Happy Very Full Day – or Black Friday, depending on your view of the world.

Today on The O Word on BlogTalkRadio we chatted about a whole bunch of different stuff. I think I scared off one listener, by jumping between topics and either laughing uproariously or being very serious depending on the topic. I know we had fun with some odd news stories, and the Loon and prying1 added their two cents. Way-too-brief visits from AnnieB and Nikki. We checked the genderanalyzer for some of our favorite blogs – and boy, was the analyzer off!

See you next Friday!

Thank you for stopping by, In GOD We Trust, God bless you all, listen to The O Word on BlogTalkRadio, Wear Red on Fridays, and support Warriors for Innocence!

So – The O Word on BlogTalkRadio started out with no chat but that fixed eventually and the show went on. Loon, AnnieB, prying1, Reverend Don, kershaw and sumahe joined us on the phone and in the chat room. What did we talk about? It might be easier to list what we DIDN’T talk about! Happy Thanksgiving (next week!) – Christmas Cards for Heroes – CPT Rob Yllescas – Dryer Fun – Adopt-A-Military-Family – Victory in Iraq Day – T-Mobile – Samantha West – Arizona’s Governor Napolitano to be Homeland Security Cabinet Member – The Messiah at Grace Presbyterian Church on Nicholas Road in Temeculah 12/07/2008 @ 1600 hours – and much more hilarity than should be allowed. Ever. No, really.

^{(Also, the host of the show is exposed as a technological weenie when he can’t figure out it’s his own web site that is providing the audio loop that is driving him nuts.)}

Two things: I have a dentist appointment this morning, so the round up will be interrupted, and second, how do you like my signature on the end? Cool, huh? The scanner portion of the all-in-one we bought to replace the two printers and fax and flatbed scanner is working really well!
