Lame Duck Day

When : Always February 6th


Hey, the day is everything it's quacked up to be. Lame Duck Day is set aside to give recognition to people whose tenure in a position is running out.

Okay, so you are probably thinking that a "lame duck" is a duck with some sort of injury. If only that were the reason for the day! Rather, a "Lame Duck" by human, definition is a person who is in a position of some kind, and will soon be "shown the door". The best example is an incumbent politician who lost in the November elections. They usually remain in office until the beginning of January. It also applies to leaders, managers, etc, who are retiring or whose term of office is up.

During the interim period, a Lame Duck is usually far less effective, and frequently ineffective (probably won't notice any difference). After all, loyalties will soon shift. It's impossible to rally the troops to one more cause or project.

On Lame Duck Day...

If you are a Lame Duck: Enjoy those final days. Reflect upon you failures, and the money and rewards the position provided to you. Kick back a little and disappear today, and in the remaining days.

If you know a Lame Duck: Supporters should provide recognition and sympathy. Non-supporters can carve up the Lame Duck and serve him up on a platter.

If you are a duck and you are lame, seek medical attention or Dick Cheney to put and end to your suffering.

Happy Lame Duck Day to Tom Potter. Go home and hang out with your young lovely wife - who I used to hang out with when she was even younger.

I sure as heck hope this isn't Lame Duck Ash Wednesday!

Bob Knight -- Time to throw some chairs at nursing home attendants.

Bernie Giusto needs to be shown the door - right down the stairs, to his shared cell.

When is somebody going to grow "some hair on their pouch" (Thanks for that one. LS, can't stop LMAO) and get rid of the lying ass-clown?

Shared cell with Ted Kulongosky, and Hardy Myers!

Really? While technically they may very well indeed be "lame ducks", I don't see either of these two becoming ineffective anytime soon.

Mrs. M's example is a perfect lame duck. Bernie needs to get back in the chauffering business so he can hook up with some bigwig's wife.

No, Vern, skeezy Bernie deserves to bunk with the biggest, meanest psychopaths in the basement, preferably in a cell built for 2 that now holds 4. Even better if they're cold-turkey-ing from meth.

Ward Weaver maybe? But he's probably off meth by now.

That's exactly who I was thinking of, but I couldn't remember his name...Bernie would confess to everything to cut a deal to get away from him. He'll then become somebody's bee-yotch.

Hey Merkin, don't be such a stranger! Your *plonks* are sorely missed when you are not around!

Jan 20, is the last day of President Bush's term of office. We simply rename January to Nixonary, Jan 20 never comes.

Thank God!

We simply rename January to Nixonary.

WTF???

After a huge stiffy, Herb's frantically drafting paperwork and working the phones calling his congresspeople and Huckabee!

Okie and Herrbocrite are so perfect for each other.

Allright, I'll tell everyone about this bad dream/nightmare I had one night about a week ago.

The Constitution is changed, and the election winner is Bush.

That's when I woke up.

Screaming?

And you found out the NIGHTMARE was true! 8 years of DUHbya!
