Come on Kleet. Us beerdrinkers are more sofistakated and responcible than that.

[possum gurl]

No we're not, you silly schnauzer! Go dig up some bonz in your back yard or something! I have to go hang upside down in a tree now and rest up for Thurdsay's festivites.

It's the old Duffy's Tavern where pool ruled the night and the women (in the silence of the night) ruled the men with their moves?

The Dogster inVENTed drinking! He had no choice. I mean you can't just go around telling folks you were stone cold SOber when you lost your car - they'd think you're nuts or sumpthin,' and they'd sorta move away and leave you alone. .....but THEN when you add "Well, I may have had a little too much to drink," - well NOW you're tellin' a story that people want to hear! Drinking adds respectability, credibility. Status.

Quark, That is sheer poetry. BW

BW - where do you get these great pictures of bears? Do you photograph them yourself?

[Bozo]

Some folks don't need artificial stimulants to act goofy. They were born that way. Why, I'd challenge y'all to a goof fest but it would be no contest. Plus Ise could eat more ice cream than any twose of ya, with one overly large foot tied behind myse red nose. Thanks for not calling it an "ice cream" event! Progress is slow in the ice cream activist business. Why, in my day a person called an ice cream an ice cream, and everybody knew what it meant. Why... (creak, creak, rock, rock)... them's were the days... I tell ya...

I wish I could lay claim to being the photographer of my two recent Avatar bears, but I can't. I've got some great shots of bears I took. I'll have to dig them out. Missed a great shot last summer on trail to Fernow Potholes. Camera was up the trail with my partner. Just have a great respect and admiration for bears. And for those who think this post doesn't fit the thread topic. Why else would you be sitting on your butt, in the snow, smacking a tree? BW

Keeeerful sonny, there ain't much unnatural about the creation of beverages by the prowess of freemontation. As far as ice cream goes, I've only visualized it at one social. How about frozen yogurt? Tame thing? How 'bout Hoggin' Days, Buy Hers (that ain't goin' Dutch), Dairy Mold? Ice cream melts and then it's cone or sometimes it splats to the rock road. I ask a flavor that the next social be at Dairy Queen, but until that happen I 'spect there is a freeze on frozen consumptables.
