I did a poat with this song a week or two ago, but I didn’t realize that Fats Domino was still around. Although he’s only slightly older than MCPO (and who isn’t?), he’s still managed to do some benefit work for the city of New Orleans since Hurricane Katrina.

Ok, not really. It sucks. The poat, not the morning.
Wakey wakey. That article leon linked last night was good.
It’s funny. John Cusack doesn’t see to have much to say since Obama took office. He used to be a rather consistent blogger at Huffpo. Last article – May 18 2009.

Happy Birthday, Clint! This year, you are officially two days older than dirt.
Happy birfday Clint. In your honor, I’m getting my oil changed.
Many happy returns Clint.
I’m getting my oil changed.
Is that code for wild and crazy sex in Michigan? Sounds like it….
Happy barfday, I mean birfday, I mean Birthday, clint. Remember, a slingshot is the last one you have at the bar before you fall over and break your arm….
And is that header pic of the dog from Car in’s yard? It sure looks like a sign I should have on my fence. Mine is much more subtle – it just says “Stop – Dogs in yard”.
No AD, it’s code for “I’m stuck at the Honda dealership so you

I don’t think she’s really talking about a foot-rub, Clint.

Those foot massagers at the mall aren’t really for feet, right?
I hope nor or I’m gonna feel really stupid
It’s OK. PJM is having one of the Ga-Ga brothers give her a pedicure first. She told the neighbors that it’s part of their “vocational training”.
What is “just over half” to you? Fifty-one percent? Fifty-two percent? Fifty-three? Fifty-five?
Rasmussen thinks 58% is “just over half.”
Conflation… It’s not just for liberals anymore. From the same article:
My fault for not reading far enough. Still, 54%? Obama was elected at 53%, and his victory was declared “decisive” and a “landslide.” I guess my point hasn’t changed.

I got a little hungry late last night, so I pulled out the container of macaroni salad we had left over from a recent bbq. Apparently, I opened the container, then placed it on top of the freezer door, while I…. did something else(?) I don’t know.
I guess I got the distracted and then forgot all about the macaroni salad, because it spent the night on top of the freezer door, open.
Well, until my wife opened the freezer this morning. Oopsies.

To every one of the pretentious artistes who has ever praised this woman’s work, as well as all those in this clip who applauded for this poor, disturbed woman, I offer a hearty “fuck you” for a) keeping this deluded woman deluded and b) for making it possible for her to perform her art in public as though she is actually talented and not just some incredibly crazy old lady

Wiser’s video is precisely the reason I hate Newt Gingrich’s gut to this day. He promised to stop funding for the “arts.” He is a gutless jackass, and has no business being given a mic to offer his opinions anymore.

Paul McCartney broke up the Beatles.

McCartney quit first. His stupid wife LInda, and the even stupider Yoko both had a hand in it. I never cared much for the band.
The bass line in that Wings tune is kinda fun.
Do NOT tell me I’m going to be here for two hours. OMG, I see my car. I think I do. They’re driving it around front. OH CRAP. It kept going. Perhaps it wasn’t mine.

WIser, you are correct, we are a society that is too polite. How come no one started laughing really hard like I did while they were listening to that moron yell?

Paul is a massive bag of douche.
You know why that Yoko song sucks so badly?
It was a cover.
That’s it, her career is over then.
Yeah, McCartney was the guy who ran off Pete Best too. That was a jack move, for no other reason than he felt Best was too good looking.
That’s it, her career is over then.
Yep. Beginning of the end for her. for sure.

I heard it was because Paul wasn’t into superlatives.
Mare – Turkey, bacon and provolone on fresh, sun-dried tomato bread with raw baby carrots on the side. Would you like lemonade or sweet tea?
I heard it was because Pete Best kept breaking his drum sticks and the over head was just too much.

I also heard Pete Best kept taking Paul’s eyeliner and fights would always break out before shows.

PJM (and others, but mostly PJM) We used to get Solutions catalogs in the mail. If you don’t know them, they’re basically Hammacher Schlemmer, if it was run by Heloise, of “Himts from” fame.
It makes fun bathroom-reading fodder. Mrs. Reason has maybe actually ordered something from it once…a couple Halloween decorations. Which means, we’re on their distribution list 4LYF.
About a year ago, I started to notice a couple “personal massagers” showing up in there. After my own puerile giggling about them, maturity finally prevailed, and I thought nothing of them.
Then the most recent volume came. And apparently they were being too subtle with their personal massagers, because now they’ve made it completely obvious that yes, the puerile giggling was entirely due, these things are meant for “feminine intimacy.” And, just to drive that point home (hurrr), they’ve now added a couple dongs to the lineup. They don’t LOOK like dongs, but their intended usage is entirely obvious. You don’t sell nouveau “art glass” sculpture consisting of conjoined spheres of increasing diameter on the “personal massager” page for no reason.
Mrs. Reason has called and had our address removed from distribution.

