I just love things like that ! ( ‘ cept I have a tough time hearing that song ever since a barbershop quartet sang it at my aunt’s funeral 2 years ago and caused an emotional meltdown of the entire church. )
If you’ve not seen the “sand artist” video yet and you enjoyed the shadow video, you’ll like this. promise!
Strange thing. It’s 7am, I’m at the desk, no one else is home but I smell cigarettes. I don’t smoke. My son quit 6 months ago and when he did smoke it was never in the house. There are no windows open. Can’t figure it out ! ( it’s only the smell of burnt toast that’s a stroke warning , right ????? )
I saw this on http://www.breepalin about Sarah Pac’s expenditures. They did donate to several candidates nationally but the largest expenditure was…wait for it…Sarah’s book tour:
“It appears that SarahPAC paid out a large chunk of change to pay for the book tour.
“For the relevant time period, SarahPAC paid out:
$13,000 for bus wrap
$60,000 to NorthStar Strategies in Alexandria, Virginia, for logistics/advance
$27,280 for private jets
$6519 to Harper Collins for travel expenses
$25,930.25 total to Shealah Craighead for her traveling photographic services
That’s a total of $132,729.25 in just the most obvious large expenditures that went toward the book tour. A book tour to drive money straight in to Mrs. Palin’s pocket. “
New topic – I came across this article at EpiscopalCafe and thought I’d share it, especially since I’ve posted a couple of times about the overactivity of Evangelical Christians at the Air Force Academy: Air Force Academy & Earth Religions
Thank you for that film..and it is a lovely part of what..Family of Man..has meant..from the dawn of time..shadow play..that can turn dreams..into..Progress. The flicker of fire..and the resulting shadows..feed my soul..daily..fireplace, campfires or candles..shadows..may lead us..forward. As to the strange scent..yes there are post-nasel drips which have a particular scent..and I have rarely had sneezes which announce a bout of ‘congestion and bacterial growth/activity’ but have had some..whatever..lurking in upper passages. I always thought of it as a sour willow-wood scent. The eldest son..was particularly involved with that scent..throughout his childhood. Grew well accustomed to it..and cheered..its eventual departure.
Scott Brown is on This Week , being interviewed by Barbara Walters. I’ll tell ya – so far he hasn’t made me wince or need to throw something at the television. He doesn’t strike me as an extreme wingnut. The vibe I’m getting is that he’s a Conservative but a moderate. He speaks well. Seems measured and reflective. Doesn’t seem to be only spouting talking points. I don’t agree with him on a number of points but he’s not making me sick.
BuffaloGal @5
You might check your outlets, also, too. It doesn’t smell electric, does it? Littlebird overloaded a circuit when she was home recently. She wanted the ducktape (sic). Why? ….because the button on the powerstrip keeps kicking off…oy, vey, teachable moments. Be safe and well.
MonaLisa @10
Littlebird will enjoy this one, too. Beatles AND Juggling = an aura of childlike wonder. Enchanting. Thank you.
AKM, bless you for the Mudflats.
*much cheering and clapping and dancing, and a rousing global chorus of AMEN!*
So many sparkly, shiny gems to inspire and delight us. Also, too, lots of good, solid nutrition to strengthen us for what must be done. Knowledge is Power.
I wish you all a happy New Year of the Trees. Deep winter, now. Still winter. But the days are getting longer, and the trees are starting to wake up.
My tribe celebrates by planting trees, by feasting on fruits of many trees, by telling stories, and by feeding the Tree of Life with deeds of loving kindness for our planet and all the creatures here. (Waving to MoosePucky)
When I was just a littlebird, Grandmother taught me that we are ALL brothers and sisters under the sun and the moon. We feed the Tree of Life and the Tree of Life feeds us. What a wonderful symbiosis. Thank you, brothers and sisters, for Feeding the Tree of Life.
Behold how good and pleasant it is for brothers and sisters to dwell together in unity…
Ha !! I think Krugman and Arianna are going to going to slap the bejeesus out of Ailes. He’s pissing everyone off and is twisting facts and truth all willy nilly. He also got a bit agitated when Walters asked him about Palin. Major asshat !
Boudica @8 and ThatCrowWoman – not sure what that cigarette smell was but it continued for a few hours and then just – poof – was gone. TCW, I did check the outlets and felt all the walls for warmth but all was fine. Funny/scary story about the duct tape!
Also, ThatCrowWoman – thank you for your sharing about trees. I grew up living a few feet from Chief Sagoyewatha’s original burial spot. There is an old tree at the base of the burial hill and I spent time every day up in the branches , reading, thinking and talking to whomever might be hanging around in the ethers, including Chief Red Jacket. ( or maybe they were just in my head!) I feel I’m in spirit company whenever I’m with trees and to this day go on long walks in the spring so I can say hello as they wake up. ( yes folks – sharin’ a little bit of BuffaloGal crazy this morning !)
PantsonFire @6 – sounds like that could be an interesting book. I look forward to it !
I should have been clearer: the Armstrong version is the one that makes me teary eyed, but still say hi to your husband. (The cat was insisting on my attention, and I was distracted by her demand for food.)
I have noticed that Scott Brown is more than likely going to be classed as a RINO in a few months-he is way too moderate for them,they just seem to have missed that completely as they do with Mrs Paylin
Our family played this song at my Dad’s Memorial Service… Very touching and sentimental. He was retired Army, and then owned a landscaping biz in beautiful Monterey Bay area (CA). It was a perfect song, and over 100 people attended, friends he made over the years, whom we never met…
I also too enjoyed the shadow puppets and music in the YouTube video posted today; I “borrowed” it for my FB status for today.
As far as Scott Brown being classifed as a RINO in a few months, I doubt it. All of the Republicans seemed to be coerced or pressured or bought off in some way so that they just tow the party line and are sellouts to who they were when they came. They are totally a party of “NO!” and he will very soon be all but indistinguishable from any other Republican.
I still have hope that the people of MA will not tolerate a right wing republican. The republicans in office in MA are moderate. Romney was moderate and socially liberal when elected governor. Since this was a special election, I think Brown is up for re-election in 2012. If he is an obstructionist, right winger, he will likely serve only two years.
BuffaloGal and fawnskin…my second thought was teh ghosties, also, too. I’ve been lurking for many moons, but only started posting…so I hesitated to mention it, but by now it may be obvious that crowwoman shares your crazies.
Many times have I said, “I may be CRAZY, but I’m not STUPID.” 20 years teaching 6th graders, then a decade+ in secondary school libraries has taught me to keep my sarcasm filter fully charged. The “grownups” trip my filter more than the students, but my mama did teach me better than that. Don’t blame mama; mama tried.
I always feel better after a good cry, but it is NOTa pretty sight: bloodshot eyes, sniffles and hiccups and struggles to breathe, beak dripping, feathers ruffled…
Music is powerful medicine. What a wonderful world, indeed.
*wrapping wings around those who are suffering and wishing you peace*
CrowWoman – Glad you’ve come out of the lurking. I love hearing from those of us who share the crazy. We may be “out there” but we’re never boring !
Fawnskin and I had a really interesting chat about realms, intuitions, ghosties and messages. I think it might make for a good “theme chat” up in the treehouse one of these days.
‘Canerican – I caught your msg in chat but it looks like you took off already. Sorry to have missed you !
FYI – There’s a Wikipedia entry for “Wingnut” —
*** “Wingnut” (sometimes “wing-nut”) is used in United States politics as a political epithet referring to a person who holds extreme political views. According to Merriam-Webster, it is analogous with the word “radical.” In American politics, the term is more often aimed at members of the political right than those of the political left. The New York Times’ David M. Herszenhorn has defined a “wing nut” as “a loud darling of cable television and talk radio whose remarks are outrageous but often serious enough not to be dismissed entirely” ****
The word “wingnut” to me brings up an image of “spinning”. That’s the reason for the wings on the nut. The wings also provide the leverage for giving the nut a final torque at the end to keep it firmly in place.
I seems an apt description of teabaggers, also too. Ailes was so transparent on ABC when he stated “terror” is the number one concern of Americans. Fear is the “final torque” faux will use to keep the nuts in place.
BuffaloGal, you made me laugh with your last post. I remember when I found Mudflats first, I had to get used to the American political lingo. Pork and fungible commodities were completely alien to me, but I asked and people very kindly schooled me.
Just recently, I was excitedly telling my husband about some event that had happened in the US, (I hate it when his eyes glaze over), and I mentioned the wingnuts. He thought I was referring to a tool!
Buffalo Gal: Check your clothing. Smoke really soaks into fibers. It may be your wore whatever your wearing around a smoker. The smell lingered and when you put it on out of the blue, it was very noticeable. Then as you got used to it, it gradually faded.
I now I’ve had to wash my hair after being in a car with smokers as when I was in a “clean” environment (my house) I noticed my hair reeked of smoke. But I didn’t notice it before.

