that only leaves one choice
DeVito Denies Being Drunk On 'View' - Entertainment - NBC13.com | WVTM
Since he says he wasn’t drunk that only leaves being rude and stupid. But we know he can’t be stupid –he’s a liberal after all.

looks like another bad Thursday three
1. I’m generally pretty good at letting people know what I want. This saves them from having to buy me ties. As I get older I move beyond hints to directions. However, my wife is usually pretty good at getting me things I didn’t ask for but like.
2. I can shop for most people but never seem to hit what my wife wants and she isn’t a signaler. Thinks I should just know—well after thirty something years she should have figured out I don’t.
3. 90% of the looking and probably 50% of the shopping is being done online. I really like the comparison shopping that keeps me out of the crowds,

what makes Alabama think these guys want to come?
al.com: Alabama Football
My guess is these guys already make the money without as much of the idiotic pressure they would have at Alabama.

CTV.ca | PM delivers on pledge to revisit same-sex issue
Harper set up time to revisit issue as he promised. Also issues like this are best settled in the market place of ideas not the closed economy of the courts.

San Diego to ban Wal-Mart Supercenters - Yahoo! News
Now I know there will be many more small stores out there catering to the immigrant populations than here but…. It seems a great majority of the local Hispanic population frequents the superstore.

I’ma shreddin’ and I’ma grinnin’
I’m really working on some stuff for class and waiting for my online chat in about 45 minutes. In the meantime I’m reducing the mass and I do mean mass [it has it’s own gravitational pull] of old bills and stuff. I think for Christmas I need the big machine—and cross cut.

is it possible to be nice to the antis?
Son also rises in testy Webb-Bush exchange
President asks the senator elect how his son, currently in Iraq, is doing. Webb responds he wants him home. Bush says “didn’t ask that asked how he is doing.” And Webb is the one offended. [reportedly wanted to slug the president. ] So much for those who thought Webb was going to be anything but a standard political ass.
To them everything is a political statement and every moment is ripe for a sound bite.

now who???
Tide turns on Shula in late-night firing; search is on again
We get a syndicated sports talk show out of Charlotte that is pretty decent. The guy running it always asks the same questions when callers talk about wanting to get rid of the coach—he asks OK now firing is easy—who are you going to hire and why is he better than the guy you fired?
Looks like Alabama is over reaching again. Seems like they will never be happy until the Bear comes back from the dead. Stallings won a championship and still they were after him.
Well, couldn’t happen to a better bunch unless it was LSU or maybe Tennessee.

now we have to decide when to go to Alabama
al.com: Extra from The Birmingham News#208993
We need to go to Birmingham to visit my aunt over Christmas. We would probably do this as part of a visit to the Florida pan handle to visit other relatives. The original plan was to go after Christmas—thus spending Christmas Eve and Christmas day here. Now this complicates matters. I sure would like to see the game especially since I need to be in B’ham over the holidays anyway.

back today
Yesterday was busy working from and just waiting for the colonoscopy in the afternoon. That went fine. Because of a long series of events I ended up with the regular stuff they give you for the procedure and then some antihistamine stuff of a reaction to an anti-biotic. Thus I slept most of the whole night from about 7 until 8 this morning.

Even the tech media—maybe it’s just me and my family but I don’t think of “stocking stuffers” as things in the 150-350 dollar price range.
Maybe to others a stocking stuffer is something small in size. So is a gold coin but you don’t hear that as a stocking stuffer.

RACE-RANT COMIC DEFENDED - New York Post Online Edition: Seven
“Funny man” Tom Green says we should leave Richards alone. He doesn’t think he’s a racist not like Mel Gibson is—well he must be right –he’s been in a movie after all.
Notice how this parade only has clowns.
My guess is these enablers can't believe one of their own would say those things.
Time to look a little closer at your own-- hollywood.

the folks at Wal-Mart aren’t stupid
Rebuffed in the United States, Wal-Mart gets the go-ahead for bank in Mexico - Business - International Herald Tribune
I’m not sure the press and the political left appreciates how good they are at what they do. The application for a bank in the U.S. mainly they say to process credit card stuff was turned down. The article says it was opposed by the “community” – this means banks and unions and the regular Wal-Mart haters.
Well, they want to provide bank accounts for those who don’t have them and locate the banks in Wal-Marts.
Perhaps NAFTA will allow they in the back door.

