I want to know if the suggestion for a food section was going to be taken seriously?

Hey, I nominated you for special mention!!
For Why I blog, at least.
It was tough choosing.
But you’ll have to try a little harder for the coveted title of funniest cat video….the poor little kitty was…in a word, sick.

Ok, here comes your resident reggae head!! Here are some of my friends struttin’ their Christmas Reggae stuff.
First off is Yellow Man, an albino Jamacian that is one of the most incredible performers you’d ever want to see, he also had cancer and part of his face is missing, he’s awesome… and then Jacob Miller, one of the greatest voices in reggae music…he’s doing the same song but a different take
And then John Holt doing I’m Dreamin’ of a White Christmas.
Wanted to add Oh Come All Ye Faithful with Freddie McGregor but it failed. Hope you all merrily enjoy these!!
Merry Christmas

Twas The Night Before Christmas – A Parody

Not a blogger was stirring……til I got in the house,
And I found all I’d missed with the quick click of a mouse.
As I started to read, my belly did shake,
At the words AdLib had written, just for our sake.
So I started to think bout this placed called the Planet
And if there was a button, I sure would fan it.
On topic, off topic, no comments are canned,
We say what we like, and never get banned.
So I’d like to say, before I turn out the light,
That I think everyone here is so brilliant and bright.
Our thoughts become words, give us hope with their meaning,
And let us all know we’re not alone in our dreaming.
So tonight let me thank you, and wish you the best,
And say Merry Christmas….I really must get some rest!

Help Desk

I had a question…How did my profile pic just show up here when I registered on the Planet?
It is my HP and Facebook profile pic. Did it pick it up from one on those sites and insert it here? Cuz I didn’t.

400 Posts! 20,000 Comments! Merry Xmas!

He certainly has more common sense than she’ll ever have and that’s a good start

Well it said the first message wouldn’t load, I edited it and then they both appeared, I guess that’s a double Merry Christmas from me.:-)
I just remembered I could edit…what a great thing that is!!!

Wishing you all a great holiday with the ones you love and a special welcome home to kquark. So glad you didn’t have to spend tomorrow in the hospital.
And congratulations to you wonderful folks who thought up the idea for this site…it can only get better in the coming new year…
I’m so happy to be part of the Planet…Going to spend this wonderful day with my grandson and his cousins, ages 3,4 and 5. Presents, candy and cookies. Children light up my life.
My grandson said he didn’t want anything for Xmas, he had everything he needed. How’s that for a 5 year old?
I’ve been busy working for days now, but I check in everyday to see what we’re talking about, I never felt like I was a part of that “other place” but I feel right at home here. Thanks

Peace and Blessings…Hope

Whoa nellie, this will keep me busy for a while!!
Thanks

I find it too depressing.I truly feel like I lost some of my enthusiasm and intelligence over there, I’m still recuperating from the damage.
And I really don’t care if they adjust their attitude, they just need to tell the truth that they are a right wing web site and just as propaganda filled as the Murdoch empire.

It seems that CNN is doing “Fox lite” in order to try and bring their ratings up. I quit CNN during Lou Dobbs phase out, I have a hard time with most news shows these days.
Seems like everyone is trying to prove they’re not the liberal media or “in love” with the President.
Rarely can get a positive word about this administration, which makes me feel the need to support him whole heartedly.

Health Care Bill Clears Senate Test

Thanks for the updates, Sen Whitehouse is one of my favorites.
And I can’t help but think he is right.
I read that what is being offered is the non profit insurance the Senate and Congress have access to, and was wondering if that wouldn’t act, in some way, the same as the public option, in regards to competitive pricing and costs.

Extra! Extra! Read All About It! – 12-20-09

I’m a day late, but here is some good news for business owners in my area. I know 2 people who this will directly effect.
Seems like Obama may have reached some of these bankers….
our town still has about 13% unemployment.

Marriage equality is now legal in the nation’s capital.

Ok thanks, I will call them…
fingers crossed for ya too…
my friend just made it through breast cancer, so I know how that chemo can wear you out….

Hey bito, I’ve got to get to work, but wanted to say I found the link you mentioned for me the other day, choosehope, I will definitely contact them…looks promising.
Is there a way I could send you one?
I know asking for an address is probably too weird, so I thought maybe a pobox or business or church I could send it too?
I always like to gift my things to a few people every year around this time.
Let me know…Hope

Democracy DOA, Killed by the Supreme Court

Yikes. I’m glad I’ve got days of work ahead of me and won’t be able to reach a computer, worrying is such a waste of time, and busy work will keep my mind occupied.
I’m just sad I’ll miss Friday’s musical blow out….
See you all in a few.

Well at least you have given me a glimmer of hope, but unfortunately I fear it’s only fleeting.
The “work” to get a candidate elected is already hard enough, and now seems it may be near impossible.

This is the only story I have been holding my breath about…
We’re screwed. It seems not to be a matter of when, not if, this passes. I feel as if nothing we say or do will matter anymore.
And,I say not jokingly, I’m really glad I have good friends that live, and own lots of property, in Costa Rica.
The hardest part is there seems there is nothing we can do to stop this from happening.
Seems the teabaggers had it right, while it’s not exactly Obama’s doing, fascism is right around the corner for us.
This is the only bit of news I’ve heard in a LONG time that actually makes me want to break down in tears, and I will when this is passed.
I don’t even suppose that taking to the streets would make any difference. And, after this summer, fashioned by the likes of Dick Army and friends, I’ve realized there are no big corporations that are for a more liberal agenda…
We’re Screwed….is all that’s left to say.
Do we know when they will be voting on this?

Religious Right Holds “Prayercast” To Stop Health Care Bill

I guess I haven’t sent enough Scheherazade, but I’m working on it, I figure I’m going to keep it up over there until I get I banned.
They did let some of my words about the Greek Whoracle go through in my comments, but scrub most of what I say. And nothing, no matter how well disguised, about planetpov, has gotten through except once.
Always like your wit and intelligent comments. Glad you made it out.

A Hole in the Soul

I was contemplating this complacency today AdLib, so many of my friends ask me to please be quiet, they are burnt out and don’t want to hear about it.
The only way I can get some to “engage” is to give me their email addresses and they let be sign petitions and things for them, I’ve got a list of 10 people. These are working folks who put in a good deal of time during the elections, holding house parties and traveling as far as Nevada to knock on doors.
I think part of the GOP tactic is to wear people out so they just turn their backs and go on. Most say they’re not seeing the return for their effort.

Hey Alpha B, hate to bust your bubble, they banned smoking in prisons a while back, jail too, and their health care sucks, take it from me, I know, my seizure son was in the jail and I had to go down there all the time and fight for him to get proper care.

The Public Option Flatlines

ditto, e’cat, I find it hard to believe he said that, doesn’t even sound like something he would say.
but i totally agree with the sun and moon analogy.
The lobbyists got the seat at the table from the beginning and we’re just the dogs under the table hoping for a scrap.
