“"By the way, what are you doing on this blog? This is for liberals and progressives, not dumb-dumb Reps."
Oh, dear, dear Emlyn, you must be very new here... Boy, are you in for a big surprise!

“Actually, didn't Quist say Obama was WORSE than a TERRORIST!
And just the other day Jim DeMint (and others like him) were complaining that sometimes Obama uses the words "radical" or "extremist" (which they said were meaningless words) which showed Obama didn't really care about "War on Terror." These folks are bloody lunatics who belong in strait-jackets.
My skull is still prickling from the sound bite!”

“Al Franken is a genuine miracle - thank you MN - it helps make up for some of the rather glaringly awful elective choices MN voters have made!
Now if the rest of the country would shape up and give us 99 more Senators like Franken and 434 more Reps like Grayson (or Franken - Weiner's got real potential too.)”

I was just watching Hardball and he showed the clip of this 'new' i.d.i.0.t from MN who is a religious nut and was Bachmann's 'mentor'. If possible he seems worse!
Hope all is well with you, my friend.”

“Chinatown is a marvelous movie! You really must find a way to see it.
We tend to take water (and it's easy access/ava ilability) very much for granted in most parts of this country. But I've got a powerful feeling that wqater will be our next "oil" - in terms of the next global battle for resources. It already plays a significant role in disputes (wars, hatreds etc) around the planet.
America's wasteful sense of privilege and our stunningly ignorant stand: BLOCKING FAMILY PLANNING (birth control and pre-natal care) will only exasperate and accelerate this LOOMING CRISIS.”

“Hope you're OK! And I certain that your fortunate (to be) friends will forgive your for any minor (or even major) mix-up!
I'm a little worse for wear myself. I was carrying big basket of laundry down back stair when a very rambunctious cat came flying down the steps, took me off guard and down the stairs I tumbled, hitting body parts I didn't even know I had along the way. Major OUCH!
Stubborn as a Goat eh? - A good quality that can serve you well (and I've got Mars in Scorpio!) We've both got some Gemini going on in there too. Again, Congrats and TAKE GOOD CARE!”

“I'm fine - after a good night's sleep. 7.30am - and I JUST got up. Seems I get up with the daylight. In the summer I'm up by 5am, feed my babies, make my coffee and wander outside to see what I'm going to do out there for the day. In the winter - not so much.
My dear Jesster, I hope you aren't hurt too badly. Are you bruised?? Watch them darn critters!!
My first husband didn't want a wife, He wanted a 'mother' and one night he told me to get him a glass of water. Split level house and just descending seven stairs (down to the den) with water in hand when something similar happened - and I bounced down six of those steps bruising my tail bone. Guess what? I never spilled a drop of water but I walked doubled over for a few days. Husband declared that I 'was tough!' ------- I was, and I am!”

“I think Republicans and Neo-Cons (who have nothing in common true conservativism - much less conservation!) childishly and destructively mistake / confuse bullying, thuggish behavior with authentic strength.
You know the kind of reckless macho idea of manliness that says: "Bring it on!" And in keeping with that reckless style - they are also fiscally irresponsible - ironically much more so than the Dems.
And as for being pro-life? Yeah - only BEFORE you're born and even then tough luck if your parents can't afford prenatal care. Sure, they love to wave their flags and pretend to be patriotic - but where's the armor and the care and assistance when our warriors come home.?”

Oh talking about 'old-timers'. I got a couple of friends mixed up yesterday - answering one with a message meant for the other. I hope they forgive me - I was whacked after shoveling snow and cooking most of the day. Sometimes I think I should hang up my hat. But no, I'm a true Taurus character - just plain stubborn!
And, thank you my friend, for updating me. I didn't even notice that I had reached the century mark.”
