Just wanted to let you know I added another linc to the blog roll. Our good friend Icepick has a new
joint called "The Open Cover" that you can check out from the blog roll.
Ice Ice Baby!
Michaleen Flynn: No patty-fingers, if you please. The proprieties at all times. Hold on to your hats
You inspired me...
ReplyDeleteAnd Carol Herman is still out there...
ReplyDeleteARod is a Trooper York fan.
ReplyDeleteApparently, unlike some other people, he doesn't hack into this blog to read what's being said about him.
Chip S, apparently not! Otherwise A-Rod would see what Troop really thinks about him!
ReplyDeleteThen again, maybe A-Rod is into that.
What he's into is Amazon portals.
ReplyDeleteMuscular chicks really do it for him. Especially if they're wearing Derek Jeter masks.
Evi--you beat me to it--actually I have generally enjoyed CH's comments--she really should have been a talking head on some network show--She has the remarkable to expand a single point into a novel. Never have so many words been used to get across one point.
ReplyDeleteRoger, My take is so many words to make a big fucking circle.
ReplyDeleteHave to admit I do miss my old comrade in arms AllenS--AllenS had the remarkable ability to say very important things in one sentence. However it is July and I am sure he is busier than a one legged man at an ass kicking contest on his farm.
ReplyDeleteNick--btw dude--congrats (not to you, mind you) but to your wife. Looks like she did a great job with her book.
ReplyDeleteWell OK--congrats to you for marrying her.
On that subject...nick, you mentioned before that your wife was something of a lib politically. Was she the commenter "leslyn" over at TOP?
ReplyDeleteNick (and ChipS)---say its not so, Nick.
ReplyDeleteOh, leslyn was ok for a lib IMO.
ReplyDeleteAllen S., the anti Carol Herman!
ReplyDeleteHe did have a way with word(s).
Evi--indeed--like using not more than 20 to make a point. :)
ReplyDeleteTrying to follow the thread of a Carol Herman comment is harder than trying to put socks on an octopus.
ReplyDeleteLet us journey back in time to the year 2000 - a simpler time, before evil bestrode the world, a time when men could find meaningful work and playful diversions.
ReplyDeleteYes, my friends, a time when grown men could spend time and resources launching pumpkins far down range and there was no clucking from the ivory tower.
Pumpkin away!
NOW I feel _dirty_.....
ReplyDeleteEspecially if they're wearing Derek Jeter masks.
ReplyDeleteShouldn't Titus be involved in this somehow?
Actually I was trying more for a Magnum PI meets CB4 kind of vibe. That's STABMASTER Icepick, and you can find me at the Big Assed Biscuit.
ReplyDeleteChipS, Absolutely not. My bride is not that liberal. On a 1-10 scale, w/ 10 being conservative, she's a 4 or 5. She's an elder in her Presbyterian Church so she's certainly not a secular progressive. She is a 7-8 on crime, having dealt w/ shitbirds for decades. My bride doesn't read blogs. It was weird when that leslyn showed up because it's a very unique name.
ReplyDeleteRoger, Thanks. I did marry up.
ReplyDeleteDerek Jeter is the Kevin Bacon of herpes.
ReplyDeleteMy wife doesn't read blogs. She thinks it is a big waste of time.
ReplyDeleteAnd she tells me that.
Often.
Old EBL: It will be hard for people like Jackson to deal with the outcome they sought. I suspect that an acquittal will provide them with the better material for future political enterprises.
ReplyDeleteRight. And Glenn Reynolds has been saying that for months. How about some originality Ann.
Your wife Troop, as usual makes some sense.
ReplyDeleteBut blogging is like smoking, hard to walk away from!
She doesn't have the patience for it but she will spend hours on Facebook or Instagram.
ReplyDeleteI guess it is what you like that determines how you spend your time on the internet.
Facebook is blogging, just a different form of it.
ReplyDelete"JimBob's pumpkin splattered good."
ReplyDelete"Not good as Earl's."
"I'll grant ya that."
"Here comes Jethro with the mother of all pumpkins."
"It!...it!...I swallered my chaw....it broke the caterpult!"
"Contest over."
"Now whatta we do?"
"Spitting contest?"
It's as if you were there, Ricpic!
ReplyDeleteNick--there was a great clip from St Ronald's presidency. He is sitting with Prime Minister Mulroney of Canada and they are waiting for their spouses. Reagan turns to Mulroney and says, "you know Brian--for a couple of dumb micks we really married up." Self depredation is certainly not one of the skills the current POTUS has.
ReplyDeleteIt's as if you were there, Ricpic!
ReplyDeleteRicpic looks out his window, sees the deep South but a punkin's throw away and envisions himself a poetry bridge to nowhere, with the spittin' image of SixtyG expectorantly waiting for him on the other side.
Thanks ricpic, in the midst of all the rumble, this is why I prefer blogs to facebook.
Wha'd I do?
ReplyDeleteAnd to think I was about to post a screed about how the Yanks are futureless, Mr. Gittes, futureless...but thought better of it. Whew, that was close.
Roger, I have learned if a person has self deprecating humor in them, they're probably ok. Ironically, one of the last comments I made @ TOP was that I have NEVER read ANY self deprecating humor from her.
ReplyDeleteI think Meade has caught pomposity from her. Like the clap or genital warts or something.
ReplyDeleteTeh stoopid, it is strong in that one...
