I Actually Wanted To Have The Runner-Up Be The Winner And Vice-Versa, But There Was So Very Little To Say About The Runner-Up (Beyond It's Obvious Awesomeness) That I Have Reversed Their Roles. Everybody Will Deal Just Fine, Thank You Very Much!
Hold on--I'm still digesting the title of this blog :)— November 5, 2009 3:06 p.m.
SDGE Lobbyist Said to be Innocent, Reinstated
Uh, that's not at all true, Puppy. Read the link on acrostics. The 'messages' are often buried within a prose-style text.— November 5, 2009 1:20 p.m.

re: #137: Good job, Paul! (People, he did the acrostic, even with all the pesky repeated "Ls" of Duvall, etc.)— November 5, 2009 1:09 p.m.

re: #63: "Frankensteinian...:" Well, tiki, there's a theory about growing up on foods loaded with preservatives (as I did) and certain autoimmune diseases that typically show up in your twenties. re: #65: Woops. Sorry I missed all that--and refried was right--the tigers turn to butter, not syrup! I guess I always had pancakes there as a kid, so it made me think of syrup. Wow, the little red jacket and trousers, etc.--very nostalgic, that place. Yes, Sambo is looking very anemic these days--guess he's been existing solely on Sambo's breakfasts :)— November 5, 2009 1 p.m.

Good one, russ! To help us avoid totally jacking this thread, I think it's about time paul writes an acrostic spelling out "Duvall Loves Lobbyists" :)— November 5, 2009 12:27 p.m.
SDGE Lobbyist Said to be Innocent, Reinstated
"Imitation suuuuuuucks!" Well, in that case, at least you can be assured that I wasn't trying to imitate something you did, as stated earlier. Btw, I looked at that thread, and did not see that you had written an acrostic--you had posted Ahnold's, right?— November 5, 2009 12:16 p.m.

re: #122: Why, thank you dear! Neither I nor Ahnold can take credit for inventing--it is a form of poetry called an acrostic--amusing to think that Ahnold (or staff) brought a rather esoteric poetic form to the attention of the general public. Though this story was ALL over the news for a few days, I don't think I heard anyone use the term "acrostic:" http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Acrostic— November 5, 2009 12:02 p.m.

Doesn't sound like pig flu, Pete, because the big "D" is not a main feature. More the sweat and freeze, very high temps, and what you mentioned made me think of it with the neck pain--severe body aches. Hope you are drinking LOTS of water, rather than the bourbon advocated in another thread :) Yes, that's the Bob we were discussing earlier--Tiki's rad link to the new Broiler in Downey has Bob up on top of the building, and the expression looked a bit different, but it is prob. the same one. Inside looks cool, too, with one of those old 60s chandeliers and stainless steel ceiling. I want to go! Next time we head that way!— November 5, 2009 9:06 a.m.
Did Dominelli Study Ponzi?
Well, Ponzi? Did you ever catch Dominelli 'studying' you from behind dark shades and low slung fedora? At the coffeeshop, perhaps? :)— November 5, 2009 8:24 a.m.
None
Cuddle brings the funny, as SP likes to say! ;)— November 5, 2009 8:18 a.m.