Richards' Rant -- Not The First Time - TMZ.com
Some are now saying he did an anti-Semitic rant a few months ago. It’s OK however he explained it was just part of his act making fun of red necks. This guy is a real piece of “you know what.” When he gets caught at it he blames it on others. Lucky for him he has nice liberal friends like Jerry and Dave are apparently his racism enablers.

that terrible company is checking the information the workers provided
Smithfield union workers walkout, protest labor screening process
A few hundred people walked out over many issues they say. It looks like the main issue is the company is now checking up on the information provided at hiring. The company has already fired 75 people for giving false info. The union seems to be sticking with the other reasons. Will keep this one on the radar.

The court threw out the original conviction because of gruesome pictures of the crime scene. The second jury acquitted the SOB.

it’s the political Thursday Three
Can we vote on this?? Come on let it out.
As I said in comment down below in terms of politics:
All I’m looking for is a political party that will stay out of my hospital room, my kitchen, my bedroom and my wallet.
Haven’t found one yet.
Now to the questions:
1. Will the Dems act like responsible adults? No, they will act like I do on a diet. They will try but the natural tendencies will come out. They will have the moonbats front and center within a couple of months.
2. I say this with all sincerity “screw the international community.” When they pay our taxes and vote in our elections then they have a say.
3. I’m not sure I’ll be living then and don’t like horror movies so I tend to stay out of the fight. It does bring up the point however that bothers me most. We elect people to govern they think we elect them to run again. This problem has to be solved.

what got them thrown out?
Not sure but from my perspective the republicans started to either look like free spending democrats or worse still theocrats. The Terri Schaivo thing was a real negative for me as was stem cell. What they took as a principled stand I took to be posturing and playing to the hard core base. I tend to be a libertarian not a real social conservative so those issues were always a problem.
What sent it over the top for many I believe is after a while it looked like that is all the republicans cared for. That and national defense. I still voted that way because I take the threat of terrorism seriously. Apparently many people don’t.
Given how the republicans governed, if you don’t think terrorism is the big issue doesn’t see how you could vote for a republican. They got into my life in ways that I thought a party standing for individual liberty should not.

Given how the republicans governed, if you don’t think terrorism is the big issue doesn’t see how you could vote for a republican. They got into my life in ways that I thought a party standing for individual liberty should not.

how far is Sand Mountain from KY?
WRAL.com - News - Woman Fatally Bitten By Snake At Church
Reminds me of that Kudzu cartoon where the Rev. Will B. Dunn is talking about his home town. He said it was so backward even the Episcopalians handled snakes.

but all the exit polls showed her ahead
YouTube - Faith Hill is a PISSED!
Her “people” say she was just joking around. Those democrats really like to joke you know.
If you can’t get youtube at work this is all about Faith’s reaction to not winning an award.

I’m not really sure where this is somewhere is the western part of the state
WRAL.com - AP North Carolina News - Alexander County Hospital To Close
However, it could just as easy be near me. Those of us who live in areas with abundant medical facilities don’t know how lucky we are. Small counties have real problems with facilities. I know our medical center serves a multi county area.
Also without that large service area and the medical school that creates the critical mass of docs and other medical personnel our county would never have the facilities we do.

they’re working real hard on the test
Part of it is sort of multiple answer. In this case it means that multiple answers will fit. A goodly portion of the test is vocabulary and in negotiations many things go by multiple names.

giving a test today
I just finished making copies of the test. I was sure it was on my computer at school as I was able to access that computer from home. I haven’t done this much before but this way I don’t have to have multiple copies of everything I need.
So perhaps some test blogging later this morning.

I don’t have much sympathy
al.com: NewsFlash - Gulf fishermen upset over required monitoring system
The fishermen are complaining the monitoring system is an invasion of their privacy. It’s not. They are not fishing private waters but rather waters that belong to all of us. As long as there are protected waters that need protection then this might be a way to make that work.

this is really a lame TT and if I could breathe better I would chase the writer of these things down and ----well do something
1. I love the fall but as I get older I get more allergic to it. Yep the whole thing. I think it is some of the goldenrod type things and also mold. That seems to show up this time of year.
2. and 3 Nope—except for the allergies I love the fall. I like to food—way too much. I love the cool nights and days and the trees and the not cutting grass and football and thanksgiving. Also I really like no sweating when just looking outside.