Wiser, you are really that close? If my husband has work and we stay at his friend’s there (he works in NYC). I wouldn’t want to stay at his house alone. I will call you and meet you wherever is good.
We’ve been told to fly into those airports but if it’s really expensive my husband won’t do it. We normally fly Delta. But from DFW, American is the one to fly to New York. Bummer, because we have to start over on the miles.

Yep. Keep in mind, CT is such a small state that you can drive from the eastern border to the western border in approx. 2 hours. I’m just about dead center of the state and Port Chester is just over the CT border.

Somebody needs to send that picture of the DC Mall to Farrakhan and tell him “This is what a million man march REALLY looks like.”
the media is trying so hard to say that almost no one was in DC on Saturday with their ridiculously low estimates.
When they were announcing the various crowd estimates to us, we all laughed en masse. I’m no expert at this, but there had to be about a half million people there. And the pics don’t show how many people were gathered around the Washington Monument and scattered all the way in between the two sites, the whole way up.
It was amazing. We met Jack M. at the CT pillar of the WWII monument, and even all that distance away, it was so dense that people were pretty much standing back-to-chest, and we were literally squeezing between bodies to get anywhere, and apologizing profusely.
Get this, I’m living the lifestyle of the semi rich and famous.
While we were gone our host had his cars detailed (like he does every other month) and he had mine done too, inside and out and had my windows tinted darker because, “you live in Texas now and need it.”
Also, he had his driving service pick us up at the airport. It’s a short trip to his house but it was still fun seeing the driver holding a sign with our name, taking all our bags and having cold water and mints on the drive home.
I’ve done some nice things for our host while we are staying here (SHUT YOUR WHORE MOUTHS) but he’s been very sweet and generous.
“We’ve been told to fly into those airports but if it’s really expensive my husband won’t do it. We normally fly Delta. But from DFW, American is the one to fly to New York. Bummer, because we have to start over on the miles.”
If your husband is a big-time frequent-flier, sometimes you can call up the competitor airline and see if they will match his current status in exchange for his business.
If he’s flying 100K a year, you can bet that AA would gladly give him Executive Platinum perks in exchange for such regular business.
Never hurts to ask. I’ve seen some of my managers make it happen. I’m just a lowly Gold status, though. And barely, at that.
you can drive from the eastern birder to the western border in approx. 2 hours.
You can do that in Michigan, too, but it takes about 11 hours to drive north to south.
Good tip, Reason and he WAS doing a 100,000 miles easily per year. Maybe a little less now. He’s over a million at Delta.

I never thought I’d say this, but I’m hoping I get to go back to PT before my shoulder surgery. Just waiting on what the vasc. dude says. (I put dude in there just for MCPO. I would never call him dude.)

PattyAnn is the vascular surgeon Thursday for consult or for actual surgery that day?
I don’t fly enough to get FF miles. I am content in my Michigan bubble. Except for when I venture to Texas. Every time I go there, it’s a real struggle to come home.
Wiser, I don’t know if he’s a lifetime but he’s a Platinum for sure.
I’m sure he is this year, but he needs to keep reaching 75k each year to maintain platinum. You only get lifetime status when you reach millions of miles total.
PJ, I’ve had to wait this long to see the vasc. dr. for the first time and OCare’s not even here yet.
I admit, I chose to wait for him as he is supposed to be the “best” in the Dallas area. This will be our introductory meeting.
let me know the next time you’re here. We might actually be able to get a few of us together.
*raises hand*
OMG PJ, I had never been to DC before, so it was WAY cool! It was a very long day, but totally worth it.
Totally jealous!!
I can’t even begin to imagine the energy there. CHILLS!!
“Please explain why abortion is part of a curriculum for Personal Health.”
Today, class, we’re going to talk about how to get rid of the “Baby” parasite! Isn’t that exciting?
I hope this lady starts commenting here. If she’s not H2 material, I don’t know who is:

WOO HOO! Check from the IRS arrived from my re-filing our 2008 return. Got what we should have gotten, plus interest!
YAY!!! I can pay the mortgage this month!!!
Thank you, Obama!!
best of luck with the cutter, PA.
look at the cool deal I’ve found!!

mare, I’ve been thinking about you all morning and it’s driving me crazy. Madeleine has decided to do a theme in her room and guess what it is? Hawaiian. Guess what that requires? WICKER!!!
Her old dresser is completely broken. It’s from Ikea and was 5 years old. That’s old for IKEA furniture.
Laura, we thought Scott was such a nice husband to light that beacon to guide you home. He’s such a sweetie.
(I’m so happy you got to go. Yes, I am jealous.)
Clintbird, consult on Thursday. Everything hinges on that.
Seriously, Jazz, I do hope your appointments and procedures fix whatever’s ailing you.
Thanks, PA. I have a ganglion cyst in my right wrist and some problems with the joints in my right thumb. I have some minor arthritis in that thumb, but arthritis doesn’t account for the atypical movement and extraordinary pain in the joint, so I now I get special attention.
As far as the neurologist goes, my left pinky and the left half of my left ring finger are numb. It appears as if the relevant nerve is being impinged in my neck, so we’re going to figure that one out, too. I have had this problem for about three years or so, and I’ve received chiropractic treatment for it that has alleviated some of the severity, but the numbness is still a noticeable problem. So I get special time for that, too.
I’m really, really hoping these problems can be fixed. They’re dramatically impacting my time at the dojo and the gym.
This will be our introductory meeting.
updates are a must
Ut-oh PJ. It’s already been deleted.
PA, I ever tell you about the time Mrs. Reason almost lost her leg because of a vascular “mishap”?
Or is now a bad time?
Heh PA.
Lauraw’s long day was made a little longer with those volunteer fire department duties there at the end.
Guess which is the coddled class. You only get one guess.

PJM. go to Loews or Home Depot and get the thin bamboo fencing. It’s cheap and you can use it around the wall of the room like bead board. Or attach it high and use it as a head board. So cute. Also, landscaping/plant places will have it.
Wiser, yes, you are right, it changes every year.
Reason, let’s wait awhile on that story
The only thing scarier to me would be brain surgery.
Wicker SUCKS!
Ut-oh PJ. It’s already been deleted.
oh good. I told her it’s mine
that is SUCH a deal
8 pieces of outdoor furniture (1 tall round table, 2 barstools with arms, 1 regular round table, 4 chairs with arms — for only $50 (cash only)
Originally purchased at Pier 1. Tall table & regular table have glass top on top of wicker. Metal frames on all. Wicker is worn.
the wicker is hardly worn. It’s just got the gloss over it faded. I’ll paint
Really, I like wicker outside. Wish I could see your set, PJM.
Check from the IRS arrived from my re-filing our 2008 return.
In typical government fashion, I received three letters today from the IRS.
One was addressed to me and contained two (2) pages telling me that they have “changed my account(?)” to reflect the decrease in taxes due to my refiling and that weI now had a credit, which would be addressed by the payment that was being sent in a separate envelope.
The second was addressed to wiserbride and contained two (2) pages telling her that they have “changed her account(?)” to reflect the decrease in taxes due to my refiling and that we now had a credit, which would be addressed by the payment that was being sent in a separate envelope.
(we filed jointly, by the way. Why we both needed a separate notification is beyond me.)
The third envelope was the check, which I had specifically requested be direct deposited.
Government waste? THE DEVIL YOU SAY!!!
Wish I could see your set, PJM.
TAKE IT, XBRAD!!!
Jazz – do you have a reason for why the nerves in your neck started acting up?
I had very similar symptoms in my left hand (pink and ring finger numb, extending down my hand to my wrist) a couple years ago. My PrimaryCare told me I was compressing the nerve in my elbow that gives you the “funny bone” sensation every day, due to the way I would sit at my desk at work.
It’s mostly gone away, but I’m curious to know what they’ve told you, just to compare.
“Government waste? THE DEVIL YOU SAY!!!”
hahahahahaha
I’m glad you have some cash, Wiser. Please forgive if this is one of those things that tickes you off, but I haven’t been around, could you tell me how the job search slash not working is going?
PJM. go to Loews or Home Depot and get the thin bamboo fencing
That’s such a good idea!!
My MIL, as much as she bugs, is a great seamstress and is making a quilt for her out of material she gets everytime she goes to Hawaii
I was thinking of using this place for decorating her room. totally cheap.

