G'mornin', boss!
The gerbils in the wheel say, "Don't hire Deb, Don't hire Deb, Don't hire Deb..."
Um, could you have Maintenance look at the wheel? It's not very squeaky this morning.
[Scampers off to the coffee bottle attached to the side of the cage]
That's a good one, I was thinking maybe "Squeak, Squeak, Squeak"
DOH!
Forgot to change into something more comfortable...
Good morning, East Siiide!
Having searched for a new Good Morning song and pretty much come up empty, here's a bit coming to you not-live from WHAM!
Sometimes
You wake up in the morning with the bass line
A ray of sunshine
Sometimes
You know today you're gonna have a good time
And you're ready to go
I should be commenting out the wazoo today since I'm at the client's office with pretty much nothing at all to do.
Yankee -
It's all yours; I've had quite enough to...uh oh.
[Scurries frantically to darkest corner of cage]
Yo, BrendaK...East Siiiiiide in tha hizzle!
The Turd Warrior seems to have put all the postings back up on her site.
Maybe she realized that deleting everything off the main page didn't really make it inaccessible.
Such a day! I love, love, love the fall.
Fatwa - is it already getting cold there in O-hi-o? And by cold I mean, of course, anything below 68° -- because after lo these many years I have become a weather weenie.
staci -
The second half of that show was almost unbearable. I had family over and we cried through the last 20 minutes.
It made me so sad for all that was lost and so appreciative of this lovely new day we have to live.
Special note to Kate and Stephanie - If you're reading, please do join in. It would be so lovely to have a whole L'ville/Snellville contingent to dazzle all with!
*Passing notes in class*:
Psst, Sinner, I sent you an e-mail ;)
Good gerbil wheel music. I love this song
Have a great day, everyone!
Good morning, Victoria!
I should be commenting out the wazoo...
BrendaK - might be better if you use your keyboard.

It's rainy here this morning and headed for 70°. Usually doesn't start getting autumn-y temperature-wise until early-to-mid October (when the leaves really start changing).
Infidel753 - I noticed that too when I snuck over there earlier. Only 13 more days until the hearing...
Staci - I didn't watch any of the TV programs about 9/11; I figured the "dramatic license" would just tick me off.
Personally, I find the actual footage (especially some of the amateur stuff) more visceral and meaningful in terms of bearing witness.
Hiya, Hawk!
In retrospect we could have done a lot more to prevent the attacks. But considering all the red tape and lack of the interagency cooperation, we didn't.
Even if we knew who the attackers were going to be, our political correctness would not permit to arrest them. That would be "racial profiling" (god forbid).
We can go on and on about all the 'coulda-woulda-shouldas', because of course hindsight is 20/20.
Consider the following: even today, after removing Saddam from power and preventing god knows how many more attacks, the government still gets blamed.
Damned if you do, and damned if you don't.
The only new thing I noticed was in the comments, a couple at the bottom on Finger Trail.
Yes, Staci, if the public only knew....
I don't work at the airport anymore, but yesterday I'm sure y'all saw that a plane was diverted to DFW due to unclaimed Blackberry.
They are testing, testing, testing our responses to seemingly "trivial" incidents.
Now back to teh crazzee!
Hawk -
I'm working on a little "official" project and was wondering of there's a pop tune which I might know (or could dig-up) that you associate with flying.
No rush, as I'm not going to be able to start work on it for a couple o' days. You can either post it here or shoot me an email (if you don't mind).

