Speaking of monkeys, I'm going to need a full report from dong on this place. I really want to know, is it a jungle full o' monkeys?
Cause if so, I call meetup!
Posted by: salmonberry on June 8, 2004 08:59 PMregarding the second one: What the HELL is that thing??? Is it an albino piglet with buck teeth and claws??
It's like the baby from the movie "It's Alive" only, you know, a little piggier. Sorta.
Posted by: Fes on June 8, 2004 11:08 PMCrash, not only do I love those pictures, but the thread title goes straight to my heart.
*throws aside her former suitors, old what's-their-names*
Alas, Tizzie!
*sobs briefly, looks over towards Romakimmy, smiles, straightens tie, re-jauntifies*
Chi si rivéde! Perchè non ti siedi qui accanto a me, angelo Mio?
*whistles Diana Krall's "Devil May Care", sends prayer of thanks to Mercury that romakimmy speaks English*
Crash: a wombat? I thought that was, you know, a made-up animal.
Posted by: Fes on June 9, 2004 09:23 AMI happily accede to your superior wisdom, micio Mio. Care for some wine?

Posted by: Fes on June 9, 2004 10:38 AMA friend of mine was kind enough to send me a gmail invite and it turns out my browser isn't compatible! WAAAAH!
Posted by: dana on June 9, 2004 12:19 PMI have invites, too.
(Frankly,
I can't think of anything I'd really
Like to get in return.
Extravagant
Presentations of
Insanely
Luxurious gifts just
Embarrass me.)
So, does anyone want one?
Posted by: Vidiot on June 9, 2004 12:54 PMMan, invites to gmail are popping up through the woodwork. This isn't exlusive at all any more! How can I use this to artificially prop up my cred?

Posted by: salmonberry on June 9, 2004 12:59 PMHas anyone seen this guy? If you're in Greenwich Village on a Sunday, give him a hug for me will ya?
Posted by: towerbrave on June 9, 2004 03:04 PMAnd would that be so bad? Everyone needs a good ass-grabbing in the course of a day. Heck, I think I'll go out and get one right now...;)
Posted by: towerbrave on June 9, 2004 03:36 PMwell, towerbrave, I'm getting older now, and my flesh is acquiring the consistency of modeling clay, so one ass-grabbing and I'm carrying hand-shaped dents for a day or two.
Posted by: jonmc on June 9, 2004 03:47 PMWow, what a summer it'll be. First BlobFest, now Lebowski Fest.
"That's a great plan, Walter. That's fuckin' ingenious, if I understand it correctly. It's a Swiss fuckin' watch."
Posted by: Vidiot on June 9, 2004 04:23 PMI'll try one of those gmail things if there's one available.
Posted by: liam on June 9, 2004 07:24 PMWest coast summer fests:
Slugfest 2004!
"Slippery, slimy, wonderful slugs. This is your day! Fun and games for slugs and their people. Contests include beauty, heavy weight, largest and smallest. The Grande finale is the great Richmond Slug Race. All slugs must be accompanied by a human."
Yes, I have attended these, I have raced a slug. All the salt threats in the world couldn't nab me a trophy, damnit.
Posted by: salmonberry on June 10, 2004 12:42 AMThe slug festival is followed by the salmon festival. There's also a coho festival (coho is a type of salmon)......but no Lebowski fests. No BlobFests.
But the salmon festival comes with carnival rides. Does the Lebowski fest? That's right. Thought not.
Posted by: salmonberry on June 10, 2004 12:45 AMHow big do those salmon get nowadays that you can actually ride one? Is this some sort of bizzarre mutant biproduct of all that high-grade ganja, east-side crack and whatever the hell Gordon Campbell's on that Vancouver is famous for? And more importantly, are these ginormous gill-breathers going to rise up and wreak revenge on every sashimi joint and seafood emporium between here and Hastings St.? Enquiring minds want to know.
p.s. Is it somehow Bryan Adams' fault? Because I'm pretty sure that's the sort of thing he's up to nowadays.
Posted by: arto on June 10, 2004 03:59 AMWhy would Lebowskifest need carnival rides when it has the Dude's ride, man? Great for those quick trips to the In 'N Out Burger.
Posted by: tizzie on June 10, 2004 06:41 AMWell, the ones we ride took a page from Calgary's colorful cow display. Orcas in the City!
Funcouver, indeed.
*sigh*
Posted by: salmonberry on June 10, 2004 04:01 PMMost of those are awful, but I kinda like the 'Orcasmic Voyage', which, of course, I read as 'Orgasmic Voyage'.
Posted by: tizzie on June 10, 2004 04:13 PMIf it's any consolation, Salmonberry, Calgary seems to have forgotten about the whole fiberglass cow thing, so maybe Van'll forget about the orcas.
Posted by: arto on June 10, 2004 04:37 PMThere's a house on my street
And it looks real neat
I'm the chap who lives in it
There's a tree on the sidewalk
There's a car by the door
I'll go for a drive in it
And when the wombat comes
He will find me gone
He'll look for a place to sit
cute monkey - baby wombat looks like a rat. Must be a "taste like chicken" thing since newborn rabbits do to.
Posted by: thomcatspike on June 10, 2004 06:32 PMExcuse me while I use this space to blow off the left over adrenalin but.... I just chased a guy away who was trying to break the lock off my garden gate with a metal rod. When I went out and asked what the hell he thought he was doing, he said 'Someone put a lock on this gate!'
'That would be me. Why are you trying to get threw the gate?
'I want to get into the back.'
'That's my back yard.'
'I want to go in there.'
'Look, stop damaging my property or I'll call the cops.'
'Damaging? I wasn't damaging anything!'
At this point he's hiding the pipe behind his back and looking like wounded innocence. I lost my temper and shouted at him until he picked up his two liter bottle of wine and left, letting me know he thought I was very rude. Since then I've been stalking around the house like a dog with it's hackles up, looking for someone to bite. Being a home owner is fun, but I wish I had a large fiberglass moose decorated by a local artist to guard the place.
I'd suggest a large fibreglass wolverine instead. With the fangs. Moose look too innocent to too many people.
Or maybe a big fibreglass pika!
Posted by: salmonberry on June 10, 2004 07:06 PMYou know, a giant fiberglass baby wombat would be enough to scare anybody off.
Posted by: arto on June 11, 2004 06:35 AMOr a large, non-fiberglass, real dog.
In fact, towerbrave, I could hook you up with one. Or two. Just for security purposes, of course. They hardly eat much. Or shed much hair. Or bug you when you're trying to eat a piece of god damn raisin toast without a bunch of slobbering mutts staring at you like Biafran refugees.... spoiled rotten flea bitten ... why I oughta .... oh. Sorry. Where was I?
Um, towerbrave, I'll trade you a dog for your wino, even steven.
Posted by: tizzie on June 11, 2004 08:07 AMPandas are notoriously difficult breeders, forcing Chinese scientists to try everything to encourage them to mate including showing panda porn films.
Some panda porn titles, please?
