in any way you want.
I would like a Sparkly Unicorn martini, please.
my monitor by snorting coffee on it, aren’t you?
Huh? I just thought it sounded happy, and I need happy.
EOTOOTPSUWDWJATLALOTU (oh-oh is that being cliquey?)
So then we’re in session?
we don’t want the other people to know.
Did you get any good books at Goodwill?
Yes, that book about Biff, the childhood friend of Jesus’ that you and Maryb were talking about. :::sniff:::
Make that SU martini a double.
If you start reading Lamb, you won’t be able to sniff.
Is that a real drink? If so, what’s in it?
That picture almost made me swallow my tongue. I think I saw that frog last July 4th.
Can’t stay, but couldn’t resist posting after seeing the picture.
and did you see it before the kegger or afterwards? LOL
Oh, after… I thought that was crystal clear, in a bleary-eyed sort of way.
did you order the battery?
I know the lounge is for fun, but something is going on in Diane’s diary that could affect this entire site. I urge you to take a few minutes and look in on that debate.
Been there – scared to be honest. 🙂
I’ve been following it. I’m sort of agnostic about it at the moment — I don’t mind the rules though I think the ‘council’ is a pretty awful idea.
I don’t like the council … at all.
you’re too young to be on a council of elders. 😉
I thought age wasn’t a factor … 😛
Ah, but with age comes wisdom! Or is it wisdom teeth…
I have no desire to tell Booman how to run his own blog.
Amen.
Or at least the very latter part of it (it’s 11:38am).
After a fairly long break, Luna and I are back to taking dog classes today. We’re probably going back into obedience for awhile, after the “running away incidence” that marred our stellar Dog Agility career.
Could I please have one of those Guiness’s, with the little plastic ball in the can??
As a matter of fact, after the last two days, may I please have two?
Wait a minute – I’m definitely at a disadvantage here not being a drinker. Little plastic ball?
Yes, Guinness is unique. I’m not sure if it they put it in all their varieties, but my favorite is Guinness Draft in a big, black can. That’s the beer I drank everywhere on my trip to England and Scotland in 2001. It’s pretty commonly available in the United States. Each can has a specially shaped plastic ball in it, about three quarters of an inch in diameter. It is designed, I believe, to agitate the beer while it is poured, to give the optimal suds. And it definitely works. Then you are left with an empty can with a ball in it to rattle around. That gets to be more fun as you drink more of them.
I can see the appeal. Which reminds me of an old photo of my now 55 year old sister at about 12 months of age, holding a whiskey bottle in one hand and a light bulb in the other. Such great fun! 🙂
Wow – that really does look good.
Here’s a get well wish for you:
I’m guessing you have a headache? Hopefully you’ll be around later or tomorrow.
and she’s not really here, I’m bringing anna in philly over from last night’s open thread with THE comment of the year. This just makes me weep with joy.
but I think I will have to object to your trying to raise the level of discourse in the cafe.
If anna won’t come herself I am not ashamed to drag her here.
love the stream of consciousness…
completely.
snappy and write stuff like that and claim she took ativan. That was one of the things they gave me for my schnoz surgery and I couldn’t wipe myself.
I”m still stuck on the jesus-shaped dildo. Well, not literally stuck…
because that would surely get anna to the cafe.
Maybe if she knew the anna in philly fan club was meeting..
Could you guys set one or two up for me, please? I hope to back soon.
is the sparkly unicorn martini. Two coming right up.
I think you need a keg sized martini. LOL I read the other thread and would not post on it for love nor money. LOL
Hmmmm – how about George Clooney? I mean if he wasn’t hetero and all. Silly little complications.
I am not getting involved at all. I guess I was lucky all the sh-t had jhit the fan in my personal life so that I missed all the “drama” and I have no desire to get involved in the fallout from it.
The marmotini
ROTFLMAO!!!! That picture is too funny.
Is it pathetic that I find the marmot sexy?
well, marmotdude certainly doesn’t think so.
New York Super Fudge Chunk … mmmmmmmmmmmmm
nirvana, eh?
LOL I am having Moo-llennium Crunch. It is vanilla with chocolate and caramel chunks, pecasn, almonds and walnuts. LOL
Is it leftover from 2000?
No, the local big dairy started making it in 2000 as a speciallty but it was so popular they have kept it going.
psychoanalysis to get at your marmot fixation. Either that or more drinks. I’m going to check out of the debate and come back here.
Marmotdude is a mascot – not a fixation.
kewl guys like marmotdude make you insecure. 😉
I wrote a funny diary to help lighten the mood in the Pond, but I won’t link to it. Hunting’s half the fun.
Now where’d I put that bottle of Jack Daniels?
Hi All!
Hope you all had a great day! I have my rum and ginger alle in hand – needed it today!
Are you all ready for the Super Bowl?
the Superbowl because I didn’t order the local stations. Dear God, please forgive for once again being UnAmerican.
ROTF & LMAO! I believe you are forgiven and you definitely are an American!
I will be at Molly Ivins service and celebrating a great spirt and human and mourning the loss to the world with her passing.
