Were one to be out much of today hypothetically filming the first of his hypothetical internet teevee shows, would it kill some of you to maybe hypothetically wish him luck?
And mow his lawn?
While we’re at it, his Jeep ain’t likely to wash itself, either. Hypothetically speaking.
Someday it will be possible to mow the lawn or wash a car via the Internet, simply by clicking a mouse.
When that cday comes, I am so there for you.
Fortunately, the luck wishing thing is already possible via the Internet, so…
<click>
After all this time of visiting, I ought to understand posts like this by now. Hypothetically, I mean.
Turing = ahead, as in But yeah, sure, go ahead.
I told you before not to screw up, isnt that the same thing?
People take lawn mowing and car washing far too seriously. I can go for months without doing either; its all in learning how to tune other people out.
47 out of 50 Helens wish you luck.
Good luck on the lawn thing, Jeff.
Break a leg, Jeff! But not in a Kathy Bates/James Caan way.
Good luck, Mr. de Mille. And don’t do anything I wouldn’t do. By that I mean….don’t shoot anything that would allow a B-movie director like, oh, maybe Jane Hamsher, to turn me into a caricature.
I hypothetically wish you luck on washing your lawn from your Jeep, while being filmed.
It’s going to rain, again. My lawn isn’t getting mowed, and my car isn’t getting washed either. Misery loves company.
Instead of doing any work, I will offer a suggestion: Get a camera, tell them you’re making a movie, and the neighborhood kids should fall all over themselves to star in “Washing Jeff’s Jeep and Mowing his Lawn.”
Tell them it’s a new reality show. It’ll probably work, once.
I’m just grumpy because my back is still killing me from moving daughter and her furniture back to college. Youngest daughter, last year – I may decide to live.
yeah, of course hypothetically good luck.
As to the whole yardwork/jeep thing.. no problem, buddy. You wait right there, okay? I’ll be right back… Just wait there…. you’re not gonna go anywhere are you? nahh, I didn’t think so…
I don’t understand…aren’t we importing all those guys from south of the border to do things like mow lawns and wash cars?
Mow the lawn?! Why do you hate Mother Earth? Why do you destroy her sweet, sweet grass?
Good luck with the hypos today. Win one for the Gipper.
Hypothetical luck on the filming.
Are you supposed to wash cars?
Sure. Just drop the old Jeep by Kandahar and I’ll get ‘er done. Provided Johnny Jihad doesn’t turn it into and IED first, hypothetically.
I’m just looking forward to the day I can anchor my own segment on Goldstein TV. I plan to call it, “Sanity is Optional.” So, given my own selfish interests, I suppose it’s acceptable to wish you good luck. Not that I’m speaking in any sense other than the purely hypothetical. Naturally.
Nice try, hypothetically speaking, Jeff.

OOOOOhhh. I got a cooking segment all lined up! It,s called,’The Roadkill Cafe’ Each week we go out to the highway…………………………….
It seems like all the guys I know are so INTO their lawns that you have to mow it just right, and I wouldn’t want to mess with that. And if you wash a Jeep incorrectly, could you shrink it or anything? Once again, I wouldn’t want to risk invading an area out of my expertise and creating havoc.
TW: I really need more data before I could agree, even hypothetically. But I think I can go so far as to wish you luck … hypothetically.
I would do the ITV segment on car washing and lawn cutting. You could have a test on who does it better, illegals or “regular” Americans. Tell them to pretend they are getting $20 each.
Good Luck!
Hypothetically, have fun hypothetically storming the hypothetical castle!
TW: Once upon a time…they lived happily ever after.
Don’t stare at the hypothetical camera like a hypothetical deer in the headlights, huh?
And break a leg.
SB: almost
I gots everything I needs
I wonder if we could commission Andrew Sullivan to write something insightful about the hypothetical: “What if Jeff’s Jeep never got dirty?”
As a hypothetical intentionalist, I intend that your lawn be mowed and your Jeep cleaned. I intend it, it must be so. While we’re at it, I intend that your filming go well.
Mojo,
Aren’t those supposed to be hypothetical headlights?
Now is it a hypothetical jeep, or a real jeep, in olive drab and a 50 cal riding in back. There is a difference.
TW: If you didn’t walk around with a turtle head all the time, maybe you have a friend who would mow the lawn for you.
As a hypothetical intentionalist, I intend that your lawn be mowed and your Jeep cleaned. I intend it, it must be so. While we’re at it, I intend that your filming go well.
As a hypothetical reader of your hypothetical intentionalism, I know that what you really meant to say was, “When the moon is in the seventh house, and Jupiter aligns with Mars, a strange man will appear from the East bearing gifts of Tootsie Rolls and Chrysler mini-vans.”
I thought, hypothetically speaking , of course that lawn mowing and car washing were all pretty much moot after 8/22. Sure hope not tho…
Listen martinin boy (oops wrong blog). Listen, if the little guy doesn’t dance why should I mow your lawn or wash that jeep. Otherwise, hypothetically speaking good luck.
Always after me lucky charms!
Here, take ye a boxful for letting the gnomes run wild in the tall green grass.
Beggorrah, the lawn mower won’t start.
