[SharonRB]

1. Shabbat Shalom and Happy V-Day

:hi:

[Patsy Stone]

You too!

Oh, crap. W is on Facebook? There's a friend request I can skip sending.

[SharonRB]

3. I didn't think he even knew how to turn a computer on

[SeattleGirl]

7. He probably had the twins set it up.

Hi Sharon! :hi:

[SharonRB]

10. Hi.

:hi:

[GigiMommy]

87. ...

:rofl:

[SharonRB]

2. 43 is Twittering?

:rofl:

Since when is he technically savvy?

[Patsy Stone]

4. Keith with the dots and the stripes again

And a periwinkle shirt? Bleccch.

[WolverineDG]

40. It's the Boss Hijack Suit

He's wearing it just for me. :loveya:

At least it's not stripes on stripes on stripes.... :crazy:

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

[SeattleGirl]

11. Hi ralps! Happy Valentines day

[ralps]

15. Hi SeattleGirl!!! thanks

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

[RevCheesehead]

46. Awww!

How sweet!
Hugs to you and Crook, from me & the fur-babies! :hug::loveya:

[Patsy Stone]

94. You too, ralps!

And a very meowy Valentine's Day to Crook!

[SeattleGirl]

6. Hi Patsy! Happy Friday all! The bar is OPEN!!

[Patsy Stone]

8. Ooooh...

Yummy fried goodness! :bounce:

Thanks, SG! :toast:

[SeattleGirl]

12. You're welcome!

[SharonRB]

9. Thanks, SG

and you brought food tonight, too.

:hi:

[SeattleGirl]

13. Yep, I'm hungry, and thought I'd share!

[SharonRB]

16. That was sweet of you!

[GigiMommy]

85. Hi SG!!! Oh yummy!!!

:wow: :bounce: :bounce: :bounce: :bounce: :bounce:

[SharonRB]

14. Who heard that ass Scott Wheeler

on with Nancy today? Typical Republican. Only knows how to yell, not have a civilized discussion. Nancy had trouble getting a word in.

[SeattleGirl]

17. Wasn't able to listen, but I think someone in GD posted something

about it.

Stupid asshats. Think that if they yell loud enough, they'll win.

Blech.

[SharonRB]

18. Fox programming note

Nancy will be on Huckabee's show tomorrow night -- in studio in New York. I know it's Fox, but the Huckster isn't as bad as most of them. It airs at 8 p.m. ET.

[SeattleGirl]

19. Good for her!

And you're right; Huckabee is no where near as bad as most of the Fox crew.

[SharonRB]

21. They called while she was on air on Wednesday.

[SeattleGirl]

23. Very nice! Guess that means they were listening to her.

[SharonRB]

25. Not necessarily, but possibly

She had her cell phone on vibrate and they just happened to call.

[SeattleGirl]

26. I see.

Still, it's good they want to have her on.

[SharonRB]

28. Yes.

She does Fox a lot, but usually remotely from here. It's cool that she's on her way to NY to do the Huckster's show in person.

[SharonRB]

37. I'd love for everyone to go to this link

http://www.mediabistro.com/tvnewser/msnbc/msnbc_looking_to_add_new_10pmet_show_106545.asp

And write something in the comments supporting Nancy to get the 10 p.m. slot on MSNBC.

I actually think Nancy and Sam would be a great duo for a show that would be a little different from Countdown and Rachel's show.

[SeattleGirl]

38. Ooooh, I like that idea, Sharon!

Don't know Nancy real well, but from what I've heard of her on the radio, she's good. And I love Sam. That would be a great duo.

[SharonRB]

43. I think they'd play really well off of each other

And they could go up against two Repukes at a time and wallop them. I just think that another show similar to Keith and Rachel is too much repetition. As it is, Keith and Rachel cover a lot of the same stuff. They need something different to draw in the audience, IMO.

[SeattleGirl]

47. Agreed. And it would be nice to see a show with two hosts on it.

I love Rachel and Keith, and wouldn't trade them for anything, but you're right. MSNBC needs a show that has a different format than those two.

[SharonRB]

50. Now if only you and I made the decisions...

I'm torn -- selfishly, I'd rather see Nancy get a radio show so she wouldn't have to move, but I know she'd really love her own TV show.

[Patsy Stone]

24. Wow!

She's everywhere! More power to her. I missed that guy today, but I heard a few minutes of the aftermath.

