No, they would have beat the habit on rocks to get ’em clean, back in the day, smacking them with yardsticks for good measure.
(One of the most finely composed sentences I think I’ve ever posted on the blog. Nothing like being too tired to think - makes one very creative. Or makes one think she’s being very creative.) :)
Yep. Never had a nun hit me with anything in the 13 years counting K that I attended Catholic school … but in 8th grade, our 80-year-old nun said she didn’t want to hear anyone talking, I forgot, talked, she called me up to her desk, slapped me across the face, and when it didn’t hurt AT ALL, I almost laughed. But somehow I got control of myself! #GoodTimesBackLastCentury
NO! You are NOT furst, you will never be furst, I AM THE ONLY ONE WHO CAN BE FIRST FROM NOW ON, BECAUSE I HAVE BEEN BLESSED IN MY CRUSADE BY THE POPE. Got that?? Just don’t forget it. KimmyDaDoDeDo.
Well, MP here, no, I pleaded not to be #eversotiredofunohoo, so at least HF loves me enough to spare me that. I admit I was taken aback for about 2 minutes, but once I realized KD is ‘all about me’, it was easy!! Besides, {history lesson}, HF is the one who dubbed me MightyPamela, and then my life changed. A whole lot!! > MP
You couldn’t pay me enough to come in that show! Besides, I’m working on my book, and really have no time for such nonsense. Gonna be v.e.r.y.v.e.r.y.v.e.r.y Rich. Soon. Yeah.
All budding political authors come on my show - the way to fame and fortune is via the Andrea Mitchell show - you need to freshen up that dowdy look to win my rwnj viewers
Charles Koch here. I applaud your matronly, dowdy, unappetizing outfits! They could only be improved by the addition of a facial scarf, something in a dreary color.
Now we want to see the ‘later’ picture of baby pope, with candy drool on the white outfit, kicking and screaming, batting at the hat-thing. A miracle of calm…. for the moment. :)
Chips - Thanks for this post! Was just asking a friend if she’d seen the baby in the popemobile and was coming here to find the photo to send her! How convenient, darlin’! :)
Charles Koch here, paging my boy Marky Ruby. We need to talk. You’ve been instructed to clear up these old issues, by scrubbing them off the internet and eliminating witnesses. But you have failed at this simple task. Look what’s on BBC today:
‘ … there’s a litany of questionable actions in Mr Rubio’s past - such as failing to report a home equity loan from a political supporter, double-billing the state and the Republican Party for travel expenses and using political funds to pay for seemingly personal expenses like car repairs and groceries.
Mr Rubio also was a friend and real-estate partner with David Rivera, a Florida politician and former congressman, who has been fined more than $16,000 [£10,500] for government ethics violations and is still under federal investigation for relating criminal acts. ‘ http://www.bbc.com/news/world-us-canada-34683766
Now, Marky son, you and I and the whole world knows that you’re a very free-market guy, and what they call mistakes or fraud, we call savvy business practice. But we need to put a lid on this mess. As you know, you’re not the only candidate in the pool. Harrumph! :)
Rubio here, sorry I haven’t responded sooner to your questions but I spent time with the family last night. You know how important family time is for us. I have people working on cleaning up this whole meaningless mess. These people are all grasping at straws. We have our agenda and we will not fail. I am still your boy. No one can follow you as well as me. See you soon, Mr Koch.

Good Halloween evening to you, oh mentor, HF2. Thanks for hosting the Halloween bash!!! Kudos to the hostess. xoxox
(Morning Joke mask removed.)
Reminds me of a tweet exchange I had with BWD not long ago where I said something about her liking PBO in casual attire and her response was “what makes you think I prefer any attire at all” or something to that effect.
Told her if I could do emojis I’d respond with the googlie-wide-eyed one.
Not sure if you’re kidding around, but usually the Pope wears red slippers (although Pope Francis has chosen to wear his trusty black work shoes - Ha!).
yes…susanne…not many icons of the struggle are left from that era…he continues to teach us lessons…i will not allow others to rebuke him without comment….
I must say this Halloween gathering is a problem for the President. It is certain to drag his failing presidency further down. Tomorrow we will discuss his failed presidency on Meet the Press. I will be sure to ask the Donald about this troubling news for Obama.
Perfectly legal, comes from our Super PAC, so legally, it can’t be tied to us. What, do you think we want people to know we associate with you? Harrumph! :)
I read somewhere that the candidates are meeting to decide together on the rules for future debates. Oh, what a lovely mess that meeting must be! Maybe there will be a waiter there, with a camera and microphone- because there is bound to be plenty of stuff as good as the 47% bomb.
‘ The two people, who are visiting from Ireland, were reportedly rushed by more than a dozen raccoons while walking their daughter’s dogs. The pets sustained minor injuries, and the woman, whose name was not released, had to receive a rabies shot. ‘
Yes, but were they real raccoons, or costume party raccoons? The article has a handy photo of the real animal, helpfully, and succinctly, captioned ‘raccoon’.
MP stepping out of costume now, am just too tired to play anymore. Had flu shot earlier, hoping for some real sleep. Still sleeping out on the sofa, over four 1/2 months now. Tis bulls**t! Nitey nite TOD, big hugs all around.
As if heroism is out of style. Oh, except with the rethugs, that’s just a word that goes with the sanctimonious face and lying mouth. They have no idea what it really entails, much less have it in them.
Assholes would not be a “new” anything without the “old guard”. No one wants to follow arrogance, BLM will lose if they continue down this road. Remember the Black Panthers anyone? NAACP is till around and doing good works.
Scott Walker here: Hey, uh, Donald. Listen, um, I’m out of the race now, so I’d be happy to give you my endorsement if you could see your way to lend me a small… [click] wha?… Aw man, why is EVERYBODY always hanging up on me?
Hello daahlings. Its aahhriana. Im still drunk from my brunch with pres clinton and the don. Why wont obama lead… ! If only he would do what i say! Lovely daahling!
Earlier this year (in May) Beyonce wore a dress that looked strikingly like another character in Coming to America and, of course, social media went nuts over that, so I guess they decided to play it up for Halloween. :-)

