[Patsy Stone]

:loveya::loveya:

[Patsy Stone]

1. I hope one of these people

was targeted by the NSA. I want a case to come up -- FAST!

[SharonRB]

2. Hi, Pats

Is it just us chickens?

[bettyellen]

7. no body here at all. just 1000 monkeys typing for 100 years....

at least that's what's going on here. :)

[bleever]

11. I hear that those 1000 monkeys have girlfriends.

Please don't flame me.

:)

[bettyellen]

17. *rofl*

:P
too funny bleeve. my kitty is desperate for a boyfriend, i wonder if she's picky about the species, hmmmm.
:rofl:

[Berry Cool]

23. One of my cats IS half monkey

so she will be very disappointed to learn all the monkeys are taken. :cry:

[Patsy Stone]

12. It seems that Clinton and Carter (of course)

did not do anything close to this new crap. :crazy: Torture Boy.

[bleever]

3. Hey, do you hear a funny echo on this thread?

Do you think someone's eavesdropping on this thread?

:hi:

[SharonRB]

4. LOL

:rofl:

[Patsy Stone]

6. Agent Mike?

Is he here?

:hi:

[bleever]

16. We all need to be careful what we say.

Said the highly paid liar.

:)

[WolverineDG]

24. HI AGENT MIKE!

:hi:

say, is it a crime to bore a federal agent to death?

dg

[Patsy Stone]

33. I don't think so

But he'd never find out from reading this thread. Unless, you don't think... Maybe he doesn't mind the stripey combo?

:hi:

[bettyellen]

5. hey Pats! Did you see Scotty calling them frivolous suits today ?

caling FISA court just another "tool"
i thought HE was just another "tool"
:hi:

[Patsy Stone]

8. Shrub

couldn't stop saying "tool" once. Too f'n funny. :rofl:

:hi: He's all stripey again tonight. This outfit looks like a reject from Guys and Dolls, doesn't it? Nathan Detroit? Is that you?

[SharonRB]

13. All he needs is a cigar and a pair of spats.

[bettyellen]

14. he needs a Jack-off hat, doesn't he. Poor Keith.

If Shoppa is right, she (the GF) ain't helping him none with that!
:hi:

[SharonRB]

18. He sure does. That would finish it off just right.

Sboppa?

[bettyellen]

27. that would be a "happy end", yes.. a Jack-Off hat....

i usually don't "do blue" but...

legally blonde, formerly tombstoned.

[Patsy Stone]

39. Don't do blue, baby.

People want to like you. :)

:rofl:

From The Sinatra Group on SNL.

[bettyellen]

46. omigod, i have to get a tape of that. what did he call her?

Sinbad O'Connor?
:rofl:

[Patsy Stone]

48. Sinbad and Sine-Aid

"When I look at you, I think 9 ball in the corner pocket." :rofl:

[bettyellen]

55. the only good joe piscipo ever did, i swear....

my landlord goes to NJ italian american society parties with him.
a little blow, some gabbagoul and figs...
:shrug:

[Patsy Stone]

65. No. no.

It was Phil, not Joe.

...and figs: :rofl:

[bettyellen]

77. oh, no wonder it was so damn funny.....

i'm not kidding, my landlord came back with a fig tree, said joe also had one...
:rofl:

[Berry Cool]

28. A song for Keith, then:

The Biltmore garage wants a grand
But we ain't got a grand on hand.
And they now got a lock on the door
To the gym at P.S. 84.
There's the stock room behind the McCloskey's bar.
But Mrs. McCloskey ain't a good scout.
And things being how they are
The back of the police station is out!
So the Biltmore garage is the spot.
But the one thousand bucks we ain't got.
Why it's good old reliable Nathan!
Nathan, Nathan, Nathan, Detroit!
If you're looking for action, his firm is the spot.
Even when the heat is on, it's never too hot.
Not for good old reliable Nathan!
Where it's always just a short walk
To the oldest established, permanent floating,
Crap game in New York

There are well-heeled shooters everywhere, everywhere
There are well-heeled shooters everywhere.
And an awful lot of lettuce
For the fella who can get us there.
If we only had a lousy little grand
We could be a millionaire!
That's good old reliable Nathan!
Nathan, Nathan, Nathan, Detroit!
If the size of your bundle you want to increase
He'll arrange that you go broke in quiet and peace
In a hideout provided by Nathan
Where there are no neighbors to squawk.
It's the oldest established permanent floating
Crap game in New York.
Where's the action? Where's the game?
Gotta have the game
Or we'll die from shame.
It's the oldest established, permanent floating
Crap game in New York!

