KOEB : Casual Friday

[bettyellen]

Because the first ten minutes of last night were so good they made my Friday morning.
Thank you, Keith! And may we all have a great weekend!


:loveya: :loveya: :loveya: :loveya: :loveya: :loveya: :loveya: :loveya: :loveya:

Ladies, it's been way too long since I've been here early enough to post......
:loveya: :loveya: :loveya: :loveya: :loveya: :loveya: :loveya: :loveya: :loveya:

[RevCheesehead]

1. Hi there, BettyEllen.

:hi: Got a song for us tonight?

For Keith: :loveya::loveya::loveya:

For Sparky, Bleever, Botany, Understanding Life, and any other testosterone-driven beings (does that include Grovelbot?):
:loveya::loveya::loveya::loveya::loveya::loveya:

[bettyellen]

19. Some day, when I'm awfully low.......When the world is cold,

I will feel a glow just thinking of you...
And the way you look tonight.

Yes you're lovely, with your smile so warm
And your cheeks so soft,
There is nothing for me but to love you,
And the way you look tonight.

With each word your tenderness grows,
Tearing my fear apart...
And that laugh that wrinkles your nose,
It touches my foolish heart.

Lovely ... Never, ever change.
Keep that breathless charm.
Won't you please arrange it ?
'Cause I love you ... Just the way you look tonight.

I used to sing that to my nephew all the time.

[sparky_in_ma]

34. Are you going

to sing in the lounge again tonite? Wear that dress again, you looked great!

[Botany]

61. Frank's Best

;-)

and the way you look tonight.....

[bettyellen]

99. and Ella does a bang up job on it, too.

[Botany]

124. I love Ella but .....

..... Cow Cow Boogie was her best ..... (pop sort of)


.... Take the A Train w/ Duke Ellington ....... (cat's p.j.'s as the kids today say!)

Nice work if you can get it ......

[bettyellen]

174. Holding hands at midnight, neath the stars high above. Nice work if you

can get it, and you can get it if you try...

[Botany]

182. You the best KOEB who is an EDV! Do not tell the others shhhhh!

My ex tried to tell that Celion Dion was better than ....Ella.

After we got married. LOL

[sparky_in_ma]

135. Dear Cheese

thanks for the floaties. (vermont chedder):)

[RevCheesehead]

144. You did it! YEAH!!!!

Sparky, this is just for you:
:loveya::loveya::loveya::loveya::loveya::loveya::loveya::loveya::loveya::loveya::loveya::loveya:

[sparky_in_ma]

153. Thanks Rev

Can't help it, I just like saying Rev. When I was a young teen there was this nice looking lady at the unitarian church.(sigh)

:loveya:

[RevCheesehead]

176. oh, well then, that's ok.

If it reminds you of a woman, that's great! (and if it makes you feel like a young teenager, that's even better!):*

[sparky_in_ma]

183. It does

We were raised congregationalists, but my friends went to the Unitarian church so I used to go there with them. I can't remember whether they were called ministers or reverends, but when I first saw your name my mind flew back to those days. I had forgotten all about it. (one of my first teenage crushes.)

[RevCheesehead]

196. And if I'm lucky,...

I can be one of your first virtual crushes! :loveya:

[sparky_in_ma]

200. Well......

I must admit to a crush on the ladies of the KOEB. Classy, sophisticated, but when the hair is let down,:loveya:

[RevCheesehead]

213. Good answer.

Non-committal, leaves the door open, and ensures bigger tips from all the EDV's of KOEB.

You's a smart man, Sparks! B-)

[sparky_in_ma]

222. : )

Taking it further, I had a crush on you since classwarrior said you had a stained glass window with Brett Favre on it.:loveya:

[RevCheesehead]

225. St. Brett of the Cheeseheads, just for you.

(it's not really in my church, but it should be!)

[sparky_in_ma]

227. That's the one!!

I love that one, the cheese hats are so cute.

[RevCheesehead]

237. Then you might like this one, too:

Favragon

[sparky_in_ma]

243. : )

Ya know, I've already thought of a word ballon for that one.:)

[gkhouston]

252. are you going to share it with us

or just be a big old tease, as usual?

[sparky_in_ma]

255. Got to photoshop it

Should have it ready for Monday.:)

[RevCheesehead]

262. I'll be waiting!

Sorry it took so long to respond. My computer went "poof" one too many times. After a virus-scan, I found out I had 14 various infections. No wonder I haven't been feeling so good!

[WhirlyGirl]

259. I used to go to the UU church with some sch. teachers who were mentors...

... so dif from my childhood Lutheran order of service, which is also beautiful.
The Unitarians read from what they called "the scriptures of humanity" -- anything from religious writing to poetry.

(The teachers quipped that the pking lot looked like a Volkswagon hatchery on account of all the teachers who belonged, and who all drove Bugs!)

Our local Unitarian church has for years presented "jazz sermons." Now other denominations are trying it (incl. a Lutheran church -- so it's all come full circle!)

2. Hola Vixens!

See you at commercial time.

[bettyellen]

3. before this gets buried in a flurry of hellos- need photo hosting advice

i have learned photobucket, but is there any easier way to digitally share a large amount of photos?
i want to make it easy for someone to share their digitals through emails, and i'm afraid it's a lot of photos.
thanks!
:loveya:

[suffragette]

7. is this for the Jan 6th photos?

