Our pals at Public Policy Polling (we like to say they're our pals, but they don't know us from Adam's off ox) have graced us with a poll on the Idaho midterm elections, and you will be astonished to learn that Idahoans are probably going to elect a bunch of Republicans again.
For many years, there was a flooring place in San Jose, with a very large lighted sign, named <i>Linoleum Dick&#039;s</i>. I have to admit that a park named after &quot;Beaver Dick&quot; is even better.
the only place I have ever heard it was in &#039;It&#039;s a Wonderful Life&quot;. Nick the bartender uses it when George keeps calling him by his given name and of course Nick doesn&#039;t know him &#039;from Adam&#039;s off ox&#039;
True dat! The French farmer&#039;s market spuds are tasty indeed, and quite fresh, but there are no damn bakers anywhere to be found. Still, I can&#039;t complain too much--there are plenty of other preparations for &#039;taters, and many involve butter and/or cream.
Ah, now I&#039;m getting nostalgic. Yet another thing that I&#039;ll have to make sure to eat when I visit my folks for US Thanksgiving. I always make sure takeout Chinese is on my list too. Yes, you can get Chinese food here, but it&#039;s not US-Chinese food, which is it&#039;s own weird subcategory, and I adore it. Strange the things one craves when away from the homeland.
Fun Fact: Most (if not all) of the dishes known to Americans as &quot;Chinese food&quot; were invented in the United States. None of them come from China.
I&#039;m in SW France. Just moved to this region from Lyon, where my hub and I lived for a little over a year. Still newbies to the country, really. Love it, but need to figure out the language a bit better.
Anyway, seems that there are at least a critical mass (2 is critical, right?) to get Trix over here for a European Wonkette drinky thingy. I guess we have to wait until Shy Jr arrives before we can press the issue too much.
In San Francisco an &quot;otter&quot; is a gay guy who isn&#039;t big enough to be called a &quot;bear&quot;. So adding &quot;Butch&quot; to it makes it about the gayest name on the planet.
So something on the order of 7% &quot;don&#039;t think it will make a difference&quot; but still don&#039;t want to allow it? I suppose it&#039;s good to know that the non-fundie &quot;I just hate gays&quot; contingent is that small.

If only the spudmobile and the weinermobile could get together, you could have a SuperTuberMobile.
Butch Otter. What a weasel.

HogeyeGrex, meet Mr. Baker.
Juan Artie Otter.
They do have a habit of wearing tinfoil hats though. Especially after getting baked.
Nope. Never heard it before now.

If we replaced half of the Republicans in Congress with potatoes, would anyone notice the difference?
Funny, I plan to go both ways on Dick Cheney&#039;s grave, once he&#039;s in the ground.
Much like a potato.

I wonder if he knows that?
