Welcome to the Froggy Bottom Happy Hour Café! Newcomers and lurkers feel free to introduce yourselves. You bar regulars jump in.
First beer is on us.
It’s about time somebody opened Happy Hour.
Where is everybody today? Do people out there actually have a RL?
I’m here.
There’s a massive war going on over at dKos, courtesy of MSOC. And I’ve lost money in poker today because of a bunch of numbskulls getting lucky on the river.
Other than that, I’m just dandy.
and put a link up in the old cafe. I was too afraid to read the comments though…….it’s pretty bad huh?
Hi Tracy. I was saying I saw your link and went with it. It’s probably a blood bath over there now.
I couldn’t have thought of a better way to phrase it.
but didn’t comment yet because having Jarheads on the Supreme court is so damned depressing for me still…..God knows what’s next with that! And I don’t mind Jarheads all together…..but on my Supreme Court?
Yeah. Sometimes I wish Armando had just gone away for good. He never, ever helps make any situation better.
though and I’m rolling on the damned floor. Why can’t I fight like that….that’s so funny everybody forgot to scream! Maybe Armando needs to get some exercise for emotional well being and peeder’s ability to get laid by girls is being strongly questioned as well.
It’s frustrating.
I don’t understand why Kos backs this guy up. Armando, IMO, is the single biggest cancer on Daily Kos. I don’t give a damn about his legal knowledge because all he ever does is be a complete fucktard to anyone who doesn’t agree with him.
One of his comebacks to someone’s comment to stop was, “And who are you?” The guy’s ego is out of control.
I read something awhile back where he was pissed about someone accusing him on Booman of drinking and blogging and he said that he had proof that people here blog under the influence……it cracked me up totally. I thought that maybe just to be a smart ass tonight I would post, Armando……just step away from the martini. He would fly to Alabama in the dead of night though and kill me in my sleep. I like to think I pick my battles a little more thoughtfully than that and I want to see my grandchildren.
Is blogging under the influence frowned upon? Because, well…um.
being under the influence was part of blogging here ;)!
You mean it’s not! Damn no wonder I never understand what’s going on. π
I tried again yesterday posting a dairy at Daily Kos and I never will again. The whole damn site is f’d up if you ask me. I had people complaining because I called Kay Bailey hutchison a bitch. They said I was being sexist. I had one person compare me to Rush. As far as I am concerned, Daily Kos does not exist!!!
I get used to how respectful everybody is here most of the time. Then I go post a diary over there sometimes and someone tells me to go fuck myself and it freaks me out until I remember where I am.
lol!!!!
How are you feeling Refinish?
I am feeling better thank you!!!!
It must have been from someone calling you rush that got the blood to boiling that made you feel better. π
LOL I was ready to kick them in the ass!!!!
I’ve been so wrapped up in SN’s visit that I didn’t realize you’ve been sick. So sorry that you were feeling bad but very happy that you are feeling better.
Thank you!!!!!
Enjoy SN’s visit!!!! I am sure you are having a blast. I want to see lots of pictures. I will check the pond for those I am sure you have already posted. LOL
I don’t. If the blogosphere is a movement, Armando is the one person who sets it back the most because he is the personification of the ‘angry’ part of the ‘angry left’ meme, even if he says he is a centrist.
I’m going to write a post regarding the matter in the next open thread, simply because it won’t get read in MSOC’s diary. Should be interesting.
Young Skywalker!
Gonna need it. It’ll be interesting to see how many troll ratings I earn.
or totally crazy … maybe a bit of both … Good luck! π
to post now too…….MLW will be getting some traffic tonight! He’s swinging a bat wildly at the flapping dove.
High Plains Drifter and then informed him that he was Largo now! Wow……I smell popcorn……with butter!
I think I’m alcohol deficient to really track all this……..where’s the Vodka!
You can give me the updates … I can’t keep up either Tracy.
I blog under the influence of wine or absolute every chance I get. LOL When I don’t have them it is caffiene and nicotine and the pure love of life and my fellow froggies!!!!!
Hi Psi. I saw where tracy had mentioned it and saw over 600 comments made. I bookmarked it because it’s so long.
Sorry you lost at poker. Don’t play it myself.
Yeah. I hate the river.
Lucky for me, this is money given to me by the site where I play from, so it didn’t cost me anything. π
It’s really hot and humid here today so just trying to keep cool.
How’s things w/ everyone else?
Hi Olivia. Hot and humid here also. Good staying in weather.
Other than trying to stay cool, what cha been doing?
Eating chocolate ice cream … π
How ’bout you?
