POLL: the final step before ninth_wave reveals all!

Hey there 'N' ! --- a turtle eh? Now I'm pretty sure that would have to be a 'custom-made' saddle! ~ micro-saddlebags & Xtra-short stirrups too!

Came in this even'n from replanting about a gazillion tomato plants! Gaww! Gonna' make some SERIOUS batches o' picante sauce after a while. The days are gittn' noticeably longer now, and with the *unusually* mild winter we've had.. our peach trees are FULL of blossoms!! Too bad cuz there's bound to be another freeze coming. -- has happened many times before. And isn't there any body on the planet besides me who likes Okra?? Prolly not! I swear it now..Nuth'n beats hot fried Okra & a Chicken-Fried steak w/gravy!

So Taz is shacked up now with his superior officer! Hmmm.. that'll probably put a slight crimp in your night-life eligibility..yep! Yer also gonna hafta' pick up yer dirty socks & undies more often now.~ I GuarAWNTEE it ole boy! -- Yeah..I was married once upon a (very strange) time. Turns out I were a heap more married than She were too!! -- Better g'won and buckle-up yer seat belt now Tazzy-boy. Extra KP-duty and ya best mind the coy-humor gutterball-remarks... RAPIDS Ahead !! Where's that grenade I was pick'n up on? My guess is yer Filly put it away cuz she don't care for ya leaving your nick-nacks and toys out on the coffee table no more. Did you stuff yer battle-axe way back in the utility-room closet yet?? ((Yer better git yer jabs in now N..while he's still in a daze and stalled on the cattle-chute! )) I do kinda' like the turtle avi tho Taz..quite Cute I must admit! -- I'm just itch'n to see what a 'domesticated' tazzy-devil avatar looks like though!! Tickles my nickel just thinking about it!!

Politicks! arrgh!! Yer right about that N! -- They've stomped all over my favorite Andy Griffith and Leave-it-Beaver re-runs now with the dang silly duh-baits and town-stump'n turkey-dance stuff plugging up the airwaves! I believe BillHillyGirl and BamBam are even gonna' invade Austin fer another jabber-hockey spittn-contest day after tomorrow. I'll have to sit that one out though! I'm thinking of get'n outta dodge again soon and was toying with the idea of maybe heading south. Ahh..Costa Rica! Now there's a pretty place! Still a bit too chilly here to git out on the water-skis (we got a nice lake here).. but maybe in another month or so.

ChooChoo my buddy...I can see you must've certainly hit the dream-stream some time ago! Unless of course, you're really a drag-queen Vampire! If that be the case...you'd surely be out right about now stealthing around in the nearly-full moon shadows! Bit o' advice pal... leave the push bike at home tonite....them lamp posts are especially magnetic on a full moon! Forget the roller-skates too! -- I believe Missy's got a nice apple for ya' if you happen to catch a case of the midnight looney munchies! Which reminds me...It's a rare thing to catch...but can anyone guess whut the horses do out in the back pasture only on full moons??

Speak'n of Missy...Lovey~If you think yer addicted to summer now (living in Chi Town)...then you'd have a full blown double-dipped over-dose of climatic-euphoria if'n ya'll ever came round here in the late spring! I've lived all over the states from coast to coast and in some truly pretty country..but I didn't really know where my home was...till I wound up here! Take my word for it...Twas a helluva shift from the wild-jungle outskirts of Washington DC.

Well I guess I'll let ya'll have some rest now. I gotta' drag out the gittar and crank up some comfortably-numb pink-floyd tonite before have'n to shake-a-leg tomorrow morning. Gonna' pick up my momma..and take 'er down to da' bank and WallyWorld for a little 20-mile therapeutic shopping-stroll exercise; yet another all American gluttonoid pastime! I've banned her from eBay already!!

Ciao!

Wait a minute! .Hold up Hoss! I forgot something!! -- I been meaning to ask if anyone has ever found out from the wait-staff 'round here....COULD WE BE ALLOWED MAYBE... just a C_o_u_p_l_e more different smilies to work with??

EDIT: Shadeaux.. ya slipped yer post in on me while I was peck'n mine out and weren't looking! You're a Spy-slyder you are!
((awww.. go ahead an' say panties-in-a-wad... shivers me tail hairs just fine! ))

Hey everybody! (or whoever's left..not many of us around anymore) Not even me and I'm a founding member

Zebra you're SO talkative lately That's a GOOD thing! Since we've all cut back on our postings poor Choo is stuck reading the newspaper now in the mornings instead of our silliness. (We know you miss us Choo!)

