Look, I don't know why I make these things. Stop looking at me like that!

People have said these things about that :

Would you rather have Tricky Dick's dick or Slick Willie's willie?

Posted by: ColdChef on September 15, 2002 09:47 AM

Ha!Ha!Ha!

Nixon was a rum and coke (yeah, I know...) and a J(usterini) &B(rooks) man. Guess who drank gin and tonics - here's a list of presidential tipples from...what?...National Geographic?!

Stav, isn't there something wrong with this sentence? Shouldn't be it more along the lines of "Here's what people had to say about this"?

Posted by: Miguel on September 15, 2002 10:37 AM

Shouldn't it be more...serves me right!

Posted by: Miguel on September 15, 2002 10:37 AM

Nixon also loved to snack on cottage cheese and ketchup, another sign of a twisted mind.

Of course, but there's Correct and then there's Comedic, and the intersection of the two sometimes Make Doves Cry...

...on the other hand, I was drubker than Dean Martin when I wrote the clotheshanger-content (to coin a phrase) for the templates here, and am perfectly amenable to the Administratos fiddling with the phraseology....

JFK drank daiquiris!?!?

Well, that explains everything.

Posted by: brittney on September 15, 2002 11:24 AM

Vodka and Tonic Betty Ford, Jacqueline Kennedy

Velly intellestink.

Posted by: Crash on September 15, 2002 12:48 PM

Vodka and Tonics at Betty Ford??

That's ain't right, man.

Posted by: jonmc on September 15, 2002 01:05 PM

Never liked the Gin and Tonic, the Gin and Juice, and a little chronic, however is another story entirely.

Posted by: eyeballkid on September 15, 2002 01:48 PM

I'd like to formally apologize for my comments above regarding each of the "presidential staffs."

I blame the Dutch.

Posted by: ColdChef on September 15, 2002 02:23 PM

I would also like to say that, if America does go to war with Iraq, I sincerely hope that "Bombs Over Bagdad" by Outkast doesn't become a rallying song like they did in 1991 with "Rocking the Casbah."

Posted by: ColdChef on September 15, 2002 03:26 PM

Well, you know Richard's staff had to be in mint condition compared to Bill's.

There seems to be a cabal of hygenically-challenged morons afoot in CT and they seem to have chosen my workplace as a hangout.

That is all.

Posted by: jonmc on September 15, 2002 04:49 PM

I mean no offense to hygenically-challenged Americans, but one of these gentleman also had about two teeth, spewed saliva while he spoke, was beligerent, asked stupid questions, kept trying to gouge me for discounts and apparently didn't believe in deodorant. It was like he hit some kind of repugnancy superfecta.

Frighteningly, he had a woman with him who appeared to be his girlfreind. The mind boggles. He also had a very quiet male freind with him who had "I've-got-cub-scouts-buried-under-the-porch" eyes.

Ah, the rich pallette of humanity...

Posted by: jonmc on September 15, 2002 04:56 PM

... I knew Mom and Dad would show up somewhere. Whatever you do, Jon, don't give them any money.

i loved nixon's nose.
it glows, all pink and rose,
the new guys are my foes:
this bush administration blows.

Posted by: quonsar on September 16, 2002 09:47 AM

Nixon: I don't need you to tell me how fucking good my coffee is, OK. I'm the one who buys it, I know how good it is. When Pat goes shopping, she buys shit! I buy the gourmet expensive stuff 'cause when I drink it, I wanna taste it.

Posted by: octobersurprise on September 16, 2002 10:03 AM

I like how Nixon (or, at least, his head) is the one recurring Presidential figure in Futurama (i.e. the year 3000)...

the man's legacy will live forever.

Posted by: scribblative on September 16, 2002 10:16 AM

I like your your find strav...Nixon had a potato head(it was big on his shoulder)to me, like OJ's too.

Posted by: thomcatspike on September 16, 2002 11:21 AM

still laughn' at octobersurprise's comment.

Posted by: dong_resin on September 16, 2002 12:14 PM

Clinton's nose would totally kick Nixon's nose.

Posted by: jpoulos on September 16, 2002 12:15 PM

I cant cut and paste yet. (teacher thinks i may make another KILLERBOT-pat.pend.)
but could someone put up the picture of nixon playing the piano or one of Norman rockwells portraits of Dick I. to cheer stavs up.

Let's rub noses
Like the eskimoses.

Posted by: kafkaesque on September 16, 2002 12:28 PM

These noses, dear hearts, is always a-warrin' and a-tuggin', one agin the other. Now, watch 'em. Ol' brother Nixon's Nose. Nixon's Nose is a-fightin'. And it looks like Clinton's Nose is a goner. But wait a minute, wait a minute! Hot dog! Clinton's Nose is a winnin'. Yes, sirree. It's Clinton's Nose that won and ol' Nixon's Nose is down for the count.

Posted by: kafkaesque on September 16, 2002 12:40 PM

On the above noses is that a dimple or a cleft?

Posted by: thomcatspike on September 16, 2002 01:09 PM

One man's nose dimple is another man's nose cleft, as a wise nose prophet once said.

I prefer nose crevasse myself.

Posted by: kafkaesque on September 16, 2002 01:38 PM

I think Thom's question is very clear and concise. Does that mean I'm drubk?

Posted by: tipsy, err, tizzie on September 16, 2002 02:04 PM

We all know they're penoses.

whew. fixed page.

Posted by: jpoulos on September 16, 2002 02:18 PM

rather substandard penoses at that!

Life Sucks and I Hate People.

Just felt like sharing.

Posted by: jonmc on September 16, 2002 03:06 PM

Is it these penoses getting you down? They make me feel pretty creepy myself.

No, I know people suck. I'm sorry about that reality.

Turn that frown upside down, you big silly.

Posted by: kafkaesque on September 16, 2002 03:11 PM

You know pal, we're not so crazy about you either.

Posted by: People on September 16, 2002 03:13 PM

I am! I'm crazy about jonmc!
(but hey, I'm easy.)

Why, cruel world, why? The People have turned from us!

Was it that little comment above? Ignore that, I was just, y'know, trying to soothe jonmc. I didn't, y'know, mean anything by it.

*shuffles uncomfortably*

Posted by: readymade on September 16, 2002 03:29 PM

People
People who need Jonmc
Are the luckiest
People of all.

Life Sucks and I Hate People.

Taglines galore.

FWIW, yeah, 90% of the people I come into contact with deserve nothing less than a lifetime of torture. But it's the ones that don't who count (and it is those who I can't seem to be around enough).

Posted by: adampsyche on September 16, 2002 03:33 PM

Oh, and it is with sincere regret, and a heavy heart, that I report to you that my request to drive the zamboni while wearing assless chaps and spanking a midget were turned down.

Posted by: adampsyche on September 16, 2002 03:35 PM


I don't know. I keep wanting to walk up to the Presidents, grab their little noses between my fingers and say in my best John Houseman voice:

"I've got your nose. I have your nose."

Should I seek help?

kaf, uh well how about this then, your crevasse

Posted by: thomcatspike on September 16, 2002 04:08 PM

jonmc: as the subject of a recent local tv news "expose" i can tell you that not only does life suck and that people are truly hateful liars and gullible schmoes, but that tv assholes who want your picture are willing to spend most of a labor day weekend hiding in a garbage dumpster with a camera pointed at your door. that can be a remarkably cheering thought especially if you are camping 100 miles away at the time, and had some really nasty leftovers the week before. :-)

Life Sucks and I Hate People

It could be worse, luv. You could work in tourism. Trust me.

And I have just been informed I get to make a speech about it in front of over a hundred people thanks to me replacing a sick collegue. I'm not a speech type of a girl. Interpretive dance, yes. Speech, no. Color me abso-fucking-lutly terrified. I'm going to go freak out now.

Posted by: jpoulos on September 16, 2002 05:04 PM

what color is "terrified"?

Posted by: jpoulos on September 16, 2002 05:05 PM

AMENDMENT: I hate people except for the 9622 crew.

Thanks for the pick-me-ups. It's actually been nothing but the usual job-related shit in an uninterrupted stream. Although, for some reason today it keeps occuring to me that I'm only on the planet for a finite time and this is not how I wanna spend it.

Sadly, the only thing keeping me from walking out the door is the fact that I have to borrow $5 for gas from my supervisor cos my check hasn't arrived.

Life is a play cast by a schizophrenic

Posted by: jonmc on September 16, 2002 05:15 PM

I didn't realize how big it was, the statue CC.

Jon, your right, about the cast of life, sometimes I feel like taking back my pharmacy prescription for the world..............ME

thanks for the kind words, your admendment, as somtimes I come here to Check In with the World

Posted by: thomcatspike on September 16, 2002 06:09 PM

"what color is "terrified?"

Well, brown, of course.

Posted by: dong_resin on September 16, 2002 07:15 PM

Well, brown, of course.
Nope. Green. (I ate spinach for dinner last night)

Thom, not only is the David huge, there is a freaky optical illusion as you walk around the front half that makes it seem as if his eyes are following you.

Posted by: romakimmy on September 17, 2002 08:46 AM

well, that's because he was looking directly into the camera.

Giant Leap Forward for Mankind:

"Who Wants to Be a Millionaire" moves to daytime today, though the show will be without some of its familiar trappings...
And Vieira won't rattle off the show's trademark line - "Is that your final answer?" - which became a national catch phrase after host Regis Philbin introduced it on the show's prime-time version three years ago.

Instead, she'll say, "Final?" or "Final answer?" after players give their responses to multiple-choice questions.

Executive producer Michael Davies said the changes were made to help Vieira brand the show as her own.
