This is a Cat-astrophe! I feel like such a fowl for posting! ;)

What ever happened to flying bicycles? ou see 'ole black and whites depicting them but ya never see the real thing. They must be as rare as pigs that fly, ya think?

It was nice of rocky to sneak in though ;)

A few Cats right now would scare all those birds away.

Clicken · #**1853** (**permalink**) 02-05-2005, 11:13 AM

Okay,... you can pull those claws back in now... I am 'dropping' it!

This is no joke and maybe some of you have seen this on one of those home video shows like those Amazing animals or something like that.

I never would have believed it, if I had not seen it and even though I saw it, it was still hard to believe, because it is just so incredible!

There was a couple who recorded the growing relationship between a crow and a kitten. They knew no one would ever believe them so they started recording how the crow was taking care of this stray baby kitten.

The bird would feed the kitty as if it was a bird. Yes, the kitten would lie on it's back and the crow would stick food in it's mouth!

The couple took the little kitten in. And every day the crow would hop across the lawn up to the door step and crow it's head off until the door was opened and the kitty went out to play with the crow. It is filmed... they go off together and play like kittens.

At one point the crow hid behind the wall and when the kitten got up to it the crow jumped out from behind the wall and scared the kitten then they ran off together like best friends!

Well, according to that one commercial he drives a Volkswagen!

The one we used to have working for the county around here walked when it got to deep for his '67 Ford Econoline van to make the trip.

The one we've got now has driven 2 - 3 nearly new pickup trucks off in sloughs, lakes, you name it, so a little 3 - 4 - 5 foot snow bank wouldn't stop him, if we'd had enough snow for him to worry about since he started, but we haven't, so it's really been no challenge for him yet. I suspect he'd walk it out if necessary though.

The City plow driver used to live across the street from the City shop, so that wasn't an issue. When he moved he only moved 2 blocks, so he walked then too.

The next guy in line there is best buddies with the current county plow driver, so we need not explain more! He hasn't put any vehicles in watery graves yet, but as best I recall he was along for the ride on one trip with the fellow aforementioned!

The one we have now was living on the farm, and he plowed his way 9 miles to town with his farm tractor, to get too the snowplow, on an occasion or two. He's since moved to town though and only lives a block or two from the shop, so he's back in the walking mode.

However they get there, it's a thankless job, everyone thinks you should plow their street first, and no one understands why you always wait until they just finished shoveling the driveway out to plow their street and plug it up again!

Personally I was of the opinion that common sense should dictate that if there is snow in the street and the plow hasn't been by yet, it was either too early to shovel my drive, or I was going to have open the end of it up again! There were however enough folks that didn't have anything better to do than shovel their drive and complain, that the city put a hydraulic gate on snowplow, so they can shut the snow down as they cross your driveway and not block you in. And, then as in the case of mine, they manufacture one huge drift right on the North side of the drive, so I have 3 times as much to shovel next time it snows.

I'm about ready to move back to Florida, you don't have to worry about things like that there, and hurricanes only last a couple of days! Snow is here for months at a time!!!

LOL! I started too and at about page three I figured there wasn't any use... I did have to wonder why they didn't simply install a Top button at the bottom of the page on the Page 2 link! Sorta makes me wonder but someone wasn't real bored to create 10 pages of that! (o:?

It amazes me that I haven't found the time to log in for a couple of months (new business running me off my feet) and yet we are still trying to work out whether today is tomorrow or yesterday. I have to say that if we haven't worked it out by now (page 75) then it is likely that we are never going to find the answer. But it was good to see the same people still here and catch up on the slightly bizarre and off the wall comments.

If today could be tomorrow that would be good cause then I could have a couple of nights off work. Of course if it is really yesterday then I would like to speak to the person in charge about the number of hours I have been doing lately.

ctabuk · #**1861** (**permalink**) 02-08-2005, 10:00 AM

"Off the wall and Bizarre" Here? Where? Oh you mean clicken, she's she's fine poor girl. It all started when she lost her toilet which was in the kitchen I think. New Zealand, they say it is beautiful. Post some stuff on it kiwi!

thehappysmoker · #**1862** (**permalink**) 02-08-2005, 05:33 PM

Tomorrow today will be yesterday and tomorrow will be today (if it ever comes).

Today tomorrow is tomorrow, and today is today.
Yesterday tomorrow was today, and yesterday was the day before yesterday.
Is that so difficult ?
Now, what was all that about birds ?

Clicken · #**1863** (**permalink**) 02-10-2005, 02:36 PM

I'm sorry,... it sounds better when the bird says it. You know what else the little birdie said?

"Waa Ock... the jello is slipping away, the jello is slipping away... Waa Ock!"

And since today never ends there can never be a tomorrow or yesterday. Just because the lights go out doesn't mean that the day is over. If that was the case then everytime the electricity went out a new day would start, right?

And if a new day starts when the lights go on, would a new day start when you have a bright idea or when you finally 'get' a new concept? I see a lot of sunrises but very few sunsets and the lights are always on in my office, so....needless to say the lights never go out around here. And don't get me started on time , it's just an illusion like tomorrow and the number system it's based on.

