I’ll start. rolled my BD gift, and I’ve had some wine, and I just started thinking of some of the funniest conversations I’ve had with SO, John. I was in the kitchen one day, making a salad, and he came out and started just jabbering to me about how we got some of the neighbors mail, or which night was garbage night…or some such. Suddenly he stopped and said “You’re not even listening to me!”. I said, “Yes I am!”. He said, “No you’re not! You’re just standing there, slicing your tomato and not listening to me at all!”. I laughed and said, “Busted! You’re right. I wasn’t listening.” He kinda‘ wailed, “WHY??? Why aren’t you listening?”. I just said, “Sometimes what I’m thinking about is more interesting to me than what you’re talking about.”. He said, “I’ve been waiting all my life to talk about these things and now you’re here.”. And then we both cracked up. But it was sweet what he said.
Or just show me a sweet kitty. Either way.
A dog walks into a bar.
The dog jumps up placing his front feet on the bar counter while standing on his hind legs. One of his front paws is bandaged. The dog looked at the bartender.
The dog angrily growled, "I'm looking for the man who shot my paw!"
So, this is…something. Yesterday on my BD I went to Trader Joe’s and my total was 61 dollars. I said, hmm. It’s 61 dollars, I’m 61 today, I was born in 61…I got home and told my John, and he said well, guess what the pick two number was today? I said OMG 61? He said no. 20. Which was the date.
lol! We have the most fun time together.
happy happy day!!!!

My dog was a liar. Rocket was a black lab. She was not allowed on the sofa and had been told so very often as a pup. We thought she had got the message, when we would get home we could see her coming to the door to greet us from the left, which was the hallway from the basement. I would praise her lavishly.
One day I got home and again Rocky was coming from the left of the house. Something made me check the sofa and it was warm! When she would hear the car coming in she would quickly get off the sofa and go to the other side of the door and greet us from there as if she had not been near the couch.
She lived with us for 14 years and I never bothered blocking off the living room. I let her keep her little secret.
What an unfortunate accident! I guess the owners are devastated.
A floating restaurant that was a famous Hong Kong landmark has sunk, days after it was towed away from the harbour where it operated for nearly 50 years.
The Jumbo restaurant capsized in the South China Sea while on its way to an undisclosed location, its parent company said.
Aberdeen Restaurant Enterprises said it was "very saddened by the incident" but that no crew members were injured.
The restaurant closed in March 2020 as the Covid-19 pandemic hit.
More than 3 million guests are believed to have eaten its Cantonese cuisine over the years, including the Queen, Tom Cruise and Richard Branson.
It had featured in several films - including a Bond movie - but the pandemic dealt the business a fatal blow as diners turned away.
Marine engineers had been hired to inspect the floating restaurant before the trip, and "all relevant approvals" had been obtained, the owners said.
The vessel was due to stay at an undisclosed location while it awaited a new operator.
But it sank on Sunday near the Paracel Islands after it "encountered adverse conditions" and began to take on water, Aberdeen Restaurant Enterprises said.
"The water depth at the scene is over 1,000 metres, making it extremely difficult to carry out salvage works," it added.
While the pandemic was the final straw for the restaurant, it had faced financial issues for years.
Operator Melco International Development said last month the business had not been profitable since 2013 and was making large losses.

When a tag used to monitor oystercatchers migrating to Orkney was tracked to a residential street in west London, it sparked a nationwide appeal.
Researchers were baffled by the movements of GPS tracker which had fallen off a bird on an island beach.
It transmitted signals from locations including a pizza restaurant, a campsite and eventually Ealing.
But now the mystery has been solved - the holidaymaker who innocently picked up the tag has come forward.
And Mike German is making arrangements to return the device to the university researchers tracking the oystercatchers.

Happy birthday, I have a funny story, or so I think. In the 60`s, my family traveled from the midwest to California. We had 4 kids under 13. I was 9, we stopped at a small store, we all went in, I was slow to get to the car. They left!! I sat down on the steps, Infront of the store, an old man came over and sat down. He asked me what are going to do, now that your family has gone? I said, I think I need to find a job. He said silver mines are good work or cattle herder. Maybe 25 minutes later, they returned, mom leapt from the car with tears streaming down her cheeks, she asked if I was scared. I said no, I found a job. She growled, get in the car!!!!
