[Patsy Stone]

2. Raise the roof!

:hi:, everyone!

[SharonRB]

14. Hi, Pats

:hi:

[SeattleGirl]

4. Hi, and Happy Day After Healthcare Passage Day!

Yeah, yeah, the bill could be better, but damn, we have to start somewhere!

And yay, Keith! You're back!!

:hi:

[Patsy Stone]

7. And here's to the Republicans imploding!

[SeattleGirl]

11. Hi Patsy! Salute!

:toast:

[WolverineDG]

One really funny FB status: wife crying because her husband burned their flag

& said they'd have to leave the US. I was so helpful, I told them where they COULDN'T go, since they were so against government-provided health care. Basically, they've limited themselves to Africa & the Middle East...no English-speaking countries & Europe & Canada were also out. oops

:rofl:

[SeattleGirl]

27. Hi Wolvie! Hehehe! Great response!

[SharonRB]

16. Hi, SG

We'll have to go out and celebrate belatedly!

[SeattleGirl]

18. Oh yes!

:hi:

[Patsy Stone]

5. Oh, STFU you old coot.

The world did not end yesterday, John.

[Botany]

10. Did I ever tell you that you are my Fave?

Oh, STFU you old coot ..... who has been on government run health care
from the day he was f***ing born.

[Botany]

6. It is a Waterloo

Do these republicans know they lost the elections and don't have the
votes to do crap?

[SeattleGirl]

8. Hi Bot! I actually played Waterloo as soon as the bill passed

last night, and giggled while I listened!

:hi:

[Patsy Stone]

15. Hal played it this morning on Steph's show.

I sang it loud and proud.

[SeattleGirl]

21. Damn, I missed that part of the show!

[Patsy Stone]

26. It would have been about

6:30 a.m. your time. It was after one of the first breaks.

[SeattleGirl]

29. I'm still sleeping at 6:30 am.

:rofl:

[PSzymeczek]

120. I know what you mean!

I think I was up at 7:30 or so today.

[Berry Cool]

61. Me too!

But it's been running through my head all day!

"The history book on the shelf/Is always repeating itself"! :rofl:

My favorite memory related to that song is the lip-sync contest from the movie Muriel's Wedding. A complete riot. One of the funniest scenes ever in a motion picture. I remember sitting in a theater full of people in Rochester ROFL over it.

[Botany]

24. Did I ever tell you that you are my Fave?

I always hated ABBA but I kinda like that song now.

BTW DeMint's facebook is a scream.

[SharonRB]

31. That's hysterical!

:rofl:

[SeattleGirl]

32. LOL!

Love some of the comments! :rofl:

[Patsy Stone]

41. What did ABBA ever do to you?

(Okay, aside from those outfits.) Whatever it was, it was easily 25 years ago. Get over it already. :)

ABBA Rules!!!

[Botany]

56. The red headed one .... a long weekend in Toronto .....

.... it was amazing ...... she said she would meet me for dinner later that night.

She never showed up ...... I was just her love toy :cry:

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

Rep. Lewis has a metal plate in his head from being a Freedom Rider years ago



and these shits call him a n*****? The man who attacked him called Rep. Lewis and went to his office
and apologized to him. Lewis took the man to lunch and now they are friends. Lewis is pure class and
America is better because he lived here.

[Patsy Stone]

98. If nothing else

it exposes them for the racists they are.

p.s. I'm sure she still thinks about you. Fernando and Botany have the same number of syllables. Coincidence? I think not.

[Patsy Stone]

12. Couldn't escape if I wanted to.

No. No they don't. :hi:

[WolverineDG]

30. too bad we can't send these bastards to Elba

:grr:

[GigiMommy]

9. Hi Everybody!!!

It's March MADNESS again!!! :hi: :bounce: :bounce: :bounce: :bounce: :bounce:

[SeattleGirl]

17. Hi Gigi and Miss Cassie!

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

[GigiMommy]

25. Hi SG!!!

Hope you're doing well? Love seeing the Republicans reeling.:hi:

[SeattleGirl]

35. Me too!

It's a happy day indeed!

:hi:

[SharonRB]

20. Hi, Gigi

and Miss Cassie.

:hi:

[GigiMommy]

36. Hi Sharon!!!

What a night last night.:hi:

[SeattleGirl]

37. I'm actually exhausted today after watching coverage all

day and all evening yesterday. But it was worth it.

[SharonRB]

39. I stayed up until Pelosi finished speaking after POTUS spoke

I think it was around 1. And then I couldn't sleep all night. Luckily I was working from home today, so I could take it a bit easy.

[Patsy Stone]

53. Me too

I watched the Dems after Obama, but I didn't have trouble sleeping.

[SharonRB]

58. I don't think it was the excitement keeping me up

I think maybe the coffee I drank all day yesterday that I thought was decaf wasn't. If that's not it, I don't know what it was.

[Berry Cool]

67. I watched it all

then slept in till 10:30. Am I bad?

[Berry Cool]

64. Yeah, and you can tell Keith is delighted.

Should've known he'd have a deeper story to tell about this sports tale.

