Don’t be shy! Now’s your chance to de-lurk and say hello!

May the 4’s be with you
Say hello to the newest member of the Frog Pond
My answer to the question: Electoral reform that includes verifiable data trails and a national holiday to allow more people the opportunity to vote.
Your turn!
definitely it would be redoing the drapes and reupholstering the couch and chairs in the Oval Office.
make sure you remove all those subversive Ws from the keyboards while you’re at it
These w’s?
my very liberal brain circuits are telling me it’s time to take another vacation. (waves hello!)
Hmm.
Maybe do like the Russians?
I can’t resist cuing the Bloodhound Gang
Oh my!
LOL.
You young folks these days…
Love it. š
I’d issue an executive order deeming it illegal to draw any connection between Dick Cheney and Darth Vader. (ie Darth Cheney) Darth Vader is far too nice and has suffered enough abuse to date.
Finally, our long national nightmare is over.
the wagon is out a little early today. I think everything should be on paper, like the Iowa Basic Test a few us took in grade school. Use your pen to fill in the oval and do not make an marks outside the oval.
My favorite question from that infamous test (paraphrased from memory):
An umbrella is primarily used for
a) playing cricket
b) keeping dry from the rain
c) blocking the sun
And they wonder why so many of us in the desert southwest did poorly.
A snark in every pot, I guess. There’s so much to be done to restore sanity to government and to ensure that it stays there that I practically get vaporlock thinking about it all.
It’s always offered at a premium discount here in the Froggy Bottom Lounge, as you’re well aware š
I’d be happy with some basic legislation making its way through the system that unequivocally says no to torture, but clearly that is too much to ask.
If I were suddenly the Decider (is this like Freaky Friday?) I’d overturn Libby’s pardon and send him to jail. Then, I’d get the WH counsel to help me write a confession of all the laws I’ve broken while in the WH, exposing the crimes of Cheney and Rove and Gonzo and others in the process. I’d produce a disk containg all of the missing RNC emails, and then I would resign and turn myself over to the authorities for imprisonment in Guantanamo.
oooo, an interesting twist to the premise of the question. Of course, there would be immediate suspicion since any press conferences you held would not be a mangled train wreck of grammar.
Mandatory afternoon naps and storytimes.
Hey, who ate all the cheese dip?
New children’s teevee programming
Ewww…that barney one is…just eww.
They were so awful(ly funny) I just had to share them with somebody.
Barney the Purple Gyno-Sore? ewwwww and wahahaha! at the same time
My first act as “The Decider” would be to toss that ridiculously solipsistic term and gather together people who know what they are talking about to collectively come up with the best decisions possible.
Hola everybody. It’s looks like it’s going to be a nice sunny day Downunder.
hi, keres. Could you live with Consensus-Builder-In-Chief? š
I’d prefer “Captious Curmudgeon fomenting Lesbian Nation”, but it might put a few people off. So yeah, I could live with your title.
I think I would have to repeal all laws passed in the past 6 years and tell Congress to start thinking about their constituents before passing new legislation.
(I accidentally posted this in the other wednesday thread. Gosh, you’d think it was a monday!)
hi K, that’s how I’ve been feeling all week. Everything seems abit off in my world. Hope you’re doing well.
with all the traffic earlier this week, did Booman get a few new recruits?
the traffic definitely picked up, a4l – hopefully newcomers will continue to post comments and content (and say hi in the cafes/lounges!)
Good morning, Manny!
Are you up, or still up.
alittle bit of both, getting ready to pass out tho…finally
That should be easy at this hour.
my sleep schedule is upside-down, which means that I may or may not be awake at the moment. The jury’s out. Unfortunately, I have alot to do at my desk. Grumble, grumble.
Hope your days is good, tho!
This place could use a good community manager — to make visitors and contributors feel especially welcome.
It’s kinda sterile and brittle these days. Nobody is putting out much energy to each other.
Someone who would lead by example, by reaching out to new contributors, would be such an asset.
Just saying…
hi Pluto, that’s what this place is designed for, we are always open to new ideas so any suggestions you have are most appreciative!
You make the best welcome wagon hostess, Manny! But the apron is probably unnecessary as long as you keep providing cheesecake and margaritas.
You’re just saying that because the apron is all I’m wearing [grin]
Damn. I can’t fool anyone. š