===========
lol…. actually, you were. And that’s another new word meaning for you.
from the Urban Dictionary
TOOL
1. One who lacks the mental capacity to know he is being used. A fool. A cretin. Characterized by low intelligence and/or self-steem.
4. Someone who is a complete idiot/ one who is used by other people, and usually dosen’t even realize it/ someone who can’t think for themselves/ an asshat.
So glad that you flew into a tree closer to the Flats.
You also seem clever and wise as one would expect from the Corvidae. I have a question for you to roll around like one of those shiny objects you are fond of:
When I was a youngbird, I was a hawk with my retina packed with cones. Diurnal, keen-eyed, hawkish, aggressive, sleek feathers in the sun, arrogant even.
Now that I’m older, I’m flying at night, more silent, ruffled feathers, nightwoods hunter, my retina is a place of pilgrimage for rods with nary a cone anymore; maybe still arrogant but rarely the public displays of arrogance in broad daylight anymore. Owlish, in fact.
It all started a few winters ago when a Great Horned Owl took to occupying the exact apex of the roof on my library every night. All winter long, you have never heard such hooting and challenging of the hooting challengers in the woods while I was trying to read my hawkish books.
I know this is a long, drawn out post to get to my short question…..but, in your experience and wisdom, do hawks just turn into owls?
LOL bigdayqueen. It means the same thing here in Ireland. We often refer to someone as a *tool.* It is not complimentary. I wasn’t sure whether Americans’s used this expression as well.
However, hubby literally thought I meant a tool for unscrewing nuts!
A good friend just came back from DC and she brought me a little gift she knew I would love: a small tin of “Sarah”s Embarrassmints”! On the lid is a picture of Scarah w/a bible in one hand and a rifle in the other. She bough it at a store called “America”: products for the patriotic soul (800) 92-STARS http://www.americastore.com
Did anyone else read Alaska Ear this morning, with the breathless mention of Mayor Sullivan and his staff “swooning” (I swear, that’s what it said) over a recent visit with Dubya? This is the same cretin who couldn’t spare 20 minutes for President Obama awhile back. If I were back in Aanchorage, I would throw a tomato at the doors of city hall. But then again, there ARE no ripe tomatos in Anchorage this time of year.
Most of what Sarah Palin says shows her indifference to the truth, and demonstrates how little interest she has in being a serious political figure. By constantly spouting nonsense, Palin displays her lack of respect for her dedicated followers and the American political process as a whole.
There are only two possible explanations for why a person could be as consistently wrong as Palin is. The first, she truly has no idea what she’s talking about. The second, she’s lying.
As far as wingnuts: a wingnut is a real nut like in nuts and bolts. It’s the one w/the little thingies on the sides designed to be tightened by hand rather than using a nutdriver.

