Sinner,
I know that not everyone likes them, but is it possible to add smilies to the blog (or the ability for US to put smilies in our posts)?
Sarcasm and dry humor do not mix well with the written word.
I was still on the last thread. Gotta give out notices when they change
I agree. Look at how I misinterpretted something. It led to a misunderstanding and hurt feelings all around.
Much smooches and love Ott
Wild thing...I think I .....luuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuvvvvvvvvv yooooooooooooooooooooooooouuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuu.
Talk to Blogger...
Dear Blogger:
Bite me. But not just in the usual ways, bite me in the special ways that only you, and maybe a few Thai hookers are aware of...but either way...just bite me.

P.S.
And take your double posting, and lockouts with you
Hawk...what song is that? Is it "Where the streets have no name?"
Religious_Zealot slaps Blogger around a bit with a large trout".
As fun as it is, I have nearly worn out my welcome at the coffee shop.
I guess I will go home to my loving family and no telecom...
I effing hate QWest
Hawk!
Way to go!
Sinner:
See you later! Have fun with the family.
Hose -
YOU get the trout-slapping now.
You have riffed on the Great Diamond.
Oh, that is wrong. Very, very wrong.
But well done, all the same.
Sinner - g'night!
We'll keep the away-from-home fires burning!
Ok, so other than Joe who is crying into his milk, what's everyone watching on TV?
I ask because, I have a confession to make...
wait for it...
I am a reality tv cultural waste. I'm watching Project Runway reruns. Now you know who those idiots are that keep this trash on the tv. It's me.
Muhahahahahahah!
Ah, my true and nefarious plan is beginning to pay off.
Soon, VERY soon "slapping around a bit with a large trout" will become part of the DHD lexicon.
And then I will control everything!!!
Bwah ha ha!!!!
We could all get webcams and turn DHD into a reality show.
But then I'd probably have to wear pants while I'm posting.
(Brenda slaps self on forehead)
Sorry, Hose!
Hawk, you get all the 'credit' here. It really is well done. I'm just a Coming To America fool.
otta -
BE is my absolute favorite of his. I can't find it on my, uhem, favorite places to listen-but-not-download- illegally-no-no-not ever.
Fatwa -
Really? Speak on. I'm in my PJs, there are feeties involved with these.
I think I see the problem behind my last-posts thingy.
Howard Dean said it best.
I question the timing.
I saw Sulla post and I immediately hit the back button (to go back to the main page) to get to the new thread.
Of course, sinner hadn't MADE a new thread.
Which, of course, earns him a vigorous slapping around with a large trout.
Sulla -
What? Oh, gosh, are you starting another thread again?
Sulla, it's not you, it's the imps of the perverse. That also explains why every single plane flight I take, the terminal is the very, absolute last one on the hall.
Imps. Of the perverse.
And snakes.
project runway reruns...
not just you, brenda.
the lovely missus does too.
I'm not putting on a blouse and lipstick for nobody.
Sulla -
It's a conspiracy. I can tell you this, because there is nothing anyone can do.
We control your television set. We control the vertical and the horizontal.
unless they ask REALLY nicely.
and Hose introduces me to whoever knows that Thai technique he taunted blogger with.
But Sulla, you'd look so pretty if you'd just put on a little makeup.
brenda,
whoever controls the horizontal and vertical...
when Heidi appears, she controls the perpendicular.
Sha-winnng!
sulla,
I'm not putting on a blouse and lipstick for nobody.
I missed otta's original post on this, thus your statement (without knowing the prior reference) is quite strange.
I was wonder "who, exactly, is wanting sulla to wear a blouse and lipstick."
And it sounded a lot like Joan Crawford screaming "No wire hangers, ever!!!"
You guys are a riot!
And NO! I do not want to see Sulla in lipstick and a blouse. Now I've got the legs, but I refuse to shave, so no mini-skirts over here either. Just go away with that idea.
Lord, I apologize for that last joke...
git r done!
joe,
panty hose cover a multitude of leg hairs.
just ask Joe Namath.
not the wire hanger, mommy!
NO blouse and lipstick EVER!!!!!!
We could perhaps call the show "The Nutty Ex-Professor".
Or "Band Of Gerbils".
