[deepsand]

1932

Glad to see that you finally showed up for your shift!

Now I can take a break.

[ctabuk]

1933 - Hello Everybody - I'm here to tell you a happy story - but I don't know any - so tough luck!

All right, I do know one.

Once upon a time, in a far distant land lived a wicked witch named Dubbya. The End

Once upon a time, in a far distant land lived a wicked witch named Dubbya.
East ot West?

And, was that before or after Dorothy's visit?

[briguy]

1936

gonna have to google for "Dubbya" !

[ctabuk]

1937 Dubbya is the wicked witch of the North by South East by East West by Pi over X = D squared to the power of Z= 6/9 squared.
Hope that makes sense.

[Tubby]

1938

Littlehampton. . Yes! nice

[ctabuk]

1939 Hi Tubby, it's a long drive from Lincoln. My Mum's 90 today, so we took her out for lunch and she ate the lot!

[Dubbya]

1942 - I'll get you, my pretty, and your little dog too!

[Dubbya]

1943 - Sorry I couldn't come out to play yesterday, it was Victoria Day here in Canuckland.

"This day has been a national holiday in Canada since 1901, marking the beginning of the summer season in Canada when gardens are planted, summer resorts and parks are opened, and people open up their cottages."

[ctabuk]

1944 - we were not talking about you Dubbya, we were talking about the other Dubbya, you know the big chap with the axe, he fights polar bears and stuff like that.

[Dubbya]

May 19th, 1945 : Pete Townshend's birthday.



On an unrelated note, is this the guy you were talking about?

The year the Baby Boom started; 9 months after VJ Day, and there we were! :D


1937 Dubbya is the wicked witch of the North by South East by East West by Pi over X = D squared to the power of Z= 6/9 squared.
Hope that makes sense.
Yup; just as I suspected. ;)

[Dubbya]

1937 Dubbya is the wicked witch of the North by South East by East West by Pi

1947 - Mmmmmm. I like Pi!

[ctabuk]

1952 Spammers are getting more and more Stupid. I got this in my spam bin

Dear memmber, PayPal account was changed !

The stupid sod cannot even spell!!!

[Dubbya]

1953 - I got one of those yesterday...

Seeing that the URL ended in ".ru", I remember thinking that this had to be legitimate, so I followed the link and logged in using the following information:

For some reason, the changes have yet to take effect. :rolleyes:

[WickedGoddess]

[emps]

My last post was #31

This is #32

It seems the only reason for these posts

[emps]

Shall i continue..continually...non stop to 10,000?

or more.

Is this the golden path to glory?

[deepsand]

Not unless you number each post 1 greater than the previous poster, which is now

1958

[deepsand]

1959


1955-- back from heaven and hell, wazup guys?
And, none the worse for the wear, I see. :wink:

[ctabuk]

1960 And so we enter the swinging sixties - and if you were there and can remember it, then you were not there.

[Tubby]

1961, I remember it well, It was on a Thursday.

[ctabuk]

1962 Ah - A bearded man - beware of bearded men!! Run for the hills!!!

[Dubbya]

Never mind the bearded men, beware of Deepsand's great aunt Sophie. A charming woman who could dead lift 1963 pounds and bake the most delicious mincemeat pies.

http://farm3.static.flickr.com/2346/2081436825_2e4ed81400.jpg

[deepsand]

Actually, Dubbya, that's my twin sister, dressed as our great aunt Sophie, at a family reunion in 1964

PS : She's really pissed at me for giving you a copy. :(

[Tubby]

1965 - http://www.webproworld.com/groups/baby-boomers.html

WPW should have at least one members group. .

[deepsand]

I second that.

Now, if only I could remember 1966.

[ctabuk]

1967 That picture obviously came out of Dubbya's family album.

[Dubbya]

1968 - All right, you caught me. It's not Deepsand's twin sister, it's my third uncle Stan and the photo was taken at Grandpa's Antique Photo Studio (http://www.grandpasphotos.com).

Evidently, my aunt Nancy's first two husbands didn't pan out either, though I can't reason why.

[deepsand]

1969

Well, since it's show-and-tell time, the truth is that Dubbya and I are related.