Well I'm outta here for now just wanted to say HI and hope everyone has a great day

Til later~~~

EDIT - almost forgot Z...Pink Floyd fan here too, crank it!

Yes we ARE very somber aren't we?? I think everyone is bummed out about all the new ebay policy changes (geez I'm sick of it already)

So instead lets party! I'm waiting for you to come up with some 'wierd news' (wonder what that means) And in the meantime, I found a pic of Choo...he won't be reading the newspaper tomorrow morning he'll be reading this and I'll be in BIG trouble
Sorry CCG I just couldn't resist Still friends?

I kind of get what you're looking for, but this was the best I could do

I'll say you are the expression may be right but I've got a lot more hair than that

Back later, grrrrr

Choo...on a side note I wanted to ask you if you're having any luck on other selling venues?? Or is it too early to tell?

well.... I dunno 'N'. ~ No disrespect to Missy but I'd be a little careful bout what she offers ya'. Her offerings can have a little "bite" to it!

" Rare Four-eyed Turtle Hatches At The Tennessee Aquarium: Endangered Hatchling May Represent A First In North America"

ScienceDaily (Jun. 19, 2007) — A rare Beal’s four-eyed turtle recently hatched at the Tennessee Aquarium. According to aquarium herpetologist Enrico Walder this tiny turtle should be treated as big news. “According to records this species of turtle can only be seen at three North American zoos or aquariums, and is listed as an endangered species.



So you might wanna' consider the overall implications.




But then again, maybe not. Your choice I suppose!

Hey, in my own defense, you all know my bite is worse than my bark (or is that the other way around? Dunno)
But I DO like your picture Zebra...and where is Choo? I expected more retaliation from him than just "I have more hair than that"

See you all later~~

By the way Missy... (and quickly since i've gotta' take off in a minute) as long as we're on the subject of avatars...

Since you've earned the esteemed status of having become such an 'Elite' poster-girl presence...
Perhaps you'd consider a little offering from the zebra (no bite intended ~ and I'll scale it down if needs be)




Consider it a belated 'Valentine Gift'...cuz as I said before.... "I've only got Eyes for You!".

whoa!!! that is cool!!!!!!!!
the eyes I mean. The 4 eyed turtle might work, it has a double meaning perhaps......

Well funnily enough the first two items to sell were ones repeatedly listed on greedbay without any takers, so that is rather good especially as they only charge for a FVF, no basic, listing fees, store fees or subscription fees.

No point in listing as auction items on there because the number of visitors are so low, seems common with at least 5 or 6 UK sites I have examined with active listing countsof 100k or less. (Microscopic copmared with greedbay's 15m)

But seeing as these items rarely fetch more than the minimal start price of 99p no problem, put on greedbay couple of times then move to BIN type on the other site with free autorelist until they sell or rot

I virtually have my category of items to myself at the moment and meanwhile place nominal listings on greedbay


Ooh those eyes from Zebra, spooky especially as not used to them moving,

As governor Arnie would say "I'll be back !"

That's great Choo..I listed one or two things on iOffer and Bidville, so far no action Didn't really expect much tho so it doesn't bother me that much. At least you sold some stuff
uh-oh.."I'll be back" huh?? And then what? Are ya gonna hit me with your newspaper
Maybe I should go & hide now...you'll never find me (hopefully you don't have a hammer)

And Zebra - you're just a big sweetie aren't ya? Quit blushing now I LOVE the eyes, I changed my avatar I hope it will work. I've used gifs before and they never actually moved, but I'm computer challenged so I must have done something wrong...
OK gonna post this & see if my eyes blink, be back later..

BTW Choo I'm wearing my bulletproof vest and helmet, take your best shot (KIDDING! I'm actually hiding behind the couch, HA)

EDIT - Yay they blink, thanks Zeb! Doesn't take much to make me happy does it

Your eyes are great!!! That is so neat!!!

quote:

Are ya gonna hit me with your newspaper

Yep, a good whackin with a wet newspaper

Hah! Now you're talkin' Choo! Miss M needs a good whackin', wouldn't ya say? I'd've chosen a wet noodle.

Da Zeb pooh dem pataloons should contain, but this I do maintain: should they bust or break, Zeb will never feel da relief to ease his ache. In which case da spyder's brew, will only be to me from you.

Yep, th' cookies fer you they be. Wanna share a truffle, or two... or three?

Zeb, ya DO still have th' brown pants doncha? Watch out fer th' fly buds! They're comin' to getcha! Ya might hafta share them pants with N 'cause I'm aroundin' up my spyder friends.

So... I simply step out for a day (gotta' tend to a 'real' life occasionally ((like politickal debates and such)) )... and what happens behind my back??
