5 days an no new comments? Has “the Dream” died?

Doug Deal July 23, 2009 at 2:50 pm

This is part of the TMC, sheppie. Dreams under that regieme die on the vine.

So “Dr.” Jay, do you have patience you should be looking after?

drjay July 23, 2009 at 3:33 pm

i’m mostly “supervising” today, so i’ve had free time–but when i disappear for stretches at a time i am “working”

Doug Deal July 23, 2009 at 3:44 pm

I.e., gassed on N2O. Gottcha.

Here’s another theme song. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=7B7bVD_DkM4

Whose do you think it is?

Jason Shepherd July 23, 2009 at 3:15 pm

we’re playing hangman again, Rome. Get with the program. Theme songs are so 2 weeks ago.

Romegaguy July 23, 2009 at 3:17 pm

Yeah hangman is sooooo modern

Jason Shepherd July 23, 2009 at 3:35 pm

Kellie, has that son of yours used his telescope yet?

Kellie July 23, 2009 at 3:49 pm

Yes. I wish we would have taken it to Florida with us last week. We had a great view. It would have been cool to have but my car was packed full.

“The New Format Sucks”

Kellie July 24, 2009 at 9:17 pm

I win, again!

Dash Riptide July 27, 2009 at 7:23 pm

Yay!

Icarus July 24, 2009 at 9:46 pm

I have been off the pundit for almost two days in a row. Hard to belive the place is still here, that the sun came up this morning, etc.

Kellie July 25, 2009 at 6:22 am

Ic, we really need help. The post are so bad we are hiding in the archives. ;-)

drjay July 25, 2009 at 7:34 am

you got it kellie—congrats

and hey checks to “jay melvin 09″ are great too ic!!!

Kellie July 25, 2009 at 3:19 pm

What did I win?

Icarus July 25, 2009 at 7:52 pm

The opportunity to write a check to “Jay Melvin ’09″. Do it now and avoid the rush.

Kellie July 26, 2009 at 8:19 am

I believe I need to send Shep a check first. Jay is running for city council so $5 should cover that. lol

Jason Shepherd July 27, 2009 at 12:36 am

Meanwhile, I need at least $30,000 before anyone will take me serious. :(

Doug Deal July 27, 2009 at 9:14 am

How much do you have now?

Kellie July 27, 2009 at 9:20 am

I just sent him a dollar in unmarked pennies. It cost me $6 to mail it but it is Untraceable. ;-)

Now I need dr.jay’s address. I will send him teeth to place under his pillow.

Doug Deal July 27, 2009 at 11:57 am

Kellie, I pledge to double that!

Jason Shepherd July 27, 2009 at 10:20 pm

Please tell me they were all old wheat pennies. You know a dollar’s worth of wheat pennies has more than $1 of copper!

Jason Shepherd July 27, 2009 at 10:22 pm

Oh, and so far, I’m up to about about $2,500-$3,000 in pledges, but I haven’t started dialing for dollars yet.

Kellie July 28, 2009 at 5:26 am

Sorry, All Canadian which is good since our money won’t be worth 2 cents soon.

Doug Deal July 28, 2009 at 7:36 am

If you are counting pledges, let me “pledge” the legal limit. Good luck collectinmg though :-)

Jason Shepherd July 28, 2009 at 11:24 pm

Two of my “associates,” Vinny and Sal, will will be right over to collect your contribution.

Romegaguy July 28, 2009 at 2:51 pm

I think my wife has some lemon scented pledge. Do you take that Shep?

Doug Deal July 28, 2009 at 4:28 pm

What about the plague?

Jason Shepherd July 28, 2009 at 11:24 pm

I already have a wife, Rome. Why do I need another?

Romegaguy July 28, 2009 at 5:29 pm

Seems Obama was born in the US after all… http://news.yahoo.com/s/ap/20090728/ap_on_re_us/us_obama_birth_certificate

How long before that court case dismissed

Let’s play a new game. I’m thinking of a number between 1 and 1 trillion.

Go!

rugby July 28, 2009 at 9:33 pm

69?

Dash Riptide July 28, 2009 at 9:36 pm

As overrated as a three ring circus. But I’m glad to know that fact just the same.

Kellie July 29, 2009 at 6:38 am

rugby – are you insulting Erick ,#69 on the coolest kids list?

Doug Deal July 28, 2009 at 9:33 pm

Dash Riptide July 28, 2009 at 9:34 pm

Oh. My. God.

What are the odds?

Doug Deal July 28, 2009 at 9:39 pm

By my estimate, at least one in a thousand.

