Spin Cycle: Elections, Rocks and Internal Organs

This week's Spin, short and sweet again, but I'm working on something big.

From Obama's acceptance speech:

And I would not be standing here tonight without the unyielding support of my best friend for the last 16 years the rock of our family, the love of my life, the nation's next first lady Michelle Obama.


Me: You are the rock of this family, baby. You're my stone.

Supreme Leader: Like a kidney stone?

Me: Exactly.

    I loved that speech BTW. And now my kids want a puppy.

  2. I liked the speech, and I'm pretty sure you were supposed to offer to 'rock' her world.

  5. Ahhhh...this totally answers the question of exactly why she's the Supreme Leader.

  15. One time, someone told me that I was sort of like a tumor. I just grew on them over time. Then I slapped him. Then I divorced him. Then I married his brother. Then at a Nicaraguan wedding a terrorist shot us and left all of us for dead. Wait, I think I'm confusing my life with an episode of Dynasty. Thanks for the 100!! I was thrilled and laughing all the way to work reading your comments. :) You rock. You rock especially hard when your inebriated.

  20. I meant, "right there."

    It sounded like I was using some obscure canadian colloquialism.

  21. I think Jen M. really DID mean "rught". I think it is a neo-liberal slam they use in Cali.

  23. I've HAD a kidney stone, Captain. You'll need to pick another kind of stone if you want to send your lady a compliment. Just saying. And yes, I've got Obama's speech on TiVo and I've watched it about ten times.