I'm My Own Grandpa - Video (http://www.metacafe.com/watch/54702/im_my_own_grandpa/)




I am my own grandpa

Many, many years ago when I was just twenty-three,
I was married to a widow, she was pretty as could be.
This widow had a grown-up daughter who had hair of red
And my father fell in Love with her. Soon they too were wed.

This made my dad my son-in-law--changed my very life!
My daughter was my mother because she was my father's wife!
To complicate the matter even though it brought me joy,
I soon became the father of a bouncing baby boy.

My little baby he then became a brother-in-law to Dad.
Well, that made him my uncle--made me very sad!
Because if he was my uncle then he also was a brother
To the widow's grown-up daughter, who, of course, was my stepmother.

[CHORUS]

My father's wife then had a son who kept them on the run.
And, of course, he became my grandchild because he was my daughter's son.
My wife is now my mother's mother and this makes me blue
Because although she is my wife, she's my grandmother too!

[CHORUS]

Now if my wife is my grandmother, well, then I am her grandchild,
And every time that I think about this, it nearly drives me wild!
Because now I have become the strangest case that you ever saw
As husband of my grandmother, I am my own grandpa!

CHORUS:

I am my own grandpa! I am my own grandpa!
It sounds funny, I know, but it really is so!
Oh, I am my own grandpa!

[Dubbya]

Wasn't that written in 1970?

[deepsand]

May have been 1971; I'll check the old Family Bible, as soon as Aunt Tillie's done in the out-house.

[douger]

1972 and nothing better to do?

[deepsand]

Don't know that if it's better, or not, but I'm off to whack down 1973 or more blades of grass before Officer Opie writes me another citation.

[ctabuk]

1974 - we bought our first ever brand new car.

[deepsand]

1974 - we bought our first ever brand new car.
Same here in 1975, although it was a '74 model (Datsun B210 Hatchback.)

Were it not for the fact that the Japanese had then not yet figured out how fast the salt used here on Winter roads eats through metal, so that the undercoating was virtually useless, I'd still have that car. :(

[emps]

Ah! the seventies. Those where the years of my hottest rides. The car,1974 was a Holden HQ wagon

[Dubbya]

On behalf of emps, who missed his opportunity to increase the count, I'll post 1976.

Hope you all had a great weekend... it's raining here this morning. I must have been pelted by no less than 1977 while walking from the car to the office door.

On a related note, I'd like to slap the silly git who fertilized my lawn while I was at work. Thankfully the riding mower is already prepped and ready for another busy weekend.

Oh No! Does the lawn now read DUBBYA? Thanks for maintaining continuity on my behalf.

Did i really miss 1978 I mean really?

[deepsand]

1979 already?

Gee, only 31 more and we'll be in the future! :-o

[WickedGoddess]

1980-- I get so busy but sleepy:(

[emps]

1980-- I get so busy but sleepy:(
Then you where just a teeny weeny little goo goo bub i guess. Look at you now you are a big girl. I mean i dont mean big.

1982 - Godd morning everyone - another week!!
1983 Good morning to you sir..and good evening to others like myself 10 hours ahead

[Dubbya]

Did i really miss 1978 I mean really?

If you were a child of the sixties, chances are you may have missed a year somewhere along the line. Who knows, maybe it was 1984.

[ctabuk]

1985 - What was I doing in 1985? I know - but I'm not telling.

[Dubbya]

1986 - Expo '86 was hosted in Vancouver, BC.

[emps]

1986 - Expo '86 was hosted in Vancouver, BC.

1987 was in between Vancouver and Brisbane expos.

[emps]

1986 - Expo '86 was hosted in Vancouver, BC.

1988..The year of Brisbane hosting the World Expo,and an event they still talk about here.

[deepsand]

Didn't make Expo '86, but did quite enjoy Montreal during Expo '67, 22 years prior to 1989.

[Dubbya]

Didn't make Expo '86, but did quite enjoy Montreal during Expo '67, 22 years prior to 1889.

Wasn't 1867 the year that the British North America Act received royal assent and the Dominion of Canada was formed? You remember all that?? Ah right, you're a vampire, that's why you love to count so much....Lolz..

http://i519.photobucket.com/albums/u351/briskiski/count-1.jpg

We are now at 1990, mwah, ah, ah, ah....

[deepsand]

Drats, I've been outed. I'll get you, my pretty. You'll not live to see 1991 plus 20.

http://davelandweb.com/gallery/images/WickedWitch1.jpg

[Dubbya]

1992 - Boo! Ya scared the spit right outta me....

