  3. I typically don’t comment on weekends, posts like this are why.

  4. Wow. When you’ve fucked things up worse than Jimmy Carter, that’s really something.

    Heh.

  10. Didja feel that J’Ames? I just eviscerated you with my mind.

    ‘…backstreet’s back, alright!’

  11. Wow. When you’ve fucked things up worse than Jimmy Carter, that’s really something.

    You know last night Carter snorted peanut dust off a Hamas suicide bomber’s ass and said “HEH”.

    Fucking Obama.

    IDIOT!!

  12. The downgrade was racist.

  13. But Rosetta, pointing out that the Kenyan retard in the White House screwed the pooch would be impolite!!!!

    This magical RNC that you are thinking about, who are they? The one I am familiar with wouldn’t dream of using that for political advantage.

  15. Screw you number lock!

    Ouch! Quit that!

  18. This magical RNC that you are thinking about, who are they? The one I am familiar with wouldn’t dream of using that for political advantage.

    Why you harsh my buzz with reality?

  19. Ello, Cyn, what’s in stock at your bar of choice, this evenin?

  20. Screw you number lock!

    Hahahahahaha.

    Maybe best comment ever.

  21. Hey Bastages and pretty girls

    Just because GML’s mom was married to another “guy” at the time of his birth doesn’t give you the right to call him names. . . BULLY!

  22. But Rosetta, pointing out that the Kenyan retard in the White House screwed the pooch would be impolite!!!!

    Sorry. I forgot about the new tone.

  23. Vodka. And I’m feeling saucy this evening so I’d like it with an orange slice. Orange. Slice.

  24. I hope you are all happy, I changed back to my old, boring persona.

  25. The tea party had a dog and BINGO was his name-o.

  26. It makes you look like such a clean an upstanding fellow, Chief.

  27. I hope you are all happy, I changed back to my old, boring persona.

    This is better. That other bullshit you had going on sucked about a hundred donkey balls.

  28. Sorry. I forgot about the new tone.

    Nobody’s blaming you. After all, you were preoccupied with putting on your suicide bomb vest.

  29. Hows about you Jay? What are you throwing back?

    I’m buying for everyone this evening. Even GLand.

  30. Cyn – Just some generic Sailor pic from Bing images.

  31. Oops I was still on the old thread
    My Bad

  32. Thanks Cyn! I’m honored?

  33. Even GLand.

    Hahahahaha.

  34. I’m just doing the “beer on sale” tonight. Nothing special. Miller High Life, the Champagne of Beers.

  35. MCPO, did you hit at balls with sticks today?

  36. Freezer Vodka shots for me Cyn!

  37. Welcome to the new, improved (?) poat, Vmax! Cyn’s buying!

  38. That other bullshit you had going on sucked about a hundred donkey balls.

    I was so pissed about the Debt Ceiling and the resultant Credit downgrade and felt MCPO could not properly express my massive desire to choke every elected official in D.C., along with their cadre of paid, sycophantic lackeys.

  39. Freezer Vodka shots for me Cyn!

    Well done, Vmaximus.

  40. No no, it’s looks fine MCPO. Really.

  41. Forgot to ask, Rosetta, do you follow sports at all? I like the St Louis teams, myself. Watching the Cardinals as we speak.

  42. Rosetta – No. Surprisingly, it has rained here all day.

  43. I want to do bad things to the entire DC bureaucracy.
    In a nice politically correct way of course.

  44. Great call on the Heavy Metal album Roamy. I forgot how awesome some of the tune were! xoxoxo!

  45. The Heavy Metal album is one of the best, all time. I’ll bet even Car in likes it!

  46. uh oh.. just “Marlboro”d a tick.

    I think it’s out. Wow. Where’d that little fucker come from?

  47. When I win the lottery, I am having a specially built freezer with a giant tank in it holding nothing but the best vodka and I will invite everyone over to my house for sleep-overs every other weekend.

  48. *dances into thread and shakes ass*

    A Marvin Gaye link like that is like catnip!

  49. What’s your vodka of choice, Cyn? Grey Goose and Ketel One are pretty good choices.

  50. Heh, the pic for the Overnight Thread at Ace’s is cracking me up.

  51. I was so pissed about the Debt Ceiling and the resultant Credit downgrade and felt MCPO could not properly express my massive desire to choke every elected official in D.C., along with their cadre of paid, sycophantic lackeys.

    You underestimate the badassness of MCPO.

  52. Hello-o-o-o sailor!

  53. Grey Goose and Ketel One

    You are evidently a candidate for the Precedent’s “revenue enhancement”, you oppressor of the working class!

  54. *tackles Rosetta, gives him the 400 pound gorilla*

  55. Hello-o-o-o sailor!

    Well, Hello-o-o-o yourself!

  56. HAHA! That is a good pic Jay. Absolut has worked for me for quite a while; I should price out the others some day.

  57. >> A Marvin Gaye link like that is like catnip!

    Oh no.. did I do something?

    My bad.

  58. You are evidently a candidate for the Precedent’s “revenue enhancement”, you oppressor of the working class!

    I didn’t say I had any, just that they were good!

    *back to my High Life. Harumph!

  59. Champagne of Beers!

    *raises glass in toat*

  60. shooty darn.. gotta go kids.

    much love

  61. The dude in the thong, second from left, is getting ready to wiz on 2 live.

    Thank goodness it wasn’t just me thinking that gal looked a little manly….

  62. For Laura: http://youtu.be/87FjkqtK67o

  63. Forgot to ask, Rosetta, do you follow sports at all? I like the St Louis teams, myself. Watching the Cardinals as we speak.

