[RevCheesehead]

Time to post your floaties! :loveya::loveya::loveya:

[CC]

1. Hi Rev.

Couldn't they wait until 9 to show the opening ceremonies. Taping them watching KO.

[RevCheesehead]

3. Hi, Ferrettessa!

Not while there's East Coast/West Coast delay. :hi:

[CC]

16. Might of made it

better, then everyone could see it at the same time...would be 6 on the west coast. But then I would of watch this morning had they be on live.

[Berry Cool]

107. Cheer up! The first hour was just blather!

Berry After the Show just tuned in to the opening ceremonies and they are just beginning!

[Patsy Stone]

112. Bob Costas Explains It All.

:hi: Berry.

[RevCheesehead]

118. I love Bob.

He is floaty-worthy.

Bob:loveya:Costas

[Patsy Stone]

123. ...and ...now ...they're forming a beating heart...

It's always fun to hear him explain the symbolism behind the pageantry.

[Patsy Stone]

7. Me too!

But I think I might sneak over to them if the second half is all celeb news.

So far, "Heckuva Hearing" Brownie is a great start to the show.

Hi, CC! :hi:

[RevCheesehead]

12. Hiya, Pats!

Glad you can join us for the first half! :hi:

[CC]

21. Hi Patsy

I will try flipping during commercials. But don't want to miss Keith's take on the news today.

[Berry Cool]

109. Hi all.

:hi: Berry After the Show expects to be Berry WAAAAAY After the Show for the next two weeks, but tonight I'm here while the big fella pounds the anvil.

[RevCheesehead]

113. Hi, Berry.

Are ya feeling better tonight? :hi:

[Patsy Stone]

116. Are they supposed to be skating cows?

:eyes:

[Berry Cool]

122. "NBC Presents..."

"...Dancing with the Cows!"

[RevCheesehead]

130. It works for me!

And don't let anyone fool ya - Happy Cows live in Wisconsin.

[SharonRB]

154. I stayed away last night because of the ceremonies and then

they didn't really start until 9, so I was able to watch KO. I was upstairs, though, and kept thinking they'd start anytime.

[ralps]

2. Hi RevCheesehead, It sure seems as though Brownie hit back

:hi: :loveya: :hug: :pals: :woohoo:
edited to add floaties for Keith :loveya: :loveya: :loveya: :loveya: :loveya: :loveya: :loveya: :loveya: :loveya: :loveya:

[RevCheesehead]

4. Hi, ralps!

I love the way he snarked Coleman... I saw it live! :bounce::bounce:

[Olney Blue]

5. Hi Rev!

:hi:

[RevCheesehead]

9. Hi, Olney!

Every time I hear Lieberman, I think "Droopy Dawg." :hi:

[Olney Blue]

14. LOL.

:smoke:

[bleever]

17. I liked Droopy Dawg more than I do Lieberman.

:hi:

Happy Friday, Fromage.

[RevCheesehead]

23. LOL

Jon Stewart does a good Droopy/Lieberman.

To the Cheese that Binds! :toast:

[bleever]

26. How did you know my cheese was binding today?

Incredible!

:toast:

[RevCheesehead]

29. because I'm stuck on you...

:loveya:

:snark:

[bleever]

49. It's all about the Cheese.

[RevCheesehead]

52. Oh, that's where he went!

:rofl: I love that shot!

[Patsy Stone]

18. Hey, Rev!

:rofl:

I grew up with hundreds of old men with that voice. Some even in my own family. I immediately think I'm in temple and I go to sleep. :)

[RevCheesehead]

27. Oy vey.

Shabbat Shazzam, dear!

[Patsy Stone]

31. LOFL!

:yourock:

[RevCheesehead]

34. hee-hee....

what was that about "travelling on the Sabbath?" Did blivet say that, or was it Jack-off?

Oh well, consider the above photo appropriate for either one of them. :evilgrin:

[CBHagman]

75. Hey! That's one of the voices I do.

My patented Joseph Lieberman imitation. I wish I were going to NYC; then I could demonstrate for the KOEB. That voice and my Peter Lorre voice. Our old news director used to do a pretty scary Strom Thurmond imitation (no roving hands, though).

