    A prehensile tail could be useful! Sometimes you just need a third "hand" so a tail would fit the bill just fine.

    It's just cold and raw here. I think I'll have a hot cocoa with some Rumplemintz and whipped cream.

    (Rumplemintz=really good peppermint Schnapps! Yum)

    Hey you, don't tell me there's no hope at all -
    Together we stand
    Divided we fall.

    I laugh, therefore? I am.

    Jim? Jim??? As in "It's worse than that, he's dead, Jim"? What have I missed.

    You got a two dollar bill? Can you scan it for me? I still don't believe that some of this bizarre currency you mention exists!

    Gee, you should have mentioned that when you were visiting, Karen, I could have showed you a real one instead of just a scanned one. As a matter of fact, I think we have several and I probably could have given you one!

    I can't believe I have frittered away the entire day! I've answered the phone a few times, but other than that, I haven't done a lick of work all day! Gotta love when the boss is on vacation.

    And to help celebrate, I think I'll have another bowl of those DOTDs, yes, all 18 again if you don't mind - thanks.

    G'day all,
    I've got to laugh at "thursdays". Genetics, tails, roasted cherries.
    Richard, I do believe Scotty was the miracle worker. -Hence Bone's comment.
    After the crazy week I've had, and with the temp hitting 30degC, a few Corona's are in order. Actually more than a few, I've allready started you see.

    Why do kitties wake you up at the crack of dawn - demand to be fed - and then they all go back to bed? 'I' don't get to go back to bed - no, I have to go to work and make money to feed these little orange beggers!!

    I may stop by later for a nice "Holiday" - thanks for the Pepsi, Richard!

    I'm not sure that you should, Laurie. Richard has already accused me of trying to make enough money to pay for a flight to the States! Rats! He cottoned on to my $2 bill counterfeiting scam far too quickly!

    I am a capitalist at heart.....counterfeiting is a little over my limit of civil disobedience!!!

    (Laurie get a big box and send me about 3,000 of them coins, O.K.?)

    DONE?

    Gini,
    You open your doors to the PT world and three orange kitties bother you?

    Oggy,

    That's why you have to put your ear to the door before opening it.....YOU NEVER know what will happen in here!

    Coronas? DONE!


    C&S,

    Bosses are too busy worrying to have a little 'phun'!

    K,
    Chocolate and friends, a winning combo!!

    Tray,

    A hot buttered rum? DONE!

    Mario and Possum are playing "fishing" out back in the pond....

    Yep! Two dollar bills really do exist! My Gram used to send me and my brother one on our birthdays! I still have one or two of them somewhere. I don't have a scanner or I'd prove it. You'll just have to trust me. !!!

    Can I get a LARGE cherry vanilla coke and 4 catnip teas???
    The UPS man just left off a one pound packet from one of the companies about their Medicare Prescription drug coverage. It will take forever to read all this stuff never mind understand it.

    LOL,

    The "jim" reference is to the Sci-Fi series, Star Trek.

    The doctor on the space ship was asked, by the captain, if a wounded crew member would survive... I think that he line he responds with is...

    " Dammit Jim, I'm a doctor not a miracle worker..."
    Someone will correct me- I know that's not the exact quote!

    Oh yeah!! Scan the bill and get sent to jail for counterfeiting.....Just take my word for it, OK??


    Gini's buying so....
    Pepsi for the little lady and roman holidays for the rest of us!!!

    DONE!

    T&P,

    A large bowl 'o Holidays!! DONE!

    MOFF,

    If enough of us tell her about the bills, she'll believe us!!!

    Large CVC and 4 cat nip teas!!

    I'll vouch for the 2 dollar bill. Along with the 1 dollar bill it's the only one that hasn't had a face lift.