Madeleine has already made the artwork for her room while we were in Utah.
Wiser, I have a great idea, why don’t you work for the government?
hahahahhhahahahahahahahahahahahahaha
(too soon?)
Wish I could see your set, PJM.
TAKE IT, XBRAD!!!
SNORT!
Great idea, Pjm.
Definitely go to party planning stores and the Dollar Store or Price Busters. They always have Hawaiian themed stuff.

Nothing yet. I have what’s called “military neck,” meaning I have no natural curvature to my neck. The vertebrae sit edge-to-edge at the back side of the bone, rather than flat side-to-flat side. Suspicion is that this is a natural result of that structural defect. The numbness occasionally extends, too, down the inside of my biceps and through my forearm. It’s really very sucktastic.
To round out the back problems, I have a significant scoliosis in my lower back that causes constant pain and spasm. That I just deal with by receiving regular chiropractic treatments. I also have a prescription for pain.
Getting old sucks.
THANKS A LOT FOR THE WARNING, MCPO!
I stole this from Mitchieville:

Bob Earl is now a category 3 redneck hurricane with a hangover.
PJ, love the foam parrots on page 3. Also, that looks like wrought iron with wicker. Way better than wicker, IMHO.
PJ, love the foam parrots on page 3
hahaha, I’ll get you some for Christmas. And some margarita mix.
Funny thing, reason – I’ve dealt with back and neck pain since I was 10 or so. No one took me seriously as a kid. In grade school, I was identified in scoliosis screening for further investigation (6th grade), but nothing came of it. It wasn’t until I was in excruciating pain in my 20s that physicians began to take me seriously. I had heard that the pain was a figment of my imagination so many times that I started to believe the docs, that I was just perpetually in pain through my own “psychological defect.” I can’t even describe how happy I was when a chiropractor, of all people, validated my pain and gave me some relief. That’s why I’m partial to chiropractic now, and, while not suspicious of medicine, I always give the docs the third degree on major health decisions.
PJM!!!! YOU GOT A STEAL!!!!!
That stuff looks terrific and I know Pier One pretty well and those sets (one table, two chairs) are way over $150.
Yeah, that’s not your average wicher.
awwwww, poor jazz.
You want me to walk on your back for you?
could you tell me how the job search slash not working is going?
jobs are extremely difficult to find right now, especially in my particular industry. I have over 20 recruiters looking and I’venot heard form one. The worst part is, all of rthe positions I do find require me to live in Missouri or Kentucky or some other god-forsaken hellhole. (
)
I did get one lead last week, but they may not want to hire me because I live too far from the territory (New York City.) ??? 2 hours out is too far? Why don’t you let me make that decision, huh?
I’m filling in the gaps with some side jobs and by helping a start-up get their sales team put together. Unfortunately, they can;t hire me, because I couldn’t afford to go to work for them for what they could pay me. But I figure if I get them off on the right foot and the company takes off, I would be pretty well positioned with them for when they could.
Thanks for asking. It’s been a real bitch having to scramble every time a bill arrives, but we’ve been doing okay.
Laura, we thought Scott was such a nice husband to light that beacon to guide you home. He’s such a sweetie.
Ha ha ha haaa!
Yeah, that was a real special ending to a real special day.
PJM!!!! YOU GOT A STEAL!!!!!
I AM SO EXCITED!!! I would never have been able to afford it otherwise.
I got her 15 minutes after she posted it and my email said,
If I beg and say
Please, please, please, please, please, please, please, please
will that make a difference?
You want me to walk on your back for you?
That would be awesome.
Bob Earl is now a category 3 redneck hurricane with a hangover.
Cone. OF. Death.
I think redneck names for hurricanes would be cool, depending on how kick ass they are. Bubba Jim, Bob Earl, Cletus, Willie.
One really nice thing in relation to my back: My mother, along with being a (conservative) clinical psychologist, is a certified massage therapist with all sorts of other massage accreditation, too, like medical massage. I’ve been able to score deep tissue massages about twice a week this past month. My quality of life improves dramatically with that kind of treatment.
Billy Bob’s definitely a Cat 5.
” or some other god-forsaken hellhole. (:))”
Well, you still have your sense of humor. I can’t imagine searching now and will say some prayers and kick a few stray cats that you will find something soon. I think many of us could be in your position in a heartbeat. The company my husband consults for is big, slow and stupid and just not lean enough. I’m kind of wondering why they haven’t called and said, “Hey, thanks but no thanks.” He’s doing some pretty heavy duty sales calls to show his value (and also to show he’s better than any sales guy they have and that’s not even his job).
And all this time I thought you were making thousands commenting on this blog. Huh.
If you get bored we can run someone off the blog like I offered earlier. Let me know.
well, this refund check is burning a hole in my pocket.
Gonna go buy some goats.
bbl.