p.s. - Hey, Rabbit, Ducky & Victoria!
of = if
[Resser-fresser...]
Fatwa
What kind of flying?
Plane?
Bird?
Substance Abuse?
Swinging on a swing?
Rabbit -
In Hawk's case, that would be a chopper. I'd like to get a tune that's personally meaningful to him.
I shall say no more, as that would spoil the fun.
Good morning folks,
Deb is frothing over on AW-enough so that I should resub. She just posted one ebtitled Being Jodie Foster where I guess-its kind of hard to tell-she takes DHD to task.
She lays out her version of the PW affair, dumps personal info on sinner, dont know if its accurate or not, uses her superior intellect to identify hosedragger as Matthew Heidt, and then pegs an AW poster as a porn addict.
More flying music
pilot song
flying video and song
Hawk -
If there's a tune that tends to go through your mind while you're herding one of those beasties through the skies, that's the one I want.
(If you'd like to know why, send me an email and I'll explain my reason for asking; don't want to spill the beans to the rest of the gerbils before it's done. Nor do I wish to intrude on your "comfort zone". It's all in pursuit of more silly VBS fun.)
Im not sure of the purpose of her post, end result seems to be another threat aimed at someone called John Henry-running to her lawyer for another restraining order-I dont get it. Im confused. Why post this stuff on AW-to what end? If only I had graduated college......
You can subscribe to Abbeyweb, there's a link here:

A current subscriber sends me this stuff.
Folks -
I truly appreciate all of your music suggestions, but I have a particular reason for asking Hawk to suggest something specific.
(Iffen he doesn't mind, of course.)
Fatwa -
Maybe comment out the kazoo? No, my fellow cube-dwellers might complain. Alright, out the keyboard it is.
*You are entirely too quick for me!
Kentucky Joe,
John Henry is a VBSer who challenged Deb on numerous occasions, like Hosedragger does. He did alot of digging into her realife. He mailed his phone number & real address & asked her to call. She never did. She hates him most of all of us.
The best way to catch up on teh threats, crayzee Deb stuff is to go through the archives here at DHD.
Deb made a threat to a blogger named Froggy at the Blackfive website. There are 2 Matthews there. She got it in her head that Froggy is Matthew H.
And we know how she gets,
when she gets an idea...
rabbit -
Can you imagine the frothing at the mouth when she discovers that John Henry did nothing illegal and she has no case?
**************
Oh, the unfairness of it all! [/sarcasm]
BK,
That would be frothing "with LOTS and LOTS of saliva".
Apparently quite an output from her smartness on AW this morning but I have to go. Plus Im getting scared reading her stuff, she's just so, I dont know, brilliant! With her looks, her compassion and understanding, and her smarts-not to mention her modesty-she might just be perfect.
I am in AWE.
Later folks.
Ottava -
'Mornin. And thanks for the encouragement. But I will reveal nothing more until it's posted. (It's sooper seekrit!)
BrendaK -
You are entirely too quick for me!
Umm...
[Affects whiny stage whisper]
Shhhh, Brendaaaaaaa...not in front of teh gang.
Rabbit -
Heh. (and "Eeeeeeu!")
Joe, she's been doing that lately, taking her posts on & off. She wants to put up something new, but is afraid. So she juts rearranges stuff. She also adds a new comment or two to the Finger post.
Well, I've posted some of teh
cray zee which teh deb™
posted to the Abbeyweb files
this a.m. (...along with my
own editorial play-by-play,
natch ;))
Enjoy! :)

"And we know how she gets,

It spoils and then dies of loneliness?
It revs up past the redline and then she drives it straight into a concrete wall?
It rattles around inside her coconut like a rock in a hubcap?
The possibilities plumb boggle the mind...

if i got slapped that often, i'd probably shut up and go away.
Yes, Ottava, but you're not the [scary music sting] Word Warrior.