And yes, BrendaK, the jammies with footies will work nicely for you. That'll be part your schtick.
(We could also market a line of "BrendaK BlogWear" for women.)
Sulla:
But I made a promise to my sponsor at Pantyhose Anonymous... never again! I will not fall off that wagon. Are knee-highs okay?
fatwa -
Can we include the black with bits of lace number? 'Cause, sometimes a girl just wants to look pretty.
Fortunately, (harking to the way-back machine), I do not own a red teddy.
The footies are the comfort jammies.
knee highs are just a gateway to peds.
Just my opinion.
Joe -
Kneehigh hose are such a great-gramma kind of thing.
Good thought! We'll want to draw in the older demographic, too.
Not the soft pillows!
otta -
Aw, that's just so cute. I love puppies.
She
Freakin Shelleigh. She sucks.
BrendaK -
When you get your camera back, you'll need to send samples of both for, er, market research.
Why am I suddenly reminded of gym class?
No... lipstick... or blouses.
What are lipstick and blouses doing in this thread when I told you: no lipstick or blouses EVER?
I work and work 'till I'm half-dead, and I hear people saying, "Sulla's killing the thread." And what do I get? Sinner... who cares as much about the traffic I give him... as he cares about me.
What are lipstick and blouses doing in this thread?
Answer me.
I post beautiful comments, and you treat them like they were something Deb would say. You do.
Top flight commentor and fill-in moderator and you want me in lipstick and a blouse.
We'll see how many other users you have hidden somewhere wearing lipstick and blouses.
We'll see... we'll see.
Get off of that computer.
All of this is coming out. Out. Out. Out. Out. Out. Out of the closet.
You've got any more? We're gonna see how many users with lipstick and blouses on that you've got in your closet.
Lipstick and blouses, why? Why?
(with apologies to "Mommie Dearest")
otta,
"we control the horizontal/vertical" - the Outer Limits tv show introduction.
cuz every week you were treated to twilight-zone-esque views of bizarro-world stuff.
I loved it.
Night Gallery, not so much. there was this one where a really creepy obsessive guy gave a girl a mouse pendant, and when she tried to break up with him he pulled the pin on the thing and it wouldn't come off.
and it grew.
and it grew.
and things got messy.
I hate girl-eating mice. Last time I was at Disneyland and Mickey was hitting on my woman, I--
well, I put the stick back in.
though the coroner never found it.
ok. not sure where that came from.
Lord, I apologize for that last joke...
scary thing is, RZ...
I could hear Joan Crawford saying that.
or whoever it was who played her in the movie.
scare ree!
Joe -
Sample pix of you will not be required.
Are we very clear on that?
I was jus updating my blog and have been trying to post pictures to it, yet I couldn't get the damn thing to work. What the hell? any ideas?
Or Kathy Bates.
"You! Mister MAN! Time to say hello to Mister Sledgehammer!"
Sulla -
OMG, that's the one I remember best. The girl was so dismissive of the guy, obviously there for his money.
Creepy, creepy, creepy.
I'm watching "Wallace and Grommit" on the Sundance channel. Why would I do that when I own them? I dunno. Beats the news, and there is shit all else on.
Religous_Zealot slaps hosedragger's blog around a bit with a large salmon.*
* - because sometimes a trout just isn't enough. Sometimes you need the big fish that requires TWO hands and a follow through.
Kewl...Otta's drunkie wunkie...we can take advatage of her now. Hubba hubba
Fatwa -
Anything for the DHD cause (bats eyelashes at the cutie from OH with long hair).
Sorry, getting caught up.
i see brenda. I get slapped around, but Hawk gets told it is the most awesome thing you have ever read and you now want to have his babies. I am just speechless. That's it. I am taking my mitt and ball and going home
Oh...and that's my first base too. If you want me, I'll be in my trailer
(Stomp, stomp, stomp, CRASH, Slam)
Pants? Blouse? What are you Teh Crazee??? I am a proponent of Natural Computing. Down with pants...up with skirts!!!!
Hose,
I didn't say I liked it, but it was well done.
Didn't I tell you that when I thought it was you?
I'm sorry, please come back, you can be the (whatever position is best in baseball).
