Too cynical, but it is true about the pig.
Hey! There’s no such thing as too Cynical! Anyway, I thought this agenda was secret and would only be handed out to participants when they arrived through the secret entrance and gave the special handshake and secret squeal. How’d you come to be in possession of it?
In past years Minesweeper was the only thing keeping them sane until the House and Senate Leaders would turn on their green and red lights. With minesweeper retired and the Alpha closed I expect Union Street to be flooded with wild-eyed drunks tonight
This is a funny column, but I’ve lost it for the dopey doggerel of Todd Zaino, three of them?!, the last of which borders — no, encroaches — on racism. Maybe you want to limit this guy’s annoying, derogatory, obsessive-compulsive “contributions” in the spirit by which you recently vowed to police your site. Hasn’t your fondness for his quaint brand of time-suck run its course?
Yes!
I usually go through and knock them out.
Which is what I’m doing right now.
But it’s practically a full time job.
He apparently has nothing to do other than sharpen his grammmar school poetry skills.
“Anne Domenico” I couldn’t agree more ! Very well said. Todd’s 6th Grade rants need to go….Loved the Legislature Schedule.
Todd, any reference to your hijacking of CM’s site is only going to spur more and worse verse from you, I get it. Maybe Colin will weigh in on how he learned to stop worrying and love the Todd.
Funny, sad, but close enuff to the truth. One thought on what they might do during this session:
Since the people approved a state constitutional amendment for a spending cap on state government in 1993, it has never been implemented, due to the failure of the state legislature to pass the necessary enabling statute – which would provide definition to terms in the amendment such as “inflation”. If they are not too busy some decade, maybe they could do the people’s business – we are waiting for them to be responsible, but some of us will go to the grave waiting.
But Todd, what’s the point? Do you think it might be that it’s the limericks that are annoying, or the fact that they’re mostly irrelevant to the subject at hand? Do you really think that it’s only liberals who are annoyed?
And no, I’m not “bitter” or “a word snob” (previous charges),I really am curious.
My limericks have met Colin’s delete key
So much for speech that’s always free
Can you really give readers the boot
While the Courant’s short on the loot
Looks like McEnroe has blackballed little old me
Colin must not be thinking
Perhaps it’s what he’s drinking
Limericks die in cyberspace
A free speech disgrace
No wonder the Courant’s sales are a’stinking
Whenever a sixty-something year old says dude
Polite people consider that to be rude
When you can’t compete
You just delete
When did Colin become such a prude
The poems are not my cup of tea, so I simply move on. Editing or filtering them out does seem to be a bit childish. Wrestling and country music are on TV, I like neither, so I simply change the channel. Newspapers are suppose to be champions of free speech, right?!