    No. I know more about expressing a bulldog’s butt glands than I know about sports.

    I don’t get into sports at all because I suck at all sports that don’t involve booze and I get bored easily.

    I’m glad you like it though.

    My dad played basketball and baseball in college. Due to my complete lack of athletic ability, by the time I was 13 he thought I would grow up to be a hair dresser.

  64. Irony.

  65. Shuggy!

  66. Holy Crap! It’s pouring outside. We’re getting a month’s worth of rain in a day. The Conodoguinet Creek will be raging tomorrow!

  67. Rosetta’s Dad: I just know it, you’ll be a hairdresser when you grow up!

    Rosetta: I’ll show you, I’ll cut off all my hair!

    fin

  68. Bubbye Dave. Thank you for flying H2.

  69. Rosetta’s Dad: I just know it, you’ll be a hairdresser when you grow up!

    Rosetta: I’ll show you, I’ll cut off all my hair and dress in women’s clothes!

    FIXT!

  70. >> Thank you for flying H2.

    I never slept better ever in the air.

  71. BTW – Conodoguinet is pronounced: Con-na-dew-in-it.

    It’s an feather Indian word for, “Can’t Go In It”.

  72. HAHAHAHAHA!!

  73. Cyn and Dave, sitting in a plane. S-L-E-E-P-I-N-G.

    Just doesn’t have the same ring to it.

  74. “he thought I would grow up to be a hair dresser.”

    You could do that.

  75. It’s manly compared to what you do.

  76. Cathy told me to say that.

  78. I was tired

  79. heh

  80. Cathy told me to say that.

    Not possible. I’m guessing that Michael hacked into her email and typed that for you to say.

  81. *tackles Rosetta, gives him the 400 pound gorilla*

    Hahahahahahahaha.

  82. Ha ha! If by tired you mean that you had to angle your head just so to see the fluffy white clouds, then yes, you were exhausted.

  83. And the rest of you kiss my honey badger.

  84. Evening, Boozehounds.

    Dinner was fried chicken, mashed taters, corn, black-eyed peas, biscuits, gravy, cornbread, soup and bourbon.

    Mostly bourbon.

  85. by the time I was 13 he thought I would grow up to be a hair dresser.

    Man, you sure disappointed him.

  86. So Rosie, you think that this will be your last weekend wearing pretty tube tops and matching toe socks around the house?

  87. Cyn, howzabout sliding me another bourbon?

    I’m not drunk enough to be sexy yet.

  88. Howdy Xbrad. No left over birthday brownies?

  89. Man, you sure disappointed him.

    When I was growing up, my dad used to tell me “Son, whatever you do, I will support you and be there for you because I love you.

    Just don’t get gout because that will mean you’re a loser faggot piece of shit asshole motherfucker.”

    I always remember him telling me that.

  90. Hey, b-rad, I mentioned on the last thread that I was out having a smoke when a P-51 and a P-38 flew by. Awesome. And loud.

  91. I’m not drunk enough to be sexy yet.

    Happy to oblige. I think I’ll join you as I’m not drunk enough yet for you to be sexy either.

  92. So Rosie, you think that this will be your last weekend wearing pretty tube tops and matching toe socks around the house?

    I will bet a large sum of money on it.

    We almost went to the horsespittle in the middle of the night last night. She’s uncomfortable as a mofo so I give this another two days at most.

    Although if her water breaks tonight I’m going to try and put it back in.

  93. I’m sober enough for any three of you!

  94. Why are you sober, MCPO?

    Do you have a dress fitting tomorrow?

  95. 1. There’s some brownies left over. But they aren’t birthday brownies. Mom got Chex Mix for her B’day. I got brownies because I’m fucking awesome.

    2. Sean, I’m still catching up on the last thread. Cool to see a Mustang, even cooler to see a P-38. Those Allisons and Packard built Merlins are loud. But they don’t sound nearly as good as an R-2800 powered F4U Corsair.

  96. I think I’ll join you as I’m not drunk enough yet for you to be sexy either.

    I don’t think you can drink that much.

  97. Oompa Loopma bukkake.

  98. Cyn, have you ever tried Svedka vodka?

    It’s a great affordable mass-consumption beverage.

    I recommend it highly.

  99. Staying sober in anticipation of Junior’s arrival. . . I might have to boil water and ship it to you via UPS.

  100. Did you kids to the Lamaze class? I hope you paid attention. Some of that shit actually works. I vowed to crack my hubby’s head with three rolling pins if he didn’t follow the techniques with our second. I’m happy to report that the hubby breathes today thanks to my kind words of encouragement.

  101. The chick on House Hunters right now is an ugly, chubby spoiled whooore.

  102. Staying sober in anticipation of Junior’s arrival. . . I might have to boil water and ship it to you via UPS.

    Good call.

  103. Oh and her husband is a pussy.

  104. I haven’t tried that one Rosetta. I’ll put that on my to-try list next time I go to the bar. I wonder if they’ll look at me strangely when I order two drinks at the same time.

  105. Phineas and Ferb make me laugh. . . Candace is such a dweeb!

  106. Did you kids to the Lamaze class? I hope you paid attention. Some of that shit actually works. I vowed to crack my hubby’s head with three rolling pins if he didn’t follow the techniques with our second. I’m happy to report that the hubby breathes today thanks to my kind words of encouragement.

    It’s funny you should axe that. We went to a class when Mrs Rosetta was pregnant with Max. Tonight she came across this sheet from the class of encouraging phrases for me to say to her while she’s in labor.

    It’s the funniest list of the dumbest shit ever in the history of time. I’m going to put it in a post tomorrow.

