I posted this awhile ago at Craig's. I'm thinkin' they REALLY are too unsophisticated to understand knobites, cause nobody responded:  "Well, darlin's, life is slowly returning to the knobs. I'm serious. We've been living in a sort of suspended animation for a loooooonnnngggg time--But now folks are beginning to perk up, and the sounds of music are abroad in the land that we haven't heard since--Lord, last season-- www.youtube.com/watch?v=nHARCFLdk_QAnd the sounds will continue to build and build until, less than eighteen hours from now, we'll stand up (some in situ, some in living rooms all around the listening area) and burst into a mighty roar that all but drowns out Bob Kesling: "IT'S FOOTBALL TIME IN TENNESSEE!!!!" Later, darlin's, I gotta hunt out my orange and white game day clothes--" Now what's so tough about that? Wanna blog? And no, Big Man, Lady Fair's not watchin'. Unless, of course, you're wearing an orange and white tie, but I don't see that happenin'.  |

Mom, strangely, is watching Rick Sanchez, who's apparently sitting in for Cambie over on CNN.  |

Life is short, Fair ... Eat dessert first. That looks very nice, but, how do you cut it? |

 Well, now that we have dessert out of the way , we can start the REAL meal with a lovely cornbread salad, and ....  A lovely Caprese, for those who prefer that ... (she raises her hand and waves frantically). |

Have you noticed that KO no longer mentions Billo? My theory is that in order for him to save face, he was allowed to wean himself off that obsession so that it wouldn't look like an order from on high. Instead, he has fixated on his latest less-than-magnificent obsession with all things Beck.

Instead, he has fixated on his latest less-than-magnificent obsession with all things Beck. Billo probably thinks he ran Olbermann off the field, so they're about even about saving face. As for Beck, the Big Man has just traded one obsession for another, and since Beck crossed a line with that "deep seated hatred of white people" quip that not even Billo ever dared to cross, he can get away with his obsession. (I wish other companies would show UPS's spine and take advertising dollars away from Fox altogether. If Rupert were having to pay for it all out of his own pocket, we'd soon see changes.) |

One of the best things about TN football is when he (we're on our seventh or eighth one, I think--they're purebreds and live short beautiful lives) gets riled up and barks, that deep hoarse echoing bark--got a beautiful mouth on him-- |

Honey, we cain't even SAY that thar cheese name, let alone SPELL it!!! PS Although fried baloney with Hellman's mayo, Dee-John mustard, a piece o' good ol' Mercan cheese, a vidalia onion slice and a beefsteak dermater'd be awful good. Specially since 'at durn redneck Mr. Clown done REE-negged on his promise of free 'uns. ;D |

 Sigh. We interrupt our dinner plans to bring you a fried bologna sandwich. I couldn't find exactly the right accoutrements, but it still looks pretty good. If you like that sort of thing. I happen to like that sort of thing. Sometimes. |

ROFLMAO cause that's almost what Ben Franklin said in that piece he supposedly wrote advising a younger friend that he should take an older woman for a mistress-- ;D |
