[> [> [> [> Why Did the Chicken Cross the Road?
The Star Trek Version
Kirk: To boldly go where no chicken had gone before.
Scotty: Because she couldna take much morrrrrre.
Bones: I'm a doctor, not an ornithologist!
Uhura: Shall I open hailing frequencies so you can ask it, sir?
Chekov: It must have been on its way to assist in saving my life for the billionth time... did I scream again?
Khan: With my last breath I spit at the chicken...
Spock: Fascinating, Captain.
Nurse Chapel: Oh, Spock! -- Luoodles hoping this works!, 19:34:45 03/16/07 Fri [1]

She adopted a Siamese cat after they did surgery on him for a urinary blockage. She still has her emotionally needy cat.

She's fostering an Italian Greyhound. She has an American Boxer (like Chase/Micheal J Fox on Disney's Homeward Bound movie) whom she would like to give away. Do you need another big dog? Please please
She has rabbits and a lizard. All these are rescues of some sort. She gave away her birds. Too many animals. Luckily, she is not living in our house.
We, on the other hand are more reasonable in our pet acquisitions, and have a Sheltie and 3 cats.

[> [> [> [> [> [> [> [> [> No no no no no n o no more dogs! No no no no no! LOL! I'm trying to find homes for TWO now. Not mine, I'm just the go between. I have an English Cocker and a St. Bernard mix w/ emotional issues. LOL! Both need to go to single doggie homes where they can get lots of one on one. I've baby sat these dogs often and they really are wonderful. Just.. not quite.. ummm.... there. LOL! The cocker doesn't like children, the St. Bernard HAS SHORT TERM MEMORY LOSS. I'm not kidding. Really. I could right a book on this dog alone. I will be baby sitting him.. and folks will come by..and he'll bark at them and really try to get my attention. INTRUDERS!! Intruders! Look There HERE! In the HOUSE! Bark bark bark bark bark. Then he decides they're just more people and lays down and takes a nap. 5 minutes later, he wakes up. Looks at the SAME people.. and goes bonkers! There's PEOPEL! In the HOUSE! Alarm! Alarm! and then he sleeps some more.. and repeats about 40 times. -- Luoodles, 21:04:43 03/28/07 Wed [1]

[> [> [> Hi C! (Got Juice?) Just had to say that for old times sake! LOL! Hey.. do they even SELL Hi-C anymore? ANYWAY.. If it makes you feel any better, that picture was from LAST spring. We currently have an inch of snow outside with more coming.. Just in time for tomorrow! I'm having a combined birthday celebration for Child O' Mine (Sweet 16.. can you believe it??!!!) and my Mom. I've got a ton of folks coming, a ton of food cooked, a cake that's practically the SIZE of Child O' Mine and..... there is snow, sleet, and freezing rain with more on the way. Oh wonderful. Sigh. I've a feeling we will be eating this cake for a loooooong time. Not to mention all this other stuff I've got cooked for a veritable army (farmers). -- Luoodles WHY IS IT SNOWING THIS LATE IN MARCH???? And yes, I know.. it snows in March.. but.. NOT USUALLY.. and WHY THIS YEAR!!! ARRRRRGGGHHHHHHHH!!!!!!!!!!!!, 19:29:45 03/16/07 Fri [1]

[> [> [> [> Snow in March is not as bad as Snow in April. I have a photo in one of the family albums labled April 6, 1982 and it is of the top of my car with 18 inches of snow on it........The chicken went throught the Stargate to get away from the snow -- Lady C, 19:58:52 03/17/07 Sat [1]

[> [> [> [> [> It is going to be 70 degrees here today. Daffodils are a-bloom, trees are a-budding. It is spring break and everyone with a youngster is off on vacation this week. I have no youngster at home. I must work. I wish it were snowing. -- grumpyCarrotts, 07:18:21 03/19/07 Mon [1]

[> [> [> [> [> [> It was 48 here today and it felt like TEN. The wind was practically blowing the roof off my house, and my baby chicks were blowing around the yard like LEAVES. I had to gather them all up with thier EXTREMELY irrate and all but hysterical mama hen, stick them in the cat carrier, and put them in my basement. The hen started clucking tonight during "Dancing With the Stars," and I'm turning up the t.v. in hopes Hubby doesn't hear them and discover I have now put CHICKENS in our house. Sigh. -- Luoodles, 20:11:12 03/19/07 Mon [1]

