From two regular readers in Nashville, TN.

Merry Christmas to all of you!

Merry Christmas Heather, Jon, Leta, & Former Congressman Chuckles!

M E R R Y C H R I S T M A S !
I know you do this on the holidays with the Senator - but did you umm enjoy making Chuck pose in costume just a little bit more this time? Maybe due to the Emily obsession? Lol

Enjoy

Merry Christmas to all! And healthy and happy 2005 to the whole family.

Very Merry Christmas!

Merry Christmas to your entire family from Minnesota, including GEORGE!

Oh, and I must thank you for I now have "You're a mean one, Mr. Grinch" going through my head. Chuck looks a lot like Max in this pic.

Happy Holidays to you all...

The stoic gub of the former congressman is precious...

Merry Christmas, Blurbodoocery!

Hey - at the risk of sounding all grinchy, I noticed that the same "first" thing was going on this morning as every other morning. I ask you, what sane person is on the internet waiting for Dooce to post at 7:30 Christmas morning? Huh? Yowza, Heather, you've got a serious grip on the blogosphere!

Merry Christmahanukwanzakah!!
(And, Happy Festivus two days late...)
Dooce, DJ Blurb, Frog Baby and Former Congressman Chuckles, I hope you all have a beautiful holiday and get everything you've wanted.
Dooce, we want pictures of all the loot, and of Leta eating the wrapping paper.

Lots of Holiday Love,
Mary, Hubby, Baby James and Caine the Destroyer.

From Atlanta, Ga.,- Merry Christmas to the Armstrong family and all of Dooce's loyal readers!

Merry Christmas from a long time reader. I hope you and your family have a wonderful Christmas!!

Merry Christmas to the House of Dooce-o-mat, from a longtime reader/lurker. I think I am in love with your dog and his antler head.

dooce is not the only one...

God bless ye merry gentleman.

all chuck wants for christmas is a shiny pair of neuticles.

Is it just me, or are the comments no longer numbered? Not that it matters; everyone will still vie for the top position, but I wonder if that's a result of all the bloodthirsty racing to be #1.

This doesn't mean I personally have a problem with it- I think it's funny. But still, the mind boggles.

MichelleBrady--you are #79, so yes, the Comments are numbered.

Merry Christmas! to all the Armstrong and Boone kindred spirits from a little house on a cold, cold--but no snow, on the Illinois prairie.

Did you get the silly dog shoes to go with?

Merry Krotzmacher, everyone!

Merry Christmas!!

OMG! that is so fuckin' cute!!!

Merry Christmas to you too, chuck.

I hope Leta's first Christmas was a joy for all of you. Merry Christmas to you and yours.

I hope your first Christmas with Leta was magical, a fitting start to a lo-o-ong lifetime of happy and blessed Christmases for your sweet family!

Oh sweet brave Chuck. I hope you got belly scratches for that one.

Merry Christmas Dooce, Jon and Leta- and to all my homies.

Word.

Merry Xmas Jon, Heather & Leta! Love, Jen, Steve & Bug.

Merry, merry, merry super happy!

I swear that Chuck needs his own television program. That face tells a thousand stories. Of course most involve give me that Pop Tart, but still.
Merry Christmas.

Chloe, bitter much?

Merry Christmas Jon, Heather, Leta, and Chuck!

-from boston's biggest DOOCE fan :)

Last, last!! Could it be that I'm really last??!! Merry Christmas, everyone! Remember to sing "Happy Birthday, Dear Jesus" today... I certainly have been.

Kelly

Sorry Kelly. You're not last. And I won't be last either. That's just the way the world works.

Sorry Blairrrr. You're not last. And I won't be either. That's just the way the world works.

And now I will go get a life.

so glad the whole thing is over--on to 2005.

Thats a cute dog.What breed is he? My 3 Heinz 57's were cute 1 time. But now their just my 3 loveable sons. One's 70 lbs,50 lbs and 25 lbs. They get along with my 2 manx-siamese cats[the bosses] My first time here but not my last. Merry Christmas n a Happy NewYear. Fa,la,la,la,la,..la, la, la ,la.

Doesn't he look like a noble steed?

Chuck is SO cute! I want to know if he tries to fight you when you're dressing him. Go Chuck!

GEORGE...

The "George" wasn't, by some freaky chance, in Dallas this weekend, was he? My hubby and I were at the Best Buy and this guy walked by that I SWEAR was George. I almost took a picture of him to send you, but the husband took the camera away from me! Mean hubby!

Happy Boxing Day from Houston! Hey, you guys missed all the snow. Next blizzard: 2090. See you then!

Bill

Ohmigod! We ALWAYS did that to my dog! We used to take him out for walks with them on and all the cars honked at him!

http://miami.backpage.com/employment/classifieds/ViewAd?oid=oid%3A70573&...

heres the # of that bitch that you talk about on the front page, apparently she is looking for a job too.

I will never get sik of that damn dog.

When did you make fun of Turkish people? I'm confused.

Nick, I found that too. You'd think that if she were going to send Dooce hateful (unsolicited) e-mail she would use an ANONYMOUS address so that we couldn't find her portfolio and full name within 30 seconds. Maybe someone should send her an e-mail that says "your work does not even slightly resemble graphic design, and I mean that in a REALLY bad way."

Don't worry Dooce, we've got your back.

She spelled "their" as "thier"

dude. seriously. you ain't all that debbie jean. i wouldn't let your freaky eyebrow havin ass nanny my kid.

