God created Sunday mornings for sleeping in and nursing hangovers. Since the doctor took away my booze I only get to sleep in but the pills he gave me help me do that so I guess it evens out.
I’m (probably) gonna mow the lawn this afternoon. I’ll post something later if I find anything worth talking about.
What’s on your agenda today?

I’m going to see my goddaughter in her high school musical. They’re doing “Anything Goes”. She has a lovely voice, and I’ve heard her sing many times, but this will be the first time I’ve seen her act, too. I know, I know, how does an atheist have a goddaughter? It’s all about trust. And I buy nice presents.
But I started my day having a good laugh reading this: http://www.nationalreview.com/blogs/print/299092
Have Republicans always been this funny, and I just missed it?
No, I’m pretty sure the Republicans weren’t always this funny, it’s just that the Democratic Party under Barack Obama is so dumbed down now that the jokes just write themselves.
I suspect Mark Steyn has always been funny. Can’t speak for all Republicans although my dad was a Republican and he was hilarious.
That reminds me. I have been thinking about the quote below from Dreams of My Father. Doesn’t it sound more like someone agonizing over coming out of the closet vs passing as straight?
reading that again, it sounds to me like she was trying to dump him!
the old it’s not you, it’s me…
enjoy enjoy
GloZell cracks me up
How about getting instantly drunk while not really intoxicating yourself?
Don’t know about a possible hangover, though. Or the benefits of this ‘invention’ for that matter.
Yet another hashtag opportunity for conservatives to have fun:

That’s too easy. As in, Obama’s #readytogo out of office. He’s #readytogo home.
I’d like to mow the yard, but it’s very soggy outside. If the sun comes out and things dry off a bit, I will. Otherwise later in the week will do. Instead, I’ll probably stay in and work. You know, because I’m a lazy business owner who only feeds off my slaving employees.
Down twinkles !
I was going to paint some patio furniture, but it looks like I might be stuck sitting in this chair with an ice pack for awhile. Got out of bed & instantly pulled my back out. How the hell does that happen?
Don’t you hate that? People always ask how you hurt yourself and I just want to make up a good story, like I was hand gliding in France or something. Instead I have to explain, “somehow i managed to stand up wrong.”
Yeah, I have a bum back, and sometimes have to explain walking around half bent over as “Um…I reached for something and twisted…..think I turned wrong.”
My sympathies cj.
I think I will make something up. I’m NOT in the mood for the “you don’t exercise enough, mom” lecture from my kids. Not in the mood at all.
Tell them you were trying one of the more difficult positions in the Kama Sutra.
That’ll shut ‘em up.
I tell my daughter I threw my back out shaving my legs. That takes care of the “why don’t you ever wear a dress when you have such nice ones” question, too.
I can’t even walk through my (small) bedroom without breaking something. You’d think I could figure out how to get from one side of the room to the other safely. I’m sorry to hear about your back.
Last year I broke my toe 3 times, wrenched my back twice and had some major damage to my right shoulder – just by being alive. Aging really stinks but it beats the alternative – most of the time.
That’s God’s way of telling you to stay in bed.
Quick as a wink too.I lost all last Summer from trying to raise a stuck window.
Ohhhh, I wish I was one of those attending the NY trial of Khalid Sheikh Mohammed. I’d be wearing the lowest cut blouse and shortest skirt I owned. And I’d be drawing blasphemous cartoons of Mohammed while I sat there.
This pig’s attorney is demanding that ALL the women in the courtroom dress in a “respectful” way so as not to offend this fucking mass murderer’s religious beliefs. She herself is wearing a hijab, and suggested that other women ought to do the same so as not to distract her client.
FUCK YOU, and your woman-hating precepts.
Oh, and the defendants are evidently being allowed to disrupt the proceedings to pray. Excuse me, but are catholic defendants allowed to stop everything in a courtroom and have communion?
Again, FUCK YOU. This is America, not Saudi Arabia. You can have whatever religion you want, bravo for you, but you adapt to our system and our culture, or you can get the fuck out.

