P.S. Disregard Barfly,he’s usually drunk at that time of night.

“I’ve been dreaming like a maniac,” he said. “I dreamed I was eating dead American soldiers. It was my job to eat them as soon as they died so that nothing bad could happen to their bodies. They came so fast I had to run the whole time to catch up and the more I ate the bigger I got. And I kept getting bigger and bigger until I was as big as THREE THOUSAND TWO HUNDRED AND SIXTY SEVEN SOULS and filled up the known universe until I exploded from all the souls of the soldiers and fell on the sky in pieces that became red and blue and white stars falling across the sky. And then I took a shit and the shit rolled over and stood up and said, ‘Hello, ahm Dubya ‘n ah cud yoose a gud dawg lak you.’ And then a fat, cow faced man shot me with birdshot and I woke up. What does that mean?”

I said, “Are you sure that was Dubya and not just a regular piece of shit?”

But my dog just whined and jumped up on my knees so I took him outside and he shat a pile of white gloves and a whole fleet of chartered airplanes.

I think I better take him to the damn vet.

I’m late to the discourse, but I’d like to point out something. Karina came on with a well-written litany of talking points about fighting them over there so we don’t have to fight them over here.

Then, when ripped for it, developed a persona of a 15 year-old high school student, complete with im spellings, so that some would back off and apologize.

We’ve seen that tactic before, folks. Troll-alert got it right.

Oy. We’ll have the extra-strength tylenol ready when you get back. :)

You and Zooey definitely need to walk around with video cameras.

Sorry but now I’m hoping a troll shows up before I have to leave for a 8 year old’s birthday party.

I bet those crack heads moved faster than they have in a long time! Maybe they’ll spread the word to all their crack head friends not to mess around at your resort.

Nice one…

I thought I had seen it all and helped to clean it all up in our little neighborhood but I was wrong….The most appaling sight happened just a few minutes ago……A car turned around in our little one lane drive and then went out and parked on the other side of the garage….No one went out to the dock or out to the bait shop so I decided to check it out….In broad day light, with fishermen, children resident’s just a few feet away a couple of crack head’s were doing their thing….I walked up to the car and screamed at the top of my lung’s ” get the f*** out of here, this is a private resort you son’s a b****es.”..Well needless to say, something didn’t get done..(bj)…LOL..wish I would of been packing, their tire’s would of been blown out…..Should of called the cop’s, but their slow and I’m not…..Not against car sex but time and placement should be in order….LOL..Just had to vent and pass on this Saturday event…Blessings all and see playing nicely is not an option when we are surrounded with disgusting behavior from our representatives and many in the public….

I saw it too but thought I had made the mistake. You have to hit me over the head before I get subtle humor.

I think that’s why I understand trolls better than our intelligent, thoughtful posters. Nothing, subtle, humorous or intelligent about them.

By the by, here in Illinois it’s been 32 degrees and mostly cloudy for days and its supposed to last about another week. My magnolia tree is losing blossoms before they ever opened up.
Bummer.

Good morning. We got your wonderful weather, and I hope we miss your gray skies. :)

I noticed you called her Katrina, but I was feeling too pissed off to say anything. Sorry!

We need more train wrecks like you (and me) in this world today.

Healing thoughts continuing to go to RUC.

Great post david #104…..

Healing thought’s to RUCerious and all…Blessings

Overseer? Oh, yikes. :)

Goehl, I keep going back and forth on Karina. She had the absolute confidence of a 15 year old, but she did zero in on me. But then, I was pretty mean. I wasn’t in the mood for that crap on this kind of thread. We’ll see!

Welcome, goehl! I always enjoy reading your comments.

The civilian authority has a duty to honor the ultimate sacrifice of its fallen soldiers. It’s the politicians who have placed them in harm’s way and they have dutifully obeyed. We honor them when they return in flag drapped coffins. We also honor them when we hold their civilian commanders accountable by demanding to know that the war was just, its objective clear, and the risk of failure minimal. Up until now we haven’t been honoring the troops in any way. We are now doing the former; it’s time we did the latter.

Gates said war planners had attempted to accelerate the deployments. But the military’s inability to move equipment to the region more quickly and the need to keep units on a regular training routine forced a slower schedule, he said.

“One of the principal reasons that it was not possible to accelerate it was that we want to make sure that every single one of those brigades is adequately trained before they actually enter Iraq,” he said.