BuffaloGal – In Scott Brown’s interview he said he believes Sarah Palin has the capacity to hold the office of the presidency. That’s enough for me to not trust his judgement. He also wants to make it more difficult for women to get abortions, start ‘anew’ rather than revise the current healthcare bill (throw out the baby w/the bath water) and no answer yet on ‘don’t ask don’t tell’ amongst other things. IMHO, it seems he is a pawn. First step, he’s likable and knows how to relate to people. I am trying to learn more about him too but honestly the more I learn, the less I like….he’s a good speaker but I fear he speaks from both sides of the mouth )o:
And pantsonfire @45 sending that link to my Dad – thanks!
Subject: Tell CBS: Don’t air anti-abortion Super Bowl ad
Dear Friend,
The broadcast networks that air the Super Bowl have historically rejected advocacy ads. Yet CBS, which is airing the Super Bowl this year, has accepted an anti-choice ad by the ultra-conservative group Focus on the Family.
Focus on the Family’s “celebrate life” (read: anti-choice) ad features Heisman Trophy-winning college football star Tim Tebow. And CBS approved this anti-choice ad, even though the network has repeatedly rejected advocacy ads in past years including a 2004 MoveOn.org ad that went after then-President Bush’s fiscal irresponsibility and an ad the same year from the United Church of Christ showing them welcoming a gay couple who had been turned away from another church. And they just rejected a comical ad from a gay dating site from this year’s lineup of ads.
So to recap: CBS wouldn’t allow a group to criticize Bush, wouldn’t let a religious group promote its own tolerance of LGBT families and considers a light-hearted dating ad out of bounds. But CBS is perfectly happy to allow Focus on the Family to promote its conservative social agenda.
Join me in calling on CBS to kill the Focus on the Family ad before the Super Bowl on February 7!
Her Pac is proving rather interesting. I am useless at financial stuff like Pacs and taxes, but it does seem from visiting the blogosphere…Granny Paylin is up to no good!
Michigander @48 – re: Scott Brown – I heard him a little differently on the Palin response. I think most Repub/Conservative are playing the ” don’t dis Palin” game right now or maybe he was playing the ” don’t knock anyone with an R next to their name because we can’t afford it ” game , but what I heard in response to , “Do you think Sarah Palin has a shot in 2012″ , was – ” yeah , sure , why not ? but there’s room for lots of great people from our party ” ( or something close to that ) He didn’t strike me as a rootin’ tootin’ fan. Struck me that he was just playing things safe.
And re: abortion – I thought he was pro-choice but was ideally in favor of a new middle ground. I can’t remember verbatim but I thought he said he’d like to see number of abortions go down in the US. Maybe he was manipulating words to hide a more extreme meaning but he seemed sincere to me. Then again , it was still early ! I’ll have to go back and watch again. And, thankfully – as Laurie said @31 – he’ll have shown his true colors by 2012 and they’ll vote him out if he’s extreme and obstructionist.
Irishgirl – I agree re: the PAC. something is askew and awry. I await the day that Rev. Muthee’s magic spell of protection wears off and hounds of hell come sniffing for her in earnest.
mlaiuppa – Nope – wasn’t around anyone that was smoking. I can’t stand the smell which is why I would ban my son to the outdoors , no matter the weather. Thank goodness it’s gone away tho!
And y’know, ( re: lovemydogs and CBS) I wouldn’t care if they aired the commercial if they weren’t so hypocritical. They said no to a pro gay commercial ( tho I haven’t seen the details yet ) and I’d bet anything they wouldn’t air a pro-choice. Makes me think they’ve been infiltrated by the extremists with an agenda.
I feel like I’ve been typing this post for a really long time. It’s still Sunday, right ?
“There are only two possible explanations for why a person could be as consistently wrong as Palin is. The first, she truly has no idea what she’s talking about. The second, she’s lying.”
————————————
In Palin’s case, the two explanations are not mutually exclusive. “Ignorant liar” covers both quite adequately.
Irishgirl@53 – Yay!!! I’ve been waiting for someone to get good info on that connection! I’m off to read the post now but I bet it has to do with the theory that RAM has been the Facebook ghostwriter.
and pantsonfire@54 – I was going to say the same thing that Lee323 said! Both!!
BuffaloGal I wish you lived closer.I belong to a paranormal site,,Ghosties,aliens ect.I had my son-in-law take pictures down in Tennessee some where no deaths occurred,I hoped. and some where we knew some had occurred.someone had told me that taking a picture,if a ghostie was around a white spot would appear on thew film.Guess what the only pictures with a white blob,no apparent reason for it, was where people had died.The rest had no white blobs..Take it with a grain of salt but that is what happened and showed up on film?????I think when we pass on if we are not pure enough to face God we come back until we are and that could take some time.Of course that lets palin out this time around because no way would she be ready to face our,her God at this time
BuffaloGal @34
MOONBAT! hahahahahaha…caw…Caw… CAW!!! I love me some See Also references.
bigdayqueen, that’s the way we fight ignorance and have fun doing it. We use a dictionary then play with words. Also, too, if that not succeeding, and having possession of fungible commodities including a spare shoe or pair of same, tomatoes, rotten eggs or such like… with the whole world watching…Ack! Caw! CAW!
somebody throw me a lifeline, please, I seem to be stuck and sinking in teh salad.
