Good Morning all you Late Birds

Sandy knows his old friend is in trouble.

Good morning all!

Good morning, Gumby and Walter!!

So glad to see you Bill.

I was just thinking you may want to go on part time status.

But you showed up. ;-))

We need you full time.

Go get Daddy, boy, and take him to that cottage. Then watch things start to happen.

Morning, LS,

Poor Sandy.

GM, LS, Marg, MLady, VBill, LordD, WW, S Slim and everyone.

I second what Leaky said, VB.

Sandy to the rescue! We hope…..

Morning Shirttal Slim, Lonewolf :-)

Good morning, Shirttail Slim, reading your comments yesterday, I can see that you’ve lead a very interesting life!

That thought did cross my mind, leaky.

“We need you full time.”

Gee, it’s been a long time since anyone said that to me!

I second that, Bill!

You guys sure know how to make an old man feel good!

GM, Marge, Shirttail Slim, Leaky, Vista Bill, and Lonewolf…..

Good morning, Terry!

Margueritem and VistaBill, good mornings hard to keep up with the rest of you!

Sut I try, but I make lots of typos.

GM MontanaLady……..glad your here also. :-))

margueritem said, “Good morning, Gumby and Walter!!”

Good morning to you, margueritem. It’s good to be back.

Thanks everyone for the nice comments yesterday regarding my nuclear thallium test results. I can really glow (in the dark) now!

No night light for you, Bill!

GM ML!!

Bill, My brain is taking me to a place I don’t wanna go.

Glowing in the dark, huh?

Morning/Evening to one and all. Sorry haven’t posted lately but once again reality keeps interfering with the comics.

Good to see you LordDogmore. ;-))

Pleased to see that you have joined the other sock puppets, Shirtail Slim. You’ve had quite a lifetime filled with adventure!

BTW all… I get extra postings tonight since I missed the show last night!

I’ll also say goodnight to all.

Later guys & gals.

margueritem said, “No night light for you, Bill!”

Our electric bill will surely go down, margueritem!

When y’all move on, please don’t leave me behind on an empty site. Sock puppets are lonely with out matching pairs, y’know.

good morning Shirttail Slim. I can see from reading your comments yesterday, you’ve lead a very interesting life.

Educational, too. I’ve worn a lot of hats over the years. I’d work at all kinds of jobs just to see if I could do them. Usually, I could. Been everything from a Librarian to a lunberjack,

My mom was born in or near Billings in 1912. Maiden name was James. Told me I was rekated to the James clan in Missouri (?).

Shirttail Slim, so you were from the honest branch of the family! ;-)

Uh, hmm……. I won’t comment on that right now, ma’am.

Morning, afternoon or evening to you (check your local listings)

Slowly he paces across the floor Whimpers softly then scratches at the door His mistress is not there for him He doesn’t know where she’s been As the minutes go it causes more distress He afraid she may be in a mess And the maid may be in for a shock If someone doesn’t take him for a walk But Annie is nowhere to be found It’s as if she disappeared into the ground Clues there have been left behind That if only they can find in time May save her from a horrendous fate That puts her in a nervous state As she wonders what will it be The devil or the deep blue sea. Thank you LS, Davidf42 and Sydney.

WW, how do you put these together in so little time? And I like that your poems rhyme. That is my idea of real poetry. Very nice.

Fantastic once again, WW.

Well, things seem to have slowed way down. Guess I’ll drink my chanomile tea and and toddle off to bed. I do try to act like a sensible senior citizen on occasion…… Not too oftrn though, it might become habit forming.

G’night all and, LOL:-)

Arf! Timmy’s down the well! Oops! Wrong strip.

Ah WW, our poet supreme.

Jim SANDY in a submarine … Got a ‘tele’ message from a drowning Queen No need for Punjab, Warbucks or the Asp Sandy’s taking care of this simple task ! Arf !

Thank you Shirttail Slim, Lonewolf and Margueritem.

Good morning fellow commentators (east of the Mississippi anyway).

I’ll ask this question again whem the page turns: I would like to give the lyrics to another of my songs. It was originally called “The Hummingbird Song> or “The Environmental Blues”. Wrote it back in ‘76. Has a little story about how it came to happen.

Hope you all won’t mind. Let me know???

Shirttail Slim said, “Hope you all won’t mind. Let me know???”

I don’t mind. I look forward to it.

VistaBill said::

“I don’t mind. I look forward to it.”

Well, now, that’s all the encouragement I need. Tomorrow will start with how, or why, it came into being. It’s a stony story.

Morning, Anniephans!
