Friday Music Thread–Moving to The Planet Soon, Gonna Buy…

Bito! You and I have so much in common, Bro. Stevie Goodman was one of my all time favorites (as Prine, which we have discussed). I cried all day when Steve died. He was a prince.

One of many I love from my boyfriend, Jackson Browne. Watch David Lindley at 7:05. And that, folks, is how it’s done!

WATCH LIVE: Mubarak Resigns! Egyptians Celebrate!

Cher: Have you ever tried Sambucus? I SWEAR by it! Looks like (yuk) cough syrup, tastes like pie! YUM. Take it every hour if you can. It works AMAZINGLY well. We’ve used it for almost 10 years, and I never have to go to the doctor with colds/flu anymore.

and lest we forget this….

**EDIT** You only have to listen from about 3:06 to 3:17 to get the gist. No point in putting yourselves through more than is needed…….

Oh Patsy! You always know how to grant my wishes. You da bomb (in a nice, non-violent way).

I think we need a Beck ventriloquist dummy. Oh wait! That’s redundant. A marionette? Dance, Glenny, dance.

BTW: ordering Planet swag for Christmas/birthday gifts this year. I always like my gifts to actually MEAN something and help a good cause.

Morning Blog

Morning, Ms. K! Perzactly. Wish I had time to read today’s MB, but I’m off & running to work. Maybe later – I always try and at least look at the photos……..

Okay, if my answer yesterday made you grin – here’s the Perryesque response to todays trivia:

Mistakenly pointing to NH as VT on a map???

» Posted By AlphaBitch On November 13, 2011 @ 9:05 am

K: I don’t mind at all. Really. Trust me, it’s so nice to be able to pay postage and get something somewhere, as opposed to having to find couriers to take things to AFG.

I agree – the Blov has an outstanding PPT on the Wall in Palestine/Israel and the Berlin Wall.

I will never stay quiet about the matter; as good old Jesus said: Ye shall know the truth and the truth shall make you free. And I have photos and the Blov’s first hand experience; and I have a mouth the size of Russia, so keeping quiet on the subject doesn’t work.

But I have to say: since 2003, when the Blov went, I have seen a marked increase in people here in the U.S. who are now tuned into the issue, and who are questioning our motives. For the first time, ever. Makes me have that hope thingy-ma-bob.

When you have to pay someone to be your “friend”, you’re not really that well liked. It goes to our relationship with Israel, and our relationship trying to buy them friends in Egypt and Jordan.

To quote Stephen Bruton (RIP) from Rich Man’s War – “when you buy an ally, you can treat ’em like a whore”. Guess who “bought” us????

We give Israel $8.2 million a DAY in military aid. That sucks. No other way to put it.

Now, off to bed for me. Sweet dreams and all that crap. It’s a rich man’s war, but it’s a poor man’s fight. – AB

Oh, K! I will share with Salwa. I now only see her about once a year, which saddens me. But I love her like a sister. The Blov went to Palestine WITH Salwa that year that forever changed us both on the issue.

Send me an email and a postal for you; I will eventually get you an amazing video.

The one painting I love most is the one of the man covering his face. She painted a duo – Grieving Father and Grieving Mother. Mother sold, and if I ever have extra cash, I’m buying Father.

One of my host moms had “discovered” Salwa, and had purchased one of her paintings BEFORE I ever met her. We have a woodblock print of boats along the Nile. Simply beautiful, and probably our favorite piece of art.

Thanks again, and I know Salwa will appreciate it. – AB

K: I have a friend, a Palestinian artist (Salwa Arnous – check her out; her paintings and prints are amazing), who actually has PALESTINE as the country of her birth on her passport. You should hear what she went through to get that.

When people say “Palestine was never a ‘country'”, I remind them to look at maps that show that land marked Palestine BEFORE 1948.

Honestly. Makes me so nuts. Deny it, and it will go away. Or shoot it if it doesn’t. Bibi Nuttyyahoo is as big a dick as Cheney.

I wish for all Palestinians as safe and secure a home as I wish for all Jews. I just want a more level playing field for them.

HA, Sue – fooled ’em. Had the uterus yanked out when I was in my 40s. Best thing I ever did – can wear white any day I want, swim without worry of sharks, etc.

No, these people have nothing about the Pup or the others. They are just those “my little darlings are so precious everyone will love to hear their screams at 8AM, so Mummy and Dada can get some more sleep” type.

I truly love kids – have been “Auntie” (or now, Khala) for so many. But there are well mannered children, and there are brats. And sometimes well behaved children ACT like brats. But these children are, I believe, JUST brats. I’ve seen little of them that belies that.

OK, enough. Too nice a day to spoil it sulking.

Yell-o K & Em!

Open house tomorrow. The horrid chirren in the McMansion behind us were screaming as usual. Blov shouted Shuddup, at which point they lined up at the fence and screamed even more loudly. I then told the Pup to look and see: it makes so difference how much $$ you have, you can still be white trash. The little darlings then yelled in unison: We’re calling the police! And I replied “FOR WHAT??” That made the never present mummy and dada come usher the little darlings inside.

