'Yo, Blair!' Overheard at G8

<p>et tu, xiggi?</p>

<p>Amicus certus in re incerta cernitur</p>

<p>Ro, I would like to see you coming out swinging in a more masculine manner, although it wasn’t my intent to bring that up…you broached that subject. You can look a man in the eye…through the television…and “see what’s there?” Go take another bike ride, and then a cold shower.</p>

<p>CGM, you know where I’m coming from as far as you’re concerned, and I don’t want to complicate it for you.</p>

<p>“xiggi, come on keep trying to bully me, I know the type”</p>

<p>CGM, have I really tried to bully you in this thread, or in the past 1,000 posts of yours? If it is OK with you, I’d like to be able to express my disagreement with you in a couple of threads.</p>

<p>Gimme your lunch money, CGM. Or else.</p>

<p>driver said words were given to much importance when it comes to politicians, and I disagree</p>

<p>Dont read my posts, its a free world, instead of telling me to cork it…you can ignore me, you can call names, you can tell me to go away, gosh, you can try and bully me away, whatever you like</p>

<p>It won’t make me shut up</p>

<p>i have never told anyone to not share opionions, and haven’t found many others on this site who do that unless it is racist, etc. but i find it interesting the only ones I have seen, and from reading many threads, not just the ones I am involved in, its the posters who have a bit of a non-progressive leaning who tell people to cork it, to be quiet, to go away…</p>

<p>interesting that</p>

<p>okay bully was not the best word to use, but see how words work!!!</p>

<p>wow imagine that</p>

<p>AND</p>

<p>what people say in unguarded, unscripted, unhandled moments are very telling</p>

<p>but maybe some pople like scripts for everything, and anything spoken of the script is not relevant, those real thoughts of the leader of the free world, eh</p>

<p>Yes, wow. Just wow. Words are so amazing. Wow.</p>

<p>driver, yes wow…come on what would your D do?</p>

<p>Mine would not ike it, I wouidn’t like and I would bet you Mrs. Bush wouldn’t like Putin giving her a good ole boy backrub</p>

<p>But don’t answe, that is okay…</p>

<p>I thought the cold shower was the antidote for excess maleness. In any case, you are being purposefully insulting. Shall I punch your husband in the nose?</p>

<p>Well done, again, ro! You are saving me from having to think.</p>

<p>I agree completely that Bush is a “poseur”. He is (as I posted once way back when) the schoolyard punk who acts macho because he has somehow convinced the school bully to do his dirty work for him, but he has no real power himself. It gives me the creeps to know that our political system fell for him.</p>

<p>driver - less mocking please. By the way, you ignored my post about Dubya and George III.</p>

<p>ro - Is driver a woman?</p>

<p>Ro, I’d be happy to return to a non-flowery discussion of W. </p>

<p>Leanid, I only ignored you because I was trying to avoid referring to hyenas, jackals, and remoras. Consider your latching-on noticed.</p>

<p>And yes, driver is a woman who would not mind a shoulder rub from W.</p>

<p>she’s a tall, curvy, delicious, feisty babe of a woman. a republican pin-up with better legs and sharper tongue than colter. she makes my muscles bulge and fill with the desire to run at enemies with a spear. and crumble flowers on their bloody corpses.</p>

<p>rorosen:</p>

<p>You do remember that Achilles was a heel, don’t you? But I can see Driver as Pallas Athene sprung forth fully armed from the brow of Zeus.</p>

<p>yes dear and my ancient brain also remembers how often women have been the cause of war,…</p>

<p>that ought to win me more friends</p>

<p>I remember being aghast when I learned that Driver was a woman too, Leanid.</p>

<p>aghast? She’s marvellous. Though we weak lilly-livered males always prefer a woman with balls,…</p>

<p>no, no. You’ve got it wrong. The pretext, not the cause, and the spoils of war. Helen was only a pretty face. The thousand ships were launched by Agamemnon and his ilk after he showed himself willing to sacrifice Iphigenia.</p>

<p>omg. Now I find out that RoRo is a manly man?</p>

<p>This has be all befuddled.</p>

<p>sharper tongue that colter!!!</p>

<p>now that is a standard I wouldn’t want to be associated with, a lying, plagerizing, mean spirited, ambulance chasing, public figure.</p>

<p>Let us see here, so driver, your hubby goes around and rubs the shoulders of people at his office, yes, and holds hands with a fellow whatever? Cause it seems it would be okay…but maybe I am misreading your intentions…you would take a back rub from W, and that his giving back rubs to women in a professional setting is just swell, so if your H walked around giving the lady in the next cubical a sweet little shoulder rub once in a while, it is just the most natural thing to do</p>

<p>And I am not talking about trust issues here, I am talking about respect, two different things</p>

<p>And don’t try and blow off the questions with well, he doesn’t work in an office…</p>

<p>Yeah, that is neat!! As I said my H knows to not walk around holding hands with ladies he works with, a pretty personal action, ask Samantha, with just anyone…</p>
