And the Boss sayeth:
" Puck is just outside our view watching our foolish attempt at being astute. Ridge was chuckling to himself ...."
Now, is that one step away from saying that this is all a contrived Hollywood movie, or what?
Lights, camera...ACTION!
It's Cecil B. Debush and a cast of thousands bringing you...WAR!
Ridge has quite plainly stated there presently is no cause for panic or over-reaction. I trust he will let us know when those do become appropriate.

Damned good thing, too . . . panic is so exhausting, i am so lazy, and i would rather not panic until it is appropriate . . .
but will Ridge be over-reacting when he tells us?
I hope he includes instruction in appropriate panic. I'd hate to overreact and engage in inappropriate panic by mistake.
I just heard this morning that the first ending to "Dr. StangeLove" after Slime Pickens rode the "bomb" down was a cut to the war room where a "pie throwing" fight was ongoing. What a wonderful end to this administration! The Dr. StrangeLove Administration!
Inappropriate panic is just so gauche. I mean, are we a civilized country, or what?
Appropriate Panic Guidelines:
1.) It is poor panic etiquette to take every single grocery item on a shelf. Be sure to leave at least one item.
2.) While barricading one's door and guarding it with a rifle is perfectly acceptable, we ask that you not randomly fire said weapon, as that will likely raise panic to inappropriate levels.
3.) While you may scream, run around in circles, and rend your garments, public copulation is frowned upon, even if you are a virgin.
That would be a "Bend over and Kiss your ass goodbye" alert
Thanks for the tips, Sozobe. I'm gonna write them down and keep them handy if and when the official call to panic is issued. Wouldn't want to be inappropriate!
Sozobe: i have your instructions printed out and now looking for a fridge magnet. (btw about those virgins?)
Virgins, panic-stricken or otherwise, are vastly over-rated in IMO, dyslexia ... probably wise of the Ancients to choose virgins for sacrifice; no point diminishing the ranks of the cooperative fun-lovers, and the practice of virgin sacrifice no doubt lent weight to arguments promoting the wisdom of curing the condition of virginity

good point but i was just wondering who they were and why?
I heard they are about to implement a color code system for panic levels. That inorder to make sure that the appropriate level is being observed.
Soz, god you crack me up . . .
hahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahah
PLOP ! ! ![/color]
oh hell, i think my ass just fell off . . .
Suggested color codes for panic levels and attendant appropiate activities:
Puce: Hysterical sobbing, gnashing of teeth and vacant stares.
Teal: Screaming, running in circles and cutting people off in traffic.
Vermilion: Looting, pointless arson and general ennui.
Ebony: Gibbering, watching Barney reruns and humming "Eve of Destruction."
and the all popular color
Transparent: Ridge via Bush empty logic.
billw: to be accurate its Ridge via Ashcroft via Bush
Lets not forget Cheney, the administration's eminence grise...