    If I said any of these phrases to her, she would laugh and then stab me in the face.

    Seriously…it’s retarded.

    We almost got kicked out of the class because we were laughing so hard we were crying.

    And she’s having a c-section so I don’t think that requires special breathing.

  107. Is the c-section a 100% lock if her water breaks before the scheduled date? Yes indeed, some of the phrases are incredibly dumb. That breathing one I could never get right in class so the Mr. was helpful that way. Oh and the CCR tunes I had playing helped bunches too. Focus music.

  108. Ted, are you gonna ban yourself for embedding that video?

  109. Yup!

  110. Has Hobbittown flooded?

  111. Sean, I’m still catching up on the last thread. Cool to see a Mustang, even cooler to see a P-38. Those Allisons and Packard built Merlins are loud. But they don’t sound nearly as good as an R-2800 powered F4U Corsair.

    Loudest thing I think I ever heard was a SR-71 Blackbird doing a flyover at an airshow. I’ve never seen a Corsair, but those were fucking awesome planes.

  112. Yeah, the Blackbird was pretty loud.

    Almost as loud as PJ in a bar.

  113. xBrad – Luckily the Hobbit Hole is in the side of the highest hill in the town.

  114. Sean – When I was at RAF Mildenhall we used to stop all conversation, including phone calls, when the Blackbird was coming or going.

  115. TTFN cool kids.

  116. I saw / heard a C-5A did a low pass at an airshow. Glad they are on our side.

  117. Oh and the CCR tunes I had playing helped bunches too. Focus music.

    Breathing exercises to “Looking Out My Backdoor” strikes me as pretty funny.

  118. A B1 flyover was the loudest plane I’ve ever heard, just when he flew over the runway, pointed skyward, and turned on the afterburners.

    Quite impressive!

  119. Breathing exercises to “Looking Out My Backdoor” strikes me as pretty funny.

    I’m pretty sure this is the best song for childbirth.

    http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Ps0MfBG5-Uo

  120. If they’d used the backdoor, they wouldn’t have needed the breathing exercises.

  121. C-Section is the way to go!

    As Joan Rivers put it, “They knock you out with the 1st labor pain, and they wake you up when the hairdresser arrives….”

    (They don’t really knock you out, though!)

    Be sure and tell Mrs. Rosetta not to try and tough out the pain afterward – the more morphine she can get in her body early on, the easier her recovery is going to be.

    And make sure that the nurses open up ALL of the valves in the morphine pump – found that out the hard way with DD#2; I kept hitting that button, but nothing ever happened…..

  122. Apparently grammar skills go out the window after 10 PM.

  123. Apparently grammar skills go out the window after 10 PM.

    Shut up, you will!

  124. Grammar skills is for losers.

  125. Oh the “discussions” I’ve been having with the libidiots on FB today.

    Thanks, Obama!

  126. Spelling too. Everyone knows that is is spelled, “skilz”.

  127. Why do I need skillz for crackas?

    RACIST!

  128. I saw / heard a C-5A did a low pass at an airshow.

    When dad was stationed in Illinois, we got to watch them load a C5. Amazing how much went into that plane.

    We then went to the end of the runway, to watch it take off. We were expecting it to use the whole runway, then slowly lumber into the air, just barely clearing the fence at the end of the runway.

    Much to our surprise, it used 1/3 of the runway, banked, and went in the opposite direction. Didn’t even get to us!

    Just wow!

  129. Hey Rosie, I’m drinking a Fat Tire beer. I didn’t know they sold it this side of the Mississippi. ‘Bout damn time.

  130. Be sure and tell Mrs. Rosetta not to try and tough out the pain afterward – the more morphine she can get in her body early on, the easier her recovery is going to be.

    And make sure that the nurses open up ALL of the valves in the morphine pump – found that out the hard way with DD#2; I kept hitting that button, but nothing ever happened…..

    There are no worries here. She knows the head of anesthesiology.

    It’s going to be like an opium den.

  131. Apparently grammar skills go out the window after 10 PM.

    Methinks direct correlation between loss of skilz and alcohol consumption.

    Howdy. Just doing an in and out. Still gotta walk Peaches & Rosie.

  132. So when are all you greedy racists gonna quit holding the credit rating hostage and pay your fair share?

    Bitch needs to get her nails done and I gotta get the chrome spinners on the Caddy detailed. Thanks for the cell phones, suckers.

  133. Fat Tire = best beer evah!

    Wife doesn’t agree, she damn near spit it out after she tried it the first time. She still calls it Flat Tire.

  134. Nope. That would be Mac n Jack’s.

  135. Methinks direct correlation between loss of skilz and alcohol consumption.

    You would be correct, dear lady.

  136. Catherine the Awesome, how was the tea party?

  137. You would be correct, dear lady.

    *proudly wears The Gold Star™ on forehead*

  138. Gold stars? What’s next? Math?

  139. Less drinking! More commenting, dammit!

  140. Thanks for the cell phones, suckers.

    Can’t tell you what that does to my blood pressure!

  141. Rosie, the partay at our home after the Grassroots training was awesome. Michael finally got to meet this hottie, Katrina Pierson, and enjoyed flirting with her a tad.

  142. When I was in Alabama, every TV station ran the commercial for state subsidized fones all the damn time.

  143. Can’t tell you what that does to my blood pressure!

    The same thing that happened to mine when the FB libidiot told me today that Obama was the “model of restraint”?

  144. Rosetta, I sure hope the lovely momma of your wunderkind yet to be born is feeling awesome and having lots of happy thoughts. Not been here to read the poats much, but been thinking about you guys mega-minutes.