Ok – I have no idea if this is a good article or not because , I swear, I slipped in to toxic Palin overload after the first paragraph. It had nothing to do with the article but rather that I’ve been in the Palin zone for a good part of the day. I suddenly felt like I had chugged a 24 oz slurpy made of fry grease and old tuna.
We always knew that Granny Palin was her own worst enemy.
And a mere 24 hours after she had to disclose her SarahPAC info the connection to those infamous FaceBook Posts that never seem to sound like her in real like has been ‘ exposed ‘. And she did it herself.
You can only keep the LIE hidden for so long before they all catch up with you and you are exposed.
The details and verifiable proof was just posted on Palingates.
I wonder if some of those ‘ Speaking engagements ‘ start to get canceled as well too when they hear the News.
Do they want to pay someone a Fee that will go to some phony company she made up..? Wouldn’t that be like a Co-conspirator in the fraud.
Lee323, thank you for the lifeline! Feathers are feathers, friend from the ‘Flats, and those metaphorical feathers fly fine in dreams, yes?
I’m an omnivore, but teh word salad gives me heartburn and indigestion when consumed in any quantity. And once I start making salad…ickickick *shaking off teh salad scraps, straightening feathers*
…Do hawks just turn into owls?
What an Interesting Question. I have never thought about it, but I’m a curious creature, so let me see…*Synapses seeking, slowly searching*…
I’ve always been an earlybird, and it is fulldark now so let me sleep on it, Lee. I know many tales, so I’ll be sure to “look for some and get back to ‘ya” you betcha. I’ll post on an open thread.
Wishing you all a wonderful week ahead.
Good night and sweet dreams.
*tucking head under wing muttering littlebird…earlybird…nightowl…hawk…wolfmoon…moonbat…hushhushhush*
It has always been just a matter of time before the money trail caught up to Mrs. Palin. The term “follow the money” is a most prudent and steadfast one, and surely will be her undoing.
Great conversation and full transcript with Congresswoman Schultz about the specifics of how the House is going to hold the reconciliation bill in the House and force the Senate to pass the reconciled version.
And other things.
Very straight talk. Very little political BS.
BuffaloGal – if you are still here: COULD be the ghosties, yes. But, if I am in any way responsible for the smoke smell, I am deeply sorry. I think I made you a beaded necklace/eyeglass holder for the holiday swap.
I smoke. Were you wearing that necklace?
I wish to apologize for my earlier post, criticizing Mayor Sullivan and his staff. I realized after posting it that it was Gov. Parnell who shunned the President, not Mayor Sullivan. I regret my mistake, and perhaps next time will think a little more before posting. My apologies to everyone.
Don’t apologize, Mic. We all make mistakes and if we apologize for every little one then we’d have no time for other things.
Any Massachusetts readers following the school bullying situation out near Chicopee where a young Irish lass hung herself after experiencing months of torment from girls at South Hadley High School? Click on my name if you are interested in the story.
I won’t paste the link because I don’t need to give them any traffic but the Tea-Partiers have a press release out there…. as of now.
Until someone QUITS maybe.
———————–
“The Tea Party Nation announced tonight that it will host a live broadcast of the opening of the National Tea Party Convention, keynote speeches and Sarah Palin’s address.
In order to enable millions of Tea Party activists who could not be in attendance, the National Tea Party Convention is working with PJTV, FOX News, CNN and Reuters TV in a combined effort to bring this historic event to the grassroots.”
Tragic story which leaves one speechless at the callousness of bullies.
Peace and oceans of sympathy to Phoebe Wilson’s family….
—————————————
“Like a lot of kids her age, Phoebe Prince was a swan, always beautiful and sometimes awkward.
Last fall, she moved from Ireland into western Massachusetts, a new town, a new high school, a new country, a new culture. She was 15, when all that matters is being liked and wearing the right clothes and just fitting in.
She was a freshman and she had a brief fling with a senior, a football player, and for this she became the target of the Mean Girls, who decided then and there that Phoebe didn’t know her place and that Phoebe would pay.
Kids can be mean, but the Mean Girls took it to another level, according to students and parents. They followed Phoebe around, calling her a slut. When they wanted to be more specific, they called her an Irish slut.
The name-calling, the stalking, the intimidation was relentless.
Ten days ago, Phoebe was walking home from school when one of the Mean Girls drove by in a car. An insult and an energy drink can came flying out the car window in Phoebe’s direction.
Phoebe kept walking, past the abuse, past the can, past the white picket fence, into her house. Then she walked into a closet and hanged herself. Her 12-year-old sister found her.
You would think this would give the bullies who hounded Phoebe some pause. Instead, they went on Facebook and mocked her in death. (snip)
Last week, Phoebe was supposed to visit Ireland, where she grew up, and she was excited because she was going to see her father for the first time in months.
She did end up going back to Ireland after all, and when her father saw her she was in a casket.”
Thanks for the link Sauerkraut. Disgraceful behavior by these little cutie-pie upper income sociopaths. i looked at Phoebe’s picture for a very long time.
What a beautiful child she was.Today i hold her face in my mind and sympathy for her family in my heart. Sleep well and dream deeply little girl. You were too good for this world.
Funny, RAM as a sock puppet… here’s my response…
Just imagine this being sung by $P, perhaps, as her ‘talent’ in a beauty contest… the lyrics are spot on…

