Dave2 Not even the LOLmonkey?!?!?!

hmm, I didn’t know it was Bush’s stimulus package. Actually, Nancy Pelosi sponsored it on 1/28/2008 and it’s cosponsored by folks such as Rangel and Barney Frank. From what I read, the Senate voted on it 81-16, then the House approved 380 to 34. Bush signed it and applauded it. I also read that “To get to the agreement, Democrats dropped calls for increases in food stamps and an extension of unemployment compensation. Republicans agreed to allow people who pay Social Security taxes but not income taxes to get the checks, sources said” which to me meant Democrats kept fighting to give away handouts while Republicans said “ok, even people who don’t pay any tax can also get a tax rebate”.

Hilly, thank you!

Absurdist, wow, and I’m like 300 miles away or something. When you moving back to Austin again?

Let’s see… which LOLcat made me laugh? Um… yeah… none of them. Not even a giggle. I just don’t get LOLcats.

And I’m sure that Bush’s stimulus package will make our strong economy even stronger as people rush out to buy imported Chinese goods! Genius!

martymankins, you have a good plan. If you buy Dave's stuff, you win anyway! My fave was hitman monkey, followed by i dont getz it. Avitable, *searching to see where I guaranteed something*, *scratching head to see what you're talking about*, *wondering if you're high on something*, *figuring that you probably ARE but that doesn't mean you don't have a point*, AHA! now I see. I only gave you 8 days. out of 12. Clever. Ok, now I'd like to redirect your attention to Dave's blog, where the actual 8 days took place. I'm just the chronicler, not the author. Raganator, well, they *were* just for you. Oh, and everyone else, too. Poppy, I do believe I first saw the "#1 lik mai butt" one on your site... but I could be remembering someone else. I do that sometimes, Yolanda. And congrats on the winnings, Vikki! I hope he sends you a cool shirt, Crystal. Dave2, aww, you failed to tell me which LOLcat actually made you laugh. Cuz one of them did, right? Or did you get anti-LOLcat software on your Leopard mac that prevents any LOLcat propoganda from showing up? And come on, the economy again? Should we expect your contests to coincide with stimulus packages next year? (ooh, on second thought, don't comment on stimulus package) I think I'd be fine with raising taxes as long as every American (no illegals!) gets some Blogography swag.

Last year it was over $1000. But because of the poor economy, I was forced to cut back.

Which you may read as… “Last year it was over $1000. But because the economy is in such great shape, I didn’t feel the need to be so excessive this year, and decided to cut back.”

And I love the palindromes, keep them coming!

Your 12 days were very funny, except I want 33% of my money back.
