On a thread by Husb2Sparkly:

      Sex work should be legal
I think any other view is tainted with leftover Calvinism.

response #2 by HereSince1628:

      You and Jesse Ventura
Why would you support an industry where the workers so regularly end up getting screwed? :silly:

      I don't know...sex at work would seriously hurt productivity...n/t

response #17 by newmajority:

      That's pretty much how it's done in Nevada
The "working girls" are tested for everything, the customers wear condoms, and they even take showers before and after, so it's very clean.

Er.... so I've been told. O8)

response #17 by LeftyMom:

      Agreed.
Some women think otherwise, that their education or their background makes them especially well equipped to know what is best for other women, to determine what sorts of work are fulfilling and which degrading, and that this dividing line must matter as much to all women as it does to them. (They never seem to notice that plenty of men also choose sex work, though in many cases- porn for example- women make better pay. I'm not sure how they square this with their idea of sex work as inherently oppressive of women- not all sex work even involves women.)

I fail to see how this is any less oppressive than letting men decide, legally or only through cultural mores, what work women may do.

response #23 by LostinVA:

      Good post
Racist, pube hater.

response #26 by LeftyMom:

      You are the doublesided silicone tool of the patriarchy!
:P

response #28 by LostinVA:

      Actually, I'm the singlesided cyberskin tool of the patriarchy!
Viva la Mr. Bendy!

response #37 by LeftyMom:

      I stand corrected.
:patriot:

response #53 by DavidD:

      And legal work should be sexy!
But I'm not holding my breath for either to happen.

On a thread by sabra:

      Pope a No-Show at White House Dinner
"Guess who's not coming to dinner?

Pope Benedict XVI — he's not attending a White House dinner in his honor on Wednesday.

President Bush will go out to Andrews Air Force Base on Tuesday to welcome the pope on his first visit to the United States since he was elected pontiff in 2005. On Wednesday there will be a formal welcoming ceremony on the South Lawn of the White House with up to 12,000 guests..."

He lost his Wednesday underwear? The dinner falls on the same day as a sacred Nazi holiday? He's boycotting because Haggee gave $6M to the Jews?

Oh, oh, oh, I know. He refuses to submit himself to a Homeland Security Department body cavity search.

response #25 by mac2:

response #33 by alfredo:

      He's got tickets to see "Rent" at the Nederlander Theatre in NY that night.
He had to kiss a lot of ass to get those tickets.

response #44 by BeHereNow:

Dining with the 1st beast of Revelation 13 is not exactly an appetizing thought.

On a thread by Lobster Martini:

      DUer quoted in the Miami Herald...about Cheney's fly fishing...guess Dick didn't find it funny...
"Naked woman reflected in Cheney's sunglasses?

WASHINGTON –

He shot his hunting partner, but Vice President Dick Cheney apparently doesn't fly fish with naked women.

Since Wednesday, the blogosphere has been atwitter over a photograph on the White House website of Cheney with a caption that said he was fly-fishing on the Snake River in Idaho.

The photo is a tight shot of Cheney's face sporting dark sunglasses and his trademark grin.

What's stirring all the buzz is the reflection in the vice president's dark glasses. Some thought that the reflection looked like a naked woman and, this being Cheney and this being the Internet Age, they immediately shared that thought with the world.

In a Google search for the words 'Dick Cheney' and 'sunglasses,' 79,300 hits came back at midafternoon on Thursday.

On DemocraticUnderground.com, the discussion starts with this question: 'Notice anything . . . interesting . . . reflected in his sunglasses? Something that has little to do with conventional `fly-fishing?'

<snip>

The vice president's office saw little humor in the buzz..."

response #3 by Steve_DeShazer:

      Good to know Cheney and his staff read Democratic Underground!
:hi:

You evil, rotten bastard.

response #5 by GodlessBiker:

      It's clearly a blow-up sex doll.

      Spring Break - Vice Presidents Gone Wild.......nt

response #18 by zbdent:

      So that's what they're calling it these days ...
If I'd have known that in my young teen years ...

"Hey, why do you spend so much time in the bathroom?"

"I'm fly-fishing, ma ..."

OP by IDemo:

      Can the f*@#ing "Gates" already
Enough of the Gate-o-the-Day bs. It hasn't worked real well as so far as a campaign tool, unless by "working well" you mean watching Obama hit a series of softballs out of the park. It will not work tomorrow, the next day, or the day after.

