KOEB Meeting: 05/27/09 -- We Just Met a Girl Named Maria Edition

[Patsy Stone]

Except her name is Sonia, Mr. Huckabee.

:hi:, all!

[bleever]

1. Why does Newt Gingrich use Tonto's voice on Twitter?

:hi:

[SeattleGirl]

3. Hey bleev!

:hi:

[bleever]

5. bleev say hi.

:hi:

[Patsy Stone]

4. LOL

My first thought was "Where are your articles, Newt?"

Like Truman Capote and Mr. Wang from "Murder By Death".

:hi:

[bleever]

7. White man tweets with forked thumbs.

:hi:

[Berry Cool]

40. Because, Newt is heap big idiot.

:hi: How.

[bleever]

52. Newt big fan of squaws.

He love them short time.

:hi:

[GigiMommy]

75. ...

:hi: :rofl: :rofl: :rofl:

[SeattleGirl]

2. Hi Patsy! Ain't it a sight, seeing all these white men whining about racism?

Good lord, but they just keep stooping lower and lower!

[Patsy Stone]

6. It's sad and funny.

The whole party is such a mess, and they're spiraling downward at such a rapid pace, each day is a new low. Also, the RWers favorite tactic is to take your biggest flaw and project it on your opponent.

:hi:

[SeattleGirl]

8. They definitely have taken projection to a new level.

[Berry Cool]

41. They are so good at projection

they should be showing movies at the drive-in.

[SeattleGirl]

46. snerk!

Great idea!

[GigiMommy]

9. Hi Everybody!!! Keith's not mincing words. Woo hoo!

:hi: :bounce: :bounce: :bounce: :bounce: :bounce: :rofl:

[SeattleGirl]

13. Hi Gigi!!

No, he's not!

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

[GigiMommy]

22. Hi SG!!!

:hi: Cassie liked the creatures with their tongues sticking out. She said they were lizards.

[SeattleGirl]

30. They're actually frogs, but yeah, they do look a bit like lizards.

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

[SharonRB]

10. Hi, all

Just had to answer a few e-mails for work, but I'm here.

:hi:

[SeattleGirl]

16. Hi Sharon!

Thought of you today; saw a little Smart car exactly like yours! :hi:

[SharonRB]

21. I saw a yellow one on my way to work this morning

:hi:

[GigiMommy]

25. Hi Sharon!!!

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

[SharonRB]

27. Hi, Gigi

:hi:

[RevCheesehead]

11. How can entire boxes of my stuff have disappeared?

Hi, I'm trying to get going on the packing, and there's tons of crap I can't find. :(

:hi:

[SharonRB]

15. Hi, Rev

:hi:

[RevCheesehead]

17. Hi Sharon!

:hi:

[bleever]

18. I blame the kitties.

:hi:

Good luck with your packing!

[RevCheesehead]

24. I agree. CC was watching me too closely.

And he had to jump on every box, and knock everything off the table, and....

:hi:

[Berry Cool]

59. That's how cats "provide assistance."

:grr:

[RevCheesehead]

89. Yeah... so far, he's "assisted" my glasses to the

bathroom floor, my medicine to the bedroom floor, any loose change to wherever he wants,.... :eyes:

[Berry Cool]

99. Yeah, I know.

Makes you want to move and, um, "forget" the cats.

But do I? I do not. Moved my two across two states, with Bella moaning and howling like a hound dog every mile of the trip.

[SeattleGirl]

19. Rev, you find a place to live?

:hi:

[RevCheesehead]

28. Nope.

But I can't let that stop me. Right now, the goal is major downsizing.

:hi:

[SeattleGirl]

34. That's a good thing to do now and then, but yow, it's a pain in the

backside, isn't it?

[RevCheesehead]

39. Like you wouldn't believe.

A friend reminded me today that this move is very different for me, because I'm making a major life change. I added, "yeah, and it's the first one without my Mom to talk to... and Dad can't remember." :(

I'm really trying not to panic. x(

[SeattleGirl]

48. Aw, that's gotta make it even more difficult!

I'm sorry, honey. We never get over needing our moms, do we? :hug:

[SharonRB]

49. No, we don't.

:hug:

[RevCheesehead]

50. Thanks, R.

:hug::hug::hug:

[Patsy Stone]

56. Nope.

Never.

[SharonRB]

It's really weird

I think all of us have lost our mothers -- at least most of us.

[SeattleGirl]

60. I know.

:cry:

[Berry Cool]

79. I will add to the "never" chorus

although if my mom could have seen my last move, she'd just have yelled at me.

[SeattleGirl]

81. My mom probably would have laughed.

:)

[SharonRB]

83. Mine would have helped me pack

when she was physically up to it.

