Obama should be careful to avoid another recession as that will probably hurt his reelection chances more than it will help.
All this unemployment stuff is funny because I have a job.
Only two sports I get excited for: College football and Olympic curling.
Not too hopeful the next president will be a good president, but there’s a near scientific certainty he’ll be a better president.
Cheney clarified to say that while he’s honored to be compared to Darth Vader, he meant the original one and not the “Nooooo!” shouter.
Cheney vows to live long enough to bury all his detractors and everyone they care about – so a couple more months at least.
Would be nice if we finally told Obama that no one really expects him to do anything about the economy so so he can stop worrying about it.
I have 6425 Twitter followers; is that worth something? “Sir, we can’t seat you without a reservation.” “But I have 6425 Twitter followers!”
When my book comes out, I better sell at least 6425 copies or I’m blocking them all and getting new followers.
I think I’m tired of making fun of Obama; I’ll try some words of encouragement instead. You can do it, kiddo!
I’ve actually forgotten who Sarah Palin is. Is she the one who never denied being a witch?
Is the Obama campaign planning on anything other than negative ads, because I don’t know how could make “He killed Osama” fill a whole 30 sec.
I hope science figures out how to resurrect the dead because I’d really like to see what Shakespeare could do with the Transformers franchise.
I guess I’d be plenty happy with just zombie Shakespeare attacking Michael Bay, though.
“If all else fails, use fire.” Great advice that extends well beyond Zelda II.
Playing these old NES games, I forgot how hard they were. But Reagan was president when they came out, so we were all much tougher back then.
A famed, intergalactic bounty hunter should be able to duck and shoot enemies at her feet.
In the original Legend of Zelda, was anyone dumb enough to pick the red potion over the heart container?
A DVD should not be able to dictate to me when I’m allowed to stop, fast forward, or skip to menu.
Wife is making chili with ground turkey. I prefer when she makes it with sky turkey.
I don’t know how, but the “shoot doors to open them” method the people of Metroid use seems like it could someday lead to a problem.
Did we all forget the true meaning of Labor Day? We did? Cool.
Despite what Kermit says, the only rainbow songs I know are his and the one from Wizard of Oz.
We have a little stuffed cow that makes moo sounds. Buttercup wants me to hold and protect her while it exists.
I just have troubled being threatened by gruff, union leaders. They’re just so quaint now.
The stuffed cow scared the dog, too. I guess I’m alone in not finding a cow’s moo to be very threatening.
I don’t think once in history has the left’s complaint about conservative rhetoric been anything other than partisan BS.
Haven’t union membership been shrinking for years? Do they really pretend to have a strategy to reverse that?
I assume the strategy will be similar to how to cause a resurgence of the typewriter.
Maybe they can make joining a union appealing to hipsters. Free rotatory phone with union membership!
You wouldn’t believe the amount of surveillance the CIA has on the teddy bear picnic.
I wouldn’t get too excited over the Twitter — probably a couple of thousand are fans of sound recordist Frank Fleming.

Sky turkey? So wait — you’re saying turkeys CAN fly?
Only two sports I get excited for: College football and Olympic curling.//
Me too. Well, that and Braves baseball.
I drive my wife crazy this time of year, but I don’t understand why. Hours on end watching college football and all the subsequent discussion shows is much more productive than buying children’s clothes online. At least it costs less.
Turkey chili? Eeeewww! That sounds like something Michelle Obama would tell you to eat.
The true meaning of Labor Day? Let me take a stab at it:
* Labor Day is the day all mothers share notes about their incredibly long and difficult child berths. They continue to talk about it until the next Labor Day.
* Labor Day is dedicated to those who have turned 50 and found it’s not getting any easier.
* Labor Day is meant to remind us that we’re way behind on our summer chores and we better hurry up. Get to work.
* Labor Day weekend really means “get ready for a storm.” In the NW, we call it “the Labor Day storm.” This year we didn’t have one – which is bad. I blame Obama.
* Labor Day = summer’s over = have to go back to school = yuk. This psychology lingers your whole life and is a source of mild dread.
Chili made with turkey???? That’s a hangin’ offense!!!
*births* – child “berths” would be on a boat. So, that’s what I’m thinking about!
Did you miss the whole climate change + retracting editor thing? Yes, I understand Zelda is WAY more fun.
Random thought: Boise State’s uniforms are a disgrace to college football.
Random thought: Georgia’s uniforms were actually somehow worse.
Random thought: Penn State and Alabama will showcase actual uniforms this week, although the Tide do put names on their jerseys – shame on them.
Perhaps Cheney should tell Hoffa, “Don’t go for a ride with someone you don’t know.” Then Cheney could announce that not only did he not regret saying it, but also that he only meant it as a helpful warning.
