Bill Maher's back tonight! That'll cheer me up as I remove the fork.
What's Bush's fascination with clearing brush? What IS that? Do they not have someone else to do it there? Is it the only thing he understands how to do? Does he earn Mommy points if he clears the brush then clears his plate at dinner? I'm sorry, but it always sounds so pathetic.
Bill Maher! Whee!
Yey another show I don't get up here and am forced to watch online...
Still, Whee!
The phrase "President Bush" never fails to bother me.
Eli,
I know. I avoid typing it whenever possible. It makes my keyboard shudder.
And I only found 23 million things that bugged me. Don't tell me what I missed GL, I don't want to know.
Thank goodness for Bill Maher. We've been watching him for years and he's still a breath of fresh air.
