Thursday - 159 - GO GET IN LINE

**Jessika** · 05-10-2006, 07:22 PM

ok call me dumb... but I've been wondering this for months now... what IS this Thursday "ritual" of yours' that you all do??

**slick** · 05-10-2006, 07:34 PM

No question is a dumb question. Here's my explanation of it and I'm sure others will chime in.

Thursdays started out 3 years ago when Richard started a thread on a Thursday and opened up the "cyber" bar much like Cheers. From there it snowballed. It's turned into a place where we can come and enjoy good food, good friends and laughter, and the occasional Drink of the Day. The only requirement is the willingness to have fun and leave the "attitude" at the door. There are no political discussions or aguments allowed. The idea is come and sit down, relax by the fire and just chill.....or you can take part in the festivities.

We have a big fireplace and lots of applewood out back. Our mascots are Tray's Mario, Lady the pup belonging to Lady's Human, and Oggyflute's Possum. You have to be careful of Mario because he loves to eat cherries and throw the pits around. **ducks head** Just like that!!

Everyone is welcome and the only thing we ask newcomers to do is tell a joke the first time around. So...fire away and welcome.

I packed up all the good china yesterday, as Mario was eyeing it at a toy, and I just did;t want to take the chance.

No, Lady, the line dancers do NOT need to be herded, they are not cows, and while I know you're friends with the Border Collie across the street, you don;t need to be pickin' up his bad habits!

Slick, I may not be the most co-ordinated student you've evr had, and I'm in ssneakers, not cowboy boots, but I'm ready - teach away!

**Corinna** · 05-10-2006, 07:54 PM

I will watch since I have 2 left feet. I think I will have a DLC please. I'll sit on the the couch and not bother any one. Little sad today http://petoftheday.com/talk/showthread.php?t=104541

**Karen** · 05-10-2006, 07:58 PM

Lady, be a good girl, and go snuggle up to Corinna, okay? She needs some velvet-eared, black and white doggie love right now. Good girl, Lady.

Hugs to you, Corinna.

**gini** · 05-10-2006, 08:57 PM

Everyone is going left - and there I am going right - bumping into everybody.

Psst! You forgot the (un-named?) blue-orange hypoallergenic kitten!

(Did all the blue come off the lil' guy yet?)

Drink of the day sounds awesome! I love the fruity drinks (esp if it involves Malibu).

Ahha thanks!!

Ok well... my joke... one of my favorite "corny" jokes

Q: What do you call a cow who just gave birth??
A: De-calf-inated!

**Corinna** · 05-11-2006, 01:31 AM

OH groan.. I guess you are now offically one of the crazies here at the bar. Ask for any thing Richard can make it.
Hey by the way Richard have you lost the wacky news channel ? Haven't had one of the way way out there stories here in a while.
Hey Lady you are so soft and cuddly thanks. It's nice to have our own therapy dog here in the bar.

**Jessika** · 05-11-2006, 01:34 AM

OH groan eh? I feel welcomed!

**lbaker** · 05-11-2006, 08:30 AM

GROAN indeed

Line dancing eh? I'm still working on the "Teaberry Shuffle"

A bit early for a DOTD here but in keeping with the theme ~ how's about I rustle up a cowboy breakfast? Scrambled eggs, sausage, biscuits and gravy or Texas toast (or both?) and refried beans - very strong coffee of course.

**Tubby & Peanut's Mom** · 05-11-2006, 10:49 AM

Cowboy breakfast sounds fantastic!!! We once had pancakes and sausage at the top of one of the Black Hills in South Dakota. Took a horseback ride to the top, had breakfast, enjoyed the scenery, then rode the horses back down. BE-U-TEE-FUL morning and I don't think I've ever had a better breakfast! Something about the outdoors always makes food taste better.

I'll help with the pancakes, Laurie.

Line dancing.....hmmm.....never really been into it much because I'm like Gini - when everyone is going left, I'm going right.

But I'm willing to tr....oops, just tripped over my second left foot.

Here's a quick pick of our breakfast ride. Me & my horse....why do I always get the ones that one to stop to eat and/or drink? And Terry and I as we're coming back to the stables.