Verticle shimmy and the horizontal bop.
[KNOCK! KNOCK! KNOCK!]
"Ah, Mr. Dragger, you're really needed on the set right away."
And BrendaK, I admire your dedication to our cause.
hose,
You forget.
Your trailer IS first base!!
You want the blouse and lipstick?
You can't HANDLE the blouse and lipstick!!!
(oops, getting silly)
RZ -
Silly, yes.
Nonetheless, it made me *blork* coffee through my nose.
Fatwa:
What was that? I was getting the camera and ... aww... but I was going to look real neat!
Hello??
Anyone there??
Is this thing on?
See, here I'm now by myself, uh, er, talking to myself.
That's, that's chaos theory.
Nope...just wont load the images
Curious...BrendaK makes reference to the "black bits of lace number" and everyone disappears.
Nope...I am hre. Sitting around in all my butt-nekkidness
Joe -
You'll go with the blouse and lipstick but not the l'eggs?
That's just...and you don't even shave to go biking!
Huh.
Fatwa -
Doesn't say much for my charms, does it?
Sigh.
Joe -
"Don't call us; we'll call you".
Like a Viking
fatwa,
...and everyone disappears
But only for a few ...
minutes.
Friday and Saturday television viewing is the absolute worse. I wish I watched sports. At least then I would have something to watch.
Being laid up SUX!!!!
I need to get one of those avatars like blizzardlane's.
Are you kiding? The mere thought of Brenda swathed all in silk and lace made me speechless and I had to excuse myself for a minute.
I wondered where sulla went to.
He must have broken down and gotten the lipstick and blouse (and a large trout).
OK. I need to stop posting.
THIS is one of the reasons I don't tell people my occupation.
I tend to get silly (especially at night).
BrendaK -
Au contraire.
Y'know those rope climbing / jungle gym references that keep being made?
You know...
hose -
King of the Lost World is on the SciFi channel - do you have dishnet?
Biiiiig scorpions, dragons, who could ask for more?
Naw...cable only, and I am a West Coaster.
WEST SIIIIEEEED
Ooo...Zoolander is on
Brenda:
No, no, no. I said no to the lipstick, the blouse, and miniskirts for me. Well, I said no to Sulla doing that stuff.
Sulla, don't do that stuff!
Now, this l'eggs question was a whole 'nother deal. But Fatwa says no to the test shots, so, let's just say the casting director wanted to go a different way.
wicked minds think alike, I see.
Man, I hate working weekends.
Between Pix and Brenda...I have nothing but awesome dreams to last me for MONTHS
RZ -
Silly is our game, DHD is our name.
Aaaaall are welcooooome. Come into the light!
Oh, hey, re your earlier comment, when engaging in sarcasm that you want to point out, just type /sarc at the end of your comment.
Certainly I have to sometimes. It must be my rarified nature. Yeah, that's it. That's the ticket.
Zoolander?
WALK OFF!
hose,
Which, hopefully, makes up for that image of naked pictures of Deb (and Helen Thomas(?) that you were talking about last night.
Ewwwwwwwwwwww.
Hose:
West Si-ide!
I'm zipping back and forth between UCLA vs. Utah and USC vs. Arkansas.
Again [ahem] West Si-ide! Although I hate USC, they're still winning.
RZ,
Helen Thomas.
Naked.
You make Cthulhu scared.
Hose -
Pulease. You have the freckled muse -- you can't fool us.
East Siiide!
Sulla:
Which do prefer: Magnum, Le Tigre, or Blue Steel?
West Side LBC in teh hizzle!
Tommy Run boyee!
Hey, again otta.
Sulla -
We're really not having that much fun.
Honest.
And that comment about Helen Thomas was quite unnecessary.
Otta -
Heeeyyyy!
Yo...EAS' SIIIIDE!
Le Tigre every time.
Excuse me. My cell phone's ringing, but it got lodged in my fingernail.
Ummm...I was referring to the only person here who claimed to have freckles lady
Cthulhu TREMBLES at the feet of the mighty Nyarlathotep!!
Geez, I hope I'M not the only one taking crazy pills!
Hose's muse: freckled
Brenda: freckled
what color was your muse's hair, Dragger?
fatwa,
I wasn't the originator of said comment about Helen Thomas.
