4. That was funny.
It's so nice not having a mumbling psycho representing us.

President Cuckoobananas never could have pulled this off, and he wouldn't have tried.

9. Was listening to the radio on the way home, and this former CIA
guy was talking about how Bush never would or could do something like Obama did. All his speeches were aimed at his base, regardless of where he was speaking.

12. Did you happen to hear the last hour of Randi's show today?
I just wondered if she mentioned whether she was going to NY for the Talkers convention tomorrow and Saturday.

14. Unfortunately, I missed most of it because I had to make a lot of
phone calls.

26. Were you listening when she had Randall Terry on yesterday?
I knew before it started that would not end well. Typically, it turned into a shouting match and she eventually hung up on him. No defense of him, but she needs to learn how to talk to these people without losing it completely.

30. I did. In fact, I posted about it at the end of the KOEB thread yesterday.
Terry didn't do himself any favors either, of course, especially when he started yipping like a dog.

But yeah, Randi needs to take a deep breath now and then, though honestly, I'm not sure I could have had a calm conversation with Terry at all.

33. No, he didn't, but she was out of control
It makes her no better than Limpballs -- just with the right point of view. She lost it with a caller today, too.

36. Oh dear, I hate it when she gets that way.
She's so smart, and she is usually armed with so many facts. She really doesn't need to go ballistic on people.

59. I hear she was once again implying she knows "secrets" about Al Franken
that no one else knows. She's as bad about him as she is about Keith, and I swear it's a personal vendetta and nothing more.

Which is a shame, because there are some things I like about her, but the others started to drive me too nuts.

I did catch Rachel's brief wrapup of "Things Presidents Never Say" and thought it was pretty cool.

13. I'm good!
What I've heard so far is pretty good.

Someone in GD-Pee (probably Jackeens) posted this very cool pic thread of people all over that region watching Obama's speech on TV. I don't think that would have happened had Chimpy McCokespoon been speaking.

23. Okay, I'm sorry but......
first we get bombarded by commercials for ED, and NOW they are starting to bombard us with commercials for "Low-T"??????

Hey fellas, "Low-T" has an identifiable cause: It's called AGING!!!

I'm really getting sick of these commercials!

61. I gather the "T" doesn't stand for T-ball?
They should see what it's like to be a woman with "Hi-T"! Agh!!! It's the one thing about being half Italian I could gladly live without (except that you never have to worry about low sex drive...of course, for an elderly shut-in, that's really more of a drawback)

He said he's actually FOR the preservation of Tiger Stadium and had been fighting for that.

63. OK, here's my favorite Keith moment of the night.
It was during the bumper tease when he was talking about his Worst Person who thinks the biggest threat America faces--bigger than terrorism, the economy, or probably even swine flu--is "the liberal media." At the very end as he was going off air, he made this face of utter consternation, bit into one of the pages of his script, and came away with a piece in his mouth.

I soon did the same with a page of draft from the project I'm working on tonight.

It made me feel much better.

Thank you, Keith. :loveya:
