KOEB 9/27/05

[Berry Cool]

"Hi, KO here. So you liked last night's show a little, eh? Watch tonight and see if I can keep up my snarking streak.

"After all, my stats are going up (take a look at last month's ratings, ahem ahem) and my record in this ballpark is very good! Even the current issue of Rolling Stone calls my Katrina rant an 'instant classic'!

"So watch tonight...and make it worthwhile for me to miss all this baseball! PLEASE!"

[Patsy Stone]

1. Snarky even before the starting gun goes off!

Dissed the NO flyover again in the opening.

Hi, all! :loveya:

[SharonRB]

2. Hi, Pats

:hi:

[Patsy Stone]

3. Hey, Sharon.

Nice to see Brownie again, ain't it? Oy.

[SharonRB]

4. I loved KO's comment about what Brown can do for you

[Patsy Stone]

5. I liked the "Blame Game" dig.

Also, this bit on Pickles' apperance and how it was setup as nothing more than a photo op, like *'s flyover. LOL.

[WolverineDG]

18. Extreme Makegood

:rofl:

why can't they put her on fear factor & make her eat worms or something?

dg

[SharonRB]

19. LOL

Good one, DG.

[WolverineDG]

22. i'm with you, sharon

she is NOT one of the most popular people in the us. like eleanor rigby, i think she keeps her face in jar by the door. it looks painted on & never changes.

dg

[Patsy Stone]

21. LOL!

Survivor: New Orleans. :)

[WolverineDG]

23. hiya pats!

:hi: how are ya?

dg

[Patsy Stone]

26. Good, good.

Who didn't think that KO was gonna have the Anna Nicole story on? Not me. :hi:

[crispini]

24. That's the best snark so far!

Hi ladies! :hi: Ah, doesn't he look splendid tonight. :loveya: This is my new fave outfit. The morning suit.

[Patsy Stone]

35. Hi, crispini!

It's a good one. He does look scrummy tonight.

:loveya:

[crispini]

37. Hi Patsela!

:hi:

[Berry Cool]

60. And I think the tie is new.

The stripes look narrower than on any of the old blue ties.

[crispini]

64. No, I think he's worn this before.

This is the outfit that reminds me of a morning suit. :loveya:

[Berry Cool]

69. Well, whatever you say.

Looked lovely on him regardless.

[Berry Cool]

59. Keith slugged out one snark after another

Right now he is reminding me of a Devil Ray. :-(

[Berry Cool]

58. Hi from Berry After the Show.

:hi: I did much better watching Keith. The Indians are sucking big time tonight. They are going to blow their chance at the postseason yet. Just you watch.

[seito]

6. OMG

They didn't... Extreme Makeover

Yea, that will help those ratings :eyes:

[Patsy Stone]

7. The White House called them.

Oy. Please, give us a PR stunt... Pleeeeezzzzeeeee??? :crazy:

[SharonRB]

8. It figures.

I read this in the newsletter this afternoon. What a PR stunt!

[seito]

11. Newsflash: Laura Bush is one of the most popular people

in the United States. Do ya really think so?..Hargoof was doing alright until that point.

[Patsy Stone]

13. I know

He could have said "in the administration" and I'd have gone with that. But the United States? C'mon, I mean, she's no Oprah. :)

[SharonRB]

10. One of the most popular

:puke:

I'd hate to see someone who's unpopular.

[bleever]

9. In a thread about Brownie earlier, Botany made the point that

if Brownie thinks this gang of thugs wouldn't throw him under the wagon a second time, he's wrong.


:)

[Patsy Stone]

12. I think that's his role.

Stooge. Patsy, if you will. They paid him well to wear a "Kick Me" sign.

He was hired to hand out checks last year in FL and make people wanna vote for *.

:hi:

[Catherine Vincent]

14. Will he show the bovine humping again?

:kick:

[Patsy Stone]

15. Monica, on location, all the way downstairs.

I love this building the houses in Rockefeller Plaza thing. Go Habitat. Go Warner Music.

[SharonRB]

16. Will posted some great video from the civil disobedience

yesterday.

Here's the linky:

http://www.democraticunderground.com/discuss/duboard.php?az=show_mesg&forum=104&topic_id=4904915&mesg_id=4904915

Meganmonkey is right near the beginning saying "Hey, Mom, I'm almost in jail." Or something like that.

[spooky3]

17. Clinton's FEMA guy did a nice job of noting where the buck stops.

[bleever]

49. He was a great guest. Emblematic of the new conversation:

instead of whether or not this administration is right, but of just how wrong they've got it.

[SharonRB]

20. Speaking of big things running around...

LOL :rofl:

[Berry Cool]

61. Keith is so naughty sometimes.

Big things running around!

[Patsy Stone]

25. What happened to the other lawyer?

Howard K. Stern? Did Anna go for better representation? :)

[SharonRB]

27. What is the criteria for a case to go before the SCOTUS?

I just don't think this case has the import one would think would be necessary.

[crispini]

29. It is a little weird.

Why would they care? It's all very strange.

Hi Sharon! :hi:

[SharonRB]

30. Hi, Crispi

:hi:

[Botany]

32. It has to be a ? of constitutional law

or if you want to stop the counting of votes in a Presidential election

Puppets!

[WolverineDG]

38. there has to be some legal issue that needs working out

i think her lawyer is right, there is a question of law that needs to be sorted out. i don't do federal court, so what i know about the supremes isn't that much. her step-son's atty may be correct that there are no questions of fact to be worked out (which the supremes never hear anyway), but they wouldn't pick up this case if there wasn't some legal issue that needed hammering out. i do, however, think he's whining about his client not getting to put on all of his evidence....whine whine, then why didn't he appeal THAT?

glad to know my bar card comes in handy sometimes. :)

dg

[Botany]

28. Smith Snark

What is the Broad Outline .... KO

Ms Smith goes to Washington ...... Anna's Mouthpiece

:rofl:

BTW :hi:

[SharonRB]

33. That PT was pretty lame

MJ Puppet Theatre was much, much better.

[WolverineDG]

56. i just can't believe

they didn't include of shot of anna nicole smith wearing her "spoiled" t shirt in the witness box. wonder if she's gonna dig that out for her date w/the supremes? :evilgrin:


dg

[Berry Cool]

62. Still, we have Puppet Theatre back!

And that's the important thing!

[Patsy Stone]

31. Anna Nicole Supreme Court Puppet Theater!

The voices are back.

:loveya:

[crispini]

34. He had Roberts on there!

:rofl:

[bleever]

36. What made the whole thing work for me was Anna Nicole saying, at the end,

"Woo.hoo...hoo..." as she fell over.

:)

[Patsy Stone]

42. It all comes full circle.

LOL. That clip of her on the awards show is priceless.

[SharonRB]

47. Hey, Pats

KO is speaking Yiddish now.

[Berry Cool]

70. Did anyone ever notice that when KO does Puppet Theatre with a woman

with big breasts...he always has her breasts on a separate stick moving independently of her body?

Keith, do you have issues sweetie???

[Muffstser]

39. YOU'RE KIDDING!!! EXCELLENT!

Just got home. I can hardly wait to rewind the tape!

[Botany]

40. Crystal Meth ......

the path to God. Please.

Memo to all women who might become a hostage keep some
Crank around the house .... you just do not know when you will
need it.

[crispini]

44. I sure as hell wouldn't give any hostile person some CRANK.

Jeez. Pot, maybe. Hey, duuude, smoke this and let's order some pizza! :rofl:

[crispini]

41. Recovering addict = still using?

WTF? By what defininition!? :eyes:

[WolverineDG]

57. $5 someone is calling Child Protective Services

I know I would.

dg

[bleever]

43. Yeah, give the guy assaulting you some crank.

Better to crush up a Tylenol PM and hope he falls asleep, I'd think.


:shrug:

[crispini]

45. LOL! Here, hoover up this SEDATIVE.

:rofl:

[bleever]

53. And the guy had first asked for pot.

"Yeah, and here, let me put on some Ravi Shankar for you while you sit back in the papasan chair."

:7

[Berry Cool]

72. I would be in bad shape if this guy had shown up at my place.

"Gosh, I have no drugs...would you like some Diet Coke??"

"Oh, and here I have a copy of a book I have found to be very inspirational...'The Big Show' by Dan Patrick and Keith Olbermann...let me read to you from the chapter in which Keith discusses his 100 Greatest Baseball Players of All Time..."

Hey, it just might work. After a few pages' worth of all those statistics, the guy might fall asleep, and I'd be able to call 911.