[SeattleGirl]

Mine too. But she would also laugh, as I tend to charge into something

full bore without always paying attention to exactly what it is I'm doing!

[SharonRB]

86. I wouldn't have wanted mine to help

She would have been appalled at some of the junk we have around. I really do need to go room by room and get rid of stuff one of these days.

[SeattleGirl]

90. I don't even want to THINK about the crap I need to get rid of!

:scared:

[SharonRB]

92. I keep holding onto clothes that I know I'll never fit into again

but I just keep hoping for a miracle and I love some of them too much.

[Berry Cool]

102. You're not the only one.

I will probably have an entire closet full of "the past" when I finally get my clothes completely organized.

[RevCheesehead]

97. Do yourself a BIG favor,

and get rid of it now. You'll thank yourself later. Trust me.

Oh, and the workers at Goodwill will be thrilled! I dropped off about a dozen garbage bags full of clothes, and the guy just about wet his pants with joy. :P

[GigiMommy]

76. ...

:hug: I have Mom but I miss Dad.

[Botany]

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

Good luck w/ the move .... do not forget to pack your Bay Air

[RevCheesehead]

106. Thank you, Cuddles.

:hug:

[Berry Cool]

70. I know it's hard. And I hate moving like poison.

I just couldn't face up to all the packing alone this past time. The moving guys packed at least three-quarters of my stuff for me at the last minute. Disorganization was me.

[RevCheesehead]

103. That's it exactly: alone.

It's a very lonely task.

[Berry Cool]

110. And you know, some of my sisters helped, and it STILL was too much for me to face?

Maybe I shouldn't've listened to the VP debate while packing. Listening to Sarah Palin say "doggone it" only makes a bad situation worse.

[Patsy Stone]

23. Maybe a dingo ate your boxes?

:hi:

[RevCheesehead]

31. I blame the house elves.

Or maybe it was the church mice.
:hi:

[Patsy Stone]

42. If you're trying to downsize

and (hopefully) it wasn't important stuff, let's call it a miracle and leave it at that.

[RevCheesehead]

47. OK.

You're good for my blood pressure. :hug:

[Patsy Stone]

54. Tell me

What kind of car do you suppose Mr Ehrensperger drives/drove?

I'm going to guess it was an El Camino Ranchero.

:hug:

[RevCheesehead]

95. VW Bus.

Powder blue, with lots of rust.

:hug:

[GigiMommy]

32. Hi Rev!!!

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

[RevCheesehead]

35. Hi Gigi and Cassie!

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

[Berry Cool]

58. Hi Rev! You will find it eventually! I did!!

:hi: Did you catch Keith's love for both of us last night??? :loveya:

[RevCheesehead]

105. Yes!

I am a metaphor for life itself. O8)

[Berry Cool]

108. That you are, my dear.

:hug: and I should call you soon, if it will lift your spirits any.

[SharonRB]

12. And we heard it here first

Strange bedfellows.

[Patsy Stone]

20. Right?

:hi:, Keith! :loveya: ::call me::

:hi:, Shar!

[WolverineDG]

14. Details details

just cuz they all look alike to huckleberry.....

:hi:

dg

[Patsy Stone]

26. Does that mean your cable's back?

:Hi:

[WolverineDG]

33. yes, came back at 8:30 last night

after getting down to -27. Still have NO idea what that means.

dg

[Patsy Stone]

45. Degrees Kelvin?

Technology will make our lives easier, or so they tell me.

[SeattleGirl]

38. Hi Wolvie!

Glad your cable's back! :hi:

[ralps]

29. Hi Patsy! Hi Everyone!

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

[Berry Cool]

37. Hi! I guessed that quote was from Alito before Keith said so!

:hi: Pat me on the back!

My tummy is delicate tonight so I'm putting off dinner. Drinking coffee laced with International Delights in the Chocolate Eclair limited edition instead. :9

Ed...or did he say it was Scalia? Hard to tell 'em apart...

[SeattleGirl]

43. Hi Berry!

:hi:

Hope you feel better soon!

[Berry Cool]

71. Thanks SG!!

I do appreciate it.

[ralps]

68. Hi Berry Cool

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

[Berry Cool]

72. Hi ralps!

[GigiMommy]

78. Hi Berry!!!

:hi: :bounce: :bounce: :bounce: :bounce: :bounce: Tough game last night.

