You hit the nail on the head. Actually that was my magic number. I figured if I could drink that many and stay sober, then I was a beer drinker. Never got past 6 thought. 🙂
You’d fit in real well with an organization I read about once called the Olverbundet, started by a group of science fiction fans way back in the early days of fandom. Their stated goal was to rid the world of beer by drinking it down.
I have the Diva Dogs home with me and they are snoozing away. It is so nice to have the girls home. I guess I have to decide on something to eat as I have not eaten all day.
LOL They were. They danced around like two nuts. I found out they forgot to put them together and Bette chewed her way through to another kennel. LOL She hates to be alone. I will make sure next time to leave instructions they are kenneled together.
I cannot believe that they put them together two years ago when they had surgery and seperated them this time. I guess they were over booked on big kennels.
LOL well, I have done a new dairy, the podcast this amd and a new design. I also did an email to all of the Williamons County Democrats with all the candidates running for office in the state of Texas. I guess that is a slack day for me. LOL
Anyways… my friend Katie who was arrested in DC recently has returned briefly (she now has a job with National CP in DC) and offered to do the show if no one else wanted to so I emailed back saying that I’d love to go on with her (gives me a chance to see her again) and I think we made a good team last time. I’ll let ya all know.
That sounds wonderful DamnitJ. I think you’d do very well. Great that CP is getting this good publicity.
Hi, Refinish (and others, too) but I have a question for RF: What do your Divas look like? I guess others here know, but I don’t. Ever show their pictures? Any t-shirt with the Divas making political statements?
Not as wet as usual. I think the haircut first sort of drove him down a little bit. Also with less hair, there was less to wash, so it went pretty fast.
He’s in more of a slackerly mood than I am after all of that. 🙂
No I’d never break George’s spirit. I think it’s more he knows he’s getting a bath after the haircut and he just goes ahead and accepts it. He did enough squirming during the haircut.
So I’m sure everybody already asked you about all the political stuff and the social stuff from Vegas but that’s okay ’cause I just want to know about the dirty-doings.
Well right now we have the Stanley Cup Finals – the last team who won the Eastern Conference and Western Confere are fighting it out. The Play offs are where 8 teams in each conf fight it out for the top spot to compete with the final team for the Cup.
Hextall Scores a Playoff Goal: Hextall made NHL history a second time when he became the first goaltender to score a goal in a Stanley Cup playoff game. He picked up the goal with 1:02 remaining in Game 5 of Philadelphia’s first-round playoff series at Washington on April 11, 1989. This time, Hextall shot the puck 180 feet into the open net in an 8-5 win over the Capitals. The scene began to unfold when the Flyers’ Jeff Chychrun was penalized with 2:33 remaining and Philadelphia leading 7-5. Suddenly shorthanded, the Flyers fought off Washington’s power play until the Capitals pulled goaltender Pete Peeters with nearly two minutes remaining. Playing the point, Washington’s Scott Stevens dumped the puck behind the net to keep the pressure on the Flyers. Hextall picked up the puck near the right goalpost, turned and lifted it the down length of the ice. Since the Flyers were shorthanded, there was no risk of an icing call. With perfect precision, the puck hit the center of the net. Hextall’s goal sealed a win that gave Philadelphia a 3-2 series lead. The Flyers went on to win the series in six games.
Pour me something cold and keep it coming.
cold is the only thing I have on hand.
I think I’ll just sit here with that cold glass balancing on my forehead for a while . . .
I’ll join you Omir. It’s been a long day and I could use 27 beers.
Why 27?
I know, I know, because 31 would be too many and 23 would be too few.
You hit the nail on the head. Actually that was my magic number. I figured if I could drink that many and stay sober, then I was a beer drinker. Never got past 6 thought. 🙂
Everyone should have a goal to strive for. 🙂
You’d fit in real well with an organization I read about once called the Olverbundet, started by a group of science fiction fans way back in the early days of fandom. Their stated goal was to rid the world of beer by drinking it down.
A never ending cycle I would be happy to join. 🙂
Beautiful picture!!!!!
Now that’s one big woody!! 😉
visiting the redwood forests.
But wider is not always better. 🙂
no there’s a formula
I see a fine conversation thread had emerged from your wonderful photo Andi!
at a level commensurate with the high moral fiber of the denizens of the FBC. IOW, the gutter looks like from here.