SHIRLENA?
Jazz – that really sucks. I hate stories of kids with legitimate complaints that aren’t listened to just because “they’re kids.”
I catch myself doing that with my own from time to time. It’s good to have a reminder not to.
Wiser,
Sorry about the job situation. Hopefully things will turn around.
Preach it, brother Jazz. I’ve had back/legs pain and numbness that keeps getting worse for over 30 years. Doctors have always said it’s osteo-arthritis and there’s only so much they can do for it. Now I know better.
Gonna go buy some goats.
GREAT IDEA!!!
rat bastard
Redneck Hurricanes. LOVE IT.
Category 1 and 2 only get first names. Once they get into 3+ territory, they get the middle name Jo (for feminine names) or Bob (for masculine names) added.
If you get bored we can run someone off the blog like I offered earlier.
And all this time I thought you were making thousands commenting on this blog.
You have noticed an uptick in the number of people here complaining about getting hit with viruses, haven’t you?
cha-CHING!
Problem is, I only get paid based on the number of people here, so running people off at this point is counter-productive, unless I can turn that into an actual increase in traffic.
And just whom do you think we can run off that would attract more people here after they’re gone?
Sorry about the job situation. Hopefully things will turn around.
Thanks, brother.
You and I are almost in the same biz. Be sure to let me know if you hear anything, ‘k?
“And just whom do you think we can run off that would attract more people here after they’re gone?”
Wow. My ears just started burning.
Jazz, that’s what I miss most about my PT. The medical, deep tissue massage. My arm and back miss it horribly.
Good afternoon.
You didn’t think you could run me off that easily, did you?
well, this refund check is burning a hole in my pocket.
Gonna go buy some goats.
This, ladies and gentlemen, is why they always put the Red Light District close to the docks.
Dow Jones Industrial Average to Obama: You Lie!
Wiser,
Will do. I am looking around a little bit right now as well, my business took a huge dump after the bill passed, like 95% of my business gone, poof!
I will email you if I hear anything.
I never realized that “blight” was ever actually considered by the Master Planning Committee…
I hate stories of kids with legitimate complaints that aren’t listened to just because “they’re kids.”
Man, I hated being a kid and being told, “If you do these exercises, you’ll feel better.” Fuck you. The fucking exercises HURT – not fucking minor pain, but “I can’t fucking get out of bed” pain. I still bristle when the docs suggest exercises and don’t incorporate any real PT. My fucking back looks like an “S” curve, and it fucking hurts all the time. The fucking exercises exacerbate the problem. Either I’m doing them wrong with no supervision or I shouldn’t being doing the FUCKING EXERCISES. Goddam, that pisses me right off. Fucking doctors. Christ.
Don’t worry, Jazz. Dr. Pelosi’s gonna make you all better.
Wiser, have you considered a job as a goat saleman?
Doctors have always said it’s osteo-arthritis and there’s only so much they can do for it. Now I know better.
That little bit of knowledge is SO liberating!
Jazz, that’s what I miss most about my PT. The medical, deep tissue massage.
If you were here in Michigan, I’d set you up with my mom. She massages all my female friends. I don’t trust my guy friends. They might try to hump her, and I don’t have a single friend I want to call “Daddy.”
Don’t worry, Jazz. Dr. Pelosi’s gonna make you all better.
Every fucking retort I have to that comment will get me investigated by the FBI.
Jazz, you don’t have to call me “Daddy”.
“Your Exalted One” will do nicely.
Jazz, you don’t have to call me “Daddy”.
“Your Exalted One” will do nicely.
Yah – but first, you will blow me.
Man, I hated being a kid and being told, “If you do these exercises, you’ll feel better.” Fuck you. The fucking exercises HURT
I hear you. I’ve had sciatica since I was about 11 and no doctor ever believed I could have had that because I was so young.
It had to do with me being dropped from a hammock onto concrete at a slumber party. The parents just left me lying on a couch for 4 hours because I couldn’t move. Didn’t even call my parents.
Wiser, have you considered a job as a goat saleman?
I’d be his best customer
Jazz has freinds.
I hate him.
Wiser, have you considered a job as a goat saleman?
He could never part with his concubines.
ok, I STILL have boxes and boxes of books to put away. I really need to quit buying books.
I’ve got everything from Aquinas to Dr. Suess and I don’t want to brag or anything, but I’ve read Green Eggs and Ham like 13 times already WITH comprehension.
just sayin’
