It’s 3:40 am, I need to get some sleep and I can’t find anything I want to write about.
I’m taking two Fukitol and going back to bed.
I ain’t making no promises for later.
PS: I hate it when I’m laying in bed drifting off to sleep and I hear the cat puking on the rug. (Apparently among her other charms, Catness is a puker.) Part of me wants to go to sleep and clean it up later and the other part is afraid I’ll forget and step in it when I wake up.
FML
Maybe I should get a dog to clean-up after the cat?
At least two stars were born at Sochi …..

Tara and Johnny kinda grew on you as the competition went on. They better than the “prime time” crew.
they absolutely were better than those prime timers. They knew when to stop talking. And their comments sounded more informed and sincere.
Excuse me. I’m gonna join Catness and puke on the rug here. Johnny did well, IMO. But about half of Tara’s could have as well been said by a Barbie. I suffered in silence for 2 hours until my honey had enough and exploded on Tara’s too frequent inane generalizations, ie: “The whole world celebrated with her when she won the gold in XXXX”. We Tivo everything sp fast-forwarded through their on-camera stints, but her voice overs were not good.
You must’ve had the opportunity to watch more than I. I admit I didn’t watch most of the days, but when I did watch, I thought Tara was way better than Sandra Bezic or whatever her name was. I wanted to throw things at the teevee screen when she was commenting.
Well now I’m wondering if that’s who it was we heard. We only watched tivoed action. (The FF key wears out on our remotes). Sounded like the intellectual depth of a 12 year old. We never did see her face or catch her name. I may owe Tara an apology.
For my gentle wife to say something critical, and even agree with me, was a tad unsettling.:-)
Finally ! /sarc

For the Knuckleheads. 😆
Where to buy $12,000 ball gowns is always helpful. I hear that Target has a nice selection.
How long until the Salon article endorsing this?
That is a hard sell, babies are so cute and innocent looking. On the other hand retro-active abortion of teenagers would probably be an easy sell. There have been times when I thought it would be a good idea.
But what is it with Progressive/Liberals and their need to kill their progeny? It is really unnatural on some primal level.
Not THEIR progeny. They’re fighting for the rights of poor people to make fewer new poor people. If only they could make it more popular in the South, they’d be happy.
Also, African-American abortions now exceed live births in NYC.

I have absolutely no problem with this as long as it applies only to their own families. In fact, I encourage it.
LOL. I remember not caring at around 9 p.m. on Nov. 4, 2008, in southern Oregon. Obama’s election did not move me. I was right about him. It’s too bad our nation was stupid enough to re-elect him.
I think we need to hold an intervention on The Spoon if he still feels that way.
I voted for Sarah in 2008 🙂 I remember when Obama won, “meh, I’ll give this blank slate guy a year”. It only took me 3 months to hit the streets with the Tea Party when BO was doubling down on the Bush stupids. There was no hope for change at that point, and it’s gotten worse.
I also voted for Sarah in 2008.
Me three.
Have they ever seen a photo of Bronco and Michelle’s “bungalow” in Chicago? They bought it when they were poor.
Or rather their friend bought it for them.
I never miss an opportunity to post this NYDN article from 2009, and still surprised it hasn’t been, uhm, scrubbed. It’s written based on public real estate records. If someone would like to reply and add @DavidOAtkins (which I freakin’ forgot to do), that would be fun 😀
Check out the mansions of our Hollywood stars, Atkins.
Have you seen pictures of any of Oprah’s many mansions?
Does Spoony realize how many of Yanukovich mansions could have been built from TAXPAYER money spent on Obama family vacations just in his first term?

