Do the KOlbermann Ladies meet here every night !!??!!

[Catchawave]

I'm so sorry I've missed the meetings! Should we start a DU group for Countdown Keith?

[crispini]

1. Yep, this is the place!

Do you really think we need a group for one thread a day? I guess we could, no-one's ever suggested it before!

[seito]

2. I like it here,until they kick us out. :(

The floatie heart backlash cometh.

[loritooker]

13. BOOOO!

[seito]

17. Didn't you see this guy

He lodged an official complaint against the profuse use of the :loveya: in the ever-so-serious tin foil hat forum.

[Nothing Without Hope]

21. FOTFLMAO!!!! You are a cruuuuuuuuel person!!! n/t

[bunny planet]

22. LMAO Seito

[loritooker]

25. Oh, yeah! The BOOO was for him!! Not you : )

[johnaries]

27. I hope none of you think I complained....

I wanted to start a separate non-floaty hearts thread, but I would never want to rid you ladies of your floaty hearts threads. In fact, they always give me the chuckles.... it just takes a while to get through them all!

Did someone really complain to the mods?

[Nothing Without Hope]

34. No, no, no! Bless your heart (I'm from Texas so I say stuff like that)!

You were really sweet about it and even gave us some floaty hearts, as I recall. It's all in good fun, but I'm sorry if our joke here at your expense made you uncomfortable. Of course we didn't complain, we made jokes about it then and we're still doing it, as you can see. And, from your great reaction the other time, I'm betting you get a kick out of Seito's Scrooge, too. You have to admit, it's awfully funny!

Please don't worry about it. Pull up a chair and join the party, or visit from time to time if you start another KO thread.
:toast:

(But we'll still tease you about the ambiance if you do!)
:evilgrin:

Most unfortunately, I have to leave now and will miss the Brigade thread tonight. But see you another time!

[Patsy Stone]

45. Not you...

We KNOW who it was, and they will be dealt with accordingly. We will smother them with :loveya: :loveya: :loveya: :loveya:

Welcome back!

Drink?

[Sydnie]

19. We have to have something to look forward to right?

I think we all day dream about something like this happening, right?




Then we just have to post some

[DemReadingDU]

3. we blog KO's countdown, & discuss election topics

throughout the hour.

oops, have to add floaty hearts

:loveya:

[crispini]

4. And drool, and put floaty hearts all over the thread,

and make bad jokes. You're leaving out all the IMPORTANT stuff here. :silly:

[bunny planet]

5. I beg to differ, my jokes are stellar

:hi:

[Pithy Cherub]

7. You forgot the significance of couture fashion

as debuted by KO... :)

[crispini]

10. Ah yes, the Great Tie Debates.

A nightly feature on the thread. :D

[helderheid]

6. Lurking lady loving KO!

:loveya:

[noonriser]

8. I popped in last night. Well worth the visit! eom

[Nothing Without Hope]

9. I don't think we need a group for this... we're an unofficial one already!

The Olbermann Estrogen Brigade, host to anyone who admires his journalism and has a high tolerance for the floaty hearts that we issue strictly on an as-earned basis. That includes some of the braver and smarter of the DU men, whom we are delighted to welcome on account of their fine taste and valuable opinions. A sense of humor is essential.
:7 :hi: :hippie: ;-) :toast: :P

(Rumor has it than an alternative non-floaty-heart KO thread sometimes appears as well, but we know which group has more ambiance.)

[Clark2008]

14. Better ambiance and better bathrooms!

:hi:

And, apparently, better poetry! :silly:

[Nothing Without Hope]

24. One person's poetry is another person's perfect KO tie

...or something.

Hi Clark2008! I regret to say I will be away from my computer for the entire Brigade thread tonight. Bummer!
:nopity:

BTW, I supported Clark for 2004, too.
:toast:

[greenmutha]

15. Here's to the Estrogen Brigade!

:toast:

I've missed y'all horribly since we got a satellite dish a couple of weeks ago. I am far away from the computer during Countdown now, with my eyes glued to the big screen.

(I do often imagine the beginning of the thread though, especially if he's wearing a dark suit with a light colored shirt!) LOL

[bunny planet]

31. Please, I've been running up and down the stairs from basement (computer)

to attic (television) to post during commercials. How silly is that.
But oy, I'm in such good shape now.

[greenmutha]

44. LOL... wish it was that easy for me! I have an entirely separate building

I'd be running back and forth to.

My computer is in my business shop - at the back of our property - and the TV is in the house - at the front of our property.

Guess I'll hafta get my floaty hearts in now! :loveya:

[bunny planet]

you'll have buns of steel honey.......... just do it.

