So I’m at an observance of Constitution Day last week and in a contest, testing our knowledge of the constitution. Now, I’m gonna win and I’m one question away. The moderator asks: “Besides Constitution Day, what other day is celebrated concurrently? “. “My Birthday!” I yelled. “Wrong Answer” replied the Mod. “You call my Mom on Wednesday and tell her that!” I protested. The Mod says “Anyone know the answer?”. So I’m looking around and . . . Nothing. No one answered. I turned to the gal behind me and whispered “Citizenship Day” and she yelled out the same. Afterward,...

Obama administration moved Thursday to restrict prescriptions of the most commonly used narcotic painkillers in the U.S. in an attempt to curb widespread abuse.

Cue up the voice of Joe Pesci: "Uh K, Uh K, Uh K!!! This sohhh funny and one troo lee he larry us exchange between Amazon and a customer".

Interesting observation about happy people live. Me? I pretty much could care less what most people say about me. It's a Great Life if you Don't Weaken. Don't Take Life so Seriously, No is Getting Out of This Thing Alive. To be sure, there are serious moments in the course kf a day but, so what? Deal with it and be greatful for the rest of the day and find gratitude for the smallest of things. Some people see rain and go "Ugh! ". I see rain and imagine greener pastures, flower and if it's winter I definitely think "Rain?...

I come into the living room to take the dogs for a walk and the TV is on NBC. All of a sudden Cynthia McFadden comes on the screen and announces "We are awaiting a speech from President Obama, who will speak from a working vacation, at Martha's Vineyard". And I spit out some coffee I had just taken. So I turn the channel to ABC and listen to his speech. Fine speech. Appropriate words and then Stephanopoulos ascribes all kinds of emotion to the speech with excellent superlatives indicating a range of emotions. I don't know but, the whole...

This morning, the alarms in my house went off. I immediately armed myself and went in search of the cause or person. After thinking about it I think one fire alarm went off and then each and every alarm started as well, I believe, the actuall alarm system to the house. Freaking loud as hell and brought me out of bed, with me grabbing a weapon and charging through the first floor, then running upstairs to ascertain if we had just been broken into, with a thought running through my mind that maybe there was a fire. I didn't know....

So, I recorded this program "The Company You Keep" A former Weather Underground craptivist goes on the run after a journalist uncovers his real identity. So! My question: I have the option of watching: 40 something (I think it's hilarious, no matter I've seen it 10+ times) Jubal - A western, 1956, starring Glenn Ford. The Big Red One - Awesome WWII film with Lee Marvin. Luv this one too. Or, bonus movie.... Get Carter w/ Stallone and finally atman Begins w/ Christian Bale. So, which should I watch? I recorded the Undergroung thingy a month ago and keep finding...

Having ream trouble supporting an alcoholic Friend. He's been in Hollywood business for years and literally screwed up his life. He's spent most of the last twenty years in jail for his stupid behavior. Likes to promise people a good time, dinner and drinks but, consistently leaves people hanging with the check. If he's not doing that, then he's walking into restaurants, bars and hotels, then getting busted for defrauding an inn keeper. There are drunks, lousy drunks and terrible drunks. Of course, he has to be a terrible drunk. Alters his mind and he gets verbally combative, aggressive or...

"Why watch something has your number and lists your failures?" Typical Gutfield. Ascerbic, On Point, Cuts Like a Knife and He Larry Us! First minute is a laugh riot, with the remainder funny as comments given by cast.

THIS AMAZING VIDEO from the Gaza-based Watania news agency shows Israel’s controversial ‘knock on the roof’ air-strike warning in action. The video demonstrates how a small missile strikes the house across the road from where the footage was captured. This is a warning that the house has been targeted for an air-strike. About 15 minutes later the house is completely destroyed by two separate bombs from what the agency says was two F16 fighter planes. Most of this fifteen minute period is edited out of the video. Rubble and debris are thrown into the air but when the dust clears...

I normally can't stand a sport where kicking a ball around results in a zero score and people cheer about that lame-oh Kurr-Rapp. However, Brazil sucks and is being trounced right now 7-1. I think Germany felt sorry and just allowed a score as a sign of sportsmanship. Normally (Hah!) I'd never watch woccer/soccer but, I just had a giant plate of ribs and I like seeing these chumps get trounced. Stoopit ball. Stoopit net. Stoopit country. Stoopit game.... stoopitest

That's just stoopit. Everyone knows we only do that on Wednesdays

<p>You punks read this website and I have a message for you and Class Ass Parliamentarian: . "I've heard your twitiot is considering a write in campaign.</p> <p>Don't.</p> <p>It is a colossal waste of time.</p> <p>It's clear he is only interested in himself. As such, you should encourage hime to take a job on "K", where he can further line his pockets."</p>

Now that Cantor, a Turncoat, has been sent packing, we need to finish the criminal conspiracy between him, Dick Boehner and Witch McConnell. Send Money, take a trip to do walks and knocks in opposition, get the word out to friends and enemies. They must be defeated. The Republic cannot take any more of their shenanigans.

Walking through Target and picked up the movie "Lone Survivor". Saw this twice at the theater and both times cried, right along with every other man. A moving story about true brothers, who would not leave each other's side, rallied their collective strength and held each other as men, doing their level best to help the guy on the right and the guy on the left. Sadly, only one man made it out, through shear determination and an indomitable spirit. But, not before more good men went to rescue them, knowing they were not fully armed, not fully covered in...

Could someone help me understand the issues of Bunny. Sorry, been sick all week and haven't really been doing more than sleep all I can. What are the issues regarding Issues regarding graze fees, when were they instituted, why is Bundy saying he'll pay NV but, not ELM. What's this racism thing I had to hear about ad-naseum yesterday. Just bumper sticker details would be fine along with a few links. I don't need Beck crap or anyone else like him. Just need a bottom line rejoinder so I can Ed Joo Muh Kate my friends on the side of...

So I'm watching this whole "Firefox" uninstall effort going on, with some amusement. Y'all should understand that Google and Firefox have ways of winning even if you uninstall Firefox. I'll cover that in the body of my thread below

They are proposing to use exactly the same track for these hazardous cars. Totally unacceptable,” said Berkeley Vice Mayor Linda Maio.The hazardous cars Maio is talking about could carry a highly explosive crude oil fracked from the Bakken region of North Dakota. It is as flammable as gasoline: as we saw when a 100-car train carrying the fuel derailed in Quebec last summer.

Whoopsie!!!! Decent double tremor. Specially when you are on the second floor. Probably a lame attempt to scare me. I'm guessing 3.1 Going back to sleep.