And...if tomorrow never comes then everyday is our birthday and we never get any older because we were born today. (the next time you are asked if you were born today, say yes and completely confuse people!) So Happy Birthday everyone! You never get any older because you were born today, isn't that great? No more lying about your age gals!

And yes, I do think to much! ;)

but it is all meant in good fun, care to confuse the confused? :)

Good Question, I think we should start a thread on this, and I have not joined the forum yet. I said to you only the other year that if I got a time machine I would go into the future and come back and post on this very first thread. So if it appears, then my experiment has worked and today was yesterday as that is when I set off.

thehappysmoker · #**1866** (**permalink**) 02-14-2005, 12:08 PM

Well of course today was yesterday, but not until tomorrow. Welcome to the thread, whoever you are.

No, no, no, no starting all over again! Clicken you should be sent to the corner for even suggesting it! Oh, wait, you are..... have been...... should be? in the corner. To many of us have been sent to the corner lately. Guess we could try to stay out of trouble? Well,..... maybe tomorrow ;)

If today was tomorrow then it would be my birthday. Try to guess how old...

29 and holding? Same as last year? (or was that me?)

More or less the same age as my sister she says she is 29 and a few months.

In her case it is quite a few months, in the 100's

MarcieZoob · #**1874** (**permalink**) 03-04-2005, 08:33 AM

If today is today and not tomorrow, then I'm 44. My Mother is celebrating her 76th birthday today, too. I'm sure I was everything she ever wanted for her birthday that day, especially the 24 hours of labor part...

ctabuk · #**1875** (**permalink**) 03-04-2005, 09:26 AM

Happy Birthday, give us a kiss, now some cake, wine, yes please, hey it's nice here, have a seat, thanks I'll have that one, I'll just put it in the van.

Come on clicken, it's confetti time.

Just realised, 44 means 1961 hatch time, Year of the Buffalo, own business, outdoor type, loves animals, etc etc, Guess what Marcie, we are both Buffaloes, now someones going to do some buffalo pics with our heads on, but who cares. Happy Birthday

thehappysmoker · #**1876** (**permalink**) 03-05-2005, 03:23 AM

Oh no ! It's coming back to life. Oh well. A word from me will soon put a stop to that. The last one did.

(For a week or two). Maybe it will last this time.

In my book, that's a good thing...except for the running off a cliff part. I'll stick to grazing and trompling over some big bad cowboys.

HAPPY BIRTHDAY!

BELATED!

Had I known that a storm was going to wipe out my wireless and leave me stranded then, I would have done this in my sleep late Thursday night. (or was it early am Friday?)

I was soooo tired and decided to dream of the confetti that was to befall on Marcie's glorious day. Which I did and it was a lovely dream but that's a different thread.

The nightmare began when we woke Friday and our internet was not there. So I dreamed of the confetti some more and all through the day, another night and the next day as well. Would this dream ever end?:

Ooooh you should have seen misterscreenjeans, no maybe not a good thing for you to witness. I wasn't thrilled and it just got worse as the day progressed. Hopes of having it up before dark were fading and did eventually fizzle out.

Maybe you could hear or feel his pain as he blasted the air with RUSH and everything else in his collection. He did however manage to survive, we both did, and I see you did too!

But...

Year of the buffalo? It just figures! Who picks this stuff? Where do we send suggestions? This just won't do. Either I get another year or another animal. Does it have to be an animal? Great, one more thing to do.

sniff sniff... do you smell smoke?... Oh it's Happy! Did you grumble something? (His smoke signals must be getting crossed.)

Chinese Birth signs, Marcie and I share the same sign but different Earth signs she is a Metal Ox I am a Earth Ox "The Metal Ox will have strong clashes with people, will stick to their guns at all costs.

Strange thread! If you want something stranger, research the "Quantum Eraser" experiment where it appears that what you do tomorrow can influence what you do today! This is actually real science, but note the word "appears." if it really worked, I would send myself next weeks lotto numbers.

After reading that last post, I had to go lay down and figure out if this really is the rest of my life but I don't feel rested, I just feel like I lost a few yesterdays.

ctabuk · #**1883** (**permalink**) 03-21-2005, 08:34 AM

I've found Marcie's yesterdays. They were in Lost Luggage kiosk at Liverpool Street Station in London. I'm putting them on Ebay. I'm rich!!!

mikmik · #**1884** (**permalink**) 03-21-2005, 09:56 PM

I noticed the outline of the face of J.C. in the luggage in that pic on eBay.

(Hmmmm. Evidentally I surmised you grabbed someones luggage instead of Marcie's yesterdays, and put that on Ebay)

You don't Master, we are here to serve you, go to the small antiques shop, where you last admired a painting, and ask for the 'light up yours lamp'and the assistant will reply 'And right up yours' take the lamp and give it three rubs and Marcie Zoob will appear, and then your worries really begin.