[RavensChick]

19. He came back at the right time!!

Evening, everyone!!!!

:hi:

[SeattleGirl]

22. Hi RC!

Yes, he did!

I was thinking about Keith's dad and my mom when the bill passed. They both had insurance and the financial means to cover their medical treatment, but from what Keith said, and from the conversations I had with my mom, I know they would be pleased that those who don't have insurance now have a chance to get it.

[RavensChick]

38. Hi, SG!

I thought the same thing with a lot of my friends and family, esp. my brother because it's hard for anyone you love to go through so much pain, with or without coverage, so at least I'm glad those who don't have insurance can finally be covered and get the care they need.

Besides, the repukes have been trippin' all day long so apparently this is only the beginning of the temper tantrums. I say, let them lose what's left of their minds!!!



:hi:

[SeattleGirl]

42. It's kind of fun watching them lose it, isn't it?

On the other hand, though, it's kind of scary, the way they are acting. Their followers too. I think they are dangerous.

[RavensChick]

45. The minions are just as bad, trust me!

All the protests over the weekend made me real glad I stayed away from the National Mall!

[GigiMommy]

46. Hi RC!!!

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

[RavensChick]

50. Hi, Gigi!

How are you and Cassie? Hope all is well.

:hi: :hi:

[GigiMommy]

66. Everyday's a little better than the last.

I did a bracket in Hubby's honor for a group that he used to do it for. I NEVER do those. I'm now in 5th place. I'm stunned.:hi:

[Patsy Stone]

68. He's proud of you.

:hi:

[GigiMommy]

97. Hi Patsy!!!

...and thank you! :hi: :bounce: :bounce: :bounce: :bounce: :bounce:

[RavensChick]

76. Aw! That's so beautiful!

I'm sure he's smiling down from heaven on you for that. You may move up before the semi-finals!

[GigiMommy]

99. I'd be SHOCKED if that happens.

:hug: Thanks.

[RavensChick]

104. You're welcome!

:hug: :hug: :hug: :hug: :hug:

[Berry Cool]

83. That's great!

:hi: And my belated hi to you and Cassie.

My brackets have taken a beating, but I still picked 9 of the Sweet 16.

[GigiMommy]

110. Belated Hi to you Berry!!!

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

[WolverineDG]

118. In the DU one, I'm actually ahead of some of the "experts"

:wow: Still in the top 10, but Kansas & Nova biting it early really wrecked my brackets. :(

dg

[Berry Cool]

122. Same here.

I should have entered the DU one. I just entered the ESPN one.

[Berry Cool]

78. Good to see you again, RC!!

:hi: It's been a while.

[RavensChick]

85. It sure has, believe it!

I've been reading the threads but I've been so busy it'll take me way too long to describe it. I'm in my own "March Madness", so seeing what's been going on here has been interesting.

[Patsy Stone]

92. I hear ya.

Things over here have been quite manic as well this past month. But it's always nice to see you whenever you get the chance to pop in! Try to take it easy. :hi:

[RavensChick]

102. I am for the most part.

My condo has been getting a makeover so I had to deal with sawing, hammering, painting, tiles being put down, and sleeping on my futon for the last month or so until this past weekend when I finally got a new bed). On top of that, going to work and dealing with 2 online classes so my plate's been full. Otherwise, I'm doing pretty good.

[SharonRB]

23. So now Larry thinks it's going to pass

He's singing a different tune than he's been singing the last couple of weeks.

[Patsy Stone]

34. Better late than never, I guess.

He's been a real pessimist about this. Someone out there said they thought it was a manifestation of his jealousy that it was done, but not by the Clintons.

[SharonRB]

40. Yeah, I saw that

but I didn't agree with it.

[Patsy Stone]

28. LOL! There's a whole Cornell segment coming up.

Why am I not surprised?

[SharonRB]

33. I certainly expected it.

[Berry Cool]

87. I always thought "Cornell basketball" was an oxymoron.

Goes to show what I know.

[RavensChick]

43. Hi, Pats!

I'm not either. Besides, my bracket was already gone when Maryland lost yesterday so all I can do is see who'll make it to the Elite 8 and then I'll root for whoever's left (hopefully Cornell)! A friend of mine was so pissed when Georgetown lost he threw his bracket out the window, so he may watch whoever's left too.

:hi:

[WolverineDG]

51. you can do a 2nd chance bracket on Yahoo

:)

:hi: RC!!

dg

[RavensChick]

54. Nah, I'm gonna pass.

I'm glad I didn't put no money down or I would be broke as anything!

:hi: again, hon!!

[rocktivity]

81. Cornell? ANOTHER reference to Keith's alma mater?

Let's see if HE mentions them!

On edit: 8:43 PM EST: Done!!!

:rofl:
rocktivity

[RavensChick]

86. He will, and he IS!!!

:hi:

[Berry Cool]

90. Tell your friend that Bot and I are so sorry, tee hee

but heck, we got the boot too.

Now all Bot and I have left for state loyalty is Ohio State.

