February is also
Responsible Pet Owner's Month
http://www.bikersagainstanimalcruelty.org/RPOM.html

Don't dodge your responsibilities to your pets!

It could be a catastrophe if you do!

Fishing around for more money can wait!

Quote from: Donnah on 05/02/2012 04:36:06

Myrtle, the turtle,
the one who stole the girdle
had lost her hope
until the Pope
released her from the cell.
She cried "Thank you,
I will be true,
I was in a real snare,
now I'm out by a hare
so it's time to come out of my shell.

I humbly accept! With tears in my eyes!

I prepared some off-the-cuff remarks:

"To all the Distinguished Members of the Academy....."

Ohnevermind, wrong Award Acceptance Speech....

February is
Responsible Pet Owner's Month

Your dogged attention to annual events has paid off again.

Will those pets say grace before they tuck into breakfast.......... "For what we are about to receive........" For Spanish pets, would that translate to (here it comes, a Spanish pun) "Para que tu a punto de recibir......" And don't forget to scatter some food for the wild birds too. It doesn't cost much. I bought some wild bird seed and was pleasantly surprised when the shop keeper, Mr. Pratt, said "Here's jer bill".

I took a German Shepherd to the vet a few days ago. We went on a train which called at all stations to London Bridge.

We all love TNS, it has (wait for it...........) taught us many things.


Yippee! The trusty old 'tortoise' pun makes yet another appearance. I wold hate to keep them to myself, it would seem rather shellfish**

**Note the triple barrel pun.

Timmy the tortoise
went out and bought us
a lock for door to his house
not a padlock and chain
he did explain
but a real good mortice.

Careful!

Do you know the poop on parakeets?

...the shop keeper, Mr. Pratt


Shop keeper?

Hell no!

Mr. Pratt is a well known breeder of lab science animals.

So, he is definitely part of the rat race!

This is terrific!

But your submission is a hare too late. Donnah walked off with The Turtle Poetry Award For February.

Stick your neck out earlier next time!




But as a Consolation Prize, you get to choose The Lucky Lady who is to receive a kiss from you!

And of course, you can also choose anyone author than Barbara Elsborg!


Barbara Elsborg

Cow Milked While Flying In An Airplane Day

You have an entire day to prepair for this. So, no rush.

But I'm sure your day will go fast.

Do we have to tip such a cow? A cow like this has never served me food. This one only serves milk.

Rather glad I missed out on this. It must play havoc with the rudder. I'll bet the pilot got into a bit of a flap. If the milking machine stops midflight, check the plug. At altitude, the fuse'll age very quickly.

Moo Mooo MOOOO Oi! Warm your hands before you grab my undercarriage!

Who's ever heard of cows flying anyway?

I do believe you have inadvertently used the letter “o” here, when you should have used the letter “a”.

Don, please try to be just a little more patient.

They only need some help from us. Encouragement even.

But it's worth it: this is a high steaks game!

Good idea. But first, I would get rid of the fly in the oinkment.
