Conservative Thread: We cannot do everything at once, but we can do something at once

[blestmom]

Interesting article about the newest form of communication and how the Dems beat the Repubs to it:

I'm about as technologically advanced as Fred Flintstone - does anyone more savvy use Twitter?

I've heard of it, but I don't use it myself. Can nny tech-savvy people clue us in on it?

I know this is a bit OT, but I found the coolest thing today.

I was at the Dollar Tree looking for scented Christmas candles. Consequently all I found were smelly candles. Why do all the candles there smell like stinky feet?
I digress; I didn't find any good candles because they were all cleaned out. But I did find Disney Christmas window clings!
I got Pooh/Tigger/Eeyore/Piglet and Tinkerbell! Yay!

That's another thing I miss about the Lower 48...dollar stores. We don't have any...

I must say, it was a wonderful Black Friday. My brother and I got up at 4am to go to the local department store. Nothing crazy going on there, but I suggested we run from the car to the front door for tradition's sake. He refused, so we did not. Anyway, I found a great deal on an overcoat for D.C., then decided to go home and go to bed. I spent the evening with my cousin at Epcot. We wanted to attend the opening night of Candlelight and hear Mr. Peterman read the Gospel. It was a delightful evening that I capped off with an Opus X and a Guinness in the France Pavillion after Holiday Illuminations.

One funny story: While waiting in line to purchase a beer in America, I heard a guest ahead of me ask if the seasonal beer was by Sam Adams. The castmember said no, it was Anheuser-Busch. The guest went with a regular Sam Adams. The beer snob in me completely agreed with the guest, but for kicks I thought I would go through the same procedure of asking if the seasonal was Sam Adams, and then rejecting it for the real Sam Adams!

I'm no beer snob, but I was trying to find me some Arrogant B's yesterday. Couldn't find any! Geez, I live in New Jersey!
You'd think we'd find them here?

Had to settle for a very nice French Merlot.


Well, whatya know? I got sensored for a brand name ale?

Bad news - so what is Franken to do?

Sue, of course - or let the Senate decide?!?!?!?!? What the heck?!?!??

Typical-thanks Al Bore for starting this crap. Looks like it will become the OS time honored tradition. Bunch of weiners.

Wow!! Sounds nice!! Your story reminds me- I have a good friend named Sam Adams. Everyone always asks him if he was named after the beer.

If you're interested or if anyone else is interested in my Christmas siggie stuff, feel free to add it to your siggie.

Can I add that little tree to mine? The one that looks like it's doing the hula.

Yeah, except I took Polynesian dance (hula and Tahitian) and that hula is upside-down. It should be moving it's bottom, not it's top.

Haha well that's the best way I could describe it.

What do we know? We're just conservative ignoramuses, right?

I'll bet no one else is going to be at DL or DCA in Dec, huh? Everybody's going to WDW. I can't meet up with anyone.

Are you EVER gonna make it to WDW? Please?? You'll get left out being like the only one of us at DL/DCA.

We'd love to go to WDW; it'll most likely be Sep '09 or Jan '10. Too far away!

 

[TLSnell1981]

I'd love them! Thank you!

Oops! Didn't see this before I sent you the mother lode.

That's WAY too far away!!!

If at first you don't succeed? Sue, sue, sue!!

You guys think the new countdown in my signature is ok? Or should I take it out? I don't think it would violate anything....

I think it is fine, but I bet some others might feel a little bit different about it.

Well who cares what they think. It's what you guys think that matters to me.

Did you change it?? Also "until till" is a bit redundant.

I took the EOAE one out.... yeah, I noticed that when I made that one. I didn't realize the ticker already had "until" in it until I pasted it into my siggy here.

Stuff like that drives me bonkers. Ask Charade how just a period and a comma could send me over the edge.

Ok, well next time I see him around here I will ask.