[WolverineDG]

26. it's the boss hijack suit

all stripey edition.

dg

[SharonRB]

10. Hey, be

He is just a tool of the administration.

[bettyellen]

9. Is that thing on? *tap tap* hi pats, shar, bleeve!

[Patsy Stone]

15. Lockbox.

I'm sorry, I just had to say it. :)

[SharonRB]

19. ..

:rofl:

[Berry Cool]

20. I'm here.

:hi: to all. See you After the Show.

Oh boy, I hope Keith doesn't say anything more negative about the Democrats than he has already said. GD will be ready to hang him from the highest tree again like last night when he didn't have ENOUGH praise for the Gore speech...

[WolverineDG]

44. well, i'm not wading back in THERE

to explain what "fair" means.... :eyes:

dg

[bettyellen]

22. huh? i just heard Run DMC in my head.... oh no, that's Rockbox

wtf is a lockbox?

[SharonRB]

29. Think Al Gore and 2000 election

'nuf said.

[bettyellen]

31. EVERYTHING happens in Florida, sorry for forgetting that......

[SharonRB]

34. He used to talk about locking Social Security

money in a lockbox.

[bettyellen]

41. i was thinking of the congressional aide riot.. let us in! stop the count!

[Patsy Stone]

99. Ah, yes. DeLay's Brooks Brothers Riot.

:puke:

[Patsy Stone]

98. I'm the king of rock

there is none higher
Sucker MC's should call me sire

[bleever]

25. ROFLMAO.

Oh...oh...oh...whew! Too. Damn. Funny.


:rofl:

[Clark2008]

30. Ohhh... I'd rather hear Al say "lockbox" a gazillion times

than to hear blivet say "Got wood" once!

:hi: all!

[SharonRB]

32. Don't forget about "hard work"

I'm with you, Clark!

:hi:

[Clark2008]

38. "Al Gore lives on my street,

Three-twenty-something, Lynwood Boulevard.
And, he doesn’t know me
but I voted for him. Yeah, I punched the card!
I don’t know how he lives with knowing,
That even though he won the popular vote
He still lives on my street, right down the street
From me.

One time, I had a bike
And I was a kid, and someone stole it from me
And still I’m mad about that,
Carrying anger, I just can’t let it be.
I need to be more forgiving, I know it,
’Cause even with the popular vote,
Al Gore lives on my street, right down the street,
From me."


http://www.cartoonbank.com/newyorker/slideshows/040913algore.html

Edited to add that the song's at the link. Al Gore does not live on my street, unfortunately.

[Patsy Stone]

35. Anything * has to say

I don't want to hear. Unles it's "I resign".

:hi:

[Patsy Stone]

21. Sorry, that's the PERPETUAL War on Terror.

If we're always at war, they can do whatever they want, see. Tres 1984, as we all know.

[bettyellen]

37. Snotty said "maybe Gore FORGOT about 9/11 and that 3,000 people died"

in his best school-girl whine.

even if it was the tiniest bit, remotely forgettable, when has the govt given it a rest for 5 min, huh?
c'mon scotti, it's like the search for Osama, unending. :sarcasm:

[Patsy Stone]

43. Oh, we didn't kill the number two, again, either.

I missed the song and dance recital Scotty gave today. It seems Keith's gonna show a bit of it, but I really should see if it's up somewhere. Love watching him squirm and wiggle.

[bettyellen]

47. here you go Pats!

http://www.democraticunderground.com/discuss/duboard.php?az=view_all&address=364x164198

[Clark2008]

50. Psssshhhhawwww.

If Gore had been president, 9/11 likely would not have happened, Snotty.

Geesch.

[Olney Blue]

92. The more the WH whines, the more we know it got to them!

[SharonRB]

36. Shout out!

That's about a mile from me.

On edit: It's more like 4 miles from me.

[Berry Cool]

88. He mentioned Cleveland yesterday

so my shout-out was first. Nyaah nyaah. :rofl:

[SharonRB]

110. There's a big difference between mentioning a large city

like Cleveland and a small surburb like Ferndale, Michigan, which has a population of less than 25,000.

