2. Yeah I know

Those velvet ropes are just a figment.

Damn those figments.

To hell I say!

[Bucky]

3. The figments have always hated me. I never get figment party invites

Stoopid friggin' figments.

[LaurenG]

4. Do ya want to come to my party

we can invite all the figments.

5. But I have heard tell of a couple of Sneetches around these parts...

[LaurenG]

6. What is a sneetches

you are gonna have to let me in on that.

[ScreamingMeemie]

7. You know...Dr. Seuss...? Please tell me you know about "Stars upon Thars"

http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/0394800893/002-2726218...

It's about two groups of Sneetches. One group with stars on their bellies, one without. The ones without get a machine that will put "stars upon thars"...the originally starred Sneetches get angry and take theirs off...it ends up getting so confusing trying to tell who was an originally starred Sneetch and who was not, that they decide to just accept everybody and live happily ever after. It's a wonderful story...I think his best.

9. I like that. I don't have a star but if I did I would give it up gladly

That really is a good Dr. Seuss story. My kids won't sit down and let me read with them anymore! (I don't know why?) Well maybe it's because they're too old now and my "baby" is having a baby any day now. I must get that book for new baby!

[ScreamingMeemie]

12. Force Them! That's what I do!

I'm kidding. But James is iffy on being read to. We started "Charlie and the Chocolate Factory" but I think he is moving past having Mama read to him. Congrats Grandma! That is wonderful news!

[LaurenG]

16. Thank you!

I am so excited. My son and his S.O. are such a good democrats, they will be wonderful parents just on that fact alone.

10. She had a very deprived childhood

But we can fix that

Stars upon thars, indeed - one of the best stories ever written about racism and prejudice and how ridiculous it is.

Khash.

[LaurenG]

13. I surely did

my mom only bought me Grimm's and Hans C. Anderson!

[ScreamingMeemie]

17. And then you laid awake at night wondering what "Alas! and Alack!" meant.

I know...me too...And I also wondered why they would call a head of lettuce a salad. And I lived in fear of the "Ice Queen"...and wondered why only Snow White got a movie, and not Rose Red too....ahhhh memories...where are my red shoes anyway?

[ScreamingMeemie]

14. The simpler the better.

Seuss had it down pat.

[khashka]

8. Now Mrs G, please!

There are some Bandersnatches and some Boojums, but I haven't seen a Sneetch in, well, months!

Dr.Seuss has gone to your head.

Put down the Seuss and pick up the Lewis Carroll and we'll all be a lot happier.

Khash.

[ScreamingMeemie]

11. But you know what happens when I pick up the Lewis Carroll...

Last time it took MONTHS before I was back to my old self.


Khash!!! It is GREAT to see you! I've been missing you. We must not be on at the same times.

[Heidi]

15. Now, wait a minute.

[LaurenG]

18. Was I wrong or what?

There is an in crowd. We must add 87,000 (or so) pics and names under the one of Bryan Ferry.

[Heidi]

19. PM Skinner and

tell him to get right on that!

(I Bryan Ferry. *Swoon.*)

[LaurenG]

20. Well I hate it when Skinner curses

and I'd hate it even more if it was directed at me...you do it, OK?

[Heidi]

21. I have an idea!

Let's get Call Me Wesley to do it. He could make it his 4,000th (and last) post.

[LaurenG]

22. Poor man

Who would post all the DU'ers looking fancy and hunky and hot then? I don't think we can afford to let him be done away with like that. We would all be too sad.

[Heidi]

23. Oh.

You're referring to CMW's Photoshopping skills. You're right. He's a keeper.

[CaliforniaPeggy]

24. My dear OhioBlues!

There is TOO an in crowd!

And its name is the DemocraticUnderground........

And all us liberal progressive types belong here!


How you doing this fine Saturday? Hope all is well in your corner of the world, my dear!

[LaurenG]

25. Well Peggy that is the best answer yet!

I am doing just great. I hope you are well too!