[> [> [> [> [> When I lived up in the middle of Colorado, I remember getting fresh snow in MAY!! How insane is that? LOL Lu - sounds like you had a busy weekend. How'd it go? How much cake is still sitting around for you to feed to the menagarie you call your home. ;-) -- katrose, 09:38:05 03/19/07 Mon [1]

[> [> [> [> [> [> Oh golly, Kat. I bought too much CAKE. Sigh. I don't know. I seem to never judge this correctly. I either get too little, or too much. This time.. oh my. I have half of this big cake left that was practically the size of Child o Mine. I think what happened is I had all this ice cream w/ all these toppings.. and most folks ate THAT and just had a little piece of cake. We will be eating cake until the end of TIME. Plus, my son's beagle decided she had WINGS and decided to leap from the back of the couch to the TABLE where the cake was. I don't know WHAT possessed her ... there was just no way she could have possible made it. Before we could stop her she was airbourne. She made it about half way and then SPLAT! Spread eagle on the hardwood floor. I thought she had KILLED herself. She seems fine though. CRAZY DOG. All my animals are insane. Gosh. Maybe it's from living with me! LOL! -- Luoodles, 20:20:19 03/19/07 Mon [1]

[> [> [> [> [> [> [> Lu, I'm glad the Beagle seems fine because the visual you conjured of that dog leaping off the couch for a bite of cake had me ROTFLOL!!! -- Carrotts, 06:54:50 03/20/07 Tue [1]

[> [> [> [> [> [> [> [> Yes.. and if you could see how FAT this dog is... a sausage with legs.. you would REALLY understand what an impossible leap she was making. Poor baby. My son keeps saying she's lost weight. Yes. He tells me he thinks "I" have lost weight too... ~cough~ I JUST LOVE THAT BOY!!!! LOL! -- Luoodles who turned sideways just yesterday and all but disappeared! What?!, 19:34:44 03/20/07 Tue [1]

[> [> [> [> [> [> [> [> I'm with Carrotts on the gigglefest. I'm still of the mind that you need to just write your adventures (all of them) down and send them to a publisher. If nothing else, you'll have the poor person that opens the package on the floor laughing and bringing a smile to *their* faces. LOL -- KatRose, 14:28:37 03/21/07 Wed [1]

[> [> [> [> [> [> [> [> [> Well... I'd love to. But.. WHAT publisher? Who? Where? and HOW? It SOUNDS easier then it is. I can't figure out how to do it without 1) paying someone big bucks, or 2) "selling" my stories for a pitance and them owning the "rights" to them. Good golly, for $50 I'll just keep them for my children. They can use them against me when they want to lock me up in the old folks home! LOL! -- Luoodles waving to near lift off to the Ducky Denizens. My goodness.. We MUST be getting close to new episodes SOON, right?, 20:14:49 03/21/07 Wed [1]

[> [> [> [> [> [> [> [> [> [> There are lots of ways to get your stories published. Some are like submissions to Reader's Digest for their short stories/funny lives sections. They pay for the rights to publish, but you retain all copyrights thereafter. You can also put together a collection of your stories and submit them to publishers. As for who and where, my best recommendation would be all of them. I know that sounds silly, but sometimes the only way to get anyone to take notice is to send off to everyone. You can pick up a book at the library or bookstore on how to get published and go from there. Your stories are good and should be seen outside of our little universe. :-) -- KatRose, 09:16:23 03/26/07 Mon [1]

[> [> [> [> [> [> [> [> [> [> [> [> O.k. I shall pursue! In my spare time! LOL! A friend told me I should sell my stories on line.. like a subscription. I don't know. I will have to TRY to get published one of these days. Soon. THANKS FOR ALL THE HELP AND ENCOURAGMENT! -- Luoodles, 21:08:58 03/28/07 Wed [1]

[> [> [> [> [> [> [> [> [> [> Also - there are several ways to self-publish without the outlay of costs there used to be - its still "vanity publishing" but there is more and more movement towards that kind of thing these days or so it seems... I would assume it works best for people who are "known" online - and while not everyone still hangs around places to find out too quickly, I'd reckon theres enough of us folks who would certainly buy a Luoodles book.... now we need to come up with a name for Lu's first book =) -- Aria, 18:52:33 03/26/07 Mon [1]

[> [> [> [> Yes Lu - they still sell Hi-C (and McDonalds still has Hi-C orange as one of their drinks - if they ever switch for another flavor I will be very mad - I have grown up drinking Hi-C orange from McDonalds, and at 25 I still want my Hi-C!) (oh and Hi to the real C, LOL!) -- Aria, 15:28:13 03/25/07 Sun [1]