    Give her a hug for me, please.

  146. Gotta scoot with poochies…

  147. xbrad – They advertise around here for the “free” air conditioners and “energy assistance”. Yeah, fuck it. I’ll buy you an air conditioner and pay your electric bill while I have to keep my a/c set at 78F in order to pay my bills. Fuckity, fuck, fuck, fuck!

    I don’t miss having an ice cold Hornsby’s Cider at all.

    Thank you beautiful. Junior’s clock is ticking so I hope he’s enjoying his last few days in the Ute Ritz because his ass is about to get evicted to the hard cold world.

  150. Compared to labor pains, recovery pain was nothing.

    And I heard a commercial on the pop station beasnette listens to, the mayor of St Louis advertising the 90 stations in and around Louis to take your kids for some free breakfasts and lunches all summer long. WTF?

  151. Will someone from the government be there to hand him a bill for his part of “Paying for things the Federal Government has no business funding”?

  152. I wish you all, especially Chief, could meet my brothers. Yes I do.

  166. Ha, they do, don’t they?

  167. 7. Placenta? WTF is that? I’m going out for some Taco Bell.

  168. 8. Dangit. Sweetie, you squeezed its head into the shape of a football.

  169. Placenta? WTF is that? I’m going out for some Taco Bell.

    Actually, same difference.

  170. Newborn babies are pretty funny looking. At birth, their skull is actually cartilage rather than bone.

    Which is why it’s OK if you drop them on their heads for awhile. The dent will come out.

  171. Babies tend to like me for some reason. I think it’s probably because of my big, fat head.

  172. I think it’s probably because of my big, fat head.

    You are probably right. There is a phase of infant development that psychologists call the “face watching period.” Babies are fascinated by faces at the point in time when they can focus their eyes and the neck muscles are strong enough to aim their heads.

    It is hypothesized that they are learning to organize sensory inputs into “schemas,” meaning, data that fits into a recognizable pattern. In other words, their first “idea” is “face.”

  173. The theory is that by studying faces, babies begin to learn how to organize reality and think.

  174. Babies tend to like me for some reason. I think it’s probably because of my big, fat head.

    Sean, maybe that’s what wimmins like about you too.

    Roamy, thanks for the video-linky.

    Dang! 9 1/2 weeks was one sexy movie.

  175. I mean, the amazing thing about babies is the sheer genius they exhibit. If you look at the rate of learning between the ages of 0 to 2, it is awesome.

  176. Seriously, ponder the intellectual leap between a newborn that is a total dumbshit, and the beginnings of speech.

    Newborn babies are actually the smartest people on the planet. We get progressively dumber as we get older, but the compensating factor, in a normal social system, is that we get wiser. We don’t just recognize reality, we filter it.

  177. In other words, the natural progression is:

    Infant>>>Speech>>>Adolescent Unbonding>>>Adult>>>Lutheran

  178. Sean, maybe that’s what wimmins like about you too.

    Not so as I’ve noticed. 😦

  179. It might be the toad in your pocket?

  180. I don’t carry the toad around with me. I do happen to carry around my sense of social maladjustment, though.

  181. Any way to jettison that? Life is short…

  182. Well, time to hit the hay, goodnight, don’t let bedbugs, etc. 😉

  187. I woke up starving, which is sorta rare for me, so I’m actually brewing some coffee rather than chicory. I splurged and got some half’n’half yesterday, so I might have a little of that and call it breffast.

  188. Is this poat plugged in?

  189. You ever use Heavy Cream in your morning hot beverage, Leon? I can’t do coffee without it anymore.

  190. How’s the lawn looking, PG?

    http://tinyurl.com/3p3oplg

  191. Oooh, Andy front paged this poat at Mother Aces.

  192. I have, it’s pretty good, but I got hazelnut coffee, so I wanted something with a slightly more milk-like flavor. I find heavy cream goes better in a french roast or a Sumatra blend. If I’m trying to jump myself into ketosis, I’ll also go with heavy cream. A couple glugs of that in 8am coffee and I often forget to eat lunch.

  193. Mrs. Pupster and I have been enjoying this for the last couple of weeks: http://tinyurl.com/3l4dety

    Purty gud, purty cheep.

  194. I bought the store brand. Not cheap, but not too bad. It’s finished burbling, so I should go get some.

  195. wakey wakey

  196. She’s uncomfortable as a mofo so I give this another two days at most.

    Yeah, I said that a couple weeks ago, too.

    Yes, I have had plenty of Braxton-Hicks contractions – been having them for months. They’re not painful, just a little uncomfortable.

    We went to bed around midnight. I had to get up to pee at 2, 4, 5, 6, and 7. Next I’m going to hike my pants up to my armpits and move to Florida.

  197. More garden building today.

  198. Found this http://www.urbanskishow.com/blog?categoryID=1 through IMAO.

    “Obama won’t take responsibility for anything he’s done. This guy could be found standing over a dead body with a knife in his hand and you know he’s still going to say it’s Bush’s fault.”

    “Sheila Jackson Lee claims conservatives are opposing Obama because he’s black. Is that the same reason I’m opposing Reid and Pelosi? Is that the same reason I’m supportive of Allen West and Herman Cain?”

    “The left keep telling you that the Tea Party people are crazy because they just want to limit government borrowing and they want to limit out of control spending. Obama burned through $239 billion of the debt limit increase in one day. How is it that the Tea Party people are the crazy ones?”

    “Obama is no longer taking pages from the Alinsky playbook. He’s now using the P.T. Barnum playbook: ‘There’s a sucker born every minute.'”