[Patsy Stone]

53. "We're not a gang...We're a club!" :) n/t

[loritooker]

11. I like reading this thread even more than KO! You gals are the greatest!

[bear425]

12. You called? And ladies, I am demanding he wear the pink tie tonight!

Ok, not demanding. Just asking pretty please, ok Keith? :loveya:

[Miami Liberal]

33. I'm predicting a striped tie

and a dark suit. Yummy, a dark suit. The show's not even on and I'm already drooling.

:loveya: :loveya: :loveya: ;-)

[bear425]

37. Striped yes, but what color? That is the question.

And he definitely knows he looks best in the dark suits. Yummy with a pink tie. :loveya:

[Miami Liberal]

38. I don't remember him ever wearing a pink tie

are you sure?

:loveya:

[bear425]

42. Well, the other night - I think it was Friday? It looked kinda pinkish.

It was definitely not red, at least on my teevee. And I just have a thing for men in pink ties - remember John Kerry - he wore one often. I'll settle for the lavender, though. lol :loveya:

[Miami Liberal]

47. Lavender is always a good choice

;-)

:loveya:

[Patsy Stone]

48. Has he ever worn a pink tie?

Honestly, it's hard to move from the face. :)

[Greylyn58]

16. I didn't know there

was a group for Keith.

Do ya'll meet every night? I've been a fan of Keith's for years. Would love to talk to others that love KO.



:loveya: :loveya: :loveya: Keith O!

[merh]

18. You definitely belong on this thread - you have mastered the

floating hearts without any coaching. :loveya: :loveya: :loveya: KO

[Shopaholic]

20. Yes, we meet every night here and blog about KO

And I'd like to see him wear the Blue Shirt With the Gold/Bronze colored tie tonight. Just saying. . . I'm surprised they haven't run our butts out of this forum yet and moved us to media or television. The mods are probably scared of us though (all that Estrogen and all).:evilgrin: We are a talented and if I must say so myself, a good-looking group--and KO, if you see this-I swear we're harmless.:loveya: And on edit: a few more intelligent men join us every night too (I think they're hoping to catch any KO overflow).

[Clark2008]

23. And I contend he looks good in just about anything

THE ANTI-PAJAMAS!! :P

We are a good-looking group.

I know Patsy's taken, but I think most of us are single, n'cest pas?

[loritooker]

26. But especially good in dark blue I think; probably has a lot of Virgo.

[Clark2008]

28. His birthday is Jan. 27

That would be Aquarius, correct?

But, aquarius comes from aqua, which is water, which, until Bush came along, was mostly blue!

;)

[loritooker]

30. Yes. Aquarian blue!

[Shopaholic]

32. Aquarius Sun, Virgo Moon

Amateur Astrologist here. I've done his chart (yes, I was bored). His Ascendent, btw, is in Taurus. Guess we know why now he won't let go of the Election Fraud story!

[loritooker]

35. Thanks! I knew there had to be some Virgo in there ; )

[bunny planet]

51. I'm a Virgo.

[Shopaholic]

71. Me too.

So we're the perfect ones here.:eyes:

[bunny planet]

75. Yes, aren't we special. This is why I'm so picky about the ties btw.

Mine's August 29th, and you?

[Shopaholic]

78. September 13th--

and no, it wasn't a Friday the 13th, it was a Sunday. But we were getting rain squalls off of a tropical storm at the time! Or as I like say, "I've always been a storm"!

[Patsy Stone]

79. Same as my hubby! Hi! :) n/t

[Shopaholic]

81. No wonder he's so fabulous!

:toast:

[Patsy Stone]

84. LOL

It was a typing frenzy in here tonight! You had best get that laptop fixed, but quick. Also, we may have won the "Best Romance" Award in the DUDQ Thread.

Quel Embarrassment! :)

[Clark2008]

36. I love Taurus? Taurisi?

My son's a Taurus.

But, I'm a Cappy (I also have a B-day coming up). I would like Taursi. I don't know if I get along with Aquarians.

[DemReadingDU]

39. I am Capicorn too

Jan 16

[Clark2008]

67. Jan. 12 here.

[Miami Liberal]

40. Capricorn here too!

:)

[femme.democratique]

73. me too...(moi aussi!)

[Miami Liberal]

74. Cool!

Looks like a lot of us are Cappys. :)

[femme.democratique]

77. well, ya know capricorns are ambitious....and smart! :-) eom

[Shopaholic]

80. Funny you should mention Capricorn--KO's complete planet line-up

Sun-Aquarius
Moon-Virgo
Mercury-Capricorn
Venus-Aquarius
Mars-Taurus
Jupiter-Scorpio
Saturn-Capricorn
Uranus-Leo
Pluto-Virgo
Asc. (Rising Sign)-Taurus

[femme.democratique]

82. OK, so what does that all mean??? Please share....

[Shopaholic]

83. It means he's fabulous and we love him.

I'd go into a lot more detail about the chart, but I've had an exhausting day today so I'm turning out the lights now. I'll give you a brief rundown though--his chart is about what you'd expect it to be. It shows that he's very, very intelligent, very focused and determined, doesn't mind (nay, enjoys) clashing with authority, that he's a great storyteller, has an amazing memory, and is pretty picky when it comes to the ladies. Also has a great sense of humor.

