"...The ironic thing is that the PO is one of the very few current government activities authorized by the Constitution." -Vic
An early bit of ingenious pork added by the fellow who printed stamps. Ben, you failed us there.

So, that's how I start a morning, dissing Franklin?
Morning, Glories! May you all personally appreciatr God's watchcare this day!
The Congressional Class of 1974 is Almost gone, Thank God
That photo certainly always does bring it back.

Of all sad words of tongue or pen,
the saddest are these, 'It might have been."
((Thank you, Maetenloch, for the ONT.))

This reminds me of the folks crowding up at the gate at the other end of the ONT waiting for the morning thread.
Why am I stuck in this porn thread when there is a perfectly good ONT qued up somewhere... -Tobacco Road
Because, ve must haff secks und secks und secks und secks und secks und secks....
Holy moly! I just found a half of a bacon sandwich in the fridge. Score!
(Just knew the horde would want to hear that.)
"Just got a nasty note from HR"...
She just hasn't been as nice since she had to change her handle. 
"I doubt that anybody would miss the stupid mewling catamites." -Captain Hate
Ah, a dose of Capt Hate is like a bracing mug of fresh hot coffee.
"You mean this Monica Bellucci?"
Someone strategically arranged those soap suds. Now, there's a Moron career!
Morning, glories.
"Are you telling me the horde went overboard? That's unheard of!' - Chi-Town Jerry
I missed all that. Is that why Maet punished us with an unreadable ONT?
guess I'm not really here. when I wake up, this will all be a fading memory, right? gnite
and Wtf w the post? highlighting all that text is beaucoup hassle on my cell. why are we being punished? whatever it was, I was in the other room!
"...thread-now-banished-to-the-cornfield..."
a) I don't want to know
or
b) I miss all the good times
?
Good evening. Just had two housecats. cabin feverish no doubt, decide to go full caterwhauling on each other, so, I'm awake for a few minutes. Are there a bunch of comments about guitars and heavy metal to lull me back to sleep?

Democrats Fundraising Of Philip Seymour Hoffman's Death
You misspelled "fundraised for."
Those Democrats!
Sandra Fluke Pulls Out Of Running For Waxman's Seat
Really?
All the rich mining of snark, even unto this morning's opening thread, now gone to waste. We could have had months of the fluking funnies.
And I just added fluking to my cell's dictionary. :/
>> Pixy used have message that you've already said that. -Carol
It still does. Normally. Pixy probably checks the database same way we do. Probably a slight processing delay between where true commment goes in and where it gets seen. Have to check for spam, and the NSA has to do their checks. Anyway, If your post hasn't shown up yet, Pixy won't see it, either, so it won't know you've posted that already.
That's my armchair theory and I'm Velcro'd to it.
>>At this point, can we all admit that we'd rather have Joe Biden as Prezzy?
>>His only saving grace is that he's not an out-and-out traitor
Also, being an old white guy, his only Teflon is Democratium, which has decayed a lot.
But that's when we find out Biden was the secret mastermind behind the Obama presidency all along.
Sven " claims he posts cryptically and confusingly on purpose." -DangerGirl
That was just code for what he really meant.
