Hello kitty. A+ for you!

[tioga]

For the cat lovers:

[xsmommy]

I am not familiar with Olivia Wilde I guess she's famous, but what struck me about this piece, which admittedly I skimmed but saw no mention of a dad/husband for her brave and intrepid mom. Unless she's turkey basting I'm assuming there is a dad as well but he doesn't even merit a mention?

[tioga]

Missed you on my cat post.

[tioga]

Nope, no mention of a daddy or that she ever cooked a turkey dinner for her family. ;^)

[xsmommy]

Xshub goes off on a rant at how dads are portrayed as imbeciles on commercials/tv shows. It’s pretty pervasive how men have been devalued. I don’t see writing a novel as some high risk endeavor, personally.

[xsmommy]

I pray for your sanity bc honestly I don’t know how you haven’t killed him with your bare hands by now. I’m serious.

[Texan5]

Sounds like that is what is going on-I always choose female dogs for pets, and I always have them spayed-never had one show any ill effects...

[xsmommy]

turn the damn lights off, do I work for west penn pahr? my brother has said that last line to his three kids many times.

[xsmommy]

Yikes, imagine standing behind this guy during this! Good lord.

[Texan5]

Well, the radical feminists of my youth wanted more sensitive, caring men-what they got was a bunch of ineffective wusses as useless as tits on a boar hog-more concerned about their looks than women. I’m in the process of putting thoughts and notes together to write my novel, as soon as I’m settled snug, happy and warm for at least through winter and next spring, but I don’t see it as risky-more like a deep sigh, sitting in the winter sun smelling winter hay, livestock and land.

That stuff used to drive MrT5 into a full-bore rant-he said he’d been a single father with custody of his two daughters from their pre-teens and he’d managed to be a parent who saw to their successful upbringing and education while still being a real man-which is true, and one of the things I loved most about him.

I haven’t met what I consider a real man in so long, I’ve given up on ever having a romantic relationship again-I’ve got bigger balls than any of them, and that’s my rant...

[Texan5]

Oh, my GOD! I would have strangled his fat ass with my bare hands, no hesitation at all! His wife looks as if she is trying to hide a fantasy of doing just that, with that sideways, veiled glance...

[SoothingDave]

How about “close the door, I ain’t heating the whole outside!”

[secret garden]

We’d hear “Shut the door! Do we live in a barn?” followed by “Quit slamming the door!”

[SoothingDave]

“Were you born in a barn?” Is how we put it.

[hobbes1]

I only dream in infrared..

[hobbes1]

Make a Pass.;-)

[hobbes1]

Every Girl is 2 Drinks away from a girl on girl encounter. ....Spade.

[hobbes1]

STAY OFF MY FACEBOOK PAGE! ;-)

[hobbes1]

Please. Here’s one for you.

Next time he gets on that rant, ask why they ALWAYS kill the Mother off in kids movies,

Finding Nemo, Brother Bear et al.
