DanaC 11-05-2008 08:44 PM

I'd rather set up my own country where no-one is judged by race and The Man can't touch me.

:lol: here comes a storm of Blazing saddles references, no doubt ...

"Where is the white women at?"

Ibby 11-06-2008 02:57 AM

let me just, whip this out...

Big Sarge 11-06-2008 07:46 AM

Wouldn't be the first time I picked cotton! You know, I bet the president elect has never picked any. Stereotype reversal? I just figured it out.....I'm more black than Obama.

BTW, he will be my commander in chief and I will treat him as such. Time to put the election behind us.

Radar 11-06-2008 10:14 AM

I picked cotton before too, and here's a tip. Wear thick gloves or you will regret it!

Big Sarge 11-06-2008 10:33 AM

Radar, you "cotton pickin".....

Have you ever heard that before? I remember when "cotton pickin" was used as an expletive

I think Yosemite Sam used to say "cotton pickin" when muttering about Bugs Bunny.

I know my mother used to use the phrase in the 70's. It wasn't until a decade or two later that I wondered if the saying had racist roots. I know Mom didn't/doesn't.

Cicero 11-06-2008 11:24 AM

Heh. I'm putting W. behind me. Happily, oh so happily. That's the good news.

Bye!!!!

"Bye bye Bush" deserves it's own thread, with letters and photos, but I'm lazy.

Shawnee123 11-06-2008 11:32 AM

I have lost my president
I don't care, he was bent
Bye bye Bushie

He was not so good to me
gas was high, poverty
Bye bye Bushie

Oil money following behind him
Follow it and you would always find him
Start a war, create a fright
Your son won't come home tonight
Bushie, bye bye

--sung to Bye Bye Blackbird.

Go here.

I agree, but we may be talking about different things.

Cicero 11-06-2008 11:44 AM

Yea. It just set in when I saw Obama make his speech. It was like, holy shit, Bush isn't going to be president anymore. I knew it intellectually, but when I felt it, it was like an epiphany. Grand it was, so grand....Fucking yeaaa!! Omg. I thought it would never be over, oh he's still there? Fuck.

I don't care about either of the candidates. The fact that, that over-glorified piece of shit isn't going to be effecting my life anymore, I care a lot about. It's like a break up. I was traumatized.

Bye bye bad maaaaan bye bye!!!

uuuh. He gave me the blues. I think I'm pulling out of a depression I was only slightly aware I had. What is that feeling? Wait...Is that hope? Holy shit! Is that what that feels like? Or is that a fraction of the doom feeling leaving my body?

Those were back in the early Bugs Bunny days.

I thought you said, "Time to put the erection behind us."

Big Sarge 11-06-2008 01:21 PM

HLJ - I was drifting off subject talking about cotton picking with Radar

HungLikeJesus 11-06-2008 01:53 PM

Sarge, I think you need to re-read my comment.

Big Sarge 11-06-2008 02:41 PM

yep - just did. It's hard seeing wearing this foil head wrap

and "dagnabbit"

I use that one from time to time.

sweetwater 11-06-2008 03:20 PM

I wanted the theme song to Bugs Bunny sung at our wedding.
Overture, curtains, lights
This is it
The night of nights
No more rehearsing and nursing our parts

etc.
They wouldn't let us do it, btw. :(
Back to cotton. Did you hear Redd Foxx's joke that his grandfather "died of a headache because he was too proud to pick the cotton from a bottle of aspirin". And I only see the greens picking cotton herabouts, they might be John Deere or McCormick, I dunno.

Shawnee123 11-06-2008 03:49 PM

WHO wouldn't let you do that, sweetwater? That is an absolutely stupendous idea.

sweetwater 11-06-2008 09:19 PM

Those silly church people didn't think it was right or something. So as we were gripping hands up there we were both thinking it, and trying to not laugh - but alas, we did anyway. :)

Shawnee123 11-07-2008 07:24 AM

Sounds great! You should have made it your reception entrance theme. I love it!

Urbane Guerrilla 11-08-2008 10:04 PM

Shawnee's right... that would have worked for the reception.

xoxoxoBruce 11-08-2008 10:15 PM

My new years eve party will have a theme this year.
