Hello Again, Great cartoon in Friday's LA Daily News.....A man is watching President Bush deliver his acceptence speech on TV.....Bush has his arms in the air triumphantly on the screen.....The man says to his wife & child "I didn't know things were so good!".....Before anybody says "Liberal Media Bias", the LA Daily News ALWAYS endorses Republicans.....Presi

*Gideon, The Dead were Truckin' on the freeway! I seem to hear "copasetic" an awful lot. I think some people say it just to try to impress people with their "vocabularies". BTW, I LOVE the Live Dead album! My favorite cut is Love Light, all fifteen and a half minutes of it.--Anne *Mason, It's like, you know, how people, you know, say some words, you know, and like read 'em, you know, you know, and like, you know, it's all good, you know,
*Kelly, I considered listing "dude"! Maybe I should have re-considered! My friend goes "dude", and I say "dude", and my friend is like, "dude", and I'm all like, "dude", so my friend says "dude", and I go "dude"..... Thank you, Kelly -- Anne
*King, Arm & Hammer had an amicable divorce. Arm agreed to provide support for Hammer! -- Anne
Hello Again, Every New Year's, Simpsons creator Matt Groening does something called "Forbidden Words" in his weekly comic strip, Life in Hell. He lists words & phrases that he's sick of or feels should be out of vogue. Having heard several like that earlier, I'd like to make a list like that of my own. Are you also sick of hearing.....? My bad.....Bi
Hello Again, This blog is about famous twosomes, people, places & things that come in pairs. As Just the Two of Us plays in the background..... Johnson & Johnson.....Gaffers & Sattler.....Lennon-McCartney.....Heckle & Jeckle.....Laurel & Hardy.....Sonny & Cher.....Minneapolis-St. Paul.....Jack Lemmon & Walter Matthau.....Ralston-Purina.....AM/FM.....
Sorry about that, Chief! Where's Barbara Feldon been, anyway? -- AA
*King, more intrigue here than any 10 episodes of Get Smart! -- Anne
*Insightful, thank you for the nice words! Your blog was also full of good words! Keep it up! *Gideon, I'm not a wealthy woman, so when I do go to Vegas, I either stay at a motel or with a cousin there. If you knew my cousin, you would understand why I prefer the motel! *Lee, I didn't turn 21 until the mid-90's, but my parents have long memories. Long story short, they said that LV was much better run before the corportations to
Hello Again, I don't get it, if Israel's our friend & ally, why do they need to spy on us?.....You read it here earlier: the Kobe case cookie has crumbled.....Court TV is one of the most disappointing things on television.....It could and should be sooo much better.....If you ask me, Zell Miller is the biggest flip-flopper in politics.....Only 61 more days un
*King, the one with the scarf looks like someone I saw on Santa Monica Blvd.! Better not let a Hokie get near him! -- Anne
*KIng, my knowledge of Dylan songs comes mainly from going through my parents' records! I'm still wondering what Rainy Day Women #12 & 35 means. When my mother told me what Ballad of a Thin Man was all about, I keeled over in laughter, even though I'm sure Mr. Dylan was very serious & intense when he wrote it. They'll stone you when you're trying to be so good! -- Anne
Lee, first & foremost, this reply space is meant for responses to Insightful's blog, but I guess I made myself fair game by responding. Fair enough, I guess. All I know about Nevada is that because of the gaming industry, state taxes and business conditions are different there. Many out of state companies incorportate in your state & Delaware. The only thing I was saying, without putting one party over another, like you did, was to leave politics
*King, Ah! It's a toikey! Why any school would name themselves after a turkey is beyond me, but if it works for them, ok fine. Now if I could only find out the difference between a lion and a Nittany lion. --Anne
*King, in all actuality, he HAS made that Santa Monica reference! Lemme guess the Dylan songs. Hmmm. How about It Takes a Lot to Laugh, It Takes a Train to Cry and Ballad of a Thin Man? Or Subterreanian Homesick Blues and Desolation Row? They're selling postcards of the hanging.....Anne
Hello Again, A man who owns an apartment building down the street has been ragging on the neighborhood liberals.....He's been extolling the virtues of all things Bush.....I'd take exception except for one thing.....He's still a Canadian citizen, and he's admitted that he's never voted in his life.....He came here when he was 9, and is around 61 now.....I've a
Insightful, you get an insightful from me! As a native of the Golden State, it is my hope that one day, the voters here, most of whom probably came from other states, will come to the realization that electing actors to public office is not a good idea. The recall and his leadership so far have made me embarrassed to be a Californian. I predict that he will not seek a second term in 2006. Unlike his movie career, he's discovered that he has to go
*Kelly, No prob! UFC stands for Ultimate Fighting Championships. Combatants fight each other in an octogon-shaped cage, surrounded by the most blood-thirsty fans in sports. No gloves, no shoes, no headgear, only a cup for any kind of protection. There's very few rules, and believe me, I would rather be stuck in a regulation boxing match than a UFC match! Former wrestling stars Ken Shamrock, his sister Ryan & Tank Abbott either are or have been in
Hello Again, I can't believe that the same guy who made Porky's, one of the funniest movies ever, also made Superbabies 2, one of the worst movies, ever!.....I also can't believe Howard Stern, as part of his movie deal, will remake Porky's.....Why?.....I've made references in the past to my friend Lorna, who is a budding actress.....She's quite attractive,
*King, Jimmy is Jimmy Nicol, who played drums for the Beatles in Austrailia when Ringo got very ill. He was called The con-Temporary Beatle. He's still known for that brief stint today! I left out Billy Preston because 1) he was already an established rock star when he played on Get Back/Don't Bring Me Down and 2) a mere technicality: he was never billed as a Beatle. Your two nominations deserve a great big ROLL CALL! As
Hello Again, While listening to the John & Jeff syndicated radio show earlier, they were sending "a shot" out to listeners who had called in earlier and gave their names to the producer, for the sole purpose of having their names mentioned when J&J salute "third shift" workers. It reminded me of a former DJ here in LA, who for many years would take down the
*King, you keep your hands off my fries! hee hee -- AA
King, you are waaay too modest! You deserve more credit than someone with a Diner's Club card! lol
Hello Again, Early this afternoon, I went to a favorite diner.....The food is good & reasonably priced.....The waitress asked "What'll ya have, Hon?".....I knew that she meant that in a maternal way.....I ordered a deluxe cheeseburger, crispy fries, Coca-Cola & coffee.....Yes, I drank both at the same time.....The cheese on the burger was melted just perfectl
*Thatoneguy, I checked & doublechecked, NYU is definitly the Privateers, along with UNO, so there are most assuredly two of 'em! *Locamama, thank you. Mine was the Toreadors, and that's no bull. I'll bet Heidelberg College is very scenic. Maybe Paramount would have had better luck if they had filmed The Prince & Me, one of moviedom's biggest recent bombs, there. I think that the Student Prince nickname is very cool & unique. <BR
