Heh, I left the link on Arianna’s FB page. Funny thing though, said it was bing Filtered to “Others” which if one thinks about it, those are the folks who might be interested. Duh… 🙄

Props to SilentDances for the brilliant idea, here is a YouTube video you can post at HP to invite friends and colleagues to The Planet. Probably best just to provide the link and just say “Check this out” or something innocuous like that. Here’s the link to the video for sharing at HP:

And for your viewing, here is the admittedly quickie video:

Ah, Hume. Bless his heart.

Abby,

You really will like it here. I think I mentioned yesterday, I retired “from the dark side” December 2009. HITO coaxed me, and her’s was the best invite ever.

I hope you and the others find time to explore The Planet and dig into the archives to read many excellent posts and comments.

Thanks Patsy, but only if I don’t break a hip. 😉

Nah, puke. Watched and heard. Pukeee!

Seriously, why am I still awake @ 1:18 AM EST, Tues., 2/8/11?

Dear Newbies and welcome from the EST. However, since I am in this damn EST zone, I really need to get my beauty rest. That said, The Planet is a great place (been here myself since 12/2009) and, although we respectfully disagree with each other at times, we really like each other.

Follow the terms of participation and you’ll find The Planet is a great place to call home.

Two thumbs up and a few of those snap, snap thingys!

As you well know, my daughter teaches Kindergarten. I am here to avoid being there, with the exception of her weekly phone calls and when I help during parent orientation at the beginning of the school year.

😆 I told him so, but he didn’t believe me.

PS…couldn’t add the image of my straight up, Bombay Blue Sapphire, dash of bitters, two olive (okay three) martini. I even found the damn picture too. Damn, the woman has been spoiled.

The Planet has spell-check — seriously. And better yet, one doesn’t have to “fake” spelling to get the fucking message posted.

» Posted By boomer1949 On February 7, 2011 @ 5:52 pm

C’lady,

I don’t believe it for a minute. Did you check for rug burns on the knees?

» Posted By boomer1949 On February 7, 2011 @ 5:49 pm

I doubt it. There’s something to be said for being a grownup. 🙂

AdLib,

Do you need an Administrative Assistant? 😉

I am sooo jealous!

Kev,

Can I post one of my idiotic kittie videos now?

From PBSNewshour Monday 2/7/2011:

HUFFINGTON AND AOL CEO ON BUYOUT | In a bid to regain its foothold in online media, Internet giant AOL is purchasing The Huffington Post news blog for $315 million. Jeffrey Brown discusses the details of the buyout with AOL CEO Tim Armstrong and Arianna Huffington, founder and editor-in-chief of Huffington Post.

***EDIT***I see a letter to Jeffrey in my future. Go figure, I was sent to PBSNewshour Moderation:

Dear Jeffrey (Mr. Brown):

If you believe the smoke-and-mirror-story Mr. Armstong and Ms. Huffington gave in your interview, then I have a bridge for you to consider purchasing.

Seriously Mr. Brown, there is far more to this than meets the eye, and as a responsible journalist, it would be well-worth the effort to investigate further.

Has anyone looked into Ms. Huffington’s connections to Mr. Issa or Mr. Gingrich.

Looks are deceiving and there are many who saw her true colors before she had the audacity to raise the flag. Yet, she still remains under the radar.

Whatever happened to investigative, tell-it-like-it-is journalism?

Welcome Wiser…inhale, exhale, inhale, exhale.

It’s the real deal.

Don’t throw — unless your insurance covers destructive behavior. 😆

We just went through a server change, so please be patient. Info from AdLib, our Fearless Leader, webmaster, and computer phenom:
