[Patsy Stone]

:loveya::loveya:

ed: I like this picture sooo much better.

[RevCheesehead]

1. Dana Milbank is wearing Keith's grey suit!

Hi, Patsy! :hi:

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


ooops... I'm always mixing them up. :blush:

[bleever]

3. Whoa, is that some kinda Cincinnati Bengals tie he's got on?

Bi-ZAY.

:)

[RevCheesehead]

5. A year ago, we would have called it "election fraud orange."

Is it my imagination, or is the studio lighting considerably better tonight?

[Patsy Stone]

15. They were at 30 Rock last night

as Berry posted. I had all kinds of issues with the lights last night.

Hiya, Rev! :hi:

[RevCheesehead]

20. Yeah, but it seems less Blue in Secaucus tonight..

than, say, Secaucus last week.

Then again, it just might be the dark suit. :loveya:

[Patsy Stone]

25. Oh, I understand...

You're right about the "blueish" quality. I think that's why I noticed there was less visible gray last night. Recently, it had been very blue/white.

The suit is good. :loveya:

[RevCheesehead]

29. Maybe they got new gels?

For the lights and for the hair? :evilgrin:

[Patsy Stone]

57. It's something

that's for sure. Regardless, he still looks yummy. :loveya:

[WolverineDG]

93. you were seeing orange

:hi: pats!

but i agree, that suit combo is good. :loveya:

dg

[WolverineDG]

12. it's the infamous tiggr tie

dg

[bleever]

2. Evening, Ladies. I mean, women. I mean, uh,

Hi!

:hi:

[RevCheesehead]

4. Hi, bleev.

You have my permission to call me a lady of the evening. ;)
(what? what reputation? :shrug:)

[bleever]

18. LOL. And I need your advice on something.

A Trader Joe's commercial on the radio said that their olives stuffed with blue cheese are great in martinis. My feeling: don't put cheese in martinis!! Martinis in Cheese, okay, but not the other way around.

What say you?

:)

[RevCheesehead]

23. Maybe an appletini.

I do not like gin. Tastes like a pine tree to me.

I also don't think I could fit inside any olive.

[Clark2008]

30. Oh, honey! Martini's are to be made with Stoli vodka!

No, no, no to gin!

Stoli and olive juice - the dirtier, the better.

[RevCheesehead]

38. As you've probably guessed...

I'm not that much of a drinker. Although I do enjoy wine, and, of course beer.

[Clark2008]

43. Most people do make them with gin, Rev.

I was just saying that they're much better with vodka. ;)

[RevCheesehead]

6. Hey Clark - were you in Knoxville today?

Telling Mr. Cheney to go F himself?

[Clark2008]

27. I'm always in Knoxville - 'tis where I live.

But, alas, I was working and not present to sing, "War: What is it good for? Absolutely NOTHING."

However, as an alumni of the University of Tennessee (two nights in a row on the KO show!), I am proud of my fellow alumni and students. :)

[RevCheesehead]

32. As well you should be!

I have a good friend who lived in K-nox-ville (as she called it). She said it was a wonderful place to live.

Oooh - sounds like more O'Leilly snark is coming our way later tonight. :)

[Clark2008]

35. Yeah... lol... we always pronounce the "K" as a joke.

The other nickname is "KnoxVegas." Go figure. :silly:

Love that O'Lielly snark!

[Catchawave]

7. I hate that TDS reruns against Keefer every night....

Not fair in the librul media...acckkk.

:loveya: :loveya: :loveya: :loveya: :loveya: Keef and Jon !

[WolverineDG]

8. Someone call Billy Joel

Some right wing-nuts have hijacked his song.....

dg

[RevCheesehead]

11. Jinx

Owe me a coke, DG. :) :hi:

[WolverineDG]

14. I said it first

:hi: rev. we'll settle up in nyc at the meetup, 'k? :)

dg

[RevCheesehead]

17. Deal.

Nice to see ya, Wolvie. Been having fun today?

[WolverineDG]

60. Some

will pm you later with another issue though...not serious, just, well, damn....

dg

[Berry Cool]

94. It was the first thought I had, too.

They should have titled this song "We Didn't Start the Liar."

[WolverineDG]

95. i can't decide

if billy joel should sue them for ripping off his song, or sue them for doing it so badly, or BOTH. :crazy:

dg

[bleever]

9. LOL. That righty song has a guitar lick that sounds like

Nyeah nyeah nah nyeah nah.


:rofl:

[Patsy Stone]

16. We Didn't Start the Fire

is where I am. Plus, he's right, it's baaaad. :hi:

[SharonRB]

39. My favorite Billy Joel song of all time

I memorized the words when it was popular.

