    Obamulaganda.

    In studio???

    If so, keep an eye out for Roger Hedgecock lurking around the studio. Distract him by asking him about his silly last name and his being oustered as mayor, then kick him in the nuts.

      next time, demand that they bring back Jack Rice. Or Reich. Or however you spell it. I can never tell. That guy was awesome.

    When did reason start keeping time according to the Catholic Church?

    1. Shrike   16 years ago

      I intend to launch a thorough investigation into this christfaggotry.

  4. C-Dog   16 years ago

    Did a good job and Chris Reed's show is really one of the best radio shows out there.

    I live on Padre time.

    Speaking of baseball, without Kendry Morales, are the Angels slow and lethargic like Obama's economy or what?

    And talk about your ups and downs!

    ...it's goin', it's gone! Grand slam, Kendry Morales...!

    *snap*

    Talk about your tough breaks. At least you got Matsui. ...and I'm sure he'll hover somewhere above .250 before the season's over, you'll see.

    An explosive investigative series published in the Washington Post today begins, "The top-secret world the government created in response to the terrorist attacks of Sept. 11, 2001, has become so large, so unwieldy and so secretive that no one knows how much money it costs, how many people it employs, how many programs exist within it or exactly how many agencies do the same work." Among the findings: An estimated 854,000 people hold top-secret security clearances. More than 1,200 government organizations and nearly 2,000 private companies work on programs related to chanel sunglassescounterterrorism, homeland security and intelligence in 10,000 locations. We speak with one of the co-authors of the series, Bill Arkin. [includes rush transcript]ed hardy shirt
