Okay, time for the final push to the Hot Gates!

C'mon, Chris 'n' Jim, you KNOW the Muslims don't believe in any god!

Tea baggers complain that we are only publicizing the "nuttier" elements. Fair-enough. I challenge a self-proclaimed Tea Party member to call the show and have a rational discussion about their political/social views.

soooooo we all need to carry PAPERS now?

keith was brilliant

Wow, imagine that (tea party members critical of Obama). Who'd-a thunk it?

Max and Fred are in the car heading to Cali after locking Steph out of her lean-to. Drive, Max, drive!

Well, fortunately there's only 2 of us or I probably would have given in long ago and gotten a new machine.

269. I meant HONESTLY, not honesty, but either way, I'm STILL sick of Michele Bachman!

*******

AND, I got another sexy number! Spooky!

Suddenly transported back to In Living Color. Where's Homey da Clown & Fire MArshall Bill?

Paul I filled 3 triple loaders and 2 single loaders saturday and that was after doing 3 triple loaders on Wednesday

My back hurt so much that it was decided to get a new washing machine

And I've got a fan permanently pointed at the dishwasher's control panel to keep its computer from going crazy with the heat.

#263: I don't care which Kowalski it is, just so long as I get to slap a hippie!

Jesus Christ--I am really sick of Michele Bachmann. And she's giving Minnesota, along with Sarah Palin, such a bad name!

Honesty.

************

And thank you, Jim. You got my telepathic thought. I wanted you to SO MUCH do Clinton thanking Michele B. for going out with him, when I heard her ridiculous quote yesterday.

I've just gone back to lugging the clothes to the laundromat across the street then lug them back to the dryer at home (until that dies).

Was Rodney King beaten by police officers? Depends on how you look at it.
If you turn the tv sideways the blows are just bouncing off of him. And if you watch it backwards the sticks are flying off of him until he gets up and drives away.

Paul - more headaches, more costly repairs

Michelle Bachmann is a take-out bucket of deep-fried crazy.

"We must fight, sir! Fight, sir! Kill! Kill! Kill!"

Kent State was done by a republican ... and I have a feeling the tea baggers would have been those thinking that the kids were the "flithy hippies" who deserved it.
