Everything is nothing. Wow! How enlightening.

So, how's that whole, transit strike thing goin anyway? That's gotta suck.

We don't really have mass transit here, except for school busses. Oh, and there's that cab, an 83 Buick with vinyl seats, but it doesn't really count because most of the time Earl is parked over on Ave M and 5th sleepin it off.

Yesssss! Open thread!

An opportune time to use my girlish exclamation points and dole out my football wisdom. Also, I will be flaming my fellow commenters.

Saturday's games:
I pick all the home teams except the following visiting teams:
Pittsburgh
Tennessee
and the upset of the week --
Oakland over Denver

I want to talk about the homos, and I mean the sex!

Okay, I've got nothing, and I don't even have the time to express that nothing.

Bull. Everyone is dying to hear about last night and you are playing coy. One can only assume someone got laid last night.

Someone, somewhere, sure. Just not Ace or Allah.

I'm eighth on this awesome open thread!

I purchased a copy of Star Wars Holiday Special on Ebay. This show was awful. It makes the original Battlestar Galactica look excellent.

My back hurts.

Where's Joe Pesci? What happened to that guy?

Good call, Josie.

I think its time that LauraW provided some GIFs of herself for this moronblog.

Just saying...

I hear she's really short. :)

Are you guys thinking what I'm thinking?

Reality television show with...

Spurwing!

Seriously? That's great.

Can you get screencaps and post them on the web or something?

Yeah, for real.
There's a whole website devoted to the stupid show.

"We've got Nada III."

Only super geeks who watch G4 will get that one...

Bart, that is beautiful.

I've heard of this and seen some screenshots, but that site is fantastic.

Slu, you can buy a copy pretty cheap on the Net. The problem is that many of the copies are poor quality.

The best thing about the copy I got was that it had all the original commercials still in it from CBS broadcast, including CBS news updates that mentioned Breshnez. Plus, the news anchor reported that it was 9 months post-Blizzard of '78 and the expected rise in births never happened.

Wow, what a flashback!

Well how crazed to get at the wife would you be after shoveling that much snow?

I was in grade school.
Gov. Ella Grasso shut down the whole state of CT. No school.

We made snowballs and snow men and snow forts and snow animals. Snow was the world and we were in it up to our armpits.

And when we couldn't feel our hands anymore and our lips turned blue our mommies would order us inside the house for a while.

It was totally awesome.

what's snow?

this is disgraceful.

where's the Mooncup, or baby seal clubbing, or rampant male-on-male sexual innuendo?!?

you've lost your edge, AoSHQ commenters. you've lost your edge.

But!!! Star Wars Holiday Special!

That's got to count for something, right?

My back hurts.

If I come back in January, will you be done whining?

you've lost your edge, AoSHQ commenters

Point taken.

What the fuck is snow? And what does it bring to the table?

I understand the effects of the blizzard were compounded by Dick Cheney devouring all the snowplows.

ace how about a vacation

"ace how about a vacation"

Come on - his life is already one extended vacation.

We need to put Ace to work going through 'back issues' of this blog and posting the best of the best - of the comments - which are what make this blog worth an occasional visit. (Remember Hobgoblin, bbeck etc.)

Judge resigns in protest.

Who is this judge? Is he a paragon of virtue, or partisan hack?

From WaPo:
Robertson is considered a liberal judge who has often ruled against the Bush administration's assertions of broad powers in the terrorism fight, most notably in Hamdan v. Rumsfeld . Robertson held in that case that the Pentagon's military commissions for prosecuting terrorism suspects at Guantanamo Bay, Cuba, were illegal and stacked against the detainees.

Good riddance. Now Bush can appoint another judge.

Johnny Damon officially sucks.
Why?
Because Damon plays for the Yankees and in Boston when you jump ship to the Evil Empire you achieve "suck" status. It's just the fucking way it is.

By the way, Rush must have read my above comment. He just did a segment about the hack judge who was probably going to retire anyway and used this moment to hurt GWB.

Yeah, but at least Damon will have to cut his skanky hair.