[RevCheesehead]

10. Nice spit-take, Keith.

What was that music reminiscent of? Some Billy Joel song? (don't get me wrong - I like Billy Joel)

[Clark2008]

21. Actually, it just sucks.

I don't care from where the inspiration came.

:puke:

[Olney Blue]

31. Nice Clark pics!

:loveya:

[Clark2008]

40. I stoled it fwom anuvver DUer.

*draws toe in the sand*

Makes me all :loveya:, too. (And, obviously, full of baby talk).

PS- That first picture, speaking of Knoxville, was taken in Knoxville. On David Keith's porch. *sigh*

[Olney Blue]

13. Hi everyone!

That song, Bush was Right, was played at that pitiful support our
troops rally in DC on Sept 25. I saw it on C-span and couldn't believe
how horrible it was.

[Greylyn58]

19. Wow!!! That was sooooooooooooo bad!!!

Keith is right! That song SUCKS!!! It was incredibly bad.
I love when KO gives us his honest opinion. :evilgrin:

Hope everyone is doing well tonight. KO certainly is. Sheridan gives out a big Woof! Woof! to all his friends.

[ewagner]

28. Hey Sheridan

How 'bout a Beggin Strip ?

[RevCheesehead]

45. Hey Ed,

Did you buy a shovel today?

[ewagner]

Yep....

It's starting to stick to the driveway now...probably have to get up early to shovel it out....Weather Channel says it's going down to 8 Degrees tomorrow night! That should make this slushy stuff turn to rocks...

btw: :hi: :loveya:

[SharonRB]

49. Oooh, I hope it's not heading our way.

I don't want it to be too cold for the big showdown at the Big House on Saturday.

[RevCheesehead]

51. LOL, Sharon -

You might end up sharing your tickets with Botany after all! :rofl:

[ewagner]

53. Watch for #79

on Michigan....left tackle...he's a hometown boy and friend (well ex-friend) of my son's.

[SharonRB]

56. Name?

[ewagner]

62. Adam Stenavich

my son hasn't seen him but once since high school....they graduated together.

[SharonRB]

63. Oh, he's one of our best defensive guys

[RevCheesehead]

50. Oh, crap.

Then again, when have they been accurate? And more important, what does your son tell you?

It's just raining here. Yuk.

[ewagner]

59. He's been

with his fiance' all afternoon and evening. I had to call him about OUR weather...oh, yeah, forgot to mention that the girlfriend is probably going to officially be a fiance' very soon.

[RevCheesehead]

65. Oh, that would be nice!

Is this your first one to marry?

[ewagner]

78. Yep

Probably in May...right after he gets his Masters....btw: He's the ONLY child....

[RevCheesehead]

80. Is the Food Nazi willing to let him go?

You know mothers and sons - eternally bonded together. How's she taking all this?

[ewagner]

86. Very well, really

So far we're impressed with what we know about this lady....and we're relieved that the one he went with for three years decided to go elsewhere...especially after meeting her Mother who would have become the mother-in-law from HELL! So far we're breathing a big sigh of relief. We understand that he's purchased the ring but is going to wait until he asks the Father for his blessings...maybe right after Thanksgiving....she's supposed to come home with him for Christmas break....

[RevCheesehead]

42. Woof.

Nice doggie. :)

[Botany]

22. For Bill O'Rielly

KO is going drop the hammer on him, but good.

[RevCheesehead]

24. What the hell is that?

Looks like a giant Shredded Wheat biscuit.

[Olney Blue]

26. Bot, that's one protruding loofah. Yikes.

[Berry Cool]

44. Hi all!

:hi: Even half over, the show has been great!

Can't wait to see Keith put the hammer on O'Loofah, and for another installment of MJ Puppet Theatre!

He seemed especially aggressive in the script throw tonight!

[Olney Blue]

46. His best line tonight about "Bush is Right" song:

IT SUCKS!

[bleever]

84. I think it's a good time to be Keef.

[SharonRB]

33. I'm here after all

At the last minute I decided to sign up for one of the DNC organizing parties where Howard Dean called in (he was actually in Michigan). It was in my neighborhood.I was going to stay for a little while and then go to the movie, but I decided to just stay there. It was raining cats and dogs.

[Olney Blue]

36. Hi SharonRB!

:pals:

Nice to see you!

[Patsy Stone]

37. Hi!

Nice to see you for MJ Puppet Theater. Seein' as you called it and all. :hi:

[SharonRB]

41. Ohhhh, he IS going to do it?

I just knew it.

I came in in the middle of that horrid song.

[Patsy Stone]

In the opening,

when he teased the story, he said, "Cue the puppets!" :)

I hope Billy Joel sues.