[emps]

The lady hasnt changed much since we last met at the grab a grannie night in our local pub in 1993

[deepsand]

1994 broom splinters later, the lady inquires as to when she might expect the return of her unmentionables.

[WickedGoddess]

I bet.. in 1981 you where just a year old

I was not even born by that time yet...:rolleyes:

1995---I lost my dog:(

[deepsand]

That you recall the year speaks of the depth of your affection for that friend & companion.

Thankfully, 1996 was not one of the years in which the same happened to me.

[ctabuk]

1997 - I've not been very well. My wife say's I'm disgruntled.















































http://i5.photobucket.com/albums/y169/ctabuk/SWINEFEVER.jpg

OH - and to the person who gave me a red rep point for being silly - get a life - this is the breakroom!!!!!!!! Grrrrrrrrrrrrr

[Dubbya]

Sheesh, ctabuk!

Put a shirt on, ya hippie!

And now, on an unrelated note,

1998 - Was the year my daughter first graced us with her presence.

[deepsand]

Here's hoping you're becoming more gruntled, ctabuk.

Perhaps you might try partying like it's 1999.

[deepsand]

2000

Time for a "best red rep rcvd." contest. My favorites are

"I think you make baby jesus sad"

"every time you type, a kitten dies, you bastard!!"

:p

[Dubbya]

Deep, with your penchant for enlivened discussion, I'd assume you may already have received well over 2001 red rep points.

Did I just hear a kitty scream? ;)

[deepsand]

No kitten that, but just me stepping on my ****.

To quote an old Pennsylvania Dutch saying, "The hurrier I go, the behinder I get."

2002, the last palindromic number (base 10) until we reach 2112.

[WickedGoddess]

2003--- My second year in college... We used to chase boys then lol:D

[deepsand]

"used to"? :confused:

Meaning you've stopped? :shock:

2004 - my 1st year here at WPW. My, how time flies when you're ... .

[Tubby]

2005 45 year anniversary since I was chased by girls.

[deepsand]

2006

Presumably, though, given the the resemblance to me, you're still being chased by women. :wink:

Sorry to hear that. :(

Now, to boldly go where no man has gone - into the future!

[ctabuk]

2010 Let's play 'predictions' We all get blown to smithereens. Well there are several interpretations of that. :D

[Dubbya]

2011 -Never make predictions, especially about the future.
Casey Stengel

[deepsand]

More pleonasms. (Not be be confused with neoplasm.)

Yogi Bera :


"It’s tough to make predictions, especially about the future."

"The game isn’t over until it’s over."

"You can see a lot by observing."

"When you come to a fork in the road, take it."

"You can observe a lot by just watching."


2012

[emps]

more lemon saps's (not to be confused with pleonasm's)

Of course there are'nt any, but how clever am i?

2013

[deepsand]

No lemon sap?

What are those 2014 droplets that I squeeze from its skin? :confused:

[kgun]

2015

ManU lost David:sad:

[deepsand]

Not to worry; we'll find him by 2016. :grin:

[WickedGoddess]

2017-- I'll be 33 then, hope I won't change that much!;)

[ctabuk]

2018 - Wall to wall sunshine here in the UK - At wembley during Saturday's FA Cup the temerature reached 44c - That's hot!

[Dubbya]

2019 - A cool weekend here, perfect for doing some yard work... We got a nice light overnight rain too. On the bright side, the cool weather has slowed the hatching of our national bird, the mosquito.

[deepsand]

2020

The mosquito is also the State bird of Minnesota.

Looks like all are having some decent weather for a change.

[Dubbya]

2021 - scientists predict that the shrinking of microchips roughly every 18 months (Moore's Law) will reach a fundamental limit by 2021 (as per Wikipedia).

[deepsand]

For the 2024th time, please ask before borrowing my clothing.

Who's been wearing is a very important factor in determining the best cleaning method. ;)

[emps]

No way would i wear that shirt.Tho it may be appropriate in 2025. (in reality the sentence does not apply to myself).

[WickedGoddess]

2026--- Cruising at the Mediterranean will be my cup of tea.

[oneofmanytims]

Speaking of tea, did you hear about the Squaw who drank 2,027 cups of tea and drowned in her tea pee ?

