[Celerity]

difficult time.

1. LOL

[PJMcK]

2. I'm no fan of Todd Palin

But he has demonstrated some kind of wisdom: "Sarah is impossible to live with."

Thanks, McCain. Without you, we probably would never have heard of Barracuda Sarah.

[brooklynite]

6. Especially since she never (apparently) leaves to go to work

[ProfessorGAC]

47. She's Left For Work Before

Just not for very long!

[RhodeIslandOne]

13. I thought he suffered a brain injury in that snowmobile accident?

It's possible it smacked sense into him.

[Wounded Bear]

14. Snow machine! Get it right!

[Ilsa]

27. LOL. Where we live, a snow machine makes "snow" for

recreation, including tubing and skiing.

And the machines are used more and more every year, from what I understand.

[EveHammond13]

15. or perhaps when his own son gave him a beat-down

[PJMcK]

16. Some family values! (n/t)

[2naSalit]

3. 21st Century Addams Family...nt

[Aristus]

4. I thought they were Trigger, Tracker, Booger, Cooter, and NASCAR.

Hard to keep the names straight...

[kaotikross]

8. Outstanding

[AJT]

29. and Rudolph.

[geardaddy]

30. Love it!

[icnorth]

31. NASCAR was a do over...

Iditarod was too difficult to spell.

[lunatica]

32. So they changed it to idiotrod

[onethatcares]

35. tic tac/paddy whack

[alterfurz]

46. aka Derrick, Boom, Platform, Wellhead & Drillbit

[Farmer-Rick]

5. Hay don't laugh

The boy who is charged with domestic violence was named after the Palin's love of track and field.

He could of been named Field instead.

[PJMcK]

18. Okay, you started this!

Wasn't one of the Palin daughters known as Pole Vaulter?

Didn't Sarah call Todd Shot Put? Or did she call him Sprint?

To graduate college, didn't Sarah get the nickname High Hurdles?

Didn't one of the daughters call her boyfriend The Javelin?


Okay. I'll stop there. Feel free to continue without me.

[Funtatlaguy]

7. Algebra 2.....hilarious.

[rurallib]

9. the thought of either one in algebra is amusing by itself.

[delisen]

10. What about Apple, Moon Unit, Blue Ivy, River,

Arrow-all name of actors or babies born to celebrity types.

I prefer the Palin names to all the "Bible-names" my classmates were stuck with growing up in the northeast.

John, Joseph, Peter, Paul, Mary-it was all very boring and very conformist.

[cwydro]

17. Don't forget North West!

[kskiska]

21. Also, Chicago, Saint, & Psalm.

[delisen]

23. Oh Yes-that stands out in a crowd!

[FuzzyRabbit]

24. I've always liked biblical names

like John, Paul, George and Ringo.

[Skittles]

43. ...

[Oppaloopa]

25. I grew up in the Northeast an my son's name is also biblical but non boring Javan.

[delisen]

37. In ike that one-Javan!

[nolabear]

28. The only difference is the language. Hell, my actual name means "Rabbit Snare." LOL!!

[delisen]

39. mmmm,,,,

[Aristus]

38. Those I can deal with.

It's all the Elis and Micahs and Silases that drive me crazy.

[Hekate]

44. You forgot Moon Unit's sibling Dweezil

Mom & Dad were smoking the good stuff

[Zambero]

45. Indeed they were going to go with that one

but sadly to their dismay discovered that it had already been Zappa-ed up. I understand they had Suzy Creamcheese cued up at one point!

[KY_EnviroGuy]

11. Ice cold tots and pears to Alaska for the loss of their hero family.

Crude oil in the water there, perhaps?

KY............

[trof]

12. LOL. Really.

[deurbano]

19. Rich Lowry must be "sitting up a little straighter" with this development! His "starburst" machine

is single!

"I’m sure I’m not the only male in America who, when Palin dropped her first wink, sat up a little straighter on the couch and said, “Hey, I think she just winked at me.” And her smile. By the end, when she clearly knew she was doing well, it was so sparkling it was almost mesmerizing. It sent little starbursts through the screen and ricocheting around the living rooms of America. This is a quality that can’t be learned; it’s either something you have or you don’t, and man, she’s got it."

[RhodeIslandOne]

20. Yeah, web cam girls are good at that shit too.

[Bob Loblaw]

36. I always felt Lowry's career nosedived after that piece of drivel

Pathetic

[Fritz Walter]

22. Poster family for Planned Parenthood

As in “this can happen to you...”

[lunatica]

33. Also known as Todd and Sara's collateral damage.

[roamer65]

26. I'm surprised she didn't name one Glen and another Rice.

[The Liberal Lion]

34. Too funny

[yortsed snacilbuper]

40. Do they have middle names?

[akraven]

41. Yeah, but they're all the same.

Pistol Whip.

[Blue Owl]

42. Wait -- where's Trink?

n/t

[Initech]

48. Algebra 2!!!!