[gkhouston]

111. and let's face it

the name "Ferndale" has such cachet. ;-) (I agree with your point; I just thought Ferndale was a mildly amusing name. Not so amusing as Monkey Jaw, but hey...)

[SharonRB]

112. LOL

It's a pretty mixed little suburb with an up-and-coming little downtown. There's been a lot of redevelopment the last few years -- trendy little shops, restaurants, etc. It's about 50% blue collar, non-college-educated and the other 50% has a relatively high gay population, college educated, a bit more upscale. Overall, a pretty nice little community with a mixture of vinyl-sided and brick bungalows and small-to-medium-sized homes. It's about a mile away from me.

Ferndale's nickname among some is "Fashionable Ferndale." It used to be pretty ironic, because it was anything but fashionable, but the name is a bit more appropriate these days.

[SharonRB]

40. Another Michigan story

Eminem got married about 30 minutes away from me.

[bettyellen]

42. he should go to med school: fuc king kuack.

[Patsy Stone]

45. LOL!

Very good. :)

[bettyellen]

49. not as good as the sinatra group! Sinbad O Connor! LOL!!

[gkhouston]

104. so he could practice his love for women? n/t

[Patsy Stone]

51. Go David Gregory!

:thumbsup:

What the hell is with Scotty? How does he get up and do this every morning?

[SharonRB]

53. I have no idea

Job description: Just lie everytime you open your mouth. That's it.

[bettyellen]

60. i used to work with a bitch like that, but she was only

in charge of buying piece goods, :shrug:
but she was craftier than scotti, less freudian slips.

[Berry Cool]

75. I would pay on pay-per-view for David Gregory.

:loveya: David!

Oops, now someone will say I'm "in love" with him...excuse me.

[WolverineDG]

96. the expression on his face

when david gregory started chiming in: the textbook definition of "deer in the headlights." the only thing missing from the footage was a BULLSHIT stamp everytime scotty opened his mouth.

dg

[Berry Cool]

101. That would have been hysterical!

Honestly, if my cable channel offered a weekdaily pay-per-view David Gregory Scotty Smackdown, I would pay extra just to watch. It's so entertaining to see Stretch sit there and ask the weasel relevant and pointed questions while he tries to make him look like a creep just for asking...and fails...and also fails to say anything other than the phrases he has been trained to repeat like a parrot whenever confronted by journalists seeing answers.

[SharonRB]

52. David Gregory

:loveya:

[bettyellen]

57. they call him stretch

and when they're not so nice "the dancing queen" .
wag that finger and shake that ass, dave. it's all good!

[SharonRB]

59. David Gregory is gay?

:rofl:

[bettyellen]

64. i guess he must be single, and since he's cute...

but some assholes were showing a clip of him boogying down last summer, that's where it came from.
i'm sure the poor baby was flailing, he's pretty damned tall.
BTW, did you see the pic of justice roberts at some kind of BBQ with Village People lookalikes?
Not that there'd be anything wrong with that, if he was out.

[SharonRB]

72. I'm not sure if I saw that one

But I saw the one of him with those two guys having dinner or birthday cake or something. They all looked gay. And, again, not that there's anything wrong with that, but I'd love to see some heads explode if it turned out to be true.

[bettyellen]

86. That's it! and our BOTANY posted it! LOL.

it's really all in the body language, although the grooming is kinda telling too.
look at the guy holding the plates arms, leaning forward with his elbows pushed together like it's a cheescake picture. hey, that's MY move!
:rofl:

[Berry Cool]

78. Gregory is married and has kids.

Not that that keeps people from being gay.

I'm just saying, he's not single.

[bettyellen]

87. omigod i'm crushed!

not.

[Berry Cool]

94. Well, Betty, I hate to be the bearer of bad news...

but not only is David Gregory married, he's...uh, way younger than me.

WAAAAAAAHHHH! :cry:

[Clark2008]

54. Poppin' Newt on the use of the word "plantation."

:yourock: Keith!!

:loveya: :loveya:

[Botany]

56. Scotty McCellen aka Puffy McMoonface

Fu** you Scott ...... how many times did Mr. Abramoff go to the White House?
There is a log which records all visits ..... can we see the logs?

[SharonRB]

58. Al has certainly been beatified around DU

I couldn't even count all the threads yesterday, leave alone read them.

