[crispini]

I finally got to make it here for Countdown one night! And I'm waiting for three threads, LOL.

Edited to add:

[Patsy Stone]

1. Well, girl

It looks like you started one!

:hi:

[crispini]

2. Yaaaaaaaaaaay!

Hi Patsy!

Let me go edit the thread title, LOL! :D

[SeattleGirl]

17. Hi Patsy!

:hi:

[Patsy Stone]

25. Hi, SG

I've been watching the show and forgetting to type. :)

:hi:

[SeattleGirl]

27. I got home almost 10 minutes after the show started.

Had to go run some errands. But I's here now!

[ralps]

3. Hi crispini, Hi Everyone! I'm here!

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

[crispini]

5. Hi ralps!

Good to see you! :hug:

I am enjoying myself being here tonight after a tough (and losing) primary runoff battle here yesterday. :( The best person lost. Maybe I'll go open a beer and order a pizza, hahah.

[SeattleGirl]

18. Hi ralps!

:hi:

[ralps]

23. Hi SeattleGirl!!

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

[Patsy Stone]

4. Howard Fineman's been into the "Just For Men" bottle.

When did he become a redhead? :rofl:

:hi:, everyone!

[crispini]

6. OMG. I just noticed that.

How funny! It almost matches his tie!

[Patsy Stone]

8. It's bordering on the "vain old guy" color.

Matches his tie... :spray:

[bleever]

15. When lit from behind, it practically glows!

:hi:

[SeattleGirl]

20. Hi bleev!

:hi:

[Berry Cool]

32. Howard, the Red-Haired Fineman

Dyed his hair 'cause it still grows,
And if you ever saw it
You would even say it glows...

[Patsy Stone]

41. Pink hair

Red and purple rep tie, light blue shirt.

If you're not seeing these colors on your TV...

GE (we bring good things to life)

[crispini]

7. Hillary is "arguing with the refs, not focusing on the game," lol

Best characterization I've heard of that so far!

[Patsy Stone]

9. Yay, Elizabeth!

Lovely to see you. :loveya:

[Berry Cool]

13. Hi all!

:hi: Better late that never!

Love the old suspender-flashing photo, crispi! :loveya:

I didn't start a thread because I thought two other people would!

[crispini]

14. I was waiting, and waiting, and waiting....

and finally I was like, ok, no mas! :D Let's start the party!

[SeattleGirl]

21. Hi Berry!

:hi:

[bleever]

10. Warning: if David Shuster shows up,

do not adjust your TV sets!

He was on Hardball dressed like a test pattern.

:hi:

[Berry Cool]

16. Uh-oh.

Hope he won't appear next to any Indian chiefs.

[crispini]

LOL!

Hi Bleev! :hi:

[Patsy Stone]

24. Thankfully, then, he wasn't in a box

next to Howard Fineman appearing in glorious TECHNICOLOR.

:hi:

[Berry Cool]

33. Here, Howard, have a few feathers

You can be the NBC peacock.

[Patsy Stone]

35. LOL!

:spray:

[bleever]

36. That

was funny.

[crispini]

11. Good for Elizabeth, ragging on McCain.

Exactly the right tack to take. :D

[SeattleGirl]

12. Hi crispini!! Howdy all! Yay Elizabeth!

I'm so glad that she seems to be doing well! :loveya:

[Berry Cool]

19. I love how Keith says "How are you?"

and she says "Fine, Keith--how are YOU?"

She's gotta be so tired now of people asking her "How AAAARRRREEEE you??????" in that aching concerned voice.

[Patsy Stone]

26. He loves her.

It's great to see her on TV again. She's so damned smart.

[bleever]

22. Keef quotes a "Rush" song!

:rofl:

[Patsy Stone]

28. But...

He called it "old". :(

I'm old.

[bleever]

30. Here's a winter safety video featuring Geddy Lee.

Maybe it will cheer you up, young lady.

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=gwpGXfHmY-A

:hi:

[Berry Cool]

49. Take off...to the Great White North

Take off...it's a beauty way to go.

TAKE...OFF...YOU...HOSER.

[bleever]

51. God bless the internets.

Too funny!

[Patsy Stone]

71. And, don't be afraid

to give'er!

"If you're like me, winter means one thing: tobogganing."