[crispini]

47. You could

zip them all up and email them to the person?

[suffragette]

4. Hiya betty

[bettyellen]

23. you know it-- i'm shamless. i wanna see you and me, LOL!

and the other lovelies we met that night.

[suffragette]

35. I can't wait to see those again

Selmo took some great pics that night.

If you get a minute, please check out my thread here on the situation with Election Reform in WA State. We need help!

[bettyellen]

45. yes mam, will do...

[suffragette]

64. he's north of me

I talked to him a couple days ago. I hope he's ok, too.

[Patsy Stone]

5. Hey, bettyellen!

:loveya: :loveya: :loveya: :loveya: :loveya: :loveya: :loveya: :loveya: :loveya:

[Shopaholic]

20. Thank you dear sweet Pats for posting that pic of KO

That's my favorite KO photo!

[RevCheesehead]

26. Isn't that the "mattress" photo?

"I just hit a damned mattress on the way home."

[Patsy Stone]

38. LOL, Rev.

It is, but I didn't. Not tonight anyway. Happy Friday!
If he asked, however, I might be persuaded to hit a mattress...
:loveya::loveya::loveya::loveya::loveya::loveya::loveya::loveya::loveya:

[crispini]

62. LOL, Pats! nt

[Patsy Stone]

30. Happy Friday, Shop!

Glad I could make you happy... I love scruffy Keef. :loveya: :loveya: :loveya: :loveya: :loveya: :loveya: :loveya: :loveya: :loveya:

[bettyellen]

65. Happy 3 day weekend...Patsy, Shop, Crispy, Seto, ...oh damn, this is how

I get into trouble...
Rev, Miami, Sharon....... to be continued!
and:
:loveya:

[WhirlyGirl]

260. There's one KO pic I like, but I've never seen it...

anywhere except on pg. 137 of the "Big Show" book Keith wrote with Dan Patrick.

It's a conception of Keith as he *might* have turned out, had it not been for ESPN and SportsCenter: basically, as Maynard G. Krebs or some other beatnik type.

If it was the only way we'd ever known Keith, we'd probably think he looked pretty cool that way -- since KO's is the classic case of "Handsome is..."

Uh-Oh, here come those palpitations again -- <thump thump thump thump thump thump>
Ooooooooooooooooh, Keeeeeeeeeeeeith!!! <sighhh> :loveya: :loveya: :loveya: :loveya: :loveya: :loveya: :loveya: :loveya:

263. Girl, you got it bad!

All those floaty hearts reminds me of the early days of the KOEB. You remind me of Crispini. :evilgrin:

edited for inadvertant cat-posting. :)

[WhirlyGirl]

264. Can one be too generous w/ floaty hearts...

... when praising or responding to KO's charms?!

(Heavenly days! I hope these little guys aren't endangered! --

275. Do you mean this photo--

[WhirlyGirl]

276. Yes! Like, MAN, like, WOW, like, that is TOO GROOVY!

If the shirt has a little pocket in the sleeve for cigs, the uniform is complete. :-)

He's, like, welcome to bring his bongo drums and crash at my pad any time. :bounce:

[WhirlyGirl]

277. We should start the KOEB meeting off with that pic some night...

... just to hear people go, "WHA--?"

LOL!

[Miami Liberal]

279. LOL, I have never seen that picture before

What the hell was he doing there? Looks like he's playing a keyboard and singing a tune.

[WhirlyGirl]

280. Scroll back up to Msg. 260, where the context is explained - LOL!

282. I accidentally replied to myself when I meant to reply to you

on post 281. :silly:

283. It's easy to get a little punchy...

... when discussing KO. (OOPS!-- unintentional pun!) :crazy:

10. Hi Guys

Checking in
:grouphug:

[bettyellen]

106. hello Ivote! nice to see you here.....

[SharonRB]

8. Hi, everyone

:hi:
I missed you all last night. I got home late from work and just didn't feel like logging on. I watched the whole show, though.

[Clark2008]

9. Good evening!

Keef is on the warpath: connecting GanGuckert to Daschle and other dubious "news" events.
Did I mention that I love Keith Olbermann?

:loveya: :loveya:

Wild Turkery - and not the good kind!

Cue Beethovan's Ninth!

[Patsy Stone]

11. Oh, it's gonna be a good night

Jeff Gannon and Repug v. Repug re: SS. :)

Yay! Go get 'em KO! :loveya: :loveya: :loveya: :loveya: :loveya: :loveya: :loveya: :loveya: :loveya:

[RevCheesehead]

12. heh - "republican vs. republican"

reminds me of "Spy vs. Spy"

[Clark2008]

13. Republicans vs. Neo-Cons

Let's just make that clear.

;)

[Shopaholic]

33. Damn straight--

I love it when they call them the "Neo-Con Death Cult" on Morning Sedition on Air America. I think that's an apt description of what they're all about.

[Botany]

14. Sparky look out!

One of the EDVs has told me in PM that she wants to "drink a little
much" tonight. I will not name names so please just fess up.

You will take her home ..... she will say the light is out ..... please come in.

Boom Buddy on the stand by the door is a stun gun and ropes .....