Hi, Patsy. :hi:

[Patsy Stone]

80. Hi, CB!

That might come in very handy for me. If I can't fall asleep, I'm gonna call you, okay? :)

You'll just have to come to the next gathering. :toast:

[RevCheesehead]

83. Hi, CB!

Nice to see ya again! :hi:

[CBHagman]

95. Hey, Reverend!

Got any spiritual counsel for someone who can't stop cursing the GOP? I'm afraid the priest is going to say, "Not that again!" the next time I go to confession. :blush:

[RevCheesehead]

103. Are you kidding?

I wouldn't be surprised if the next time, the priest JOINS you in cursing them! And if he doesn't, he hasn't been paying attention! O8)

[ralps]

6. LOL Brownie hitting back at Norm Coleman

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

[Botany]

66. Did I ever tell you that you are my Fav EDV?

Brownie .... they missed his best shot @ Coleman.

Brownie Ask me any ? ..... anything @ all.
Coleman Ahh ..... ahhhh ... my time is up.

[ralps]

82. Yep that was a good one posted both at crooksandliars and canofun

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

[Berry Cool]

110. Well, Brownie is obviously trying to cover his own butt because

he should never have been hired in the first place...but it sure is interesting to find out what Brown can do for us!

[Olney Blue]

8. Brownie is squirming away.

[Olney Blue]

10. Keith is very brown (nie?) tonight.

:loveya::loveya::loveya::loveya:

[RevCheesehead]

20. Coincidence?

I think not... although, if he really wanted to make a statement, he could have gone with the GSB suit. :)

[gkhouston]

165. have we seen the GSB suit since we started talking tie?

I think not. You don't suppose he's waiting for his present? :rofl:

[Patsy Stone]

11. Brownie

Did a lot for me today.

LOL! Richard Wolffe : "Clearly, no one has been listening to Scott McClellan..."

[RevCheesehead]

15. This is news to him?

I thought people stopped listening to him months ago. :eyes:

[Patsy Stone]

36. I listen to him

So I can catch him in the lies. :)

[Berry Cool]

I loved that "nobody is listening to Scott McClellan" line!

Well, why should they when all he has to say is the same old thing over and over?

[bleever]

22. Man, are the wheels falling off this outfit or what?

Happy Friday!

:hi:

[Patsy Stone]

25. Yepper

And it is fun to watch.

Good Shabbos, bleever. :hi:

[bleever]

35. The very best of Shabboses to you, Pats.

Shabbi?


:shrug:

[Patsy Stone]

42. I think

you were right the first time. :)

[bleever]

53. Yay for me.

Not too shabbi.

:hi:

[Patsy Stone]

56. Does that rhyme

with rabbi?

[ralps]

13. LOL " Nobody's been listening to Scott McClellan" about playing the

blame game. :hi: :loveya: :hug: :pals: :woohoo:

[crispini]

19. Hi Rev! Thanks for posting the thread!

:hi: You're doing a heckuva job! :evilgrin:

I like this suit. :loveya: Chocolate.

[RevCheesehead]

32. Crrrrrrispi!!

I thought of you today while at ShopKo.
In the Valentine's section, they had red plastic "Love Cuffs."

Damn - I shoulda bought you a pair to add to your collection! :rofl:

[crispini]

51. Girl. Red PLASTIC ? Strictly amateur.

But it's the thought that counts, hey? :loveya:

[RevCheesehead]

58. I think you're not supposed to use them...

except to hang them on your rear-view mirror.

But what do you expect for $2.99? :shrug:

[Berry Cool]

121. Shh! Ix-nay on the uffs-cay!

Agent Mike is reading! (sticking out tongue)

[RevCheesehead]

136. HEY, AGENT MIKE!!!

[crispini]

142. ROFL!

There ya go, Agent Mike! :hi:

[gkhouston]

164. Hmm. Still missing Sparky, I see. n/t

[Olney Blue]

39. Hi Crispini!

I love the white shirt against the dark brown.

Nice.

:loveya:

[crispini]

57. Hi Olney!

Yes, this is a nice combo. :hi:

[bleever]

41. Happy Friday, crispi!

A great week for news.


:hi:

[crispini]

55. Hey Bleev!

It has been a good week, indeed! :hi:

[bleever]

73. Except I've got a sore throat, which has me feeling flatter than

*'s SOTU bounce.


:hi:

[crispini]

74. If you think it's a cold, take zinc lozenges.

Zinc really helped knock out my last cold.

[bleever]

85. I am the world's biggest fan of this stuff:

Zinc gluconate, most amazing symptom relief I've ever had.

[crispini]

88. Very good!

:thumbsup:

[bleever]

94. Works better in conjunction with this:

[Patsy Stone]

99. Is it a party?

Or are you drinking out of every glass in the house? :rofl:

[bleever]

106. It increases the chances I can find my glass.

:crazy:

[Patsy Stone]

115. Also, it serves

as an assurance that you really are seeing double. :)

[Patsy Stone]

44. Don't forget Agent Mike!

He's doing a heckuva job too! :hi:, crispi!