[deepsand]

2028

What a peetea.

[ctabuk]

2029 It's the European Elections tomorrow in the UK - bye bye Labour Party

[Dubbya]

2030 - It's tough to decide whom one should vote for. These days, each party seems just as capable of doing a craptacular job as the next. ;)

[CHUMPSFROMOXFORD@YAHOO.CO]

2031. The Cubs still haven't won the World Series.

[emps]

Chumps, what exactly is the world series? 2032

2035 UK Politics - The long knives are out! Will Gordon survive!

[emps]

Latest reports suggest he will be gone tomorrow or the next day. 2036

[ctabuk]

2037 - It's news frenzy over here. I find it all quite comical - except for one thing - my wife Leslie is an official Government Stakeholder Broker - and the funds that have been promised over, and over again since October of LAST year - are still not in place.

[deepsand]

2038

Do you refer to the Stakeholder Pension Plan introduced in 2001? If so, funds promised to whom by who?

[Digital_shubhi]

2039

I will be an old man at that time. :p

[ctabuk]

2040 - that's definitely an avatar then :D

No Deep, it's the Governments Homebuy Scheme - details in my sig.

Well, resignations, lost seats -'I'm staying put' from GB - he has a complex.

[Dubbya]

2041 - Another day, another 72 cents. That's $1.00 minus taxes.

[deepsand]

2042

4th straight day of duck weather here. If this continues, I'll need a tractor to mow the lawn.

Dubbya - Thanks for the 28 cents; send more when you can.

ctabuk - If I've got it right - no bet here - your wife is what we here refer to as a Mortgage Broker.

[Dubbya]

2051 - It's me, hiya Tubby.

Would you please tell your boys to quit jumping their motorcycles over my garden? My wife's in there weeding the peas today.

What's that? Tell her to stick the peas where?? Well, that's just nasty! (*click) Tubby? Tubby??? Hello??

Humph! I wonder what's eatin' him today?

"Better to get up late and be wide awake than to get up early and be asleep all day." -- Anonymous :D

[emps]

Just heard..No 10's front door is bolted on the inside and hammering sounds could be heard,like someone is fixing boards across. I guess the sounds of heavy furniture moving will soon be heard erecting the barricades. The whole 2057 pieces could be used to keep the wolves at bay.

BTW..the name Gordon is generally not at the top of the popularity polls this week. Ramsey is getting a bit of media stick over here right now...Give it to em Gordy.

[Dubbya]

2058 - Sorry I'm late! At least I'm well rested!

[deepsand]

2059

No apology needed.

In case you missed it above, "Better to get up late and be wide awake than to get up early and be asleep all day."

[Doc]

Well, I'll jump in with 2060. I'll be 108 that year! :D

Hopefully, I'll have grown out of my second childhood by then.

Or not.;)

2063 WPW has a new Moderator - Introducing the one, the only (Thank heavens for small mercies) a huge round of applause, for DUBBYA

Well deserved.:D

[Dubbya]

2064 - Thanks Ctabuk! Tell me, how many people can I invite to the coronation ceremony? I can't wait for the red carpet interview with Abby Johnson! This is so exciting.

I've already picked up my tuxedo.
http://www.everytshirt.com//images/products/Funny_T-shirts/medium/Tuxedo-T-shirt.jpg

[ctabuk]

2065 - I have taken the tux to my tailors. Here's the result for wearing
http://i5.photobucket.com/albums/y169/ctabuk/Tuxedo-T-shirt.jpg

You are allowed only 33,786 guests. I am in charge of all official WPW gatherings, and at only $35 per head - that's $1,182,510 - it's not cheap to become a mod.
You have my pay pal account details. Thanks David

[Dubbya]

Hi Ctabuk, thanks so much for making all the arrangemnts!

I hope you don't mind if I send you monthly subscription payments of$20.66

[Doc]

2067 pats on the back for Dubbya! Congrats! Your headache is our gain. :D

Dubbya : Will your place accomodate 2068 people for the after-party? :D

Never lose your inner child, for there lies the source of curiousity, without which we are condemned to meaningless repetition.

In that case, I'm in good shape, deepsand! ;)

[Dubbya]

2071 - No worries DeepSand. I've saved a table for you and your friends. Bring one casserole and a desert.

[Doc]

2072

I'll be glad to show up a little early and help out with the valet parking, dubbya! (I could use the tips!);)

[deepsand]

2073


Bring one casserole and a desert.
If you can advise re. what dishes will, if not repel, at least not attract the local fauna (mosquitoes included), I'll get right on that . I am, of course, assuming the the flora there are not overly rapacious; please advise if otherwise.

[WickedGoddess]

yay Congrats to Dubbya!! muah!

[Tubby]

well. I think Dubbya, is going to look quite silly when he starts moderating. I have no doubt he can wear two hats just that the old 'mere member' hat takes up most of the avatar already.

he will need 2075% more space .

P.S. wikked Goddess got so exited she forgot to ad a number - Maybe Dubbya can do that to girls?

[Doc]

2076

[ctabuk]

2077 We heard a strange but true story yesterday, when Bristol Zoo opened it's doors a Council owned car par office was opened and charged cars £1.00 and coaches £5.00 - nothing strange in that, in fact the guy that opened up everyday was an extremely pleasant chap. 25 years that little car park office was open, then one day it disappeared. The Zoo phoned the Council and asked for a replacement. The Council said 'not our job'. Now on a tiny island somewhere, is that parking attendant. He'd pocketted every penny for 25 years.

[Tubby]

2078
last time I visited Bristol Zoo was in 1967. I expect Its full of 'Old Age animals' now

But it is heart warming to know that private enterpise still lives..

[Dubbya]

2079 - Ctabuk, I love that story!! I'm thinking that we might do something similar at my coronation ceremony. Doc, can I borrow your red vest?

I've always found that if you're going to pull a stunt, it's always best to just walk right in, smile and act like you're supposed to be there. As long as everything looks legit and you appear to know what you're doing, most folks will buy in. Best imposter ever? Frank Abagnale Jr.

Great story, Ctabuk! Ya gotta admire the chutzpah! You're right, Dubbya - if you act like you know what you're doing, and that you belong there, most people will never question you. And if they do, respond with an air of authority, and most will buckle!

You're welcome to the red vest, guy. It seems to have shrunk a bit, anyway. Or maybe it was that slab of cheesecake I had for dessert last night. ;)

[Doc]

2081
Dubbya, Abagnale's name rang a bell, but I had to Wiki him to refresh my memory. You're right...that guy wrote the book!:D

[deepsand]

Now on a tiny island somewhere, is that parking attendant. He'd pocketted every penny for 25 years.
And a splendid job he did, earning every one of those 2082 quid.

2083 seems like not much, considering how long this thread's been running. ;)

[deepsand]

That's 'cause of the 2084 strict requirements for participation. :lol:

[TrafficProducer]

2085

Charged cars £1.00 and coaches £5.00; how much in total?

Estimate, check the maths;
300 cars a day =£300.00 a day
5 coaches a day = £25.00 a day

That is 325.00 a day

7 days * 52 days ay year *25 years)=9100

9100 * 350.00 =£3,185,000 not bad and Tax free as well.

[deepsand]

2086

Less operating expenses; and, perhaps, even tax(es).

[ctabuk]

2087 Glorious weather here, been digging and not in digg!!

[deepsand]

2088

Still trying to dry out here.

The young mother-to-be rabbit who's nesting in my yard is none too happy with the heavy rains we've had over the past several days. Even though I left a large un-mown patch around her temporary home, the rains have severely flattened the stand of grass and clover that served as her protective cover. And, the tiny burrow has turned quite soft. Only time will see how she makes out.

No sooner had I posted this, and the heavens once more opened up; I'm afraid she'll end up aborting.

[Doc]

2089

Rabbit, eh?

Tasty stuff, prepared right.

If you need a recipe for preparing it wrong, PM me. I've got a million of 'em! ;)

[deepsand]

2090

Equally tasty : Squirrel, Grouse, Woodchuck, Pheasant, Quail, Woodcock, Rock Dove (Pigeon), Goose, and various Duck.

[Doc]

In greater Asia, there are 2091 different recipes for critters we consider to be housepets.

At least SOMEONE finally figured out what cats are good for! :D

[deepsand]

I'm hiding your post from my mother; she'd probably think that I put you up to it. ;)

[Doc]

2093 ('cause I'm sure deepsand will realize he forgot, and will edit his post ;))

I'm afraid I'm well known for reciprocating the disdain with which cats view us. You mother, saint that she is, will understand, I hope.