Not every statement or action equates to a Gate. Sorry if that leaves some people feeling a little bitter, in keeping with today's theme. Keep lobbin' em in anyway, if that's all ya got. But cease and desist from attaching a gate to every real and imagined offense!

response #1 by Starbucks Anarchist:

      This will be Can-the-gateGate.

response #2 by BattyDem:

      I agree. I'm sick of Bill Gates and his Microsoft monopoly.
Oh ... nevermind. ;-)

response #3 by Buzz Clik:

      Breaking: The founder of Microsoft caught sneaking out the backdoor in his estate fence.
It's the Bill Gates gategate.

On a thread by kpete:

      How DARE He Drink Orange Juice!
"MATTHEWS: He's (Sen. Barack Obama) not that good at that -- handshaking in a diner.

SHUSTER: No --

MATTHEWS: Barack doesn't seem to know how to do that right.

SHUSTER: -- he doesn't do that well. But then you see him in front of 15,000 people in some of these college towns, and that's why, Chris, we've seen Chelsea Clinton and Bill Clinton in Bloomington and South Bend and Terre Haute. I mean --

MATTHEWS: What's so hard about doing a diner? I don't get it. Why doesn't he go in there and say, "Did you see the papers today? What do you think about that team? How did we do last night?" Just some regular connection?

SHUSTER: Well, here's the other thing that we saw on the tape, Chris, is that, when Obama went in, he was offered coffee, and he said, "I'll have orange juice."

MATTHEWS: No.

SHUSTER: He did.

And it's just one of those sort of weird things. You know, when the owner of the diner says, "Here, have some coffee," you say, "Yes, thank you," and, "Oh, can I also please have some orange juice, in addition to this?" You don't just say, "No, I'll take orange juice," and then turn away and start shaking hands. That's what happens (unintelligible) --

MATTHEWS: You don't ask for a substitute on the menu.

SHUSTER: Exactly.

MATTHEWS: David, what a regular guy. You could do this. Anyway, thank you, David Shuster. I mean, go to the diners..."


response #2 by 48percenter:

      The media gets more irrelevant and ridiculous by the day.
What will they say when Gramps McInsane orders prune juice? :rofl:

response #13 by BearSquirrel2:

      We all forgot the true Matthews barometer ...
If Obama wants to get on Matthews good side, he'll go to a drug store and walk out with a case of old spice. Then he'd go to the leather store so he could dress like a cowboy. And then ... lots of beer ...

domestic. That is, it would be from some small brewery out in the "territories".

Matthews problem is that he is about 100 years too late for writing political columns for leading civil war publications.

response #26 by aquarius dawning:

      Obama should reject OJ because everyone knows that OJ kills.

On a thread by bigtree:

      "My campaign drives people to drink," Clinton said.
"Sen. Hillary Clinton stopped by Bronko’s Restaurant and Lounge in Crown Point, Ind., tonight. Clinton stood by the bar and took a shot of Crown Royal whiskey. She took one sip of the shot, then another small sip, then a few seconds later threw her head back and finished off the whole thing..."

response #5 by BlueDogDemocratNH:

      For her encore...
She played some AC/DC on the jukebox and bellowed along to "Hell's Bells", got in a fight with a guy who bumped up against her, threw up in the bathroom, peed in the alley behind the bar, and was taken into protective custody by the Hammond police.

response #11 by ruggerson:

      And no bitters even

response #8 by rug:

      Hillary drinks shots! Obama sips beer!
I don't want either of them calling me at 3 am.

response #56 by quakerboy:

      Somewhere in this country
George Bush is weeping softly and asking anyone who will listen why they won't let him go drink with the voters.

OP by EOO:

      Let's talk like they do in GD:P!
I'll start:

Hillary for fucking Pres!

If you dont support Obama for president, you are not a democrat and a traitor to your party!!!

No Hillary is the greatest!!! If you do not support her you are a sexist!!!

Anti-Obama supporters like yourself are the biggest racist bigot douchebags in the country!

response #6 by flvegan:

      I just talked to a squirrel that said he's voting for Hillary, and he said...

response #10 by jberryhill:

      THAT SQUIRREL is the reason I will NEVER vote for Hillary
I'm sorry, but it is squirrels like that which have totally convinced me that if she gets the nomination I will personally light myself on fire instead of vote.

response #13 by flvegan:

      Your self-incineration is a vote for McCain.
Asshole.

