Oh, wow, he’s not a baby any more.
I had trouble posting on Turned up to 11. IT nbetwork timed out and I hit submit a couple of times.
If the post is there several times, well, it was a good one, worth reading more that once, if I say so myself.
He’s figured out that this photo is going to come back to haunt him on prom night.

The bucket acts like a back-up diaper, no?

He’s so cute! But I concur, he’s definitely too concerned-looking to have actually gone Galt. Perhaps he’s determining just how Galt he wants to go? Is that even possible?
That’s in case he decides to stop withholding his productivity.

Samkitten is saying Santa was a tad stingy this year. He has grown so much. Before we know it, Suzanne’s baby will be that big and Sam and little Rjud will be dating.
Edit..I just saw R-juds comment..lol

Samkitten! Beautiful as usual! That boy ain’t withholdin’ nothin’! Especially the Cute!!
I actually do need to talk to somebody in ACS about something, but the chances that the call will be routed to you are microscopically small, and I can’t make the call until the taxpayer gives me her correct SSN (tried to order a transcript over the phone last week, and the phone system said I had an invalid SSN).

@burnspbesq: Can ya push it off a week? No seriously. I’m not even sure if TDS will be accepting requests during dead cycle since it won’t be able to pull it out of IDRS during the update cycle.
See what happens when a powerful Senator decides stuff needs to be in West Virginia?
I am feelin’ ya. Most of your IT infrastructure was manufactured when LBJ was Preznit.

@burnspbesq: On the one hand it’s virtually impossible to hack into or drop a virus on, so that’s nice. On the other hand playing on a computer system older than I am has its quirks.
Copied your comment 223 onto this thread, since it was good enough to be on a page with the incredible Samkitten.

I’m reading Freedom Flyers. The Tuskegee Airmen of World War II, by J. Todd Moye.
If you can find it at the library, give it a read. It is so well written.
I think that the media pretty much has neglected to cover what Obama says. They play a soundbite and that’s seems to be that.
The way events are covered by cable tv is awful.
Obama doesn’t do the 24 hour news cycle and has said so.
I’ve noticed people on blogs are not happy with the president because they think he didn’t speak out on an issue when he has spoken.
The federal agencies are functioning so much better than under Bush.
That makes a difference.
We have been though a horrible time in the past 30 years and digging out from it wqill take a very long time. The self superior attitude of the Guilded Agers is still prevalent and the media seems to go right along with it.
I am so glad you comment here. It makes me think about what’s what.
I hope I can soon stop writing like a grocery list.
Maude: agree with you re media. I always wonder how I am seeing a different press conference, with different points. It’s shameful, and either obtuseness or deliberate.

Wonderful picture. Growing like a weed. Pretty soon you’ll need one of those 5 gallon spackle buckets, then it’l be a bucket like a laundry hamper & then he’ll be driving his 4 door bucket off to college (sniff).
@Elizabelle: I concur with this comment, and add this: the 2010 elections were about revanchism by the media.
The Obama campaign didn’t use the traditional MSM in 2008 (meetups, announcing Biden by text message, ignoring Fox) and this was MSM’s chance to get revenge. They set the big losses narrative early, and the White House wasn’t coming down to their level so they could say what they wanted. If the White House did respond you never heard it.
Bad analogy time: having set the narrative for thirty years as a horse race, suddenly in 2008 MSM had to play a video game. And lost. 2010 was MSM reestablishing the horse race.

He’s adorable, but he looks too intelligently concerned (about something) to have actually gone Galt.

@gogol’s wife: He’s clearly concerned about where he’s going to put that productivity he’s withholding!

I’ll keep an eye on the geocaching web site to find out where in the woods his mom hides him.

Laettner says “Happy Holidays,” but she wishes Santa had brought her a Gimel Martinez doll to stomp on.

Good Lord they grow so fast. He’s such a big guy now and more heartbreakingly gorgeous every single new photo.
Also, too, New Year’s blessings on you all.