I'm pretty sure that was hose from yesterday's encounter with Deb.
Joe -
Oh, oh, wait. I have to hold up my side.
Ahem -
USC sucks. Can you believe those uniforms? Could those be more clashing? And what's with that really big guy on the end? Hey, batter, batter, batter, sa-wiiing.
Oh, freckled. Well. (blush).
I had no idea. I thought you had an inhouse muse. With freckles.
Well...moving right along. How's the weather around there? Monsoon season is winding down around here.
Brenda:
Don't forget to make fun of their knee-highs!
Red
Thigh-highs or nothing
[Affects stage whisper]
Pssst! Hey, guys!
Whatta ya wanna bet that email Ottava just sent BrendaK has something to do with us being slightly obnoxious right now?
Otta -
You are my new best friend and favorite blogbuddy - check your beeeeeee mail, too, though.
Joe -
Oh, yes.
And look at those kneehi's - did their gramma's dress them? And are those PADS on their BUTTS? What, they land there so often then need pads? And the toes on their tennis shoes turn up. Which is kind of, you know.
Fatwa:
[louder stage whisper]
What is this, junior high? Oh, right, it's the intertubes. I believe they are trading lovenotes about Neil Diamond (though why, I know not).
otta -
Yes, the masses are cruel to the lovers of Neil Diamond. But secretly, those same masses, are rocking out to Forever in Blue Jeans, I'm just sure of it.
Come out of the closet, secret Neil Diamond lovers everywhere!
If anyone's interested, I'm presently enjoying the hell out of an internet radio station which plays only stuff featuring Hammond B3 organ:
Leslie Overdrive
They probably won't be playing "Cracklin' Rosie", 'tho. (I figured out the Neil Diamond thing right after I hit "publish" on my previous. D'oh!)
They are passing notes about us hunkie man types
Joe -
That's so wrong. Did I turn on you and root for USC? I did not.
Didn't I say you'd look nice with a blouse and lipstick? Didn't I give you cookies and milk?
No appreciation. Where's the looooove?!
West Si-ide! UCLA is WAC, or beats WAC. Wait, isn't Utah in the Mountain something or other? I can't keep track of those little schools.
They are passing notes about us hunkie man types
Hey...that's offensive to those of us of Hungarian descent!
/sarc - "Hunky" being an ethnic slur.
Oh my...
I need to make amends to some Neil Diamond lovers here.
Best parody of Neil Diamond: Will Farrel on SNL spoofing an episode of Story Tellers.
"Oh my GOD! I was so HIGH!"
Ottava -
Was it that necessary to use the words "Neil Diamond" and "organ" in the same sentence?
Joe -
You're not earning any brownie points here, I'm just saying.
Don't make me get out my pike pole and axe
Better Neil Diamond than Neil Young.
"A southern man don't need him around, anyway."
(Even though I'm not a southern man)
We need a new thread
Taking too long to scroll down
fatwa -
One of my favorite profs was Hungarian. He had a super thick accent, you could always tell which students who were really listening because all three of us would laugh when he told a joke.
He was with the resistence after WWII. He would tell about the machinations they would go through trying to convince the American gov't. that they had a much bigger force than they really did. An eyeopener on Real Politik for me.
Brenda:
Whu-u-u-uh? How about best Neil Diamond tribute movie?
Saving Silverman
I can't stand the movie except for the last ten minutes when the man himself shows up.
Fatwa -
I'm half-way to nowhere...
That is good.
Family time...watching "RV and need to suggle with the little ones. Back Later
It's interesting to note that less than a month ago the average amount of comments per thread was between 5 and 10.
And only when Deb did something outrageous did it increase.
Now even open threads regulary get to 100 posts (even without Deb participating).
As Carlito would say - that's cool!
Well, for us East Coaster's (East Siii-iiide) (Or was that East Seeeeiiid?), it's bed time.
See you all later.
Bye, RZ.
RZ:
No kidding! We had one thread that was over 600 posts and it was mainly just seeing how much we could make the other people laugh.
RZ -
I'm right behind you.
Otta -
Check your email, just because it would beeeeee lovely.
