Evening all!
As the one who started the Chooster parade, I apologize for causing any discord among us. It was meant in fun. I simply picked up on what Panni said and (as you can imagine) all seems pretty right in
MY world right now.
I had a friend who had a stuffed frog he called “Phineis”. Not only did the frog have his own wardrobe, ranging from a Tux to Star Wars costumes, he also had his very own, real, honest to goodness credit card.
Phineis made the rounds, had his photo taken everywhere, amateur right up to a professional photo shoot. In fact, several gals and I had our pictures taken him and considered it quite an honor. I still remember the guy who took the pictures asking if this was a band or something. I hope I still have the photo someplace. As I recall he was in his “James Frog” attire and we were the “Frog Girls” instead of the “Bond Girls”.
It was a long running joke, although more than one time, Phineis was frognapped and held for ransom by those of the group who had enough of him. I think it was more of a game then anything else. The guy who owned him always got him back.
I don’t know where Phineis or his owner are today but I remember those days fondly. It was great fun for those of us who were willing to partake of it and never taken very serious. Although, I will admit, I thought the credit card was going a bit far.
I’ll just end my little tale with a request that you, DR Panni, add me to the list for future Chooster e-mail pictures.
I guess we are going to sitting next to one another at Jewish Thighs. My seat is D8. Who has D9?
As you can imagine, yesterday was quite an exciting day for me. I was driving seventy MPH on the drive home without even realizing it! I NEVER drive that fast! And it was so quiet. I had to put the window down to have some noise. I’m going to have to get used to the pedals. I had to really push the vans to make it go or stop.
Mom is thrilled. I was right that the running board and the handle would do wonders to help her get in/out. I hope she will be more comfortable and want to go out a bit more.
As for your request to “borrow” Bonnie, DR Vixmom. In a word,
NO! She’s mine all mine!
I hope you start feeling better JMK.
Nice to see you WFO. I look forward to saying hello in person!
DR Jose, I would like to hear more about what you found for the Pocket PC. You know that I have one as well. I want to get a modem for it. What did you see? What kinds of programs? And (more important) WHERE exactly did you see them?
If you buy a modem, please tell me what kind you got and how you got it to work.
BTW, I’m glad that your foot is getting better.
