HAPPY BIRTHDAY PETTALK!!

I don't visit as much as I should these days. But you are still the best site around.

Here's to all who have made PT special.

to "Thursdays" of course. (background for newer folks - "Thursdays" sprung up at the beginning of the Iraq war. As you can guess by some of this years heated political threads, the early war threads could be quite passionate and divisive and we simply needed a place to wind down where attitudes were checked at the door and politics were not allowed.)

To the philisophy that "every pet is special" - and so is every pettalker.

Congratulations!!

It's freezing here. I need hot chocolate - fast! Oh, and catnip tea for the gang, please.

We had tons and tons and tons from hurricane Gustav left overs. Now I have a leaky roof, right over the furnace. sigh

Repair guy coming tomorrow. Oh, what fun!!!

HAPPY BIRTHDAY PET TALK!!!

[RICHARD]

G'day All, and Happy Birthday Pet Talk.

Something different Richard I think.

Aah, a sparkling shiraz, Seppelts 98 would do, and a slice of black forrest cake, perhaps some fresh strawberrys too, just to round out the palate.

Oh! Man! I have to work here.......

We rarely serve a drink with a 'z' in it!

One shiraz, glittering! BF cake and stome fresh berries? done!

STE,

[catland]

ops - you are right, I forgot to place an order.

Well, since my non-cyber person has to watch her cholesterol these days, how about a slice of cheesecake, some buffalo wings, and a piña colada

[davidpizzica]

RICHARD, you can take care of the fancy drinks (especially the ones with a "Z" in 'em!) and I'll be the master of the seement mixer!

[cassiesmom]

Thanks - and newcomers, the only admission price to this virtual bar is you need to tell one (clean) joke. I'm not saying it has to be funny, but you've gotta try, anyway!

Here's a nurse joke. In 20 years of nursing I've heard some great ones, but I like this one because it's clean...
Patient: "Nurse, I just swallowed my pillow!"
Nurse: "How do you feel?"
Patient: "A little down in the mouth."
-----
My niece, who is 17, an honor student, and blonde, collects blonde jokes. This is her favorite.

First experience horse riding

A blonde decides to learn and try horse back riding unassisted without prior experience or lessons. She mounts the horse with great effort, and the tall, shiny horse springs into motion.

It gallops along at a steady and rhythmic pace, but the blonde begins to slip from the saddle. Out of shear terror, she grabs for the horse's mane but cannot seem to get a firm grip. She tries to throw her arms around the horse's neck, but she slides down the side of the horse anyway. The horse gallops along, seemingly oblivious to its slipping rider.

Finally, giving up her frail grip, she leaps away from the horse to try and throw herself to safety.

Unfortunately, her foot has become entangled in the stirrup. She is now at the mercy of the horse's pounding hooves as her head is struck against the ground again and again. As her head is battered against the ground, she is mere moments away from unconsciousness or even death when Frank, the Wal-Mart manager runs out to shut the horse off.

It's rained steadily all day. Do we have a pot of coffee going?

[Bengalz]

We've got a deal with the mayor for this week......those caught lurking in Thursday's without posting get an un-escorted trip to the L+F

This frightened me more than anything Richard could possibly do So..... in honour of Pet Talk, I'd love a mimosa

HAPPY BIRTHDAY PETTALK - We you !!!

[Moesha]

Here's my joke. It's not funny, but I tried. And in keeping with the theme started by cassiesmom I'll go with a hospital related one:

The famous Olympic skier Picabo Street (pronounced Peek-A-Boo) is not
just an athlete. She is now a nurse currently working at the Intensive
Care Unit of a large metropolitan hospital. She is not permitted to
answer the hospital telephones. It caused too much confusion when she
would answer the phone and say,

Picabo, ICU

[Karen]

Awww, that is a cute one! Here, have some blueberry cake!

[Moesha]

Oh yum! I love blueberries! Thank you muchly!

[Lady's Human]

It's rained steadily all day. Do we have a pot of coffee going?

We ALWAYS have a pot of coffee brewing in here. After all, one of our standards is Irish Coffee.

One coffee, DONE!

How's that seement mixer doing?

BTW, please send PT prayers for LOH....nothing major, but she has a job interview in the morning, and we both REALLY want her to get this job.

[Karen]

Prayers on the way!

Folks might not know that, as children of a Swede for a Dad, coffee was very important. Even though I don't drink the stuff, I knew how to work the coffee maker at an early age ... and so did all of my siblings. Coffee + Swede = happy! There's ALWAYS coffee on hand at Thursdays, folks!

[gini]

Ohh, Happy Birthday indeed!

Have you ever tried to explain Pet Talk to a friend - non pet owner?
HA! Now try to explain Thursdays!

Even at my BBQ the firemen asked "what is Thursdays?" Let me tell you it took some doing with a straight face to try to explain.

A source of true joy - that's Pet Talk and Thursdays.

And let's hear it for our reliable (cough cough) bartender, Richard!

It's been a rough day - so I will opt for some of that strong Swedish coffee and some blueberry coffee cake.

And I send lots of love to all of you - and I LOVED the new jokes.