Her last victim said he saw a little monkey as the night went on .....
"She was an Organ Grinder!" The man is still in therapy.....

Be careful .... ok EDV admit it and I will not have to out you.


SWBM !

Stephanie :loveya: Miller

[Patsy Stone]

18. Hey, Botany

On further reflection, I think I like "PropaGannon" the best. :hi:

[bettyellen]

52. okay, that is not about me.... i dance on tables and sing....

but a monkey and a stun gun? Nope, not my normal props.....

[sparky_in_ma]

57. whew, I'm glad to hear that

( I do like the table dancing)

[Botany]

96. Sparky I am begging you.......

...... look out. She seems nice but ...... :scared:

and the :spank:

one poor fella is now an O8)

BTW I will have another merlot when you get a chance kind sir......
serve the EDVs first ..... they can be a little demanding

[sparky_in_ma]

101. Hi Botnay (and Chris and Steph)

Glad to get you a merlot. I hear you've been talking to Steph quite regular. You the man!

[Botany]

117. I will neither confirm or deny any story.

You people are looking into my personal life ......
have you no shame!

Sincerely,
J. Gannon


BTW mangate will take bush down....
Drinks on me.

[WhirlyGirl]

265. Are Bushies so disingenuous, they'll actually pretend...

... not to realize that the emphasis on "Gannon's" personal history is due to the GOP's tiresome & preposterous claim that "conservatives" are more godly than everybody else?! :grr:

------------
<< You people are looking into my personal life ...... have you no shame! Sincerely, J. Gannon >> Botany

[WhirlyGirl]

266. Milbank is funny, tho...

... cracking, "I'm now starting to write my articles for hotmilitarystuds.com" to show how thoroughly the media have been co-opted by the administration! LOL!

[SharonRB]

15. I've been saying all along they should just raise the cap

Duh! How hard would that be?

[sparky_in_ma]

16. Hi Ladies

[RevCheesehead]

21. Somebody's been playing with their new smilies!

Very cute, Sparky. :loveya:

[sparky_in_ma]

25. Yup

(don't ya just love it) :)

[bettyellen]

oh my you are full of suprises, sparky!

:hug: thanks for everything.

[merh]

43. Hey ya sparky!

Do you mind if I borrow your icon? :loveya:


:loveya: :loveya: :loveya: Keef & all KOEBer's :loveya: :loveya: :loveya:

[sparky_in_ma]

48. Please do

It's for the KOEB (and so true)

[crispini]

68. THAT is too funny.

I may have to steal it..... :)

[sparky_in_ma]

87. K

That's what it's for.

[Patsy Stone]

71. Hi there, sparky

How's it goin'?

[sparky_in_ma]

84. Going good, I'm gonna hit 1000 in a few

[SharonRB]

100. And you'll be with all of us, just like I was the other night

A round of drinks for everyone, on me.

[RevCheesehead]

104. Well, let's make sure it happens here tonight!

We'll throw you a party and serenade you, and cover you in floaty hearts and bodices.

[Patsy Stone]

108. Congrats!

So nice to see. Are you gonna do it here or in the "I believe" thread?
:)

[sparky_in_ma]

110. I opened up the I believe thread

it was my first, and I've tried to make every milestone there. I'm just a sentimental softie.

[Patsy Stone]

121. Good for you...

Glad to hear it. :)

[keepthemhonest]

169. i bet you 800

of those go to KOEB and I believe! threads congrats

[sparky_in_ma]

177. Hi KTH

You're right. I venture into GD seldom, too new, still learning how not to piss people off. I write quite bluntly, and without tonal inflection, people could take offense. It's why I don't do much chat room stuff. In person it's easy to see I'm a sweetheart.O8)

[keepthemhonest]

184. awhhh

we all know we your heart is Sparky, we love you in these threads. You are right though, things can easily get misconstrued.Some people can be down right mean.MEAN PEOPLE SUCK

[seito]

59. Hi mehr

haven't seen you in awhile :hi:

[merh]

90. Been a hectic week, when I get home, the thread gets so busy

I can't access it because I have dial up. Right now still at the office trying to get my desk clean, hate Mondays and cluttered desks.

I have been tormenting, I mean debating, a worm in GD all week, he thinks jimmy-jeff-guckert-gannon-cannon-gerkin is no big deal and a non-story! After feeding him facts and giving him links, he started the personal attack thing, so I know he is just a hard head with over 10,000 posts - an old timer that must be a journalist! He defends the schmucks!

[RevCheesehead]

123. I love it when you talk dirty.

Don't forget the DU motto: Never Give Up, Never Surrender!

[merh]

221. LOL - you've got it!

Never Give Up! Never Surrender!

I DU Believe!!

:loveya: :loveya: :loveya: KEEF!!!

[merh]

261. As I read the posts here, I notice that you taught sparky

how to make those wonderful icons. Can you teach me, please? :pals:

[seito]

274. I just gave him this

http://www.planetsmilies.com/smilies/rolleye/rolleye.php

He took it to the next level.

[merh]

278. Thanks for the link.

:hi:

[crispini]

17. Hi ladies!

:hi: What a lovely evening it is! :loveya: for KO!

