With today being the 5th anniversary of 9-1-1, I remembered. Because who could forget?
Who could forget that cloudy Thursday afternoon when the bombs rained from the sky onto the World Trade Center killing dozens and dozens of people?
Who could forget the missile slamming into the Capitol building (or was it the Treasury building or the Pentagon?) in Washington, DC?
Who could forget Andrew Card racing into that school room informing President Bush of the bombings....and Bush instantly leaping to his feet and barking orders?
Who could forget Ronald Reagan even with his Alzheimers riddled brain rushing to Ground Zero and stone by stone saving countless lives?
Who could forget Al Gore, Michael Moore, and John Kerry with soiled undies under their skirts, all running around screaming "It was Saddam! It was Saddam! We should bomb him back"
Who could forget Ted Kennedy mumbling something about health care and bourbon while the nation burned?
Who could forget that Iran probably had something to do with it also?
Who could ever forget 'Shock and Awe" and the quick end to the war?
Not me...that's who. And neither should you or those dozens that died will have died for nothing.

Uh-oh. Looks like nooprah has been sampling a little too much of the coconut-flavored hair gel.
I want some of what you're smoking!
I've been smoking...America! And don't you ever forget it.
Oh, I tried that once...but I didn't inhale.
The Bush Administration did it. Watch this video and you'll see it's true.
Watch it.
We aint watching your video....filled with lies and viruses.
I watched it and I have to say, Mel Gibson does a great Bush impression!!
Cool.
If we had phasers on 9/11 the Empire State Building never would have fallen.
So yeah...Star Trek is cool
From one of my coworkers, who flew home to Chicago yesterday:
"I got home from San Jose about five hours later than I expected to, thanks to the iPod-and-shampoo terrorists, so I'm just now getting down to work.
"True story: I sat next to this sodoku-playing, baseball-cap wearing doofus on the flight. The minute we land and start taxiing to the gate, he reaches into his carryon bag, pulls out a big bottle of Gatorade and starts hitting on it. When I asked him how he got that on the plane, given that they've posted signs on every flat surface in the airport saying "no liquids or gels can be carried on", the jerk didn't even know about the heightened alert. Why the hell he thought all the women were dumping hand lotion and makeup out of their purses, I can't imagine--some sort of Puritan cult fever?)"
But was it the British version of Gatorade?
Ooh, good question!
Names they discarded before selecting "Shock and Awe":
1) "Ennui and Dismay"
2) "Chagrin and Obliviousness"
3) "Oopsy and Daisy"
4) "Desi and Lucy"
5) "Bushzilla and MechaBushzilla"
6) "Cheney the Poo and Condi, Too!"
They were working on trying to retrofit the theme from "Green Acres" to be the campaign's theme song, but couldn't find anything to rhyme with "Times Square."

Oh, that sodoku-playing, baseball-cap wearing doofus!

Uh-oh, NoOprah's stuck in a loop or something.

Boy,
with such a "hot" news day (Israel rolling into Lebanon, the terrorists in Britain) and you're talking about an anniversary that isn't REALLY an anniversary?
I love "Hot News Days," as long as the events don't involve me personally (although I did know two people who died in the first plane that crashed into the World Trade Center-but I'll think about that at the ACTUAL anniversary.)
You wouldn't know it was a "hot news" day here at the office. McDonalds just edged out KFC in a lunchtime taste-off between two co-workers.
(Send help.)
>>>>>you're talking about an anniversary that isn't REALLY an anniversary<<<<<<<<
Of course it's the real annivesary. Everyone calls it 9/11 and assumes it happened on Sept. 11...they call it 9/11 because everyone dialed 9-1-1 at the same time...hence 9/11.
Though we did strike back on Sept 11th.
Wait...I figured it out. I need to be drunk to understand what you're talking about!
I'll be back in a couple of hours.
Whoo-hoo! Lois is not going to the gym again!
::dashes off to join her::
Cake,
I think that's a perfectly appropriate lunchtime activity-and I can see how McDonald's might edge out KFC...they've got chocolate milkshakes, afterall.
Yup, the desserts seem to be what gave it the edge. Two apple pies for a buck and all.
And DON'T watch the 9/11 (or 911) consipracy theory "documentary." REPEAT: DON'T WATCH IT. I did, and it was SO stupid I'm convinced that SpongeBob and Patrick wrote and directed it, with financial backing from Mr. Crabs.
I get it now. It sheems the terrorists have, um, ah....
::falls face down into a stick of butter::
Mmmm. Creamy.
Never minds. I'll just not go back to the gym now.
::hic::
Could someone grab Lois some coffee please? Before she doesn't go back to the gym again?
I feel so guilty when I don't not go to the gym.
Don't worry. I'm not really a drunk. I just play one on the Internet.
But I really am not going to the gym now.
-
Damn...now I'm all confused on what to do. Should I forget about not going to the gym or just not go at all?
Whew Lois,
You play one heck of an Academy Award winning drunk on the internet. You were so convincing that if I knew where you lived, I would've come to your house to join you!
Have fun not going to the gym.
And Dear Terrorists,
Please target the IRS building next time-
If you're going to blow something up, at least make it something that Americans might actually appreciate.
Just do it during lunch break.
Respectfully,
Momenger