[TrafficProducer]

1094 :

Less operating expenses= tickets, small shed, cups of tea....

Maybe they got a small business grant, LOL

[Doc]

2095

TrafficProducer, you just lost 1,000 posts! ;)

The guy probably got a lot better retirement than he would have gotten if he HAD worked for the Council. :D

Damned cats stole another number? :(

Saint? Not knowing her as I do, that's easy for you to say! ;)

[Doc]

Damned cats stole another number? :( Sneaky little buggers, ain't they?



Saint? Not knowing her as I do, that's easy for you to say! ;)

They're ALL saints, DS, if for no other reason than having reared us, resisting the occasional desire to throttle us beneath the staircase! ;)

[deepsand]

With all due respects to mothers in general, had it not been for my father, my sisters and I would have been physically abused well beyond that which we suffered at the hands of our mother. This is a woman who has, in some fashion or another, abused nearly everyone within easy and constant reach. Despite her publicly holding herself out to be a deeply religious person, she is in fact one of the most mean spirited persons to ever draw breath.

[Doc]

2098

Sorry to hear that, DS.

On a more upbeat note...I was awakened this morning by my wife, eager to give me a Father's Day gift, which, of course, I graciously accepted. An hour or so later, my daughter came downstairs and gave me a big hug and wished me Happy Father's Day, too.

Now, I can certainly return the hug to my daughter. And I would be quite pleased to return the "gift" my wife gave me...in a couple of hours. But I'm faced with a moral question:

Should I tell them NOW, that Father's Day is NEXT Sunday, or should I wait until next Saturday? :twisted:

[deepsand]

2099

Hm-mm; that's most peculiar. How to explain that not 1, but 2 females, who are well known for recalling when such occasions are to a degree that far exceeds that of we men, should both be here celebrating a week in advance?

Might there be a hidden message here? Do they know something about next weekend that you/we don't? :confused:

:shock: Thanks a LOT, DS!

I'll sleep with one eye open all week, just in case. :-|

[deepsand]

2101

Good idea; that way you'll see them sneaking out in the middle of the night. :mrgreen:

[WickedGoddess]

2102-- Sorry guys, as what Doc said, I just got so excited that I forgot to count!:D

[deepsand]

Yep; I had to go back and edit my 2 previous posts to include the counts. :grin:

[WickedGoddess]

2104^ You forgot to count too... again!:D

[Doc]

2102-- Sorry guys, as what Doc said, I just got so excited that I forgot to count!:grin:
2105

No problem, Goddess. Tubby already pointed out that it was entirely Dubbya's fault. :mrgreen:

2106--No doubt it's his fault!:p

[deepsand]

2107

In my case, it's just that I am occasionally given to what an associate refers to as "brain farts" when trying to be too poly-synchronous. :(

[Doc]

2108

I think we're all entitled to the occasional brain-fart now & then, deepsand.

Of course, some people do abuse the privilege. :mrgreen:

[deepsand]

That's okay; with my severe anosmia, I tend to not notice. ;)

Also, it takes a very great deal of pleasure out of eating. :cry:

[Doc]

2110

(You forgot again, DS :p)

I can imagine some situations where anosmia might be a blessing in disguise.

In fact, one VERY brief blind date in my younger days, comes to mind! http://fc00.deviantart.com/fs9/i/2006/065/f/8/_bodyodor__by_maraudersmap5210.gif

[ctabuk]

2111 I had a blind date once - it transpired that she was an - no - I dare not. I like it too much here, you'll just have to guess.

[Dubbya]

http://tbn1.google.com/images?q=tbn:b949099_xt9KrM:http://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/thumb/d/d8/Texas_FM_2112.svg/384px-Texas_FM_2112.svg.png

Mornin' all. Hope you enjoyed your weekend!

Ctabuk, sorry your blind date didn't pan out.

[ctabuk]

2113 - No, she wasn't a gold digger. She stood there radiant, her long flowing hair reached her waist, and that was from her armpits. :D

[Dubbya]

2114 - Evidently, she was quite attractive too.

http://www.talkingcock.com/html/cockmovie/Armpit%20Hair%20Big.jpg

[Doc]

2115

A lot of guys are leery of blind dates. I don't understand that. It's really just a matter of making friends with their dog, before you get too frisky.:D

[deepsand]

2116

Got it; pet the dog before petting the cat.