[SharonRB]

22. Genetic disease --

"no new taxes"! LOL

[crispini]

27. "The bleeding lip club" -- heh! nt

[Patsy Stone]

24. You GO Pat Buchanan

* Family has a genetic disease? Read my lips, "No new taxes!" LOL!
Wow, everyone hates this guy. You know it's getting serious when Pat Buchanan makes f'n sense!

:)

[merh]

107. Hey Patsy - Anderson Cooper just slammed Jimmy-Jeff in his

interview with him. http://www.democraticunderground.com/discuss/duboard.php?az=view_all&address=104x3139489

Looks like Anderson wants a KOEB type thread!

[Patsy Stone]

129. I think that

some guys should start the ACTB. :)

Hi, merh! :hi:

[crispini]

134. LOL, ACTB....

somehow I don't the guys would be as prone to do this :loveya:

[Patsy Stone]

136. Oh, it all depends on the guys.

I'm sure meny men would post :loveya: for Anderson in they knew they had the option. :)

Happy Friday, crispi! :hi:

[Greylyn58]

28. Checking in for the KO Love-fest

[SaveAmerica]

29. Do you notice anything different about me?

I guess it will be hard to tell since I mostly read KOEB play by play and haven't posted much here.
Now you're all staring at me, when I get nervous I put my hands under my armpits and sniff em, like this sniff sniff
SUPERSTAR!!!

Thank you floaties to crispini:

This week is our first quarter 2005 fund drive. Democratic
Underground is a completely independent website. We depend almost entirely
on donations from our members to cover our costs. Thank you so much for
your support.

[SharonRB]

39. Hi, Grovel!

[Shopaholic]

40. Grovel--sweetie--

hello. You can't stay away from the KOEB, can you?

[RevCheesehead]

42. "Thou Shalt Not Covet," Grovelbot.

I'm sure that applies to non-sentient beings as well as humans.

[bettyellen]

70. hey, i recognize those boots! Skinner, you sneak!!

[SharonRB]

93. KO even had robot stories for you, Grovel!

[RevCheesehead]

118. -sniff-

Keith likes Grovelbot best. :cry:

[Clark2008]

44. James Guckert is so difficult to pronounce...

"Hi. I'm Keith OLBERMANN."

:shrug:


ROFLMAO!

[crispini]

49. THAT was funny.

"If you put naked pictures of yourself on the internet you really don't have much control over what happens to them." LOL.

[sparky_in_ma]

51. That's what keep me from doing it.

[Clark2008]

53. Should we be looking for some of Keith?

:wow:

Just kidding - or maybe not!

;)

[gkhouston]

239. when he was on Leno, discussing the "sexiest newscaster"

contest, and Leno showed the picture of him in the orange ruffled shirt, KO sort of cringed and said, "naked would have been less embarrassing". I guess if he wins again, maybe he should opt for less embarrassing? :evilgrin:

[Shopaholic]

258. From your mouth to God's ears. . .

:evilgrin:

[bettyellen]

56. the man is an idiot as well as a liar. and i love it. LOVE IT!

[RevCheesehead]

50. Jimmy-Jeff was at the White House Christmas Party?

OK, that's just not right.

Was he Rove's date? :evilgrin:

[Clark2008]

58. I was getting ready to ask, "In what capacity?"

Was he a guest or the entertainment?

:evilgrin:

[sparky_in_ma]

63. ewwww...

go to my happy place.

[Clark2008]

74. No one ever said blog reporting was a pleasant job.

LOL!

[pstans]

54. 2 scary comments

"Gannon was at the White House Christmas Party" Was he serving drinks topless with a bowtie on?

"Limbaugh is on a Government funded trip to the Middle East." At least he is too fat to run from the insurgents.

[RevCheesehead]

60. LOL!

What, is he pimping drugs for the CIA?

[Shopaholic]

67. Topless-he probably wasn't wearing pants

[bunny planet]

66. I like this one!

[WhirlyGirl]

267. Getting close to that "Maynard" photo in The Big Show!

----------
<< I like this one! >> bunny

[Clark2008]

69. Knee report: It's not broken or sprained

I have FOOTBALL KNEE!! In fact, my doctor even said, "Do you remember in between the regular season and the bowl game of Peyton Manning's last year? When he was on David Letterman? And his knee was so big and huge and swollen? Well, you have what he has, only not as bad."

LOL!

Basically, football knee is bursitis - water in the bursa sac. All I have to do is take anti-inflammatories and treat my knee with some TLC.

Whew!

Of couse, this just proves how much I adore Keith. I get an injury generally reserved for SPORTS stars. :eyes:

[SharonRB]

73. Glad to hear you're okay, Clark

[SaveAmerica]

76. Excellent news!

:bounce:

[RevCheesehead]

77. Maybe now you'll stay off the field.

Sorry to hear it, but I'm glad it wasn't more serious. At least you won't have to have surgery.

[crispini]

78. Yaaaaaay!

So glad to hear it's not broken! :thumbsup:

[sparky_in_ma]

79. Good to hear!!

[Patsy Stone]

80. That's excellent news. Have you been "punting" again?

Hopefully you were better than O'Lielly. :(

[Clark2008]

86. Actually, I did it tackling that linebacker.

Which is really very funny if you knew how small of a person I am!

LOL!