:P

response #14 by jberryhill:

      What does it matter
McCain is every bit as pro-squirrel as Hillary.

In fact, Hillary has taken more money from the squirrel lobbyists than anyone in the race.

We've had enough squirrels. It's time to start supporting nuts instead.

:eyes: :think:

response #26 by regularguy:

      You support your candidate because you reflexively

OP by frogcycle:

      Better Butter
Betty Botter bought some butter,
"But," she said, "this butter's bitter.
If I bake this bitter butter,
It will make my batter bitter.
But a bit of better butter -
That would make my batter better."
So she bought a bit of butter,
Better than her bitter butter,
And she baked it in her batter,
And the batter was not bitter.
So 'twas better Betty Botter
Bought a bit of better butter.

OP by MN Against Bush:

      Wow, I just found out that I am a multi-millionaire latte drinker with an Ivy League education!
Listen up everyone because this is amazing. Just yesterday I thought that I was just another working class person with an income under 30K a year, but today I found out that that is not the case at all.

I am actually an elitist multi-millionaire who went to an Ivy League school. I sure don't remember what the halls of Harvard looked like, but I am sure that is just because I was just too drunk on the $1,200 dollar a bottle premium red wine must I must have been drinking every day while I was there.

But I must have gotten an Ivy League education, because the pundits who are supporting Hillary and McCain told me that Obama supporters are elitists. Of course pundits are just ordinary Americans struggling to get by on the meager salaries offered to powerful Washington power brokers and national television personalities, so they clearly must understand what ordinary citizens are facing.

But I can't understand what it is like, because I just found out that this little home that I pay $600 a month to live in is actually a mansion in a gated community! I may not see the gates, but the pundits tell me they are there and pundits are never wrong!

Wow, I am so excited to find out that I am a wealthy elitist that I think I am going to go slam down a latte to celebrate. I never realized it before, but lattes are my favorite drink. I thought I had only tried a latte once when I decided to spend three dollars to try out a new flavor, but Hillary supporters are telling me that I drink lattes all the time so I figure they must just taste so good that I don't even notice them go down.

Damn it feels good to be rich! Who else is celebrating their new found elitism today?

response #11 by InsultComicDog:

      I am too and I never had a latte in my life!
But they did open up a new Dunkin Donuts a few blocks from here. So maybe it's time.

response #12 by unblock:

      one thing i learned from MY ivy-league education -

OP by BullGooseLoony:

      Phrases that should be FOREVER banned from GD:P
The life of a DUer has phases to be passed through. Inevitably, we all post an impassioned thought or thoughts that other DUers have seen hundreds of times before.

I'm getting sick of running through a lot of these thoughts over and over. So I'll offer up a few of them not on the proposal that they ACTUALLY be banned, but that anyone posting them should be given a good noogie.

#1- "That's it! I'm not voting for so-and-so in the GE."

If I had a dime for every time I saw that meaningless, worn-out, desperate claim.

#2- The words "Let's be clear" as used to introduce any old idea.

Oh, thanks for working that one out for me. Find another way to open your post.

#3- "Just watch! So-and-so's gaffe that's been on the news for a week (baby-eating, puppy-kicking, etc.) is a GOOD thing and will blowback/backlash on their opponent!" Also, the phrase "playing chess, not checkers."

Please shut up. No matter what you think, the world of politics is still a gray area and everybody is going to see things differently. Maybe the sticks have moved a little one way or the other, but ultimately what is being discussed is probably as transient as an episode of Maury Povich.

#4- "So-and-so's campaign is finished!"

No, it isn't, just like it hasn't been for months.



Those are just a few of my complaints.

What are you sick of seeing in GD: P?

While delivering a speech today, Senator Barack Obama paused, cleared his throat, and continued talking. Immediately thereafter, pundits from across the spectrum have reacted.

- Limbaugh: "Well folks, what have I been saying, Barack Hussein Obama is a latte drinking, limousine liberal, and this proves it without a doubt. Clearly, the throat clearing was meant as a shun to gun owners"

On Hardball, Chris Matthews asked his guests what they thought about the "throat clearing" incident.

- Buchanan: "Isn't it obvious Chris. He continues to support Reverend Wright."

- Katrina Vandenhuevel "He was just clearing his th........."

- Brooks: (interrupting Katrina) "You can try to defend his action Katrina, but rural America knows exactly what he meant. He doesn't support the troops and will surrender to our enemy the first chance he gets."