  199. Coffee with one tablespoon of cream has been my breakfast for 6 days

  200. crap. a raccoon ate about 15 eggs last night in the coop. we hadn’t gotten ’em out. ate every last one.

    grrrr

  201. *gives sohos a disapproving glance

  202. two eggs. scrambled. every day.

  203. Eggs are my typical breafast Carin. This diet is only 40 days. I will go back to protien breakfast then

  204. what diet is it? did you tell me already?

  205. Morning Y’all.

    Have I told you guys lately that I love ya?

  206. Hcg diet

  207. I don’t normally take in any calories until lunchtime or so, after I’ve done my workout (or yardwork, on the weekends). Maybe one day a week I’ll eat something early in the morning. Today I had some almond butter and dark (100% cocoa) chocolate. I made little sandwiches with it. I probably won’t eat again until 4, now, and that’ll be dinner.

  208. I tried binging that last night and got 50 pages of spam, Sohos. Do you have a short summary?

  209. Good morning! Love you right back, Ladybug.

  210. I take the Hcg drops subligually and I can only have 500 calories a day that come from a very strict combinations of stuff. You have two fruits a day either apple, orange, strawberries or 1/2 grapefruit and they can’t be the same. One protien and one veggie for lunch from beef, chicken, fish, shrip, crab, lobster and the veg is onion, tomato, lettuce (all kinds) asparagus, spinach, and a few others. Two pieces of Melba Toast per day. One TBS of cream. You can drink coffee and tea (No sugar but can use Stevia) I never use sugars. You must drink tons of water.

  211. My breakfast usually consists of a cigarette, a Pabst, and getting bitched at.

  212. Hi Herr. Hahahahahaha!

    Sounds like you have the breakfast of chumpyuns.

  213. Hi good morning Cathy! Love you!

  214. (((hugs Cathy)))

    My breakfast usually consists of a cigarette, a Pabst, and getting bitched at.

    Breakfast of champions.

  215. HAhahahahahahaha, Cathy. Simpatico.

  216. You can do the protocol in as little as 23 days but I am doing 40. Then after you finish the diet for 3 weeks you stay away from starches/sugars and the entire process recalibrates your metabolism. This is day 6 and I am down 10 pounds but it sucks!

  217. I forgot to say then same choices for dinner but it has to be different from your lunch choice

  218. 40 days and or 34 pounds is the most you can do in one cycle

  219. Your regimen sounds like it just might work, Sohos. Good luck…

  220. I forgot to say then same choices for dinner but it has to be different from your lunch choice

    Cigar and scotch, then. Got it.

  221. Simpatico! Love that word, Roamy…

    You get first Dobbs on Herr this time…

  222. ^ first dibbs …

    Sheesh!

  223. Two pieces of cold pizza for breakfast. Hartford style pizza is the best. Period.

  224. I know people who lost 30 pounds in 2-3 weeks and have kept it off. That is the main thing.

  225. good luck, sohos. 500 calories? I wouldn’t be able to get out of bed.

  226. >> Hartford style pizza is the best. Period.

    Yes. If there’s one thing Hartford is world-renowned for, it’s pizza!

    Wait, what?

  227. 10 pounds in six days just sounds unsafe to me, sohos. are you taking any other supplements? What is hcg?

  228. It’s okay to have pizza for breakfast if you call it Italian cheese toast.

  229. The queen anne’s lace in my other pasture is 6′ high. I really gotta get some more animals, I need something that eats that stuff. Seems wasteful to just rip it up and toss it in the compost.

  230. Lauraw, you’ve exceeded your calories for the day. sorry. You’re done.

  231. *sends Andy’s coordinates to Tagnash*

  232. Laura, 10lb in the first 6 days is probably fine when you’re restricting carbs, because the glucose load you carry in your blood and the glycogen load you store in your muscles requires something like 5-7 times its weight in water to be stored along with it. If you lose 10lb in week 2+, you are losing muscle along with your fat, and that’s not ideal.

  233. Leon, get a positive ID on it before you touch it? If its really 6″ tall, it could be a poisonous relative to QAL, or it could be Angelica.

  234. the qal is huge around me too. we’ve had a bumper crop this year.

  235. Wow, that’s an excellent piece of knowledge Leon! Awesome.

    Chemistry of the body is so interesting. Everything is maths. Everything.

  236. I’ve ripped up a few of the plants I’ve found out in the yard with no ill effects, but I’ll take that under advisement. I do have a few thistles out there that I’m not sure anything will eat, so I need to remember to get my gardening gloves from the old house next time I’m there.

  237. The fruit in the morning is good energy… And the type that lasts longer than say like cane sugar, so you got that going for ya. And we need those good sugars as brain food, I heard.

    Sohos, sounds like the regimen gets your body to go to it’s reserves. But I really know crap about dieting or these kinds of diets.

  238. *sends Carin’s coordinates to Tagnash*

  239. I was doing a lot of weeding yeterday. doesn’t matter what I do, because I always get welts on my arms from something.

    but a bit of benadryl applied directly and it’s all gone this morning.

  240. Good morning.

    So… why is everyone on the right calling for TurboTimmah G’s resignation. Does anyone really believe that it’s his fault Obama spent trillions and ruined our credit rating?

  241. *sends Carin’s coordinates to Tagnash*

    *lets dogs outside

  242. hy is everyone on the right calling for TurboTimmah’s resignation. Does anyone really believe that it’s his fault Obama spent trillions and ruined our credit rating?

    I dunno. timmah’s an idiot, but he may as well ride this out. does anyone think that Obama will change his socialist beliefs?

