The Daily F Bomb – Thursday, 1/24

Have a Thrilling Thursday, my Thermonuclear F-Bombers!

If there were a talking filibuster and you were a Senator filibustering something, what would YOU use (book, etc.) as your filibuster talk? What is the most beautiful rural place you have ever seen? What is the most beautiful urban place you have ever seen? Risotto or Paella? What is your favorite one hit by a one hit wonder?What makes your most annoying neighbor so annoying?

My Twitter Stream was muddied a bit, mostly by the Hillary Hearings.

Now let’s talk History!

Wednesday Doggies or the Woozles of the Wednesday

The Daily F Bomb, Wednesday 1/23

Benevolent greeting, my ineffably esteemed Effers!

Do you have a musical guilty pleasure? Do you have a movie that is a guilty pleasure? How about a food? Do you currently have a crush on any famous person? Who? Is there room in your life for edible glitter? What hobbies do you have?

Here are some Tweets from deepest Tweetistan:

Annanuther Member Joins the Herd

…and here i are.  another of the kos refugees.  many of you are already here and know me.  i’m a retired ME (and just for the record, CSI is a TV show, not life in the ME’s offices), my ME status is a Ph.D. not an m.d and i don’t give medical advice to live people.  i may give an opinion if asked but i’ll always refer you to your own doctor.  what i may do, also, is, if i have had similar to your medical complaint, give you my experience, and still refer you to your own doc.  i can’t prescribe and i won’t.

i’m a panda lover.  i’ve been to china to see the pandas and experience the chinese culture. i adore fuzzy animals.  i admire reptiles, but i won’t approach one.  fish are cool, but, i prefer the marine mammals.  bears, pandas, polar, all kinds are my favorite animals.  i love the pootie diaries although i can’t have cats.  allergies to cat saliva, alas.  

UPDATE – Urgent Prayers/Healing Thoughts for GreenMountainBoy02

Commonmass has a new diary up at GOS; I’m on my phone so this will be brief.

GMB02 is on full life support with slim chance to pull through.  Family is there.  Tomorrow they talk about whether to take him off life support.  Thoughts and prayers to Bill and family.

Update from commonmass in his diary:

His family is coming out from Western Vermont and NY State and northwestern MA. He received the sacrament of Baptism this evening as well as the Anointing of the Sick.

I’d posted a comment in the open thread diary earlier, but in case people don’t see it, commonmass’s fiance, GreenMountainBoy02 (aka GMB02) at GOS is currently going through a health crisis and in ICU on a respirator.  I wasn’t going to diary this initially, but commonmass just posted that he’s on his way to the ICU because he’s been told GMB02 may die.  The Diary is here:

Update on Kossack GreenMountainBoy02’s Health Crisis

If you don’t know commonmass (Bill) or GMB02, they are the kindest, sweetest people, who just recently got engaged.  If you can ask for healing in whatever tradition/faith/etc. you are comfortable with, it would be appreciated I’m sure.

From Seneca Falls, to Selma and Stonewall: Guided by the ancestors

From Seneca Falls, Selma and Stonewall: Guided by the ancestors

When I heard these words spoken by President Obama at his second inaugural

We the people declare today that the most evident of truth that all of us are created equal — is the star that guides us still; just as it guided our forebears through Seneca Falls and Selma and Stonewall

and the echo of those same words in the invocation delivered by Myrlie Evers-Williams

we celebrate the spirit of our ancestors, which has allowed us to move from a nation of unborn hopes and a history of disenfranchised votes, to today’s expression of a more perfect union…

we ask for your guidance toward the light of deliverance and that the vision of those who came before us and dreamed of this day, that we recognize that their visions still inspire us. They are a great cloud of witnesses unseen by the naked eye, but all around us, thankful that their living was not in vain.

I was moved.  

The Daily F Bomb, Tuesday 1/22

Good morning, Effers! Yesterday was pretty cool, no? I rather enjoyed it.

Let me try to focus my nosiness on yesterday’s festivities: Is Obama a good dancer? What was your favorite part of his speech? Are you prepared for the inevitable backlash against Michelle for rolling her eyes at Boehner? How many pairs of Jimmy Choo shoes do YOU own? What was the best musical interlude of the day? Does crab with clam chowder sauce sound edible to you?

Twitter is Troublesome Tonight, but I will Try:

Time for the history lesson below the fold:

The Daily F Bomb, Monday 1/21 Inauguration Day

Happy Inauguration Day!  I remember being in those crowds four years ago. Never before had I seen so many people crowded together and moving so slowly and STILL all in a fabulous mood. Every time the crowd had to stop moving for a moment, people would turn to whoever they were next to and ask, “So where are you from?” It was really fun, really amazing.

This year I get to watch from the comfort of my couch. Crowded with cats, clutching a cup of coffee. Hopefully not coughing. 😉

I will not let you off the hook on my nosy questions, however. Why would I do that?

For starters, what was your first car? Should there be nuts in brownies? What about frosting? If you were being inaugurated, whose bible (or what other book) would you want to be sworn in on? Do you like Michelle’s bangs? What did you keep in  your high school locker? When you travel, do you travel light or heavy? What scene that you witnessed in your pre-every phone having a camera life do you wish you had been able to capture in a photo?

Last nights Twitter offerings are:

Now, it’s time for your history lesson. Pay attention, and don’t forget to read the hovers.