Pozhalsta (Kentucky-ized Russian)
You anywhere near Henderson?
The reason I ask is that a good friend (and radio production mentor) who was a Russian translator for the Air Force lives 'round those parts.
I was thinking you two could have some fun messin' with the folks.
Tim & Bilge -
Good day, lads.
Hi fatwa (waving) :)
Ducky,
The Creative Commons link has been on her site for quite a while. It gives us the right to distribute her work with attribution. We can also alter her work, as long as the altered work is published with the same license as the original work.
BTW, she took one of my posts to Blizzard on DHD and copied it to the comments section on the Finger Trail post, posting it under my name. Yep, there's that academic integrity again. I wonder if that's how she "wrote" her dissertation (drawing heavily on the works of Ibid, Op Cit, and Et Al)?
fatwa:
Hola, compadre.
I spend my lunch hour surfing the web and watching Navy lifers scratch their bottoms on the destroyers and frigates on the next pier over.
It's a full life...
Regards;
Is Sinner around?
I'm half-thinking that her
latest post to the abbeyweb
might be cause for raising
the alert level to "hammered."
Specifically, it contains
specific threats against
specific individuals. For
instance, teh deb™
threatens with taking out
a TRO against John H. Teh
deb™ also attacks Matt,
Sinner, etc., in teh post.
(Hammered level = specifically
targeted poo-flings, right?)
they don't like our little debbie snack cake much.
if i got slapped that often, i'd probably shut up and go away.
Ah, but she's a TRUE AbbeyWebber, and they're not, so obviously it's THEY who must go, if they won't uphold the spirit of Abbeyosity...
HEY DR.DEB-BILE,
I know you are lurking and reading (albeit v-e-r-y slo-o-ow-ly).
You have less than two weeks before you see the judge again.
All I want to know is if you have made arrangements for your dog?
Since you won't answer my question at south(pawthetic)west, be so kind as to answer it here or at the DEAR ABBeYweb.
KJ,
you can be a gerbil anytime you want to be.
I prefer to be a VBSer.
One of my "This is no Bullshit" sea stories...
This is no bullshit:
When i went to Diego in 2001/2002, the bomber pilots would come into the Seaman's Club there since it was the ONE club where you could smoke a Winston while having a brewski,(all the other clubs on the island are Navy-run, and are thus reserved for "oxygen-nazis"...I guess they don't want to damage their lungs while they are poisoning their livers.).
Also, the Seaman's Club sells beer "to go".
Now, I don't want to cast any aspersions on anyone, but it IS a long flight to Afghanistan, and Diego IS 300 miles south of the Equator, and flight suits aren't exactly known to "breathe"(Nomex flame retardant fabric and all that).
But I'd occassionally buy the BUFF and B-1 crews a six pack of beverages in recycable glass bottles, with the express hope that they would dispose of the empties in a proper and eco-friendly manner.
I have, ever since, wondered if there wasn't some dour Taliban asswipe who had his nugget broken wide open from an empty Heineken bottle jettisoned through a bomb bay at 35,000 feet.
God does love His little jokes, as do I, and it would seem a particularly fitting end for one of those particular fellows.
Kinda like if Osama developed rectal gonorrhea..