    Not I

  243. Thanks for that explanation, Leon. Makes sense. Love Queen Anne’s lace. I can almost smell it now…

  244. And we need those good sugars as brain food, I heard.

    Is that true? That might explain why about a week into phase 1 of SBD, I begin to feel…sad or something. Or just bleah. Don’t know how to explain it. But ice cream for breakfast makes it go away.

  245. Chemistry of the body is so interesting.

    Agreed. I’m kinda sad I went physics rather than chem or biochem, so I’ve had to become something of an autodidact to satisfy myself. Unfortunately, that leaves me with deep knowledge on a limited subset, and wide gaps in other areas.

  246. Why not just eat brains?

  247. I just got some paperwork from my kid’s school. they want me to do a check-mark about “race”. My choices are:

    american indian/alaska native,
    asian american
    native hawaiian/pacific islander,
    black/african american

    or white.

    You guys know what I’m going to do, right?

  248. And we need those good sugars as brain food, I heard.

    Sorta. You can make sugar if you’re getting adequate protein, and your brain runs fairly well on ketone bodies (byproducts from fat metabolism). I have read some good research suggesting that a minimum amount of starch needs to be eaten from time to time to support mucus production, though.

    Is that true? That might explain why about a week into phase 1 of SBD, I begin to feel…sad or something. Or just bleah. Don’t know how to explain it. But ice cream for breakfast makes it go away.

    That’s about how long it takes to burn through your stored sugar. After that, there’s an adaptation period for most people when their brain chemistry shifts over to ketone and fat metabolism, and that changeover can lead to small amounts of inflammation for several days. You can eat sugar and it’ll stop immediately, but then you never really adapt to running without it. Try just toughing it out for a day or two and it’ll go away.

  249. The correct answer is African-American, of course.

    Haven’t they ever heard of “Lucy”?

  250. Laura, when our son was a freshman in high school and marching in the pre season summer band camp in the 100+ degree heat, even though he was drinking water like crazy he passed out on the blacktop, broke off his front tooth, bit into his mouth, and demolished a brand new saxophone.

    Our family doc, the dentist, and the plastic surgeon all said he needed to up his sugars… And one of them suggested Jolly Ranchers in his pocket for times like this. Also, in all the suggested stuff to donate to our troops on the front lines, hard candy is on the list.

    Docs all said sugar is brain food. I don’t know crap.

  251. Sorry my Dad called. Hcg is a pregnancy hormone (safe for men and men do better than women as always) what happens is your body eats away stored fat. Not muscle. My stomach is already flat. Even though it is 10 pounds it is several inches. I can button my jeans and then slide them right off me. I haven’t measured myself b/c I can’t find the measuring tape but I am going to Counts’ moms house and will then. You aren’t really hungry b/c your body is getting what it needs. I am also taking Acedolpholus, Potassium,B12, D, and a good multi. I drink at least 10 bottle waters a day

  252. Tagnash can’t aim for shit.

  253. Carbs will support heavy activity, Cathy, so that’s not bad advice. If you’re taking in energy as fast as you burn it, they’ll work fine. “carb loading” is basically bunk, though. If you aren’t normally restricting them, you’re carrying as many as your tissues can support pretty much all the time.

    The cyclists with bananas taped to their helmets? Right idea, good implementation.

  254. ven though he was drinking water like crazy he passed out on the blacktop, broke off his front tooth, bit into his mouth, and demolished a brand new saxophone.

    Ouch. Poor thing:(

  255. *checks the Xbrad FunnehMeter™ *

    You’re looking good this morning, Xbrad… And it’s only the 7th.

  256. Oh and your protien can only be 3.5 oz. So I am weighing food before I cook it.

  257. Sohos, I think in the interest of science, you should send us nude photos of you and your flat belly. We can help you judge how many inches you’ve lost.

  258. *checks the Xbrad FunnehMeter™ *

    I think it moved.

  259. XBrad, would you agree that to really assess, we’re going to need full-body shots? I mean, it can’t just be weight lost from her tummy.

    For science.

  260. . If you’re taking in energy as fast as you burn it, they’ll work fine. “carb loading” is basically bunk, though.

    I will say, when running – i will feel it if I haven’t eaten enough carbs lately. Last long run, I had eaten a very light dinner (salad) then my eggs for breakfast. I nearly DIED.

    But, the day after a pasta dinner?

    I know it’s not all in my head, because often if I have a bad run, I think back upon what I may have done wrong, and eating is usually the culprit.

    I do think, generally though, people way too many carbs. I just don’t think they’re bad.

  261. I think you need shots of her boobs. If she starts loosing those, someone may need an intervention.

  262. Tel Aviv stock market, which trades on Sundays because they’re like, Jews and stuff, closes down 7%.

    If the Jews can’t make money, we’re doomed.

  263. Ouch to our pocketbook too, Carin. We had just replaced his sax from the one he had in junior high. But a year later, we got him and his sis Selmer Super-action 80s, because the music the band was playing was too fast for the school quality instruments. But those re some awesome years for our school in Grand National competition also… So we had that going for us.

    But our poor kid was embarrassed. We still have his freshman band picture with his mouth all beat.

  264. I actually agree, Car in. Carbohydrate to support activity (preferably from low-toxin, low gut-irritant sources), makes perfect sense for someone who’s already relatively lean. It’s balancing activity with carbohydrate intake that’s the tricky part. If you’re still trying to get lean, though, restricting them in general is probably a better plan.

  265. I will say, when running – i will feel it if I haven’t eaten enough carbs lately.

    Right, I was trying to differentiate “loading” from “not restricting”. You can’t, like, supersaturate in carbs and have more in you than fit, but if you normally don’t eat that many, then you eat a bunch, you get the equivalent sort of effect.