FURST. AS ALWAYS. 8-)
VOTE FOR ME AND MAKE MURKA GREAT AGAIN.
:lol:
now, where are the sexy costumes that I have always heard about but have never seen one?
Is that costume 70% polyester AND machine washable?
No, they would have beat the habit on rocks to get ’em clean, back in the day, smacking them with yardsticks for good measure.
(One of the most finely composed sentences I think I’ve ever posted on the blog. Nothing like being too tired to think - makes one very creative. Or makes one think she’s being very creative.) :)
ah, anger management…

hf had you for that whackjob? she IS a heartless wimmin.
Well, MP here, no, I pleaded not to be #eversotiredofunohoo, so at least HF loves me enough to spare me that.

A whole lot!! > MP
Pope told me that you cannot be absolved for those outfits though….
Well, I never!! Come at me, bithc, I’m ready!! And I am really mad now..
Got to agree with MadameSoph there Kimmy - serious issues - I could NEVER invite you on to my show (Mrs Greenspan here)
You couldn’t pay me enough to come in that show! Besides, I’m working on my book, and really have no time for such nonsense. Gonna be v.e.r.y.v.e.r.y.v.e.r.y Rich. Soon. Yeah.

Great shots.

What a Wonderful Week! Congrats Trump on Furst!
You do know you’re full of IT!
Lil’ “Pope” is looking up at PBO & FLOTUS like “Whatcha’ll laughing at? Huh?
My President looks sexi in this outfit.
Ahem.
Good Halloween evening to you, oh mentor, HF2. Thanks for hosting the Halloween bash!!! Kudos to the hostess. xoxox

Ha! True dat. And thanks Arapaho for being a GREAT sport at the TOD Halloween party and for wearing your Morning Joke costume so well! :)
apple watch ??? NERD.
Oooh, very observant AMK (assuming you are out of costume here; the Donald would never be that savvy).
I am looking at those red shoes. Baby Pope is a girl?
Not sure if you’re kidding around, but usually the Pope wears red slippers (although Pope Francis has chosen to wear his trusty black work shoes - Ha!).
No. not kidding. I did not now the Pope wore red slippers. New info. Thanks!!
That was, of course, one of the cutest things about that little baby Pope! What a great idea.
real popes do dress like girls
/ runs
Ahaaaa!
LOL!!
PBO and MO are so down to earth.
I luv her shoes!
He is the conscience of the United States government.
yes…susanne…not many icons of the struggle are left from that era…he continues to teach us lessons…i will not allow others to rebuke him without comment….
I must say this Halloween gathering is a problem for the President. It is certain to drag his failing presidency further down. Tomorrow we will discuss his failed presidency on Meet the Press. I will be sure to ask the Donald about this troubling news for Obama.
And you weekly check from the KochPAC will be arriving as usual.
Well. I am happy to say, they pay me well!!
…. as long as you do what you’re told! Harrumph! :)
Shhh! You told me those checks would be secret…
Perfectly legal, comes from our Super PAC, so legally, it can’t be tied to us. What, do you think we want people to know we associate with you? Harrumph! :)
Oops! I will deny everything tomorrow. After all, I do a good job of not challenging GOP lies.
Yes, and if you continue on this path, you could receive a bonus in November 2016! A little tax-sheltered thank-you.
I read somewhere that the candidates are meeting to decide together on the rules for future debates. Oh, what a lovely mess that meeting must be! Maybe there will be a waiter there, with a camera and microphone- because there is bound to be plenty of stuff as good as the 47% bomb.
LOL! Best of the day!!!
Yeah, I saw that…
Aiyeeeeeeeeeee!! Bordering on Mankini-level yuck!
Yeah, it’s a toss-up, I think :-)
Looks like a jail suit
Little Jebbie!!!!
See, I’m cool! I can loosen up and git down jiggy with it!
Ya know, he did say he had cool things he could be doing, other than running for president. And here’s the proof!
I have been loving this Halloween……so much creativity..
……………..
What is a mother to say when your daughter says..
For Halloween Mommy, I want to be YOU!
I bet Viola Davis had to excuse herself to go somewhere private and do the ugly cry.
Viola Davis’ daughter.
Love!
Beautiful…Beautiful……
What a gorgeous child!
<3 <3 <3 <3 <3
Holding the Oscar :-) Following mommy’s footsteps in 5, 4, 3, 2….
more cuteness….smilin
O.k. now, that’s not fair. I’m going to be all puffy-looking tomorrow!
GWB is wearing his costume from his White House years, I see….
Madame, you have the best photos!
:-)
judge !!!!
Here’s a Halloween story:
‘ The two people, who are visiting from Ireland, were reportedly rushed by more than a dozen raccoons while walking their daughter’s dogs. The pets sustained minor injuries, and the woman, whose name was not released, had to receive a rabies shot. ‘
Yes, but were they real raccoons, or costume party raccoons? The article has a handy photo of the real animal, helpfully, and succinctly, captioned ‘raccoon’.

