Penmanship Counts

So I'm looking at Tony's planner today after school, (he writes down what they do that day, and I sign it), when I see this. Now call me crazy, but I read "swinger sex p.3". In my defense, he's getting the human development course this year, so it's been in the back of my mind. Unfortunately I actually said, "what's swinger sex page 3??" He explained that is says 'swingers exp.3'...'exp' meaning 'experiment'. Apparently they were swinging a pendulum or somethin. I really have to get my mind outta the gutter.

Ha..they're similar! GL to you, too..(except for S who picked my player to get booted!)

Linda said...

Ok, I was wrong..they cut right to the chase! Go on fb if need be..I've got the window open there.

Linda said...

Is it me, or do Tom and Boston Rob sound EXACTLY the same? Seriously. Next time, close your eyes when Tom talks...it's eerie!

RecknHavic said...

Could see that one comin. Good episode, toooo many commercials.

Linda said...

I noticed that, too! Poor Sugar...

"Poor Sugar"

Nest,

Ok, I HAD been seriously leaning toward funky Medina, so i caught her interview on GB's radio show this mornin.
Started off good: strong 2nd amendment stance, eliminate property and other taxes, very tough on the border, etc...

..then the bomb shell.

Let me just say that i didn't see this comin, not ina million yrs...

She's a 911 Truther.

That pretty much kills the deal for me. Guess I'll stick w/ Hitchinson cause I CANNOT vote for Perry.

Linda said...

What did Glenn say??

In Texas, they aren't schools, they're churches (medrasas sp?). Or at least they will be in the near future at the rate this is turning into a theocracy.

Stan Rosenthal said...

Reck -
> She's a 911 Truther.

Whilst certainly some of the so-called "truthers" are false, if you think the government told us the truth about 9/11, you're nuts.

But that doesn't interest me all that much. Tell me she's a Nov. 4 2000 truther and I might vote 4 her.

Stan Rosenthal said...

Linda -
> What did Glenn say??

I thought you only cared about how he looks. :-)

Unknown said...

I saw today's transcript, but not yesterday's.

It's awful. Now all three have serious drawbacks. I've now gone from total Medina supporter to leaning Medina. I don't believe she's a truther, but I think she's trying to play to the Alex Jones crowd that make up a portion of her supporters. She made a calculated answer, and it was a bad one. It shows she is a politician and not "one of the people." With that said, she is for:

1. Border security
2. States rights
3. The sanctity of life
4. The sanctity of marriage
5. Property rights
6. Low taxes
7. Small government

I don't know that Kay is for any of those, maybe #5 and/or 6. Perry is for most of those, but not 5 or 7, and maybe not 1 either.

I think her answer was calculating, and it makes me uncomfortable, but she still has a higher upside than those two fools who have been a "civil servant" for far too long.

RecknHavic said...

Nest,

I know how you feel. Durin the first part of her interview I went from leaning toward Medina to thinkin, "I'm votin for her!"

Then wham!!

Let me just say (and this isnt a reflection on anybody elses decision) but I cannot vote for someone who would even walk the tightrope on this issue. How could anyone actually say, "I haven't seen enough info regarding this (911 Truther accusations) to make up my mind" or "I think that there are still questions that need to be answered"

What questions?

What question could possibly be left unanswered regardin whether or not OUR govt murdered 3000+ of its own citizens?

I'm sorry, but she's a loon.

RecknHavic said...

Stan says, " Whilst certainly some of the so-called "truthers" are false, if you think the government told us the truth about 9/11, you're nuts."

Stan, you're a loon too.

Stan Rosenthal said...

Reck, you believe *EVERYTHING* the government says (as if it's your bible)????

BTW: Rachael Maddow did a little thing (about Medina)on her show tonight, you probably should be able to search it out easily on the MSNBC website.

Stan Rosenthal said...

Nestor -
> ... It's awful. Now all three have serious drawbacks. ...

All 3 are Republican'ts. They've *ALWAYS* had serious drawbacks.

RecknHavic said...

I watched it. pretty funny actually!

So I assume that you also saw what she said about the filibuster. :-)

RecknHavic said...

Yes I did Stan.

btw, where were your complaints when the dimwit congress was refusin to vote on Dubya's Fed Judge appointments? Or when the Tip Oneal senate said every Reagan budget was dead on arrival?

Please *TRY* and stay consistent. And quit the straw man stuff.

No, I don't believe everything our govt says as strongly as i don't belive that our govt conspired w/ Osama Bin Laden to blow up the Towers.