I would add my reddest lipstick & highest heels too. That would make the court outfit perfect. If any American woman honors KSM’s attorney’s request her citizenship should be revoked on the spot.
What was she doing speaking in public? Where was her husband?
And I think I’d need to bring a bag of pork rinds along as a snack. Unbelievable.
I might wear sunglasses and bring in a service dog.
(as long as TehOnce isn’t there with a knife and fork)
I’d find a need to dig in my purse for a pen, and oops, have to dump tampons and pads all over.
ROFL! Omg, you made me spit out my coffee!
Distract her client? Like how? That’s his problem not the court’s. Lot’s of pervs wind up in court. The judge needs to tell her to knock it off then offer her a blindfold for him. The court is not set up to not offend lunatics including her.
Imagine if somebody brought a goat!
Remember, Obama said it was a choice to wear a hijab.
Actually, I believe he said women should have the *right* to wear a hijab (i.e., some places, like France, had forbade it to be worn in schools, etc) — it isn’t a choice. for them & I don’t believe that even he, asshole misogynistic pig that he is, used the word “choice” when talking about it.
Turns out Obama is an occupier.
Up Twinkles !
I’ve been having a great Sunday so far. I jumped up from bed and put on some black bean soup for use this week and freezing for later. Made a fresh veggie fritatta with the left overs, and some bacon, fresh berries, and coffee. Went for a bike ride for the third day in a row. Now I’m about to shower so hubby and I can go explore this beer bar in Broad Ripple we’ve been wanting to see. Dinner after, then maybe a nap before Mad Men. Sunday has been good to me so far.
You had me at bacon.
It’s in the soup, too. Come on over! We’ll take you to Broad Ripple with us.
Sounds like a great Sunday. How can a Sunday with bacon not be good?
Obama knew about bin Laden’s location since 2010.

What SNL decided not to air instead of a tired Fox-bashing cold open.
http://dailycaller.com/2012/05/06/scrapped-snl-skit-mocks-obama-for-taking-credit-over-bin-laden-killing/
That skit reads more like news reporting than satire — isn’t that pretty much what Obama is doing after all.
Too bad lies and exaggerations about Fox News aren’t funny and the truth about Obama is. They might really have a good show there if they weren’t so far up the Preezy’s ass.
another hard hitting political ad
http://pjmedia.com/tatler/2012/05/05/live-blog-of-khalid-shaikh-mohammed-911-gitmo-trial/
a site that is live blogging the gitmo trial. thought some would be interested
So Sarkozy is out, and Francois Hollande of the Socialist party is the new President.
We need Jadzia here to explain this turn of events.
Would you accept mine? Hollande come in first in the first round of voting. The far left immediately got in line and voted Hollande, considering that getting rid of Sarkozy was job 1, whereas Marine LePen of the far right National Front refused to endorse and said she’d ‘vote blanc’ (put a blank slip in the ballot box). Francois Bayrou, who got 9% in the center, endorsed Hollande.
It’s not so much that people are enamored of Hollande as they are sick of Sarko–or just enough of them to vote him out, anyway. He doesn’t have much of a record, his immigrant-bashing is deeply disturbing to many, and his showy vulgarity really rubbed people the wrong way. And he didn’t run a very good campaign, not like last time. Hollande ran a tortoise’s race and it payed off.
I think you did a good job.
That tweet is pretty damn funny.
In other news, no one got enough votes in Greece to win so it looks like the New Democracy Party (conservatives) & the Socialist Party (PASOK) will have to create a coalition to form a government & cut out Syriza (a coalition of radical leftist groups — and when you are considered radical in a country that regularly elects socialists, that’s pretty radical).
As long as it keeps that crazy Aleka Papariga from the Communist Party (KKE) out of power (KKE is part of Syriza), that’s a good thing, IMO. I tuned into the Greek channel this morning & I swear to God this is a transcript of the interview right after she voted:
I guess long-term planning isn’t her strong suit.
*facepalm*
That transcript sounds like a conversation with an owsie. Don’t ask complex questions like, do you have plans past next week.
The Underpants Gnomes have taken over.
The PS is not even all that radical. They’re a moderate, established party of governance, sort of what the Democrats used to be.
Tweeted that because of Biden saying the opposite, only to be corrected by the WH, and follow ups like this:
I’ve already been married twice. The next one is my third strike.
And the umpire looks none too friendly.
my Sunday morning
seeing pictures of my youngest grand daughter at her high school prom. She has always been the tomboy and seeing her all dressed up in a gown looking beautiful is a great Sunday treat.
This is the kid that just was inducted into the honor society this week.
Awww, congrats! My daughter is a senior, too.
seeing them grow up is beautiful and painful.
where is that little kid and who is this teenager who is almost grown up
this was on another site , dedicated to Elizabeth Warren
LOL!
Damnit, I won’t let facts get in the way. Republican’s are waging a war on women even though Obama and Dems are trying to do the very same thing. It’s not rocket science…. That’s right dude, it’s not rocket science, it’s called a big fat lie. Caught red handed, and his answer, you’re splitting hairs…. and student loans, student loans… LOL
He memorized his part and Cooper kept throwing him off. Then he keeps circling back to student loans. The message is so convoluted and nonsensical the Move On guy sounds like an idiot.
sounds like??

So we’re here because of dinosaur farts? Figures.
That stinks.
Though it all makes sense somehow.

What cowards.
Wondering what this is about: http://wtvr.com/2012/05/06/police-woman-in-burka-removed-from-obama-vcu-rally/

She gives me hope.
Amen, sister.
But please consider switching to decaf.
Red Bull gives you wings.
