Leave It to Carol!

Carol's Full Metal Jacket Reach Around:

Leave it to Beaver was an overly romanticized look at family life in the late 50s and early 60s. Ward and June Cleaver are raising two sons: Wally and Theodore, who everyone calls by the nickname "Beaver."

Beaver is a kid who gets into trouble usually because one of his friends talks him into it. It is then that his father Ward has to help straighten the situation out by gently but firmly teaching Beaver the lessons of life.

Overly romanticized? Yet bet. The Beaver still brings smiles to my face.

Common Cents strongly believes in common sense and points out that Congressman Barney Frank is up to his old tricks, this time with more power. He wants to “roll the dice” again with Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac. Good gweef, Bahney. You’re such a putz.

Cyclops Guy over at Eye of Polyphemus has a little cheesecake for the cheesecake lover in you.
The lovely Fausta injects some humor into the carbon offsets scam by informing us that shallow breathers and couch potatoes will reap a goldmine from those who “spew out earth-threatening gas at an alarming rate. Are you reading this, Trog?

Kathy Shaidle’s Five Feet of Fury offers some valuable information for the time zone challenged.

A courageous woman flips the bird to the president and the Founding Bloggers has the pic.

Carlos, my dear, I considered not mentioning your blog this week because you highlighted the score of a certain baseball game involving a certain team that I love. It’s only because you’re so darn cute and you stole my heart some time back that I have decided to be the better person and throw you some linky-love.

Hammer Time for health care? Legal Insurrection declares a Michael Dukakis “kah-kah” boo boo.

The Astute Bloggers have dubbed Dear Leader a sociopath who thinks maybe our elderly would be better off not having needed surgery and take a painkiller instead. Heartless. Simply heartless.

“Common sense and a sense of humor is the same thing, moving at different speeds. A sense of humor is just common sense, dancing.” The TrogloPundit could not resist firing up his 1953 IBM 8088 processor with 256KB of memory [he is a caveman after all] to download some “Thriller” videos. A day later he was able to dance to them.

Monica, not of Lewinsky fame, but Conyers of Detroit City Council President Pro Tem fame is in a weeeeeeeeee bit’o’dookie and the blogprof has every sordid detail over at his place. What’s that you say? Couldn't have happened to a more deserving politician. Right you are!

A delusional Democrat who’s lying? WHAAAAAAAT? Trac-A-‘Crat drops a dime on Lies And The Lying Liars Who Tell Them.
