Great opening. Um, I don't watch too much TV, but a couple of comments. I used to think Ellen DeGeneres was quite funny, her early stuff was really good, her show was pretty good. But the show really went south when she came out as a lesbian.

Thanks you for your prayers. I always get nervous when I fly.

You should have seen me this morning. Even though I got ready in 5 mins. I looked marvoolus! LOL, I didn't wear my pearls, but I'm sure I made the Guild proud, HA! HA!

And I say something about Rosie O'Donnell also. I thought she was pretty good in Sleepless in Seattle and A League of Their Own. I even watched her show occasionally. But she jumped the shark when she blasted Tom Selleck, and then really went bonkers when she came out. (Hmmm, do we see a theme here?)

I liked this comment they have on Fox News:

"Geraldo IS the Ted McGinley of network news channels. If the bushy mustachioed one is on your dial, chances are good that your televised source of information has turned into a self contained farce machine. But don't tell him that, he's packing and may take you out - As long as the cameras are rolling"

(But I still love Fox!)

You always make us proud Teacup! Do they still serve adult beverages on airlines? Maybe that would help. :-)

Oh look who's here!!!

Lt. Gov. of Maryland and Democratic gubernatorial candidate Kathleen Kennedy Townsend, left, waves to the crowd with Sen. Hillary Rodham Clinton, D-N.Y, right, at a fund-raiser, Wednesday, Oct. 16, 2002, in Bethesda, Md.

My favorite shows are, The Soparanos, "24" and "Alias." (And WWE, tee hee hee).

Geraldo IS the Ted McGinley of network news channels.

I have absolutely no idea who Ted McGinley is,,,,, I'm assuming it is a bad thing to be like him.

Hello to everyone. I've stopped at home to change clothes and head out again. Best Wishes, Get Well Soon, Happy Birthday and Prayer for any who have requested them.

I don't know what I did to the link for the home page... If you want to get there click the link at the top.

I liked Ellen too, until.... it came out of the closet!!

From JTS:

ELLEN

Jumped The Shark when... Votes
A Very Special...(Ellen Comes Out) 48
Exit...Stage Left (Adam) 14

More after that, but seems most people agree with us. Comments:

* Ellen is gay? What a shocker.
* When one of the supporting original cast, adam, left the show.
* When Ellen became "just" a lesbian.
* While Ellen might like to think that her show was a victim of intolerance, the real problem was that it was never very good to begin with. Straight or gay, her character just wasn't funny.
* Thank God its over.
* When Ellen decided to admit that she is gay and she felt compelled to remind us week in and week out And she needed to tell us about all the gay things she did. The shark she jumped was gay too!!! "Not that there's anything wrong with that."

Why thank you sweety ;^)

Yes, they do, and I sometimes have a glass of wine, only I'm traveling at 6AM, hee hee hee.

Did you hear the lastest on the DC sniper? He did his dirty deed in "9" days with "11" victims. "9-11" some pointy headed types think they guy is done, and was Al Queda. What do you think?

Oh, that's funny about Geraldo! Fox survives because he's hardly ever on!! Whew!

Didn't realize about the 9-11 days and victims. I just don't know. Could be a crazy trying to really scare up the fear by using those numbers, if he is done. He might have been scared off for now by all the witnesses and survailance planes, or maybe moving to another area to continue.

But al Qaeda could very well be behind it, no doubt.

On Fox (network) tonight at 9:00, John Walsh devotes an hour to trying to catch the murdering coward.

Clinton & Carter Entwined In Embrace of History
October 17, 2002

What we have in North Korea is another monumental Clinton administration screw-up dropped into George W. Bush's lap. We are only now beginning to see the real damage that the Clinton administration inflicted on this country and its position in the world. The examples run from September 11th to North Korea, from the Chinese being able to orbit ICMBs and put multiple warheads on each, all the way through to a newly nuclear India and Pakistan.

Those of us who thought that Clinton's legacy would be corruption and sleaze were only half right. It's going to be far worse. All those treaties, bilateral agreements and Rose Garden ceremonies were the actions of an appeaser that have seriously damaged our national security. I think Clinton just didn't want to face problems. He didn't want to do anything to stop his supposedly roaring economy, so he presided over a "nothing" administration.

When Bill Clinton ran in 1992 on the themes "putting people first" and "it's the economy stupid," hammering George H.W. Bush for spending too much time in foreign policy, I said, "You wait. When the history of this guy is written, his reputation and legacy are going to be done in by foreign policy snafus and nightmares because he was openly disdainful of it." He's a masterful spinner, so he blames the current administration for all the problems he left us. But that doesn't change the fact that this is his legacy, or that we confronted the North Koreans with evidence that they'd built nukes and forced them to admit it.

The bottom line is, before Clinton came to office, Pakistan and India did not have nuclear weapons. Now they do. Before he came to office, Red China was unable to target American cities with nuclear warheads. Now they can. Before he came to office, North Korea did not have nuclear weapons. Now they do. And while he was in office, he did nothing to stop Iraq from its nuclear weapons development.

At least When Hitler Invaded Poland, Neville Chamberlain Admitted His Mistake

Clinton simply followed in the footsteps of another foreign policy luminary, the Nobel Appease Prize-winning Jimmy Carter. Carter ran to North Korea almost without permission, and saved Clinton from having to make a decision. (See audio link below.) Have you ever noticed that the left loves anti-American dictators like North Korea's and Cuba's and the PLO's, but they can't take pro-American dictators like the Shah of Iran?

Some of this stuff is just laughable. February 5, 2002's New York Times recounted Bill Clinton speaking after dinner one night at the Waldorf-Astoria at the World Economic Forum. "On North Korea, I have a totally different take," he said. "I figure I left the next administration with a big foreign policy win." Oh really? Clinton also gave a September 2000 speech at Georgetown where he claimed that stopping the proliferation of WMDs was his "very top priority."

You can hear me read more fanciful claims from Clinton's speech in the audio link below – such as claiming he'd kept Saddam completely in check with the embargo. That embargo is Swiss cheese! Why, the U.S. State Department has even caught Saddam exporting food - and you people blame the sanctions and not the dictator for starving his people! These people take any excuse to look at evil and not see it. So when Jimmy Carter called and said that Kim Il Sung was a cool guy, Clinton jumped at the chance to pass more impotent UN resolutions or sign another meaningless piece of paper.

HA! HA! HA! HA! I bet she has all kinds of folks around her all the time telling her she's smart, and pretty and all of that. Too bad they get paid to tell her all that stuff. She ought to quit before it's to late. Wait! it's already too late. The whole world knows she's dumb, HA!

Good article from Rush. My take on x42 is that he didn't want to make the hard decisions, the leadership decisions. All of his polls and focus groups told him what to do, and he did the popular things (economy, keeping a false economy going, bombing a country to redirect the attention from his own misbehavior, etc.) Miss Marple is forming a posse to hunt him down if the US is ever hit with a nuclear or WMD. I'm in...

Good site! My husband and I collect fun sites for our mutual insomnia, and that went right in the faves!
"Beauty and the Beast" went down the tubes when Linda Hamilton left...that was my 2 cents!