Oh, I envy you! It’s not fair that she is gone and Robert Novak lives to drink blood another moonless night.
amen!!!!
She was a Buddha I believe. I think she was reborn but I don’t know if America will be lucky enough to get her twice in a row. I’m pretty sure we didn’t have the karma for it.
I have met some of the next generation women who will be taking up the battle of Molly, Ann and Barbara. There are some fantastic young voices coming alive and getting involved. I will always mourn the loss of the great ones but I wil cherish the finding of the new ones also.
If you are still here, RF, what are the details on Molly’s funeral?
Molly Ivins’s memorial service is Sunday at 2:00 at the First United Methodist Church, 1201 Lavaca St, followed by a reception at Scholz’s Beer Garden at 1607 San Jacinto Blvd at 4:00 pm.
The church will be stuffed, and all the politicos who can’t stand being in church if they’re not up front in the “see and be seen” seats will show up early at Scholz’s to get the “prime” seats – and to start drinking early ):.
We’ll have to make some nachos, open up some good beer, and hoist a few at 4pm CST. For four years of my life, every Tuesday or Thursday ended with a group of us going to Scholz’. When the lege was in session, it was more interesting than in the off years. I’ve seen Molly there, once with Ann Richards, another time surrounded by what looked like a bunch of good ol boys.
Perfect spot for a memorial celebration for her!
The people attending Molly’s service will not be concerned about the spotlight. I was at a candle light vigil for her on Thursady where several elected officials were and they kept sending the press over to talk to other people saying ‘ Molly was a person of the people” and should be honored by them.
Your reverence for elected officials is touching – but having lived in Texas for some 13 years of my adult life, I’m not as generous as you (those must have been “librul Austin politicians”. After all. . . what do you think Molly thought about those good old boys? I think if she’s lurking around in spirit, she’ll be over at the Scholz rather than in the church building anyway.
I wish you could also.
I guess I will have to root for the Colts in a convoluted sense of retaliation for Art Modell stealing the Browns from Cleveland and taking them to Baltimore to replace the Colts that whoever it was stole from Baltimore and took to Indianapolis. Make sense? I didn’t think so.
I live in Indiana — I’ve been watching the “orgasm” scene from When Harry Met Sally to get myself ready to display my enthusiasm for the game.
there are so many comments I could make on that one but I will refraim. LOL
I’ll have what she’s having.
performed in honor of FM’s absence.
I’m imagining the Blue Angels – ah, what a beautiful tribute to FM.
Welcome to the pond have a cocktail and join the wildness. LOL
Thanks! After the recent dairies and comments, I feel like I have been through the wilderness LOL! I appreciate the welcome and look forward to learn from you all!
The husband of one of my friends is turning in his paperwork for retirement next week. Sort of funny but a lot of old soldiers have a hard time not working their tails off right now and refusing to leave the “boys” alone in harms way. When they hit 20 years though it’s like instant guilt relief. So Joe has stayed the full 20 instead of getting out three years early like he really wanted. He was even declared somewhat disabled but refused to leave. He was worried to death about getting a job like many old soldiers but it looks like he will have a carpentry job on post. He loves carpentry. I could hear the relief spill out of the phone tonight that soon they will be civilians. We had not spoken since my nose surgery and I can’t remember a thing she told me then. She is such an amazing friend. When Josh was first born they didn’t know what was going on with him. I saw this little baby boy with feet, hands, face, so twisted and I thought dear God maybe it would better if he died, it would be less painful for him. When I touched his leg though and spoke to him and felt him recognize my voice I knew he was going to live and we would be okay and I felt so guilty for my first thought. Her first little girl had been born extremely premature so when she came to the hospital and saw Joshua. She took him to the nursery, came back to my room, looked at me and said, “You know it’s okay if your first thought was dear Lord please let him die and don’t make him live through this.” Then she held me while I sobbed for a good fifteen minutes. I will never forget that because I have no idea how long I would have packed that guilt around if she hadn’t been my friend, but she helped me get rid of it on the first day.
Hey, that is a happy story, MT. And that little Josh has enriched my life in the 12 hours I spent in his presence, so I can imagine what he has brought to yours.
for an agreed 30 minutes today. He is doing so well in school, and his sister is sane again. I mean like fully sane for hours and sometimes days on end. Last year was, well, I wish I would have thought of outward bound. I think I would have saved both of us lots of headaches and maybe one bedroom door. She’s a slammer that one is. Okay, one more funny. Her dad finally took her bedroom door off so she couldn’t slam it, like three different times and the last time he didn’t know if he was going to put it back on ever again. A few months go by. She is EXTREMELY modest and always changed in her bathroom when her door was off. So my husband and I are standing in the kitchen and here she comes in black silk panties and bra just walking through the house leisurely. I thought my husband was going to pass out. I think it burned his corneas at least. The bedroom door was back on within an hour and she doesn’t slam hardly at all anymore.
Wow – what a clever one that is. Did your hubby bleach his corneas afterwards?
Great news!!!!!
Open to all drunk Frogs.
