin:

dg

[RevCheesehead]

130. Nope.

As long as it isn't me, you're OK. ;)

[WolverineDG]

135. I thought so

said "minister" didn't sound very "minister"-y like.

dg

[RevCheesehead]

143. They're all assholes.

Including me.

[WolverineDG]

160. No you're not

You're special. :hug:

dg

[RevCheesehead]

166. You're supposed to use quotation marks.

You know - "special."
Mr. Rogers told me so. :P

[WolverineDG]

170. well, I didn't want everyone to know you rode the little bus to school

but okaaayyyy.....

:rofl:

dg

[Patsy Stone]

175. Damn!

I was going to make a short bus joke, but you beat me to it.

:rofl:

:hi: :loveya:

[SharonRB]

100. Lindsay Graham just said

"Joe Lieberman has earned the right to say whatever he wants whenever he wants to say it" because of standing up for what he believe in in regards to the war. :puke:

[SeattleGirl]

104. The only thing LIEberman has earned the right to is having

a jock strap or dirty diaper stuffed in his mouth, so he can match Lindsay perfectly.

[RevCheesehead]

117. ...

:rofl:

Touche!

[Patsy Stone]

111. So how did in vitro mom afford the plastic surgery disaster on her face?

Do you think it was part of that $150K+ settlement she got from the State Hospital?

She's crazy, and I don't even need to hear a word she says to know that.

[Berry Cool]

122. Stay classy, Bank of America!

I am so glad I don't have an account with those jerks.

When my mother died, her creditors were essentially told to go hang. I mean, jeez people, giving credit to people in their 70s is a calculated risk. Sometimes they die and don't have an estate for you to be repaid from. Write it off. If you can't, you don't belong in the business.

[RevCheesehead]

125. Don't you think counseling would have been cheaper than babies?

Just my humble opinion. She said she always wanted a very big family because she was an only child.

[SeattleGirl]

131. She's rather strange, I must say.

[Patsy Stone]

145. And that voice!

:crazy:

[RevCheesehead]

150. And those lips!

Looks like Barbara Hershey returned.

[Patsy Stone]

153. It's a bit of a Joker mouth

Wow. N-V-T-S, nuts!

[SeattleGirl]

154. She's obviously OD's on collagen

[RavensChick]

136. Much cheaper.

I don't understand why so many! One or two kids are enough especially in this economy, but gracious! The logic behind her way of thinking is bizarre to say the least!

[RevCheesehead]

159. She better stay off welfare.

I can't believe I said that, but it's how I feel.

[RavensChick]

181. No, you have a point

because the welfare system is overloaded as it is, and her actions will give some woman out there the idea of doing the same thing. That seriously concerns me. There are thousands of families struggling just to make it from day to day, and for one woman to give birth to healthy babies, while it's a blessing, the number is of concern to me.

Case in point, at my church, my pastor comes from a family of 18 brothers and sisters, and only 2 have passed away within the last few years. 16 remain, and they're happy, healthy, and wise, not to mention very, very close. They show love and support in ways no other family I know or heard of can do. This young lady may have her intentions mixed up with something else she may have heard or was taught. I would be glad to have at least one child before I get to old age, and prayerfully I will. For her to flaunt this as some kind of publicity stunt is a huge cry for attention she may not have gotten when she was growing up. Nonetheless, I hope she has a lot of money or will get some kind of financial help 'cause she's gonna have one long road in raising these kids.

[Berry Cool]

168. I heard she's lying about that.

Or at least lying about how alone and isolated she was.

[bleever]

156. Nah, she's just wearing these:

[RevCheesehead]

169. Wow - it even works psychologically!

:rofl:

[ralps]

118. Yay for Keith calling out Andrew Card on his Bulls__t!!!

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

[SharonRB]

121. Nancy had one of Bush's former communications directors on

yesterday to talk about this. What a bunch of bull! The guy sounded like an idiot. Who cares if he doesn't wear a suit and tie? At least he's doing his job. More than I can say for the last guy.

[Berry Cool]

172. I just wanted to take that guy and pound his head against a table.

"ENOUGH with the TALKing points alREADy. We are NOT going to CHANGE our MINDS, HIStory is NOT going to be KIND to BUSH, you idiot YOU."

[Patsy Stone]

177. How about that Republican woman on Steph's show

who compared this loon to Linda Sanchez? That was a scream at the radio interview, huh? Oy.

[SharonRB]

179. She was nucking futz!

Stephie liked it so much she replayed it today.

:rofl:

[Berry Cool]

180. Mona Charen?

She was awful, too. I was like, where did they GET these losers from????

[Patsy Stone]

182. That's the one!

What a self-aggrandizing "I wanna decide who lives and who dies" jerk. The moral majority never really went away, apparently.

[SharonRB]

183. She was awful!

[Patsy Stone]

184. And she was so sure she was right!

That's what was really amazing. So convinced her small minded views were the only right way to see the situation. Also, the nerve of her! What gives her the right to say that Linda Sanchez's fiance will probably end up dumping her instead of marrying her. OMG.

[SeattleGirl]

123. It was great!

Nanny nanny boo boo on you, Andy!

[Patsy Stone]

152. KO totally reads DU

:hi:

[ralps]

133. Today's worst person in the world is Rupert Murdo_h!! Argh!!!!!!!!!

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

[RevCheesehead]

137. Giddy Keith was gleeful!

"Fox News - the company that has never tolerated facts!" :bounce::bounce: :rofl:

[Berry Cool]

140. OMG, Keith really went over the edge doing Rupe's pirate talk tonight!!!!

He's in fine silly fettle tonight! You'd think it was Talk Like a Pirate Day!

[SeattleGirl]

134. Hahahaha! Keith is SO loving that Murdoch comment!

:rofl:

[SeattleGirl]

148. "There's no womb at the inn."

:rofl: :rofl: :rofl:

[Patsy Stone]

163. Hi-larious

:rofl:

[SharonRB]

151. What's up with her mouth?

And when her parents move out, who does she think is going to be there to help her?

[RavensChick]

162. That's a very good question.

There is no way she can possibly take care of 14 children by herself! It's impossible. I only hope she has some friends or family that'll pitch in 'cause caring for twins or triplets is hard enough, but 14?!?! My goodness!

[Patsy Stone]

171. Please, please, please let the Republicans filibuster

please...

Wait, I thought they only need 51 to pass the bill, but 60 to avoid a filibuster no one has any intention of avoiding?

[Berry Cool]

174. Nuclear option! Nuclear option!

They talked about using it so much, I want them hoist on their own petard!

[Patsy Stone]

178. Up or Down vote!

That's the one that kills me.
