This is the OMG! I AM FREAKING OUT website.

Freaking out over Bush, freaking out over any Republicans, freaking out over John Edwards and illegitimate kids--- I mean, shit. When isn't this place going crazy?

[Junkdrawer]

[MadrasT]

[Tandalayo_Scheisskopf]

8. I have the right medication...

At the right dose, and a terminally cynical nature to protect me like The Gardol Shield.

Nice to see your happy ass around here, Bubbaman. Damn nice.

[WilliamPitt]

29. Hey, we all go through that sort of thing.

Life is change. Perhaps you are going through a stylistic change, a change of focus, a change of insight or just changing your underwear. Slowly. Very slowly. Sometimes that muse just takes a long vacation. Who knows? I sure don't.

That said, seeing your byline around here? Well, it makes me smile. The universe is just a bit righter when you are posting here.

And now, I will just STFU. ;-)

[WilliamPitt]

12. I don't have time for this shit. My son is proposing to his girlfriend this weekend.

Just knock it off, okay? We're BOOKED.

:rofl:

[Mnemosyne]

23. Hope his intended doesn't read DU, Beth!

:hi::hug:

And tell him great luck! :applause:

[EFerrari]

24. It's safe or I would have used the code.

"The flower blooms on Sunday, brunch is in the house."

:rofl:

[Mnemosyne]

43. You will let us know her answer, pretty please!

:rofl:

[Tandalayo_Scheisskopf]

30. What's he proposing?

This is a very important question, you know. Sometimes, proposing the wrong thing, like something that involves cold cream, rubber gloves and pipe wrenches can go very wrong.

[EFerrari]

31. If it involves live animals, they're on their own.

:)

[spanone]

21. Bush reminds me of the Martin Sheen character in "Dead Zone"

A psycho pol who would have pushed the nuclear button if elected prez. I wouldn't put it past this idiot-in-chief.

[AlCzervik]

19. i just got and saw the headline about Bill Gwatney, just fucking shocking.

[Firespirit]

34. And right after the TN shooting. It isn't safe to be a southern liberal

Rethug bastards destroyed Roger Shuler in Alabama. One of them shot up a liberal church in Tennessee. Now another one has murdered the party chairman in Arkansas.

In all the outrage over it, people are losing sight of one thing: These evil things are done in the SOUTH, against Southern liberals.

It makes me want to strip the stickers off my car. Hell, it makes me want to MOVE. Or get a gun. I don't know. Just sick. :cry:

[FrenchieCat]

22. Write, people, write!

Don't just get frustrated or mad............voice your opinion to those who need to hear it, not just the choir!

Helpful and easy way to do this here:

Blow up your teevee and eat a lot of peaches.

"The Tapping Cure is an astoundingly easy and somewhat mystifying process that offers great results in the treatment of a variety of psychological problems. It takes only a few minutes, requires no medication and no talk therapy, and can completely erase a full range of negative emotions—from phobia, to trauma, to performance anxiety—in just a single session. In The Tapping Cure Dr. Temes, a seasoned psychotherapist, teaches readers how to tap themselves to eradicate their own symptoms. It is the first book of its kind to give precise instructions on where the tapping should occur—e.g., on the collarbone, under the eye, on the pinky—without resorting to mystical explanations, unscientific paradigms, and complicated pseudo-psychoanalytic rationalizations. The Tapping Cure is sure to help a great many people—psychological sufferers, the worried-well, and therapists with increasing numbers of patients requesting the treatment, which is fast becoming known in mainstream circles just like other once fringe therapies before it.

Seasoned psychotherapist Roberta Temes teaches you how and where to tap in order to eradicate your symptoms. Requiring no medication and no talk therapy, tapping is easy to learn and implement. In just a few minutes, you can:

Revolution

You say you want a revolution
Well, you know
We all want to change the world
You tell me that it's evolution
Well, you know
We all want to change the world
But when you talk about destruction
Don't you know that you can count me out
Don't you know it's gonna be all right
all right, all right

You say you got a real solution
Well, you know
We'd all love to see the plan
You ask me for a contribution
Well, you know
We're doing what we can
But when you want money
for people with minds that hate
All I can tell is brother you have to wait
Don't you know it's gonna be all right
all right, all right
Ah

ah, ah, ah, ah, ah...

You say you'll change the constitution
Well, you know
We all want to change your head
You tell me it's the institution
Well, you know
You better free you mind instead
But if you go carrying pictures of chairman Mao
You ain't going to make it with anyone anyhow
Don't you know it's gonna be all right
all right, all right
all right, all right, all right
all right, all right, all right
