[SharonRB]

3. Happy New Year!

Where is everyone?

:hi:

[Patsy Stone]

5. Happy 2010, Shar!

I have no idea where they've all gone off to. I'm thinking about food, myself. Maybe they're eating? :)

[ralps]

4. Hi Patsy! Hi Everyone! I hope you all had a very Happy New Year's Eve & Day!

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

[Patsy Stone]

6. Quite lovely, thanks!

How was yours? Did teh kitteh have fun? :hi:

[ralps]

11. Yes he did!

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

[Berry Cool]

9. Same to you, ralps! And all of you!

And now that Keith's back, it's going to go better.

[ralps]

[WolverineDG]

7. Happy New Year!!

:hi:

[Berry Cool]

8. I'm here. You think I'd miss Top Cat's return??

:hi: But "Quick Comments"? Keith's going to be brief? KEITH???

Oh well, he just gave his first, and he did it. Somehow!

Adding: I wonder whether this "Quick Comments" idea was his (he wants to rant more) or someone else's. He always said he didn't want to overdo the Special Comments.

I ask the same question Lisa Douglas does: "What IS the purpose of Dick Cheney?"

[GigiMommy]

10. Wow, Happy New Year!

I come in right when Keith's calling out someone as a traitor. Welcome 2010. I hope it's much much better than 2009. :hi: :bounce: :bounce: :bounce: :bounce: :bounce:

[Berry Cool]

18. Hi, GGM! And Cassie!

:hi: He was calling Dick Cheney a traitor. Very appropriate.

[GigiMommy]

40. Hi Berry!!!

Happy New Year and thanks.:hi:

[SharonRB]

25. Happy new year, Gigi and Cassie

Can't be much worse than 2009.

It's off to a rousing start on this end. My company's merger is complete and today was Day One of our new company. And my kitchen construction has begun. By the middle of next week or so it should be done. Then the work of putting everything away will begin.

New company: http://www.towerswatson.com

[Berry Cool]

31. Wow, Sha-Sha, you got some upheavals going on!

But :hi: Happy New Year anyway!

[SharonRB]

34. Thanks, Berry

same to you.

At least they're good upheavals. For now, anyway. The kitchen should be permanently good. The work thing could go either way ultimately.

[GigiMommy]

42. Hi Sharon!!!

Happy New Year!!! Didn't I use to see one of those companies' name on a high rise in Southfield?:hi:

[SharonRB]

47. Yup

Watson Wyatt Worldwide is up there now, but not for long. The sign will come down in the near future. We're staying in our current offices, but I'm not sure when the new sign will be going up.

:hi:

[Patsy Stone]

49. Best of luck in your new (old) endeavor

and here's a hug for the kitchen repair. :hug: May it be over soon, and may it be a grand success. Amen.

[Berry Cool]

55. Same here.

[SharonRB]

61. I'll post pics when it's done

You should see the ugly wallpaper we found behind the upper cabinets. You can see it here on Facebook: http://www.facebook.com/SharonBaseman?ref=mf#/photo.php?pid=4458949&id=552554072&fbid=272048799072

[RevCheesehead]

12. Forgive me, but ...

Un-fucking-believable!!! :banghead::banghead::banghead:

I just can't believe what I'm hearing anymore. Jesus. Help us.


:hi: um, hi?

[Botany]

15. Cheney started a war to make money he is total scum

BTW did I ever tell you that you are my FAVE?



Brats, beer, and cheese soup.

[RevCheesehead]

22. Oh, Cuddles....

You're too good to me! :hug:

[Berry Cool]

20. I assume, O Cheesy One, you refer to the words of Darth Cheney?

:hi: He IS un-fucking-believable.

[RevCheesehead]

And,

I was listening to Randi on the way home tonite.

Is there really a person named Hosenballs? That's GOT to be the Onion. please.
otherwise, this country is being run by teenage boys.

[Botany]

14. Happy New Year to all.

Now why would some people let the Notorious U.F.A. (Umar Farouk Abdulmutallab) through?

Answer ..... Michael Chertoff stands to make a pile of money on selling total body screeners to all the airports.

http://www.democraticunderground.com/discuss/duboard.php?az=view_all&address=389x7391744 best post ever by a really smart and good looking guy.


******************

Zsa Zsa looked good tonight!

[Berry Cool]

17. I liked the question Keith asked about why Captain Underpants left the bathroom at all.

He could have taken a page from Ralph Fiennes: If things are going good in there, stay inside.

[RevCheesehead]

32. Voldemort speaks the truth, occasionally.

Stop the world, please. I'm dizzy.

[RevCheesehead]

19. ding**ding**ding**ding**ding

You are absolutely right.

I'll go you one better: this one smells of Dick all over it. And turd blossoms.

[Botany]

26. But Chertoff has the people in place who could miss a man that was ....

.... on a terror watch list on purpose .... A $399.00 used dell lap top could have spotted the notorious U.F.A.

[RevCheesehead]

37. It's the new KBR/Halliburton.

And all those fucks who are invested in it should be fired. :grr:

[Berry Cool]

27. Well, Chertoff can just forget looking at my nude body and getting money from me for it.

I'm too busy making Donald Rumsfeld rich buying Diet Coke with NutraSweet.