Makes a person feel comfortable … 🙂
How was your day?
SEe? the Jesus’ Spokesperson from saturday was RIGHT!!! I am going to hell.
Whew! Thought I might be going to that “other” place… the DMV!
and buy ourselves a very nice condo — with a big ice-maker and large air conditioner.
Yeah, we’d buy all that crap and wouldn’t yuou know it – hell would freeze over. 🙂
that there’d be more ice for your Gawd-Awful Pastel Colored Drinks™
Smithsonian gemstone/fossil collection and Bruins hockey puck Optional.
the fossil collection might be optional but the hockey puck is definitely required.
Even the ice and lime wedge are sublimi… subliman… are suggestive and stragetically placed themselves. 🙂
smutty conversation is like drinking fine wine… it’s great till you stand up quickly : )
You watching?
I’m listening. 🙂 Wesley is running back and forth with updates.
I have the Diva Dogs home with me and they are snoozing away. It is so nice to have the girls home. I guess I have to decide on something to eat as I have not eaten all day.
Now go get something to eat!
(and thanks for the compliment on the picture)
YW and I will. I will probably take myself out for dinner as it is the last night of my vacation or I might just order pizza in.
I’m sure they were as happy as could be to see you.
LOL They were. They danced around like two nuts. I found out they forgot to put them together and Bette chewed her way through to another kennel. LOL She hates to be alone. I will make sure next time to leave instructions they are kenneled together.
Poor thing was probably wondering what the hell was going on.
I cannot believe that they put them together two years ago when they had surgery and seperated them this time. I guess they were over booked on big kennels.
They probably just weren’t paying attention.
So today is your last day of vacation? Slack. 🙂
LOL well, I have done a new dairy, the podcast this amd and a new design. I also did an email to all of the Williamons County Democrats with all the candidates running for office in the state of Texas. I guess that is a slack day for me. LOL
Hey there…
Medea Benjamin co-founder of CodePink will be in Portland and a certain radio show is interviewing her and a local Portlander from CodePink. 😀
Anyways… my friend Katie who was arrested in DC recently has returned briefly (she now has a job with National CP in DC) and offered to do the show if no one else wanted to so I emailed back saying that I’d love to go on with her (gives me a chance to see her again) and I think we made a good team last time. I’ll let ya all know.
So you must be the radio star who killed video. 😉
Nope. No killing. I’m a peace activist 🙂
sounds great!!!!!
Let us know when and where so I can siphon it up and share it out.
I’ve been on a few times but as a call in. Was on today even.
Thanks OMIR. Katie hasn’t checked her email. She has soooooooooooo mcuh to share. I just want the op to see and hug her 🙂
Plus it’d be nice to be able to pass on Jeffersoniandemocrats kind words to Medea and CodePink.
I’ll let ya know for sure.
That sounds wonderful DamnitJ. I think you’d do very well. Great that CP is getting this good publicity.
Hi, Refinish (and others, too) but I have a question for RF: What do your Divas look like? I guess others here know, but I don’t. Ever show their pictures? Any t-shirt with the Divas making political statements?
How ya doing?
Here’s a link to some pix of the Diva Dogs refinish posted a while back.
Thanks! You all are always prepared!
… as knowing refinish posted them once and how to use the search function combined. 🙂
— if I never slept I’d time to keep track of everything in the universe, too.
I had a good reason for last night … plus being out of it and grumpy all day is a good defence against having to be nice to coworkers … 🙂
I’ve been that way for years and I’ve never needed some paltry excuse lack of sleep to pull it off.
Wait a minute … you don’t have coworkers!
I guess I need external niceness-demotivators … maybe w/ more practice I will be able to do it at will … 🙂
I have customers. And I have dogs. And nothing ever gets in the way of my crankiness.
I guess I need external niceness-demotivators
You’ll just have to give up some of the Canadian-ness (or maybe hang around with Quebecers more).
I’m too nice and it’s a detriment. I’ve gotta start being nasty to people.
They are good looking girls!
I was pretty sure these weren’t the Divas
Not The Divas
How’s everybody in the cafe tonight?
Forget about us … how’s George?
