Letterman is my hero.

You really CAN'T see her hives on standard definition. I'm telling you, they were gross.

(And good to see we're now #1 on Google for "Sarah Palin Hives")

said Scaramouch on October 4, 2008 11:25 PM.

Anyone else feel like watching Top Gun after seeing Palin talk about Maverick over and over?
If he's Maverick, does that make her Goose? Or Kelly Preston?

said sarcastic one on October 4, 2008 11:42 PM.

S.O. You make an excellent point, I'm thinking Top Gun 2 Brokeback Squadron:

'Maverick, you can be my wingman anytime.' Now I know what this maverick talk is about...

said E on October 5, 2008 12:17 AM.

I think it was Kelly McGillis (or something) btw.

said E on October 5, 2008 12:31 AM.

Yes, it was McGillis. If it had been Kelly Preston I would have watched it about 500 times more.

Here's a note to all the ladies living in fear of what might happen to your reproductive rights, especially if Roe vs. Wade is overturned by Palin - should she get elected.

Ugh!

I hope that all of you are currently using at least some form of birth control.
Well, sometimes your primary method fails or gets compromised.
If you take antibiotics for example, the pill becomes temporarily less effective.
Condoms sometimes break.

Now is the time to visit your local clinic or get your doctor to write you a prescription and start stocking up on Plan B.
Every female should have a dose or two just in case of emergencies.
No one likes to think about being a potential rape victim, and yet it happens every single day to some unfortunate person.
At least with Plan B in your medicine chest, you have a last-minute opportunity to gain control of an unwanted situation.

Don't all hate me...I'm just suggesting some practical solutions instead of merely complaining about it. I don't have all of the answers.
But let's face it, our rights have been eroded away for the past 8 years.
Did you ever think you would pay more for your house than it is worth?
Did you think gas and food prices would be as high as they are?
Is everyone you know getting laid off?

Time to face facts and take care of yourself.
Because no one else will.

As far as Mavericks go, the only True Maverick out there that comes to my mind is Ralph Nader.

He has been bucking the system for decades trying to advocate for consumer rights.

Where would we be without him?

said Laura on October 5, 2008 1:54 AM.

Sorry....Preston was in the memorable beginning scenes from Jerry McGuire....(the "don't ever stop......")
major faux pas on my part...

said sarcastic one on October 5, 2008 10:55 AM.

Heres a couple of my favorites from bush. watch and enjoy!

amazing how with a little editing, the truth comes out.

said Sheriff Pablo on October 5, 2008 11:25 AM.

Sarcky - There was a pretty memorable scene in Mischief as well.

I remember when Secret Admirer came out. We used to turn off the sound, put on some tunes, grab some beers and watch Kelly Preston and Lori Loughlin prance around. We'd argue (not really) about which was hotter. It was senior year at college, I guess we didn't have time for real women.

said Tim on October 5, 2008 11:54 AM.

I wasn't even going to vote for either candidate as I was disgusted with both of them ...that is, until Sarah Palin entered the ring.

Did anyone watch Inside Edition on Friday?
(I tried to link to their site, but the video is not available and the text has since been changed slightly not to reflect what was actually broadcast the other day.)

This might seem petty, but you this got my attention as I feel it reveals much about how a person is raised - or in this case, not raised. Inside Edition did a behind-the-scenes segment which showed the tiny offices which served as family rooms for the Biden family and the Palin family. Well, the reporter pointed out how Palin's family left behind a soiled diaper on top of someone's desk on the plate, amidst the crayon doodles, diet Dr. Pepper cans, etc.

I ask why did they not dispose of a dirty diaper in the restroom (Best choice! Where they could have washed their hands afterward?) Why not at least dispose of it in the trash can located in the room? It's like watching a chef not washing his hands before exiting the restroom and preparing your meal.
Just basic universal hygienic practices is all that I'm pointing out. UGH!

A pig is an animal that eats in the same general area where is disposes of its waste product.

Well, you can put lipstick on a pig...


said Dave's World on October 5, 2008 5:03 PM.

Laura, I'm commenting on your blue comment...it's wise advice, but I think even wiser advice than stocking up on prescriptions that will one day expire is to look at what a candidate says...if they are at the gubernatorial or presidential level and are pro-life, that is their right.
However, as a female, if you feel that all women should have a choice (and the same range of choices that a male would have if he was the one who could birth a child), then make your voice heard at the polls.
Anyone who has the ability to appoint judges or approve their appointment has influence on whether Roe v. Wade will be overturned or twisted til it doesn't mean anything.

If you are pro life, then don't waste it protesting clinics, bombing clinics or threatening docs who work there (some people actually use Planned Parenthood, etc as places to get the above mentioned birth control because they don't have insurance and it's more affordable). Instead, mentor young girls who have crappy home lives so that they have higher self esteem and don't sleep with any boy who pays attention to them at the age of 14. Convince girls who get pregnant to give the child up for adoption to couples who can't have their own....etc....

said sarcastic one on October 5, 2008 5:43 PM.

