There once was a dog from Nantucket......................
Looks like you get wrapped up in your haves, could you explain the double have?
My first thought also.
Anybody see Teddy?
Not really, except to try and make clear one more time what it is I meant to write.........
You still have many lessons to learn, grasshopper.
Now, if you're still confused about what I meant, then I suspect that confusion is simply a way of life for you.
I probably shouldn’t ask, but why a grasshopper??
You dry clean ’em. Too easy to snarl the coat otherwise.
The frequent use of flashbacks is used to recall specific lessons during Caine's training in the monastery while a child (Rad Pera) by his teachers, the blind Master Po (Keye Luke) and Master Kan (Philip Ahn). Part of the appeal of the series was undoubtedly the emphasis laid, via the flashbacks, on the mental and spiritual power that Caine had gained from his rigorous training. In these flashbacks, Master Po calls his young student "Grasshopper" in reference to their first meeting in which young Caine said that to be blind must be the worst affliction. Master Po drew attention to a grasshopper at his feet which the blind master could hear but to which Caine had been oblivious, showing the pupil how much he still had to learn.
No, seriously, there are some people out there who are too stupid to be allowed to drink.
Thank you dearly, I am honored to be called The Grasshopper by You after so Wonderful a story.. Thank you:-)
A pic of Howard Dean taken today. (check out the sign)
Anyone who has loved and been loved by these wonderful creatures the Lord has created and given us the knowledge to domesticate should be outraged by this story.
This is not funny, even in a slapstick way.
People who treat animals this way, even when drunk, should not be allowed to lead or employ human beings in any way, public or private. They would treat humans the same way one way or another.
Only a demented person would think such a thing is funny. They’d be the type who would laugh seeing an elderly person slip and fall on an icy sidewalk.
Agreed. Agreed. Agreed.
Shame on the ones who did this, and nothing funny about it at all. They should be punished severely for such a sick act against a helpless creature.
Best Regards,

“No, seriously, there are some people out there who are too stupid to be allowed to drink.”
Ah. Where to begin?
Too Stupid To Be Allowed To:
Drink (as you said),
Drive,
Have children, (please, God forbid)
Have pets (again, please, God forbid)...
VOTE (OH, PLEASE, GOD FORBID!)
Own an oven,
Own a microwave oven,
Own a ‘fridge,
Own a cucumber to go in it,
Own a washing machine,
Own air,
Own a clothes dryer...
Never mind. The list could go on forever.
Just too stupid to “be” in my opinion. Or, rather, too cruel to be left hanging around to the harm of others.
Best Regards,
BR
Have done that sorta.... My Dad once got so frustated with the “Women who are constantly late” syndrome that he paced himself up and down and marched himself right into a sliding glass door.. Came up wth his nose in a grip dripping blood, my Mother wet her ladylike pants and my sis and I were not far behnd!
You had to be there.
Life is funny and if you cannot see the humor from the fog
You have my condolences.
Read the article, it’s like MAD magazine!
Maybe you're right. Next time I come across a car wreck or a house fire, I'll try to find something funny about it.
