Maineiac & I are going out tonight to toast to Gonzo's resignation.
Who's with us? (I think it's cheap beverage night so I'm going to toast the hell out of this happy event!) :toast:

6. I think your enthusiasm
Edited on Mon Aug-27-07 02:36 PM by jasonc
is misplaced, this is not a good thing.

It is merely a misdirection to get the heat off the bush admin to allow them to continue as normal.


When the Marines roll into DC and arrest EVERYONE, then you can celebrate.

16. Any excuse to celebrate.
And I don't know if I agree. At this point will anybody (besides the diehard 29%) be fooled by a smokescreen?

Eternal optimist here. Bound to die young(ish.)

10. I already started drinking early this morning.
I woke up to the dogs barking and found that one of our ducks had been partially eaten by a raccoon. It was still alive but beyond repair. So I had to kill it.



The one on the right is not with us anymore. Not the best way to start off the day.

13. No, a truly sucky way to start the day.
My STBE once threw a brick at our rooster. He didn't kill it but wounded it, and the hens did the rest. I can't forget it.

Hi, Omphalo. I'm already home from my little celebration & wishing I weren't. :hi: :hug:

25. This is so sad..
The one duck that is still alive has just been standing in the same place for hours. They used to go everywhere together. Always within a foot of each other. She is just lost without him.

Fuck..

30. Comfort thyself.
I'm sure she's feeling a bit off, but I don't think ducks feel grief like human beings do. God, I hope not.

However I intend to pour one more before I hit the hay, and that one will be for you. We need a break, don't we? :hug: :loveya: :toast:

32. I think it has an iteresting flavor on its own, as long as it's well
cooked. But I like all food except for bananas and anything with a really fishy flavor. Though I love caviar. Eh, whatever - I won't force feed you plain tofu, don't you worry!

28. WASSUP, DADA?
Cute!

I was home before seven. It's unseemly to drink heavily on a Monday evening, even for a good cause. :7
