Chatterbox: Can anyone out there confirm there is no school tomorrow in Coeur d’Alene? At least for Lake City High School? Sonny-boy texted us with that news as he’s on his way to Wallace for a basketball game. Any insight would be greatly appreciated.
DFO: An e-mail was circulated throughout the Coeur d’Alene School District this afternoon, informing staffers that schools will be closed Tuesday. This will allow school officials to assess the possible threat posed by snow load on school buildings. Shinie notes that Lakeland School District already has announced that schools will be closed tomorrow, too. Also closed will be North Idaho Christian.

I'd like to ask something of the readers here, readers who have gotten world class insults and fantastical journeys through a synaptically over-sparking mind FREE from me and that is to vote for my blogger pal “Blue Girl in a Red State” (although Ohio is now blue) for best diarist. With your help she can whip Dooce's commie loving ass. PLEASE do this for me.

DFO could you post this sad and desperate request out front for my good pal and one of the sweetest women in the world “Blue Girl in a Red State”?
Vote for her blog as Best Diarist and she will win with all the awesome voting power of HBO! She will cream that commie Dooce. If you love America you will do this.

Christie could you take some laptops down to the jail and ask some of the inmates to vote for my pal “Blue Girl in a Red State” as best diarist? She cares about criminals and their reintegrative needs, unlike that hang em high blogger Dooce.

Bob, I might suggest you post a link to her site directly, I voted for her as well. Who knows? Perhaps we're not as pathetic as you think. She seems quite worthy.

She got my vote. What do I get?
Seriously, I think we all understand the sacred duty and responsibility of voting every time we get the chance. The blog says we're supposed to vote every 24 hours. Kinda like during the last election.

I gave her one tonite, Bob, and will try to remember to do it every day 'til the voting ends. Not that your recommendation isn't enough…. it really is…. but, I read some of her stuff, and quite like it. I will go back again. There are some wild and interesting people in Blogdom, I learn from each one. jantri

She's a top flight blogger, even linked from the awesome James Wolcott's Vanity Fair blog. She's just a sweetie.

She has a great sense of humor which I cherish more than the reference to RED/BLUE. After all, humor is not political, well at least it doesn't have to be. I voted for her also. (Bob, this campaign doesn't get you knickers time, does it?)

Yah know, Bob, I think I have it figured out for the new year. Fist, You are arguably the top intelligence, notwithstanding some liberal quirks, but that leaves the sex symbol wide open. I humbly accept that honor, for which I have earned honestly through the years.

Herb! Knickers time? She's a lovely married woman in Ohio who I've only corresponded with via the magical pixie dust of the internet! Dear God, perhaps you are our *sex machine* here!

I dunno, Bob, Dooce is pretty darn funny…

Dooce IS funny, even if she subliminally advocates for the overthrowing of the American govt, and she's won every damn blog award possible and makes over a million dollars a day from her blog. It's time for a change. It's time for a real American to win a blog award.

I've seen Blue Man Group. They're not from this planet yet strangely familiar.
All blues must be checked at the airport and if they make any untoward, or very toward, or any other prepositional comments regarding security they should be deboarded or water boarded or something.

I accept the honor, having honestly earned it in the many years of running after fast women. I have, however, changed my strategy. You see, chasing fast women after you have slowed way down, is a waste of time. Hereafter, I am chasing slow women. As Taryn pointed out to me recently, both slow of gait and a little on the slow side mentally would certainly help a lot. An attractive woman in a walker, for instance would be just about right.

Herb, I was feeling blue and Sis is making me worried about being waterboarded, but you made me smile.
Actually, most ladies are moving mighty slow due to icy, snowy streets. Now might be your chance. You do know how to ice skate, don't you?
