Uh, sure, Rob. No problem.
Last night I had a dream that Rob sent me on assignment for Ricochet. It was my first reporting assignment in 10+ years. I wanted to get it right.
He sent me to interview Bridget Marquardt. But she looked like Holly Madison in my head because I don’t know who Bridget Marquardt is. (I must have seen her name somewhere.) I only know who Holly Madison is because she has a reality show. I've seen advertisements. Really.
Anyway, I took it at face value that this interview would be critical for drawing new readers to Ricochet. Rob said so. I wanted to make him proud. After all, I don't have any experience with either presidents or the Middle East, so I was determined to show Rob that I can, indeed, contribute significantly to Ricochet.
At some fancy place in Manhattan, I lied to get past the maitre d' to get into the private lunch area to meet with this Marquardt/Madison-type VIP. She seemed suspicious. She was wearing a big hat and lots of clothes. Sorry guys.
I tried to text Rob to have him feed me questions, but he was with Adam Freedman in the Yale Club and wasn’t responding to my texts.
Oh Lordy. I don’t want to know what this all means.

I think the dream means that you'll soon be living with Ellen Degeneres, but I could be wrong.

Too hilarious Ursula. I think Rob's enthusiasm on the podcast for Charlie Sheen's porn house must have something to do with your dream. It's been awhile, but I'm pretty sure there is no porn suite at the Yale Club. I'm pretty sure the dress code would make that impractical.

Ursula - it was Rob's excuse to get you to post gratuitous pictures of hot blondes on Ricochet. You really shouldn't put up with his manipulation. Or perhaps you should.
I'm a brunette guy myself.

So we are now resorting to "faster, funnier"---I am sure that one of our members will put on their Technicolor dreamcoat and provide the meaning.

I had a dream about Andrea Ryan once. Sadly, it wasn't that kind of dream. Also one that involved Peter Robinson. Thankfully also not that kind of dream. My subconscious is pretty lame.
We should start a collective Ricochet dream diary. The only thing worse than being dreamed about is not being dreamed about.

Who knew (gentlemen) vampires dreamt?

Re: Uh, sure, Rob. No problem.
Be thankful it didn't include Walt Frazier and/or Keith Hernandez. (REJECTED!)
However, that's not how Rob remembers the dream.
But it still may be time to bring on a staff shrink.

Surely Rob remembers looking a little smoother than that in his dream.

Re: Uh, sure, Rob. No problem.
Before the competition to make Ricochet rhyme with cheesecake consumes this site, it should be mentioned that Paul’s graphic post yesterday was not gratuitous like Ursula’s.
It amply connected the Wisconsin Democrats’ choice of sanctuary with their form of government: Oversized, money spent in duplication of what already exists, and the inevitability of another round of inflation.

Re: Uh, sure, Rob. No problem.
Let me stare into my crystal ball. In your dream, Rob Long represents your superego which is struggling between your interest in diligent work and your desire to wear big hats. The Yale Club represents your frustration with your latest phone bill. You really should look into getting a plan that includes a flat rate for texting. And Holly Madison is the manifestation of your subconscious desire to watch reality TV instead of Bill O'Reilly.
Or it could be a touch of indigestion. A couple of Tums ought to do the trick.

Sadly, all my dreams have no soundtrack and are subtitled in Linear B, in which I am not fluent

At last we found out what made those 200 people at the Mansion violently ill.

I'm still trying to wrap my head around the phrase "gratuitous cheesecake post like Ursula's" and somehow its just not happening.

Oh Lordy. I don’t want to know what this all means.
It means "watch the Follow indicator on your post to see if this is a winning trend"
Re: Uh, sure, Rob. No problem.
Ursula -- there is even less justification for your posting these photos than for my posting the photo of the damsel from the Tilted Kilt. The Obama administration will want to shut down Ricochet as a porn site.

Post a quote from Margaret Sanger underneath the picture and it works like kryptonite.

Re: Uh, sure, Rob. No problem.
I believe that Rob might say that Charlie Sheen should administer the Ricochet litmus test for what constitutes porn (perhaps from his porn house). My guess is that these photos, as delightful as they are, would not even come close in Mr. Sheen's august opinion. That said, Ricochet is beginning to look like The Daily Caller or Page Six of the NY Post.
