1. Hi Crazy Guggenheim! How are you today?.

:hi:

I just tuned in.

I love your sig line! I haven't seen BOSSHOG around lately. I need to let him know that, at last, my pink Gumpo azaleas are blooming!

[Crazy Guggenheim]

9. Hey CottonBear!

Get a hold of him!

[proud patriot]

:hi:

[WahooJunkie]

3. Here...

...in spirit

I can't listen to Randi in the lab today, repugs are around. Only when they are off doing something else can I listen to hours 1 and 2.

I'll catch 3 and 4 when I get home

:toast:

[CottonBear]

5. Hello and welcome to DU WahooJunkie!

:hi: :toast:

[Crazy Guggenheim]

6. So Sorry! I had to cut out for a second!

[funkybutt]

7. Thanks! tuning in now

:D

[Crazy Guggenheim]

10. Welcome funkybutt! Thanks for getting down with us!

[Blue Belle]

8. I'm here...

What are we doing?

[Crazy Guggenheim]

11. Welcome Blue Belle! We are listening to the RR show together

on AAR!

[Blue Belle]

20. Right on.

I love her! :-)

[funkybutt]

12. Just saw another thread about Randi winning Employee of the Year

[Crazy Guggenheim]

13. What??

[funkybutt]

68. Here's a link

http://www.democraticunderground.com/discuss/duboard.php?az=show_topic&forum=104&topic_id=3725219

[Crazy Guggenheim]

64. Where is the thread?

[Crazy Guggenheim]

14. Randi. Let him finish.

[CottonBear]

16. At times, she can talk over her guests and callers.

She gets excited. I still love her though! :)

[eleny]

18. And calling him "arrogant"???

Pot/Kettle. I thought he was just passionate and concerned for America.

No thanks, Randi, I don't need for you to straighten me out about this issue. We got the 3 worse judges. Not all things are equal. Especially this 3 for 3 or 3 for 4 judges deal.

I think I've had it with Randi for this week. And on this whole issue. For now - I can listen to Ray Talafierro and Bernie Ward archives and keep my blood pressure down.

[Crazy Guggenheim]

19. Welcome eleny!

[geomon666]

15. When did 4 judges get blocked?

I missed that one. :shrug:

[Crazy Guggenheim]

17. Me too!

[Crazy Guggenheim]

21. She didn't think this comprimise was so bad yesterday. I

don't know what's happened to her. I hate to say it but I think some of AAR personalities ego's are getting out of hand.

[geomon666]

22. Yesterday and again today

are making me sour on her. I hate that. Because I listened in 2000 and beyond when the s*** hit the fan. She has tremendous faith in the Senate Dems where as I have none anymore.

[Crazy Guggenheim]

23. I'm starting to get sour on here too.

[Individualist]

57. I listen to Randi every day

but don't always agree with her. This is one of the times I certainly don't agree.

[Crazy Guggenheim]

59. Welcome notsodumbhillbilly!

[Drewskie]

24. her too?

Weird. Everyone was just relieved the filibuster is intact... the repubs are still getting what they want apparently.

[Crazy Guggenheim]

26. Welcome Drewskie!

She said something like 'if the Republicans don't like it it can't be all bad'.

[Crazy Guggenheim]

27. Does anyone know what the name of her intro music is?

[proud patriot]

37. It's metallica

:hi:

[Crazy Guggenheim]

38. Rock on! Which song? lol.

:headbang:

[proud patriot]

44. I'm pretty sure it's off the black album

" Sad but true " I believe I could be wrong though
It might be off Master of puppts :think:

[Crazy Guggenheim]

28. They are tryng to save their own asses.

[Crazy Guggenheim]

29. Alright Randi you're better! lol.

[Crazy Guggenheim]

30. Good point on the excess eggs.

[Crazy Guggenheim]

31. 'We will continue to press for an up or down agreement.'

[Crazy Guggenheim]

32. On a different point I heard that Andy S. just got out of surgery.

He's fine.

[CottonBear]

35. That is good news.

I don't know much about Andy and the whole BBV story. He does seem to do good work and seemed to be truly in need of financial assistance.

[Crazy Guggenheim]

36. I guess so. I wish him well.

[CottonBear]

33. Is it true that the web was only 50 pages when Clinton was first elected?

I remember getting a new Macintosh computer in 1994 and going online to an Apple Computers site. I was not familiar with the internet at all.

[Crazy Guggenheim]

34. That's about right.

[eleny]

45. we got on the net around '91

way more than 50 pages but a much quieter place for sure! sort of cozy, actually.

[CottonBear]

48. My ex-husband was on the proto-net back in 1986-87.

He worked in the computer science dept. of a major university. You had to know UNIX and use SUN micro-computers to access the web. It was mostly scientists sending text messages.

[eleny]

61. The dial-up bulletin board days

I belonged to several bb's in those days that I accessed from the house. So it must have been the later 80s. It was a lot of fun and not slow at all since it was just text. We had a Radio shack 'puter. Things sure exploded shortly after that. I was always needing my husband's help since dos always made me feel all thumbs. He was a hardware guy and worked on Unix systems for a living. Those were the days of the gigantic hard drives.

[CottonBear]

39. So, do the fundies think that IVF should be banned

since many fertilized eggs/embryos are created in a petri dish only to have most discarded? Is it better to leave them frozen forever?

To answer myself: No they don't. But it's NOT OK to discard the unused eggs/embryos? My brain may explode.

[Crazy Guggenheim]

40. "We're shot up hormones and we'll kill you!"

:woohoo:

[CottonBear]

42. "It's all about the sperm." That's so true.

Here's a thought about why the fundies don't want gay marriage:
if anyone could get married to whoever they want then someone might think that you're gay if you're married.

[Crazy Guggenheim]

43. Excellent logic!

:woohoo: :rofl:

[Crazy Guggenheim]

41. The Repukes are anti-people!

[CottonBear]

46. They are pro-fetus and embryo but anti-baby.

Once you're born, they hate you. Now if you end up brain dead they'll love you again. Sick bastards.

[CottonBear]

47. She just hung up on a guy who called in about stem cell research.

He wouldn't admit that he wanted to control how other people (women) used his sperm once he's spilled it! LOL!

[Must_B_Free]

51. that is BS

she distorted what she wouldn't let him say...

[CottonBear]

55. I didn't like that she did that.

She should have let him make his point. He was not a bad guy. He didn't have a chance to say anything. I've heard her be much nicer to callers. She's not so polite this week. :)

[Crazy Guggenheim]

49. Now she's got a point on what he said. Resources.

[Crazy Guggenheim]

50. Bump.

[CottonBear]

52. Now she's talking about the Corporate Media cancelling the news.

Poor runway bride. She's just a crazy, stressed out white chick. She needs mental therapy and possibly psychiatric medication not prison

[Crazy Guggenheim]

53. That's a good point she made.

[Crazy Guggenheim]

54. Voting for their own personal interests.

[scarletlib]

56. Randi rules

I listen to her everyday. Sometimes she makes a mistake but she is always passionate. I don't always agree with her on everything but she knows how to put on a good show.

Talking about the Scripps Research Center moving to Palm Beach County now.

[CottonBear]

58. What is the Scripps Research Center and why the move to Florida?

I missed that part of the broadcast.

edit: I son't always agree with her either, but, all in all, she rocks! She's passionate, informed, articulate and entertaining.
She really gets the Freepers riled up too!

[scarletlib]

66. Scripps is a bio research center currently located in C alifornia

Supposedly they want to expand their operations to the east coast. They chose Palm Beach County in FLorida for their future location. Of course, jeb was involved in the whole deal so I can't help but feel there are some kind of strings attanched in some ulterior way to the whole deal.

[Crazy Guggenheim]

60. Shiela Jackson Lee!

[Crazy Guggenheim]

62. So what is a snowflake baby? On Edit: It's a leftover egg from

IVF.

[Crazy Guggenheim]

63. Bump for snowflake.

[Crazy Guggenheim]

65. How does everyone like these commercials on AAR? Well,

I suppose when you're starting out you gotta take what you can get.

:popcorn:

[Crazy Guggenheim]

67. Good speech Rhodes!
