Thanks, mai mai dear. I've only cried twice in the past 7 years, and both times it's been because of an animal...I loves them.

Ooh. Blast from the past that was. Remember brunch on the twelfth floor? that's where I showed up. I was all the newbie and everything and look at me now. Starting threads and everything.

Oooh, we should do brunch again.

Well there's this big box of Peace On Earth as well as a jar of Goodwill Toward Men. You might not want to open them until there is a change in leadership for a number of political entities. Don't want them going to waste dontchaknow. Plus a clever little electronic ferrostatic atmospheric mixomatic machine that flawlessly mixes and serves all of the more common (and a few of the more obscure) umbrella drinks. Also this Thingamabob. It's kinda like a doohikey only it works more like a whatchamacallit. It does something but from reading the manual it's hard to tell what.

I'm sure the frog is very pleased.
What is it with phrases that involve animals and the
human head?
Pig-headed, Frog in my throat, cat got your tongue.
then there's charlie horse. We need more animal/body part phrases. "I was very zebra elbow this morning." "What's wrong? Iguana navel?"

As for the frog.. hey it's likely happier in your throat than under my sister's mentally retarded cat... cat had brain damage and believed my sister's frogs were chilled kittens so it would take them and tuck them under it's belly to warm them up... you'd shoo her off and there would be poor Booper or Othie covered in hair and looking very traumatized...

Isn't a cow-lick just a block of salt?

A cow-lick is also a hair-style(or anti-style if you prefer) where the hair looks like a cow licked it(Pretty self descriptive I know) in an odd direction. As for the sig, how are you doing it? Flash, linking to PB?
EDIT: It worked for a sec when I posted, then stopped. The chair goes by once, and the smiley I let you have

bows a couple of times, then stops. Somtheing about the images is my guess. Are they gifs, or jpegs?

The sig doesn't appear to be an animation. When I pull it up separately. When you log on to your photobucket account and look at it, is it animated?

It stops after the first iteration, did you set it up to looped animation when you saved the gif file?
