Can this possibly be true? Does anybody know anything about this?

I have a very bad feeling about this.

(Sully) Must've been how my buddy found it, passed it on. He knows I'd rag on him for reading Sully, so he didn't attribute. I guess even a blind squirrel finds an acorn every now and then.

We are well down the rabbit hole.

..for the inability to stay out of the Saloon. And it doesn't apply only to bebop. Of course, we reap the benefit, so I'm not complaining, simply observing. ;-)

Don't be upset w/ me. I tease/chide gently out of undue familiarity/love? Like I said, we reap the benefit, so don't stop on my account.

Does this work?

Bebop, et al. nice to see you.

How long until Leahy caves on his "I won't vote for Mukasey until he admits waterboarding is torture" position? Anyone?

...lest I be scolded as a nattering nabob of negativity - I'm quite certain he (Leahy) will surprise me this time.

I've fervently wished GG would get rid of Sharter24%. But after today's bit of LOL inanity, I see the value in keeping it around.

Comic relief? Or daily examples of RWA (forgive me for using the term) "thought"? Take your pick.

It's 90.1 here. Pledge drive, so I haven't ben listening. Can't stand the ads when I'm already a member. 8')

But it's a rare 70 (as opposed to 95) degree day, nice winds, so I'm off to fly a kite w/ my son.

Someday I'd like to help you stack some wood. You supply the Leffe Blonde?

Perhaps you could send the msg. around to the people RMP mentions in the interests of verifying its authenticity?

In any case, you've clearly gotten under somebody's skin. Be careful w/ this.

Can you determine, Glenn, what time of day it was (in Iraq) when you received the communication(s) from Col. Boyman?

Is anybody else incredibly frustrated by the fact that, out of respect for GG, this bein' his place and all, one can't really tee off on some of the more despicable trolls?

I believe it had to do with the ability to recognize improper grammar. Fundamentally, people who are abject nitwits are incapable of recognizing that they're abject nitwits. Why? Because they're abject nitwits, that's why! Apparently one of the defining characteristics of glaring stupidity is an inability to recognize same...

The concept is widely applicable once you recognize it.

Sibel Edmond's willing to defy "State Secrets" gag order...

...In fact, Beauchamp was blocking him from speaking to the media at that time...

Beauchamp was being blocked, not doing the blocking.

Didn't we do this previously? You mention a small bit of errata, and I chime in afterwards?

Didn't read your post through to the end...

i.e. Those sub-human brown-skinned devils are so all fired up w/ their religiosity that self-preservation means NOTHING to them. Hell, they EMBRACE the Apocalypse. You know, just like the fundies in the U.S.

Thanks for playin' defense for me whilst I was temporarily indisposed. If Mr. Neill had stuck w/ assh*le, he might've had an arguable point. But, racist Zionist? And, SUGARMAN!? Them's fightin' words...

"When you speak of Tsao-Tsao, Tsao-Tsao arrives."

So you can thank whoever it was this morning. The guy who didn't appreciate my NPod comment.

Quite the image - had me chuckling. G'night. I think I hear me mammy calling.

But can anyone explain exactly WHY Rocky is always referred to in such hushed and hallowed tones, befitting his patrician mantle of Seriousness and Stature? I'm so sick of his b.s. it makes me want to throw up.

And GG, I implore you to act accordingly in light of yesterday's thread.

You've posted many a terrific comment. At the risk of unintentionally disparaging some of your other contributions, I really dug your latest.

Glenn, in update II, I think both the hyperlinks point to Che Pas's question. Might be clearer if one pointed to your response.

What's with the snide remark?

Y'know I laugh everytime Shrter24% pipes up nowadays. Brings to mind a term some wag coined about the "Dread Pundit". Not ALWAYS true about every remark it makes, but "true enough".

"Self-pwn3d".

Man, you nailed it!

The other comment seemed a bit out of character for you. Not that I monitor everybody all that closely, but you do tend to gather general impressions if you visit here often enough. No harm, no foul, I hope.

My house is being attacked by roving bands of pirates! Smallish ones...

PDA taught me something yesterday, and I just realized it has even wider (perhaps Universal) applicablity.

I was almost tempted to comment in response to a recent remark. The willful obtuseness (is that a word?)involved in the deliberate misstatement of the point of GG's post, the use of inane strawmen, the calculated attempts to generate an emotional (vs. rational) response through the use of emotionally "loaded" phraseology... And then it stuck me.

Interaction with [TROLLS] = self-pwnage.

It makes everybody in here look like Suga.. I mean, Tsao-Tsao.

Just as long as I can figure them out...

I'm talkin' to you, Mr. Mathematical waveform. And you too, PDA!!

And on the "liberal" side, Billary and Nancy P. crack the top 5. Shows to go how far the world has canted rightward? I realize it's a conservative U.K. newspaper, but, Jeez.

I can already hear the wingers chattering about how GG wants to deprive the military of the First Amendment Freedoms they're fightin' for.

Via Josh and TPM, LOTS more on Qwest and the NSA pre 9/11

will vote NO on Mukasey...

Interaction w/ Sharter24% = self-pwnage

Wow, one of our esteemed forefathers would've been proud to make that speech!
