For some reason, I was thinking this was either Thursday or Friday. Too bad it turns out to be Wednesday; this working stuff is kind of annoying. I told Granny if she’d just get a job as a $5,000 an hour hooker, I could stay at home and take care of the doggies. And, hell, she’d only have to work a few hours a week. ‘Til then, I guess I better get off my ass and go to work.
‘Tis Wednesday, I’m awake, good :joe: and a very short day at work today. :banana: :banana:
I have to get home quickly today, because once again I am having difficulty with a delivery company.
I ordered some children’s books from Barnes and Nobel and they use a small, local shipper called Lasership. Lasership is great at posting the fact that they have tried to make a delivery. They do not leave notes on the door. They are also easy to talk to and very polite. They only thing Lasership doesn’t do is DELIVER the package. This is now the 4th day that they have promptly and politely assured me that they will deliver. They insist on a signature even though this is only $12. worth of books. They won’t leave it on the steps like Fedex. So, I wait and hope,

Now it looks like the FL Dems are setting up against a possible mail-in do-over vote. Apparently they’re concerned with potential inaccuracies in the voting, which would be a first for this state.
The concern, I mean.
:rofl2:
I’ll be here all week. Tip the bartenders, they work hard!
:rofl2: Kevin ….. I am going downstairs to “close Shop” and hopefully then come and get a few hours of sleep ,,, and still dark :banana: so I will say now G’Night, G’Day :yawn: I am trying to sleep “train” during S Miller’s and Ms Ranti hours but I better run and get “things” done…. :yawn: Cheers All.. I hope. :reaper: :dancers: A!I!V!
Wow, according to Wikipedia, Eliot Spitzer scored 1590 on his SAT, and was perfect on his LSAT. How can somebody so smart be so stupid?
Looks like our governor is resigning at 11:30.
I thought he might at least make it to Pi Day.
Stephanie has a couple of women on live today for her though not Boosler and Markoe 🙁 . I am not listening though. Maybe last hour. I thought she was running best ofs all week.
Too bad Maron is not hooked up with her folks so that he could do sub spots when she was away. Probably to edgy for them anyway and maybe he trashed their studios and their secret phone #s when he used the studio. I think he used her studio.
Yeah, he used her studio. He probably farted in her chair. Well, actually, that was probably Jim.
State senator Bruno, the leader of the Rethug majority is on TV talking about Spitzer. only problem: Bruno is under investigation for financial misdeeds. Rethugs have no shame.
You know, with Marc and Jim and Proops and his other pals down there like Patton Oswalt, Maron could be a helluva sub.
Of course, Stephie might end up being progtalk’s Wally Pipp so I can’t see that happening. That and Marc does not seem like Jones Radio material.

Sedition Radio working here.
Hey, can somebody try Sedition Radio, and let me know if it’s working? I can’t get to it from work, but I got a report that it was down. I think I’m gonna need volunteers to monitor it for me or something.
Seditionist Radio running thru WinAmp, Mort Sahl at the moment.
Is this some cheap stunt to drive traffic? :tap:
Thanks Vernon. It was probably an old report of it not working, from a couple weeks back. Though sometimes it gets stuck on one track and keeps repeating for some reason. I wish I could at least browse to the status page from work, but I can’t. Not much I can do ’til I get home from work, anyway, I guess.
No, Maron e-mailed me to tell me that somebody complained to him that it wasn’t working. I don’t normally check on it very often, so when it gets AFU, I don’t notice until somebody tells me.
Sometimes I think it’s more trouble than it’s worth.
:sammy:
Anyone remember or see this
Maron has guest hosted four episodes of “Late Night with Greg Kinnear
Not me.
i shoot people over to sedition radio from time to time.
they appreciate it being available.
i certainly do.
Alg. test in ten minutes! :smack:
My chem. prof. continues to not lecture because I guess we’ve already covered everything. I sill don’t know how to balance redox reaction under acidic or basic conditions. Very stressful. Oh, and my computer battery is at 15%
6 minutes and counting
good luck!
sedition radio working fine for me
Maron show won’t be the same without Roxie.
We’ll bring Maron a book though…with pic of Roxie and :cat:
Brian from Everett is on Sedition Radio T. :nod:
The link from Maron’s website is broken though…
No simulcast for me here, but for some of you lucky folks there is.
Thanks sblue, the problem was with the link on his site. I told him to change it. If somebody could just verify that this link works, I’d be most appreciative.
Yeah it opens iTunes if I click the listen menu.
But it doesn’t load the stream hotlink address.
It said that sedition rdio was taking too long to respond.
OK, can you try that again, please?

