mopar,
That’s absolutely Wagnerian, dahling.
Bxgrl;
Ah, always trying to pin it on the Republicans. Wait, I got it: this failure was a sinister plot by Palin and Bush! Yes, that’s it. It’s Bush’s fault, once again!
By the way, I didn’t know that Saturday Night Live was controlled by those hateful Republicans. Did you see SNL last Saturday? If you didn’t, I suggest that you go to Youtube and check out the skit they did about the President. A little bit more scornful than anything Rush or Beck are saying these days.
hehehehehe.
mopar…where did you buy?? Roughly speaking.
benson,
I know we tend to disagree about almost everything, and I don’t expect to persuade you. but I just don’t see that the stakes were so high on this. It’s his (adopted) and Michele’s home town, it’s a sales pitch, it took a day, he’s not the only one in his admin working on those other problems, and our national security wasn’t at stake. It makes a great right wing talking point, but I don’t buy it as reality. But I agree, he shouldn’t have bothered. Were you for or against NYC’s 2012 bid and do you think W should have gone to bat for it?
benson- forgot to add, hope your wife is feeling better.
I like to watch a lot of the foreign athletes.
“Al Lewis as Grandpa on The Munsters in 1964”
ROFL, Biff! You and I clearly watched too much (of the same) television growning up! BTW, did you ever see Al Lewis in person when he had his restaurant, Grampa’s Bella Gente, on Bleecker in the Village? He looked exactly the same as he did in the Munsters.
Maybe people have more important things to worry about- the Olympics? Not so much.
The renovation is going well. The electricians started Tuesday and the dust is flying. They are almost done wiring the top two floors. Meanwhile, I have been trying to corner the market on primitive light fixtures as fast as I can, and was lucky enough to find a Victorian box entry light in my favorite color.
I also found this, the most extraordinary light fixture in the history of the world, and I have to share it with you. I call the style Victorian Viking d!ldo. Probably go great with the plushie couch in this weekend’s NYT design mag. What do you think?