[Patsy Stone]

16. I had that same bathroom question myself

Something doesn't compute there. Hi, Bot, Berry, GG and Rev! Nice to see all of you!

[WolverineDG]

21. generally, when one has exploding underwear

the bathroom is *the* place to be.

:hi:

dg

[Berry Cool]

29. Well, that's where most of us prefer to stay when we have that problem, anyway.

:hi: We don't head from the bathroom to a seat with a blanket complaining about our upset stomach. Quite the reverse, usually.

[Patsy Stone]

41. Nice one!

:rofl:

Hi, you! Happy New Year! :hi:

[Berry Cool]

23. Happy New Year, Pats!

:hi: I just saw a picture of a man's skivvies that I never wanted to see. :scared:

[Patsy Stone]

51. I'm so sorry.

Happy 2010 to you, too! :toast: How are you feeling?

[Berry Cool]

57. Better than I was.

The Keflex reinforcements seem to be working, slowly.

[GigiMommy]

48. Hi Patsy!!!

Happy New Year to you!:hi:

[Patsy Stone]

50. May it be wonderful and prosperous for all of us!

:toast:

[SeattleGirl]

24. Howdy all, and a happy new year!

If I had a wish for the new year, it would be that Dick Cheney go back to his undisclosed location on a permanent basis!

:hi: :toast:

[SharonRB]

28. I second that one

:hi:

[SeattleGirl]

30. Hey Sharon!

Has there ever been a former VP that came out like Darth Cheney, bashing the new Administration like he has? I can't recall one. Even Dubya is acting classier than Dick!

[SharonRB]

35. Not that I'm aware of.

I wish Darth would take a lesson from Shrub and just stay under wraps.

[SeattleGirl]

38. He's still trying to have the last word, isn't he?

[Berry Cool]

33. The motion passes!

Just. Go. Away. DICK.

[SeattleGirl]

36. Hi Berry!

If only we ruled the world, huh?

[Berry Cool]

39. Hi SG! Happy New Year!

:hi: Yeah, if only that could be arranged!

[Berry Cool]

43. Looks like Rachel's show is a must tonight also.

She's going to connect the dots of Republican LIHOP and how they are taking advantage of the latest "terra" scare. After she does, I suspect there'll be more than one stained set of skivvies around.

[SeattleGirl]

45. Definitely a must watch!

Holy cow! I'm glad that the WH is going to look into this!

Edited to add: I know there are a lot of Bush/Cheney appointees still haunting the halls of the agencies that are SUPPOSED to watch for this kind of thing. Maybe, maybe, there will finally be some well-needed house cleaning!

[Patsy Stone]

44. Or to Hell.

Either would work for me. :hi:, SG! Happy New Year!

[SeattleGirl]

46. I think hell IS his undisclosed location!

Hi ya, Patsy! :hi:

[ralps]

52. Today's worst person in the world is Brett Bozelle!(sp?) for dissing Ed Schultz! &

comparing him to Rush Limpballs!! :hi: :loveya: :hug: :pals: :woohoo: :rofl:

[SeattleGirl]

53. Ha! Schultz would have Brett for a snack!

[Berry Cool]

54. The KOOS is really short. Barely touches his shirt collar.

Less softness for me to fantasize about touching. :(

[Patsy Stone]

56. Aw...

C'mere... It'll grow. :hug:

[Berry Cool]

65. So will other things

I hope. :evilgrin:

[Patsy Stone]

58. Oh, Brit Hume...

What an asshole you are. Did you retire already? If not, now would be the perfect time.

[SeattleGirl]

59. Good grief, Brit. STFU!

Your brand of "christianity" isn't a one-size fits all!

Gah, but I'm tired of people trying to foist their particular brand of beliefs on others.

[Berry Cool]

66. I guess it's not Fox News anymore,

it's The 700 Club.

[SeattleGirl]

68. The women are going to have to start wearing bigger hair then.

:rofl:

[GigiMommy]

60. Well, I feel insulted.

WHAT A DITWAD!!!

[SeattleGirl]

63. Hi Gigi!

Missed you upthread! :hi: :bounce: :bounce: :bounce: :bounce: :bounce:

[GigiMommy]

67. SG!!!

:hug: Happy New Year!:bounce: :bounce: :bounce: :bounce: :bounce:

[SeattleGirl]

70. And Happy New Year to you and Miss Cassie!

I hope you had the best possible Christmas! :hug:

[Patsy Stone]

62. Seeing Dan Savage is always a delight.

:hi:, Dan!

[SeattleGirl]

64. I love it that he lives here in Seattle!

He writes for a paper called The Stranger, which we can pick up free around here.

[Berry Cool]

69. Well, I'm sorry, but I'm not about to feel responsible for going around denouncing dips like Hume

any more than I expect Muslims to denounce every terrorist in order to prove to me they mean no harm. I say, everyone needs to stop being a jerk about religion.

Oh, and Brit, you're no authority on toupees either.

[RevCheesehead]

71. I think I'm going to call him the Faux Basset Hound.

No offense to Basset Hounds, of course.
