To Ms. Giffords: May she fully recover.

(How's that for toast?)

wv: ovulav (for those moments when you want to get pregnant?)

Palladian ayon kay ...

Toast or a toast?

She deserves both.

kjbe ayon kay ...

Wish her well. It's a good place to start...

AllenS ayon kay ...

A lot easier to say than Leinenkugel.

TMink ayon kay ...

Praise God. Here is praying for continued miracles.

I'm glad to hear that she has made that step and hopefully she will continue to improve. Often the simplest of words, expressions or movements are the most meaningful.

DADvocate ayon kay ...

Yeah, toast!!!

Palladian ayon kay ...

Maybe it was actually "[The scumbag who did this to me is] toast" but she only got out the last word.

The Crack Emcee ayon kay ...

She's hungry - wonderful!

Peter Hoh ayon kay ...

After she's mastered the BRAT diet, she can move on to intellectually inert brats.

MadisonMan ayon kay ...

Excellent news to read.

Sofa King ayon kay ...

Tomorrow: four fried chickens, and a Coke.

rhhardin ayon kay ...

I don't recall her ever having said anything interesting.

Unknown ayon kay ...

Ditto with Palldian.

She's come a very long way in a short time.

Mark ayon kay ...

This is an excellent sign. Good luck to the Representative from Arizona's Eighth.

Wince ayon kay ...

Oh no, may indicate Tape Worm.

Hindi-nagpakilala ayon kay ...

Toast is good. Get her some good toast. Stat.

Trooper York ayon kay ...

This is just not true.

She first woke up and spoke when the President visited her.

And she asked for Pancakes.

Trooper York ayon kay ...

It was in all the papers.

Trooper York ayon kay ...

If Mort was awake he would say it is racist.

Fred4Pres ayon kay ...

I take that as very good news, especially since the damage was reported to be to the area of the brain that effects speech.

With a head injury, I would probably ask for something that did not require a lot of chewing.

Hindi-nagpakilala ayon kay ...

sweet potato bread toast?

sunsong ayon kay ...

Wonderful news!

Leland ayon kay ...

Poor dear. With all this cold, wet, rainy weather; she must have thought she was in London. Sorry Gabby, you're in Houston. How about some bacon or sausage?

David ayon kay ...

Compare and contrast: (1) Ms. Giffords (2) Toast.

Rep. Giffords is not Toast, folks.

Give her all she wants, with sugar, cinnamon, cherry jam and creamy butter from cows that jump over the moon.

Phil 314 ayon kay ...

She has a long way to go.

former law student ayon kay ...

Thank God!

You're wondering why she asked for toast? I am irresistably reminded of this little story:

Albert Einstein was 4. He was eating dinner and exclaimed suddenly 'Die Suppe ist zu heiss' and his parents responded 'Oh Albert you can talk. Why have you never talked before ?' And he said "Bis jetzt war alles in ordnung."

Larry Davis ayon kay ...

Great news!

The human brain is a wonder to behold. Some people have lived and functioned fine with only one hemisphere.

DADvocate ayon kay ...

FLS - How come Einstein spoke German and his parents spoke English?

Methadras ayon kay ...

Truly a miracle that this woman survived such a wound. However, I'm beginning to see the leftards use her as an anointed saint.

etbass ayon kay ...

Dem Veep candidate in 2012?

etbass ayon kay ...

Dem VP candidate in 2012?

Big Mike ayon kay ...

No, no, no! What she really said was, that bastard that shot me is toast as soon as I get out of this bed and grab my 9mm.

Clyde ayon kay ...

If it had been John Kerry, he would have asked for French toast...

Steve Burri ayon kay ...

Big Mike beat me to the toastee.
