You’re in a restaurant, you hear someone blurt out, “Hey, I know that guy!”
You know they’re referring to you, and that it’s probably not good. There’s only one thing to do – hide. Happens to me all the time, and I love it.
The subsequent yelling and slapping part followed by a ride to the police station isn’t much fun, but it’s well worth it, especially when it happens on
The Overnight Open Thread.
shhhh…..you’ll wake the patients….
@ coldwarrior:
Yeah. Poppa was discharged to rehab yesterday afternoon, and it don’t look good. I’m not in the best of spirits, so I’m going to be quiet for a while.
@ Bunk X:
oh my.
what happened?
@ Bunk X:
Take care of the family and yourself.
@ Bunk X:
Awh, Bunk…
I’m sorry to hear that.
@ coldwarrior:
Brain bleed.
@ CynicalConservative:
CC, thank you for the song a few nights ago.
I saw it.
@ Calo:
Hello friend, something soothing and maybe somber in respect.
Could be wrong.
@ Calo:
No worries, catch up when you can, blogs aren’t the IRQ chat world (not a bad thing). This is the limit of social media that I’m willing to participate in (and sporadically at that).

there was a period of time in my life where i thought pink floyd was following me, everywhere i went they were playing, it finally culminated with the pgh show of that tour. i saw tham something like 8 times in 6 years starting in belin in 88 and ending inpgh in 94
@ CynicalConservative:
Yes, you have your limits on social media sites.
But, I always enjoy your opinion when you dare to espouse it.
Agreed upon or disagreed about.
@ coldwarrior:
Only saw them twice myself. So much of their art resonates with me that I can’t help but offer ones that strike me at the moment. Very emotional overall.
/me
@ CynicalConservative:
FYI, didn’t mean to post the whole album, just the initial track.
/…
@ CynicalConservative:
Well, the whole track is welcomed.
Never saw them in person -- I missed out.

i’ve never heard this before. i think i rather like it. especially the first track, cluster one. it’s one of those songs that grabs hold of your brain and never let’s go.
@ Kirly:
CC always gives some great utoobage.
A stealthly friend on the OOT.
And, I am glad to see your knee is responding to pool therapy Kirly.
@ Bunk X:
Bunk, very sorry to hear that. Will keep him and your family in our thoughts and prayers.

GoP meme: Time for Barak to be honest.
@ darkwords:
Barry O honest? Yeah, like THAT’S gonna happen.

Given that he’s a completely fabricated character, I’m not even sure what that means.
@ darkwords:
Everybody should endeavor to try a new experience once in their life.
@ Calo:
Part of it. We’re still not sure what happened, except that Poppa couldn’t get out of his chair, was on the floor for several days before we knew something was wrong. Scary as shit. At least he’s still talking and joking.
Warning to any of you folks with elderly parents living on their own -- check in on them daily, just in case.
And have a contingency plan.
@ AZfederalist:
Muchisimas gracias to you and others who have expressed concern. We’re gonna be in wait-and-see mode for a while, but a lot of questions were answered today.
@ Alberta Oil Peon:
Somehow your comment was funny to me. Thanks.

That’s what I thought from the very first moment: nothing is genuine with this character.
@ Guggi:
Maybe they’re going to release the source code used to program him?

Or where is the button to switch him off ? (metaphorically speaking)

Have to talk to the HR lady today about visa application timing. The little info I have appears to suggest I will never be here long enough at one stretch to get the job done. Ugh. It wasn’t this hard the last time here… Thank you Presidente Morales.
On a related note, I see the PRI is going to take over Mexico again. That ought to help…

@ Mike C.:
More efficient, anyway
@ lobo91:
Still off my “will travel” list unless and until I see huge security improvements. A pity -- Reynosa in particular was pretty good duty, and Villahermosa was tolerable. Vera Cruz, Poza Rica, Tampico and Cd. de Pemex, not so much.
Good Mornin All…let me see what
should I do today?>LOL
it’s a tax Pelosi….the demonrats are trying
to get out from underneath the truth
@ mawskrat:
If it’s not a tax, then it is UNconstitutional. Maybe Pelosie Galore is arguing that it is unconstitutional? Dumb c*nt.
@ Guggi:
CrackBerry…
Here’s my advice to the UN about how to get its mojo back on global warming: Accept reality. Stop making energy more expensive. Start telling the truth.

Don’t tell the Australians that. They just implemented a carbon tax of $23 a ton.

Just a suggestion: On July 4, there’s a move to have the Declaration of Independence read all across America. What about doing a ‘Live’ edition where we can call in & read a section?
mfhorn wrote:
That is a fantastic idea!
Well, the reading of the Declaration of Independence is a great idea in itself, of course, but your idea just made it even better. seeing as how it will most likely be raining here and in the low 90s, it’ll probably be too cool for me to be in the pool so i’m in!

thanks. it’s definitely a problem. staying home today due to the pain and swelling. it’s weird. the pain isn’t even where the surgery was. i’m sure it’s just that i’m now trying to use a muscle in a normal way after 2+ months of hobbling around on it.