Dash Riptide July 28, 2009 at 9:41 pm

I dunno. That seems a little high.

Doug Deal July 28, 2009 at 9:42 pm

I am using New math.

Dash Riptide July 28, 2009 at 9:45 pm

Ah.

drjay July 29, 2009 at 7:29 am

π

Jason Shepherd July 29, 2009 at 8:27 am

π r squared, but how often do you really see a squared pie?

Romegaguy July 29, 2009 at 8:44 am

sometimes the fried apple pies I get each fall at Panorama Orchards in Ellijay are square shaped

Dash Riptide July 29, 2009 at 8:48 am

Not since Amsterdam.

Doug Deal July 29, 2009 at 9:45 am

π r round, cornbread r square.

Jason Shepherd July 29, 2009 at 10:38 pm

Dash, how often are you in Amsterdam?

Dash Riptide July 30, 2009 at 6:27 am

Not as often as Erick’s crush, apparently.

drjay July 30, 2009 at 12:42 pm

hey–isn’t getting pretty close to time to start up fantasy football for 09?

Dash Riptide July 30, 2009 at 12:57 pm

I’d

Dash Riptide July 30, 2009 at 12:57 pm

think

Dash Riptide July 30, 2009 at 12:57 pm

so

Dash Riptide July 30, 2009 at 12:58 pm

but

Dash Riptide July 30, 2009 at 12:59 pm

but all I know is this thread is 500 posts strong.

Kellie July 30, 2009 at 1:18 pm

500??!!
How did that happen?
Hangman takes up a lot of space.

Icarus July 30, 2009 at 5:44 pm

Yes, was thinking about Fantasy Football among my other fantasies last week.

I need to send a few emails, but here’s what I’m thinking.

We are going to have at least one bracket that is a PP “invitational”. I want some electeds and/or candidates involved.

The “sign up here” open call method usually results in the brackets filling up within an hour, half of whom have never posted, and drop out after a week.

I’m thinking of a selective system for our brackets this year based on posting history.

Thoughts?

drjay July 30, 2009 at 7:52 pm

i am not particular who i defeat–y’all tricked me on draft day last year–which i assure you will not happen again…

rugby July 30, 2009 at 7:53 pm

Just rig the system so I can get in the top four or so without ever actually logging on.

Doug Deal July 30, 2009 at 8:01 pm

Invitational? This sounds like a trick to get “perenial runner-up” Doug Deal uninvited. Don’t be such a chicken.

Jason Shepherd July 30, 2009 at 10:13 pm

Doug, I thought you were boycotting PP because Icarus was rigging the system?

Doug Deal July 30, 2009 at 10:22 pm

I am. Thats what makes this so difficult.

Jason Shepherd July 31, 2009 at 10:19 am

What!? You’re rigging the system now?

Doug Deal July 31, 2009 at 11:17 am

I don’t rig the system, I AM the system.

rugby July 31, 2009 at 1:41 pm

So you’re the TMC?

Doug Deal July 31, 2009 at 1:58 pm

I am the UND, one step beyond the TMC.

Jason Shepherd July 31, 2009 at 4:42 pm

Dang Kellie! This is more than just one roll of pennies. All of this coinage is HEAVY! :)

Kellie July 31, 2009 at 5:34 pm

You’d be surprised how much money you can pull out of a fountain before security notices. ;-)

Jason Shepherd August 1, 2009 at 8:18 pm

I noticed a quarter or two was thrown in :P

Jason Shepherd August 1, 2009 at 8:19 pm

You’ve seen Goonies right? You know those were someone else’s wishes. Probably GOPeach’s.

Kellie August 2, 2009 at 5:17 am

You probably shouldn’t mention that name; it could start a riot.

Jason Shepherd August 2, 2009 at 7:10 pm

laugh riot?

Jason Shepherd August 2, 2009 at 7:10 pm

come on, this is the archives. We’re supposed to bring up old stuff from the past!

rugby August 2, 2009 at 7:19 pm

I’ve often felt the king’s power needs to be limited. John’s getting far too large for his pantaloons!

rugby August 2, 2009 at 7:20 pm

And can we bring up new stuff from the past?

Kellie August 2, 2009 at 7:29 pm

_ _ _ _ _ _ _ _

Jason Shepherd August 2, 2009 at 11:13 pm

I don’t see why not. We’re bringing up new stuff about GOPeach.

Bill Simon August 4, 2009 at 11:44 am

IN that case:

BTW…the Cobb County GOP has had success under Scott Johnson and Bob Koncerak like it never has before.