[bettyellen]

61. i can't believe i listened to the whole thing!

over an hour, and all of it was good.
his delivery is still a littl sing- song, choppy. but it was brilliant. the plaid adder coulda written that thing!

[SharonRB]

63. He was on fire

I heard a lot of it, but not all of it. What I heard was totally amazing.

[bettyellen]

68. it felt historic, truly. it took a lot of guts to do that.

i am now officially a big fan. i was pissed at him for distancing himself from clinton, but he is now forgiven.

[Clark2008]

62. Well, Al Gore is beautiful.

But, unlike the vast majority of DU, I honestly believe the man is happier NOT in politics and won't run and we shouldn't hitch our hopes to that never-rising star.

But, Al IS BEAUTIFUL:



My first political crush (I was in high school).

[Olney Blue]

76. Today, I downloaded his speech as a pdf file.

I read it two times- it's amazing!

[Patsy Stone]

66. $400 a month???

for the GPS?

[bettyellen]

70. Pats, i linked you to the scotty show upthread.

becasue it was pretty darn good!

[Patsy Stone]

74. I saw the link and I thank you

I'm sorry I missed it live.

[bettyellen]

91. the gregory stuff was priceless,

also another british woman at the end was really trying to nail him in ignoring FISA indiscriminately.
she was great, too. but DG rocked!

[WolverineDG]

97. i did?

oh, you mean david gregory. my bad. :blush:

:hi: be!!!

dg

[gkhouston]

105. why not? Desperate housewives will pay $400.

So will stalkers. :grr:

[Olney Blue]

67. Hi everyone! Long day at work....

:hi:

[bleever]

69. Mon: that color looks great on you.

:)

Hair's looking great, too. When you gonna guest host? We, the public, demand it!

[gkhouston]

106. Seconded. We want Monica (the next time Keith's off). n/t

[Patsy Stone]

71. Alright. Who saw Keith "closed body posture" at the end of Gidge's story?

Was it just me? I don't think he's liking that gadget very much. :)

[Berry Cool]

82. Oh, it must mean he's about to cheat on his girlfriend.

:rofl:

But hey, when he uncrossed his arms we got a good glimpse of his man-bracelet.

[SharonRB]

73. I'm glad he's got this guy who hired Beck as

Worst Person in the World.

[gkhouston]

107. I just wish this guy didn't even exist

I had a great boss a zillion years ago with the same name and I get a lot of cognitive dissonance hearing about the things this jerk has said. :crazy:

[SharonRB]

79. Clooney was so good last night!

[bleever]

80. Did Keef just say biOPic?

Isn't that emPHAsis on the wrong sylLABle?

[Patsy Stone]

93. Maybe

But he's still no Rick Sanchez when it comes to that. Keith's gonna have to work harder to compete.

[Berry Cool]

102. I don't think Keith wants to compete with Rick Sanchez.

He'd be more than happy to skip the "survive a taser" competition, for one.

[ralps]

81. Hi Patsy, Hi Everyone. I was at my parents for dinner, but I'm here now.

My computer will be in the shop for a couple more days starting tomorrow so I'll be back on dial up until Friday or so. :hi: :loveya: :hug: :pals: :woohoo:

[Olney Blue]

90. Hi ralps! I got here late too. Nice to see you!

[SharonRB]

83. Gayer than Ikea on Super Bowl Sunday

:rofl:

[Patsy Stone]

89. I couldn't type fast enough

That was hysterical. :rofl:

[Olney Blue]

84. Gayer than Ikea on superbowl Sunday....

haven't heard that one...

[SharonRB]

85. I hated this dress

And, Drew? Put a bra on!

[Patsy Stone]

95. The Gwyneth dress?

Or the Mariah Scary dress? Either way, feh.

Cynthia Nixon looked great.

[SharonRB]

103. Both Mariah and Gwyneth

They were both awful in different ways.

Gwyneth: Just because you're pregnant, doesn't mean you can't look a little glamorous. The Little Bo Peep look just didn't cut it.

[gkhouston]

108. the Gwyneth dress: looked like she got tangled up in the

canopy hanging over her bed and decided to wear that to the awards. :eyes:

[SharonRB]

109. ..

:rofl:

[crispini]

100. This is TOTALLY the boss hijack suit.

Anyne here? I am... :hi:

I'm wiped ... saving the world is hard work.....