tim -
I went to your link...that was too funny. I'm a little miffed, though, that so many of us got left out of teh debatribe®.
So, in my own little bid for TRO immortality, here goes:
[nursery rhyme sing-song]
Cecile dumped Debbie-Debbie is a fruitcake
Cecile dumped Debbie-Debbie is a fruitcake
Cecile dumped Debbie-Debbie is a fruitcake
Cecile dumped Debbie-Debbie is a fruitcake
Cecile dumped Debbie-Debbie is a fruitcake
na-na-nuh-na-na
[/sing-song]
I eagerly await my RO hearing, debbie!
BrendaK~~
Thanks. :)
LOL...yeah, I'm kinda jonesin'
for some immortality, too...
I keep thinking of penning a
satire for teh deb™ called,
"Flinging Poo" (sung to the
tune of "Missing You," by
John Waite) :D
p.s. teh!™
kjoe -
She can't go to zero. That's the thing. Maybe her lawyer and parents convinced her to shut down SwP, but she's still doing the Batfrisch Mambo over at AW.
Shame, they don't seem to be dancing with her. Except for bo-peep, of course. He'd dance with anyone.
Thanks, ducky :)
By the way, is anyone here
the "not TEH" who left the
second comment on teh deb's™
pawthetic site (2 September
entry)? I am cheered at teh
plug. :D
Bilgeman,
Have you ever heard of the movie"The Gods Must be Crazy"?
A pilot throws a coke bottle out & it hits a bushman on the head. He thinks its a message from God.
Tim,
........yep.......
kjoe -
I'm talented enought for that!
Gerbils, Gerbil-elect kentuckyjoe has proposed a new parody. Who will take on this momentous task?
(Should have a ceremony for new/delurked Gerbils? Maybe flinging some sawdust at them or something?)
kjoe -
I meant, I'm NOT talented enough for that.
rabbit~~
Many thanks (tahnks?)
when I saw the reference to
tehdebabbeyfiles over *there*,
my heart skipped a beat...
...then I cheered, "teh
yay!™" :D
kentuckyjoe -
My buddy had quite a bit of mud in his kitchen after one of the funnels came rather too close to his place. (But Bob the Hound Dog loved the fact he didn't have to go outside to roll in filth.)
Bilge -
You'd like to think that every once in a while, there's some real "cosmic justice"; enjoyed the tale.
BrendaK -
"Batfrisch Mambo" has been added to the MoP "Evil Ideas" file.
[Insert Boris Badenov laugh here]
I must take care of some errands - new sack of gerbil pellets, fresh wood shavings, changing the shredded newspaper, etc.
Back in a while.
Someone on AbbeyWeb!
Please email me the "personal info" on me that Deb has posted.
I am very interested, as you can imagine...
Fatwa, tank you dahling!
Sinner~~~
it's at my site
http://tehdebabbeyfiles.blogspot.
com
Specifically, teh deb™ sez:
"1. sinner and sulla, the guys who started and manage don't hire
dr. deborah frisch....sinner's got
a daughter and is in the process of moving. he's a software engineer
i think.don't know much about sulla."
Ducky,
I find it supremely ironic that through the use of the Creative Commons license, she explicitly allows her words to be posted, reposted, and composted from here to eternity; then screams bloody murder when someone does - and demands ex post facto editing and deletion rights. If she really was even half as smart as she thinks she is (in her own humble opinion - because we know she is humble - Cecille would probably even say she is humble) she would know that there are multiple Creative Commons licenses that impose various degrees of restriction on published works. If she were twice as smart as she actually is, she would know that her words can be excerpted with attribution under the Fair Use doctrine of Copyright, no matter what restrictions she tries to place on them.
The humble Dr. Snack Cake may be the joker in the deck, but she's missing enough other cards that she's still nowhere near a full deck.
I bet if Cecille could see her former lover now [ewwww!! iiickk! bad visual! bad visual!] she'd be soaking in a big tub of Clorox and calling the local HazMat team to decon the house.
But then, I don't know Cecille, and our humble Deb does - or did...
until she got kicked out...
that's gotta hurt...
Just sayin'...
I love teh deb abbey files blog, but I am having trouble posting over there. Is anyone else having this problem?
If you are in "Blogger beta" you can't post on non-beta blogs.
Jacknapes!
Ph, yeah,
New Thread
Oh-oh-oh!!!! What if that whole thing with the sloooowly disappearing posts over at Debbie's was her attempts TO GET HER AMAZON AD BACK!
Haaaaahahahahahahasnorthahaha!!!!!!
(I'm trying to thin out my herd of !s today.)
as a solution to the blogger beta thing, I think you can still create "non-beta" original blogger accounts and post with those.
I have one of each.
"I don't know much about Sulla."
Deb's reading comprehension really, really sucks. She doesn't know much about anything that isn't spoonfed to her.
Perhaps I should wear a nametag.
HELLO MY NAME IS
Sulla
I think most of it doesn't resonate with her because the details appeared in comments that didn't mention her, so she felt non need to pay attention.
So..if we want to keep anything secret from her, just speak freely, but don't mention Deb. It'll be like the windtalkers in WWII.
Gaaaagh!