[gkhouston]

240. next time, use the stun gun

I think Botany's got one.

on edit: glad it's nothing too horrible, although I'm sure it hurts like hell. Do follow the doctor's advice about babying it; you don't want this to come back and bite you in the future. Joints are very unforgiving.

[Shopaholic]

91. Now that's devotion to KO

Clark!

Glad to hear it's not something really serious. It still sounds very painful but at least it's really treatable.

[WhirlyGirl]

268. You should be off the sidelines in no time, Clark!

That is good news indeed!

75. Oh, the inventor of the Crash Test Dummy died.

I would love to own one.

[Clark2008]

82. He would have come in handy on mattress night.

:)

[bettyellen]

81. Crash Test Dummies- I found a mistake in the reporting of that, they

say how hard it was to find living volunteers and so it was great he invented them.
Excuse me, but they used to use human corpses!!
They crashed them in planes too, and found out that falling in to the ocean usually rips your clothes off. Oh the indignity.

[Patsy Stone]

85. That's gross, betty.

Thanks for sharing. :)

I wish I had a three day weekend. How wonderful. Nice song, btw. Your rendition was spot on. :toast:

[sparky_in_ma]

89. Trying to talk her

into singing in the lounge again tonite. She rocked the place.

[SharonRB]

Okay, I'm officially confused

How come you keep posting and your post count isn't going up? I don't understand how they count sometimes.

[bettyellen]

98. thank you, i know it's gross, but people ought to know what

they might do to you if you donate your bod to science. How about helping with some corpse degradation research? bwaaaah.
I read "Stiff", and it made me rethink that one, LOL!

[Gogi]

218. An 'artist' took some bodies that had been donated and turned them into

'art'. He would pose them and then take pictures. One that I remember was of a headless male corpse fingering himself. You can thank me for sharing this with the KOEB later!
:loveya: Keef

(and if this doesn't work I swear off icons forever!)

Hooray! :loveya: :loveya: :loveya:

[sparky_in_ma]

223. yeech

more information than needed. LOL

[Gogi]

229. Makes you wonder who's sicker

the 'artist' or the people who bought his 'artwork'. :.)

[sparky_in_ma]

232. The people who bought it

He at least was in it for the money, they must "like" it.:puke:

[Sydnie]

83. Hi all -- late but here and I have the TV tonight again YEAH!

What a suckt day I had today.

Thanks for being here for me.

I think it's awfully cute Botany. You're still my buddy, right?

:loveya:

[Botany]

164. I did not call today .......

[Clark2008]

105. Hugs Sydnie

:hug:

You're in Floatie Heartland now, where an hour is a minute, the sky is always Keith's Tie blue and friends are always around to serve up some snark with your drink!

[Sydnie]

190. What you said was lovely

and I appreciate it very much. It was like a mental "Calgon" moment for me.

"hug" to you for making me feel so much better and so welcome!

::::deep cleansing breath to release the jumble in my head that was my day::::

[WhirlyGirl]

269. "Floatie Heartland" -- how lovely!

<< You're in Floatie Heartland now, where an hour is a minute, the sky is always Keith's Tie blue and friends are always around to serve up some snark with your drink! >> Clark

That's on the sign, right when you enter the city limits!

[sparky_in_ma]

113. Hi Syndie

I'll get you something strong.:toast:

[Sydnie]

128. You read my mind Sparky!

Thanks sweetie. You're the best! :loveya: :loveya:

[RevCheesehead]

94. KoKo's a Dirty Monkey!

Named in a sexual harassment suit - KO: "Damned dirty ape!"

[Clark2008]

95. OK, what do these people hope to gain from this cheeky monkey?

One hundred pounds of bananas as payment for dirty sign language?

[bettyellen]

112. did i tell you all about the monkey window in a local, short lived "erotic

boutique" ?
A monkey, wearing a french maid outfit, tied to a a swing, blindfolded. Sorry cheeky, you are just one kink over the limit.
Six years later, I can still see it. And they wondered why no one would go in there. ROTFL.

[crispini]

97. more exorcists?

sheesh! that's scary! :scared:

[WhirlyGirl]

270. "Possession is way up -- esp. in the U.S."

TELL us about it!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[Catchawave]

103. I think I just got a "shout out" from Keef:

The Robot Denise who walks like a drunk :::sigh:::

Hey, I'll take it! :loveya:

[Clark2008]

111. Do you walk like a drunk?

Heh!

:)

[Catchawave]

114. Only on special occasions -nt

Edit: spelling and to add a <snork>

[WhirlyGirl]

109. No one has mentioned THE TIE...

... but isn't that the one our guy is wearing tonite???

(Hi, everyone!)

[Shopaholic]

115. I don't think so.

no. he's wearing one that's more grey and black tonight.

[sparky_in_ma]

119. Hi WhirlyGirl

In ansewer to last nite's question, the avatar is my dad at 17, in the navy.

[bettyellen]

122. my dad is 10 or 11 and it was his confirmation day in Ireland......

and he's wearing a suit with short pants, awwww.

[Clark2008]

131. Mine is not nearly so noble this night.

It's the Barberini Faun in deference to GanGuckert!

:)

[bettyellen]

151. that's a good one!!

[sparky_in_ma]

126. Yes....hit a1000 on the I believe thread

I'm buying for the house.

