[MassLiberal]

:bounce:

[qnr]

1. Ok, I looked all over the place, and I don't see a nick named "me" anywhere!

So, I guess my question is, where did you hide me?

[MassLiberal]

2. hey! over here!

:hi:

[qnr]

10. Oh! There me goes! n/t

[Shine]

3. Congrats!

what was the last movie you saw in a theater? :shrug:

[MassLiberal]

4. "Notes on a Scandal"

Judi Dench was mindblowingly great. It's an intense movie.

How about you?

[Shine]

9. Oh, I haven't seen that one yet. I love Judi Dench.

We saw "The Number 23" with Jim Carrey. It wasn't that great, imo, but MrShine liked it a lot.

Have you been at DU long?

[MassLiberal]

12. I joined DU during the run-up to the 2004 election

as I'm sure a lot of us did. DU was a place of solace for a looong time afterward, in those painful, outraged weeks and months after Bush stole the election for the second time. What am I saying...we're still in that period!

[MassLiberal]

5. helloooooooo

Is anybody home? :shrug:

[SpudStateDem]

6. What The Heck...

... is the "Pompatus of Love"?

[MassLiberal]

13. ya got me!

:shrug:

[Dangerously Amused]

7. Were they concrete, or the temporary plastic ones?

How badly did you damage the vehicle?


Was anybody hurt?

[MassLiberal]

14. neither--they were the ceramic ones!

I made a big mess. :eyes:

[sammythecat]

8. I just hit 500 today too!

Congrats.

It's taken me 5 or 6 years.

[MassLiberal]

15. right back atcha!

Slap me five! :yourock:

[reyd reid reed]

11. That's okay...don't sweat it

after all, ain't nothing that a good body shop can't fix.

:P

Congratulations!!!


:bounce::bounce::bounce:

[MassLiberal]

16. thanks!

I think it's gonna be okay. B-)

[taterguy]

17. What musician do you wish more people knew about?

Does that question make sense? I've had a few beers.

[MassLiberal]

19. an excellent question, beer or no beer

The Be Good Tanyas: http://www.begoodtanyas.com/

There are more, I'm sure, but they just popped into my head first. Watch the video for "The Littlest Birds."
:loveya:

[taterguy]

23. That was a much better answer than I expected

I watched the video and thought it was very cool. I just hope my local record stores have their CDs in stock. I'll also keep an eye on their tour dates.

[MassLiberal]

26. their first CD, "Blue Horse," is wonderful

It has "The Littlest Birds" on it. I also have their second CD, "Chinatown," which is good but not quite as good. Their harmonies are so beautiful.

[taterguy]

41. Thanks for the tip

Most of the music I like I hear about via word-of-mouth and they seem like a most excellant band

[MassLiberal]

43. you're welcome!

:hi:

[bigwillq]

18. Congrats on 500 posts!

What is your favorite fast food eatery?

[MassLiberal]

20. hmm...don't do much fast food...

but I like McDonalds' Oriental chicken salad. Is that boring or what? Oh wait, does Starbucks coffee count? I love Starbucks.:donut:

[bigwillq]

21. It counts!

:)

What is your favorite brand of cereal?

[MassLiberal]

22. oh my goodness, such personal questions!

The Lounge is really living up to its reputation this evening! :blush:

Favorite brand of cereal...favorite brand of cereal...I'd have to say Kashi Go Lean Crunch, although I am also a huge fan of good old fashioned oatmeal (unsweetened) and shredded wheat as well.

And you?

[bigwillq]

24. I don't eat cereal

I don't really like it.

What is your favorite brand of clothing?

[MassLiberal]

28. no cereal, eh?

Well, I don't really have a favorite brand of clothing. I wear a lot of my sister's hand-me-downs--she has really good taste and gets a lot of bargains that she doesn't really need/want, so I am the lucky beneficiary! So I guess my favorite brand is My Sister's Castoffs.:D

[bigwillq]

32. Fave actor?

:shrug:

[MassLiberal]

33. George Clooney

As for old-time actors (my favorite kind), Gregory Peck (especially as Atticus Finch) and Jimmy Stewart.

[bigwillq]

34. Actress?

:shrug:

[MassLiberal]

36. Judi Dench

especially after seeing her in "Notes on a Scandal." Also Meryl Streep.

Phew, you're killin' me here!

How's about your faves?

[bigwillq]

38. Hey, this is your thread....

you told me to ask you anything. I am just following directions.

:P

[MassLiberal]

39. ok, sorry I blew up

Proceed at will. ;)

[bigwillq]

40. Fave vegetable?

:shrug:

[MassLiberal]

42. ummm...squash

Butternut.

[bigwillq]

44. Fave Holiday?

:shrug:

[MassLiberal]

45. Thanksgiving

It's cozy. :-)

[bigwillq]

48. Turkey or Chicken?

:shrug:

[MassLiberal]

50. well...

If it's Thanksgiving, definitely turkey. Most of the rest of the time, however, chicken.

[bigwillq]

51. I didn't mean on T-Day

just in general.

[MassLiberal]

56. I can't answer that

It is definitely a time-specific decision.

[Esra Star]

25. What's the deal with no profile? Ted is that you?

[MassLiberal]

29. are you talkin' to ME?

If so, I am not Ted.

[Esra Star]

37. Yes

[Omphaloskepsis]

27. Do you like math?

If you give the wrong answer I will try to put myself on ignore.

[MassLiberal]

30. I hate math.

I don't even like the word "math."

