Is that soy chai latte spitting or for distance?

Hey, you asked for some more fighting. Yes, I "phoned it in", but you got it. Anything pithy from Paigow today?

Ooh, a Post Hoc, complete with my favorite term "phone it in". Like you are so good every other day but Phoneday!

I did not stake a claim to pithiness today. You did. Before you Post Hocked it from a Pithy Post to a Phone In.

Just sad. But buck up little soldier! maybe you will come up with something really special so you can buy yourself that butt plug you always wanted.

Sort of, but with far more subtlety. The four questions at the Passover seder all stem from one question - "Why is this night different from all other nights?" Thus, LFM was jibing me by saying how would my Ahnold costume be different from my behavior any other night.

Why am I explaining jokes with cultural references outside her ken to Paigow? It's like trying to explain why the sky is blue to a 7-year old. One feels a moral obligation to not deceive the child that rainbows are "magic" or something, but you know that there is no way to get the child to understand the electromagnetic spectrum and how light refracts at different angles based upon its wavelength. Meanwhile, the child is so pleased with herself that she simply understood the obvious "passover" reference "as passed over," which is clever for the child, that maybe I should just smile and say "yeah, that's good."

I wasn't pleased with myself. Poor mental midget, dtb didnt get it, so I helped her out. Apparently only part of the way. Must be nice to be A Jew so you can get LFM's Bilmores. I wish Kwanza had Special Evenings With Questions so that I could post an Erudite and Pithy One Liner like LFM.

Why do gays smoke so much? Slate asks. http://slate.msn.com/id/2086565/

And I wonder.

Actually, the answer they give - no kids - seems a no brainer.

But the article is interesting anyway, as is this one:

Do daughters cause divorce?

This re line is driving me crazy.

A club I frequented in my single days played "Let Me Clear My Throat" at least once a night for years.

I can smell the stale cigarette smoke and the spilled crown from across the years.

Edited to add to the soundtrack of my life: DJ Kool and David Allan Coe's "You Never Even Call Me By My Name" from my barhopping days. The Coppertank used to play the song every night and everyone would just stand around and sing. Good times.
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------



I heart evenodds, not for the first time.

For those of you who don't know it, here's the lowdown. The song starts with a great 3 minute C&W song with the amazing hook "well you don't have to call me darling, darling/you never even call me by my name."

The song then breaks into Coe talking about how proud he was to have written the perfect country and western song, and he called up his friend who told him that it wasn't the perfect country and western song, because it didn't have anything about trucks, or trains, or prisons, or mama, or getting drunk.

"[speaking]So I sat down and wrote another verse to this song, and I'd like to play it for you now. The last verse goes something like this:
[singing]
Well I was drunk, the day my mom got out of prison
So I went to pick her up in the rain
But before I could get to the station in my pickup truck
She got run over by a danged ole train . . ."

I want so badly to bring this back around to our discussion of what to call people who are black....

but I find I just can't make the leap.

It was actually written by the completely underrated Steve Goodman. Here's a link to the lyrics.

Then AG with his little critique of Friends. Pal, this show had plenty of funny moments and one of the all time great sitcom romances. It had great characters in its time. You apparnetly have seen too many reruns so that its gotten stale, or are still watching after the characters have gotten to the end of their arc (and I hvanet seen it in two years so I am not saying they have). But this show was very funny for a lot of people. Just bc someone is too erudite , or fancies himself that way, does not mean that someone should think his special little brain is wired the same way as those of us Friends loving and laughing masses. Maybe Bilmore has room in his kayak for that ibg head of yours?

How do you reconcile this paragraph with all that shit you pop about Scrubs?

I'm guessing you'll deny authorship because a different paigow was posting that day?

Now this explains it. I kept trying to see what in the world it had to do with Passover. I was thinking maybe LFM was mistaking Passover for Purim (when you DO where costumes, for those of you wondering what I'm talking about). The questions [imagine I'm nodding sagely here...]; ahaa. Very nice. Thank you.

I've started watching the new Survivor, which is the first one since the first one of which I've watched any.

This lawyer guy (I think that his name is Andrew) really annoys me. He's everything that is wrong with a lot of lawyers and has all the qualities that make people hate lawyers. Me, included. I always hate it when someone tries to lead something or take something over without any legitimacy or skill. Eveyone in that tribe is spineless loser that they can't even win a single challenge. They've had people kicked off three weeks in a row. I'm sure that, when they join tribes, that tool will be working the other side, too. I think that they will see right through him, too.

I especially love the way he spins everything as an advantage: "We're not comfortable over here right now, so we want it more." Give me a break.

No wonder America has such a poor opnion of lawyers. I don't remember much at all about Brobeck Stacy. Was she a dislikeable person, too?