One week from today we'll be toasting in person. :toast:

[crispini]

61. One week! Cool! I'm looking forward to it!

Unless.... :scared: YOU'RE agent Mike! :wow:

[bleever]

24. "Condoms To Go"?!?

I thought you ALWAYS had to buy them to go.


:rofl:

[crispini]

28. That's my brother's favorite joke.

"Condoms to go" ... no, I'll have them for here, thanks. :evilgrin:

[bleever]

43. I just read today that 75% of the condoms sold in India

are used for other purposes than the one intended.


:shrug:

[Olney Blue]

47. Water balloons?

[Patsy Stone]

50. Okay, ready for this?

http://www.theage.com.au/articles/2004/08/13/1092340459567.html

Here are some snips:

"According to two university reports, rural villagers have used them as disposable water containers to wash, after relieving themselves in the fields. India's military have covered gun and tank barrels with condoms as protection against dust."

"Of the 891 million condoms meant to be handed out free, a considerable proportion were acquired by road-building contractors who mixed them with concrete and tar and used the mixture to construct roads, rendering road surfaces smooth and resistant to cracks."

"Weavers in Varanasi used around 200,000 condoms a day to lubricate their looms and to polish the gold and silver thread used to embroider the saris they produced. Sari maker Yusuf Bhai said they purchased the condoms from agents, who reportedly acquired them from agencies involved in family planning and AIDS prevention schemes."

???

[bleever]

63. Okay, first of all: the fact you found that info.

Second, condom highways? Smooth and resistant to cracks?

And third: Varanasi is one of my favorite places on the planet Earth.

[Patsy Stone]

68. Well, then I'm sure you take

comfort in the fact that their looms are well-lubricated.

Yes, the internets are scary. :)

"We have all these damn condoms... Let's do something with them! Ideas? Anyone?"

[bleever]

86. Mini-bombs to mail to strip clubs?

:shrug:

[Berry Cool]

127. Yeah, but isn't it ironic that they're "Condoms to *Go*" when...

they're really for when someone...ah, er, I think I'll just stop right there.

[gkhouston]

166. If you're Japanese, most definitely. n/t

[Botany]

30. Rev, Did I ever tell you that you are my Fav EDV?

Please don't tell the others .... you know how they can be.



Figured you would want a little snack

[RevCheesehead]

37. you bring me beer and brats....

and I'll be your devoted slave.










For the next hour.







:rofl:
:loveya:

[Botany]

79. but can i get a quick prayer of forgiveness .... I have sinned!

but no Rev work on an empty stomach

[RevCheesehead]

87. Hey!

Are you trying to lure me into cannibalism?? :rofl:

Lord, forgive Botany. You know why. Besides, it's just him. Another one of your misguided creations - but he has good intentions. And he loves Bay-Airs. And the KOEB. Amen.

O8)

[Botany]

100. did you miss the compassion part in devinity school?

"Another one of your misguided creations....."

[RevCheesehead]

105. Hey, don't blame me - blame the Big Guy.

Gal. Whatever.

S/He is the one who gave you free will. :hi:

[Botany]

111. Your mistake is my fault?

:grr: :rofl:

[RevCheesehead]

117. Is that the Dells, or Apostle Islands?

I will be good (for once), and refrain from making any suggestive comments on those particular rock formations. O8)

[Botany]

126. Apostle Islands

Sea caves ......

I :loveya: Bayfield & Washburn that whole Chequamegon peninsula is awesome .... me go next summer w/ son.

[RevCheesehead]

139. good choice!

:thumbsup:

Have you ever seen the Painted Rocks? On the border with the UP of Michigan - they're absolutely gorgeous. On a bright, sunny day, the colors really pop.

[Botany]

147. the rocks off the Chequamegon have nice colors too.

Nice little place that has great beer & whitefish outside of Bayfield.

Birch Grove Campground ...... Pine / Oak Scrub Country ...... Oh my!

[bleever]

129. Hey, I thought it was the Dells too. I was going to post a picture of

the Ducks.

[RevCheesehead]

143. You could just narrow it down to "God's Country."

But only the Dells has the Ducks!

[Botany]

Dells nice but too touristy

I do have a friend N. of there in Westfield.

Lots of Cranes

Caaaa -Hooonk! noisy birds ... especially w/ a hangover.