This man was one of the Obama haters from WAAAYYY back, and proudly and stupidly kept his No Socialism sign in the yard way past its due date.

GRRRRR. I love children, but hate it when parents allow them to harass and bother those with whom they share no DNA. They -like their rich trash dad – are rude. AB is gonna nip ’em next time….

SO: I’m guessing the Chinese used the Popeil Pocket Fisherman fishing rod. Just cuz I wanted to say “Popeil”.

Trust your weather will change soon, dear Ms. K.

And Em: SO fun on VOX wit ya last night…..

Helllooooooooooooooo! No, I can’t grant Khirad’s wish. Heck – we can’t even email each other. Could you zap him my email? I have a question to ask him – see below. He thought he had my email, but it bounced back. I know someone from DOS also is trying to email me, but it never gets here. Hmmmmmmmmmm…….suspicious, very suspicious.

Drat you, Ms. K! Now I will spend today thinking and musing and amusing myself with first names for Mr. Frankenstein!!! Wasn’t Frank by any chance, was it???

My MIL leaves today. She’s such a sweetheart -truly. Still working on selling the house. I’m not as gung ho this’ll do as before. Reality plus fatigue.

Love the blog – can go to it any time of day. It’s morning somewhere, right??? – AB

» Posted By AlphaBitch On November 5, 2011 @ 7:04 am

Is it up to me Khirad? If so, your wish is granted. I hear Wizard of Oz on TV right now, so just click those ruby slippers, young man.

However, if you can only be granted such a wish by the inimitable Ms. K, then you should ask her.

If you get a chance, send me an email. My computer wiped out all stuff for the last three years, and I lost your email. Wanted to chat with you re: my Syrian child. Ask K or AdLib or the Bits to send you my email if you no longer have it. Thx. -AB

A llamel? A camama? Sorry to post and run, but you know.

PS I like both words and intend to use them even if they are incorrect. Just look what you started!

» Posted By AlphaBitch On November 4, 2011 @ 9:33 am

Kalima: echoing those from yesterday, your MB means so much to so many of us. On some days, I can read some of the articles (those are the good days). On others, I do a sneak and peek. Sometimes, all I am allowed is a look at the photos (yesterday). On others – like today – the best I can manage is a quick hello and a cup of coffee in my MB mug, which I absolutely treasure and which I use EVERY day to keep you near. You are the best.

And for today’s trivia – going for my second win in as many years – Doris Day????? I think I remember her telling the story on some show. Of course, I could be wrong (more likely), but my hat is in the game nonetheless.

Off to work now. Catching up on three weeks. Got our first offer on the house 1 week after putting it up on the market. It’s a good offer – slightly – only ever so slightly – below asking price.

Catch you later. Stay safe and dry.

Who’s a good girl??/ Huh?? Who’s my good girl??? Denver????

» Posted By AlphaBitch On September 22, 2011 @ 10:15 am

Bito…did YOU eat those kitty treats??? xo AB

» Posted By AlphaBitch On September 22, 2011 @ 10:08 am

Kes, are you Denver?

“Denver, look at me! Did you eat those kitty treats?”

We know he just had a guilty face……

BTW it’s what I call the Pup when I am teasing him. That and Jethro for his never ending appetite.

» Posted By AlphaBitch On September 22, 2011 @ 10:07 am

Kes, you are so funny! We are kindred spirits. We are never hesitant to confess when we cheat! But we also remove ourselves from the competition. I want you on my team. You crack me up. – AB

» Posted By AlphaBitch On September 22, 2011 @ 9:23 am

Dag nab it! I actually KNEW the answer. I looked it up, so now I can’t respond. Poot.

» Posted By AlphaBitch On September 22, 2011 @ 8:10 am

Oh, Em – I’ll gloat allright. Trust me. But this way I ensure that if I tie my fate to his, I won’t wish for him to die yesterday. My way of “keepin’ it honest”.

Besides which, I’ll be able to give those first hand reports to the Planet and Beyond! – AB

» Posted By AlphaBitch On September 22, 2011 @ 8:08 am

Good morning, Queen Kalima – ruler of all she surveys! My, don’t you smell sweet this morning! Must be that long bath…….

It was quite a troubled night at the Planet. So much sorrow. Can’t help but just have Jackson Browne’s song The Pretender as my soundtrack for today. My sincere prayer is that Troy Davis’ death will have been much, much less painful than those awaiting those that ordered his execution. And that more people will have mourned for him than will mourn for – oh, I don’t know – Clarence Thomas? Antonin Scalia?

I always pray to die 5 minutes BEFORE Dick Cheney, which in some ways keeps me hoping for him to live a long, long life. But I do SO want to be there to see the shock and dismay on his face when he meets St. Peter……….

Take care. House tending day today. Pup’s first big tests in math and history. Too bad this is now part of our history….-AB

Hang tight, Sister! Sorry to hear about the window leak; hopefully it will be easy to remedy. Glad to hear the drains are working, although “water” might not be so appealing right now.

Off to work – busy week. DO check in and let us know you and the tribes have all made it through fine (oh yeah – and the SuperHandyman dude as well)
