    BB,

    A very happy birthday to someone who should be heading up her own investigative newsteam and be running an editorial newsboard with Kat. Which you kinda are 😉

    Love,

    Wonk

      Wonk – I have been away for several days and I am so delighted to return and find you in the house.

      Now it feels like a warm and comfortable home.

      Welcome.

      “A rare recording of Happy Birthday done by the Beatles.

      The recording is from an appearance on the BBC’s ‘Saturday Club’…which is who/what they are singing Happy Birthday to.”

    Happy Birthday, BB. Best wishes for you are coming your way. And, a toast in your honor.

    I don’t know if you are familiar with Hoops and YoYo. They’re a riot. Someone sent this to me last year. So, here’s a birthday greeting from these two chaps. 😉

    Hey Boomer – another Sagittarian seeker of Truth, seeker of Wisdom. So happy you are over here and wish you the VERY best of all that Life has to offer. And THAT is a lot! Many happy returns of the day!

    Happy Birthday BostonBoomer!!! Can we have kittehs again now? Don’t start your tek back east until it gets a tad warmer.

      bostonboomer

      Thanks, Boo Radly. We have a little bit of snow on the ground today. I’ll have to check the forcasts carefully before I hit the road again. At least I won’t get groped–unless they are searching people at rest areas now.

      Kittehs? Hmmm… I’ll work on that.

        Well, no snow in the mid Atlantic today. Springlike temperatures and all day rain. I spent hours on the road today driving through it.

        And yes to kittehs!

    BB – I have been away from the internet and tv for several days. I am trying to review all the crazy news of the past week and clearly have some serious catching up to do.

    Meanwhile, a birthday and a birthday wish is something I can easily comprehend. So…

    Happy Birthday To You.
    Happy Birthday To You.
    Happy Birthday Dear BB
    Happy Birthday To You!

    Thanks for your regular posting of all the news that matters.

    hought you might enjoy this if you have not seen it:

    FAIL: Senate Dems’ Unconstitutional Mishap Could Kill Food Safety Bill –

    “In what amounts to an epic constitutionality #fail, Senate Democrats may have blown their chances to see their food safety bill signed into law. The U.S. constitution requires that any revenue-raising bill must originate in the House of Representatives.”

      Hi Dee,

      Thanks so much. I saw that story. Can you believe it? The Senate wasted all week on that bill instead of extending unemployment benefits.

    BB, I’m not savvy enough to sent you a song. So let me offer one of the funniest titles to a column I read today. http://www.openleft.com/diary/20986/obama-says-poke-both-your-eyes-out-at-once

      Thanks! That is funny. Paul Rosenberg is a very smart man. It’s a shame he sold out, but he’s still head and shoulders above the rest of the progs.

      1. pdgrey Avatar
        pdgrey

        Yea, I agree about Paul, but that was too damn funny. It’s a keeper for me. I have this pension for remembering obscure lines from film noir. My last one was “Get some trees behind us, Charlie”, gangsters in a getaway car. God, I love good writing!

    2. dakinikat Avatar

      wow, that’s fierce!!!

      1. pdgrey Avatar
        pdgrey

        By the way, did you notice Paul asked his readers to come up with their own letter suggestions and only two people did. I’m sure we could help Paul come up with some great letters. Off the top of my head, Obama says, write a letter to the editor praising his feminism.

    Oh, Boomer, just celebrate the entire month – or at least, until the Solstice on the 21st. What’s a Sag to do but celebrate, celebrate, dance to the music!

      Good idea. Maybe I’ll just keep celebrating until New Year’s Eve.