[Berry Cool]

140. "Timothy...Timothy...where on earth did the Rev go..."

Timothy, Timothy, why doesn't BOTANY know?????????

[RevCheesehead]

145. Peter.... Peter.....

I can see your house from here!

:rofl:

[Patsy Stone]

151. LOL!

I love that joke. :rofl:

[crispini]

93. Yuuuuuuuuuum.

Cheeeeeeeeeese cake....

[Botany]

114. Have your own piece

[crispini]

119. Thanks sweetie!

You're my fav... :loveya: don't tell the others. ;)

[Botany]

128. I won't!

BTW that was N.Y. style cheesecake.

Snark Dog ...... on the hunt for EDVs

[WolverineDG]

162. Snark dog is waaaay off track

if he's looking for EDV's that is...we'll be in NYC while the dog is looking for us on the Thameslink in London!!
:rofl:

dg

[Patsy Stone]

33. Who's the stanka?

Go, KO! :loveya:

Oh... David Shuster! :loveya:

[Berry Cool]

131. "Who's the stanka?" was classic!

Leave it to Keith to somehow turn one of his own uniquely baseball-centric introductions to a news story into a bad pun!

[Olney Blue]

38. Jack- give us the photos!

[Patsy Stone]

40. Maybe the Enquirer got to him first?

Lots of moola...

[ralps]

45. Mmmmmmmmmm Pie!!!! although of course this photo isn't of the

"World's Largest Pie It is the "World's largest Apple Pie" according to google

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

[Botany]

46. ? Didn't Crispini have a boyfriend by the name of Joe Stanka?

Snark Dog on the look out for EDVs

KO and the show are kicking ass tonight.

Bay Air Jumps.

[ralps]

54. Hi Botany, great photo of a Bay Air!!!!!

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

[Botany]

70. Have a Bay Air EE good time

http://www.bear.org/Grizzly/GB_Home.html

[ralps]

89. Thanks for the link Botany

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

[RevCheesehead]

48. Ha! Keith said "Brazillian."

Of course, I heard it as "Brazillion."

So the pie was made in Ohio - is that a shout-out to Berry, or Botany?

[Botany]

59. doubtful ......

KO ..... just wanted to say big pie.

SNARK BOMB!

Stoned off your ass.

[Berry Cool]

133. The shout-out was to me, of course. Bot don't need no stinkin' shout-outs.

And the Friday night marijuana reference was for Patsy, of course.

[Patsy Stone]

60. The Brazillian in MIAMI!

:loveya:

Also, if it's Friday...

[RevCheesehead]

67. Patsy!!

Check out the link to Shabbat!! There's music!!
:rofl:

http://www.italya.net/zarko/book/book.htm

[Patsy Stone]

77. Not JUST music

But MIDI Italian-Jewish accordion music! :rofl:

[Patsy Stone]

62. And:

How many is a Brazillion? :rofl:

[RevCheesehead]

69. Hmmm... I've heard that question before...

[Patsy Stone]

71. Correct!

And I still haven't heard a truthful answer from Rummy! :)

[Botany]

64. The Great Bet-Ski

:rofl:

Botany shoots .... & he scores.

[Olney Blue]

65. Sorry, I think Wayne knew.

[RevCheesehead]

72. Did we just hear Keith's next blog?

Propecia-Gate?

[Patsy Stone]

84. I double dog dare him to blog!

Hear me, KO? I dare you! :loveya:

[RevCheesehead]

91. Yeah? Well, I TRIPLE-DOG DARE YA, Keith!

please? :)

[crispini]

92. Triple dog!

C'mon, KO, we'll even call off the stalking expedition to the Upper East Side if ya blog! :evilgrin:

[Gogi]

153. He's not trembling in his boots...

KO lives on the Upper WEST Side.

And Krakatoa is WEST not EAST of Java.:rofl:

[Berry Cool]

156. You realize what this means, Gogi...

The KOEB'ers going to New York?

They're DIGGING IN THE WRONG PLACE!

They'll NEVER find the Secret Map Room of the City that way! You know, the one where they put the finial on top of the pole and put it in just the right place at just the right time of day, and the sunlight comes through the jewel mounted in the finial and shines a bright blinding light on...

[tatia_s]

159. I thought he lived...

on the south side of central park?

Maybe there are just a bunch of KO doppelgangers roaming the city to throw you guys off?