sauerkraut there should be something everyone can do about these types of mean girl and boy people..You seem to be doing the right thing getting the names out there so everyone knows what they are.
Lovely.
Sweet – thank you. But remind not to check out the other videos that come up after…. yeek.
very nice

Lots of lovely links this morning.

Boudica @8 and ThatCrowWoman – not sure what that cigarette smell was but it continued for a few hours and then just – poof – was gone. TCW, I did check the outlets and felt all the walls for warmth but all was fine. Funny/scary story about the duct tape!
Also, ThatCrowWoman – thank you for your sharing about trees. I grew up living a few feet from Chief Sagoyewatha’s original burial spot. There is an old tree at the base of the burial hill and I spent time every day up in the branches , reading, thinking and talking to whomever might be hanging around in the ethers, including Chief Red Jacket. ( or maybe they were just in my head!) I feel I’m in spirit company whenever I’m with trees and to this day go on long walks in the spring so I can say hello as they wake up. ( yes folks – sharin’ a little bit of BuffaloGal crazy this morning !)
PantsonFire @6 – sounds like that could be an interesting book. I look forward to it !
awwww
that version of “it’s a wonderful world” is our “love song”.
hubby is gonna get teary eyed when he views this.
buffalogirl@5:
we hafta chat.
you have that medium thing going on with the smoke smelling episode.
Fawnskin, that song makes me teary eyed, too. Say hi to your husband from me.
Fawnskin – it’s about 11:30 am EST – I’m going to jump up to the chat room for a bit. Stop by if you’re around. I’d like to hear more.
I should have been clearer: the Armstrong version is the one that makes me teary eyed, but still say hi to your husband. (The cat was insisting on my attention, and I was distracted by her demand for food.)
waving madly to nswfm
(and giving hubby a peck on the cheek from her, also and too)
oh, yoohoo, buffalogal
i’m over at chat
Waving back from me and the two happy cats who are lounging in the sun.
we are so darn lucky to be sharing that very sunshine, nswfm
I have noticed that Scott Brown is more than likely going to be classed as a RINO in a few months-he is way too moderate for them,they just seem to have missed that completely as they do with Mrs Paylin
Our family played this song at my Dad’s Memorial Service… Very touching and sentimental. He was retired Army, and then owned a landscaping biz in beautiful Monterey Bay area (CA). It was a perfect song, and over 100 people attended, friends he made over the years, whom we never met…
BuffaloGal and Fawnskin mudpuppy – I missed you in Chat. That’s what I get for starting the day off so late
Good Sunday morning to all.
Thanks, AKM, for the wonderful intro to the day.
I also too enjoyed the shadow puppets and music in the YouTube video posted today; I “borrowed” it for my FB status for today.
As far as Scott Brown being classifed as a RINO in a few months, I doubt it. All of the Republicans seemed to be coerced or pressured or bought off in some way so that they just tow the party line and are sellouts to who they were when they came. They are totally a party of “NO!” and he will very soon be all but indistinguishable from any other Republican.
I still have hope that the people of MA will not tolerate a right wing republican. The republicans in office in MA are moderate. Romney was moderate and socially liberal when elected governor. Since this was a special election, I think Brown is up for re-election in 2012. If he is an obstructionist, right winger, he will likely serve only two years.
May I add….and he knows it.
BuffaloGal and fawnskin…my second thought was teh ghosties, also, too. I’ve been lurking for many moons, but only started posting…so I hesitated to mention it, but by now it may be obvious that crowwoman shares your crazies.
Many times have I said, “I may be CRAZY, but I’m not STUPID.” 20 years teaching 6th graders, then a decade+ in secondary school libraries has taught me to keep my sarcasm filter fully charged. The “grownups” trip my filter more than the students, but my mama did teach me better than that. Don’t blame mama; mama tried.
I always feel better after a good cry, but it is NOTa pretty sight: bloodshot eyes, sniffles and hiccups and struggles to breathe, beak dripping, feathers ruffled…
Music is powerful medicine. What a wonderful world, indeed.
*wrapping wings around those who are suffering and wishing you peace*
CrowWoman – Glad you’ve come out of the lurking. I love hearing from those of us who share the crazy. We may be “out there” but we’re never boring !
Fawnskin and I had a really interesting chat about realms, intuitions, ghosties and messages. I think it might make for a good “theme chat” up in the treehouse one of these days.
‘Canerican – I caught your msg in chat but it looks like you took off already. Sorry to have missed you !
FYI – There’s a Wikipedia entry for “Wingnut” —
*** “Wingnut” (sometimes “wing-nut”) is used in United States politics as a political epithet referring to a person who holds extreme political views. According to Merriam-Webster, it is analogous with the word “radical.” In American politics, the term is more often aimed at members of the political right than those of the political left. The New York Times’ David M. Herszenhorn has defined a “wing nut” as “a loud darling of cable television and talk radio whose remarks are outrageous but often serious enough not to be dismissed entirely” ****
It goes on to say : SEE ALSO : Moonbat
hahahaha!
The word “wingnut” to me brings up an image of “spinning”. That’s the reason for the wings on the nut. The wings also provide the leverage for giving the nut a final torque at the end to keep it firmly in place.
I seems an apt description of teabaggers, also too. Ailes was so transparent on ABC when he stated “terror” is the number one concern of Americans. Fear is the “final torque” faux will use to keep the nuts in place.
BuffaloGal, you made me laugh with your last post. I remember when I found Mudflats first, I had to get used to the American political lingo. Pork and fungible commodities were completely alien to me, but I asked and people very kindly schooled me.
Just recently, I was excitedly telling my husband about some event that had happened in the US, (I hate it when his eyes glaze over), and I mentioned the wingnuts. He thought I was referring to a tool!
A fan from CA, I’m sure my husband was thinking along the same lines!
Pups,