[Berry Cool]

107. Hi GGM. And Cassie.

:hi: Tough game every night. Mo Williams shows up for two quarters and thinks he's done his job. *sigh* Still no solution for all the 3-pointers. *sigh* Dwight Howard still unstoppable (the NBA even rescinded one of his technical fouls so now he probably runs no risk of having to miss a game). *sigh*

Sports heartbreak...the story of the Cleveland fan's life. Never happiness, only disappointment. Basketball...baseball (the Indians already suck too badly to amount to anything)...football (although Browns fans show up every year like it's gonna somehow be different)...and we have no major league hockey so nobody cares. :shrug:

Not gonna see a team win a championship, ever. I am resigned to it. Eventually, unless this Chinese deal makes a big difference, LeBron will eventually move on to a city where he doesn't have to try to win his rings by scoring every point and defending every man himself.

[GigiMommy]

44. Hi Ralps!!!

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

[ralps]

53. Hi GigiMommy! & Cassie!!

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

[SeattleGirl]

57. Hi ralps!

:hi:

[ralps]

63. Hi SeattleGirl!!!

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

[Patsy Stone]

65. Hi!

Happy Wednesday, ralps and Crook!

[Patsy Stone]

36. I know it was you, Fredo.

You broke my heart.

[GigiMommy]

51. Hi Patsy!!!

:rofl:

[Patsy Stone]

55. Hey, GG!

:hi:, Cassie!

[GigiMommy]

61. And he was a Rapper too!

(on MJ's Thriller)

[Patsy Stone]

64. Keith's going to show the "authentic frontier gibberish" scene from Blazing Saddles.

LOL!

Where's Botany?

[Botany]

66. Right here ..... I was going to the pool ..... but I joined the KOEB instead

[Patsy Stone]

69. Wise man

74. Through out your hands, stick out your tush, hands on your hips .....

[Berry Cool]

67. That was TOO hilarious. I am about to pee my pants.

Oh, and I like this new "You are now watching Countdown" thing MSNBC is doing, but it does have the unfortunate effect of showing how quickly Keith has aged in five short years. A lot grayer and a lot heavier.

But still our Keith. :loveya:

[GigiMommy]

73. RACHEL!!!

:loveya: :loveya: :loveya:

[Berry Cool]

77. I guess I will never be a Supreme Court justice.

My name is too hard to pronounce.

But if I get a bad Donald Trump combover, I CAN be a congressman from Texas. I gather.

[Botany]

80. to hard to pronounce?

last name
So toe my your

1st name
Maa REE ah

[SharonRB]

84. Actually...

[Botany]

[SharonRB]

100. I see it

many, many times. One of my favorites.

[Botany]

104. maybe Maria So toe my YOUR can settle the sharks v jets thing.

[Berry Cool]

112. She's just a Latin spitfire, that Sotomayor!

What with eating her pigs' ears and feet and knuckles and stuff!!

[ralps]

82. Today's worst person in the world is Mark Crocorian(sp?) for complaining about

Judge SotoMayor's name! WTF? :hi: :loveya: :hug: :pals: :woohoo: :rofl:

[RevCheesehead]

85. Good news!

I found my mom's recipe file. It's a shoebox size, and I was heartbroken, thinking it might have been lost!

[SharonRB]

87. Yay!

:hug:

[SeattleGirl]

88. Yay!!!!

:bounce: :bounce:

[GigiMommy]

91. Yay!!!

[Patsy Stone]

113. Yes!

It IS a miracle. :bounce:

[Berry Cool]

114. Oh happy day!!!

See!!! It does eventually show up...it didn't sprout legs and run away from ya.

Only a few months ago, I discovered a whole stash of Christmas ornaments I could not find back in December to save my damn life. I had been afraid they got lost, but could not fathom how.

[GigiMommy]

93. MAN this guy sounds dumb.

[Patsy Stone]

94. "Fundamentally, the right of privacy is fundamental."

Well, that's a fact.

[Berry Cool]

96. OMG, what the WHAT was he tryin' to say?????

He just kept walking in a circle convoluted into a figure eight into a goddamn mess!

"Now who can argue with that?" indeed! :rofl:

[Patsy Stone]

109. LOL!

"I'm particularly glad that these lovely children were here today to hear that speech. Not only was it authentic frontier gibberish, but it expressed a courage little seen in this day and age!"

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ke5Mr5eCF2U

[Botany]

101. Cross State LInes?

OMG

[Patsy Stone]

111. Forget it, he's rolling.

:crazy:

[Berry Cool]

115. "Was it over when the homosexuals violated the Tenth Amendment?"

"It's not over until WE say it's over!"

Oh...and Keith said "private sexual behavior." :loveya:

[bleever]

116. (Exeunt humming "The Battle Hymn of the Republic".)

And, if I may: "Fat, drunk, and Republican is no way to go through life, Son. Not anymore."