One question, though - what if the cat's a dog?

[Dubbya]

2117 - Put the cat's head in a bag. Preferably a paper bag...

[Doc]

2118

Step 1: Give the dog a bone
Step 2: Please enter your birthdate here to certify that you are age 18 or older, in order to view step 2.

DOB = 70th Anniversary of Custer's Last Stand.

[Dubbya]

2120 - The 70th anniversary of Custer's funeral.

[deepsand]

No funeral until the year before 2121?

And, since you know this, obviously you're the one who made off with Mr. Peabody's Wayback machine. I'll have you know that use of such was promised to me, way back when. :cry:

[Doc]

2122...23...24...oops! My ADD took over.

OOH! Look! A butterfly!

[deepsand]

Shades of 2-Tape Autocoder! The IBM 1401 was a truly great computer.

The Konica Model 2125 is a copier.

[Doc]

Last night, my lovely wife jerked the covers away from me 2,126 times!

Time for twin beds!:D

Sydney in Australia has a post code called 2127.

[oneofmanytims]

there's more than one way to skin a cat. there's actually 2,228 documented methods. For a full description of each one PM Doc.

[oneofmanytims]

AAAAGGGGHHHHHH I lost count with typo !!!!!!!! am I expelled now ?

[Doc]

oneofmanytims, if you'll pm me your email address, I'll plug it into my forwarder, so you can begin screening the 2,129 requests that have come in for you.;)

[deepsand]

Make that 2130 requests for him.

[oneofmanytims]

Woah-hah . .. had no idea there was so much interest ! Please go to: 2131waystoskinacat.blogspot.com. My adwords account has gone off the map !

[emps]

2087 Glorious weather here, been digging and not in digg!!

The spuds! Ah..as they say in Lincs "the Aaansurr loys in the soyel".

Well. they used to say that maybe 2132 days ago. Also didnt someone used to say " heya goda loyt boy"

[ctabuk]

2133 - that's how many spuds we picked last night, it also relates to the calories in each 20llb spud. We grow 'em big in Lincs.

[Dubbya]

2134 - In mother Russia, potato digs you!

[Doc]

2135 different gin joints...and you had to come into THIS one!:rolleyes:

[Dubbya]

Well, ctabuck, at least my next door neighbor is getting a thrill out of it! :D

Full Frontal Folk (http://www.fullfrontalfolk.com/)

[WickedGoddess]

2145---I'm such a busy trainor :(

[deepsand]

2146

We'll just have to take your word on that. ;)

[ctabuk]

2147 - So now that we are all as nature intended, we can watch the first movie of the day. Naked Spur
Doc will play Doc on Holiday - Dubbya will be the horse - deepsand will be the gunslinger - WickedGoddess and I will play the hotel room testers.

[Dubbya]

2148 - I don't mind playing the horse, but this time can I be the front end?

[Doc]

2149

On holiday?

Who's paying for this trip? I'm on a limited income! (aren't we all?;))

[deepsand]

2150

You've got an income? :shock:

We paladins are lucky to get a stable to sleep in, and maybe a parting kiss from a pretty lady before we're off to the next job. :cry:

[Doc]

2151
I wouldn't exactly call it an income...more like retirement savings.

And they're dwindling rapidly.

I COULD go look for gainful employment, but I can't very well leave before we hit the 2 million mark, can I?





2150

You've got an income? :shock:

We paladins are lucky to get a stable to sleep in, and maybe a parting kiss from a pretty lady before we're off to the next job. :cry:

[deepsand]

2152

Well, that's one thing we gun slingers don't have to worry about - planning for retirement. :D

[ctabuk]

2153 No, when a gunslinger retires they withdraw! :D

[oneofmanytims]

ahhhhhhhhhhh .. . . .. 2154. The Perfect Number

[Doc]

2155

If more gunfighters had practiced withdrawal, Samuel Colt might have died a pauper!

[deepsand]

2156

Less than 24 hr. until the real Fathers Day, and you're still with us, Doc! :shock:

I'm pretty certain that ctabuk meant withdraw from life, not from the profession.

Now, as a gun slinger has to maintain a firm resolve, and a straight aim, I'm off to accept Miss Kitty's offer of some help with target practice. :D

[Dubbya]

2157 - Ah, Miss Kitty.. she might be 96, but she's still a hottie! lolz...

