I think that Watson, Waters, and Queen Sheila should be named ambassadors to Mars (and dispatched immediately)...since we already have the flag planted there anyway.

Yes, local radio has been playing the Watson soundbites all morning. Our resident commies have dropped ALL pretense.

Insipience,
did Bara-Kon,
A statish para-noid decree,
Where Alg(ore), the sucker’d rube it ran
In coffers measureless to man...

same to you! it’s 65 degrees here which i LOVE! it is such a thrill to feel coolness instead of the heat and humidity of the past few weeks! They were predicting a high of 72 today and i couldn’t imagine that after the hot humid weekdend!

I had the heater on in the car this morning. It got into the 40s last night. Tonight should be the same.

Our clothes washer started acting up Saturday night, so we ordered a new washer and dryer. Come Sunday, the price for each was about $50 higher.

i was relieved beyond measure that deadted's name was not breathed even once at Mass at St James yesterday. i am SURE there are plenty of churches where it was invoked, in the prayers of the faithful. i am anxious to see Fr. DeCelles sermon from Sunday. Xshub gets them in email because he is widely followed. i imagine that he WAS mentioned there at St Mary's but not in a GOOD way. i bet he was used as a teaching point.

Like with my motorcar, I fear I’ll be ahead of the curve on this one, too.

I bought my new Kia a few months before the clunker trade in. I figure about the same for my washer.

On the other hand, I don’t know if my new one would qualify anyway. It’s not one of those $800 super efficient front-loading things.

Next year there won’t be a $300 washing machine available. Good time to buy stock in a laundromat.

we had a HECK of a time finding a top loading washer. no way i wanted a front loader and those pedestal things are just stupid-looking to me. we were sucked into a more expensive model bc that was available for delivery the following day. anything cheaper would have required a week’s wait for it to be ordered.

so mother Rose wanted the kennedy compound to become a monastery? but ted put a stop to that and now it is to be a learning center to expound on ted...something like a presidential library? she must be rolling in her grave at this.

Pope B XVI showed some class and restraint not to comment about this sinner.

I will add my STOP IT! to Grimmy for that earworm from hell-

Is it his total insipience
Making Obama’s numbers tank
Or is it just the same things
That happened when Carter sank?

Dabbling his hands in everything
As the malaise kept on growing-
And every time he screwed up
His ignorance started showing

Jimmuh was only voted one term
Of his communist-worship we tired
Obama’s a clueless Marxist too
Who needs to be told “you’re fired”