Now, if you wanna talk JFK assassination and a govt coverup of facts, I'm w/ ya.

Linda said...

Happy VD...love you guys!!

RecknHavic said...

yes, happy...VD, to u2

Linda said...

I was just thinking about what it must have been like to discover what is now Yellowstone Nat'l Park. Can you imagine?

RecknHavic said...

They probably thought, "Man, this would make a GREAT national park!".

Stan Rosenthal said...

Reck -
> Yes I did Stan.

Then it should be no problem for you to present us with a time stamp as evidence of that.


> btw, where were your complaints when the dimwit congress was refusin to vote on Dubya's Fed Judge appointments?

From my recollection of the fact/history, they didn't. The Republican'ts threatened them with the "nuclear option" (the possibility that the Republican'ts would change the filibuster rules to eliminate the possibility of the minority filibustering), and the Democan'ts caved and allowed those "up or down" votes.

Stan Rosenthal said...

Linda, PBS has been running programs that document the history of Yellowstone (and the other national parks.) Quite fascinating viewing.

RecknHavic said...

Stan,

Well sure, I'd provide a time stamp if I knew what the hell that was.

Regardless, I did watch the clip and thought it was funny. As far as the "nuclear option" goes; the threat of usin it and actually usin it are two different things. I've always thought that the Executive branch should get all of their judicial appts approved (and have said so many times); unless a prospective appointee has done something criminal (which is why I supported BO's appointment of Sotomeyer).

Yes, *SOME* of Dubya's nominees were finally voted on near the end of his 2nd term.

Nestor said...

Stan,

Research Miguel Estrada. The Dems wouldn't allow his confirmation vote to go through. Why do the Dems hate Hispanics?

RecknHavic said...

I don't think Miguel Estrada will show up on the Huffington Post's search engine Stan, so you may hafta google it.

Stan Rosenthal said...

If ya'll have anything to say, at least present a link to what someone else has said. I'm not falling for your wild goose chase.

Reck, see the little date and time these comments are posted (at the bottom of our comments?). Those are time stamps.

Let me reword this so ya'll "CONs(ervatives)" can understand it -

I'm not falling for your wild google chase.

Carmen said...

Stan,

Miguel Estrada was a Bush appointee for the DC Circuit Court of Appeals.

"Miguel Angel Estrada Castañeda (born September 25, 1961) is an attorney who became embroiled in controversy following his 2001 nomination by President George W. Bush to the United States Court of Appeals for the District of Columbia Circuit. Unable to block Estrada's nomination in the Senate Judiciary Committee after the Republican Party took control of the Senate in 2003, Senate Democrats used a filibuster to prevent his nomination from being given a final confirmation vote on the full Senate floor. Although a filibuster had been used in 1968 to prevent the elevation of Associate Justice Abe Fortas to the position of Chief Justice of the United States, Estrada's filibuster was the first ever to be successfully used against a nominee with support of the majority in the Senate and the first court of appeals nominee."

From that bastion of right-wing thought, Wikipedia.

His Wikipedia page also goes on to explain how his wife miscarried and eventually killed herself through a deadly combination of alcohol and sleeping pills during the nomination battle which dragged on for years because Democrats, specifically Dick "Turban" Durbin, didn't want the first Hispanic Justice on the Supreme Court to be a Republican.

The Democrats have always been on the wrong side when it comes to race issues. (Robert "Exalted Cyclops" Byrd) How they are perceived as the champions of race astonishes me.

Stan Rosenthal said...

Carmen, nice to see you again.

And I do recall Estrada, and if the Dems blocked his nomination, well at least they did something positive.

But my friend, if you review the thread, the Republican'ts here (and I recall you being a friend of Nestors?) claimed that there was more than one Bush nomination blocked by filibuster by the Democrats.

You and me???? Let's you and me see if they can come up with even one more name. :-)

Stan Rosenthal said...

A StanNote education for our CONservative friends:

To whom it may concern:

Wikipedia can be edited by pretty much anyone.

There are 2 kinds of information that you can find on Wikopedia:

a: true information

b: false information

Nestor said...

Stan,

That post was by me. My wife and I use the same computer, and I didn't check to see if she was logged in. If there is a political post on here that says it's from Carmen, you can rest assured that it has been posted by me.

Nestor said...

So Stan, you agree with blocking a court apointee based solely on race as Dick Turban did?

Nestor said...

Bush apointees that never made it:

Miguel Estrada
Harriet Miers (I actually agree with this one)
Carolyn Kuhl
Charles Pickering
William G. Myers III
Terrence William Boyle
William Haynes II
Gene Pratter

There are probably more at lower courts, but a simple 2 minute search brought up these names and more. This did come from a liberal site however, so the veracity of the information is in question.

Stan Rosenthal said...

You never mentioned that before when your pseudo "Carmen" has appeared.

And Nestor, just like alot of folk voted for Obama because he's a smart guy, there's reason to vote against Estrada because he's a right-wing douchbag (that's "politically correct", IMHO.)

Stan Rosenthal said...

Nestor, Harriet Meyers didn't make it because of RIGHT-WING opposition (and undoubtably the same thing could be said (or other things that make sense)) about whatever other Bush appointees that didn't make it.

You're engaging in red-herring (distraction) argumentation as the subject was Bush appointees not making it due to Dem filibusters, not Bush appointees that didn't make it because they're unqualified.

Nestor said...

Stan,

Al Gore lost. (by about 536 votes) It's been 10 years. Get over it.

Nestor said...

BTW, had I voted for Bush in 2000, he would have won by 538.

Thankfully, I've since come to my senses. Sometime between late 2004 and early 2005.

Stan Rosenthal said...

Nestor (being pathetic) -
> Al Gore lost. (by about 536 votes) It's been 10 years. Get over it.

Actually, Al Gore lost 5-4 in the SC. It was a total unConstitutional decision as the Constitution says that the States have the say in how their elections (if they chose to have an election) is handled.

Get over it (that Bush stole the election.)

Nestor said...

Stan *whines*
>Actually, Al Gore lost 5-4 in the SC

There would have been a major catastrophe had there not been a president sworn in by January 19th 2001. Ending the countless recounts allowed Bush, who won Florida, to get his team together. Don't cry about it Stan. A friend of mine who was a Democrat operative confirmed that Bush won Florida. She wasn't happy to admit it. After Bush was in office more recounts were done, and they all showed Bush to be the winner in Florida.

Stan Rosenthal said...

Nestor, you're lying again.

She is Stan. It gets even better, she was big in the Ron Paul campaign for prez in '08. You should really vote for her.

RecknHavic said...

Correct again! Repubs, from time to time, won't rubber stamp nominees from their own party, an idea foreign to the dims.

You just pissed off over 50% of your Republican't base. :-)

PING Linda: Have you ever noticed how when ReckNHavic gets into a little trouble, Nestor appears (and when Nestor gets into a little trouble, Reck appears)?

Stan Rosenthal said...

Nest, Reck and Lind., I have a new post up on my blog. Of course it involves "Bleck" (tm). :-)

Stan,

There is a great example of it at the celeb cheezburger site. I only know how to get there through failblog, but there is a link to celebs there.

It is a picture of J.L. Picard with his head in his had with the quote at the bottom. "FACEPALM: Because describing how dumb that was in words just doesn't work"

That's how we feel about the majority of your comments.

Texas. This would make a GREAT national park! And I have the perfect title 4 it: SouthPark

RecknHavic said...

Whadaya think of the Rocket trade Stan?

Nestor said...

Well, I liked the Knicks portions of their trades last night. T-Mac drops 26 in his first game back. Lost in OT, but Kevin Durant was bananas. If they can keep T-Mac, pick up LeBron and either D-Wade or Bosh, the Knicks will be a force next year.

RecknHavic said...

If the Knicks get Lebron (which I think they will) they'll be a force for a decade.

Regardin T-Mac: nice guy, more unselfish on the court than betrayed, great off the dribble, VERY injury prone and disappears durnin crunch time in playoff gms). Better to spend the money goin after Wade and/or Bosh.

For the Rockets: if Kevin Martin pans out (and stays healthy) prob a decent trade, tho hated losin Carl Landry (bigtime down the stretch player and prob top 3 6th man this yr). Don't know much about the 2 Knicks (Jared Jeffries and Jordan Hill)we picked up. Best scenario is Knicks don't get Lebron and we get to exercise 1st round draft pic swaps in 2011 & 2012 w/ NY. The center we got form Kings apparently has Yao back-up potential (or so they say).

Stan Rosenthal said...

What do I think about the big trade????

It's too early to know. We should know better in a year or two. So-far (after what, only 2 games?), there's bright spots and not so bright spots.

Sure we've lost the last 2, but we had lost like the 3 before that.

So repeating, it's really too soon to be trying to just how well we did in this big trade/

Stan Rosenthal said...

(not "just", I meant to type "judge".)

You do know that you're still (very) welcome to comment over on my blog, don't you?

So Reck, did you notice who won the CPAC straw poll for who the Republican'ts should run for President in the next Presidential election?

RecknHavic said...

Stan, you still have a blog? ;)

Yes, I realize Uncle Ron won the straw poll.

When you get a chance, tell me about Bill White, cause if it's him and Perry in the race for gov, I'm gonna take a real look at him. Thanks.

Stan Rosenthal said...

Bill White is Bill White. His history is well known. You know as much about him as I do.

I guess my preference is Farouk, but it was Bill White I wouldn't complain all that much (except about the unsynced signal lights in Houston.)

Stan Rosenthal said...

PING Reck:

Dude, your main compaint against Perry is the TTC (Trans Texas Corridor), right?

RecknHavic said...

PONG Stan:

I don't like many things about Perry. The fact that he seeks to give road contracts to foreign entities (who by coincidence) donate to his campaign; the vaccine he tried to MANDATE (but was overturned) for ALL 12 yr old girls to prevent a sexually transmitted disease; his "Do you wanna see MY license?" comment to a State trooper when his SUV got stopped for speedin; his panderin...but more than anything, I cannot support a politician (especially a dude) w/ perfect hair.

I spoke w/ my folks (about White) when they were in town yesterday for a convention: they said White's fairly moderate, fast tracked highway construction, did a great job helpin out durin Katrina and is rather borin.

Stan Rosenthal said...

Reck, from my understanding, the vaccine Perry wanted mandatory wasn't for a sexually transmitted disease (if wanting a vaccine for a sexualy transmitted disease is a bad thing.)

Other than that, I don't find any other factual errors in your comment glaring out at me.

RecknHavic said...

Right, it was for a typea cervical cancer that is transmitted (the cause at least) by havin S-E-X. I'm not opposed to an adult women gettn it, or if a parent feels their child should, so be it. Just don't mandate that my daughter has to get one...at age 12.

Ok, why should I consider Shami then (other than the funny little *NAME*)? Because he thinks whitey's lazy, or is there another reason to vote for this bigot?

Stan Rosenthal said...

Reck, I don't think that cancer is caused by sex.

BTW, I do agree that the only reason Perry did it was because he wanted to sell the drug, rather than wanting to do good.

And if you're gonna make charges against Farouk, present evidence.

Nestor said...

Stan, One of the main causes of cervical cancer is the human papilloma virus. This virus is transmitted through sexual activity and is the cause of 80% or more of cervical cancers. This is why it was being mandated. Perry was blasted, rightly so, because he wanted to force 12 year olds to get this. 12 year olds are supposed to think the opposite sex has cooties still. The biggest issue here is that the vaccine was brand new. It was completely unproven in girls that age. Sure it might prevent cervical cancer due to HPV, but what lasting damage would it cause.

That said, I ain't voting for Kay Bailey 'Border Fence Killer' Hutchison. Not in the primary at least.

Linda said...

I still think the opposite sex has cooties.

Stan Rosenthal said...

LOL!!!! Well said, Linda!

Who would've thunk that we've solved the cause of cancer????

If we claimed that the man (because of excessive burning of certain fuels) is at least a cause of the excessive global warming would Nestor believe it???? ;-)

Stan Rosenthal said...

I said this -
>> In Texas, they aren't schools, they're churches (medrasas sp?). Or at least they will be in the near future at the rate this is turning into a theocracy.

and I got not a peep of denial from Reck or Nestor (our two (fake) Christians here.)

So I'm gonna try an experiment to see if we can get a peep out of them by leaving out something and saying it again -

In Texas, they aren't schools, they're churches. Or at least they will be in the near future at the rate this is turning into a theocracy.

Stan Rosenthal said...

Reck -
> Stan, you still have a blog? ;)

Hmm., was it Reck who hacked my blog????????? ;-)

Stan Rosenthal said...

So let's count the votes. Reck won't vote for Perry, and Nestor won't vote for Hutchison. I won't vote for either. Reck might vote for White, I might vote for White or Farouk.

So the WAY I see it in the "Bleck" (tm) blog, the Dems have the advantage in Texas. :-)

Stan Rosenthal said...

Me -

>I don't think so. I think it's simply a case of "stupid *ELEPHANTS*, see 'em holding each other's tails" (Little Jack Melody)

That was taken out of context. Immediately after LJM sang that line, he sings "Everybody knows that there's nothing as sad as *A* clown".

You might be correct, Linda!!!!