:rofl:

[bleever]

83. I was an avid tobogganer.

I tobogganed with fervor.

[Berry Cool]

37. I missed that!

Which one was it?

[Patsy Stone]

45. Freewill

"If you choose not to decide, you still have made a choice."

[Berry Cool]

52. Ah, I didn't recognize that one.

I guess I'm too much of a young whippersnapper.

LOL...naah, more like I remember "And the words of the profits are written on the studio walls...and the concert halls."

[ralps]

29. Woohoo!! I guess the media? finally discovered who crashed HoJoe LIEberman's

website! His people did! :hi: :loveya: :hug: :pals: :woohoo:

[crispini]

31. I love that so much.

It's awesome. :D

[Berry Cool]

40. OK, gotta ask this:

Who else looks at the Norwegian Cruise Lines ad with the adult guy sitting at the table with the little boy and thinks "How'd Tucker Carlson get on this commercial?"

[crispini]

44. Ahahahah!

:thumbsup:

[Patsy Stone]

34. Another night, another pair of glasses for Richard.

Don'tcha love a man with a full optical wardrobe?

[SeattleGirl]

38. I wonder if LensCrafters had a special?

:rofl:

[Patsy Stone]

43. :)

Can you imagine what his prescription sunglasses collection must look like?

[crispini]

39. Hee!

Speaking of cute men on Countdown, David Sirota is coming to Dallas in a couple of months and my DFA group will be helping host his book signing and maybe another event.

Droooooooooool.

[SeattleGirl]

42. YUM!

He is definitely drool-worthy!

[crispini]

46. I really like this segment "Bushed"

Yeah, some of these things I've heard about before, but lots of them I have not. Good job! :D

[Patsy Stone]

48. It's fun to say

and he enjoys saying it so much. :)

[Patsy Stone]

47. Were there Best Person graphics?

I think not, but I missed the beginning.

[Berry Cool]

54. No, he did "Bushed" instead

but the sponsor promo said "Best Persons is sponsored by..."

Oops.

Oh, and Keith's true story about meeting Paulina Porizkova is nothing like what he said tonight. The way he told it on Dan Patrick's show, the other guy on the assignment with him was trying desperately to impress her, but she ONLY wanted to talk to Keith.

[Patsy Stone]

59. He can watch her every week

on America's Next Top Model. She's still gorgeous. Mrs. Ric Ocasek.

[bleever]

50. Hey, did they just show us the fountain?

Maybe it was the flashing light set-up that they got rid of.

[Berry Cool]

67. They're dismantling the fountain.

You can still see the partial skeleton of it if you look closely, but it's not lit up.

The white arcing lights belong to some permanent fixture of the plaza.

[Patsy Stone]

53. John "100 Years" McCain

I like that he's repeating that over and over. Let's all focus on McCain.

[Berry Cool]

"100 years of war in Iraq, 100 years of war..."

Come on, sing it everyone.

Oh dear, after what I did last night I'll never be able to see McCain as anything but the teenage Bamm-Bamm.

[crispini]

57. Totally agree.

Soon, soon, soon we will get to be all Democrats again. Mostly. :D

[Patsy Stone]

60. There was a mini TS fest in GDP, apparently.

The more, the merrier.

[crispini]

64. That's getting to be a weekly event.

Mostly I put the obnoxious ones on ignore pretty quickly, so I tend not to notice. :D

[Patsy Stone]

74. And when you go back and click on the names

in the list and see the TS, it's so satisfying knowing you can trust your judgment. :)

[crispini]

82. Indeed!

:D

[SeattleGirl]

55. "John McCentury"

:rofl:

[Patsy Stone]

63. Is that what Eugene called him?

I couldn't quite catch it.

[SeattleGirl]

65. Yep, that's what he said!

I love Eugene!

:rofl:

[Patsy Stone]

75. He rocks so hard.

:loveya:

[Botany]

56. Did I ever tell you that you are my Fav?

Ready for your "Dream Date" :rofl:

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

Drive by Blog ..... I loves me some Elizabeth Edwards .... I saw her earlier :bounce:

Let's just stop the election and make her President.

[crispini]

58. Ah, such a class act.

:loveya::hug:

[Botany]

62. Taco Bell & the Red Roof Inn in 1 night

Dr. Smooth is in. :loveya:

BTW Taco Bell is on me ... the room 50 50 kay?

