Hey that gives me an idea
Let's get out of this bar
Drive out into the country
And find a place to park.
'Cause I'd like to see you out in the moonlight I'd like to kiss you way back in the sticks
I'd like to walk you through a field of wildflowers
And I'd like to check you for ticks.
A friend of mine used to say that. We'd be out drinking and some handsome lad would happen by and she'd squint and say, "Hot damn, looka there. Ah'd sure like to check him for ticks."
Ah-yup.

Love you, lolo.
TRex? I thought you were taking Friday nites off for book writing?
Those lyrics are not a joke! It’s the absolute worst song ever…and that’s saying something.
Suzanne @ 4
TRex!!! What no dive tonite, Ma Cheri?
Suzanne @ 4
Absolutely nobody wants to take the Friday night shift. I’m the only one, apparently who has no life enough that I’m consistently around on Friday night.
Near zed!
Hi TRex!
TRex @ 7
I don’t want to know what that makes us for reading it. What kind of fuckery is this?!?!
TRex @ 7
You hate us.

Is it worse than “Drop Kick, Jesus, Through the Goal Post of Life?” Haven’t that one in a million years.
kirk murphy @ 8
Oh, just stroll in like you haven’t called or written in ages, why don’t you.
Where have you been, young man?
Hiya TRex! Hiya y’all!
That’s right, ya little brats, yer bleedin’ me dry!! BLEEDIN’ ME DRY!!
Now go fix Daddy another vodka stinger…
Hi Cassie, did you get your Harry Potter book yet?

Nope. It comes in the mail or the UPS tomorrow.

Hi Snark. You having a good evening?
Dr. Dick, any relief on the weather?

I heard that everybody dies. Oh, wait, I’m thinking of Hamlet.
(((((((TRex!TRex!TRex!)))))))
Twain @ 11
I think so. I could only take a few seconds before my ears were bleeding and my cortex started imploding and separating from my skull.
The really bad thing about it was that the dude singing thought that the line about the ticks would help get him into the chicks pants. Gross.
I will tolerate absolutely no Harry Potter spoilers on this thread.
LA LA LA LA LA LA LA LA!!!!
*shuts eyes and covers ears*
LA LA LA LA LAAAAAA!!
I want Snape and Voldemort to die, and maybe Draco. And I want everyone else to live.
TRex @ 14
no.

One for you, Trex, and one for me. Or two. It’s Friday, what the hell?

wangie!!!
I must say I never got into the Harry Potter thing, but my best friend (late 40’s like me) can’t wait to get her hands on that last book.
SnarKassandra @ 30
HA!! I resemble that remark.
My copy of Harry Potter will be delivered tomorrow, so there had better NOT be any spoilers on this thread. Srsly.
SnarKassandra @ 30
That may not be the best nickname ever, Cassie.
Loo Hoo. @ 3
Love you too LooHoo! Evening Pups!

I kinda like that one.
Also like “I’m Proud to Be an Assh*le from El Paso.”

Well, it’s gone. As AK says, *poof*!
lolo @ 35
Heya Lolo!
hey lolo :-)
Suzanne @ 25
Damn, Suzanne. You say that word with such authorita.
I think I’m the only person in the “free” world who has absolutely no interest in Harry Potter. Even my own family is planning on camping at Barnes and Noble tomorrow. >yawn
EvilDrPuma @ 34
It’s all good.
{{{GROUP HUG!}}}
TRex, I think you scared Kirk away!
There are real bad ticks on the little Potomac River islands. Canoe, lunch, gray blanket, nekkid girl and a billion ticks. That was ~40 years ago, maybe the tick situation is better now. We were picking ticks off of each other for days.

I haven’t been around these parts in many, many moons; and I don’t understand this,
Hey, anybody want some rain? We’ve just had another week of rain just about every day. Which means that it has rained about 75% of the days in south Central Texas since the first of May

Hello? Keith Olberman was on some kind of a Potter outback tonight. No intiendo.
So ….. I have been posting about impeachment the last few days. Did the third post today.

lord, yes — send it up this way. The weather guy was just on teevee talking about the drought here.
LoudounLib @ 48
Ah…thank goodness, another unbeliever!
Suzanne @ 47
Yeah, I did a few weeks of California therapy once. I was supposed to repeat an affirmation every morning. Something about “I love and accept my inner sociopath”. But I had to leave town before we got anywhere.
A little reward for loyal Late Niters who’ve tuned in this lazy summer evening:
I believe this information from commenter Kpete at DU, reporting on a visit to San Diego by John Conyers today, qualifies as “breaking news” in the Inherent Contempt (and perhaps something more?) department:

I love ya man! And no shit, mushrooms are growin’ out my toes.
hahahaha Ticks! Eeeewwww! Living in a city in California, I had forgotten what ticks were! But in Oklahoma, we had a lot of them. (I remember back then, you would have to hold fire near where they were because if you pulled them out, THE HEAD WOULD STAY IN THERE! OMG! Gee, thanks, TRex, for bringing back hideous memories! LOL
LoudounLib @ 54
Whenever someone tries to deny global warming to you just point them to global climate change as more accurate since that covers a summer of rain in Texas, after temps in the thirties on Easter and also covers New England having temps in the seventies in Dec.
I feel so safe and protected now. I’m outta here and in the pool. I hear Lahoma calling from out back, “kiddo, the water is fine”.

AP - President Bush breathed new life into the CIA’s terror interrogation program Friday in an executive order that would allow harsh questioning of suspects, limited in public only by a vaguely worded ban on cruel and inhuman treatment.

LooHoo, AK blogs here
Loo Hoo. @ 65
You mean his blog?
howdy pups!
good night and sleep well, dakine
hey fini!
One of the 4 horsemen was here in Southern CA. visiting the Los Angeles harbor trying to figure out how to check shipping containers. Took him long enough. Just thinking about him so close to my hood is scary.
lolo
Is anyone else as nervous as I am about the colonoscopy tomorrow? I never thought I would be praying for the continued good health of George W Bush.

It’s like the lesser of two evils…
finifinito @ 75
Hope they can pull McConnell out of there while there at it.
Seriously though, something is wrong enough that they have to ’scope his innards. This makes me overly nervous, especially since I didn’t know this was coming up until yesterday or today. Cheney only needs an hour or two of being in charge to bring this country to its knees.
Speaking of unexpected country music, on his new disc Teddy Thompson channels the ghost of Jim Reeves. Just weird.
LoudounLib @ 77
or the lesser of two weevils (like Master & Commander_)
burnspbesq @ 80
Didn’t know Teddy has a new one out — should I pass? I did like the last one.

My favorite is “Up Against the Wall Redneck Mother.”

True, long enough to launch ‘Shock and Awe’ on Teheran!!!

Where have you been, young man?
[hangs head]
well…the last half hour trying to respond to your comment without firefox refreshing the page…sigh
but the month before that I had a great time at witchcamp…yay…
and then came back to big ‘ol organizational problems in one of the groups I love (trusted couple could not be trusted with community funds…blergh)
now I am back at the Lake and happy (except for the browser thing)
sorry I didn’t write…..
[hangs head]
Hmmmm if anything happens during his procedure the last thing he did was to ratchet down his torture rules. Is that for his legacy in case something happens and he takes the next train to Clarksville?
EvilDrPuma @ 21
..or the State of the Union
Cheney couldn’t take the dummy’s slurred esses anymore.
The ‘routine operation’ is to temporarily remove Cheney’s arm for carpal tunnel treatment, and make sure the mouth and eyebrow linkages work smoother.
Maybe theyre installing new firmware.
Speaking of ticks, girls and blankets, I recall a similar combination involving chiggers. Ticks are visible: chiggers only manifest themselves later when you are trying to take a test, writing with your right hand and scratching with your left. And don’t eve ask where one might be scratching.
I thought he did it to protect himself from torture if Cheney formalizes the coup.
I was looking for a video of Redneck Mothers and found this one of Ray Wylie Hubbard telling the story about how he came to write it….he tells a great story:

In terms of country/folk, I feel these days one needs something blunter and more to the point.. like Eliza Gilkyson’s “Man of God” :).. even shrub might be smart enough to figure out he’s the subject.
Evening, everyone.
Thanks, Suzanne and Gordon.
Just got a call that my computer is fixed. I’ll see if it’s true tomorrow. I’m so excited at the possibility! What’s interesting is that I told the manager at Fry’s that I was going to YK2, and definitely needed by July 30th. He smiled big time, and now it’s possibly ready?!
The other employee said it would take two weeks.
I’m stoked!

So happy you’re getting your computer tomorrow!
I’m holding out for video of Choctaw Bingo instead of the lyrics page I linked.
I have a new post on YouthInkLeft about Mountaintop Removal.

Hey, RonD! The most polite guy on the tubes. Love ya, Ron!

Ah those messy little creatures — chiggers. My grandkids came home from camping with them all over every part of their body that was in water last week. Every. Part. Gruesome. There commenced a constant stream of oatmeal baths for 4 kids — with the resulting mess in the bathrooms.
Suzanne @ 108
Here’s video of James McMurtry from Austin City Limits where he performed Choctaw Bingo.

Cassie, you should send this to Christy.