[bear425]

141. Congratulations Sparky!

Hi all Keith looks great tonight, as usual. When, oh when, is he going to wear the really nice tie again?

Keef! :loveya:

[crispini]

148. yaaaaaaaaaaaaaaay!

Congrats sparky!

:beer: Thanks for the frosty beverage! :thumbsup:

[SharonRB]

157. I was trying to congratulate you and my computer crashed

I had to reboot and then I had a very hard time logging back onto the Internet. My husband has so much damn crap on this computer it makes me nuts!

[sparky_in_ma]

163. LOL

I have that problem every now and again. Us guys save everything.

[SharonRB]

185. It's not files he has too much of

He has way too many programs running -- spam blocker, virus scanner, SETI, all kinds of stuff that takes up memory.

Anyway, congratulations! Welcome to the over 1,000 club.




:bounce:

[bunny planet]

192. Congratulations Sparky!!!

[WhirlyGirl]

178. That's pretty cool! I've never considered...

... using a relative's photo as an avatar!

PS: Thanks for leaving that drink for me last night; posting is thirsty work. :-)

--------
<< In answer to last nite's question, the avatar is my dad at 17, in the navy. >> Sparky

[SharonRB]

120. Nope

[WhirlyGirl]

152. Yeah, I guess you're right -- it's not.

Just reviewed the photo of KO wearing it, above, and the cream stripe is much wider than on the one he's currently wearing.

[Clark2008]

116. Isn't it nice how those elections in Iraq made everything so safe?

:eyes:

When will the wingnuts learn?

Can the wingnuts learn?

[RevCheesehead]

127. OK, that Liger was too cute.

And he drinks like my Roo does - very sloppy, milk everywhere in the air around him.

[bunny planet]

130. Yet another strange bunny story coming up........

Oh Keef you like me, you really like me.

:loveya: :loveya: :loveya: :loveya: :loveya: :loveya: :loveya:


Back to the news,
When Allawi shoots 6 prisoners in the head at point blank range without any trial in view of witnesses, would that be an example of his tough, confrontational style?

Is the old Chalabi now the new Chalabi. Are we in bizarro world or what?

[sparky_in_ma]

132. That's the second bunny story

Do you have an in? :)

[bunny planet]

150. What was the first one. I just missed this one too. Gotta get a teevee

near the computer.

Better leave now for the upstairs trek if I don't want to miss the quiz with Perky girl.

See ya for the after soiree.

Got any cold Coronas and some lime wedgie thingies?

[sparky_in_ma]

160. Glad to fix you up with a few

I think it was a couple of weeks ago. I didn't bookmark the thread.

[RevCheesehead]

194. heh - she said "wedgie." n/t

[Patsy Stone]

133. Deputy Drumstick! LOL!

Okay, this wild turkey story is pretty funny!

[Sydnie]

139. That was too finny

I so needed Oddball tonight!

Thank you Keef! :loveya: :loveya: :loveya: :loveya: :loveya:

[Greylyn58]

154. That was just too funny!!

Deputy Drumstick. The sound of the turkey gobbling was hysterical.
Then watching it chase the cops around their cars. HEHEHEEH!!

:evilgrin: :bounce:

[Patsy Stone]

187. The cops giggling was a riot.

OMG. Hey, greylyn! Happy Friday! :toast:

[RevCheesehead]

137. OMG - that turkey video is TOO funny!!!

Some of the best footage ever!

That one should be Turkey: 2 Cops: 0

[keepthemhonest]

195. that was the best wasn't it.

That turkey had to be almost three feet tall.

[crispini]

138. The pot dog lives in my town!

there were even LTTE's in the paper about it, heh!

"mr. porter didn't look at all suspicious," LOL!!!

[Patsy Stone]

140. Every Friday...

marijuana stories... Is he telling us something? :evilgrin:

[Sydnie]

145. LOL he just might be

He did say "smoke it if you got it" one night didn't he? LOL

[Shopaholic]

146. As KO likes to say. . .

"smoke 'em if you got 'em." :evilgrin:

[bettyellen]

165. i'm with you on that one.........gotta get the voice back! i gotta ask

you, is there abetter way to share a bunch of photos than photobucket?
i was afraid that would mean repeated emails becasue they can't hold much...
any tips or easier ways?
thanks babe. i thought of you when i breeze through macys and sephora today!

[Shopaholic]

186. I so love Sephora.

And well, Macy's doesn't suck either. I consider Saks to be my spiritual home though. Ahh--Saks.

[Patsy Stone]

172. Dreamy sigh... n/t

[Clark2008]

149. Are we supposed to chill out on Fridays

LOL?

[Patsy Stone]

142. Charles and Camilla can't find a place to get married...

Oh, whatever...:eyes:

[WhirlyGirl]

271. ANOTHER good reason not to keep passing "marriage acts"...

-------------
<< Charles and Camilla can't find a place to get married... >> Patsy

[Patsy Stone]

143. Anyone send in a News Quiz question? n/t

[Gogi]

230. I did but it was my first attempt so I was'nt surprised it was'nt used.

Need more practice.


Now that I've conquered floaty hearts how do you make the green bouncy thingy?

