I don't know if anyone other than Jane noticed that I was trying on my scuba gear for one of the TC meetings all afternoon! It started rubbing in all the wrong places so I had to take it off!
Just kidding.... I was trying to help Jane learn how to do that avatar thing and accidently set scuba Jane as my avatar! OOPS!
Will search for another one later.... I am thinking about going animated.....

Pappy was out surveyin' his domain when he saw one o' the Talkin' Deer clan. Pappy went over to palaver.
I nodded in the traditional greetin', "Where's the fire, Chief?"
He shook his head slowly and spoke my Indian name through gritted teeth, "Moo-vyoo-fool."
I recognized him as Chief Subaru, named for the imprint on his rump that spelled out "Subaru" backwards. "Huntin' season. Firesticks go boom," I said.
"Yes," he said, eyeing me with something closely akin to disdain, "Interesting article in the Northwest Observer about that. I'll read it to you sometime when you're sober."
He paused and lit a cigarette. "What's with the glasses on the chicken?"
"Well, there's this talkin' chicken runnin' amok in town..." I said, not knowing quite how to explain such madness.
He nodded knowingly, took a long thoughtful drag on his cigarette and exhaled a cloud of smoke shaped in a remarkably accurate profile of Robert Redford.
"What you need is a chicken whisperer," he said. My confused look prompted him to elaborate. "Chicken whispering is an ancient art still practiced by a few of your kind today. The premise is simple: Most of the problems with talking chickens boils down to poor communication. Now what a chicken whisperer does is find a way to break through and communicate with the chicken. For example, in this case, a chicken whisperer might take the subject's scrawny chicken neck firmly in hand, pull her head close to his lips and whisper, 'We're not gonna take it.' Sometimes that's all it takes to get results."
"Hmm," I said, as understanding creeped into my skull like a stray dog. "Yes...we don't need to take it..."
The Chief stubbed out his cigarette.
"Them things'll kill ya," I said, pointing at the cigarette butt.
"I should live so long," he said, and in a graceful bound he was gone.Last edited on Jan 8th, 2006 01:48 am by FatPappy

Macca,
Thank you so much! I hunted through the Summerfield town site and didn't find the Founder's Day date somehow  so I appreciate the help.
I'm right there with you on pins and needles over the Panthers game tomorrow. Hoping Jake will rip his pants again early on for good luck
