QUOTE (JPN366 @ Jul 10, 2009 -> 07:33 AM) We don't have a lottery in Alabama because it's immoral. I'm fairly certain the tooth brush was invented there. anywhere else and it would have been a teeth brush

QUOTE (BigSqwert @ Jul 10, 2009 -> 10:06 AM) Care to enlighten us with a few examples of her intelligence? If she can breath and feed herself she is more intelligent than the media portrayal.

There are very few politicians whose actual, versus media portrayed, intelligence are skewed more than Palin and Quayle.

Biters? Is there anything better than suddenly finding a longish nail that somehow was overlooked?

QUOTE (FlaSoxxJim @ Jul 10, 2009 -> 09:24 AM) Really, until the earwax thread shows up, I got nothing. I'm in on that one. One time I was on vacation in the great north woods of Wisconsin and developed a nasty earache. I had been trying all sorts of home and OTC remedies for a waxy buildup in my ears. Finally I visited the Doctor and they set up a water pic and hydrogen peroxide. I'm thinking, wtf!? a water pic!? Sure enough, instant relief.

Everyone shortens it anyway. The homophone I was trying for Texas > Texsax > Texsox just wasn't working to my ear either.

I think some of you have Dan Quayle and Dana Carvey mixed up.

QUOTE (SHIPPS @ Jul 10, 2009 -> 08:45 AM) Unless it was Mel Torme.......ew. Double ew, who did you really mean?

QUOTE (FlaSoxxJim @ Jul 10, 2009 -> 07:14 AM) A fingernail thread!??! Can the nose hair thread be too far behind? I Kid Because I Care® You and BidEd can just PM each other to discuss that. I Too Kid Because I Care® QUOTE (SHIPPS @ Jul 10, 2009 -> 07:48 AM) I bite my nails. ^^^^

Wait, a 38 year-old stripper?

QUOTE (Nixon @ Jul 10, 2009 -> 08:26 AM) Should that be green? no

QUOTE (Rex Kicka** @ Jul 9, 2009 -> 11:50 PM) The day after the old cycle ends. So $100,000 for a Senate race seems like a blink of an eye.

QUOTE (rangercal @ Jul 10, 2009 -> 02:52 AM) 5th starter= Colon until he loses it. IMO, his ERA would have to be over 4.50 to lose it. I would be fine with it. Poreda is pretty nice coming out the Pen, for now. What ever happens, it is nice to know that we don't have to plug in the 5th spot with Arnie Munoz or Felix Diaz. That year was f***ing brutal.

QUOTE (SHIPPS @ Jul 9, 2009 -> 12:27 PM) I feel kinda lame for not knowing what The Kindle is. That is just one reason why you should feel lame . . .

QUOTE (knightni @ Jul 9, 2009 -> 09:45 PM) You guys should get on swaptree. You can trade for books that you want there. I hold on to way too many books.

QUOTE (Balta1701 @ Jul 9, 2009 -> 09:47 PM) Wow. hits a nerve? Soft spot? The GOP attack on the "liberal" "biased" media is far more organized and ingrained in the GOP faithful. An entire generation has grown up with the indoctrination since Quayle's time. The GOP had issues with the media in 1990, but there was some balance with the "vast right wing conspiracy". Scream media bias in 1990 and people said "what's that?". Scream media bias in 2009 and GOP become rabid dogs. I find her as intelligent, if not more so, than most other politicians. I thought Quayle was very smart. His written stuff is far, far, better than his off the cuff ad libs.

QUOTE (kapkomet @ Jul 9, 2009 -> 09:36 PM) I need to. I'd have a better chance of winning the damn lottery then finding a job right now. That may be the toughest part of a job search like this. Interviews become a chore and trying to be positive in the interview is so damn hard.

QUOTE (lostfan @ Jul 9, 2009 -> 09:03 PM) f***ing hell Tex I almost just baptized my keyboard Were going to baptize it in the name of God and Palin? Cuz that would have been cool! Sadly, she may go the way of Dan Quayle. Intelligent, witty, but the media is just killing her. However, now, unlike Quayle's time, being crucified by the media touches on a trigger for the GOP.

QUOTE (mr_genius @ Jul 9, 2009 -> 08:52 PM) oh man, you're missing some AMAZING posts. this probably being one of them. The only problem is I worry I'm going to basically repeat something that someone I have on ignore just said. That would be embarrassing.

QUOTE (Rex Kicka** @ Jul 9, 2009 -> 06:10 PM) What about if he pursues the affair beginning when he invites the married couple to stay with his family while the mistress and her husband have their home repaired from a burglary and all six kids from the two families are in the house at the time? Pushes the envelope, but other than voting him out of office, I just don't have any energy.

QUOTE (mr_genius @ Jul 9, 2009 -> 08:52 PM) oh man, you're missing some AMAZING posts. this probably being one of them. sometimes you come up with something out of the blue and I just laugh.

QUOTE (southsider2k5 @ Jul 9, 2009 -> 05:47 PM) How do you get over $100,000 in campaign debt, while never having run for the office? At what point can they start for the next cycle? Exploring reelection chances seems like a campaign debt.

QUOTE (kapkomet @ Jul 9, 2009 -> 06:50 PM) First off, 50% of the posts have nothing to do with Sarah Palin (welcome to the filibuster) I guess I have too many people in ignore

I was just going to start a thread and thought, maybe Balta already did . . . Congrats on ending his political career as a Senator, albeit a tainted one.
