Its Freaky Friday Again! Any rants or raves?
 

Rush on Oxycontin?
No more telemarketers?
The Govenator?
Here's mine. I saw a story on CNN reporting that 11 of the top officials who represent the telemarketing industry and the legal fight to end the Do Not Call list have been found to be on the official Do Not Call list!!!

Yes, and some of them denied knowing about it and said it was a prank. But, since getting on the list required a response by e-mail or phone, there is more to the story....

Why does that not suprise me?!!

Personally, I'm enjoying the Rush Limbaugh saga. After finding out he was on drugs, it makes more sense out of his political ravings. (All right, all right, I shouldn't have said that, I don't want to start a heated political discussion...sorry)

Here's mine.

When the rest of the stadium is jammed, half the "premium" seats at last night's World Cup quarter-finals in Portland are empty. Worse yet, the stadium hires monitors to make sure the seats stay that way.

Just a bit ago I caught part of Rush's discussion on the ESPN comments. He blames - drum roll please...The liberal sports press for the hoopla over his comments. :-S

Re: Rush and his drug source-
Why do these people have household help that get drugs for them when mine won't even iron for me ??

LOL Scarlett... Probably because OxyContin is what..$40 a pill? and shirts get ironed for about 50 cents a pop.

Scarlett, you crack me up!!
Austin, I NEVER would have saw that coming ;-)

Speaking of drugs, Courtney Love is the last person I would've expected to get busted on a B and E and then proceeds to OD. She seems like such a nice, level-headed girl.

... and mine: today has been the official smiles day - have you smiled at anyone? Am I the only person who heard NPR announce this morning? Was I possibly having a coffee reaction and misunderstood?

... and finally, Rush. I want to see him on the next Survivor, perhaps a diversity version. He's slimmed down now, which makes his red no-neck more obvious than ever. ESPN! And he was considered for Monday Night Football.

I shouldn't get political, either, but...the next governor of California is an admirer of Hitler....and today is national smile day????

... and his polls actually improved in California.

My gripe?? Liberals who are innocent until proven guilty and Conservatives who are guilty until they prove themselves innocent.

O, Dawn, dont be such a rightwinger.

Yep...obviously shoudl've kept politics out of it. A great example of a good thread going bad.

My Gripe!

What the He-- happened to Summer! It was late to arrive, and beat a fast retreat!
Old man winter had the temp down to 36 Degrees last night in my part of New Jersey!
Yikes! Get me some of that 'free' Iraqi home heating oil...pronto!

Helen's *ss, welcome back...oops too late, gone again. :lol

emoticons = reminds me of people who, in high school, dotted every "i" with a daisy, or a peace symbol. (I'm not dating myself, am I? . . . good.)
colored writing (okay, I like that, but I'm just jealous 'cause I don't know how to do it.)

Annoyed at my boyfriend's health club for discrimination. The club is hosting a party tonight at one of the new clubs in the Old Town (Wichita) and all members are invited for free (free food and beer from 7-9pm). Flyer said that members can bring a guest for free, but each non-member must bring a flyer (no biggie, I can copy it on the copier at my office) and bring a business card from the health club. So, my boyfriend goes to the health club and asks for a business card for me, and he's told that I can't come to the party - it's for singles (stag) only to mingle at. Okay, so we're a couple, but, technically we're still single (as in not married yet). So, we're not going (my boyfriend's decision), and now I have to make dinner tonight (I didn't plan anything).

Packed NYC subway cars and metro north trains for the Friday exit to the burbs.

My peak hour metro north trains are always two cars short (and many times also having a car whose air condition/heat doesn't work), causing many people to stand all the way to their stations.

And for this we are paying 15% more???

I Love NY.

Rant - I agree with bmw - summer went too fast hear in the Midwest also, and I wish we had more days with temps in the 60's.

Rave - We might get warmer days yet here. AND - we had a freeze last night which killed those annoying undersized bees that hover around picnics like flies.