Made a new batch that’s in the freezer. I’ll dig into that tonight.
I did some yard work today until it got too hot and other than that just napping.
What kind?
Chocolate Almond Coconut. Just a taste before I put it in the freezer and I think it’s going to be good. π
I love coconut … and almonds … and chocolate!!! I wished I lived next door — I’d even help out w/ the lawn in exchange for some of that sweet elixir. π
I’ll tell you what. If we ever live next door, you can do the lawn, while I supervise, and I’ll supply you with all the chocolate almond coconut ice cream you’ll ever want. π
How big is this lawn? And ah, you don’t get snow right? π
Actually I don’t know the lawn size. If I had to do it with a push mower, it would take all day. Riding lawn mower takes me about an hour.
Snow, what’s that. π
Does the grass grow all year? Or does it have a dormant stage …
With global warming coming I think you might have a year round job. Right now though, from Nov until Apr it’s kind of dormant.
I’m not just talking mowing the lawn though. Heck for the best ice cream in the world, we’re talking weed eating (snake fighting) and flower beds. But just think, our growing season is a lot longer than your, so there would be flowers and flowers and flowers.
You’ve got new and wonderful flowers that I don’t have so that would be neat … and while I don’t mind snakes not sure about the alligators …
Btw, the Lawrence Welk show is on right now … LOL!
I had some vintage NY pizza. Which, to say the least, is better than anything that Philly might have to offer. π
I had a friend that grew up in Jersey and he always told me there is no pizza like Jersey pizza.
What toppings do you get on it?
Pepperoni, the only way to go.
And I lost the rest of my money on the river. Again.
Great luck last night, horrible luck tonight. I think the lesson I should learn is to cash out while I’m ahead.
Yeah but if you always quit when your ahead, how would you know that if you didn’t keep playing you wouldn’t have won more.
You have to loose that money to know that you should have quit while you’re ahead.
True. Very true.
Anyways, back to reading the latest fight on dKos.
See ya.
and I’ve been moping ’cause it was so much fun having her here.
Yee Haw Andi is here. That’s a great picture and trust me I check out the toe nails for paint. π
I’ve got a better one of SN and Sniff but I’m saving it for when maryb is around.
::subliminal::Chicago October 7::subliminal::
::subliminal::Chicago October 7 – Nope::subliminal::
You know SN or you will have to write a diary about this.
Your ‘nope’ is not accepted. We are not giving up on our opportunity to spoil your mercilessly.
and he said hey, that’s SN
That would really please her — she told how smitten she was with him.
Hey, they don’t look as old as I thought! π
Ah, we fooled you — we hid our walkers.
So are you going to give us some more deets? What did you guys get up to?
I haven’t checked but I believe I’m still 5’2-1/2″.
::hangs head::
We talked, went for a walk, ate, talked, went for another walk, ate some more, visited the local tourist trap, talked, ate, talked, ate, talked …
(Oh and there was a significant amount of dog petting mixed in — the dogs thought she was just swell.)
Sounds like a great time.
She’s 5’7″ but I think tall so it wasn’t much of a difference.
A giantess … π
When’s the next BooTribber visiting … and is it Indy?
Ya’ll are tiny little things aren’t ya?
And you’d find anyone tiny except for maybe your nephew! π
Nephews. The other one is 7’1″.
I’m figuring with all the ice cream I’m eating I won’t be tiny anymore.
And how about your sis?
No dad was normal height at about 6′ and Mom is I think about 5’10”. Rather short really. Sis is about 5’10” also.
We don’t know where the real tall gene came from.
Then again, I’ve alway felt I was normal height and everybody else was short. π
For women, that’s tall FM … How ’bout your daughters — did they inherit the tall gene?
My daughters are adopted so they didn’t get any tall genes.
5’10” is tall huh. Go figure. π
And I did say it’s relative … You don’t have to rub it in … Although my height is one thing I like about myself — 7 ft tall would be problematic I think … π
I’m sorry I didn’t realize I was rubbing it in. I apologize.
When I was younger I actually wished I was shorter. When I started hitting my growth spurts, I would be tripping over my feet all the time.
Please … π
I was that way for a long time too — I was always taller than my friends; I’ve had only 2-3 friends who were taller than me. And I’m not really that tall — 5’8″ — but I grew up feeling gangly and miserable and not petite. But I’ve grown into it and I like being tall now.
I’m sorry Olivia, but 5’8″ ain’t tall. The youngest nephew that’s so tall, his mom is 6′. His dad is 6’5″.
