    Lotsa fun, turning the hose on a cat.(Fun for the human, not fun for the cat.)

    Ted is obviously an amateur at this project. You have to have the water turned on, the hose primed full already and control it with the nozzle. If you turn it on at the valve with the cat in hearing distance all the air pockets will let it know what is coming and he/she will be three blocks down the road before the water comes out.

    He he he. I sometimes have to deter neighbours’ cats from sitting under our bird table – make like Rambo with a supersoaker and they don’t come back for a long time. It hurts only their most sensitive part – their dignity.

    With that grinder, you can actually say “Care to join me in a daiquiri?” (or a margarita) and mean it.

    Oh…. and Bev — I can’t see any sign of a picture in the post about Fifi, whether I go back to the 10th or read your re-posting of it here.

    Hard to say what’s going wrong… but it just doesn’t want to be posted.

    Some sites do restrict traffic to their images.

    Don’t panic, people. The ole Captain, here, has everything under control. I know Machine Gun Kitty Kelly very well and know exactly how to calm her downShe has a sweet tooth ! She loves Mudslides and Brandy Alexanders. I have strategically placed bowls of these concoctions leading out of town and down to Ballard Cove where her cousin El Gato, my watch cat, will lure her onto my galleon and into the Brig, where Kitty can sleep off the effects of those creamy libations.I will then have her returned to her native Chicago, where she works as a literary critic and hit cat.

    sumore “GUD” kat humer…-——————-

    One Sunday, in counting the money in the weekly offering,the pastor of a small church found a pink envelope containing $1,000. It happened again the next week!

    The following Sunday, he watched as the offering was collected and saw an elderly woman put the distinctive pink envelope on the plate. This went on for weeks until the pastor, overcome by curiosity, approached her.

    “Ma’am, I couldn’t help but notice that you put $1,000 a week in the collection plate,” he stated.

    “Why, yes,” she replied, “every week my son sends me money, and I give some of it to the church.”

    The pastor replied, “That’s wonderful. But $1,000 is a lot; are you sure you can afford this? How much does he send you?”

    The elderly woman answered, “$10,000 a week.” The pastor was amazed. “Your son is very successful; what does he do for a living?”

    “He is a veterinarian,” she answered.

    “That’s an honourable profession, but I had no idea they made that much money,” the pastor said.. “Where does he practice?”

    The woman answered proudly, "In Nevada …

    He has two cat houses, one in Las Vegas and one in Reno "

    Yay! Bloody Mary time!Thanks Stormy….Here I come!

    Bev …. No, I never saw the picture of Fifi…

    It’s OK…. you’ve posted so many others…. but if you’re still really wanting to find it….

    Do you happen to know the name of the image file?If not, you can find it by right-clicking the image YOU see and clicking “save image as”.

    You don’t have to actually save it (though if you do, I can tell you a different way to post it once it’s on your computer.)

    But at least you’ll see the name of it in that box….it might make sense or it might be all random numbers and letters.

    Click Control C and you can copy and paste it into Google…. there’s a possibility that a search by name would turn it up elsewhere.

    In Firefox you can also drag images into image search but I dunno about Chrome.

    Meanwhile…. you’re doing great!We knew you could!

    Monkey!You’re sure on top of your game today.

    I read the comments much earlier, but couldn’t post cos I was on the phone with someone who wanted a fairly serious conversation(it’s been that kind of day…. sigh…)

    When you said “got eny pikshurs…???” I absolutely LOST it.I laughed out loud…. almost shrieked, actually…. and had to apologise…. profusely…. LOL….She wasn’t thrilled that I’d been reading a comics forum while listening to her tale of woe… oops….

    She’s not shaved, though you may have been joking.….She’s a Chinese Crested Dog….They’re mostly hairless except for their heads and legs…In fact, to me, sometimes they look a little like a cross between a chihuahua and a Shetland pony.