[Berry Cool]

69. Keith would be all for that.

Elizabeth Edwards, first woman president...I like the sound of that!

[Botany]

72. You already met the person who might be our first Estro Heavy President

Jennifer Brunner.

[crispini]

Who dat?

?

[Botany]

78. Ohio's Jennifer Brunner

Ohio's Jennifer Brunner .... she took over as our Sec. of State
and is cleaning up Blackwell's mess. She is awesome ... she
is kinda my friend (well she doesn't run screaming from me
and have the highway patrol arrest me) .... she is now Berry's
BFF too :rofl:

http://www.thewe.cc/thewei/_/images11/us_rigged_elections/jennifer_brunner_answers.jpe

She has fired a bunch of dirty BOE people, given paper ballots,
and seized voting machines as part of a criminal investigation.

[crispini]

79. Yay!

Good deal!
:thumbsup:

[Botany]

87. Jenny is also catching big time shit from the powers that be ....

.... she tested the DRE machines and found them all bad ....
you should have heard the republicans scream. She is also
awesome on the stump too.

[crispini]

88. Good for her.

I don't know if you remember Richard Morrison that ran against the Bugman down in Houston -- he is running for county commissioner down here... good man, because county commish has lots of power over... guess what... the VOTING process. Ha! Keep your fingers crossed for him.

[Botany]

89. It is gonna be a f***ing landslide this fall

The breeder where I got my lab .... very republican
... I was @ their house the other day .... and Sally
knowing me and my background apologized for voting
for bush ... she kept saying HE IS AN IDIOT ... and said
that Obama would show the world that America has grown
up and she would neve vote any republican this fall
because she is so disgusted by them .... she has a signed
pix of Reagan on her desk too.

**********
I think gettting control @ the local & state level is the key ...
gotta stop people from screwing w/ our vote.

[crispini]

90. You are correct sir!

We just need to figure out how to get that out to people. :D

[Botany]

91. McCain is e.z.

He is a bush/cheney republican
He wants to stay in Iraq for 100 yrs
He finished 2nd to last in his class at the Naval Academy in 1958
(that makes him old & dumb ... not what America needs)
McCain doesn't know shi ite

rinse lather and repeat

local races are tougher

[bleever]

93. People like you guys

make me think my hope isn't misplaced.

[bleever]

61. "Bill" collector???

Oh, Keef.

:rofl::rofl::rofl::rofl::rofl::rofl::rofl::rofl:

[WolverineDG]

66. Free Tibet!

:hi: Sorry I'm late, but had something to do. I did watch some of the SF live streaming of the Torch "Run" through SF today. Kinda funny when they went a different way to avoid the protestors, but then you could see them hauling ass & catching up with the torch...who's bright idea was it to run the torch down streets that hadn't been barricaded? :crazy:

dg

[crispini]

70. Hey girlfriend!

Check
your
PM
(shortly)

[bleever]

68. Ari Fleischer confers with John Bolton:

[Berry Cool]

73. So true!!!!!

So, in that scenario, is Condi Rice Ladyfish??? :rofl:

[bleever]

77. Ladyfish

is too good-looking.

[Berry Cool]

80. Ooh, Keith finally gets in his digs at those who asked whether he was getting checks

from Obama's campaign.

"The real question may be, is ANYONE getting checks from the CLINTON campaign??" :rofl:

[SeattleGirl]

84. ROFL!!!!

I loved that line!

:rofl:

[bleever]

92. That there was a first class

response to that talking point.

Someone on his staff must have heard of the internets.

:thumbsup:

[SeattleGirl]

76. Uh oh. GD-Pee is gonna blow over the Clinton IOU story.

:rofl:

[crispini]

81. Oh, doesn't ANYBODY get the "accessory" joke?

OBAMA IS HAWT!!!!!

Arm Candy!

People have no sense of humor these days. Honestly.

[SeattleGirl]

85. Some folks were in the bathroom when they passed out the humor gene.

Those folks must be hell to live with.

[Berry Cool]

86. Yeah, Keith is hardly in a position to criticize anyone for having "arm candy."

He looked like a flustered man by the end of the show. Pretty funny.