Buffalo Gal: Check your clothing. Smoke really soaks into fibers. It may be your wore whatever your wearing around a smoker. The smell lingered and when you put it on out of the blue, it was very noticeable. Then as you got used to it, it gradually faded.
I now I’ve had to wash my hair after being in a car with smokers as when I was in a “clean” environment (my house) I noticed my hair reeked of smoke. But I didn’t notice it before.

lol…. actually, you were. And that’s another new word meaning for you.
from the Urban Dictionary
TOOL
1. One who lacks the mental capacity to know he is being used. A fool. A cretin. Characterized by low intelligence and/or self-steem.
4. Someone who is a complete idiot/ one who is used by other people, and usually dosen’t even realize it/ someone who can’t think for themselves/ an asshat.
Dear thatcrowwoman,
So glad that you flew into a tree closer to the Flats.
You also seem clever and wise as one would expect from the Corvidae. I have a question for you to roll around like one of those shiny objects you are fond of:
When I was a youngbird, I was a hawk with my retina packed with cones. Diurnal, keen-eyed, hawkish, aggressive, sleek feathers in the sun, arrogant even.
Now that I’m older, I’m flying at night, more silent, ruffled feathers, nightwoods hunter, my retina is a place of pilgrimage for rods with nary a cone anymore; maybe still arrogant but rarely the public displays of arrogance in broad daylight anymore. Owlish, in fact.
It all started a few winters ago when a Great Horned Owl took to occupying the exact apex of the roof on my library every night. All winter long, you have never heard such hooting and challenging of the hooting challengers in the woods while I was trying to read my hawkish books.
I know this is a long, drawn out post to get to my short question…..but, in your experience and wisdom, do hawks just turn into owls?
Sincerely…..
LOL bigdayqueen. It means the same thing here in Ireland. We often refer to someone as a *tool.* It is not complimentary. I wasn’t sure whether Americans’s used this expression as well.
However, hubby literally thought I meant a tool for unscrewing nuts!
A good friend just came back from DC and she brought me a little gift she knew I would love: a small tin of “Sarah”s Embarrassmints”! On the lid is a picture of Scarah w/a bible in one hand and a rifle in the other. She bough it at a store called “America”: products for the patriotic soul (800) 92-STARS http://www.americastore.com
Did anyone else read Alaska Ear this morning, with the breathless mention of Mayor Sullivan and his staff “swooning” (I swear, that’s what it said) over a recent visit with Dubya? This is the same cretin who couldn’t spare 20 minutes for President Obama awhile back. If I were back in Aanchorage, I would throw a tomato at the doors of city hall. But then again, there ARE no ripe tomatos in Anchorage this time of year.
Good read: http://www.huffingtonpost.com/chris-harris/sarah-palin-clueless-or-l_b_441823.html
Most of what Sarah Palin says shows her indifference to the truth, and demonstrates how little interest she has in being a serious political figure. By constantly spouting nonsense, Palin displays her lack of respect for her dedicated followers and the American political process as a whole.
There are only two possible explanations for why a person could be as consistently wrong as Palin is. The first, she truly has no idea what she’s talking about. The second, she’s lying.
You decide.
I am loving this thread, you all are great.
As far as wingnuts: a wingnut is a real nut like in nuts and bolts. It’s the one w/the little thingies on the sides designed to be tightened by hand rather than using a nutdriver.

You got any rotten eggs…..lol
BuffaloGal – In Scott Brown’s interview he said he believes Sarah Palin has the capacity to hold the office of the presidency. That’s enough for me to not trust his judgement. He also wants to make it more difficult for women to get abortions, start ‘anew’ rather than revise the current healthcare bill (throw out the baby w/the bath water) and no answer yet on ‘don’t ask don’t tell’ amongst other things. IMHO, it seems he is a pawn. First step, he’s likable and knows how to relate to people. I am trying to learn more about him too but honestly the more I learn, the less I like….he’s a good speaker but I fear he speaks from both sides of the mouth )o:
And pantsonfire @45 sending that link to my Dad – thanks!
Subject: Tell CBS: Don’t air anti-abortion Super Bowl ad
Dear Friend,
The broadcast networks that air the Super Bowl have historically rejected advocacy ads. Yet CBS, which is airing the Super Bowl this year, has accepted an anti-choice ad by the ultra-conservative group Focus on the Family.
Focus on the Family’s “celebrate life” (read: anti-choice) ad features Heisman Trophy-winning college football star Tim Tebow. And CBS approved this anti-choice ad, even though the network has repeatedly rejected advocacy ads in past years including a 2004 MoveOn.org ad that went after then-President Bush’s fiscal irresponsibility and an ad the same year from the United Church of Christ showing them welcoming a gay couple who had been turned away from another church. And they just rejected a comical ad from a gay dating site from this year’s lineup of ads.
So to recap: CBS wouldn’t allow a group to criticize Bush, wouldn’t let a religious group promote its own tolerance of LGBT families and considers a light-hearted dating ad out of bounds. But CBS is perfectly happy to allow Focus on the Family to promote its conservative social agenda.
Join me in calling on CBS to kill the Focus on the Family ad before the Super Bowl on February 7!