Tell her I said hello, would ya?

[Doc]

2158

Miss Kitty was a hotty, but much too old for me, at 96.

Besides, Jessica Alba is a demanding taskmaster! I must save my energy!;)

[deepsand]

2159

Dubbya - At my request, she's on her way to your place at this very moment, so you can tell her up close and personal. Just don't do anything that I wouldn't. ;)

[Doc]

2160


2159

Dubbya - At my request, she's on her way to your place at this very moment, so you can tell her up close and personal. Just don't do anything that I wouldn't. ;)

Hmmmm...

Why do I feel as though that doesn't eliminate much?:cool:

[deepsand]

2161

Most likely because it doesn't! :D

As for yourself, how did things unfold re. the faux Fathers Day of last weekend?

[Doc]

2162

I got a wake-up call from my daughter, who's off in Tampico for the week, which was a nice surprise.

But I guess my wife figured she had already given me ONE FD gift, so I was out of luck on that score. :(

[deepsand]

2163

I'm still curious as to the week early events. Was it perhaps the case that, knowing that your daughter would be away this weekend, that such was deliberate?

As for your wife's actions - or, more precisely, inaction :cry: - of today, it seems rather obvious that she could have readily whipped up something using no more than a few renewable organic resources readily available to all living primates. ;)

[WickedGoddess]

2164-- Early Sunday eve nightout! gotta go for a drink... hugs and kisses to all of you guys!;)

[deepsand]

When you're done socializing, perhaps around 2165 hrs. (that's 10:05 pm,) you'll stop by and finish trimming my shrubbery; I'll leave the post lamp on for you. :D

[WickedGoddess]

Oh but I'll be gone the whole night, how about tomorrow at exactly 21:66?

[deepsand]

I've an early alarm Tue. morning; so, as long as you understand that I need to be in bed by 2167. that will be fine.

[WickedGoddess]

alright got it! you'll leave me all alone in the shrubbery all night... I'll see to finish everything at 21:68 in the morning.. That is 12 hours work and 1 minute. Oh btw, night shift differential is needed since it's hard to work in graveyard shift. Hope I still look best in the morning:(

[deepsand]

Actually, one minute before 2169 hrs. the next day would be 24 hrs & 1 minute.

And, speaking of BTW, I pay by the bush, not by how long it takes to do the job. No one's complained yet. :lol:

[WickedGoddess]

oh yes you're right... As you can see I've got a hangover and a brain fart... I think I need to have a decent sleep. I'll take a leave, please? will see yah at 2170 tomorrow.

[deepsand]

Sleep is good; although, 2171 minutes of it might be deemed a coma.

Enjoy.

[xmichellex]

2172


-Michelle-

[WickedGoddess]

^^Don't worry I won't sleep the whole day lol... I will pamper my self the whole day before working at night. I might be late coz I have an appointment with the hair dresser. Be there at 2173.

[Doc]

2174 years in a row, I've been awarded the best-kept-garden prize, only to be ousted by a couple of young insomniacs like you! Outrageous!:mad:

[deepsand]

Young? At 2175, I'll take that as a compliment on my good looks. :D

[ctabuk]

2176 Going back to Gunsmoke and Miss Kitty - who remembers 'Chester'? Marshall Dillions sidekick. The character was based on Batt Masterson who was Wyat Earps deputy. Who played Chester?

[Dubbya]

2177 - Dennis Weaver played "Chester Goode" on Gunsmoke... I was just wee tad though ( I remember Festus much more clearly). I remember Dennis Weaver much more from his stint as McCloud... lolz.. riding his horse down the street and that sheepskin coat...

http://comingsoon.net/nextraimages/mccloud-dvd.jpg

Oh, I see he had a few LP's out as well. Star of stage, screen and a recording artist? Not sure but I think he sang Opera. ;)

[ctabuk]

2178 OK, what did Chester and Bat Masterson have in common? Just seen on a search that it was one t - Bat

[Doc]

2179

Yep! Dennis Weaver, not to be confused with Charlie Weaver, of Hollywood Squares fame.

Well, maybe "fame" is a little bit of a stretch. :rolleyes:

To carry the trivia one more step...who played Doc? (No, it wasn't me!)