[bettyellen]

147. me thinks he doth protest too much, and loves him some christo gates......

i knew someone who always used to say.....
hate turns to love
:loveya:

[Clark2008]

155. NOBODY expects the Spanish Inquisition!

:D

[bear425]

156. Smashing tie... I bought it myself!

Monica says,"Smashing tie." Keith says, "Thanks, I bought it myself." with a mischievous grin.

[RevCheesehead]

203. I missed that one!

Was that a call-out to the KOEB again? :loveya::loveya::loveya:

[bear425]

211. Absolutely!

He's definitely flirtin' with us.

:loveya: Keith!

[Sydnie]

158. "Kinder gentlier quiz"? LOL

She needs to stop flirting with our MAN though! :(

[RevCheesehead]

210. Oh, Monica's been reading the KOEB!

When she said "it's been brought to my attention that I've been - NOT so nice to you," I thought, no, you've been flirting with him, and you know it, and you know we know it, and we know that you know that we know it.....

[crispini]

159. Gina in Texas... is that Houston? nt

[gkhouston]

246. WHAT?

I haven't seen the show yet... had to watch a DVD with She Who Must Be Appeased... but I did actually send in a question this week. I wasn't expecting them to use it, though. Was it about SS?

[seito]

161. Nice tie BTW

Keef "I bought it myself"

[Clark2008]

168. Well, now we know.

And I'm still in shock over hearing my name connected to a Bunny.

;)

[bettyellen]

189. you caught that too!

you and sparky have the best smileys, is that ROTFL?

[seito]

209. Yep

That is my favorite smiley. :)

[WhirlyGirl]

272. "I bought it myself"

Was this comment by way of letting the army of doting "mommies" in the aud. know that, darn it, he's old enough to pick out his own clothes now?! :-)

[Clark2008]

162. OMG!! I got a shout out!

Lara is NOT Bugs' girlfriend's name, but, AHEM, it is mine!!

Glad to hear him say my name.

*faints*

[Catchawave]

173. TWO KOEB names mentioned tonight......

..isn't that special :)

[Clark2008]

180. Three...

Denise upthread said she got a shout-out during the robot segment (on edit, which would be, ahhh, YOU! LOL! Didn't notice to whom I was replying!).
Gina in Texas is probably our GKHouston.
And - slobber - my name in place of the bunny he couldn't remember. ;) Of course, that last one cost him $50, but he'll remember my name!

[bunny planet]

179. Whoa Clarkie, that oughta make your knee feel better.

I hope you feel better soon too.

[Clark2008]

188. Knee? There's a problem with my knee?

Oh, yeah... I was so delirious there for a minute, I forgot!

:crazy:

LOL!

[Patsy Stone]

201. See... Now everything's okay.

You should tape the rerun and replay him saying it over and over. Maybe you could use it in your answering machine message? LOL!

:toast:

[Clark2008]

224. LMAO!

Hello this is (cue tape in Keith's voice) "Lara?" (end tape) and I'm not at home just now...

:)

[suffragette]

166. keithus interruptus

Sorry to throw in something that's not Keith related, but some nasty stuff is going on with Election Reform in WA State and we need your help.
Please see my post at http://www.democraticunderground.com/discuss/duboard.php?az=view_all&address=203x329874 and help if you can. We could use the positive energy of the KOEB.
I now return you to your regular programming :loveya:

[crispini]

167. LOL, the Gates present... I knew they'd find a way

to give him something connected with the gates..... Ha, he pretended to smash it!

[Clark2008]

175. Why do I like men who smash things?

Pete Townshend...
Keith Olbermann...

And, since Wes Clark was in a war, I guess you could include him, as well.

:evilgrin:

[Clark2008]

199. And, apparently, I like men with odd last names.

OLBERMANN
TOWNSHEND

And, trust me, my ex husband's last name was a doozy, too! ;)

[gkhouston]

249. yeah, there's a reason I didn't legally change my name

when I married... I'd already seen how many ways my husband's name gets mangled!

[Patsy Stone]

170. News Quiz time!

2 minutes, as many questions as possible, incorrect answers = $50.

1) Date that the gates will be taken down?
2) Abalas: Baby 81
3) Two animals representing the US and S. Korea? Tiger and the porcupine
4) Three reporters using the FDR speech to sell Social Securtiy reform: Brit Hume, Bill Bennett, and John Fund.
5) How many lives saved by the flu vaccine: 0
6) Which Looney Toons have been re-imagined: Bugs, Daffy, Taz, Roadrunner, Wile E. Coyote, Lola
7) What year is the series Lunatics set in: 2772
8) What year was Gannon/Guckert's employer Talon created? 3/03


LOL! Picture of Christo and his wife w/a swatch of the material is the prize!

7/8 not bad KO: :loveya:

[bunny planet]

171. Awww, he really likes the quiz game. He just pretends that he doesn't

Love any evil twin reference.

Giving him the shower curtain/ car wash swatch of Christo's 'gates' was a pretty funny gift.

And......... She said NICE TIE, and he said.....Thanks, I bought it myself!!!

They are funning with us ladies ( are they laughing at us or with us)

Oh who cares.
:loveya: :loveya: :loveya: :loveya: :loveya: :loveya:

[seito]

181. You know

there might have been more than one tie sent. :think:

Just sayin...fess up guys.

[bunny planet]

193. no.

really?

