ND, did you remember to kiss Emma for me?

Sounds like a job for the Fab Five, beth!

If the guys are obsessing about exercise and cutting carbs out of their diet, it sounds like the Fab Five have already been there and their work is done.

it makes NOBODY HAPPY to say NO PRESENTS

Except, maybe, say, the BRIDE AND GROOM.

Rio, friends of mine asked that in lieu of gifts money be donated to a group working for gay marriage so they could one day share this particular joy with ALL their friends. It was very moving (and my Mom got them a picture frame anyway)

Beverly, ND says he remembered.

ND: I also remembered to aim the little puke machine away from me

He also rememberd to wish for her a PREHENSILE TAIL

Good lord. Former Crowded House drummer Paul Hester has died: [link]

Thanks, Trudy. And good job on the puke-machine aiming.

ND, no prehensile tail! She needs corsets, makeup and a tiara, not a tail.

I had another wish for her as well, that didn't involve a tail.

Joe thought that the tail would be pretty cool too.

Good lord. Former Crowded House drummer Paul Hester has died.

I just saw that on the news. It's so terribly, terribly sad.

Thanks, Trudy. And good job on the puke-machine aiming.

I think that was ND saying (through Trudy) that he remembered to point the puke machine away from himself. Trudy got puked on good and plenty.

I'm looking forward to lots of pictures from Puke MachinePrincess Emeline's ceremony.

It looks like the Bush bothers bit off more than they can chew with the Schiavo case. Protesters are turning their rage at them for not doing enough. Calls for them to have the manhood to ignore the courts and step in to protect her. Calls for the National Guard. The family has for the last couple days tried to get them to calm down somewhat, but not exactly gonna happen. [link]

What a quote:

"If Gov. Bush wants to be the man that his brother is, he needs to step up to the plate like President Bush did when the United Nations told him not to go into Iraq," Randall Terry, a protest organizer, said of the governor. "Be a man. Put politics aside."

Sadly, as I expected, my mother gets teary eyed and feels the poor "disabled" woman in being murdered. She made us promise not to starve her to death. She was rational enough to listen to some of my points and I encouraged her to read the actual court documents and not the fanatic quotes. Her Catholic beliefs are a factor here. I feel sad when she is in pain.

I hate that this private family matter has been made yet another political battle.

"Be a man. Put politics aside."

You misspelled the law, Randall.

In my head, there are a number of nasty epithets that end that last sentence.