Uh..ok..label me with terms like "blue" if it makes you feel better.

I'm just saying stock up now so you can use these pills AVAILABLE NOW because they may or may not be taken away. Keep these pills on hand things just in case of emergency as they may not be so readily available in the near future.

Of course we should keep up the good fight for women's reproductive rights.
My plan was a quick fix in what could be done when faced with a transitional shift of government.

You can urge people to vote next month, but here is an option TODAY of what to do if you, your sister or daughter, aunt, etc. is attacked. She may not have the time to wait until next month's election results.


said Dave's World on October 5, 2008 6:01 PM.

Is there a limited shelf life on Plan B pills? Yes, just like with any other drug.

Will it suck if you have to pay for your own rape kit? Yes, but at least you can minimize the unwanted pregnancy risk with Plan B....for at least the next year or two if you stock up now.

No, Plan B doesn't protect you against AIDS, herpes, etc.
It helps you not to make a baby in cases of rape or incest or I'm just not ready to have a baby right now in my life as my husband just got laid off.

If you take steps now, you will have it when you need it.
Hopefully most of you will never have to use them.
But if you are delayed in traffic, stand in line, wait at the dr's office, go to another clinic or pharmacy as this one is out, etc. NOW, then you won't be delayed during the critical 24 hours after exposure.

Plus you can share if you had to with your girlfriend or sister sobbing in the corner who is forced to make difficult decisions under stress.


said Dave's World on October 5, 2008 6:19 PM.

Laura - A 'blue' comment is one that is made by someone not yet registered because it shows up highlighted in blue in some browsers. In mine, and perhaps yours as well, it shows up highlighted in grey. Comments made by registered users show up highlighted in pinkish color.

S.O. was merely trying to designate which of your two comments she was replying to ...

said Tim on October 5, 2008 6:26 PM.

It always amazes me to hear people talk about the possibility of Roe Vs Wade getting overturned. It will NEVER be overturned; no matter the makeup of the Supreme Court.

The public outcry that this would cause would be like we have never seen. No administration would have the guts to even attempt it.

said Tim on October 5, 2008 6:40 PM.

Or perhaps, Tim, if it were overturned then the right wing would no longer be able to sway entire elections based on only one issue.

Sorry, I didn't understand the "blue" thing.

I'm actually a plaid person (a la Johnny Rotten!)
HA HA HA!

You are cool, Tim.
I like you!

said Dave's World on October 5, 2008 6:59 PM.

We appear to be of the same era. We may not agree on everything, or express ourselves in the same manner, but I respect your right to say as you please.

Don't like me too much, I'm sure that I'll bend your feathers once or twice given enough time!

Hang in there.

said Tim on October 5, 2008 7:18 PM.

Dear Tim,

I want to Maverick you!

said Dave's World on October 5, 2008 7:38 PM.

I see what you did there. Very clever.

said Tim on October 5, 2008 7:48 PM.

Laura--down girl.
Tim is a married man.

said sarcastic one on October 5, 2008 8:49 PM.

Tim, thanks for the explanation (I use firefox and thought it looked blue and pink to everyone)...
and you are right--it will never be overturned...but the states have a lot of say in the matter and some of them have made it harder and harder to have access (some states have only a handful of clinics, others have put so much red tape in place that it is not what I would consider accessible, etc). So for the portion of the population that is not able to drive or fly to clinics halfway across the state or in another state, it might as well not be available.

It's amazing that even when I'm agreeing with Laura she thinks I'm fighting with her...geez. There are different conversations from post to post--I can not agree with you on one but have your back on another...I'm kind of open minded like that...

said sarcastic one on October 5, 2008 9:00 PM.

I guess I'm just used to always bucking the system...you know, like a Maverick!

said Dave's World on October 5, 2008 9:23 PM.

I imagine you'd have to be with your radical thoughts.

:: kidding ::

said Tim on October 5, 2008 9:24 PM.

Laura,

I just checked with the wife. She's not into it.

Echowood might be available soon. He's quite the male specimen, but he's delicate ... you'll have to go slow and easy with him.

said Tim on October 5, 2008 9:28 PM.

Laura - "like a Maverick!"

Are you still substituting words?

said Tim on October 5, 2008 9:32 PM.

Yes, because Madonna threatened to sue if I used, "Like a Virgin".

MAVERICK!

Tag, you're it!

said Dave's World on October 5, 2008 9:47 PM.

Welcome aboard laura.

Seems you'll fit in nicely here.

said Baierman on October 5, 2008 10:45 PM.

Thank you so much, Baierman!

My Profile is now complete!

Maverick to my fans!

said Dave's World on October 5, 2008 11:15 PM.

Wow Laura. Props on the icon. It made me not hungry anymore.