George is pissed and hairy 🙂
Well he’s not as hairy anymore. 🙂
Regardless, he’s got one mean and nasty hairy eyeball to give you 🙂
Yeah he did for awhile, but he’s the same as me. He can’t stay mad for long.
Ahhh, he’s not a Scorpio then. 🙂 He’s just so cute… but he’s even cuter when he’s upset and wet. 🙂
The great thing about him after a bath is his running around and rubbing his head on the couch. He gets real hyper about a bath.
Doesn’t everyond do that?? 🙂
Yeah I’ve always found drying my head on the couch after a shampoo adds volume. 🙂
Hi Olivia. He’s fine. He’s all forgiving now and back to his old self. I’m a little bit worn for the wear.
What about these playoffs? 🙂
That’s good … he did look a little less angry in that last photo on your b!
How wet did you get today in George’s bath?
Not as wet as usual. I think the haircut first sort of drove him down a little bit. Also with less hair, there was less to wash, so it went pretty fast.
He’s in more of a slackerly mood than I am after all of that. 🙂
You mean you broke his spirit right off w/ the clippers? 🙂
No I’d never break George’s spirit. I think it’s more he knows he’s getting a bath after the haircut and he just goes ahead and accepts it. He did enough squirming during the haircut.
Sounds like those awful right-wing parenting types! Is this how you treat your furfolk?
No I wouldn’t do that. Anyway George in his old age is still fiesty. 🙂
As you can see, my fingers are moving S l o w l y yy tonight, or I woulen’t even have posted that!
OK all you hockey fans, I’ve got a question.
Who is the only goalie to ever score a goal in the Stanley.
Unfair. You know Olivia’s got all the hockey stats memorized.
Hi Mary. I’ve found in my quest for Canadianiness I have to learn these things.
How was your day?
And I was wrong (I guess), Janet knew it!
My day was very busy. I’m glad it’s over.
Nopers, I don’t know.
It seems like you’ve been running pretty steady since the end of last week.
You need to slack.
So I’m sure everybody already asked you about all the political stuff and the social stuff from Vegas but that’s okay ’cause I just want to know about the dirty-doings.
After catching up on the goings on here, I see no point in talking about any part of it.
How was your weekend?
okay, no vegas dirty-doings, no boring person weekend.
Maybe we need a book diary — since you’re not around on weekends I don’t get to talk about books anymore.
but if you post one I’d be happy to talk books with you.
MARY!!!! So glad you’re back!
One thing I’d like to know about your trip to Vegas…
Did you catch the Blue Man Group? 🙂
that is, I must not have.
Oh it’s a great group of 3 guys in various cities who do social and some what political … well it’s hard to explain.
bluemangroup.com
None of the speak. My son LOVED the show – it’s very … interactive.
nah, I’m too lazy — I’ll just save it for effingham.
What did that f-ing ham do now?
I thought you’d be burping the baby. 🙂
An Islander Netminder got credited with one. Billy Smith.
Nevermind I’m wrong… he was the first goalie to get a goal.
Evegeni Nabakov of San Jose got one in, too.
That’s not who I’ve got down.
It was Ron Hextall in 1987.
I forgot where I found that, but I wrote it down as soon as I saw it. 🙂
ACKKKK Hextall
But that was a playoff game not a Stanley Cup Final game…
ACKKKKKKKKKKKKKKK I hurt my brain.
What’s the difference? I’ve got to learn these things. 🙂
Well right now we have the Stanley Cup Finals – the last team who won the Eastern Conference and Western Confere are fighting it out. The Play offs are where 8 teams in each conf fight it out for the top spot to compete with the final team for the Cup.
Brain still hruts.
Now is that Olivia’s memorix or is it goggle. 🙂
And then I googled his page stats to check.
Edmonton’s ahead!!! Go Canada!!!
I’m hoping this goes to game seven : )
It was Carolina… nevermind ;/
Freakin’ Flyers! 🙂
Playoff game or SCF??
Here’s the p-by-p:
See I still have a lot to learn. Thank you.
Aha! Thanks so much Olivia!!! You rock!
I found a photo of some of us messing around in the pond on the big Green Guy himself.
Looks like a lot of fun.
I’ve got to run and grab something to eat.
Be back in awhile.
24/7 lounge opened.