[bleever]

98. Nahhh...he's chicken! Chicken, I tell ya!

:P

[Berry Cool]

137. Uh-oh.

In response to this Triple Dog Dare, I predict that Keith will get his dander up, summon up all his courage and...run out to the nearest flagpole and stick his tongue to it.

Then all the KOEB'ers going to New York will have to go run and breathe their soft warm breaths on him until he is loosened.

[RevCheesehead]

146. are you planning on flying stand-by??

:evilgrin:

[crispini]

76. So they got sick after communion, hey Rev?

Hm........................ :silly:

[RevCheesehead]

81. I think it's a good argument for using wine instead.

Thank goodness it wasn't in a Catholic Church.... how do you tell your parish that the real blood of Jesus got them sick? :scared:

[crispini]

90. Bwah! nt

[bleever]

124. Wooo....theological snark!

Don't try this at home! Trained professional on a closed course.

:rofl:

[Berry Cool]

157. You bet, Rev!

I mean, since when has anyone ever gotten sick from drinking wine??? :rofl:

[ralps]

78. Yay!!! I'm sure Keith is going to hi-light B*sh's latest Blooper

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

[Patsy Stone]

96. Okay, he's phoning in the last story

I'm off to watch the Olympics.

See you all later!

[CBHagman]

97. Protect our asses!

:rofl: We all know that's the FIRST duty of an elected official!

Go, Mayor!

[livvy]

101. I must say...that was an excellent closing! Very good!n/t

[RevCheesehead]

108. Hi, livvy!

Nice to have you join us tonight! :hi:

[livvy]

134. Hi! I drop by now and then, but mostly read and don't post.

Loved the Keithsters ending tonight, so I had to comment!
He is adorable and so funny. Nice to know there is one media person who can actually speak the truth!

[RevCheesehead]

102. I finally got to see "Good Night and Good Luck" today!

I was so hoping Keith would use it at the end. Hooray!! :loveya:

[Patsy Stone]

104. He still does

But he replaced "Keep your knees loose". This is so much better. :loveya:

[crispini]

120. Great film isn't it?

And MY, The Clooney is just always sooooo droolworthy.

[RevCheesehead]

125. Quite a collection of Hunk-O-Ramas there, too.

Clooney, Straitharn, Jeff Daniels, Robert Downey, Jr....
Seems like the only ones missing were Keith and Johnny Depp. :loveya:

[Patsy Stone]

135. Oh, see...

Now you just had to go and mention Depp, didn't you? :loveya:

[Berry Cool]

138. Oh man, these people doing the formations representing different sports

are so cool!

[Patsy Stone]

141. That was great

Hubby also liked the "spark helmet cam". :)

[Patsy Stone]

132. Camera loves him...

Loves him, loves him...

[crispini]

144. Eep!

Swoooooooooooon. :loveya:

[Berry Cool]

148. And let the American disco music of the '70s commence.

That's what they played during the whole Parade of Nations, pretty much, from what I hear. Bizarre choice, eh?

on edit: It's Parade of Nations Puppet Theatre!

on second edit: My interesting observation of the night...that the Danish team entered the stadium to the tune of "Please Don't Let Me Be Misunderstood."

Someone has a sense of politics.

[Patsy Stone]

150. WTF?

It was like a Greatest Hits album. The only country it seemed to fit was Australia. :)

[SharonRB]

155. Hey, Pats

What was up with the music? Doesn't Italy have any good music to march in by?

I loved the part when they did the formation of the skier with all the people in different colors. That was just so cool.

[Patsy Stone]

160. I thought so too.

The ceremonies were beautiful except for that strange choice of music. :crazy:

I liked the people on the wires who climbed up the scaffolding to form a bird in flight.

Hi, Shar! :hi:

[Patsy Stone]

152. Okay... Now we've moved up tp the 80s

Depeche Mode "Just Can't Get Enough"? Who chose this music?

[Berry Cool]

158. Maybe the music was actually chosen by the Countdown staff on a lark!

Think about it. Some of their favorites got played, no? And the use of MJ's "Don't Stop 'Til You Get Enough" is like a dead giveaway.

The only thing was, there wasn't any of The Cure. Someone on staff definitely likes The Cure. They play "Close to Me" and "Just Like Heaven" a lot during Top 3 Soundbites.

[Patsy Stone]

161. It's as good as any explanation

I might come up with. When I heard "Video Killed the Radio Star", I was positive it was just some compilation CD. :)

And, awwww:



:loveya:

[RevCheesehead]

149. ....

:9



(where's Merh when you need her to drool all over the place??)

[WolverineDG]

163. and so do i