Romegaguy August 3, 2009 at 9:42 am

So if Andre no longer has front page posting rights, what will he do for money?

Icarus August 3, 2009 at 9:43 am

And since this is the archives, where is Decaturguy?

rugby August 3, 2009 at 10:03 am

He quit.

http://atlantapublicaffairs.blogspot.com/

Kellie August 3, 2009 at 9:48 am

And since Andre is gone, who will replace him?

Kellie August 4, 2009 at 6:43 pm

I’m going to hang out here in the archives for a while. Y’all let me know when something interesting happens. ;-)

Icarus August 4, 2009 at 6:47 pm

It may be a while.

Kellie August 4, 2009 at 6:54 pm

That’s ok. It’s nice and quiet here and the company is better. ;-)

Icarus August 4, 2009 at 7:00 pm

Well, it’s no Chuck-E-Cheese.

And it’s about to get quieter. I’m off to the gym.

Doug Deal August 4, 2009 at 7:57 pm

Yeah, the main site has hit the duldrums.

Icarus August 4, 2009 at 8:25 pm

yeah, I’m on it.

I’m writing a piece that calls Mother Theresa “History’s Second Greatest Monster”

Kellie August 4, 2009 at 8:48 pm

what’s that got to do with GA? ;-)

Jason Shepherd August 4, 2009 at 11:13 pm

or Toby Keith?

Icarus August 4, 2009 at 11:14 pm

It was mostly about her being the orginator of all social media, so it counts.

Doug Deal August 4, 2009 at 11:42 pm

Don’t forget about Ghandi.

Jason Shepherd August 5, 2009 at 3:39 pm

I thought Tipper Gore invented social media after Al Gore invented the internet.

Romegaguy August 4, 2009 at 8:45 pm

I always thought of her as the 69th Greatest Monster

Jason Shepherd August 4, 2009 at 11:15 pm

Maybe we will luck out and get a special session. That will add interesting new things. Or someone could start posting stuff about my house race. EVERYONE would be interested in tha…….zzzzzzz…… huh? Whata? Sorry, that topic even put me to sleep.

Yeah, I have nothing.

Kellie August 5, 2009 at 5:41 am

Lee Hawkins joined the 9th district race for Congress yesterday. No one seemed to care. zzzzzzzzzzzzzzzz………..

rugby August 5, 2009 at 8:05 am

That’s my position!

Jason Shepherd August 5, 2009 at 3:38 pm

Tommy cared.

Kellie August 5, 2009 at 7:17 pm

Well, why didn’t he pay us a visit to let us know?

Jason Shepherd August 5, 2009 at 7:22 pm

Don’t know. Last I talked to him all he was doing was washing his car.

Jason Shepherd August 6, 2009 at 3:46 pm

Hey, anyone know what’s happened to Dr. Jay? He’s been AWOL for a while now.

Icarus August 6, 2009 at 4:03 pm

He’s on an Alaskan cruise with about 4,000 of his relatives.

Jason Shepherd August 6, 2009 at 11:18 pm

I don’t get the joke.

Icarus August 6, 2009 at 11:26 pm

It’s hyperbole, not a joke.

You should Facebook for quality, not quantity. Mrs. J’s updates are priceless.

Jason Shepherd August 7, 2009 at 8:40 am

I only have 1300 friends. More than 875 of whom I actually know in real life. The rest are more more than one degree of separation.

Kellie August 7, 2009 at 8:53 am

Quality, Ic? I better check to see if I’m still on your list.

Jason Shepherd August 7, 2009 at 9:16 am

Kellie, a friends list isn’t quality if you’re not on it. :)

Kellie August 7, 2009 at 10:04 am

Thanks Jason ;-) Now, tell your 1300 friends that. ;-)

Jason Shepherd August 7, 2009 at 10:39 am

Okay, just did.

Kellie August 7, 2009 at 10:53 am

you so funny

Jason Shepherd August 7, 2009 at 10:58 am

Georgia Government needs more people with a sense of humor.

Kellie August 7, 2009 at 11:03 am

The electorate obviously has one, look at who we elect. lol

Jason Shepherd August 7, 2009 at 12:22 pm

Nah, they just wanted change. Mostly pocket change, but change nonetheless.

Doug Deal August 7, 2009 at 1:01 pm

JS, you didn’t follow the logic far enough. Obama promissed change, which is another word for flux. As you well know the Flux Capaciter activated at 88 MPH. 88 is in the 80′s and in 1980, Carter was President.

So, he promissed to bring Jimmie back, and he did.

Welcome back, Carter.

Dash Riptide August 7, 2009 at 1:07 pm

I loved that show.