Use Linux. DVD’s do not dictate to Linux. Linux dictates to DVD’s.
“I think I’m tired of making fun of Obama; I’ll try some words of encouragement instead. You can do it, kiddo!”
Kiddo? Racist.
“Did we all forget the true meaning of Labor Day? We did? Cool.”
With all the commercialism, so many forget that Labor Day is really all about Jesus.
Don’t let the door hit you in the @ss on your way out.
How was that?
FormerHostage,
More like, “I know if you put your mind to it, you can keep the door from hitting you in the ass on the way out.”
That’s not possible, Frank. His head is in his ass. Ussjimmycarter put it there.
Orit Hershler is obviously an anagram. My best guess is:
Herr Sh*t Role
Others may exist.
I liked Iowahawk’s Labor Day celebratory message the best: Happy Faked Back Injury Day.
We had a laughing toy bunny that scared the Obama out of our dog and grandchildren. I have no idea why, but it’s landfill food now.
This entire Obama jobs plan will be a bailout for the unions. Makes one wonder if the jobs crisis wasn’t manipulated to get the dem’s union backers another giveaway.
Excerpt from Obama’s Job speech:
“I have a plan to create thousands of new jobs. First, I take these magic beans that I traded a cow for….”
Those toy cows last a long time. 17 years ago my Dad gave one of those to my first kid. It scared her and the cats. She’d scream, “No cow! No cow!” Ah, parenthood.
Oh, and the only real chili is venison chili. FYI.
Sure turkeys can fly I saw it on WKRP. However turkey chilli is not chili. Chili must be made with heart stopping artery clogging BEEF. It’s what’s for dinner at least that’s what I’ve been told. oops coffee break is over better get back to napping before the shop steward puts a letter in my file.
I’m pretty sure Obama isn’t worried about the economy anyway. He can’t even put on a decent game face when he pretends to care…and even HE is getting tired of the “blame Republicans” excuse.
Looks like someone spent his long weekend having random thoughts. Sky turkey, indeed!
Despite what Kermit says, the only rainbow songs I know are his and the one from Wizard of Oz.
Let me add some others for your listening pleasure:
“Sunshine, Lollipops, and Rainbows”, a hit in the mid-1960s for Leslie Gore (well, maybe not listening pleasure, but certainly listening)
“I Can Sing A Rainbow”, from the movie Pete Kelly’s Blues, in which Peggy Lee sings it
“Look to the Rainbow”, from the musical comedy Finian’s Rainbow, which has some great songs (although “Look to the Rainbow” isn’t one of them)
“Rainbow Veins”, by Owl City; I know nothing about this song and I don’t want to
If you go down to the woods today
You’d better not go alone.
It’s lovely down in the woods today
But safer to stay at home……… Safer to stay at home?! What kind of subversive attitude is that? Of course we’re keeping an eye on these furry terrorists…besides it’s easier then guarding the borders and yet gives the impression we are accomplishing something of value to the nation….Your Government, hard at work.
There’s always “Rainbow in the Dark” by Ronnie James Dio
Twitter? Is your name Frank Flamming? If so, now I get it! “slaps forehead as light comes on…”
Buttercup is logging all of your funny stuff in her ROM! When she is about 14, payback shall commence! It will start when she brings home Wibur, her new beau! He will be 23, live in a trailer home on the outskirts of Boise and he will ride an old Harley. His friends will call him “Hook-up” for some reason… Anyway, Buttercup will look good on the back of his 1983 Harley Super Glide as it sputters and lurches down the Highway (No Brakes and questionable clutch, by the way). It’s ok, though because back at his crib, Hook-up has an equally endearing 1980 GMC pickup with 300,000 miles. He uses it to carry extra oil and spare parts for his Harley but finds them falling through the rotting floor a frustration right now. A job? Yea… Hook, is trying to “find himself” but is pretty sure once he get’s his teeth replaced that he will be highly sought after by Hollywood for a remake of Easy Rider! Other than that, he seems to “get by” with no visible means of support! Good Girl Buttercup!!!
When my book comes out, I better sell at least 6425 copies or I’m blocking them all and getting new followers.
We can all wear purple robes and stuff.
I used to be scared of the giant, albino gorilla that lived in the closet in the north bedroom of my folks old house. It was the creepy closet with no door and a sloping ceiling, with a pole for hanging clothes just to the left as you walked in, so you never knew for sure what was hiding behind it, and a light bulb with a pull-string switch on the right, but you had to reach into the closet to reach the string which is when the gorilla would have got me if I’d ever been stupid enough to do that, but I never did, so he never did, so I guess he’s still in there. I wonder if he gets bored sometimes. But as far as I know, he never made mooing sounds.
Just as no expects the Spanish Inquisition. No one really knows what occurs during The Teddy Bears’ Picnic!