You might try to get one of the astrologers over in the astrology group to do a brief chart explanation--there are real pros hanging out over there and they are about 100 times smarter and better at it than I am!

KO's birthdate: 1-27-1959 in New York City.

[crispini]

86. Oooo, good idea.

(bookmarking for future reference)

HEY, his b'day is Jan 27th? We should send him our various tributes (tie, poem, cookies, etc.) for his b'day!

[Patsy Stone]

52. I'm a Leo

I share my b-day w/the Big Dog (double plus swoon!); but he's older. :) And, we're both left-handed!

[crispini]

59. Man, am I the only Libra in the gang?

that's odd....

[Patsy Stone]

61. Hey, baby, what's your sign? This is turning into a 70's disco... :) n/t

[Nothing Without Hope]

72. Nope Libra here too - I'm back after missing the Brigade thread

with Aquarius Moon & Taurus rising, so I obviously have a LOT in common with KO, from what is said elsewhere on this thread!
;)

[crispini]

76. Yay, another Libra! n/t

[Nothing Without Hope]

87. Yeah, we gotta show 'em all how to keep a balanced outlook!

I'm sure they will want to know!:eyes:

Nice to hear from a Brigader, since I was sadly reflecting that I had to miss participating in the Thread tonight. The news is important, and so are the humor and good company. Hard to get enough laughs these scary days.

Good night
:boring:

[Jo March]

85. Nope! Another Libra checking in

And I love Keith. I always have.

No woman will ever have the love for Keith that I do. Do you hear that, Keith?

Keith?

Why won't he love me???

:loveya:

[loritooker]

69. That's my son's b-day too! As a Virgo, I love that Leo flair! n/t

[Patsy Stone]

70. Yes!

Hubby is Virgo. Interesting mix. Half slobs, half neat freaks.

:)

[bunny planet]

89. OMG that's so me. My husband is on the cusp of Taurus/Aries.

My older daughter is an Aries.
My son is Pisces
My little one Aquarius.

I really must be Virgo with a Virgo rising but I've never had a chart done. Will someone astrologically analyze me over at the Astrology Group?

[Patsy Stone]

90. I've never been, but I bet they will. n/t

[bunny planet]

29. not moi, taken too.

[bettyellen]

41. Hey Ladies!! I'm baaaack! Are we staying here or is an Official thread...

going up? gotta run to the store now, Well, i know i will find y'all kicked way up high wherer we belong.
:hi:
:loveya:

[Patsy Stone]

43. Are we all here early?

Briefly mentioned at the bottom of today's newsletter.

Tonight on Countdown

More:
In all, 37 voters in this Ohio are challenging President Bush's Nov. 2 victory over Democratic Sen. John Kerry. They want Ohio Supreme Court Chief Justice Thomas Moyer to set aside the election results.



:loveya:

[Miami Liberal]

46. Yup, we're eager with anticipation tonight!

:hi:

:loveya:

[DemReadingDU]

65. Blue shirt, blue pladish tie

Steel gray jacket


And these kids are making me sad. :( Excuse me while I go hug my son - which means I'll be wet coz he's in the bath

[Catchawave]

54. Ya'll answered my question...THANKS...

Looks like a YES :grouphug: :loveya: :grouphug:

[KaryninMiami]

56. Do you think Keith knows about his the KO Groupies at DU?

Maybe we should make this an official Keith O Fan Club! Then we can all write to him and ask for autographed photosm send him group valentine cards, etc. I don't generally post anything during the "magic hour" but I almost always check in here to make sure that the group doing their thing while he is on the air because no matter how bad my day has been, reading the posts from this group about him almost always makes me smile (except for those nights when he lets us down and everyone collectively dumps on him!) :)

Time to tune in!

[bunny planet]

57. See you during the commercials

[Patsy Stone]

60. Got your track shoes on girl? n/t :)

[Patsy Stone]

58. I still say hire him through the Speakers' Bureau.

Had to be a part of it :)

[Miami Liberal]

62. WTF is he wearing?

[Patsy Stone]

63. Shirt & tie = good; Grey suit, not so much. :) n/t

[Catchawave]

68. Jacket looks tan on my screen?

[crispini]

[Left coast liberal]

88. Hi gals! How was Keith tonight? I missed it! nt

[Moderator]

91. Locking

KO is a great guy but this is really not the proper forum for a fan club meeting to discuss him. The Lounge would be a more appropriate venue for the next meeting. Thank you.