Her Pac is proving rather interesting. I am useless at financial stuff like Pacs and taxes, but it does seem from visiting the blogosphere…Granny Paylin is up to no good!
Looks like SarahPac paid the C4Per founder and RAM to write her facebook posts. See Palingates.
Michigander @48 – re: Scott Brown – I heard him a little differently on the Palin response. I think most Repub/Conservative are playing the ” don’t dis Palin” game right now or maybe he was playing the ” don’t knock anyone with an R next to their name because we can’t afford it ” game , but what I heard in response to , “Do you think Sarah Palin has a shot in 2012″ , was – ” yeah , sure , why not ? but there’s room for lots of great people from our party ” ( or something close to that ) He didn’t strike me as a rootin’ tootin’ fan. Struck me that he was just playing things safe.
And re: abortion – I thought he was pro-choice but was ideally in favor of a new middle ground. I can’t remember verbatim but I thought he said he’d like to see number of abortions go down in the US. Maybe he was manipulating words to hide a more extreme meaning but he seemed sincere to me. Then again , it was still early ! I’ll have to go back and watch again. And, thankfully – as Laurie said @31 – he’ll have shown his true colors by 2012 and they’ll vote him out if he’s extreme and obstructionist.
Irishgirl – I agree re: the PAC. something is askew and awry. I await the day that Rev. Muthee’s magic spell of protection wears off and hounds of hell come sniffing for her in earnest.
mlaiuppa – Nope – wasn’t around anyone that was smoking. I can’t stand the smell which is why I would ban my son to the outdoors , no matter the weather. Thank goodness it’s gone away tho!
And y’know, ( re: lovemydogs and CBS) I wouldn’t care if they aired the commercial if they weren’t so hypocritical. They said no to a pro gay commercial ( tho I haven’t seen the details yet ) and I’d bet anything they wouldn’t air a pro-choice. Makes me think they’ve been infiltrated by the extremists with an agenda.
I feel like I’ve been typing this post for a really long time. It’s still Sunday, right ?

“There are only two possible explanations for why a person could be as consistently wrong as Palin is. The first, she truly has no idea what she’s talking about. The second, she’s lying.”
————————————
In Palin’s case, the two explanations are not mutually exclusive. “Ignorant liar” covers both quite adequately.
Why is Granny Paylin paying RAM and Joseph Russo from her PAC? Enquiring minds want to know!
http://palingates.blogspot.com/2010/02/palingates-exclusive-sarahpac-paid.html
Irishgirl@53 – Yay!!! I’ve been waiting for someone to get good info on that connection! I’m off to read the post now but I bet it has to do with the theory that RAM has been the Facebook ghostwriter.
and pantsonfire@54 – I was going to say the same thing that Lee323 said! Both!!
Skippin’ off to Palingates….. tra-lah.
BuffaloGal I wish you lived closer.I belong to a paranormal site,,Ghosties,aliens ect.I had my son-in-law take pictures down in Tennessee some where no deaths occurred,I hoped. and some where we knew some had occurred.someone had told me that taking a picture,if a ghostie was around a white spot would appear on thew film.Guess what the only pictures with a white blob,no apparent reason for it, was where people had died.The rest had no white blobs..Take it with a grain of salt but that is what happened and showed up on film?????I think when we pass on if we are not pure enough to face God we come back until we are and that could take some time.Of course that lets palin out this time around because no way would she be ready to face our,her God at this time
BuffaloGal @34
MOONBAT! hahahahahaha…caw…Caw… CAW!!! I love me some See Also references.
bigdayqueen, that’s the way we fight ignorance and have fun doing it. We use a dictionary then play with words. Also, too, if that not succeeding, and having possession of fungible commodities including a spare shoe or pair of same, tomatoes, rotten eggs or such like… with the whole world watching…Ack! Caw! CAW!
somebody throw me a lifeline, please, I seem to be stuck and sinking in teh salad.
ackack ickickick
Ok – I have no idea if this is a good article or not because , I swear, I slipped in to toxic Palin overload after the first paragraph. It had nothing to do with the article but rather that I’ve been in the Palin zone for a good part of the day. I suddenly felt like I had chugged a 24 oz slurpy made of fry grease and old tuna.
I pass it along to those who care to read it : ” Palin’s shadow hangs over Alaska ethics debate” http://www.washingtonpost.com/wp-dyn/content/article/2010/01/31/AR2010013101090.html
Let me know if it’s worth reading tomorrow !
Jojobo1 @55 – is your paranormal group online ? I’d love to check it out .
We always knew that Granny Palin was her own worst enemy.
And a mere 24 hours after she had to disclose her SarahPAC info the connection to those infamous FaceBook Posts that never seem to sound like her in real like has been ‘ exposed ‘. And she did it herself.
You can only keep the LIE hidden for so long before they all catch up with you and you are exposed.
The details and verifiable proof was just posted on Palingates.
I wonder if some of those ‘ Speaking engagements ‘ start to get canceled as well too when they hear the News.
Do they want to pay someone a Fee that will go to some phony company she made up..? Wouldn’t that be like a Co-conspirator in the fraud.
Nite, you guys will be the death of me. Nite HIG, nite Johnboy, AKM, Granny grifter.
Lifeline thrown to thatcrowwoman.
Just so you know….I love your way with words……and would be interested to hear your tribe’s explanation of why a person changes as they grow older.
It happened just the way I related in comment # 41 (although my feathers are admittedly metaphorical.)
Lee323, thank you for the lifeline! Feathers are feathers, friend from the ‘Flats, and those metaphorical feathers fly fine in dreams, yes?
I’m an omnivore, but teh word salad gives me heartburn and indigestion when consumed in any quantity. And once I start making salad…ickickick *shaking off teh salad scraps, straightening feathers*
…Do hawks just turn into owls?
What an Interesting Question. I have never thought about it, but I’m a curious creature, so let me see…*Synapses seeking, slowly searching*…
I’ve always been an earlybird, and it is fulldark now so let me sleep on it, Lee. I know many tales, so I’ll be sure to “look for some and get back to ‘ya” you betcha. I’ll post on an open thread.
Wishing you all a wonderful week ahead.
Good night and sweet dreams.
*tucking head under wing muttering littlebird…earlybird…nightowl…hawk…wolfmoon…moonbat…hushhushhush*
It has always been just a matter of time before the money trail caught up to Mrs. Palin. The term “follow the money” is a most prudent and steadfast one, and surely will be her undoing.
Thank God.
Sh*t? Meet Fan!
Thanks, thatcrowwoman, Sleep well….