OP by Scriptor Ignotus:

      Why is Billy Joel so bitter?
Allentown

Well we're living here in Allentown
And they're closing all the factories down
Out in Bethlehem they're killing time
Filling out forms
Standing in line
Well our fathers fought the Second World War
Spent their weekends on the Jersey Shore
Met our mothers in the USO
Asked them to dance
Danced with them slow
And we're living here in Allentown

But the restlessness was handed down
And it's getting very hard to stay

Well we're waiting here in Allentown
For the Pennsylvania we never found
For the promises our teachers gave
If we worked hard
If we behaved
So the graduations hang on the wall
But they never really helped us at all
No they never taught us what was real
Iron and coke
And chromium steel
And we're waiting here in Allentown

But they've taken all the coal from the ground
And the union people crawled away

Every child had a pretty good shot
To get at least as far as their old man got
But something happened on the way to that place
They threw an American flag in our face

Well I'm living here in Allentown
And it's hard to keep a good man down
But I won't be getting up today

And it's getting very hard to stay
And we're living here in Allentown

The last one from the audience, delivered via AP chairman W. Dean Singleton, was related to Afghanistan, our troops to Iraq and the threat posed by, as Singleton put it, 'Obama bin Laden.'

Obama quickly corrected Singleton. 'That’s Osama bin Laden,' he said. The crowd laughed a bit. 'If I did that, I am so sorry,' Singleton replied.

Then Obama said, 'This is part of what I have been going through for the past months, which is why it is impressive that I am still standing here...'"

      TYPICAL bush - he's having Ratzinger (Pope Benedict) land at government/military base!

response #7 by Bucky:

      You gotta look at the big picture
Isn't that a violation of the separation of church and state to have him land at a purely government landing strip{?}

Don't be obtuse. He's a foreign head of state. Even if you think of the Pope as a religious & not as a political figure, there's nothing about separation that requires clergy to stay off of government property.

- and a MILITARY one at that!?

See, you gotta look at the big picture. The one thing that scares the Bushies the most is being held to account for all evil they've done in office over the last 8 years. The man at the center of the evil is, of course, Vice President Dick Cheney... who just so happens to be an exact physical duplicate of Pope Benedict.

The obvious plan here is to greet the Pope as he exits Vatican One, drug him, swap him out with Dick Cheney wearing his papally decorated night gown, and quietly slip Angler out of the country at the "end" of Benedict's "visit" to the United States. Not only does Cheney make a clean getaway, but now PNAC has taken over the Holy Catholic Church!

Meanwhile back in this country, PNAC is protected from prosecution because the government's chief witness has apparently gone insane and now suffers from the delusion that he's the pope with half his hair plucked out, not the Vice President. Forced to resign from office, no one notices the "new" Mr Cheney now speaks a slight German accent...

OP by MN Against Bush:

      After the success of the Compassion Forum CNN announces the Fire and Brimstone Forum
Dear Loyal CNN Viewers,

A couple days ago our network gave you the Compassion Forum so that we could provide you with information on the religious beliefs of our candidates. We made sure to ask them questions which were not one bit inappropriate such as "What is your favorite Bible story?", "Does God want you to be President?", and of course most importantly "Do you believe the Earth was created in six days?"

Because of the positive response we received from theocrats across America for our Compassion Forum we are today announcing a new forum that will please the religious fundamentalists even more, the Fire and Brimstone Forum. We have had enough talk about compassion, now it is time to engage in another favorite past time of those who love to mix religion and politics, we are going to talk about the people who need to burn in hell for all eternity.

We realize that for many of the values voters that we praised after the 2004 selection for helping to reselect Bush talking about compassion is not enough. We need to talk about all the horrible ways people will suffer Satan's wrath after we are done pretending to be compassionate towards them. And so we are going to call our candidates in front of the cameras and ask them deeply personal questions about their religious faith, so that we can be sure that our candidates are not going to have any sympathy for all the minority groups that the fundamentalist values voters wants to see burn in hell.

We are going to ask the questions that you have always wanted to hear our candidates asked. "When a person goes to hell where do you think Satan sticks that pitchfork of his?", "At what temperature do all those heathen children who were never baptized deserve to burn at once they get sent to hell?" and of course, "How are you going to start the rapture and help rid this country of its sinners once and for all?"

Yes, the Fire and Brimstone Forum will help us to ensure that our next President is not one of those Godless Americans who does not want to see all their heathen neighbors be killed off in the rapture. We will ensure that our next President believes that they are much more righteous than most of the rest of the people in the world, and that they deserve to be saved and lifted up into heaven while everyone else dies slow painful deaths at the hands of Satan's army.

So be sure to tune in on October 31 and watch the Fire and Brimstone Forum, so that you can see the great John Hagee endorsed rapture-ready Christian leader John McCain put that Muslim turned America-hating-Christian turned Satan-worshiper Barack Obama in his place. Only on the Christian Nationalist Network, CNN.

Sincerely,
The protectors of theocracy at CNN

OP by BigBearJohn:

      'We don't even know if Osama is still alive'
After numerous rounds of 'We don't even know if Osama is still alive,' Osama himself decided to send George Bush a letter in his own handwriting to let him know he was still in the game.

Bush opened the letter and it contained a single line of Coded message:

* 370H-SSV-0773H *

Bush was baffled, so he e-mailed it to Condoleezza Rice. Condi and her aides had not a clue either, so they sent it to the FBI.
No one could solve it at the FBI so it went to the CIA, then to NSA.

Eventually they asked Britain 's MI-6 for help. Within a minute MI-6 cabled the White House with this reply:

'Tell the President he's holding the message upside down.'



We are in trouble...
The population of this country is 300 million.
160 million are retired.
That leaves 140 million to do the work.
There are 85 million in school.
Which leaves 55 million to do the work.
Of this there are 40 million employed by the federal government.
Leaving 15 million to do the work.

2.8 million are in the armed forces preoccupied with killing Osama
Bin-Laden.

Which leaves 12.2 million to do the work.

Take from that total the 10.8 million people who work for state and city
Governments.

And that leaves 1.4 million to do the work.

At any given time there are 188,000 people in hospitals.

Leaving 1,212,000 to do the work.

Now, there are 1,211,998 people in prisons.

That leaves just two people to do the work.

On a thread by The Straight Story:

      Yellow Stickers Used To Curb Car Theft
"Police in Palm Bay have simplified Combat Auto Theft, a program that allows participants to place a yellow sticker on their back window to make it easier for police to spot cars that might be stolen.

The stickers, placed on the left side of the rear window, direct officers to pull over cars being driven between 1 and 5 a.m., officer Ron Lugo told Local 6 News partner Florida Today. Lugo is with the Neighborhood Policing Unit, which includes six officers and a sergeant..."

      BBC: Masturbation 'cuts cancer risk'
"Men could reduce their risk of developing prostate cancer through regular masturbation, researchers suggest.
They say cancer-causing chemicals could build up in the prostate if men do not ejaculate regularly.

And they say sexual intercourse may not have the same protective effect because of the possibility of contracting a sexually transmitted infection, which could increase men's cancer risk..."

OP by PeterU:

      Howard Jones supporters should be incensed over the debate
I mean, you guys have told us over and over again Rick Astley can't handle pressure. That every time it's applied to him in a debate, he buckles faster than a cheap lawn chair. So it's not a surprise that Howard Jones supporters are gleeful over the hard questions Rick Astley received in the debate. However, this is going counter to what they want, because now the media is focused not on the performances of either Howard Jones or Rick Astley, but the obvious one-sidedness and substance lacking questions. The outrage over the debate is actually a bigger story than the debate itself, locally and nationally. The problem here is that no matter who you think won, the narrative has been set and it's a narrative that does not favor Howard Jones.

Howard Jones supporters may enjoy watching Rick Astley debate gotcha politics, but the American people don't. They want to hear who is going to fix the economy, not why someone doesn't wear a flag pin. They want to hear about affordable healthcare, not whether Rick Astley believes his reverend is patriotic. They want to know how the president will fix Iraq and bring our troops home, not for Rick Astley to clarify and defend his comments on working-class voters for the umpteenth time. Because of this, if Howard Jones supporters really believe Rick Astley can't debate the real issues when pressed like he was on trivial problems, then they really should be angry over the lack of substance. Even though I don't agree it would happen, had Rick Astley stammered and stumbled over topics like Iraq, healthcare and policy, that would be the narrative today, not how ABC botched what very well could be the last debate between these two. And because of that, Howard Jones doesn't get a knockout and certainly doesn't halt Rick Astley's momentum. If anything, this may actually now help Rick Astley, because it appears Americans and voters in Pennsylvania are not accepting divisive and inconsequential politics.

