“WARNING: Contents may explode when blown up with dynamite.”
Noticed the UK has something called “Summer Bank Holiday”. Too lazy to even come up with a pretense for getting a day off.
Guess we’re done with space now. Our future is high-speed rail. That’s right: Trains!
How old does Buttercup have to be before she can describe me to others as “cold and aloof”?
Obama 2012: “I did stuff to the economy.”
Obama is losing to a generic Republican in polls. How’s he polling versus a rock with googly eyes on it?
I had a pretty good childhood for the parts that weren’t spent stuck down a well.
Remember to also love your enemies, especially if your enemy is Catwoman.
Apparently Betty Ford started drinking heavily after Carter was elected. Did that make her different from any other U.S. Citizen?
If you’re an American who responds to class warfare attacks, please murder yourself to help the economy.
Was watching the first episode of Star Trek: The Next Generation on Netflix. It’s like what liberals in the 80s thought the future would be like.
Opinion seems to be that Star Trek: The Next Generation stopped being stupid when Riker grew a beard.
So Flashpoint is SWAT in Canada? What conflicts do they deal with? Maple syrup smugglers?
$350 for wine? That must come in a really fancy box.
I once paid $5 for a bottle of Budweiser while in NYC. That seems even dumber that $350 wine.
If you ever accidentally drop proof into pudding, the defense will have it thrown out.
I won’t waste my time is a museum of “fine” arts. I only like “good” and “very good” arts.
If you’re elected president, do they have an XBox at the White House or do you have to bring your own?
Good rule of thumb is that you’ve become neglectful on weeding when they’re taller than you.
Yeah, I think at this point its less “weeding” and more “deforestation”.
Good thing the blogoversary is over and you are no longer begging for revenue increases. Didn’t Boehner make it clear that we would not stand for any new taxes?
Time to get your fiscal house in order and cut spending. I mean really, does Buttercup need a new diaper every time she expells a batch of pureed carrots and peas? I think not.
I was in New York City in 1988. I had a couple of hours to kill so I walked into the Waldorf Austoria. Went into the bar and ordered a Scotch and Soda. The bartender said that will be $12.00 please. I just about choked on my drink. I asked what if I had ordered a call drink, he said that would be around $20.00 depending on the brand… He was a retired NY City cop and had some fun stories to tell but I didn’t get drunk at $12.00 a pop!
Coarse art is much better than fine art.
Canadian flashpoint is there to make sure right wingers giving speeches are kept from harming the hordes of cursing, protesting students that get offended by non-pc words being spoken out loud.
Generic republicans tend to be better at campaigning and governing than the actual ones we get stuck with.
I’d rather have the rock with googly eyes than Obama.
As for me, I like the thick arts.
So let’s say we build a high speed train that does like 300 miles per hour using tax payer money. Won’t then the safety nazis move in and start slowing it down because it’s going too fast. And once they are done, then the environmentalists will move in and start yapping about how much fuel we could save if we slowed her way down and pretty soon she will be chugging along at 55 mph and we will have shot ourselves in the foot once again? Yea, thought so…
I once paid $5 for a bottle of Budweiser while in NYC. That seems even dumber that $350 wine.
The price tag, or being in New York City? I’m with Hank Williams, Jr., on the subject of New York – just send me to hell or New York City, it’d be about the same to me.
Obama gets his crisis management skills from the first season of Star Trek:TNG. Something happens and everyone stands around useless and pontificating about their liberal beliefs won’t let them do anything.
Frank, all your back yard needs is a little Agent Orange. Keep them weeds down, you never know when illegal aliens (or RON PAUL !!111!!11) could be hiding out in them.
Rock…paper…scissors…hell, even a copy of Abba’s Greatest Hits would be better than Lord Boldadork.
Real men spit out Budweiser and call for a glass of water. At least water isn’t Belgian or adjunct.
Well, you’ll miss out on the masters. Neither the Museum of Good Art, nor even the Museum of Very Good Art have Michelangelo’s Crucifix in a Jar of Pee or Vermeer’s Feces on Canvas
When I was in London, where there is a museum for everything, I stumbled across the Museum of Gardening. It was very cool even though I don’t like gardening. On the other hand, should you have the misfortune of finding yourself in Paris, visit the Les Invalides, a.k.a. the French museum of military history. You’ll get to see Napoleon’s horse, which is not only really ratty, it is also the size of a pony (the guy in the picture isn’t very tall). His ratty dog is also there, and I kid you not, it’s almost as tall as his horse.
These are things you can learn in museums.
Once upon a time in the eighties, I was in Georgetown, and I went to the bar to buy a couple of brews (likely Budweiser — This is the famous Budweiser beer and such). I tossed a tenner on the bar. The bartender took it, held out his hand and said to me, “You’re in Georgetown, now.”
$5?…for Budweiser???? How much for beer?
Weeding not needed. Naturalized is a cool catch phrase for being a lazy butt. Speaking of lazy butts, my teen age daughter comes stumbling out of her room and says “I woke up at 5 am and tossed and turned until now (12:30). That’s hardly restful!” Buttercup isn’t far behind
What to do about the weeds: Options:
1) Don’t look at them.
2) Nothing. Let them go to seed and spread. Your neighbors and Gaia will love you.
3) Burn them and run the risk of starting a wildfire.
4) Yank them out and leave the roots so they grow back. Must preserve the ecosystem!
5) Water them (and listen to them shout Woo Hoo!). This softens the soil allowing you gently pull them up by their roots. Loosen soil if necessary first.

“Was watching the first episode of Star Trek: The Next Generation on Netflix. It’s like what liberals in the 80s thought the future would be like.”
Exactly like it…except, of course, without a space program.
Ha! Burma is short!
DamnCat says you gotta pull those weeds because there’s no room for him to go in there. At least that’s what I thought I heard him say.
@Marko: As Jimmy Cash once sang, “It ain’t me.” I should have also pointed out that the horse is on a stand, so truth be told, Nappy actually rode a Shetland — just as he was portrayed in Time Bandits.
Question: Who’s buried in Napoleon’s mausoleum?
Answer: The military hopes and dreams of France.
For the record…as much as I do love googly eyes, the rock must be registered a Republican and be an actual fiscal conservative to get my vote.
On the weeds, one word: Machete!
So I’m to believe that that link goes to a picture of weeds?
I hover my mouse over and see that it goes to yfrog, so naturally I assume there’s a better than even chance it goes to a picture of Anthony Wiener’s junk.
I don’t feel lucky, so I ain’t going there.
Oops, sorry.
my comment on the weeds should have gone here, and not at the next post.
(some of those weeds looked vaguely suspicious to me – should you really be posting something incriminating like that on the interwebs?)