[SharonRB]

20. There's my governor!

:loveya:

[SeattleGirl]

22. You've got a good one, and thankfully, so do I.

[SharonRB]

27. I sure do

I wish she'd be around long enough to get out of this economic disaster, but she's term limited and can't run in 2010.

[SeattleGirl]

29. OMG. You guys getting the "global warming is a hoax" commercial?

Jeebus!

No, buddy. You and your Republican asshats claims of caring about the American people is a hoax!

[Patsy Stone]

32. I had a Religulous commercial

Which is sort of the exact opposite. Thankfully, I haven't seen it. :mad:

[SeattleGirl]

33. The Religious commercial came on right after the hoax commercial

[Patsy Stone]

45. Not here

Keith to Bill, no RW propaganda in the creamy center.

[SeattleGirl]

49. Lucky you.

I think the hoax commercial was dreamed up by one of the basement dwellers.

[RevCheesehead]

55. I saw that.

Stupidity, apparently, has lots of extra money to spend. :eyes:

[SeattleGirl]

57. Apparently so.

:eyes:

[SharonRB]

30. This is funny

I think Beverly Eckert looks like Felicity Huffman, but I couldn't remember Felicity's real name, so I did a search on Lynette Scavo and found this site: http://desperate.wikia.com/wiki/Lynette_Scavo

Who knew Desperate Housewives had its own wiki? :rofl:

[bleever]

31. Happy Valentine's Day to all EDVs and their Buddy.

:hi:

[SeattleGirl]

34. snerk

:spray:

[RevCheesehead]

35. What a hell of a week!

I'm here, but pretty pooped. How are you all doing? :hi: :hug: :loveya:

[SeattleGirl]

39. REV!

Got some drinks and appetizers upthread. Just what you need!

[RevCheesehead]

44. Excellent!

Just what I need... thanks! :beer:

:hug::loveya:

[SeattleGirl]

51. You're quite welcome!

:loveya: :loveya:

[ralps]

48. 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]

53. LOL!

I think we posted at the same time! :)

We're good, thanks! Hope you are, too. :hug::loveya:

[Patsy Stone]

59. Good; and glad it's Friday!

Happy Valentines Day, Rev! :loveya:

[RevCheesehead]

61. And to you, too, sweet Patsella!

:loveya:

[WolverineDG]

89. Cheesy!!

:loveya: :hi:

dg

[RevCheesehead]

91. Woofie!

Do you have a tourniquet? I just sliced off a chunk of my thumb while shredding cabbage. x(

:hi: :hug::loveya:

[SeattleGirl]

93. Ouch!

I cut myself really badly one night years ago; could not get it to stop bleeding, so I walked to the hospital that my apartment building was next to.

Talk about living in the right place at the right time!

[RevCheesehead]

99. I have two very tight bandages wrapped around my thumb.

It's turning purple. :P

[WolverineDG]

98. No, but I'll go get Bleev

he can :* it & make it all better....if not, he'll whip up some alcoholic concoction that will knock you out in no time flat.... your pick.....

dg

[RevCheesehead]

101. I'll take the booze, thanks.

No offense, Bleev. ;)

[GigiMommy]

92. REV!!!

:hi: :bounce: :hug: It's great that you're here!

[RevCheesehead]

102. Hi Gigi and Cassie!

It's great to see you too! :hi: :bounce::bounce:

[WolverineDG]

36. Happy Single Person's Awareness Day!

:hi:

:loveya: to all my KOEB peeps!

dg

[RevCheesehead]

41. Really? That's pretty cool.

Do we get presents? :bounce::bounce:

[SeattleGirl]

42. Wolvie!

Good to see you!

[Patsy Stone]

52. LOL!

:hi:

[SeattleGirl]

54. Bwahahahaha!

That made me laugh out loud. srsly

:rofl:

[Patsy Stone]

63. The eyes

are a riot.

:rofl:

[WolverineDG]

64. Hey, treat me with some respect

I was quoted in a doctoral dissertation thingy-doohicky-whatever (page 209 or 210)

http://www.democraticunderground.com/discuss/duboard.php?az=view_all&address=389x5043531

DR dg

[Patsy Stone]

70. Congrats, Dr!

:toast: :)

My genius still remains under-appreciated by doctoral candidates. :(

[WolverineDG]

77. Yeah, well she picked the post where I told Bill Kristol to fuck off

:blush:

Not something I want to post on my wall, know what I mean?

dg

[Patsy Stone]

56. "Pelosi's Mouse"

It sounds like a parable or a philosophy lesson or maybe a paradox. What it isn't is true.