[hellbound-liberal]

31. Here's my question: Why is your profile disabled?

[MassLiberal]

35. is it disabled?

I just thought I never filled it out. I'm a little shy. :)

[hellbound-liberal]

46. It says "no such user profile"

What part of Massachusetts are you from? I'm originally from CT but I now live in Virginia. I really miss New England!

[MassLiberal]

49. that's odd about my profile...

I grew up in western Mass., lived for five years in Virginia (Charlottesville), and now live in the Greater New Haven area. Where in Va. are you? I loved it there.

[hellbound-liberal]

65. Mechanicsville, just north of Richmond. My wife was born here

It's a nice area but the crowds are moving in and I am afraid it will lose it's small town appeal. We've been to Monticello twice and Walton's Mountain in Schuyler once. We really like that part of the state. May have a summer home there, or New England, someday.

[MassLiberal]

67. the same thing is happening in Charlottesville

It's gotten very built up since I lived there 20 years ago. It's still the same in some wonderful ways, though. And the Blue Ridge can't be beat.

[MassLiberal]

47. I don't know why my profile is disabled

I just checked into it, updated my profile, clicked "update," and when I click on my profile icon it says it's disabled. I didn't disable it on purpose. Can anyone help? :shrug:

[MassLiberal]

53. okay, I fixed it

Duh. :dunce: Sorry!

[bigwillq]

52. Soup or salad?

:shrug:

[MassLiberal]

54. LOL!

:think:

[bigwillq]

55. Are you laughing at me?

:P


Bill or Hillary?

[MassLiberal]

57. ROFL!

Chelsea.

[bigwillq]

58. Good pick!

We share the same B-day.



Fred or Barney?

[MassLiberal]

60. we share the same b'day?

Neither. :P

[bigwillq]

61. No, Chelsea and I do.

Feb. 27

[MassLiberal]

63. happy belated birthday!

Did you and Chels celebrate together?

[bigwillq]

66. Thank you.

No, she stood me up. :( :P

[MassLiberal]

68. didn't her parents teach her any manners?

Sheesh.

[bigwillq]

76. I guess not!

:P

:)



Cat or dog?

[MassLiberal]

78. Bunnies

But I also have two dogs. No cats yet. (Yet.)

[bigwillq]

80. What kind of dogs?

:shrug:

[MassLiberal]

82. ooooh, my babies...

Lily the yellow Lab and Sparkle the Nova Scotia Duck Tolling Retriever

[bigwillq]

85. Aww....how cute.

:)

[MassLiberal]

88. aren't you even going to ask me

about Nova Scotia Duck Tolling Retrievers? Usually when I tell people what kind of dog Sparkle is, they go, "A what?"

[bigwillq]

91. No, I don't care

:P

I am at work and just saw the pic...didn't even see what you wrote.

I have to read fast sometimes.

[MassLiberal]

92. you don't care about my puppies?

:cry:

Just kidding...do you have a late night at work?

[bigwillq]

93. I always work second shift

And I am now out the door...well almost.

See ya. Good chatting with ya.

:hi:

[Guava Jelly]

59. What is your favorite local seafood restaurant?

:)

[MassLiberal]

62. hmmm...

I don't really have a favorite local seafood restaurant, but my favorite local restaurant, where I have actually eaten fish, is Zinc.

[Guava Jelly]

64. I love seafood

Thats why i moved to Missouri..Hey????? Wait!!! I'm landlocked :mad:

[Critters2]

69. Hot enough for ya? nt

[MassLiberal]

72. actually, no

It's in the single digits here! Brrr!

[graywarrior]

70. LIEberman?

:rofl:

[MassLiberal]

73. don't get me started

:mad:

[graywarrior]

75. How do you stand it?

You must see him on tv more than we do...maybe.

[MassLiberal]

77. I don't really watch TV

But I hear that voice on the radio often enough. Mr. MassLiberal passed him on the street in New Haven one day, not so long ago. He (LIEberman, not Mr. MassLiberal) makes my skin crawl.

[graywarrior]

79. I have a repulsive chemical reaction when I see him.

He's :puke: material.

[MassLiberal]

83. I'm with ya on that one.

:eyes:

[Rhythm]

71. How did you find this place?

:hi:

[MassLiberal]

74. I can't remember, embarrassingly enough!

I think I read about it on another site, like maybe Truthout. It was 2004, and I was starved for information and an outlet for my outrage.

[Rhythm]

81. that's o.k.... i don't rememebr either

i think someone at TotalFark linked the "Top Ten" list, so i started coming here for news updates...
I didn't create a profile or anything until last year, and even then i didn't post much until recently.

[MassLiberal]

84. I have made most of my posts here in the past couple of months

and didn't even realize until tonight that I had disabled my profile! Oops. :blush:

[Left Is Write]

86. How do you feel about speeding dangerously toward the 700 Club?

:D

[MassLiberal]

87. Ouch!

Just had a flashback to that TV show--we used to watch it for entertainment purposes when we were kids. :scared:

[Left Is Write]

89. Don't worry. When you get to the 700 Club...

we'll help you get the hundred posts you'll need to scurry out of it. :)

[MassLiberal]

90. phew!

That's a relief. Wouldn't want to be associated with Jim and Tammy Faye so much. :yoiks:

[Rhythm]

94. Jim and Tammy Faye were PTL (Pass the Loot) club...

Pat Robertson is 700 (lies per minute) Club...

[sniffa]

95. 2 questions: who's your favorite DUer

and why am i?