I think all of Jeff’s questions should be counterfactuals, like, “If I were a hot chick, would you hit on me?” Or, “If that t-shirt shop sold al-Zawahiri t-shirts, would you buy one?” Or, “What if Cheney and Bush staged the Twin Towers so that they could invade Afghanistan and Iraq, because they were mad that Saddam tried killing the President’s dad, and so that they could thereafter attack Iran and take their oil and prevent gay marriage from becoming legalized?”
Ofcourse I wish you good luck, hypothetically speaking.
With respect to the lawn and jeep thing, I really wish you good luck with this crowd, myself included.
I’m ready for my closeup now, Mr. deMille!
Break a leg!
Hypothetically, of course.
Good luck.
You[’re on your own with the lawn.
Mowing the lawn is not the act of a “classical liberal”, let it become a nature preserve returning to it’s natural state.
Washing a jeep is like paying $200 for jeans. You buy a jeep to go places. Dirty places. And you never have to say “I’m sorry your not clean and shiny”.
Concentrate on the filming. 100 years from now, no one will be looking at pictures from Goldstein’s pretty lawn or shiny jeep. But they may celebrate his culture changing literary contributions.
So, put all your energy into the important stuff!
I think you’re confusing classical liberalism with Rousseauvian romanticism.
Ask John Locke about progress (as opposed to proggress) and I think you’ll find he’s in favor.

Good luck with the lawn, and if you need help with the filming, just let me know.
nope, wouldn’t kill me.
I don’t mow my own lawn. and thanks to water rationing here, i’ve found out that if you don’t water the lawn it doesn’t grow so much.
Hypothetical, eh? Hmmmm. OK, got it.
“Would luck!”
Protein Wisdom mentioned on FARK
(in a thread about “penis slapping”)
As long as you hypothetically have the camcorder out, you might want to find a hypothetical trust-fund millionaire who wants to run for Congress and hypothetically peep in his window…
Whatever happened to the Deadbeat neighbor?
Well, just suppose I did wash the Jeep and mow the lawn.
Remove the lens cap.
Dammit.
Well, good luck, but for the other stuff I would need really long arms.
Lawn mowing and Jeep washing are two subjects that truly need some postmodernistic deconstruction.
Break one!
and where were you Christmas of 1996 Mr. Goldstein??
also how did you know the bonus amount?
hypothetically that is .
You people in Mayberry err…. Colorado are sure good at that law enforement stuff.
Let the armadillo do it. He can pay off his gambling debts that way.
Having been away this weekend, I return to hypothetically retroactively wish you good luck!
Astroturf, baby! That’s what I’m doing. The hell with this lawn thing. Of course, the white stripes and the yard markers look a little weird, but talk about low maintenance. Yeah, that and a DeLorean. Stainless steel, just a touchup with steel wool, and you’re good to go!
TW: Wrote. I can’t believe I worte this!
BECAUSE OF THE HYPOTHETICAL!!!
Would that you had luck.
I live in a condo, they come and cut the grass, trim the verge and shovel the snow. The guy from the detailing shop picks up my Jeep and returns it once it is clean. Get with the program.
Oh yeah, hope you had the best of luck.
What’s up with this flinkin’ IMac? How do you copy and paste on this critter? It’s really starting to piss me off…
Lost Dog,
Did you purchase the copy and paste module? I hear that there are some reasonably good ones available as shareware, but be careful: some of them have compatibility issues. Kinda like that creature who got herself roasted at Ace’s over the weekend.
I hope you didn’t get arrested forimpersonating a journalist.
I guess this kid didn’t know Anna isn’t there any more.
My hypothetical curiosity is getting the hypothetical better of hypothetical me.
…which would be the me that’s in the black box with Schrodinger’s cat.
Ya know, it really stinks in there.
Lost My Cookies–
Lots of people in the MSM impersonate journalists every day, and get paid pretty well to do it. Give the kid a break, I say.
Holy crap! Tomorrow is the end of the world (or some degree thereof)! I almost forgot.
How do you find the time to do your usual “commenting” with so much to do and so little time? Shouldn’t you guys be at the grocery store for TP, bread and milk for your bunkers, or something?
Or, was all that Aug.22 attack fear just the usual bullshit, only this time so obvious even you guys will have to admit it was bullshit?
Looks like maybe Jeff got beaten into a stupor by some youngsters at the Orange Julius. Hey, you know what? At least he had the courage to get out of that Baghdad hotel.
Well I guess I’m off to invent the self-washing jeep. God-damned people can’t do a thing for yourselves, can you?
Shouldn’t you be hiding under your bed in your mother’s basement or something?
Dan,
No offense intended, but without Anna Benson around, I just can’t see anyone getting that excited about the Mets.
Thank god he didn’t have a White House press pass.
Or an 8 inch GAY PORN COCK OF LIES!
david,
can’t take it with you…
TW: anyone seen my tequila?
Congrats and good luck. Don’t try to look cuter than Mary Katharine, just be yourself.
Considering it’s still in the future it seems premature to declare the 22nd uneventful.
In any case, has anyone ever threatened you with bodily harm? I mean, said something to the effect “I’m going to kill you”? Did you take them seriously?
Or is it your position that we should not take the government of Iran seriously? If so, why not?
So davey’s reduced to drive-by trolling, then?
RC, dude`s gotta be busy, posting the same shit, everywhere. So many blogs, so little time…
