Did someone say sammiches?
SHHHHH! Jon’s having a caffeine rush. Tread carefully . . .
Good man.
Paraphrasing our Dear Comrades of the New Left:
I don’t care if Gordon Ramsey made it, if the sammich in question requires a double-jointed jaw for consumption then it is a failure to piecefully assemble.
Also, don’t build a sammich which is reminiscent of a short-rib that’s been broiled for three minutes in between two week-old baguettes.
Texture is good, some tug is fine, but for the love of Dagwood, if the meal requires a cleaver it ain’t no sammich, no matter how tasty it is.
Hey Jon, you used to call into the local AZ conservative morning radio show on Fridays with something nearly resembling regularity. And when you did, they pitched Ricochet. We need more of that. I know the local line-up has changed on that station, but is there any likelihood you could revive that gig? It gave the site great exposure. Heck, you could even guest host and I promise I’d call in. Several times. I can do many voices and accents.
Sammiches.
That guy swanning around New York..haha.
Ricochet is the best place to understand the politics of America and, even though I am not American, it is a welcoming crowd, Most of the time. Right now they are calling me a Leftie in the Member feed so I need to go and get that sorted out.
Come clean, Jon. You’re trying to do Claire out of her raise.
Ho-ho! Hey-hey!
We’re gonna be your boss some day!
Yea, but without the open bar… :(
I was just looking at this T-Shirt EJ. But pink? Really?
Pinko
You can have it in any color you want. And if you order now you can add the code STPADDYSDEAL for 17% off. That, of course is valid until Tuesday at 11:59PT while we celebrate
St. Patrick’s Daymy Marine’s 19th birthday.Did someone say “open bar?”
I’m taking a break from swanning to perch here to say, Yes! I agree! Please join us!
It’s Rob’s Swanning Song, which is much different from a swan song.
Not bad, Jon. Not bad. Amused me, I will admit. You even got me to share it on Facebook. So you may have won this round on literary grounds. Now, let’s see if you win on points. Data will be in by tomorrow, you know.
But man, you’ve got me in a corner. I can’t really say, “No one should join Ricochet today. It’s the only way to prove my pitch was better.”
Okay. No “I” in team. Maybe it’s a cliche for a reason, not an amazing insight. Revise the theory.
Thinking. Thinking.
[Time elapses.]
I’ve got it.
TEAM AMERICA, [REDACTED] YEAH.
To all you lurkers reading the Main Feed, c’mon in. The water’s fine.
Beisdes, the Member Feed is where it’s at around here.
Yeah I was in Manhattan a few months ago and didn’t see Rob anywhere…. and I was looking! I suspect he is still in his house in Cali with the lights off and the shades drawn….
That’s why I spell it “teaim.”
Thanks, Doug! Actually Jim Sharpe brought me along with him to his new nationally syndicated show which is just starting out. I appear every Friday at about 6:20 ET.
There is a “me” in team . . .
There is an “I” in “win.” But “U” isn’t.
Jon,
Now let me get this straight, for less than $5 per month I get:
1.) As much Mansplaining as an Evil Patriarch of the Phallocracy as I can do.
2.) Shoot as many endangered baby otters for entertainment as I want.
3.) Sammiches.
4.) Start as many strike busting riots as I can.
5.) Enjoy the fine old art of snake handling. Perhaps for me and a date.
6.) Be semi-polite and avoid ugly trolls that start flame wars.
7.) Sacrifice goats to the Koch Brothers.
Jon, let me think about this for moment….hmmmmm….YES, I’LL DO IT!!!
Regards,
Jim