I love this man! <3 <3 <3
Thanks MS! :-)
I’ve watched this like 12 times and laughed just as the last time as the first! :-D :-D :-D
not just me, then? :)
the guy with the video camera is the real winnah.
like dancing backwards in high heels :)
:-) Now if he’d only he’d had Princess Jasmine on there with him…
I know right? But, for real, that is totally cool! :-D
They got the writing switched. The one on the right should say ‘t-hee’ and the one on the left is the ‘rump’.
Gorgeous!
MP stepping out of costume now, am just too tired to play anymore. Had flu shot earlier, hoping for some real sleep. Still sleeping out on the sofa, over four 1/2 months now. Tis bulls**t! Nitey nite TOD, big hugs all around.
sweet dreams!
Gunnite Mighty P, and thanks for doing such a fabulous job as Clerk Davis! :)
that smile!!
First time I’ve ever seen a creepy poodle
Reminds me of how OWS disrespected him… ignorant, shameful.
As if heroism is out of style. Oh, except with the rethugs, that’s just a word that goes with the sanctimonious face and lying mouth. They have no idea what it really entails, much less have it in them.

:)
Mrs Greenspan here - For a small fee you can come on my show Mr Walker
Thank you all for a quietly good day! I’m going to bed now so that my extra hour tomorrow will actually feel like an *extra* hour.
G’Night all!
Hopefruit - thanks again for your preparation and involvement!
None of the saboteurs have done well - be interesting to watch the demise of Ryan (again)
For you Dudette:
LOL! Love it! :-D
Goodnight, folks. Spring Ahead, Fall Back!
Oh hell no! I wish a mofo would come up on me with some of this mess. They’d be losing some equipment and maybe a few teeth!
Time for some villagers with torches and pitchforks! :)
Testing.
USA TODers: Have you changed your clocks back one hour?
Nope! I’m a rebel who likes to wait a day or two. That way I can do math every time I look at a clock. :-D
:) - I do that when we travel interstate - never change my watch so I always know the time at home
Not ready yet here on the West Coast. I’ll be doing that later just before bed.
Making the best of a bad situation! Then again, dog does not look amused… :-)
O.k. this is for Hopefruit. Thanks for working so hard to put this together. The party was so much fun this year!
And thanks for volunteering to be Bernie :-)
Goodnight TOD! Enjoy the extra hour of sleep!
Hello daahlings. Its aahhriana. Im still drunk from my brunch with pres clinton and the don. Why wont obama lead… ! If only he would do what i say! Lovely daahling!
Hey Aahriana? What’s a blog? How do you blog?
So Aahriana, do you have, like a… a really BIG blog? Heh-heheheh [snicker, snort]!
Yeh, yeh… I know.
Some of my favorites from the article:
Run DMC

Chuckie Finster

Effie From “Dream Girls”

Speaking of awesome costumes:
Some of you may remember last year Beyonce blew everybody away with a killer Freda Kahlo get up [I still her major applause for that one!]
…
This year she did a Storm (from X-Men costume) a few days ago that was also applause worthy
…
Tonight she and Jay-Z went out to a party as characters from Coming to America! Love it!
Earlier this year (in May) Beyonce wore a dress that looked strikingly like another character in Coming to America and, of course, social media went nuts over that, so I guess they decided to play it up for Halloween. :-)
Heidi Klum went all out! :-D
So freaking AWESOME!!!! :-D
ya gotta love the space crew
Goodnight everybody! :-D
Too cute!
Morning!
