Cake, Ice Cream and Song!
11 02 2009Well, it’s Sarah Palin’s birthday today. And it seemed only right to acknowledge it somehow. The usual traditions are cake, ice cream and song. But since we can’t find any cake, and suspect it’s on its way to Western Alaska where the “Let Them Eat Cake” philosophy seems to be in full swing, we are left with ice cream and song.
Several noteable figures have been memorialized in ice cream, thanks to Ben & Jerry. There’s Cherry Garcia, and Stephen Colbert’s AmeriCone Dream…so we thought it would be fitting to come up with the perfect Sarah Palin ice cream flavor. Mudflatters, as we all know, are a creative and clever bunch, so the suggestions for our contest were numerous! I picked out more than 30 that had been posted in comments and emails, and added a few myself. If I have overlooked your brilliant suggestion, I apologize. But, I wanted to keep the field reasonably manageable.
So, vote for your five favorites below, and I’ll suggest it to Ben & Jerry. You just never know.
Now, for the song. The traditional Happy Birthday to You song is just so….well….plain. Mudflatter Secret Shopper for Hungry Kids, who must have been a lyricist in a past life, has teamed up with her hubby to offer the following birthday song. Everybody join in to the tune of “Another One Bites the Dust.”
*Another One Under the Bus (Updated)*
Many thanks to John Deacon and Queen!
Sarah walks haughtily down the street
With the Evangelical’s dough
Watch your back, don’t look at your feet
Cause the knife hilt’s starting to show
Are you ready, hey, are ready for this
Are you a member of the media elite
Out of the doorway the pitbull strikes
To the sound of the beat
Another one under the bus
Another one under the bus
And another one’s gone, and Talis is done,
Another one under the bus
Walt, I’m gonna get you too
Another one under the bus
How do think I’m gonna get Vuitton
Without the RNC
I took them for everything that they had
Katie, don’t you know it’s all about ME
You can muck it, you can duck the press
Or subpoenas when you feel the heat
Out the doorway the pitbull bites
To the sound of the beat
Another one under the bus
Another one under the bus
And another one’s gone like my brother Wooten (pronounce Woo-Tawn)
Another one under the bus
Mike, I’m gonna get you too
Another one under the bus
There are plenty of ways to kill a man
And make sure that he’s screwed
You can yank him, Bailey Frank him
You can send out Todd
You can fly with leaking fluid
But I’m ready, hey, yeah I’m ready for you
Cause my house and sports complex’s complete
Out of the doorway the pitbull strikes
To the sound of the beat
Another one under the bus

While I was reading “Wild wind with gusts topping 60 mph knocked out power and disrupted travel,” here on the East Coast I was wondering -how are our Aussie friends?
February 12th, 2009 at 9:39 AM
Apparently David Letterman wished silly Sarah Happy birthday last night -
“I’m not saying how old Sarah Palin is, but she can see fifty from her house”.
She will so hate that joke also’ hahahahahahahahaha

Interesting tidbit from the “literbox”:
Rumor out of the Wasilla, Alaska, area is that Sarah Palin’s future son-in-law, Levi Johnston, has knocked up another young lady.
No word yet on the reaction from Bristol Palin, who recently gave birth to Levi’s baby.
More to come.

Martha! IN a turkey cone! I was trying to find some way to tie in the turkey angle but it just didn’t seem appealing…the cone part is hilarious!
I thought about ARCTIC PLUNDER also…white chocolate with a swirl of raspberry in tribute to the wolves bleeding on the snow. Ewww..!

crystalwolf a.k.a. caligrl; bet GINO wants a DNA Test on the woman – something she’s not willingto do herself. After all she can’t have a bunch of Baby-mamas tring to get with her [future-soon-to-be-anyday now] son-in-law.
Too bad that internship on the North Shore fell thru….
maybe he’ll be finish w/ high School by the time the baby is birthed…
Hey, it’s just a rumor…

