keeping it semi real, promoting conservatives, taking potshots at fools, democrats other than Obama, liberals, the left, know it alls, the dnc, etc., reviews of models, pundits and blogs

  2. Just looked it up and found this -
    His personal memoir of Senator Barry M. Goldwater is scheduled to be published this spring, and at his death was working on a similar work on President Ronald Reagan.
    Looks like a must read for you, huh?

  3. Oh baby....I can't wait !! Did you know that WJBJr. also wrote some outstanding spy novels and that his son Christopher has also written some good novels? The guy had a good life into his 80's.

    Goodbye, Buckley.

  7. Hey, Barry! Seems to be some problem with my email - don't know if you got the last one I sent you - that is hilarious about Ed. I understand now why I got you two confused. I will definitely try to get Mos to go. It sounds like a blast to me. I will let you know when there is something concrete.

  8. Of course I'm hillarious Dugg. Barry is the one with at least a little in the brains department. I'm a lightweight. Between you and me, Barry's sister is hot which is the only reason I pretend to tolerate him.

  10. Here I honestly thought you were one and the same for a long time - mostly because when I blocked one of you once - the other got blocked as well - and your blogs look very similar. Just goes to show that the evidence can sometimes be misleading.

  11. Ed's piece of shit blog looks SIMILAR to mine? HAH !! Speaking of evidence misleading, I am reading a great book titled "Saucers".

  12. Well - I won't accuse you of ageeing with yourself anymore. Saucers, huh? Does it say they are all really government black ops?

  13. It's an interesting, entertaining and page turning novel. Don't get a swelled head, but the protagonist reminds me of a younger version of you. I'll mail it to you when I'm finished.

  14. The only things Ed and I agree on are strippers, the Eagles, Hillary sucks and that it is Obama time.

  15. Cool. I'll check it out. Someone told me I reminded them of the Big Lebowski once - that swelled my head until I saw the movie. I'll read saucers and the dude will be a psychopath.:lol:

  16. This one is flattering which is why I hesitated to mention it.

  17. Well, your lucky to have a cool inlaw to watch football with - my brother-inlaw is a traitorous Dolphin fan (from Maryland) who thinks McCain is the answer. We don't talk too much.

  18. He's originally a Bills fan but has lived here long enough to be converted. Give me your b - i - l's contact info and I'll make him an instant Obama convert. Ed is if anything more conservative than me. Do you and Mos play golf? Maybe we can squeeze some golf with a beer cooler into the DC junket. Ed and I will for sure. I wonder if we could get on one of those swanky government or military courses?

  19. The Bills? That explains a lot. Sorry, Barry - I've never golfed in my life. I've never grown up enough to take it up. My whole family was avidly into it but I was a blacksheep and didn't want to wear the funny clothes.
