Chris, they are married to each other, they just choose to live at different addresses.

But that doesn't go for #14 & #21b

*gets cup of water from the water cooler* So what've I missed then?

The ditzy lady from down the road has returned.

I don't remember what the number is of my favorite meal (the pancakes), but I'd like one for dinner tonight, in about three hours. With extra extra bacon.

[edit]
Oops, put that last paragraph in the wrong thread. I'll just copy it and paste it in Rocky's...

But it is rumoured that Albert does have certain problems.


I wonder is he still a lumberjack and still OK?

14th inst


My Dear Colleagues,

The Hall porter passed me a discreet note in the reading room earlier that purported to suggest that certain of my old acquaintances were enquiring after my health and whereabouts. After reparing to the Lounge and acquiring a large pink gin from the waiter, I am in a position to put fountain pen to paper.

Since we last communicated in March, life has, shall we say, been fairly quiet. I was expecting a visit from from my Great Nephew Willie B. Noughty, but alas I fear to say that has of yet not happened. Which is a great shame because Muriel used to quite enjoy playing with my Willie in the summer sun.

Speaking of the said Lady though, I can confirm that we did not in fact run off to Argentina as rumoured. At the time I did suggest a brief holiday in Dorset, on the South Coast of England, but she declined saying that in her view it was Dover for the continent, and Bournemouth for the incontinent.

As to the whereabouts of the said lady I have to confess that I am somewhat bereft of information at this present time. Possibly Italy and the Neapolitan nuts has beckoned again, one can never be quite sure.

In the meantime, I send you all my best regards and felicitations,

Sidney J. Snodgrass (Retd)

Raccoon rescue with special guest :)

Actually, that raccoon is a blond raccoon, like our Snowball is. Albino raccoons are completely different from blond or cinnamon raccoons. Albino raccoons are white with pink eyes and no color variations in their coats, unlike that raccoon kit in the link. That darling little blond baby has all the normal raccoon markings, just in a lighter shade than his/her siblings.


Snowball Korpela


Those raccoons may well have been rescued by that poster, but raccoons are phenomenal climbers. They may not have needed rescuing at all. Generally if they can get into a garbage bin, they can get out. But since raccoons are all about the path of least resistance, they will always take an easy way into or out of something if an easy way is provided. Why expend calories unnecessarily??? Climbing out of the bin on the raccoon ladder provided by their little human friend probably made the human's day! I'll bet he fed them his lunch that day!!!

Note to self - teach Buddy to jump through a ring of fire.



And Mister Snodgrass, welcome home!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