like 95% of my business gone, poof!
shocking.
And yet, people still think this is a good thing! We were all getting rich and now, they have taken that away from our greedy asses. According to the left, the only people who should are allowed rich are our exalted leaders (praise be unto them.)
Wiser, have you considered a job as a goat saleman?
Ya know, that’s not a baaaaaaaad idea.
Jazz, would you mind sending me a picture of your mom? Thanks.
Until last week or so, I used UI2.com to preview links for a host of different sites. They’ve gone off the radar, though. The site’s not loading. It’s like it went out of business, which sucks. It was a great conservative news aggregator.
“If you were here in Michigan, I’d set you up with my mom.”
And I would let you and say “thank you kindly”.
This is such a SICK blog.
Either I’m doing them wrong with no supervision or I shouldn’t being doing the FUCKING EXERCISES.
JAzz,
A little market research question for you. Would you be willing to pay a small, one-time fee to have access to a video library of the exercise you have been prescribed, as well as a direct communications conduit to your doc or therapist, who can also use this portal to track your progress?
I’ve read Green Eggs and Ham like 13 times already WITH comprehension.
That’s not counting the additional 22 times she read it without.
Jazz, would you mind sending me a picture of your mom? Thanks.
PG is already encroaching on my goat-selling business?
Jazz, would you mind sending me a picture of your mom? Thanks.
Sure, but if you accidentally receive pics of 15″ ebony wand, I’m not resending them.
wiser, no way would I know how to do my PT exercises without the Therapist demonstrating and helping me move my body the way they want it to move. They know where to place your hands/feet and when to suck and when to blow.
I’m just getting worse and worse, aren’t I?
A little market research question for you. Would you be willing to pay a small, one-time fee to have access to a video library of the exercise you have been prescribed, as well as a direct communications conduit to your doc or therapist, who can also use this portal to track your progress?
No, I would not. I would be interested in personal appointments with my doctor and a physical therapist, though, to discuss and implement my treatment plan, as well as to re-evaluate it once their fucking exercises are acknowledged to be deleterious to my well-being.
no way would I know how to do my PT exercises without the Therapist demonstrating and helping me move my body the way they want it to move.
do you think it would have helped to be able to review them after you got home to make sure you were doing them correctly?
I would be interested in personal appointments with my doctor and a physical therapist, though, to discuss and implement my treatment plan,
This would be in addition to that, not instead of that.
They know where to place your hands/feet and when to suck and when to blow.
Those ESL classes for the young Thai girls are paying off already.
Wiser, I don’t know if you were serious or not – I interpreted you as an unserious person – but in what I would consider appropriate circumstances, I might consider that. Anything with a level 4 or lower on my pain scale, I would be amenable to some sort of scheme like that.
Hahahaha … re last night’s TwitChimp dustup with John Cusack
http://iowahawk.typepad.com/iowahawk/2010/08/have-your-people-call-my-people.html
PA’s just getting mentally prepared for her “first meating” with her new doctor-friend…
Wiser, I don’t know if you were serious or not
Actually, I was.
And now, I will shut up.
FUCK. One of my new chickens got away. It’s in the woods.
sigh.
My kids are trying to catch it … but it doesn’t look good.
It was a little one, and the older ones were picking on it. I tried to get it out so I could separate it for a while… little bugger ran STRAIGHT for the woods.
CRAP.
Actually, I was.
And now, I will shut up.
Don’t. I actually like it when you have something serious to offer.
The hawks and owls thank you in advance, Car in.
If my dogs don’t get it first. I mean, I can keep them inside for a while, but eventually they’re gonna have to go.
Chicken for dinner?
FUCK.
None of my chickens ever did that. I mean, just run for the hills. I totally wasn’t expecting it.
AH WAS RUNNING!
Don’t. I actually like it when you have something serious to offer.
Unlike that time in the bathroom. “Wide stance” indeed.
I can’t remember where it’s from, but I’m pretty sure that flag in front of the Republican Party office is racist.
Don’t worry, Car in. Eventually, it will come home to roost.
“I mean, just run for the hills. I totally wasn’t expecting it.”
You need a shotgun.
My kids are trying to catch it … but it doesn’t look good.
