Hey --
Another Sunday.
First up, we thank all who participated this edition which includes Dallas and the following:
The Third Estate Sunday Review's Jim, Dona, Ty, Jess and Ava,
Rebecca of Sex and Politics and Screeds and Attitude,
Betty of Thomas Friedman Is a Great Man,
C.I. of The Common Ills and The Third Estate Sunday Review,
Kat of Kat's Korner (of The Common Ills),
Mike of Mikey Likes It!,
Elaine of Like Maria Said Paz),
Cedric of Cedric's Big Mix,
Ruth of Ruth's Report,
Wally of The Daily Jot,
Trina of Trina's Kitchen,
Marcia of SICKOFITRDLZ,
Stan of Oh Boy It Never Ends,
Isaiah of The World Today Just Nuts,
and Ann of Ann's Mega Dub.
We thank them all. What did we come up with?
Ruth and C.I. brought this one as a nominee. We all quickly agreed.
If we'd finished Sunday morning, this wouldn't be one. It had enough votes but C.I. says, "No, pick something else." Except when she's tired and just wants to be done. That's how we got this one.
The silence will not be forgotten. Especially when the next big war comes.
Ava and C.I. tackle sitcoms and public affairs and a crazed reporter.
Did someone say crazy? CJR's actions last week demanded another parody. I (Jim) wish we had more time. Ava and C.I. weren't into this until they read what we had. They said, "Let us re-write the Gina Chon part." They more than rewrote it, they changed it completely and it is hilarious. After that, Betty and Wally went to work beefing up the other Erickya Fry Daddy piece.
Dona roundtables with Kat and C.I. about veterans bills in the Senate.
This came from a reader.
Roseanne gets this.
Is that really your answer to everything, David? How tired he gets.
The Senate discusses burn pits.
Veterans in college are still waiting for payments from the VA.
Repost from Workers World.
Mike and the gang wrote this and we thank them for it.
Peace.
-- Jim, Dona, Ty, Jess, Ava and C.I.
