Reading, seeing and hearing Part 2

Poor MG -
so glad you didn't kill that OTHER dog and obtain the triffecta of dead dogs for those kids (whoever they are.)

I grab our bag of dog food, you gotta bribe females, and head out.

I'm offended, almost. Okay, not quite (or at all, really).

I think you and Frick need to have a discussion about female dogs and bags of food.

Just sayin'

 

[Master Gracie]

Also, is your name Paul??? I'm sure I didn't know that. Do you know how many important people in my life are named Paul???

One more now?

GA - Don't think it wasn't a close thing. Good thing I love dogs.

 

[sheridac]

One more now?

One more baby. Absolutely!!!

 

[Frickles]

Master G....funny, funny story! Running after dogs is the pits. I know.

Thanks for the comments about my dining question.!!! We have just never (gasp) seen Fantasmic, so I have no idea what my chances are for getting in to see it during the time we are there. H & V isn't sounding too impressive, so I think I'm going to can it. I just love free dining.

Someone remind me, what time is the meet on the 2nd? We now have to fly home that night. DH got invited to a golf tournament at the beach in NC and we are leaving that night. ugh. A half day at Disney, a plane ride home, and then a 7 hour car ride through the night. yikes.

 

[Frickles]

GACAt just gave me the meet info, so I'm set! Thanks kitty!

 

[GeorgiaAristocat]

Well, we're halfway down page two.

And, in case anyone is interested in the giant can of creepy crawly worms that MarkyMark opened: LINK

Mark - YOU DA MAN!

MasterG -

I have a dog-chasing story as well. My DF (at the time, now DH) and I were locking up at a friend's house - I don't remember now why it was just us there, but so be it. Anyway, they have 3 dogs - a German Shepherd, a 3-legged Doberman, and a Samoyed. The first two - extremely behaved. The third, not so much.

So anyway, as we're shutting the front door behind us, the Samoyed bolts out the front door, practically knocking me down, in her frantic quest to get outside, I guess - that fenced-in backyard wasn't doing it for her.

So anyway, she takes off running down the street (it couldn't have been the 3-legged Doberman?). I take out after her, as is my instinct as a dog-lover, but don't think to grab a leash, food, treats, etc. Also, I must admit I'm NOT the best runner. She pulls the same things your faux Lucy did - every time I called her, she would turn around, see me, and run even faster.

All I can think the entire time is, oh my God, I'm going to be the reason my friend's dog was killed. My DF is about 2 blocks behind me because he ran into the house for a leash and dog food.

She keeps darting between houses, then will emerge 5 houses down, and start running up the street again. Finally, she gets behind a house where another dog has taken up residence, and decides to play. This gives my DF time to catch up and go to one side of the house, and I circle around the other side. We both creep around to the back of the house. She is so happy playing around that she doesn't notice us, thankfully, and my DF (6'2, 250) literally does a flying tackle and pins her to the ground - he then throws me the leash, and we get her hooked up.

I've never been so winded in my life - but I've found there's nothing I won't do for a dog. I could take or leave some people, but give me a pitiful dog glance, and I'm a goner.

Morning crew! (thanks for the wake-up call)

I need to go back to the riddle, I got nothing. Shouldn't the one after July 4th be a bit easier? (thanks for the link again)

Yes we are a clique. We, in fact, seem to be the very definition of a clique. Check the 'what does clique mean to you' thread if you want. I think they missed one thing on the list of what makes a thread a clique- Lou must post to it.

Master G good to hear you are not dead.

Ed, glad to see you are also alive. Where are our pictures?

Chappie I hope the clean up went well.

Frickles leaving WDW to golf? What kind of priorities is that?

NM I agree, feels like Monday. Ick.

Hi Grammy

Hi Kitty

Hi Rhonda

Hi everyone else!

 

[GeorgiaAristocat]

Hi Kitty

Hi Haley!

Was it my turn to wake you up? You looked like you needed the sleep.

Yeah, that's the ticket!

 

[jamal]

Here's a thought: most of the girls here have posted our pics. We have seen MG, Marky Mark, hooP, and of course, Ed's feet. I love being able to put a face with a name!

Amandapoppinscrocgirl, was it a good beach trip? Is the move soon?

Over and out.

 

[AshClan]

You guys are so funny with the dog stories! MG, the fact that it was the WRONG dog really cracked me up. Sorry, I know it wasn't funny for you, but I'm sure you appreciate the humor nonetheless. Oh, and it is nice to see you around again. You have been missed!

Sher, why didn't you know his name? Do you need my list? If so, PM me.

Marky Mark, I have been mildly entertained reading the first 10 pgs or so of the "Dan Murphy hacked" thread, and I just read yours. You are so eloquent. But, y'know, the whole discussion hasn't really bothered me. We know what we are, and we know (as do several of our recent newbies) that we are a welcoming bunch. I treasure these friendships I've made here, and love the daily updates, funny stories, and slices of life the we get from everyone. If others have a problem, as long as they don't start "trolling" to cause trouble, then it's not really our issue. I have been pleased to see how supportive the mods have been (with the exception of the "missing you" threads), and I also didn't feel that the bulk of the criticism was being directed at us, so much. Seems that other so-called clique threads have been either obnoxiously taking over other threads, or being mean to newbies, or other some such stuff. I think we just go along as we are, and let the whiners whine. Doesn't change us, right? If they end up adding a "clique" board, and/or a "games" board, that's fine with me. As long as I can find you guys somewhere, I'm cool!

I am back at work today and have been EXTREMELY unproductive. And I agree with all of you that a Disney fix is needed. I don't want to wish away my summer, but I can't wait until October! (Well, technically, the end of September.)

Eddie, where's your cruise report? hooP and Pooh, are we going to get more installments from the poopy trip? Soon?

TTYL!

And here I am:

What sort of spices are you feeding that man?

Oh and we highjacked once and only once that I can remember. It was the punctuation police thread.... you remember, a bunch of us jumped all over that one.... ( ) but there is a group that tends to um, pilage and plunder, a bit, on this board and I can see why that ticks some people off.

Yeah, Rhonda, and I can't believe I got suckered into actually responding. Take my keyboard away from me now. I'm not acknowledging any more of those threads.

Egads.

Hi Haley!

Was it my turn to wake you up? You looked like you needed the sleep.

Yeah, that's the ticket!

yeah, yeah, that's the ticket!

What was that from????

 

[jw50]

What sort of spices are you feeding that man?

Haley, I think it was from licking the dirty beige carpet

Or maybe the spices were dropped on the carpet before he licked it

 

[GeorgiaAristocat]

Oh, and MARKYMARK if you read this - love the new avatar!

JW sweetie - have you been licking the carpet again? DON'T DO THAT! You'll get sick.

Where's our wikipedia goddess when we need her?

Haley -
I was right!!!! It was SNL. Here's a skit:

The Pathological Liar Picks Up Jerry Hall

.....Jerry Hall
Tommy Flanagan.....Jon Lovitz
.....Mick Jagger

Bartender: What can I get you?

Jerry Hall: Uh.. I think I'll have a white wine spritzer. [ he places it on the counter and moves aside ] Can I get a light? [ pulls out a cigarette ]

Tommy Flanagan: [ swaying next to her with a cigarette lighter extended toward her ] I got it!

Jerry Hall: Thank you.

Tommy Flanagan: My name's Tommy, Dr. Tom.. uh.. Senator Tommy Flanagan.

Jerry Hall: Really?

Tommy Flanagan: Mmm hmm.. Say, haven't I seen you somewhere before?

Jerry Hall: I doubt it.

Tommy Flanagan: Oh, I know! I saw you at the.. White House! Yeah, that's the ticket. Why, I was just there last.. uh.. yesterday. Yeah.. having dinner with the Royal Family.