Fatwa -
I did say ALL music except rap. Truit in advertising.
See y'all later!
'Night RZ!
'Night Brenda!
Hey, Joe -
I hope your bro's having a pleasant time right about now. (He had a date tonight, yeah?)
Nighty-night, BrendaK!
Fatwa:
I hope so, too. The longer he stays out, the better.
I just had dinner; the medium black dog is in disgrace; the Male of the Species is out washing the car to work of some of his mad; the corgi is hiding in the corner.
And everyone else is going to bed? When I need comfort and distraction?
Help!
Fatwa:
How's the weather in the midwest right now? No rain or tornados?
Joe -
Roger that.
Fatwa:
Good. The bro might have some perambulatin' and hand-holding going on in the Windy City.
Dianna -
You showed up just as a few folks left; good evening to ya!
Joe -
It was dreary for most of the day; overcast/light rain. Supposed to be more of same tomorrow.
Has it cooled off out there at all?
Fatwa:
No. We thought we might get a break from Hurricane John, but no heat relief yet. Still, much better than most of July.
Good evening, Fatwa! May it be a merry one for you.
The Male of the Species and I retired to the back yard for a cigar, and the medium black mutt decided that this was the ideal opportunity to climb up and have at the plates.
The Male of the Species, who has rather a severe idea of how dogs ought to behave, has taken this badly.
So the mutt's in her bed; the corgi thinks all this bad karma could fall on him at any moment, and I'm not getting the male attention I want. So I shall pout.
Joe -
I'm hoping the rainy season starts early out there as it could mean a trip to L.A. with very handsome remuneration for a couple of months work.
A friend I used to work for freelance may have a couple of large construction projects which he'd fly me in to manage. And with the dodgy economy here, that would be excellent.
Plus, I could spend time with some friends I really miss in SoCal.
Fatwa:
I hope it gets cooler too, but September usually isn't kind to LA. We're expecting triple digits for most of next week.
Dianna...don't pout. Maybe we can all help you out re the male of the species.
Of course, knowing DHD, this could all wind up like a sitcom.
Or end very badly.
"Ya pays yer money, ya takes yer chances"
Considering that the unread books are in a lost box, I'll take that chance, Fatwa.
Dianna:
It's okay. I'll raise a glass (or two) of merlot to your kind company.
Joe -
So I heard; I remember those lovely days of 106° in the SFV during September.
Dianna -
Cheers!
[Takes big swig of Vernor's]
Joe, you and Fatwa count as excellent company in my book.
We had a bottle of Hawk's Crest 2003 Cab with dinner; for some reason, it seemed just a little off.
I'm eyeing the bottle of port speculatively.
Dianna:
Any port or cognac after dinner really hits the spot. Sometimes a Spanish madiera adds a little spice.
Helen Thomas.
NAKED.
shudder...
an infinite number of dark realms, and I had to land in one that gives ME nightmares.
Otta:
Good news for the dog, huh? Only a spot of arthritis?
A miracle! The Male is taking me for ice cream!
I'm saved!
Take good care.
cthulhu:
Were you able to discover, through your dark arts, whether Helen Thomas spawned the wart on her nose, or 'twas the other way around?
Bye Dianna!
I thought Dagon was responsible.
Not even he would hit that.
[Grinds toe sheepishly into hardwood floor]
Aww, shucks, Dianna.
I'm also partial to merlots and (reds in general).
Ottava -
Aww, shucks re the wee beastie, too; I'm pretty much an idiot for dogs.
I sincerely appreciate your good wishes, too.
New thread, if you want it.
sorry - I was in a meeting.
"Virtual August" keeps stretching further into September.
cthulhu:
Evil, not crazy, right?
Bye, Dianna!
joeschmoe
thanks for the helen thomas nose wart comment. fell out of the chair laffing
Joe,
you speak truly.
Even Dagon has his standards.
A world of half-Helens...
AI! AI! HELEN CTHOMHAS FHTAGN!
Harrumph.
omnipotent slime-god, and I'm playing straight-beast to a Muppet.
Would that I could feast upon your inedible felt-lined soul.
cthulhu:
I humbly beg your indulgence. Plus, new thread [bump]
tesla:
You're very welcome!
