Consuela, I hope the meds adjustment goes well and your mom feels fine.

ita, when do you leave?

A friend of mine left today for the Congo for two weeks to do consulting work. I'm a little worried, it's not very stable. I also told her to beware of monkeys.

"And to be clear, I am the hell. And the high water."

2:30 P.M. - BATON ROUGE, La. (AP) -- As President Bush visits Louisiana, it's hard to hide the rift with Louisiana's governor over hurricane relief efforts.

Both leaders have been talking to people in Baton Rouge today, but not always with each other.

At the Bethany World Prayer Center, Bush and Kathleen Blanco seemed like estranged in-laws at a holiday gathering, keeping their distance as they walked around.

According to Blanco's office, the governor wasn't informed of the timing of Bush's visit, nor was she immediately invited to meet him or travel with him.

Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.

According to Blanco's office, the governor wasn't informed of the timing of Bush's visit, nor was she immediately invited to meet him or travel with him.

Also, Bush brought enough candy for everyone except her.

"Look, son, if it's good enough for Shirley Bassey, it's good enough for you."

Also, Bush brought enough candy for everyone except her.

She didn't get invited to his birthday party either.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.

Friday night, Sue.

I should be preparing for it, not blathering about it. Off I go.

And then Ortus came and said "It's Ortin' time" and they all Orted off into the sunset

Trent Lott on MSNBC claiming he is "just like everybody else" because he lost his house.

I wonder how long it would take me to get over to Rockefeller Center and bash him in the head repeatedly with a hammer?

Silence means security silence means approval

She didn't get invited to his birthday party either.

She's called a press conference this afternoon to accuse Bush of not calling her about the sale at Claire's and anyway, he has a unibrow that he has to pluck every night.

When asked about Blanco's press conference, White House spokesman Scott McClellan put his thumb and index finger to his forehead in an "L" shape.

Also, Bush stomped off in a snit when Blanco refused to allow him to pet Patches, her puppy, instead telling him, "Patches doesn't like to be petted by babies."
