___ Subbing for Biggirl, IMissPresidentReagan, rightwingintelligentsia ___

[Biggirl]

THANK-YOU in SHOUT for your help to PING this thread for today. :)=^..^=

Looks like Rush hit the ground running.

[Biggirl]

Lurch sure looks like Senator Kerry.

[Carriage Hill]

It’s a LARGE list, un-alphabetized, and I went thru it; you weren’t there. I’m going to (try to) alphabetize it in MS-Word, and return it, so it’s easier to edit. You’re now on it.
Crap, Word 2007 won’t sort the list; too many semi-colons...

Off Topic:
I wasn’t paying attention to the news till it was too late. Something was mentioned about having to get a doctor’s prescription to buy cigarettes. Is this for real? Is some crazy butt politician trying to pass this?

Has anyone heard anything about this?

[Clint N. Suhks]

Anyone else hearing the ad for Firehouse Subs?

Gotta love the one called the “New York Steamer”. How appropriate.

[rightwingintelligentsia]

It’s for Iceland, not here. Yet.

[Girlene]

I know. What was she protesting about? I didn’t hear what she said. Anyone?

[PennsylvaniaMom]

$193 million—but he is NOT part of the 1 percent. He is a noble Democrat. Yada yada. But Romney was evil.

Have any of the fellow club members “thanked” Kerry for his service in today’s love fest?

[Biggirl]

Yep, just heard it.

Was able to get home quickly, friends of mine spotted me as I was waiting for the bus in the freezing cold a very short time after the funeral service to get me home, they saw me and picked me up. The northeast/midwest in the middle of a cold wave.

"The morning shows were full of the “Hilary circle fest”
What was the circumference of this circle? It had to be huge.yulp...*Dyson sphere (HUGH 8-)...

What is a *Dyson Sphere?
The Dyson sphere (or Dyson shell) was originally proposed in 1959 by the astronomer Freeman Dyson in "Search for Artificial Stellar Sources of Infrared Radiation" in Science as a way for an advanced civilisation to utilise all of the energy radiated by their sun. It is an artificial sphere the size of an planetary orbit. The sphere would consist of a shell of solar collectors or habitats around the star, so that all (or at least a significant amount) energy will hit a receiving surface where it can be used. This would create a huge living space and gather enormous amounts of energy.

A Dyson sphere in the solar system, with a radius of one AU would have a surface area of at least 2.72e17 km^2, around 600 million times the surface area of the Earth. The sun has a energy output of around 4e26 W, of which most would be available to do useful work.

The original proposal simply assumed there would be enough solar collectors around the star to absorb the starlight, not that they would form a continuous shell. Rather, the shell would consist of independently orbiting structures, around a million kilometres thick and containing more than 1e5 objects. But various science fiction authors seem to have misinterpreted the concept to mean a solid shell enclosing the star, usually having an inhabitable surface on the inside, and this idea was so compelling that it has been the main use of the term in science fiction. The earliest appearance of this version seems to be Robert Silverberg's novel Across a Billion Years.

He didn’t miss a beat; smoking today.

[Biggirl]

Would not surprise me.

[Biggirl]

Hearing it now.

[who knows what evil?]

War protestor tired of her friends being killed in the Middle East...

I was at the Post Office over lunch, and they were offering this tacky thing for sale for $9.99.



USPS is offering an official commemorative souvenir cover marking the inauguration of President Barack Obama and Vice President Joe Biden.

The Inauguration Day Official Commemorative Souvenir Cover is available for $9.95 and can be ordered at usps.com/stamps or by dialing 800-STAMP-24 and referencing item #788721.

The collectible envelope includes:

Color portraits of President Obama and Vice President Biden.
A White House illustration and typography printed in gold.
A randomly-selected, affixed Four Flags Forever stamp.
The official Inauguration Day color postmark incorporating the presidential seal.
A clear protective sleeve for keepsake preservation.


I'm still trying to figure out what this is. Cover for what?

[Biggirl]

He gives hints.

[CSM]

Holy cow! I was interrupted and am only catching the smoking issue at the tail end! What article is he discussing?

[Carriage Hill]

Haven’t heard that; I’m a 54yr smoker... Rush is talking about it NOW!
