We’ve had a good number of cats in the past and never did one of them have a fascination with TP! They must not have realized what a great time they could have had while we were at work! THANK GOODNESS! lol

That is so true!

Thankfully though, those for whom the parents shell out the big bucks for advanced vocal training are usually a “cut above”!

I had a Samoyed doggie who had a love for TP.

When it thundered, he would run into the bathroom, close the door with his nose, knock all the shampoo bottles into the bathtub, unroll the TP and flush the toilet with his snout.

For some reason this bizarre behavior soothed his fears of the thunder.

This was back in the 1980’s when we had a real President.

Happy Caturday!






Well, since you are very "mature", and I have NEVER grown up, It sort of cancels out the 36 year difference! LOL

Golf Groaner

Two Mexican detectives were investigating the murder of Juan Gonzalez.

“How was he killed?” asked one detective.

“With a golf gun,” the other detective replied.

“A golf gun?! What the heck is a golf gun?”

“I’m not for certain, but it sure made a hole in Juan!”

Praying for a speedy and pain-free recovery, Dubya. Did you have a dizzy spell or trip on something? I worry about tripping over the cat when he is inside.

Keep us updated as to how your are doing.

“Before and After Thankfulness”

When I was younger, I remember receiving the inevitable homework assignment to write an essay on “something I am thankful for.” Then I’d spend a lot of time sitting in my room trying to figure out just what in the world that could possibly be; and I’d end up writing down everything I could think of from God to environmental consciousness. But after having children, my priorities have clearly changed:

BEFORE CHILDREN: I was thankful to have been born the USA, the most powerful free democracy in the world.
AFTER CHILDREN: I am thankful for Velcro tennis shoes. As well as saving valuable time, now I can hear the sound of my son taking off his shoes — which gives me three extra seconds to activate the safety locks on the back seat windows right before he hurls them out of the car and onto the freeway.

BEFORE CHILDREN: I was thankful for the recycling program which will preserve our natural resources and prevent the overloading of landfills.
AFTER CHILDREN: I am thankful for swim diapers because every time my son wanders into water in plain disposables, he ends up wearing a blimp the size of, say, New Jersey, on his bottom.

BEFORE CHILDREN: I was thankful for fresh, organic vegetables.
AFTER CHILDREN: I am thankful for microwaveable macaroni and cheese — without which my children would be surviving on about three bites of cereal and their own spit.

BEFORE CHILDREN: I was thankful for the opportunity to obtain a college education and have a higher quality of life than my ancestors.
AFTER CHILDREN: I am thankful to finish a complete thought without being interrupted.

BEFORE CHILDREN: I was thankful for holistic medicine and natural herbs.
AFTER CHILDREN: I am thankful for pediatric cough syrup guaranteed to “cause drowsiness” in young children.

BEFORE CHILDREN: I was thankful for all of the teachers who had taught, encouraged and nurtured me throughout my formative years.
AFTER CHILDREN: I am thankful for all of the people at Weight Watcher who let me strip down to panty-hose and a strategically placed scarf before getting on the scale each week.

BEFORE CHILDREN: I was thankful for the opportunity to vacation in exotic foreign countries so I could experience a different way of life in a new culture.
AFTER CHILDREN: I am thankful to have time to make it all the way down the driveway to get the mail.

BEFORE CHILDREN: I was thankful for the Moosewood Vegetarian cookbook.
AFTER CHILDREN: I am thankful for the Butterball turkey hot line.

BEFORE CHILDREN: I was thankful for a warm, cozy home to share with my loved ones.
AFTER CHILDREN: I am thankful for the lock on the bathroom door.

BEFORE CHILDREN: I was thankful for material objects like custom furniture, a nice car and trendy clothes.
AFTER CHILDREN: I am thankful when the baby spits up and misses my good shoes.