Great conversation and full transcript with Congresswoman Schultz about the specifics of how the House is going to hold the reconciliation bill in the House and force the Senate to pass the reconciled version.
And other things.
Very straight talk. Very little political BS.
BuffaloGal – if you are still here: COULD be the ghosties, yes. But, if I am in any way responsible for the smoke smell, I am deeply sorry. I think I made you a beaded necklace/eyeglass holder for the holiday swap.
I smoke. Were you wearing that necklace?
I wish to apologize for my earlier post, criticizing Mayor Sullivan and his staff. I realized after posting it that it was Gov. Parnell who shunned the President, not Mayor Sullivan. I regret my mistake, and perhaps next time will think a little more before posting. My apologies to everyone.
((((((((((((((((((((((((((((((((mag the mick))))))))))))))))))))))))))))
Don’t apologize, Mic. We all make mistakes and if we apologize for every little one then we’d have no time for other things.
Any Massachusetts readers following the school bullying situation out near Chicopee where a young Irish lass hung herself after experiencing months of torment from girls at South Hadley High School? Click on my name if you are interested in the story.

I won’t paste the link because I don’t need to give them any traffic but the Tea-Partiers have a press release out there…. as of now.
Until someone QUITS maybe.

“The Tea Party Nation announced tonight that it will host a live broadcast of the opening of the National Tea Party Convention, keynote speeches and Sarah Palin’s address.
In order to enable millions of Tea Party activists who could not be in attendance, the National Tea Party Convention is working with PJTV, FOX News, CNN and Reuters TV in a combined effort to bring this historic event to the grassroots.”

Tragic story which leaves one speechless at the callousness of bullies.
Peace and oceans of sympathy to Phoebe Wilson’s family….
—————————————
“Like a lot of kids her age, Phoebe Prince was a swan, always beautiful and sometimes awkward.
Last fall, she moved from Ireland into western Massachusetts, a new town, a new high school, a new country, a new culture. She was 15, when all that matters is being liked and wearing the right clothes and just fitting in.
She was a freshman and she had a brief fling with a senior, a football player, and for this she became the target of the Mean Girls, who decided then and there that Phoebe didn’t know her place and that Phoebe would pay.
Kids can be mean, but the Mean Girls took it to another level, according to students and parents. They followed Phoebe around, calling her a slut. When they wanted to be more specific, they called her an Irish slut.
The name-calling, the stalking, the intimidation was relentless.
Ten days ago, Phoebe was walking home from school when one of the Mean Girls drove by in a car. An insult and an energy drink can came flying out the car window in Phoebe’s direction.
Phoebe kept walking, past the abuse, past the can, past the white picket fence, into her house. Then she walked into a closet and hanged herself. Her 12-year-old sister found her.
You would think this would give the bullies who hounded Phoebe some pause. Instead, they went on Facebook and mocked her in death. (snip)
Last week, Phoebe was supposed to visit Ireland, where she grew up, and she was excited because she was going to see her father for the first time in months.
She did end up going back to Ireland after all, and when her father saw her she was in a casket.”

Not to worry Mayor Sullivan had to be shamed into going to see President Obama.
Thanks for the link Sauerkraut. Disgraceful behavior by these little cutie-pie upper income sociopaths. i looked at Phoebe’s picture for a very long time.
What a beautiful child she was.Today i hold her face in my mind and sympathy for her family in my heart. Sleep well and dream deeply little girl. You were too good for this world.
