Hi Jinxy.

[B4Ranch]

Pass this around to folks who appreciate these things, okay?


Subject: Pet Owners

You may have seen this before, but it's a good one!


Letter to My Pets:

When I say to move, it means to go someplace else, not to switch positions with each other so there are still two of you in my way.

The dishes with the paw print are yours and contain your food. All other dishes are mine and contain my food. Please note that placing your paw print in the middle of MY plate and food does not stake a claim making it YOUR plate and food.

The stairway was not designed by NASCAR and is not a racetrack. Beating me to the bottom is not the object.

Tripping me doesn't help in your quest to reach the bottom first, because I fall faster than you can run.

I cannot buy anything bigger than a king sized bed. I am very sorry about this. Do not think that I will continue sleeping on the couch to ensure your comfort.

Dogs and cats actually curl up in a ball when they sleep. It is not necessary to sleep perpendicular to one another, stretched out to the fullest extent possible. I also know that sticking tails straight out and having tongues hanging out the other end to maximize space is nothing but sarcasm.

For the last time, there is not a secret exit from the bathroom. If by some miracle I beat you there and manage to get the door shut, it is not necessary to claw, whine, meow, try to turn the knob, or get your paw under the edge of the door and try to pull it open. I must exit through the same door I entered. Honest.

Also, I have been using the bathroom by myself for quite some time -- canine or feline attendance is not mandatory.

I can't stress this one enough -- kiss me, THEN go smell the other dog's/cat's behind.


To pacify you, my dear companions, I have posted the following notice on our front door:

Rules for Non-Pet Owners Who Visit and then Complain About Our Pets

1. The pets live here. You don't.

2. If you don't want their hair on your clothes, stay off the furniture. (That's why it's called"fur"niture.)

3. To you, our pets are just animals. To us, they are an adopted son/daughter who happens to be hairy, walks on all fours and doesn't speak clearly.

4. Dogs and cats are better than kids because:

- they don't ask for money all the time
- they are easier to train
- they usually come when called
- they don't hang out with drug-using friends
- they don't need a gazillion dollars for a college education, and
- if they get pregnant, you can sell the children. :)

[luvie]

Thank you for those words of encouragement, Twin! I love the troops and hope they enjoy the few tunes that I was given the privilege of presenting to them. I am glad to be part of this great team!

[luvie]

I wish I had access to some more of his tunes tonight. They are GREAT dance songs...those red shoes would be perfect!

[MoJo2001]

Wherever our Troops are, that's the only place to be.

Patriotic Music

Enjoy!

Over There - Mormon Tabernacle Choir

Sidenote: MoJo's Goal--> To ensure that everyone that sees these threads will know
how to sing all of America's popular Patriotic songs without having to look at the words.
If you think this is something anal retentive, you have no idea how ballistic MoJo gets
when she has to watch Americans on TV that don't know how to sing our national anthem.
By Memorial Day, most everyone will know how to sing all of these songs! (If you want to).

Verse:
Johnnie get your gun, get your gun, get your gun,
Take it on the run, on the run, on the run;
Hear them alling you and me;
Ev-'ry    son       of        Lib  - er  -   ty.

Hurry right away, no delay, go today,
Make your daddy glad, to have had such a lad,
Tell your sweetheart not to pine,
To be proud her boy's in line.___

CHORUS:
Over there,__   Over  there,____Send the word, send the word  o-ver there,___
That the  Yanks/boys are coming, the  Yanks/boys are coming,
The drums rum - tum - ming ev - 'ry   where._____

So  pre - pare,______    say a  pray'r,_______
Send the word, send the word  to  be  - ware.___
We'll    be   o    -     ver, we're  com-ing   o   -  ver,
And  we  won't come back till it's  o-ver   o-ver  there.

Verse:
Johnnie get your gun, get your gun, get your gun,
John-nie show the Hun, you're a   son-of-a-gun,
Hoist  the   flag   and   let   her   fly,
Like   true    he-roes    do     or     die.
Pack your lit - tle  kit,  show yourgrit,  do your bit,
Sol-diers  to  the ranks  from the towns and the tanks,
Make your  moth-er  proud  of   you,
And to   lib - er - ty   be      true._____

REPEAT THE CHORUS

Yankee Doodle Dandy

Sidenote: Love this song!

Verse:
by George M. Cohan

I'm a Yankee Doodle Dandy
A Yankee Doodle, do or die
A real live nephew of my Uncle Sam
Born on the Fourth of July

I've got a Yankee Doodle sweetheart
She's my Yankee Doodle joy
Yankee Doodle came to London
Just to ride the ponies
I am the Yankee Doodle Boy

****wolf whistle****...wow! Sissy, you get the shoes..they definitely go with that outfit!

[TASMANIANRED]

No truer words were ever written than the ones about Nascar on the stairs.

[HiJinx]

Evenin', Tas.

Kisses in the bathtub, eh? Silly girls....

[TASMANIANRED]

You are doing quite well.

Proud of you , Sis.

[luvie]

I'd feel kinda silly thanking myself! LOL! I really do appreciate all of you guys though.

[TASMANIANRED]

Do you slow dance?

[Kathy in Alaska]

Good evening, B4....I love it!

For the last time, there is not a secret exit from the bathroom. If by some miracle I beat you there and manage to get the door shut, it is not necessary to claw, whine, meow, try to turn the knob, or get your paw under the edge of the door and try to pull it open. I must exit through the same door I entered. Honest.

ROTFLMBO!! Why is a closed door such an affront?

And thank you for your service to our country.