[Patsy Stone]

198. After all the time

it took to pick just the one? LOL. Don't think so.

Hey, bunny! Happy Friday. I think it was his way of saying he likes striped ties. :)

[bunny planet]

202. He really does seem to like the stripers doesn't he?

Hiya Patsy!
btw, I like your Propagannon.
I also like 'rubmybaldheadgate'. I was inspired by all the pics going around of the blivet rubbing baldie's heads.

[Patsy Stone]

204. It wasn't mine...

Sadly, I wish. I saw it at dKos. But funny nonetheless. That guy is so disgusting.

[crispini]

208. It *is* kind of interesting that it's so close to the one we picked.

Hm............

[bunny planet]

216. I think we got him in touch with his inner stripes.

Now he can't stop wearing them. I definitely did not notice as many striped ties before 'Ties that bind Tuesday.'

[seito]

207. I don't know

It seems to me that he has a LOT of new ties. But, there is only one KOEB tie.

To the ties that bind. :toast:

[WhirlyGirl]

273. ... And NOW he has that swatch of safety orange RIGHT WHERE HE WANTS IT!

-- ;-)

[WhirlyGirl]

191. Great show tonight! I laughed myself silly (silli-ER)!

Spending some quality time with my #1 this evening.

MAJOR SPOUSAL FLOATIES: :loveya: :loveya: :loveya: :loveya: :loveya: :loveya: :loveya::loveya: :loveya: :loveya: :loveya: :loveya:

Back later, to blog the midnight replay....

[bunny planet]

205. Awwww, spousal floaties here too.

He was all dressed up tonight to go to Friday services wearing one of the 'experimental' ties I bought him during KO serial shopping week. He of course has no idea he was wearing one of the rejects.
:loveya: :loveya: :loveya: :loveya: :loveya: :loveya: :loveya: :loveya:

[sparky_in_ma]

206. LOL

You really bought experimental ties? That is too funny.:+

[bunny planet]

212. I bought about 5. And they were spectacular.

Hubby loves them, and has no idea I was buying him sloppy seconds.

Shhhhhh!

[sparky_in_ma]

214. My lips are sealed

You ladies do make me smile.:7

[bunny planet]

215. I stole your little siggie pic too Sparky. Hope you don't mind.

It's so cute.

[sparky_in_ma]

217. I made it for the KOEB

I'm teaching myself how to do more things every day.:) I've got to play with all the smilies seito showed me.

[bunny planet]

219. Seito rules with the smilies, doesn't she. One for every occasion and

posted like lightening. Simply awesome.

[WhirlyGirl]

256. Can you give GrovelB a tie, Sparky?

------------
<< I made it for the KOEB. I'm teaching myself how to do more things every day. I've got to play with all the smilies seito showed me. >> Sparky

[sparky_in_ma]

257. I'm not that good

but I could give it a try.:)

[Botany]

197. Early night!

Sparky take care of the EDVs!

BTW any dish from the KOEB I should know about?

:beer:

[justsomegirl]

220. i can't believe it!

they read my question on the newsquiz! :wow:

[sparky_in_ma]

226. Congrads

That is quite cool.:thumbsup:

[crispini]

228. WooooHooo!

:yourock: How cool is that!

[RevCheesehead]

231. which one was yours?

Congrats on being one of the chosen: :toast:

[justsomegirl]

241. Thanks!

It was question #1, the one about "the gates" - i figured it would get his goat :evilgrin:

[gkhouston]

233. Is there any beer left?

Just sticking my nose in between shows. Sparky, could I have a mug of your best or have you guys already floated the keg?

[sparky_in_ma]

234. I always save some

for later. Please drink up.:smoke:

[gkhouston]

235. Thank you, kind sir.

You have one, too. You sound almost sober, and that can't be a good thing on Friday. :beer:

[sparky_in_ma]

236. I never drink much

but it's good if you do.:smoke:

[gkhouston]

238. we know you never drink much

that's why a couple of beers works better than a stun gun... we don't have to wait for you to wake up. :evilgrin:

[sparky_in_ma]

242. ROFLMAO

So....you better not have the monkey too.:)

[gkhouston]

244. I don't do animals

well, I don't to anything that isn't homo sapiens.

[sparky_in_ma]

245. That was from a post

above. Botany said there was an EDV with stun gun, and a monkey. Didn't quite get the connection.:silly:

[gkhouston]

247. Not sure about the stun gun. I assume the monkey was a

reference to the Koko story. Actually, I don't do gorillas or stun guns, much less gorillas and stun guns. Botany's obsessed with props, which aren't going to help him if his basic work isn't sound.

[sparky_in_ma]

248. I'm not a real fan

of props. I prefer things natural.:)

[gkhouston]

250. is that why you so considerately

free us of those unnatural bodices? :hi:

[sparky_in_ma]

251. Yes

I'm trying to set you free on a spirtual level. Just the type of guy I am.O8)

[gkhouston]

253. gosh, what *did* I do for enlightenment before I met you

oh, yeah, there were all those other guys who had similar ideas about setting me free. Curiously, some of them wanted to tie me up to set me free. I haven't figured out how that works, yet.

[sparky_in_ma]

254. That works too

trust me. (somehow posting the angel doesn't work, cos you can't see the absolutely perfect impression of innocence on my face.)
