Damn near noon on 4/20, and I’m not stoned. And not likely to be. How sad. But life goes on, so I reckon I’ll have to find some other way to celebrate Hitler’s birthday. At least it’s Friday, and a very nice one, weather-wise, from what I hear. In a shocking surprise, the weather is supposed to turn to crap for the weekend. I guess that gives me an excuse to sit around and read all day. Except I’d prefer to sit out in the sun and read. But you take what you get.
I got into a large kerfuffle with some family members (younger nieces/nephews) for this FB quip “I hereby nickname the shuttle Discovery ‘Seamus’. It looks like it’s having fun!” while watching the shuttle circling the DC on the back of a 747. My attempt to disarm the ‘mess’ yesterday by saying that I forgot the prime directive “Fuck ’em if they can’t take a joke!” didn’t fare much better.
Families can be a big pain. I try to stay away from most of my relatives. Makes for less kerfluffable living.
They brought it to me. I go out of my way to leave them to their unenlightened existence of ignunce but for some reason every now and then they want to engage or taunt. It is a little hard on me because I leave the big guns at home or else I would destroy them and familial harmony.
We all have a few of those in our family closet, Vern. Sympathies to you.
Well, the authority-challenging free speech-lov’in college-aged youth in my memory (who would be deemed terrorists today) aren’t what they used to be-

Maybe they could spend a weekend with Vernon’s relatives to toughen them up.
But if it’s excitement you’re seeking, you couldn’t do any better than to have to blow-up a cabin full of frozen cows

ABC’s Sunday show this am has a Dem man and woman and Thug man and woman. Keith is on. :bee:
Well, thanks, I guess. As much as I enjoyed them, I have been a little relieved that pj gave up the booblehead beat because it removed some of the temptations to look and I settled into a nice MSNBC rut on early weekend mornings once the broke out of a jail weekend/all the time. I already saw some rw pissant comment taking the requisite gratuitous shot at KO and Al Gore. I am trying to think of a good characterization for the big 3 booblehead men of easy virtue McCain, Graham, and LIEberman. Traumatic Triplets? Trollop Trio (too misogynist?), Closet Case Cadre (homophobic?)
Dukes of Douche?
I’m testing Cretins of Crap but I don’t have teabaggin’ rove/luntz $s to wire up ignunts.
