Her weight was down almost another two pounds. The mass in her stomach is worth watching, too. Meanwhile, she charged the front door barking this just now to welcome Skyler home. She perked up pretty fast. Two days of meds and she actually almost ran to the door.
I was thinking last night “we’ve seen this movie before....”
Glad to hear she’s doing better. Meds are good.
Seeing universities having bomb threats called in. Hell breaking loose feels imminent under this moron.
Chaos for sure, but since when does Al Qaeda call in warnings? They would just blow them to smithereens.
As I saw on another thread
Al Qaeda is alive,
Our emabassies are burning,
And Chrysler is Italian.
True-and it is not a movie that needs to be shown again-ever. Do we really need a president ever so often who is so convinced of his star power that he campaigns for his own re-election while the world burns? I’ll bet Nero never thought he’d have wannabees after a couple thousand years...
New Boardwalk Empire this Sunday.
Chaos is what terrorists do best-and everybody has to run around putting out the fires, because no one knows which are real and which are decoys. With a clueless amateur in charge, they are having a frightfest while he stands around like a deer in the headlights-or maybe that infamous rabbit...
Excellent - our whole family watches this show - kids will come over for dinner too - win/win!
That 70's Show.
If it’s the 70s, then we’ll have a lot of snow and the Steelers will win the Super Bowl.
I’ll be in the basement listening to my Styx albums and playing Atari.
(If Obama is Carter, where is our Styx this time? They wrote numerous anthems to lift up the spirits of the downtrodden and celebrating the spirit of the worker.)
For example, his State Department tries to mollify fanatical Middle Eastern mobs with a disgusting "pre-apology" even as we could see the riot reaching the walls of our Egyptian embassy.
Then, Romney becomes the object of criticism by the Media Hit Parade for plainly speaking the truth of the situation, while the Empty Chair orients himself with the direction of the prevailing winds before addressing the issue. Of course, choosing a position that first puts America at fault is a criterion he holds fast to.
I think it's rather ironic that SNL picked a comic by the name of "Pharaoh" to portray The One -- you can just see him decked in royal garb, holding the chariot reins with that smug countenance and looking down a chin held high.
While it's debatable that he actually received the "worst economy ever" from George W. Bush, it's too bad that Obama didn't inherit a core set of AMERICAN principles to govern by, which the former President held without question. Thank God we have and are able to train heroic men and women willing to defend this country, since it appears that our Campaigner-in-Chief is unwilling to do so...
A++ Obama owns this mess. Romney will fix it.
No Revis Island on the banks of the mighty Monongahela Sunday.
DH came home last night with an entertaining story. The loud mouth Dem at his office was on a rant carrying on about “apologizing” for a film while the embassy was being overtaken. He was livid. DH was still chuckling. First time he heard the guy critiquing theWon. Usually, he’s a fan.
No? I expect to see some Tebow wildcat. Or at least the threat of it.
I’m hoping the defense stands up to Sanchez better than they did to Manning. Except for the neat little mind game that Polamalu pulled on him, Manning was able to do what he wanted.
And here’s hoping we can get through a game without losing another offensive lineman. Cause we have no more in the cupboard.
It’s going to depend on the DB play.
Now that the Brian Scottenheimer era is over, Sparano seems committed to getting the ball out quickly.
First time in Six years I’ve not been screaming DELIVER THE EFFING BALL for 60 minutes.
I think this should be a pretty even game with the injuries on both sides.
A far better benchmark of where the jets have progressed, than playing against the Jill’s and the Amish Popgun
That is funny, and I’ll bet he got a kick out of it. I think a lot of staunch Obama worshippers have gotten a jolt from the reality cattle prod the last couple of days-people being murdered doing their jobs when evil runs loose is a wake-up call.
Good God in heaven...Twitchy has a page on the FPL saying Romney is arrogant to run against theWon. Was Obama supposed to run unopposed? This is a joke, right. He didn’t really say that did he? Even FPL cannot be that stupid.