  266. Tel Aviv stock market, which trades on Sundays because they’re like, Jews and stuff, closes down 7%.

    I should have cashed out my 401k when the DJIA was over 12k and filled my crawlspace with casks of rum, then buried some silver and gold in the barn.

  267. That just sounds horrible for your son Cathy! Carbs are the debil…when I get to the size I want to be then I will add healthy carbs back but cake, ice cream, white bread. No thanks. My body just can’t handle it. Xbrad go to my facechimp page find the bikini pics…that is where I want to be again

  268. I shoulda said so, but that’s awful for your son, Cathy. Glad he kept going with band after that.

  269. You guys are so sweet to comment about our son. Sheesh! That was more than a dozen years ago. That kid of ours was always a great combination of fortitude and gentleness… And he hasn’t changed.

    Some day I’ll share about that year’s Grand National competition… And what he personally had to do to get himself ready.

    Now I gotta get moving to get to church. I need it this morning. Still grieving and angry about our special folks who were killed yesterday.

    Later…

  270. Breakfast was pizza, potato chips and a coke.
    I am carb loaded.

    It’s ok though, I will be watching golf later.

  271. *** IMPORTANT NEWS ALERT ***

    I received the following text message earlier from Rosetta

    Today is baby day! Mrs. Rosetta will be in the OR for the c-section within the hour. Details to follow…

  272. I have an afternoon of weedwhacking, unpacking, and sunbathing ahead of me.

  273. so I’ve had to become something of an autodidact to satisfy myself

    http://tinyurl.com/2e334ag

  274. Congratulations, prayers, and well-wishes for the Rosettas.

  275. BABY BABY BABY BABY BABY!

    http://tinyurl.com/5wrus2u

  276. Thanks, Andy. Glad to know this. I’ll have this good stuff to pray about also now.

    Smooches.

  277. Today is baby day!

    Is that the Fifth or Sixth Seal? I always get that confused.

    Give ’em hell, Mrs. Rosetta!

    Stay the fuck out of the way, Rosetta!

  278. Yay!!! Baby!!! So excited for the Rosettas!

  279. awesome!!!

  280. Yay for baby!!!!

    Guess we need someone to sub for Rosetta for BBF for a couple weeks decades.

    I nominate Car in.

  281. Baby Rosetta will have a particular appreciation for BBF, IYKWIM.

  282. I’ll expect to see “Floyd humping Junior” video posted on here shortly.

  283. Yay for the Rosettas!

  284. BABY WATCH YAY!!!!

  285. Oh and good morning

  286. It smells like fresh baby in here. Someone catch me up, I’m too lazy to read the thread.

  287. So we agreed to vote MJ off the island, right?

  288. “Someone catch me up,”

    Sohos lost 9 lbs and Leon has weeds.

    Cathy’s son passed out in the heat and mashed up his mouth and a saxaphone many moons ago.

    Jolly Ranchers are good to have in your pocket.

    Sugar is brain food.

    The Rosetta’s should have a new bald guy in the family.

  289. Scott that was awesome!

  290. Lots of prayers and good thoughts aimed at St. Louis today.

  291. Positive thoughts going out to the lovely Mrs. Rosetta, the fat bald guy and Junior. GO TEAM ROSETTA!

  292. 1.5 hour workout this morning followed by a spinach wrap with ham and lowfat Swiss cheese. I now have a large tumbler of ice water and am ready to watch golf, do laundry and bake a loaf of bread.

    Gee, Sunday is pretty much like every other day when you’re retired!

  293. I’M GONNA BE AN UNCLE!

  294. I have read some good research suggesting that a minimum amount of starch needs to be eaten from time to time to support mucus production,

    What about a maximum amount?

    Since I stopped eating dairy, mucus production has been minimul.

  295. Rats, going to be wondering all the details of rosetta spawn’s birth all afternoon.

    Someone call me at work and fill me in, k?

    I’m going with 21 inches, nearly 8 pounds.

  296. Yup. And uncles are going to be very important in the life of Rosetta Jr.

    Can’t have him not knowing what a balk or the 4-3 defense is.

  297. Beasn – I gave up milk a while ago, but just figured out that mayo on a wrap makes me phlegmy too. Guess that’s another thing I’ll have to give up. . . FML!

  298. Ok so I am saying 9lbs 4 oz and 19 inches. What yall got?

  299. w’s and/or wiserbud – how much longer is it going to be raining like a mufakka here?

    Thanks in advance.

  300. OMG OMG OMG OMG

    *so excited

  301. what’s rain?

  302. Thanks for the email notification ya dorks. I have to get on here to find out news like the world is about to have another Tea Party terrorist added to its population?

    Good Luck Mrs. Rosetta!

    remember to breathe Rosefella…

  303. Andy – Rain finished up about a half-hour ago here. So, I figure you guys should be done by 5 a.m.

  304. Happy day Rosettas!

    8lbs 12 oz 21 inches tall. Slightly wrinkled.

  305. I’M GONNA BE AN UNCLE!

    _——-

    I’M GONNA BE A FATHER!

  306. shit, I was gonna go do yard work.

    How can I go do it NOW????

  307. 8 pound 6 oz, 20 inches.

  308. I can’t believe rosie isn’t going to live blog this thing.

  309. where the hell is he?

    shouldn’t we be among the first he informs?

  310. 27 pounds and smokin a cigar

  311. I say winner gets to nickname the baby?

  312. where the hell is he?

    Mrs. Rosetta has him in a headlock screaming in his ear, “Get me MORPHINE!”

  313. Is the baby early? Or was it planned for today? It matters for my guestimate…

  314. No hints, guy. If you don’t know the details, you’re shit out of luck.

  315. Nah – she’s having a C-Section; the doctor’s doing all the work.

    Of course, once you go in for a section, the baby comes out tout suite – it’s the “putting mom back together again” that takes so long…..

    And the immediate family are the ones who get to see the young ‘un first – the Internet Aunts and Uncles won’t hear about it for awhile….

  316. I’m gonna go long. Hail Mary on baby pool.

    8 pounds 11 ounces and 22 inches long.

  317. 6 pounds / 12 ounces / 19.5 inches long

    *gives Car in ‘the plug’*

  318. 7 pound 12 oz / 22 inches

    Skinny and long!

  319. *gives Guy “the episiotomy”

    ouch. that’s gonna leave a mark

  320. Yay!

    …Hey, wait…this means Baby Rosetta will be older than Baby Peel. BOOOOOO!!!!

  321. *gives Peel “the Castor Oil” treatment.

    THat should get things moving.

    (just your bowels, though, because it didn’t do shit to start labor when I tried it with my week late #4 child)

  322. Mrs. Peel – How you feeling today, sweetie?

  323. Oooooh… baby naming.

    Rupert.

    Unless it’s a girl.

    Then I’m out of ideas.

  324. “how much longer is it going to be raining like a mufakka here?”

    Not long Andy. The sun is out here and the humidity lever is somewhere around 153%.

  325. Hahaha. Hadn’t heard the castor oil one. We had TexMex for lunch, but it was totally not spicy, so that probably won’t do much either. (Even I thought the queso was ridiculously mild, and I have basically zero tolerance for spicy food.)

    I feel fine, Chief. I have a feeling that labor is going to start relatively soon, due to some things my body is doing, but it could still be anytime.

    Crossing my fingers for Mrs. Rosetta! I hope things are going well for her!

  326. I think I found out why Lipstick is afraid of dogs

  327. Oooooh… baby naming.

    – – – – –

    Leslie. Terry. Pat.

  328. well there is evidence that moving bowels can start labor – a little kick start if you will – but if you’re not ready, nothing is going to do it.

    My cousin went into labor when she got a bit of food poisoning. the cramping, and runs … it’s all very related. Next thing you know, she was in labor.

    but, my erin just wasn’t coming out.

  329. My guess is that Richard and Edward are out.

  330. I think she was scheduled for a C-Section sometime in the next couple of weeks, but she was having contractions the last couple of days. Rosie mentioned yesterday that they were seriously considering going to the hospital Friday night because Mrs. R. was so uncomfortable….

  331. barack?

  332. My guess is that Richard and Edward are out.

    Out where? I’m sitting right here.

  333. Her water may have broken. that gets you a fast track to that section if they’re going to do it anyway.

    I had a section with #3. Unplanned.

  334. Ruprecht?

  335. I’ve heard that having sex can start labor….

    ….of course, that could just be what husbands tell their wives so that they are guaranteed to “get some” one last time!

  336. They are such assholes – politico 44

    This is essentially a tea party downgrade,” said David Axelrod in an appearance Sunday on CBS’s “Face the Nation” in which he discussed the economic developments of recent days.

    Axelrod assailed tea partiers for their efforts during the debt-ceiling debate.

    “If we had defaulted on our debt, the consequences would have been dramatic and lasting,” Axelrod said. “It was the wrong thing to do to push the country to that point. It was something that should never have happened that clearly is on the backs of those who were willing the see the country default, those very strident voices in the tea party.”

  337. I’m guessing the baby will be named: Farquaad T. Rastus III.

  338. Heywood Jablomy

  339. Drinking an entire bottle of cod liver oil worked for me with our second. I had already passed the plug so I knew she would be coming, but I did not want the bitch associate to deliver her, and I knew my doc was planning some time away.

    It worked as I planned, and my awesome doc got to the hospital just in time to deliver before he headed out of town on vacation.

  340. Mike, Mike Hunt

  341. Sandy, Sandy Shores.

  342. I drank the entire bottle – and NOTHING. I was 10 days late and desperate to avoid inducement.

  343. My prayers go with Mrs. Rosetta on angel’s wings.

    And sending a virtual bottle of vodka for Rosetta, too.

  344. Pancake…

  345. My mom told me that trick Carin…

    Dunno why it works sometimes and other times not…

  346. Time Tu…

    (back to baby naming)

  347. Broadcasting…

  348. Over…

  349. Ok, I can’t sit here all day. someone text me if we get any newz.

  350. Wow, I heard Jean Francoise Querie repeat Axelrod’s words almost verbatim on Fox, during lunch.

    Guess the talking points are out. I think they got them from Facebook, judging by liberal feeds.

  351. 7 lbs. 6 ozs., full head of hair, and bitching about how he hasn’t “…had a martini in 8 1/2 months!”

  352. Just when you think we couldn’t get any more screwed, you look around and here it comes!

    http://nation.foxnews.com/president-obama/2011/08/07/wh-working-hollywood-release-obama-warrior-movie-month-election

  353. 9 lbs 1 oz, 21-inches

  354. I agree Cyn. If that kid is half the size of Rosetta’s foot he will be all of 9 lbs.

  355. >> The sun is out here and the humidity lever is somewhere around 153%.

    Sweet. Thanks.

  356. 9ount says 7, 4 and 21 inches

  357. Mrs. Rosetta will insist that they name the baby, “Ted”.

  358. That would be Count I am on my phone

  359. Where the hell is he?

    Doesn’t he know he was supposed to UStream this?