No test today. Instead it’ll be tomorrow. And I’ll be able to have notes! How great is that, huh? I don’t need them, but I don’t easily recognize trig. identities very well since I’m so new to them.
Worked fine, PJ
Good luck, Travis. Are these midterms?
Um, there’s about two weeks left until the final exam. :barf:
#31
link works good.
turned off AARgh broadcast when it opened )
Thanks Sue, thanks SJ.
Good luck with everything Travis. I know what a hassle it all is. When I start to complain about my job, I think back to my two years back in school and then, well, I still complain about my job, but school sucked too.
Experts: Don’t fear the weak dollar
Experts in what? What a load of bullshit!
The dollar drops, so crude oil prices go up, which drives inflation up, which causes crude oil prices to go up because the dollar is dropping, which causes everything to go up because everything is either delivered using oil or is made of oil like our pharmaceuticals and the chemical fertilizers we are using to kill off our rivers, lakes and oceans, which causes food prices to go up even further because now we have to import more food from countries like China that don’t control food quality to cover the food crops missing from our farms because farmers want to cash in on the fuel corn craze caused by higher crude oil prices caused by a plummetting dollar and a President who wants us all to be scared shitless about everything.
And “experts” say not to worry. I already figure I have to work until age 95 to afford to retire into a third or fourth career.
What, me worry?
Thanks PJ.
:paranoid: :omg: The Oh Shit Moment :omg: :paranoid:
Well I finally landed a job. I’ll be wotking at the Whole Foods in Devon Pa. Lot’s of granola types so I should fit in fairly well except being a techno-geeky granola type.

Pentagon Report on Saddam’s Iraq Censored?
ABC News’ Jonathan Karl Reports: The Bush Administration apparently does not want a U.S. military study that found no direct connection between Saddam Hussein and al Qaeda to get any attention. This morning, the Pentagon cancelled plans to send out a press release announcing the report’s release and will no longer make the report available online.

Hey, congrats, Andy. Being a granola geek is about as god as it gets, I think!
Thanks PJ and Druid, the job isn’t tech based or anything but I’ll get health insurance which I haven’t had in 12 years, and it’s right up the street from my smartcar dealer, if that ever shows up. Everyone I’ve met there genuinely seem really nice and Whole Foods appears to treat it’s people really well and they do a lot of work on poverty issues in the thirld world and right here locally, which is starting to look like the third world.
Working for a company you can feel good about, and working with and for good people is nice. So I hear.
Far be it for me to be judgmental, but this seems pretty fucked up.
PJ that last link worked great.
Thanks sblue. Too bad Maron will need to change his site link. Somebody will probably charge him an arm and a leg to do it.
PJ.Well maybe now is the time to offer him your services again!
I picked up a book for him today so when I hand it to him I will put in a good word for you :knit: :nod:
I’m sure he wouldn’t want to have to rely on a ‘stalker’ for anything.
Sign this if you can.
So the books that were supposed to be delivered by Lasership never came. Finally they called and said an employee, who lies in Brooklyn, would drop them off. He called, almost an hour ago, and said he was 1 minutes away.
If I call them, I have to sit an hear advertisements about how reliable they are, as I wait to tell them they suck.
sblueheron sblueheron I just lost everything as I was coping :doh:
…. I know 2 things I said.
.,The Book has not moved …I noticed that while I was exercising without realizing as my mind flashed on things we talked of….tears were flowing down my face. I have lost many friends and family, young and old … but I was more spiritual. Roxie, was a Spirit Sis, now like her Sharma — but there was a Connection.and although she Is Moving …I just miss her filling that special space here.
:pirate: :dancers: :fist: :knit: A!I!V! :dancers: :love: :gate:
Also thank you Again, SBluheron and Vernon for “hearing” and finding Rites of Passage.
John Kewwy baad!!
andy, I know folks that have gone to work for WF and may even look at it myself. It sounds fine although I think they are pretty staunch non-union. Good luck! I hope it is great.
sblue, I thought about that when I posted the dates. Glad you saw them. I know it will be sad. I wish I could have made it up there last year.
NC Blue, hope you noticed. I am letting all of my Beltway Buddies know.
The first half of Dan Abrams’ show tonight was nuts. Buchanan told a woman to shut up and Maddow :spank: him. Abrams totally lost control of the show.
Sue P , re 56 :rofl2: 😉 … :tap: A!I!V! I Made The Fire
:tommygun: Now were is my TEA :joe: :pirate: *poof*
Thanks Vern. Maybe I’ll give SEIU a call.
The end of he tale:
David, finally showed up with the books 15 minutes ago. He had taken the train from Manhattan and walked the mile between the nearest station and my house. I walked him to the nearest bus stop ’cause he didn’t know how to get back.
He was a very ice kid, but that’s a terrible thing to do to an employee. They should have put him in a cab. He won’t get home before 11PM. Really, they should have dropped the books in a mailbox.
andy, I did not mean that to be a downer. They seem to be a decent company and try to treat their people that way but are resistant to unions. I wish I could afford to shop there.
Good luck Travis :tongue:
The big chain grocery stores are mostly all unionized so the non union stores tend to pay completive wages and benefits.. Around here WalMart’s grocery dept causes the unions a lot of grief at negotiation time.. Considering the people in the checkout line on Saturday morning at the Kroger I really don’t think WalMart has a very big market share. so I think the Kroger management just uses WalMart as a pone in the game of chess they play with the union. :reaper: :reaper:
I think the very brief rise in the Dow yesterday was only to allow the ‘they” to get what ever was left of their money out .. The SBR Titanic is still floundering in high seas .. and the countries with the pumps to pull it out ( China and Russia) are laughing their heads off as the ‘they’ head for the boat deck while the :sheep: le think salvation is just another election away..( glub glub glub) :reaper: :reaper:
