I got home late from volunteering at our local gilber and sullivan society..(pirates of penzance) anyhow.. the news is finally mentioning that the people in the Midwest are frustrated with the feds.. no kidding. Are we talking, not voting republican frustrated? that would be a great 'up yours' to that blowhard Limbaugh..

Ah, the late great Billy Preston! One of only a dozen or so people who has been referred to as the "Fifth Beatle". Then again, he was the only one to get a credit on a single!

When I see the word 'levee' I think of American Pie.

You guys are having some real extreme weather over there. Meanwhile in Iraq, Big Oil is winning no-bid contracts so those SUVs will keep on arunnin' I guess, and so will global warming.

Even see One Flew Over The Cuckoo's Nest? Surely there are more sane people in asylums that there are without.

Keep smilin' you hear!

Ever since I installed the latest version Firefox 3.0 I have trouble loading your comments section.

Firefox 3.0 doesn't like Blogger or it's the other way around.

It took 2 minutes for this comment box to open.

Meanwhile, the DINO Democrats caved to George Bush again. This time on FISA. Courage is in short supply when it comes to Congressional Democrats.

Personally, I would’ve appreciated some leadership from Barack Obama on FISA. After all, he is the leader of the Democratic party now and I don’t give a rat’s ass that he’s busy running for president. He’s still a United States senator and millions of his supporters are looking to him for leadership.

Let’s hope Obama steps up and quickly and puts an end to this shameful behavior by the DINOS.

Don’t let us down, Barack. I ain’t playing when it comes to civil liberties.

Bruce Willis?

Hey wasn't his character's name in those "Die Hard" movies named John McClane? That is dangerously close to endorsing the GOP candidate.

Beware of subliminal music videos.

I am sorry I had big helping of frosted paranoia flakes for breakfast today.

Frosted Paranoia Flakes? Are they without calories?

CSpan2 just flipped to live coverage of McClellan testimony. Wexler is grilling him now. MSNBC keeps breaking in with little bits & pieces.

E, I will watch Bruce Willis blow later.

Levees are still being breached and some are now breathing relief but there is more rain coming. Things are pretty bad when you have to hope another town is breached so your may be safe as is happening!

Daniel:::

Robert:::
Sometimes you just need some Billy Preston....I also found some Youtube of him singing as a kid with Ray Charles- really amazing...I did not know he was called the 5th Beatle....interesting...

Ingrid:::
Pirates of Penzance...wonderful...yeah, people there are fed up and also have some legitmate gripes as they were mislead by FEMA...I know, you would have thought....Are they fed up with Bush ? and the Repugs...well, I did not really see any great Photo ops of Bush with the Common Folk.....let's hope that people show up to vote Obama and end this frigging regime...

enigma4ever said...

Yeah I know! As you know I get very upset at the chief worm showing up for a photo op then doing nothing. I am happy to see the people come together as they are in filling the sand bags. It is up to us!

D.K. Raed said...

The whole Scotty testimony today will be reshown tonight on REGULAR OLD C-SPAN @ 8PM EDT. I need to DVR since I missed the first half. The so-called news networks only showed bits & pieces.

enigma4ever said...

DK:::
I did get to see Wexler bring up Impeachment- and tear scotty apart...yahoooo..that was a thing of beauty......( I seriously love Wexler...want to get his book..he has fire in him...he would make a kick ass VP...)

Gryphen said...

NEVER seen a Bruce Willis movie?

How is that even possible?

Look I will admit that Bruce has made some clunkers (who hasn't?), but he has also made some very significant trend setting movies.

The "Sixth Sense" is a great movie (Don't let anybody ruin the end for you), and "Die Hard" is the shiznit! I have to watch Die Hard at least once a month to keep my testosterone and a reasonable level.

My advice for you is to rent those two movies immediately! have I mentioned how much I love movies?

Gryphen:::
oh dear...
I see I have sinned....
okay in MY defense...
(1) 6-6 is in charge of the Netflix list...which means anything I want to see is on the bottem...

(2) I read alot... I never go to movies...or very rarely- sorry but Movies are really really expensive...I end up watching movies on tv , monthes or years later...BUT seriously how often do you see his movies on late night tv??? ( I actually would like to see diehard...or 6th sense...)

(3) One of my favorite shows of ALL times- is Moonlighting...seriously....
and it was because of Bruce...

(4) I really like him- think he is very very funny....love seeing him on Dave....and I think he is very hot - Bald...( I have a thing about bald heads...like Yul Brynner- so hot...well, even though he is dead...)

Okay I will sklunk away in shame....so sorry..

( and I love his band and his blues....does that count???)

Gryphen said...

You cannot sin Enigma, you are too open and honest.

I was just razzing you since I have to see almost every film that comes out.

But seriously you tell 6-6 to get Die Hard on the queue so that you two can get your adrenaline pumping and your eyes a bulging.

enigma4ever said...

Gryphen::::
ahhh you are too funny....I sin every day....
( and I have the language of a sailor...)

I would love to see more movies...I really would....

( and I already did tell 6-6 about Die Hard- he laughed at me..."you never ask for THOSE kind of movies.." - he's right- I am always asking for Battlestar or the Lord of the Rings....or old Hitchcock....)