Looks like my sign up “drive” is working! LOL
Lyn — see my message below — I’m the one who messed up. But thanks for your reply or I would have never figured it out.
Oh for the love of cheese! I’m an idiot — people are signing up; I was looking at the wrong pool administration page.
But we definitely need more, so please sign up if you haven’t!
I’m in !
I just wish We’re the Millers was nominated for something.
The Academy should add some categories, like best comedy, best action/adventure, etc.
I did , and I don’t know even half of the nominees 😉
Don’t worry — it isn’t based on best performance/artistry it’s based on best “buzz” anyway. 🙂
I’ve never done this before – do I need to create a user account then?
Ok, picked stuff, mostly at random. LOL. At least I have better odds of winning this than the Powerball
Yes, you have to create an account — but it’s free.
I’m in. I probably studied longer for that than my licensing exam.
Doesn’t recognize user nameTCH2014. ¿Que paso?
That is the pool name. You have to create your own username.
Duh
Is this multiple guess because I have not been to a movie in five years. I can walk to the local theatre so it is not like they have to entice me with free parking so I do not notice the $15 ticket. Just not that interested.
I don’t go to the movies very often. I tend to wait for the redbox release, so I’d be taking a stab in the dark. I’d definitely qualify as a lofo voter!
“Dallas Buyers Club” is the only one I’ve seen. I also wait for DVDs or streaming.
LOL, I voted like a LoFo too. The movies I see usually show up at the Razzies 😀
I also don’t pay attention to Hollywood so I wouldn’t know what to vote for. I used to keep up on Movies when my kids were younger and I had to parentally control what they saw. My son snuck out and saw “Saw” and he stopped watching movies altogether after that including “Harry Potter”. I go to the Thursday night movie series at the art museum. Right now they are showing Italian movies from the 40’s and 50’s and they are great movies. A little communist leaning but still the visuals and characters are great and they are far less sexist than current Hollywood movies. I did see “Frozen” last week and enjoyed it. I was surprised that the theater was packed even though that movie came out at Thanksgiving.
If they sold C$NT T-Shirts, they’d make more from Dems.
Nice!

God help this country in the future. responsibility for your own actions is no longer a requirement

something we should pay attention to
I realize this is outside the New York/DC frame of reference but check out the Gates Foundation. Warren Buffet and Bill Gates who took turns being the richest man in the world for many years give billions to various causes through the foundation.
Also is Myerson implying the government does a good job of supporting socially optimal investments? NO the party who runs government does a great job of directing graft and pay offs to their cronies. If anything trickles down to the poor it’s a miracle.
Today is my birthday. I got a card from my husband saying, in part, the following:
Inside this sweet, mushy, lovely sentiment is an instructor contact card, and a certificate for some advanced courses at Alamo Tactical and the brand new gun of my choice. Damn, but that man knows me so well. 🙂
Happy Birthday WMCB! Sounds like a great gift.
Happy Birthday WMCB!!!!!
And how awesome is that gift!!!!
Whatcha gonna get? 🙂
A very happy birthday !!!
Go get yourself a really great gift…
Many returns of the day
Happy Birthday!!
Happy Birthday! Hope you are having a great day, wmcb.
Fantastic! And happy birthday!
Happy bday! Now have some fun shopping for brass!
Felicitations!
I wasn’t disappointed. I love my country but I don’t feel the need for us to win everything.
Just another symbol of Omerika’s decline, she grumbled gloomily.
Well if they love him so much why don’t they catch the next flight to Venezuela?
How brave of them to demonstrate so recklessly in that well-known danger zone.

he is going away
I wonder if CNN signed Jay Leno.
I hope they don’t hire Russell Brand.
Wash your mouth out!
I guess Americans don’t like being sneered at by smarmy Brits.
I would not buy a Jaquar from him
That and the fact that he’s looking bad regarding the phone hacking scandal in the UK. Looking like his previous exploits are catching up with him.
What was CNN thinking when they hired a used shitbag to replace Larry King?
Anything would be an improvement?
Because of my newly acquired Netflix addiction I noticed something that I had never considered. Watched the 13 episodes of Hemlock Grove( An original series sort of like Twilight meets American Horror with an interesting twist on the love angle) over two days.— Credits are a very strange thing. A 50 minute show spends 2 to 3 of those with their own names splattered across the screen. Why would I care who the executive producers are. Find it peculiar as Hollywood so often aligns itself with what borders on communism and one would think that such homage would be an anathema. Never took much notice of it before but had also never binge watched anything. When I actually pondered it seemed like a very strange tradition.
When they say “you didn’t build that”, they mean us peasants. Not them. They’re special snowflakes.
He’s probably never been to Walmart either:
Baaaaazing!
LOL. Best part, they have no idea how far removed they are from the people.