And, I hope anyone who is considering her as a nanny isn't interested in literate children because her job solicitation or whatever it's called is also fraught with typos. "Gandar"? Isn't that some character from "Lord of the Rings"?

COOL! Her shitty web site now no longer works. Looks like too many hundreds of people tried to get in there at once. I wonder how long it will take her to realize that she brought this all upon herself?!?!?

From almost three months ago? Way to be current.

Oh, yeah, and Heather, that negative comment you made a year ago about Jennifer Garner's pleated pants? Take it back. (Just kidding.)

I have a REALLY good idea... since Dooce doesn't have a daily photo for today, I think a left-click and "save as" on Debbie Niemeyer's photo is in order. A little Gaussain Blur, adjust the color balanca and voila! The perfect daily photo. Dooce can call it "Illiterate Miami Nanny".

I dont post all that often but wanted to put in my 2 cents. Those of you that have such a big problem with dooce, then why the hell to you read the site? just move on!! I sure hope she gets bombarded with nasty emails and phone calls herself!! You surely deserve it hon!!

Heather ~ you know we all love ya'

*XOXO*

damn that stupid turk! she disconnected her phone! (or maybe couldn't read it in the superior language of english to know the pay date and it was shut off)

Time to put the hurt on DJN.

Long live The Dooce!

Just use the "Im rubber you're glue, whatever you say bounces off me and sticks to you!" tactic.

Oh and DJ, your email is full of typos, if you're going to insult people at least try to spell properly. Now we can make fun of you.

Ok....I LOVE Dooce too and read everyday, but I don't think it's fair to go spreading that women's info everywhere. Yes, she was mean, and I know her personal info is out there, but that's not cool really to encourage everyone to send her *loads* of hate mail.

And she is obviously foreign so making fun of her spelling etc is just petty.

I am not sticking up for her, I just don't think reacting poorly makes us any better.

who invited the party pooper? aka "can't we all just get along"

GASP! She posted that woman's email address?!

It's an on-line version of a cat fight in the works. Very entertaining. And we all get to watch.

This is embarrassing.

Dear Dooce Fans,

I hate you all! Americans suck and can go to hell! Chuck is ugly too. One day the Turks are gonna blow this country up and you all will be sorry that you ever made fun of me.

consider yourselves warned,

Debbie

This is getting way out of hand. I have a couple of things to say to Rey before I move on... 1. Heather says (RIGHT ON HER "contact me" PAGE) that she reserves every right to post complete e-mails and addresses, especially if they're hateful. So I consider this person (and all others) warned. If she didn't want it posted, she shouldn't have sent it. Period. 2. Dooce has every right to ask for donations, and it MAKES NO DIFFERENCE WHAT KIND OF HOUSE SHE HAS. Why is her socioeconomic class relevant?!? If you don't want to donate, then don't. But you can't bag on her for asking. Truth be told, every day she writes and posts things that we all enjoy. She does this for hobby, NOT for a living. If she did it for a living, would you criticize her for cashing her paycheck?

Bottom line... if you don't like what she writes and posts and if you think she's arrogant, then don't bother coming back.

Onward and upward.

I'm with the pp who said something along the lines of "if you don't like the site, don't hit the refresh button."

Although, you have to wonder if trolls like this flame because they want the publicity. Those of us who'd love dooce to throw us a public bone try to toe the line; the trolls go for the jugular to get quick blood and recognition.

Dooce, you have an agent right? This is going to turn into a best selling memoir soon, right??? I've probably missed this conversation earlier, but it seems like an agent has to be around here somewhere.

Dooce: Not your average terrorist threat.

Rey just so happens to be Djnieme@aol.com. They are the same person.

I'm speechless. I guess it is time to ignore her/him/them.

We so totally had a computer problem yesterday so today I was going to come on and say Merry Christmas and wow!

Rey/Debbie- I don't think the parents in Miami will be too excited to hire you as the nanny to their sucky American kids when you are saying blowing the country up is something you look forward too. That's just not good PR baby.

You look like a prodigy of Brother Justin, what with the smile and all.

How freaky is it that someone that hateful wants to be a nanny?! Scary.

Well,it is.... Brother...

it's getting good now!

Perhaps Dooce could be so kind as to post this kind reader's URL so we can all just ban her (in advance) from posting anything on our sites.

julie...you no likey my post? so sorry to disappoint.

why can't you paypal me a quarter? i could use a quarter. college is expensive! expeshally when you have to retake classes over and over again. dude, just paypal me the damn quarter!!

Throwdown!

But seriously, regarding any autistic possibilities:

1) Yeah, it does have soemthing to do with sensory issues. And you ARE doing something about it. Leta's getting PT, and she's not even one. Most kids aren't treated at all until at least two or three.

2) My son, who's eight, has Asperger's Syndrome, an autistic disorder. He's great - it's really not the worst fate in the world.

3) You can't "make her autistic." That's pretty much impossible - she will be, or she won't be. But it won't have anything to do with how Heather and Jon raise her. It's suspected to be neurological, possibly genetic, and certainly not a result of bad parenting and/or lack of early intervention. Duh, Debbie / Rey.

4) Heather, Jon : you rock. And you're human. And it sounds, to me anyway, like you're giving Leta exactly what she needs. Debbie/Rey sounds like a bitter little woman (and kind of masochistic, if she's still reading all of these comments - WTF?)

5) Debbie / Rey : hunt ME down, beeyatch! I live in the Bronx. You'd be eaten for breakfast here.