Jerry Hall: Which Royal Family?

Tommy Flanagan: Uh.. the one on TV. Yeah. Yeah, I'm a producer, you know. Big-time tele.. movie producer. Yeah, that's the ticket! So, what do you do?

Jerry Hall: Oh, I do some modeling, I wrote a book, and I'm into rock and roll.

Tommy Flanagan: Oh, yeah? I wrote a book about rock and roll. Yeah, it was about the guy who invented rock and roll. Yeah, that's it! In fact, it was.. it was an autobiography! Yeah!

Jerry Hall: [ not buying it ] You invented rock and roll?

Tommy Flanagan: Mmm hmm. Swing, too. Yeah, I played with all the big bands - Elvis Presley, Benny Goodman, Buddy Holly, The Who..

Jerry Hall: And I suppose you played with The Stones, too, huh?

Tommy Flanagan: Well, now you're being silly! I never played with them.

Jerry Hall: I didn't think so.

Tommy Flanagan: No. I managed them! Yeah.. I did. In fact, I wrote all their songs, too. You remember "Satisfaction"? I wrote it!

Jerry Hall: You did not write "Satisfaction".

Tommy Flanagan: Well.. not all of it. Actually.. uh.. Mick Jagger wrote it. Yeah, that's it! But it was originally called, uh.. "I Can't Get No.. uh.. Service in This Place".. and I changed it!

Jerry Hall: You know Mick Jagger?

Tommy Flanagan: Yeah. We were in Vietnam together. In fact, I saved his life.

Jerry Hall: He was never in 'Nam.

Tommy Flanagan: That's how I saved his life - I talked him out of going!

Jerry Hall: Come on! you never met Mick Jagger!

Tommy Flanagan: Oh, yeah? How do you know?

Jerry Hall: Because I'm his wife.

Tommy Flanagan: Oh. [ looks at her hand ] Yeah, well, where's your wedding band?

Jerry Hall: We're not exactly married.

Tommy Flanagan: Ah-ha! I knew you were lying!

Jerry Hall: Well, I am his girlfriend. [ looks to her side ] In fact, here he is now!

Mick Jagger: Hi, darling! I'm sorry I'm a little late. I was.. locked in the studio.

Jerry Hall: Never mind, let's just get going.. [ gets up ]

Tommy Flanagan: [ faking ] Hey, Mick, how you doing! It's me, Tommy! Remember?

Mick Jagger: Who's this guy?

Jerry Hall: Some guy named "Tommy", who thinks he knows you.

Mick Jagger: [ thinking ] Oh, yeah.. I know him!

Tommy Flanagan: [ surprised ] You do?

Jerry Hall: [ also surprised ] Really?

Mick Jagger: Yeah. You remember last weekend when I didn't come home? Uh.. I.. I was.. I was with Tommy. That's right! We were.. we were.. uh.. [ Tommy pantomimes fishing ] ..fishing together! That's the ticket! Right, Tommy?

Tommy Flanagan: [ on the spot ] Yeah, Mick, that's the ticket! You and me, fishing! Yeah! You bet!

Mick Jagger: We caught one this big! [ holds his arms out a couple of feet, while Tommy holds his out twice as much ]

Jerry Hall: [ not interested, wanting to go ] Come on.. [ pulls Mick out of the bar ]

Tommy Flanagan: See? I told you I knew him.

Mick Jagger: [ whispering to Tommy as he passes ] Thanks, buddy, I owe you for this one. [ faces the camera before he exits ] "Live, from New York, it's Saturday Night!"

 

[jw50]

JW sweetie - have you been licking the carpet again? DON'T DO THAT! You'll get sick.

BadKitty, it was not I that was licking the carpet, it was BadMarky (according to his wifey) that was licking the carpet, and you don't want to know what condition he is in as a result of doing so