The gangly thing is bad for all kids, but it’s so nice getting to a certain age where you think why was I ever worried about that.
Yes … I think we can say that above most things, not just height right? π
but she didn’t feel well enough.
maryb and I have a plan to meet up in August and I’m hoping that Indy will be able to come along.
But the magic words are “Chicago October 7”.
She’s really good at that!
I wish Indy was feeling better …
How are you feeling post-bike incident?
we need to keep working on FM!
Agreed many times over on Indy.
I’m doing okay — though SN and Jim had fun talking about all my ugly green bruises.
Nope
Agree
I would have made fun too. π
He seems to be stuck. π
Yep and this mud down is here pretty deep. π
You really to come — after you are lavished with all the adoring attention you are bound to receive, you will be able to go home and vanquish both every unruly, rude relative and every nasty, vile snake (without even having to stop to tell which is which).
Tell ya what, we can teleconference. π
C’mon, how can you pass up being cosseted by a group of women who are dying to meet you! π
My realtives will be coming back soon and I’ll tell them to buy me a lottery ticket. If I hit, I’ll be there.
Hell if I hit, we’ll all be papmered. π
Maybe that’s the problem — you’re scared of being smothered to death right? π
If I had to go, being smothered in hugs by all of you would be the way.
You had to commit to going didn’t ya. Now I don’t have anyone to direct the attention away from me onto.
Where’s Refinish. π
I haven’t committed … I’m still in the serious consideration phase.
Oh Olivia, Olivia, Olivia…
And you haven’t either, so FM, FM, FM!
You’re going. SN and I devoted a fair amount of time discussing how excited we were that you were coming — you couldn’t be so cruel as to disappoint us (especially since SN is willing to deal with her flying fears just to meet you).
In the midwest section … I was stating that it was too late that we (NDD, dada, me) were already committed as in crazy! I knew I shouldn’t have said anything.
Yeah Olivia, Hah. π
I’m sure they spent MORE time trying to figure out how to get you to Chicago. So there! π
Are you kidding? You would make it internation. I would just be a backwoods hick they had to show which fork to use. π
You’ve travelled … I’m sure you’d bring an exotic flair to the big city.
Great Picture!!!!
Did you get much stuff done today — you said you were staying in …
Refinish you’re going to Chicago aren’t you?
I don’t know how they do it, but Family Mom and George seem to sense when I’m in the cafe and always that’s the time they want something.
I’ll be back in a minute.
reassuring…….because it is a little bit to me. My husband is rewriting the curriculum for the class he teaches because it really hasn’t been done in in in in……I don’t want to tell you guys because you pay taxes, let’s just say it is a little bit depressing from a tax payer point of view. He has been collecting data, literature, photos, and videos of all these different weapon systems made by the U.S., Germany, the Brits, France, China, Russia various other countries……you know, all the assholes that make all this shit and sell it to everybody else so they can blow the hell out of each other all the time. He’s complaining because everybody’s information about stuff is soooooo wrong and he finds sooooooo many errors and things mislabeled all over the world in the data that these various assholes put out. Don’t you guys sort of find their incompetence a little reassuring in some weird way too? Or is just me? And should we sneak Ambien into my husband’s breakfast so he can’t clear up any of this shit and only makes it worse?
The Air Force, Navy, and several other governmental agencies have my company’s software and I’ve done work for them and never been impressed. I did a bunch of stuff for the folks at Cheyenne Mountain (I liked going to Colorado Springs before it got so overgrown) and it made me feel very relieved that the cold war was over.
On 9/11 they forced a Korean airliner down in Canada because the pilots didn’t respond to the radio. I had just come from Korea two days before and somehow CNN reported that it happened before they “shut up” about it and of course I heard it because I was thinking to myself HOLY SHIT! My husband had this Colonel friend who worked in Cheyenne Mtn and we were having dinner one night and I said something about my HOLY SHIT moment when they forced the Korean Airliner down and he got all fluffy and huffy and red in the face and asked me how I knew about that because nobody was supposed to know about that. Ummmmmm, gee, CNN?!
Tracy your husband pays taxes too. It used to piss me off that I was paying myself to do the job.
Don’t know if that’s relative to what you’re discussing though.
to see so clearly how your money was wasted, and people didn’t care, and they wrote bullshit that they taught to your soldiers.
While I was in, I was enlisted in an environmental/OSHA type office. I could see money going everwhere, but for the equipment we needed to keep the bases in regulatory standards, we never could get it.
Not much to say, huh Andi. π
sorry about the empty post and be right back
New cafe here.
