Yesterday was a hot one. The temperature in the breezeway (my only window exposure) reached 129°, and at my desk, 96°. It’s still 89°. Ugh! Today I go back to the denturist. The lower impression didn’t take. I am current with replies.
Jig Zone Puzzle:
Today it took me 3:19 (average 4:35). To do it click here. How did you do?
Short Takes:
From Politico: Countdown drew 179,000 viewers in the 25-54 demographic – not enough to beat MSNBC’s 237,000 viewers, but enough to beat CNN’s 89,000.
That looks good until you consider that O’Lielly at Faux Noise has over 700,000 brain-dead sheeple.
From The Nation: Rand Paul to America’s Hungry Seniors: Let Them Eat Private Charity
This is an excellent article. Like father, like son.
From Right Wing Watch: PFAW President Michael Keegan’s recent Huffington Post commentary pointed out that former Utah Gov. Jon Huntsman, the latest to throw his hat in the GOP presidential ring, is more conservative than his media-generated image as a moderate. Here’s more evidence supporting Keegan’s claim that Huntsman’s campaign strategy is to try to be all things to all people: Huntsman supporters are making a big play for campaign contributions from LGBT donors — but they aren’t telling the truth about his record.
Just another Republican Reichmeister in moderate clothing.

The irony is just too much:
Sarah Palin Quits Her Bus Tour Halfway Through!

Apparently she only loves the smell of MOTORCYCLE emissions. Buses? Not so much.
Who knew the quitter would quit again! ME, ME, ME!!! This is it, she’s done. She’ll be lucky to keep her Fox job after this stupid stunt! 😆 😈
I think I see tomorrow’s cartoon coming,
4:19 You beat me by a full minute! I am 56 out of 173 (324).
Today’s is a tough one. I think you have a shot.
4:47 I stink!
“Huntsman supporters are making a big play for campaign contributions from LGBT donors — but they aren’t telling the truth about his record.”~~from article. Would that be the “Log Cabin Republicans”, the 600 pound gorilla with fashion sense, in the room? Good luck with that, Mr. Huntsman. 😈 (What? No t-party?)
He’s trying to be the anti-Republican Republican. It will backfire.
Isn’t Portland supposed to have mild temperatures? You are worse than Chicago lately.
700K of people watch that asshole? Wow, I think that’s more people than can’t drive properly. 🙄
Rand Paul is even stupider than his father, as if that were possible.
LGBT people are smarter than to contribute to Repubs, unless you don’t count the Log Cabin Repubs – whom I’ve never understood.
I don’t get the cartoon, but then I don’t know what that black thing is either.
Lisa, outside the high was 82°. The breezeway in my building concentrates heat, especially early in the summer.
I know! Shocking, Isn’t it?
I don’t think it’s possible. Tie.
Perhaps they should rename the group the Gay Masochists Association.
It’s a beaten up used muffler for a car. Compare it to yesterday’s yacht.