Ann, I’ll send my boxes to Victoria, thanks for the heads up.
Also, do people in AK have family or friends in the states do shopping for them and then ship? I don’t know if the savings on products costing less but with shipping would save or not.
I wondered if it would help your dollars go further (when things finally get back on track). Kinda like a long distance personal shopper, lol. Seems like anything that would fit in these flat rate boxes would be a good thing for us to buy for you.
When I look at your personal shopping list some things seem real out of wack……like Koolaid, canned veggies, spaghetti noodles, tp, cuppa noodles. We have warehouse type stores here called Aldi’s a no frills type store that have great prices.
We also have damaged goods stores, where a box of something like cereal has a crunched corner or a jar of something broke and got everything else in it’s shipping box messy. These damaged goods are refused at the store and returned to shipper who then sells them to a salvage distributors. Here in MO there are a lot of rural lower income families so these salvage outlets are all over.
We also have a grocery store that has a $1.00 dollar isle. Dollar stores are big too, lol, every item is a buck. It’s a good place to buy the cleaning stuff and some groceries.
I guess my point is I’d be happy to shop for someone if it would help. I can only spend so much of my own dollars on our budget, but I have time to donate, lol
Another thought…….have villages tried setting up a co-op purchasing directly from wholesale companies? Back in my hippy days we did this, it takes coordination and volunteers but it’s a neat concept. I wonder if something like that could work for maybe serveral villages in close in proximity.
One more question, well 2, lol, is pilot bread the same as soda crackers? and the tea, dried tea bags okay or bottled?
So I’m repacking my boxes and will send off at least 2 tomorrow from Missouri. The one I have with every spare inch completely stuffed weighs 19 lbs, lol……how are the post office guys handling this? Good sports about it? I’m havin a blast! I need to get more boxes from the po, I only grabbed 2 and shopped way bigger, lol.
HOW TO HELP……
Food Donations can be mailed to:
Pilot Point Food Drive
c/o Pilot Point Tribal Council
POB 449
Pilot Point, AK 99649
One of the quickest and easiest ways to help is to pick up a FREE flat rate priority mail box at the post office, fill it with items from the list below (remove extra packaging to fit more in the box), use Ziplock bags and other useful items as packing material and mail it to the address above.
Victoria’s list of suggestions…
We do not have babies under 1 y/o, at this time, and more elders in our villages so our ‘list’ is a little different.
Basics -
Flour
Sugar
Powdered milk
Powdered eggs
Toilet Paper is ALWAYS good
pasta- all kinds
dried fruit
canned fruit and veggies
Also we are low on meat, but do have fish – so anything of the canned meat is great – corned beef hash, Spam, etc.
beans
split peas
rice
brown sugar
crisco
bisquick/krustee
tomato paste
I think that is a good start.
Thank you ALL so much. It is hard when there is no store in either of our villages and the costs are so high to bring things in. The wait can be from a few days, for ‘local’ to 4-6 weeks, cheaper, for grocery orders to arrive. Families are hard pressed to guess and then stretch things to make it.
Thanks again,
Victoria

Bristol Bay Surprise? Would that be a dark chocolate ice cream (for the mine pollution from Pebble) with dead looking fudge fish and an orange sherbet swirl (for the copper)?
February 12th, 2009 at 1:52 PM
@ InJuneau
YES! And also, what kind of ingredients would indicate two Palin’s makin’ a third one? Snark! I know – but I’m still ticked at SP’s “101 Stories of How I Named Bristol”, and that was one of the reasons.
February 12th, 2009 at 2:07 PM
you guys have got to read this one…….juicy little tidbits……read the $25,000 PER MONTH!
http://www.nytimes.com/2008/10/22/us/politics/22mining.html?_r=1
“The Palin administration declined to investigate ethics concerns raised by a Republican lawmaker who says mining officials have tried to buy the loyalty of native leaders, not least by paying $25,000 per month to house workers in the homes of influential locals.
One of those houses is owned by Ethel and John Adcox, the parents of a close friend of Todd Palin, the governor’s husband. The Adcoxes say that the $25,000 vastly exceeds the typical rate for their modest guesthouse in the tiny village of Iliamna.
“We just feel privileged to live here when this money is being spent and villages are not dying,” said Ethel Adcox, a Yup’ik leader and distant relative of Mr. Palin.
Pebble is feeding her entire village — literally — with free steak and lobster dinners each Sunday, she said, adding, “It leaves a good taste in your mouth.”
February 12th, 2009 at 2:17 PM
OMG – here it is again, just like I said before…in your article link:
“I am a commercial fisherman; my daughter’s name is Bristol,” said Ms. Palin, then a candidate for governor. “

OT What a hoot! Did anyone see on CNN that over $1,000,000 has been donated to Planned Parenthood in SP’s name? I think they said over 46,000 donations! Sarah is pissed, and even admitted that some are doing the same with wildlife societies.
Re Emmonak and the whole Yukon-Kuskokwim Delta. This administration’s apparent disregard for life in the villages is so unlike the Alaska I knew. And when I hear some advocate that those who can’t make a living there move the the city, I know they have never experienced life in that region. What do they think would happen if the urban areas of AK suddenly were inundated with folks whose only experience with earning a living was that of fishing, hunting, trapping, etc. that has always previously sustained them? I think what I dislike about SP and all her cronies is that it makes a state that I have a deep love and appreciation for, seem like a bunch of ninnies, liars and incompetents.
Hey, we have them here In GA, too. What about that peanut man that knew his product was tainted, and now refuses to testify?

Bristol Palin goes “On The Record”
From the website, Moms For Sarah Palin
“Next week Greta Van Susteren will have The Palin Family “On The Record” including Bristol Palin on her new adventure of motherhood.
Greta has always stood up for women in politics saying that you don’t have to agree with their politics but there isn’t a reason to be mean. That said I would think that Greta will do a good interview with Sarah Palin and her family. I guess if you are respectful then you get the interviews, what an interesting concept in today’s world.
Should be an interesting interview. “On The Record” airs week nights on the Fox News channel @ 9pm central time.”
I expect that Tripp will make his debut appearance in front of the cameras when this is broadcast on Monday evening, 16th February 2009.
Happy Valentines to all and sloppy moose love to Brian.