[RevCheesehead]

58. Jimmeh!!!

:loveya::loveya::loveya:

[Patsy Stone]

60. The very model of a modern ex-president.

:hi:, President Carter!

[SharonRB]

62. Well, I guess it's official now

http://www.novamradio.com/live/rhodes_about.php

[Patsy Stone]

65. That's as clear as mud.

Who's Anita?

[WolverineDG]

67. One of the co-owners of NovaM nt

[SeattleGirl]

68. Anita Drobney. She and her husband Sheldon started Nova M

[SharonRB]

78. Sorry --

Anita and Sheldon Drobny are the owners of NovaM. They were the original founders of Air America.

[WolverineDG]

66. Bye Randi!

Sorry, I got sick of all the "Keith Olbermann steals from me" whining.

dg

[SeattleGirl]

71. That always annoyed me too, but overall, I like her a lot.

[RevCheesehead]

69. Do you have any idea what the issue is?

Oh, and Happy V-Day Sharon! :loveya:

[SharonRB]

88. Nope.

I assume some kind of contract issue, but I also assume that eventually Randi will let people know. I'm sure she already knows what she's going to be doing -- possibly just a local show in Florida (which hopefully will be streamed). Randi doesn't make a change without a plan.

[Patsy Stone]

72. Hey! Thanks for the hearts!

:loveya:

[RevCheesehead]

73. I hope they have a "Moran" heart!

"This is Hugh" :rofl:

[WolverineDG]

105. Yes to Hugh

No to Moran & KOEB :grr:

dg

[Patsy Stone]

106. For a second there

I wondered if it was. :)

[RevCheesehead]

74. I knew that Carter/Clinton feud was bullshit.

Thanks for clarifying, Jimmy.

[SeattleGirl]

76. So did I.

Stupid gossip mongers just have to stir the pot, don't they?

[RevCheesehead]

82. Freeper entertainment.

At least this one was torture-free. :eyes:

[SeattleGirl]

84. Yeah, one of the few that was.

[GigiMommy]

75. Happy Friday Everybody and Happy Valentine's Day!!!!!!

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

[SeattleGirl]

80. Happy Friday, Gigi!

And happy Valentine's Day!

[Patsy Stone]

79. Keith asks Jimmy about the Clinton-hating bruhaha

Jimmy says it's nothing and they had already said hi to the Clintons, kissing ensued, and all is well. Well, that just either saved another hundred threads or started them.

Jimmy Carter: Countdown viewer! :patriot:

[bleever]

81. Attention, Canadian Neighbors: please arrest * at the border.

That's all we ask.

Thank you.

[SeattleGirl]

86. We would be forever grateful to them.

[GigiMommy]

90. They could do it at the Detroit/Windsor tunnel.

INSTANT FAME. TALK ABOUT BECOMING A TOURIST ATTRACTION!!!


:hi: Hi Bleever!

[Patsy Stone]

83. There are two Republicans in the cabinet, Keith.

Not just LaHood. Robert Gates is still there.

[Patsy Stone]

95. #1 Tweety Turd

:rofl:

[SharonRB]

96. I can sooner believe Kkkarl is tweeting

than 43.

[Patsy Stone]

97. If I had been on this hunting trip

I'd have shot myself.

[SeattleGirl]

100. Long as you don't end up apologizing to Darth Cheney

:P

[WolverineDG]

103. Sorry I got in the way of your gun

you drunken son of a bitch.

Surprisingly, that gentleman is no longer active in GOP politics, nor does he donate to GOP campaigns. Wonder why? :think:

dg

[Patsy Stone]

104. ...

:rofl:

[Berry Cool]

107. Sorry to be late, kiddies.

Had to go out with one of the sibs. Just got done watching my tape of Keith. He rocked as usual.

That "global warming is a myth" ad was damn bloody stupid--I could tell just from FF'ing through it.

A beautiful piece of writing Keith did tonight on the plane crash story. :cry:

I'm glad he didn't get all Valentiney tonight. I couldn't have stood it. I liked it so much better in the old days when he used to deliberately do "Love Stinks" segments so the other singles could commiserate with him.

Wish I knew more about what's going on with Randi. Now I'm even more curious.

Oh well. Sorry I missed you all. But you know I love youse, don't cha????
