President's State of the Union speech is on tonight at 9 p.m. We'll be playing the Drinking Game and thinking of you. What's your chosen buzzword?
LB... Times, like these, I'm glad, I'm working nights.
Freedom is always good to go with.
Others:
Bipartisan
Cooperation
Together
Brave Men and Women in our Military
Strong / Strength
The American People
Partners in Liberty / Freedom
Mission
Completed
Success
Secure / Security
Act now.
As long as I am President
Withdrawal would mean disastrous results
But for generations to come
Hard Decisions
The Will of the American people and those who love freedom.
Thank you and G-d Bless the United States of America...
Ira : can guarantee the last one (Thank you and God Bless the United States of America).
If I only had to pick one, I would always go with Freedom!
Also good odds on History / Historic.
Ira
I am betting on the word “together”.
MM .... From the Washington Post -Ventnor is showing the State of the Union Address on 13 flat-screen televisions and offering food specials all night. But what sounds most promising is the sports bar's State of the Union drinking game. Before the speech, everyone picks a word -- "terrorists," "Iraq" or, if you're feeling brave, "freedom." Every time it passes the president's lips, you get $1 shots. http://www.nytimes.com/ref/washington/20070123_STATEOFUNION.html

The Mamas & the Papas - California Dreamin' Ira,
I wanted to do this last night but didn't have the opportunity. R.I.P. Denny Doherty. I've always loved his lead vocals with the Mamas and the Papas (which The New York Times Obit aptly described as a "clear, friendly tenor"). Yes, Monday, Monday is still my fave. I remember being at a party at Eliot's (Bay Parkway Palace) where he played If You Can Believe Your Eyes and Ears in its entirety and asking him the name of the album. It was just that incredible.

Vote For Me, Free For All
An excerpt from the TV Guide. Ira, here's your chance to audition!
"Filming should start this spring on a remake of The Prisoner, the iconic British sci-fi serise that ran on US TV in 1968. A new Number six is yet to be cast but there could be a part for Patrick McGoohan who played the original title role of a captive ina surreal village. AMC also hopes to run the original 17 episodes. We plan to treat it with the respect it deserves promises AMC general manager Charlie Collier. So many of its themes including the battle of the individual against the system are relevant today."