OP by Johonny:

      Proof that Ben Stein is a conspiracy!
The creationists win. I now understand completely their message. Yes the natural world does not exist outside of my beliefs. My mere thought of mind can change the world to what I believe should happen rather than what does. From this I concluded Ben Stein does not exist. Sure he may appear on TV, in movies, and write bad stock advice in the editorial section of the newspaper, but I believe these false images of Ben Stein have been planted by God to test me (and apparently stock traders). And since they’re my beliefs, the fact that they are directly contradicted by fact makes them almost certainly to be fact instead of a belief. You can point to a printed article from Ben Stein and then a few weeks later another articles and say see Ben Stein must exist and continue to exist because he keeps writing. But I can not be fooled! Where you see evidence of existence I see gaps in between written evidence where no evidence of Ben Stein’s existence exists. So for every one piece of Ben Stein existence evidence you produce I see two new gaps of non-existence and two is bigger than one. So Ben Stein does not exist. You may present baby photo’s, high school year books and Nixon speeches as evidence of Ben Stein’s existence, but I tell you there is no place on Earth where all of the Ben Stein historical record can be witnessed and thus you can discount it all! That baby photo could just be a water mark left by Noah’s great flood. Ben Stein does not appear once in my bible! I would think if God wanted me to believe in Ben Stein he would have left a margin note somewhere in there (hopefully real close to the front because once you hit Leviticus it’s Zzzzzzzzzzzzzzz time). I conclude Ben Stein is just a conspiracy by “Big Science” design to get me to waste my precious time on Earth on the entertainment industry when I could be at home contemplating reading the bible while I do something more productive.
Ben Stein does not exist QED

"The lush green canopy covering the capitol city is the reason Sacramento is known as the City of Trees.

But all those trees and plant also play a major role in the metropolitan area's ranking for having the 12th dirtiest air in the nation.

'Trees emit what's called biogenic volatile organic compounds,' said Charles Anderson of the Sacramento Metropolitan Air Quality Management District. He explained that's a fancy name for hydrocarbons, a key component of smog..."

They are always blocking my view and interfering with my TV reception. Those leaves that fall off of them in the autumn are soooo annoying.

      NBA approves Sonics move to Oklahoma City
"NBA owners have approved the Seattle SuperSonics’ move to Oklahoma City for the 2008-09 season, pending the resolution of litigation between the team and the city of Seattle.

The Sonics could begin playing in owner Clay Bennett’s hometown as early as next season if they can get out of the remaining two years of their lease at Key Arena.

Seattle has filed suit trying to force the Sonics to remain in the city until the lease expires in 2010, while Bennett wants to buy out the remainder. The city already has rejected Bennett’s $26 million to settle the lease dispute. A trial is set to begin in federal court June 16..."

response #5 by BlueDogDemocratNH:

For her encore...
She played some AC/DC on the jukebox and bellowed along to "Hell's Bells", got in a fight with a guy who bumped up against her, threw up in the bathroom, peed in the alley behind the bar, and was taken into protective custody by the Hammond police.


and then i saw the threads about prostate cancer! (...i never thought something relating to that could be so funny)

46. No one person should be allowed to get five (5) DUzy in one week, unless it's
me.

However, I guess I have to do this:
Congratulations.
Congratulations.
Congratulations.
Congratulations
Congratulations.

And never darken my doorstep again... or at least not till next week's DUzys come out.

bilateral carpal tunnel wrist splints, white TED hose to prevent clots from forming in the legs,
heating pads velcro-d onto each hip to counter arthritic pains due to remaining sedentary for long periods
of time, and - bien sur! - black mesh stockings and stiletto heels.

Can't think of anything else that would turn on a real DUer more.

It's a DUzy in the DUzies, 'round that friction-fingered shpiel.

88. The windmills of your mind are powerful indeed.
I want this to hit 50, who can we PM? We only need two. The number 48 looks weird and troublesome to me.

89. Maybe you can make an emergency announcement in GD-P?
Would any of the combatants there be willing to take a humor break in GD?

I'd go do it myself, but I find that forum weird and troublesome.

90. I don't want to be accused of being a "Obamababy Whoop-Dee-Doo Wright-Wing Whiner".
It will make me cry and go potty all over myself.

104. Congrats!
Keep in mind, however, that now you carry an extra burden -- the burden to be funny. You can't just post any old thing anymore, you have to think about what the competition is doing.

Is DUer "so-and-so" being funny more times this week than *I* am? The pressure is a killer, let me tell you...