[crispini]

46. A Python reference!

:loveya:

[Patsy Stone]

48. Mo Rocca comin' up.

This should be good. "What's the fourth horseman of the Washington apocalypse." :loveya:

And, a Holy Hand Grenade joke. :loveya:

And, nudge...

KO speaking Yiddish. I could die now.

[SharonRB]

50. Vulcan mind meld, Pats

Owe me a Coke!

[crispini]

54. Yay, Mo Rocca!

He's always funny.

[Patsy Stone]

68. And tonight was no exception.

That list of strippers in Washington they ran through wsa hysterical.

:loveya:

[Botany]

51. the purpose driven life ????

Crispi = The cuff driven life

:beer:

[Berry Cool]

74. On Botany's assessment:

"BTW I think the cute babe who KO was just interviewing had
the hots for him blushing & hair flip ..... ESTROGEN worse than
Crystal Meth ....."

Yeah, but a Jewish mama who don't want you marryin' out of your religion is worse than estrogen. Something tells me she probaly has one! :-)

[RevCheesehead]

86. Bot - you made an error...

Patsy is most definately "the mattress-driven life." :rofl:

BTW - I heard you on Miss Stephanie's show today!! I was at my parent's and turned on the radio. Who do I hear? "Hi, buddy." :loveya:

How I wish she'd call you Cuddles. :)

[gkhouston]

90. well, I'm back

got back 1am yesterday morning, to discover the A/C at the house wasn't working. That's been fixed, but the car's still in the garage. Normal life gradually re-asserting itself. :crazy:

[crispini]

91. yay! Gina made it home!

w00t!

[bleever]

92. Good to hear you're okay, Gina.

I'll pray for your A/C.

:)

[gkhouston]

93. the A/C is back; it's the car that's still

:puke: Last I heard, the guys at the local garage are trying to reproduce the problems we had in Seguin and on the road. Maybe an exorcism is in order. ;-)

[Muffstser]

52. KO and Mo!

I love it! The pole remark is priceless.

[Berry Cool]

65. Loved the pole remark.

When Mo comes back, you always know you'll hear snarkin' and see Keith smilin' (and the caterpillar eyebrows a-cockin').

:loveya: Mo for what you do to Keith.

[Berry Cool]

67. Bot, what kind of life do I lead?

The no-vacations-for-KO-driven life?

The Indians-in-the-crapper life?

Please tell!

[Botany]

73. E.Z.

The Sleeping with the Bay Air Cubs after Frolicing too much driven life

:boring:

[Berry Cool]

[crispini]

78. WTF

[Botany]

85. Sorry you are not women enough to know about Pronk

however it might stand for

Pleasant
Relaxing
Orgasmic
natural
kissing

or then again it might not .... ask Berry

:rofl:

[Berry Cool]

87. Like I should know?????

From personal experience, I mean?

Anyway, Pronk is the nickname of a certain DH for a certain baseball team. His real name is Travis Hafner. He got the nickname "Pronk" as a combination of "project" and "donkey." This is supposedly because at one point another Indian saw him at a practice and said he looked like a nice "project." "Project" became his nickname. Then, certain others started calling him "Donkey," and eventually the two nicknames combined.

The origins of "Donkey" are somewhat murky. At one time he said it might be because of how he ran bases, but when he was FIRST asked where the nickname came from, he said "Don't ask." Leading me to believe that the "running-the-bases" explanation may have been a case of revisionist history. I.e., the origins of "Donkey" lie somewhere that they'd rather not talk about. The locker room, perhaps?

I'm just speculatin'. I don't know nothin'. :-)

[ewagner]

77. Okay...who is that?

take a look at this picture....the woman holding the last sign on the left hand side......the sign that says:

Keep your Knees Loose

That's got to be one of the KOEB!

Here's the pic:

[crispini]

79. Try again, bad image linky.

Where's the image? You may have to save it and toss it up in photobucket.

[ewagner]

80. did it! n/t

[bleever]

81. LOFL! Okay, fess up: who is that in that shot? You know who you are.

[Berry Cool]

88. Ah. a message we can all take home with us!

Sharon...does that say "I (heart) Olbermann"?

[WolverineDG]

89. close, but nope

i (heart) michigan.

dg

[Berry Cool]

94. That's a relief.

Because if it said "I (heart) Olberman" it would have been misspelled. :rofl:
