Saturday Morning
What on Earth (ok, above Earth) were those two Northwest pilots doing for the hour and 18 minutes that flight controllers couldn’t get ahold of them? One of the pilots is speaking out this morning. We’ll show you?
Let’s talk housework. Does doing housework pay dividends in the bedroom? And if you agree with this new survey of 7000 married couples, what”s the link between household chores and marital relations???

Good morning Ms Alisyn,
What are the teams for the pool today?
chas
Good Morning Alisyn and to everyone on the blog this morning.
Alisyn, they were up to NO GOOD! Look for them to be fired and licenses pulled. Or they should be.
Good Morning Ali

Good morning, Alisyn and everyone.

Why things need to change….
America’s top 1% own more than 90% of America’s wealth
The average worker’s income has declined in three decades while CEO compensation exploded over ten times
The Fed is now the ‘fourth branch of government’ operating autonomously, secretly printing money at will
401(k)s have lost 26.7% of their value in the past decade
Oil and energy costs will skyrocket
Foreign nations and sovereign funds have started dumping dollars, signaling the end of the dollar as the world’s reserve currency
Good Morning Carolyn,
Chas, flip a coin on Jets or Oakland…thats about it on that game.
Good morning everyone.
I love ya, Me, but gotta Rock Chalk Jayhawk today.
But which one do you want Sal?
chas
Ok you guy’s no ganging up on me!
Morning Liz you go girl LOL rock the chalk jayhawks lol
Good Morning Everyone
I think the pilots fell asleep… why else wouldn’t they respond for such a long time…
Hubby helps with housework except for cooking, using the dishwasher and doing laundry… (he burned the food and my good pans…..used the wrong detergent in the dishwasher and too much detergent in the washing machine) So these chores are off limit for him…. As for his helping pays him more dividends in the bedroom??? Nah,,, he works nights I sleep alone…. he sleeps days and I am busy with my mom and grandsons….
I’m not sure I want to know what the pilots were doing, but I would like to know why the flight attendant didn’t try to contact them sooner.
I’ll let you know about the housework thing after WE clean the junk out of the basement today!
Alisyn…what can I say. I’d do your chores any time.
Liz K LOL LOL
I’ll come back shortly and do a final count on the picks. Get them in soon and thanks to all who already have.
chas
ok AJ……no brown nosing….oh wait….I meant to say that to the pilots! LOL
I hear you Jimmy,
Colleen Pittsburgh is very tough at home.

Good Morning Lori,
I hear you…biggest game of the season…. they will be ready for them, its up to the defense?
Guess it is time to go, it was fun if only for a short while. Evil lurks, so time to escape before it takes over.
You all have a wonderful day, Go Steelers!!!!
Sal I was wishig I had your e-mail address lst week. We had 8 extra tickets to the game and neither my family nor my in-laws could make it (plus most of them our browns fans and no sense in wasting tickets on them… yuckie!!!!!..LOL) and I wanted to know if you wanted them…’
If Chas or (Sterling) would be so gracious as to give you my e-mail you can write me in case that ever happens again, I’ll know how to reach ya.
Eileen..to funny…lol
Oh lord sal I know… I can’t believe we lost aaron smith for the season! grrrrrrrrrrrrrr…. hope troy is 100 percent, and ben puts up lots of points!
Have a great day Mary…Go Steelers!!!
Everyone have a wonderful day. Have to get busy on that basement with Hubby! Who knows where it might lead…..the possibilities seem endless……….fussing over what to throw away……how are we getting this out of here anyway? You expect me to lift that? ….total exhaustion….ahhhh yes, a lovely day of working together….
have fun in the basement Liz K…..could be interesting! LOL
off to spend the day see every one later
remember the warning lables I gave ya’s
Lori, Pittsburgh has to stop their running game and force them to pass,
and if troy is 100% we will have a few picks, its up to the defense.
Sal if your right we will be sure to have a few good things to say tomorrow!
LOL
Have a great day Eileen.
mmm I know sal… that new kid ziggy looked ok… but no aaron. Tomlin says he is still in the “oven” and isn’t quite ready yet! LOl I agree he needs help to stop the run and then that leaves single coverage…. kinda scary.. fingers crossed….
btw the tickets are given to us and we just pass them on if we cant use them..they are 4 and 4 both sets are great seats one set is better though in the private box area..
I hear Colleen…lol
Lori, we have to stop the run, and force the passing game, and our defense has to come through,
if they play like they did in cincy, its over, Brett will pick us apart,
and thanks for thinking of me about the tickets.
sal…..we aren’t thinking about the cincy game.. those two games are never to be spoken of again! LOL
take care.. all… here we go Steelers…
Well, ME – everything I post is 100% true – just way over your heads. It’s unfortunate that so many people don’t really get it, and that’s why it happened.
Have a wonderful day everyone
lizard poop…yet again! Hoot! Hoot!
GO MICHIGAN……
hey Liz…why don’t you start your own blog, and see how many followers you get….or are you afraid to try? Hoot! Hoot! I’d love to see the stats on that! Hoot! Hoot!
Maybe you could go international…..I’m sure they would love your opinions in N Korea, Venezuela, and Iran! You could be a big hit in those places! Especially in Cuba! Hoot! Hoot!
And let’s not forget China! Hoot! Hoot! Can you say “Mao”? Hoot! Hoot!
Guess you have nothing o say? Oh well, it is about time for you to hibernate! Hoot! Hoot! Hopefully we won’t hear from you again until next May! Hoot! Hoot!
Have to get the day rolling. Have a good one guys.
Sal~~~~I don’t think I get the game here
So can you please root for me a little
Ya know friends & all.
Hey Jimmy, you must be a lonely professor – not very many are on right-wing fringe! Is that why you don’t cheer for your team?
BOOMER SOONER BABY!!!
As a matter of fact, the right-wing fringe is not welcome in the NFL either – i.e. Limbaugh! LMAO!
I’m surprised anyone here is into football – must be a “evil” liberal game!
Colleen, the game is on Fox, you should get it, if not I will keep you posted on twitter.
Hey lori,
Hummmmm, we would be at odds over the Steelers game..lol But I’m not picking winners this year. Just keeping stats and suggesting games for the pool. Thanks for the picks.
I’d be willing to help in the exchange of e-mails for you and Sal. You’d have to write me though because I lost a lot of addresses when I got this new lap top.
Voting closes in 30 minutes, ’cause I have things to do.
chas
I am an excellent professor, Liz….my students like me because I present all sides in class…and create thinking and discussion…..my personal opinions are only expressed in here. Unlike my liberal colleagues….I don’t force my personal ideas onto my students….I, unlike your teachers……try to get my students to examine the facts they can support…and think for themselves…..that is the mark of an excellent professor! But, I also expect them to learn the lessons history has taught us.
A tactic you might use in your unsubstanciated rantings here!
Hoot! Hoot!
And…football is a GAME ! a diversion…..not a politcal party, not a religion…..and not just for liberals….most liberals are too busy out demonstrating somewhere to enjoy the game!
Hoot! Hoot!
bbl all….when the air clears….or the lizard sleeps tonight! Hoot! Hoot!
Chas,
Pittsburgh over Minnesota
Cincinnati over Chicago
New Orleans over Miami
New York Jets over Oakland.
Yes Sal, I got your votes. You only get counted once here. We don’t allow ACORN to get involved.
chas
Chas…lol
Jimmy, do you have a spell check? Sorry, it’s too much of a stretch to believe you are a college professor! Nice try though.
I’m not gonna get T’s picks in time today bummer
NO, you got that backwards Jimmy – Tea parties are attended mostly by right-wing fringers and FOX news!
Sorry Eileen, I just sent the results in.
chas
Vikings, Bengals , Saints and Jets Ali will stay one
John,
As I said to Eileen I just sent in the votes. You might have broken the tie between the Vikes and Steelers game.
chas
OK, my job here is done. Thanks to all for your input.
Have a great day and hope to see you all tomorrow.
chas
Well that really stinks. When I checked the blog this morning, there wasn’t a new one. So when I check in again, and the voting is closed. We usually have until around noon to get our picks in. Bummer.
Thanks Sal. I have been looking, darn cable won’t show any info on the games.
Chas,
Yes Sal, I got your votes. You only get counted once here. We don’t allow ACORN to get involved.
chas
Your a Funny Guy!
Liz…I don’t teach “spelling”…my secretary does that! Hoot! Hoot!
Sorry Sterling. I have deadlines to meet.
I try and hold on until the last minute but there are others who have jobs to do that require time, like the graphics. So the votes have to go in on time or they get short sheeted.
chas
and no one here believes you have ever had a class….or are working on a “paper”….we doubt that you are even a full time student….at least not at a real university Hoot! Hoot!
Colleen I think its National televised game you should get it on Fox,
Morning Sterling.
Hey Sal. How are you today? It’s chilly, chilly here today. Y
also…the ability to “spell” correctly is not a measure of your level of intelligence or your IQ….as evidenced by a great many of your posts here…..LOL
so take a day off from your spewing and liberal agenda….maybe even you could enjoy a few good ball games…..if you can follow what’s going on….LOL
bbl….time for lunch…..then some football!!! Hoot! Hoot!
Its all good Sterling, last few days have been nice, but its chilly here today.
Those two pilots need to be suspended or fired. I can’t imagine anything that they were doing, that was okay, that would explain them missing their mark by 150 miles. And if there was, why wouldn’t they immediately say what it was? Very fishy.

the Michigan legislature passed a bill to tax doctors to help fund Medicaid. Michigan was already losing physicians who are running short of patients here. I wonder how many more will leave us now?
LISTEN UP OBAMA AND DEMOCRATS IN CONGRESS:
Subject: FW: Wall Street Journal Report – Michigan
The State of Joblessness
The tragedy of Jennifer Granholm’s Michigan.
State lawmakers will soon face large budget deficits again, perhaps as much as $100 billion across the U.S. Here’s some free budget-balancing advice: Steer clear of the Michigan model. The Wolverine state is once again set to run out of money, and it is once again poised to raise taxes even as jobs and businesses disappear.
AS MICHIGAN GOES, SO GOES THE NATION!!!!!!!!!!!
Correction: Democrat controlled Michigan House of Representatives passed the tax on docs. Senate is controlled by republicans so we have to wait and see
Well, I guess that’s what we get for electing a Canadian-turned-American. Can’t wait to get rid of her. Politics in Canada are quite different. I judge everyone individually (because I’m independent) – and I think Granholm bit off more than she could chew as governor. She’s quite smart, but not a leader. She was a very good attorney general, however. I certainly don’t dislike her at all and I think that as a person she’s super, and she means well. She tried and failed.
See, I don’t dislike anyone – and that’s the difference between most of you and me.
Does anyone know if Ann Coulter is really a woman? Just wondering – she’s more hormonal than most women. Is she hiding a secret? I haven’t seen her much because I choose not to watch her spew her lies, filth, and character assassinations, but when she attacked Mike Huckabee, one of the few members of the GOP that I actually like and agree the most with – was just wondering if any of you think she represents GOP women. She seems to think she’s an expert on things she’s had no experience with (children, single mothers, liberals, etc.)
For someone who often spouts the view of the “inclusive party” there sure seems to be little room for any ideas but their own.
But what do I know compared to someone who judges people by today’s standards that lived over 200 years ago.
chas
You didn’t answer my question! Is Ann Coulter someone you admire and agree with? Do you condone the people in the GOP like her who attack others? Do you think it’s a good way to win people over to your point of view?
I agree with Huckabee about taxes, term limits and lots of other things. And he’s a very good person to boot. I think he would be ineffective though because corporations run the GOP and the country -for now. Huckabee and Ron Paul are the only conservatives who have it right and I don’t think they could be bought. What do you think? Or, are you on the side of the h-a-t-e mongers and partisans?
Well, chas – if you were in my class I’d have to fail you. My students are required to participate in discussions. It’s how they learn to communicate effectively – something you apparently never learned to do. I will say you are great at posting google eyes though.
Have a wonderful evening!
(I only post smiley faces)
FANTASTIC!!
Hawaii regulators have approved a Honolulu startup company’s plan to build the nation’s first tuna farm in waters off the Big Island.
Hawaii Oceanic Technology aims to create an environmentally friendly open ocean farm for bigeye tuna, a favorite source for sushi and sashimi that’s overfished in the wild. The project would also be the world’s first commercial bigeye farm.
The state Board of Land and Natural Resources voted 4-to-1 to give Hawaii Oceanic permission to install three large underwater cages for the tuna.
Unlike many tuna farms around the world which capture immature tuna and fatten them until they’re ready for harvest, Hawaii Oceanic expects to artificially hatch bigeye at a University of Hawaii lab in Hilo.
What was the name of the band that was a guest on the show? “Sister what?” They were good and I’d like to purchase some of their music. Thanks.
Transit system workers in Philadelphia voted to authorize a union strike Sunday, less than a week before the Phillies play their first home game of the World Series, but a transit spokesman said he hopes a deal can be concluded before then.
Willie Brown, president of the Transport Workers Union Local 234, said the 4,700 workers voted overwhelmingly to allow him to call a strike if negotiations with the Southeastern Pennsylvania Transportation Authority fail. Talks are slated to resume Monday.
Brown said he hoped a walkout would not affect the series, but he said workers have been without a contract since March and have not had a raise since December.