But 'Cuse is going all the way. LOL.

[RavensChick]

94. I will. Thanks, LOL!

If Ohio State wins I'll be more than glad to lend my support!

[PSzymeczek]

121. UD beat UC by 15.

All's right with the world.

[Berry Cool]

44. w00t! is right!!!!!

:hi: Hi all! I was afraid I lost my Internets there for a bit, but all seems to be OK now.

Yes We Did!! :bounce: :bounce:

[RavensChick]

48. Berry!!!!!!

Glad to see ya, hon!!

Yes, we sure did!!! Now things can get back to some level of normalcy, but we got a long way to go before all is right with the world again!

:hi:

[SeattleGirl]

49. Hi Berry!

:hi:

[SeattleGirl]

55. I formally denounce and condemn the people who hurled

those slurs and even spat on someone. I feel a sense of shame that I share a skin color with them...that's ALL I share, though. :grr:

[Patsy Stone]

57. Horrible people

Just gross.

[SharonRB]

59. Disgusting.

[SeattleGirl]

60. When I heard what they said, and what they did, I was nearly

beside myself with rage. Un-frickin' real!

And these people think they are PATRIOTS?????

[Patsy Stone]

63. Don't forget the "Distinguished Gentleman" from Texas

Who shouted out "It's a Baby Killer!" during Stupak's speech. Another gem.

[SeattleGirl]

65. I know. I have to say, as pissed as I was at Stupak, he did

one hell of an ass kicking on the republicans last night!

[SharonRB]

69. And he did the right thing

Without him, the whole thing would have failed.

[SeattleGirl]

71. Yep, I know.

I still get pissed when men think they have the right to tell women what we can and cannot do with our bodies, but I know we needed him to get the bill passed.

[RavensChick]

72. They're demented, to put it mildly.

Don't worry about them, hon. What goes around comes around.

:)

[Botany]

73. I was asked to go to a local school board meeting tonight ...

.... mouth breathers want to include "global warming is a hoax"
into high school science classes. I skipped it because I am not
in a good mood and might have done something stupid.

Dumb asses get their science from Glen Beck. :grr:

[RavensChick]

79. Now THAT'S some scary shit!

Sad. Very, very sad indeed.

:hi:

[Botany]

88. We will have some good speakers and some cops there tonight

"They" want dominate the meeting .... not going to happen.



BTW ...... Did I ever tell you that you are my fave?

[SeattleGirl]

80. And Beck gets his science from his arse.

The willful ignorance in this country just pisses me off!

[Botany]

89. Beck gets his "science" from Exxon talking points.

n/t

[WolverineDG]

119. Notice that the shots of the Tea Baggers are all seas of white

and yet we're supposed to believe they're not racists?

Yeah, I'm not buying that either.

dg

[SharonRB]

62. So excited -- US of Tara and Nurse Jackie start tonight!

[rocktivity]

74. Kos' victory lap!

However, Kos, the words "Republican" and "accountability" don't believe in the same solar system, never mind the same sentence!

:eyes:

[SeattleGirl]

82. Hi rocktivity!

77. Other Waterloos:

Waterloo, TX:



Waterloo Station:



Waterloo Bridge:



And, best of all, a print of "A Waterloo":




:hi:

[Berry Cool]

93. Kitchener-Waterloo, Ontario, Canada

:hi: Hi bleev!

[SeattleGirl]

105. Nunes, BLECH!

Watching him being interviewed on CSPAN yesterday, I had to restrain myself from throwing shoes at the TV machine! :grr: :grr: :grr:

[Patsy Stone]

108. I saw this Nunes idiot yesterday.

He accused the administration of using Totalitarian tactics to usher in Socialism. Uh... what?

[SeattleGirl]

109. And he was sitting there looking oh-so-smug while he said it.

Grrrrrrr!

[Patsy Stone]

111. So instead of throwing things

it seemed to me like a good time to make some lunch.

[Berry Cool]

115. Well, Keith delivered another winner.

The Republicans are going to die out of existence if all they have left in the party is extremist nutjobs. And I won't dance on the grave of the Republican Party per se, but I will dance on the grave of a party full of nothing but extremist nutjobs.

[RevCheesehead]

112. Oh crap on a cracker.

I came home and found my computer disabled. Either I got a virus or Oreo hit the wrong key. It took me nearly an hour to get back to where I can use it. :grr:

Nice to have Keith back. :hi:

[GigiMommy]

113. Hi Rev!!!

Missed ya. Glad you and Keith are back.:hi: :bounce: :bounce: :bounce: :bounce: :bounce:

[Berry Cool]

116. You don't suppose the Repigs are conspiring against us?

I was without Internets for a while when Keith first came on.

:hi: Glad to see ya, Rev!

[RavensChick]

114. The Special Comment was on point!!!!

Every word was so true I don't have the words to describe my emotion!!!! Keith, bless you now and forever!!!!!

117. Preach it, Brother Keith!

:applause: Go to your work, RC, with joy!!

This is a day of independence
For all KOEB'ers and their descendants!! :patriot:
