well, anyway, my hats off to you, or would be, if I owned a hat.

If you catch cold, don't blame totoro! Most of your body heat escapes through your skull, and it's the middle of winter.

Hypothermia can cause irritability, which can cause you to forget that "Comments" can sometimes be a hard place to make yourself understood. Typing "conversationally" as it were is hard for a lot of people, I'm certainly guilty of some pretty obtuse ejaculations in my time. I'm sure that whatever point Mr. totoro wishes to moot or bruit it will become clearer of the course of his comments. And won't we be the richer for each and every one? I think so, but I keep my head covered and warm.

This Obama quote has been met with eerie silence:

Man, where you been? That Obama quote was met with the kind of noise I hear when a raccoon gets into my chickenhouse. You can start at Hullabaloo. And go on the links from there, everybody is screaming about it, right-pitched screams and left-pitched screams. If you don't know what Hullabaloo is, well, you're just listening without hearing. Don't you know the words of the prophets are written on the subway walls, tenement halls, and whipered in the Blog, Hullabaloo? Man, they is over there writing songs that voices never share! No one dares!

Comment away, my friend! With each comment, obtusity (or should that be obtusiveness or obtusuosity?) is redelineated by acuity. Hell, we've all got an angle! And only squares have the right angles, so come along and triangulate with the rest of the ungulates. You ever herd of ungulates?

Remember, in addition to the public's metathesiophobia, It's not unreasonable that Obama might be hindered by the prevalent sinistrophobia, too.

So I'll be looking forward to whatever you've got to say. It'll add to the disco.

between Phobialist.com and Yiddishkeit.com you can express almost anything. Anything political, at least.

Let me tell you something about comments, totoro. I once read the stupidest, most inane and insulting comment ever. Naturally I replied in no uncertain terms, having already decided that whoever wrote that comment was the worst kind of dolt, someone I didn't care if I insulted, cause I never wanted to hear from them again. Wanting to make sure my reply would tan the right hide, I checked to see which fool wrote such dreck, amounting to (as I put it) "redundant persiflage, redolent of hackery and hetaerism, entirely the work of an inebriated and spineless invertabrate"

Turns out, I was replying to my own comment.

Although it's been great, and I've learned alot, I've been ordered back to my post in the War on Drugs. I'm involved in a nasty fire-fight with an insurgent eighth-ounce spotted in the area. One blast from my smart-bhong oughtta take those commies out!

BTW where's be-bop-o? Is he alright?

Look I don't care what you say, that idiot had it coming. I shoulda punched him out, and I will to, if I get the chance!

And don't try and stop me. Oh BTW I think I know you! Is your first name "Innocent"?

diction when I say that this post, Glenn, is your most heart rendering, ever.

What am I supposed to be frightened of, I'm going to get a visit from the FBI for calling grammy twice a week?

Listen Anon, they're not listening to see what you are doing wrong. They are listening to see what you are doing right! And that's actually a whole lot worse.

Our entire political process is becoming more and more like a giant, nationwide production of Mel Brooks' "The Producers"!

As the politicians, who cannot bring themselves to admit they will never deliver on their promises, each tries to appear either crazier or more incompetent that the other, hoping if they fail miserably, the finalty of the failure will prevent a final accounting. The Republican candidates especially.

If you do any contracting for the government get your immunity from prosecution, hell, and investigation or any oversight for that matter at all, written in to the original purchase agreement. Avoid these embarrassing and costly contremps, and break the law with impunity.

Many of you think you people like me should not be listened too. So be it, thats your right. Just felt I needed to speak. Just something to think about.

I don't think that, and I won't put up with anyone who says I do. Cause I don't.

With the endorsement of Obama by Thrasher, my cogitations concerning who will be the beneficiary of my electoral nod is as good as a wink to a blind horse.

Thrasher, you have made a good choice, good I do better than emulate it?

I have land line. I never get telemarketer calls.

I guess you're calling me a liar again.

Stop the bickering and if either of you knows how to stop the telemarketing calls on my land line, please tell!

In spite of the fact that the line is busy almost all day with a dial-up connection, as soon as it's down, the telemarketers call. Anyway, if you know, please tell.

...laws and available ways of blocking calls to land mine phone services.

Any information on that would be greatly appreciated also.

Get a cell phone and DSL and drop the land line,

Right, of course, but still, I don't think I have made,(or received from "real people") a single call on that land line in over a year, and still, the second it goes off line, telemarketers call. I was hoping a land mine in the land line would provide some protection, but I'm gonna go UN conventions, in case I get an international call. We've all gotta do our part. Thanks.
