I'm not an i-person. I don't have a single i-something. Those are for Democrats. I bought a Democrat LG Dishwasher and I'm about ta drag that mf'r out and take swings at it with a 10 penny hammer for fun then run over it with my truck then tie on to it wit ha chain and drag it back to the friggin store and leave it on their damn front step. It has gone from working brilliantly to working like a friggin crackhouse dishwasher in a little over 10 months or so. But it sure is quiet while it "doesnt" friggin work. Geezus...H Ima...beat that... 8)

I haven't had a dog for myself since I was in 5th grade and my basset hound "spanky" got nailed by a car at 50 mph on Hwy 1 near the nude beach at Bonney Doon while I was three feet away. He didn't get smooshed as much as just spun around five or six times. He bled out in the back seat of the VW hippy bug on the way to the vet as my mom shouted to put a stick or sumptin in his airway so he could breath better. Rememeber it like it was yesterday. He's burried under out ree at the house on the corner of Seabright Ave and Wood St. rip

After reading the new finish line "policy" I looked across my office at my finish line photo from IMMoo '02 with two week Thora carried like a football in my left arm and 4 yo Marley in a Madison-appropriate tye-dye shirt running holding my hand. I recall a particularly nasty spill on my bike early on in that race that shredded my legs and arms and resulted in quite a lot of blood. Wouldn't have finished that race if not for the promise of crossing the line with my girls. Security? Aren't we getting a bit self-important? That's a loss if you ask me. Oops, you didn't...

Not sure a pass, but its not his fight right now. Especially when the media is screaming that he's taking on too many battles at once. His budget is the one he has just proposed, not the one congress has been developing since May of last year. But in the scheme of things its a bill that is 5 months overdue to keep the government functioning. It is congress's bill and bipartisen pork. The earmaks are less in number and total $ than any other in 7 years. He does not have line-item authority. I think congress should be ashamed of themselves.

"An Omnibus bill is a single document that is accepted in a single vote by a legislature but contains amendments to a number of other laws or even many entirely new laws". A polite way of passing nearly 9000 earmarks. I agree, both parties in Congress choked on this one. As far as Obabama, this is/was a real opportunity lost to maintain support from centrists and voters who turned their back on the Republican party in the last election. The folks he peeled away are not pleased.

Do you know the similarity between a divorce in Kentucky and a tornado in Tennessee?

The WW is making cute lil sleepy noises. This is really funny cause when she's awake she is the silent dog. Never a bark out of her at all!

I'm saying that, although I think it sounds retarded, they seem to be doing it out of respect for the language. Al's just showing respect to her neighbors to the south :-D

How sweet of you to make her feel comfortable by trying to replicate her dialect. Just think how others may have simply mocked her.

I had a co-worker pal who was from a bit farther into Kentucky. She had a pretty thick accent. One day, she said something like, "I bought xx at the store because I had a coupon." But she with her accent, she pronounced it "q-pin". I asked her if she happened to have a "q-pin" for "tamp-ins."

We have many, many people who live in Kentucky working in my office. I ask them if there is a big box of shoes on the bridge so they can put some on when they come to OH.
