No, not yet, that I know of anyway. My betta fish has been dying for so long now I think he forgot the way. He just floats on his side on top of his puddle. Their float bladder is the first thing to go - lets you know their time is coming. This morning when I looked in on him he was completely upside down. I thought "Is this it, has it happened?" but when I stirred the water he righted himself & started moving around. It's a long drawn out process for them & it just wears at ya watching them go through it. I'm getting too old for this kind of thing. Maybe I'll just have plants for pets from now on.
Doll, you may have found a place of rest but I'm still on the trail.

I have killed more plants than Agent Orange.

I think what I love most about cats is their amygdala and how well they handle rejection.
"Is this it, has it happened?"
I never met the man
but I am fond of a phrase Gus used in short timers
"There it is"
From the movie Full Metal Jacket based on the novel Short Timers by Gustav Hasford U.S.M.C. retired

I am still in mourning for my dog

Thinking about folding money and the lack of it.

I would have spent a thousand bucks and gave him a chance if I had it.

Looked in my wallett and I got two five dollar bills and life is good
it is almost summer and avocados are two for a dollar


The cat belongs to me little sister. She asked me to take it to the Animal Defense League to have it neutered.

I know that woman as well as a man can know a woman. I could see what was coming. It has been two days since the operation and I still have the cat.

The only down side to having a sister is the occasional cat.

I think I am going to go with cockroaches as pets for awhile. I want something around I can kill and feel good about it.

You know anything about Stolen Valor?

I had a user name Short Timers over at another site I used to post too.
I asked jimboloco if it would be disrespectul for a four f hippy conscientious objector to use a cb handle that might seem to infer service to my country.

No Cecil thank you for your reply I would never delete it.

Totally has me laughing
such a catch, night nite, Jack.

All of my sensations are wild.