[Patsy Stone]

34. VIDEO-Bush was Right- from Countdown -- Thanks, liveoaktx!

http://www.democraticunderground.com/discuss/duboard.php?az=show_mesg&forum=104&topic_id=5369861&mesg_id=5369861

[bleever]

64. liveoaktx rocks! I poured her a drink. nt

[Patsy Stone]

66. Thanks!

I'm lagging in the hostess duties. :)

[SharonRB]

68. Thanks for posting the link

I hadn't heard the beginning before. It's definitely a take off on We Didn't Start the Fire. Someone should send it to Billy Joel.

[SharonRB]

47. Comparing WWII to Iraq?

Give me a break!

[Patsy Stone]

48. 86 the Big Giant Head

My .02

[bleever]

52. Chris Daly: please don't let him start shouting, God.

He's coming across pretty calmly.

Phew.

[Olney Blue]

54. He came across very well.

He has a shouting problem?

[RevCheesehead]

55. Was that a Bleever shout-out?

I saw a "Testosteroni" Cable Car. :7

[bleever]

67. The San Francisco Treat.

:)

[RevCheesehead]

72. and the KOEB delight.

[Patsy Stone]

79. There's a famous bridge, or something, there... right?

:)

[bleever]

88. You have my word on it.

I saw it today!

:)

[tatia_s]

58. Do you think...

KO and Chris Daly were wearing the same suit?

~Tatiana

[Patsy Stone]

61. :) Could be...

Hi, tatiana! :hi:

[Patsy Stone]

69. What was that Gidge joke?

We expect Monica's videos to soon be available for download from where?

[bleever]

90. madam_novotini.com. nt

[Patsy Stone]

91. Thanks! n/t

[bleever]

70. Literally handheld.

:rofl:

[Patsy Stone]

73. All that snark, and Gidge.

A good night.

[Patsy Stone]

71. I volunteer to buy Jennifer a cheeseburger.

Jen, honey, EAT SOMETHING!

[RevCheesehead]

74. My SIL got me a Rush subscription last year for my birthday.

I still feel so - dirty. :puke:

[SharonRB]

76. Did she mean it as a joke or was she series?

[RevCheesehead]

89. To her, they were the same thing.

A not-funny joke, along with "you really should read his stuff, if only to get another point of view." I cancelled the subscription immediately, and asked them to refund the money to Tsunami relief.

Funny thing is, Rush is outsourcing his own website. The woman who answered was Indian, and called it the "Rush Lim-booo" newsletter. :)

[Patsy Stone]

81. Eeeew.

I know just how you feel. One day, I began receiving mail from the RNC because they bought my name on a list. Still showering a la Silkwood. :)

[CBHagman]

96. Guess what happened to me.

I wound up on the Christian Coalition's mailing list at one point, and out of the blue I got an offer for a long distance plan (I forget the name of the company), with the assurances that none of their money went to support gay causes. Now I'm on a lot of mailing lists, including for organizations related to human rights, civil rights, the Holocaust Museum, and public broadcasting, and the only group I figured would take the anti-gay stance was the CC.

I didn't sign up for the long distance plan, needless to say, and was never bothered again.

[tatia_s]

97. I heard about this sort of thing...

On the Majority Report earlier this year. They had a comedian on who taped his phone conversations with salespeople from this long distance company. Hilarious!

~Tatiana

[RevCheesehead]

98. Was it LoveLink?

I used to get that crap when I was pastor in North Carolina. They'd send it to all the churches. One of my parishoners apparently signed up, then told them to call our church. It took 3 days to get it through their heads that I was NOT going to change the church's long-distance plan, even if we did save $$.

I guess they didn't want us to get homo-germs. WWJC? (who would Jesus choose? the outcasts!)

[Patsy Stone]

99. I bought a set of those Iraq playing cards

as a gift for someone and USA Flags were the ones who did it. One RNC mailing actually contained an 8x10 of Shrub and Pickles. After I put it on my dartboard, I took great pleasure in sending it through the shredder.

Sorry it happened to you too. Yuck.

[Patsy Stone]

75. $49.95! Worst Person in the World indeed!

El Drugbo! "I see we found a new doctor!" :rofl:

Anyone hear Randi's caller who was hung up on when he called Druggie to ask if the money went to charity?

[Olney Blue]

77. Rush, spawn of Satan, worst person in the world!

[Patsy Stone]

82. LOL! "Gotta see a man about... some makeup!"

:rofl:

[WolverineDG]

92. The sign said "Ladies"

but he walked in anyway.... ;)

dg

[Muffstser]

83. Home in time for Michael Musto and Puppet Theatre!

Woo Hoo Hoo!

[SharonRB]

85. Michael got off, as it were

Such snark, MM!

[Patsy Stone]

87. Just adore him!

But he needs to ditch that shirt.
