They suspect ralph was suffering from some sort of Mental Illness. Approving Mental Health improving meant ath Health Services is one aspect of gun safety on the table. Another is universal background checks. A proposition with tremendous support from everyone except the nra and at least not now because back in 1999, nra executive Vice PresidentWayne Lapierrre was in favor of universal background checks and a clip of that was used in an ad that ran during the super bowl. We think its reasonable to provide mandatory instate criminal background checks for every sale at every gun show. No loopholes anywhere for anyone. America can do this. For us.

Madonna pulled the plug. Beyonce was so good. Stephanie all right. Should we get to beyonce . Stephanie we had a whole sexist beyonce thing at my house. Go ahead jacki. What do you mean . Stephanie you do yours ill do mine. Ill preface this by saying shes a beautiful woman and shes a very good dancer. If youre trying to get rid of the stigma the question of whether or not she can sing, it would be good to actually sing. And i dont think she did a heck of a lot of singing last night. She did a lot of speaking. Stephanie i thought the production was good. The sound. The sound sucked. I thought the entire production, the entire show was phenomenal. She didnt sing. I look at it as a giant performance rather than just this part of the singing or just the part of the set or just the stuff want to know what the sexist debate was . A couple of the guys were saying things about how big her thighs were. My friend katherine said she just had a baby. Her thighs have always been big. In Single Ladies, her thighs were huge. Nobody criticized her there. Stephanie guys who are like barcalounger, look at her legs. It takes muscles to dance like that. Please. Were going to talk about the size of beyonces thighs . Please. Stephanie shes beautiful. I would rather talk about her lack of singing. But more importantly did she flash an illuminati sign. Those are only on your web site. Thats on yahoo. Stephanie whats an illuminati sign . I dont know. Giant headline conspiracy. Stephanie for an entire group of people that did not watch football, that was totally holding against the San Francisco 49ers guy in the end zone toward the end wasnt it . Holding call. Thats what jim harbaugh said. He was right. I have no idea. I was on my way home at that point. Stephanie you could see it in the slow motion replay. He was totally holding the guy. I left my party right after the lights came back on. Of some us had to get up for work in the morning. Stephanie jim left my house moments ago. Jim can confirm right .

Stephanie nobody cleaned my kitchen. I got that. Did you pick up some leftover food off the counter and bring it in to eat . Stephanie no, i gave it to jim and everybody at the party because i still had a rumbly tumbly. I was like oh, i should not have had that pizza. Both of you missed our happy hour. I know. All three of you missed our happy hour on friday. Stephanie it is taking a week for me to get over my Food Poisoning. Ive had the rumbly tumablies.

Wait a minute. Stephanie shes a lady on the street and a freak in the bed is what im guessing. I was going to say did you want to say that on National Radio . Stephanie im just guessing. Well talk about the apron and the pearls and the stripper pole. She did have the little gold slipon shoes. That was very appropriate. Stephanie she did. I think that should be her stripper name. Hot brie. Stephanie well ask her. I missed cheese. Stephanie ask jim about Melissa Fitzgeralds pole dancing. A great weekend was had by all. Woohoo. [ applause ] stephanie jacki cheated on me with another Super Bowl Party somewhere. I did. I had an affair. Stephanie all right. It was satisfying. There were tacos.
