From Sparky and All the
Others!!
or.....
Merry Christmas,
Happy New Year and
Seasons Greetings!
From Sparky and
all the Others!!!
We all hope you have a reel good Christmas and
get a lot of presents and lots of yumm y
food, and if you get too much, remember to send me some.
I reely like chocolate chip cookies and stuff
like that, and I specially like Chocolate Cake with exter icing globbed all over
the outside, and eat it with a big glass of Chocolate Milk!
But that's jest me. If you happen to like
regular food like turkey and taters and broccoli and carrots, remember that you
ken jest wrap it up and save it fer later and it'll be jest as good next week as
it was the first time you ate it. Anyhow, don't send any of it to me, cuz
I am jest too busy to eat anything like that.
NOTE: I
think the reindeers above are running cuz the Chocolate Cake candle is burning
their feet.

Sparky's Mom
by Sparky
This is a picture of my mom, Trixie. She
isn't my reel mom, cuz we
adopted her back in the last century, probably around 1990, and she came from a
store in Red River, New Mexico.
Actually, I'm older than her, but she jest
natcherally decided to try to reform me after she saw that I had my gun and
super hero outfit and I hung around with some of the other guys who she started
calling "The Wild Bunch."
Click on her picture to see her a lot bigger.
I don't always like what she tells me to do, but
she probably knows best. The only thing is that she jest won't never come
along with me and my friends on any of our adventures, cuz she always says we'll
either get into trubble or get hurt in a accident or something like that.
I guess I'll have to get her something fer
Mother's Day, but I still don't know what yet, cuz I still owe her some Mother's
Day presents for a bunch of years already, so maybe I'll get caught up sometime
soon. ---Sparky
Dexter's Birthday Party
Since Dexter came to live with us on Mother's
Day, it is also his birthday, so we jest natcherally had to have a big party fer
him. That's me (Sparky!), and Ty waiting fer the candles to burn out so we
ken DIG IN! Unfortunately, by the time the other guys woke up and
figgered out what we was all doing, it was too late, cuz the entire muffin was
all gone except fer the paper wrapper that we always throw away.
OOPS! --- Gloria found out that I had used
some matches fer candles cuz we was fresh out of birthday candles, and we're
never, never supposed to play with matches, so, of course, I got sent to the
corner and had to stand there and I missed the cartoon where Jerry the mouse got
Tom the cat into reel bad trubble and he got sent to cat jail. That's a
reel old pitcher of me before I got my Super Hero Outfit, so don't think that
she also made me dress up like a bum! ---Sparky

While the old folks were on a bike ride
recently, Sniffy hopped out of the van and snuck up on a big bird, like rats do,
and he got a piece of string around the bird's neck and hijacked him! Be
sure to click on the pitcher to see it reel big.
He said that he could see all kinds of
things from way up high where he made the bird take him. He rode around
fer a half hour or so, then came back, and the bird waited while Sniffy got back
into the van and got a couple of crackers and gave them to that bird, and that
made the bird smile reel big!
Sniffy told us it was a good thing that he had
watched lots of cowboy movies, cuz that's how he knew how to drive that bird
with the piece of string that he lassoed him with.

Sparky's
Theories
Gun Buying
When buying a gun it is important to remember that there are reasons
that different persons choose different guns for specific reasons.
For instance, cowboys always buy cowboy guns
called "revolvers" cuz the correct models have holes for six
bullets and the pointy end of the bullet is covered by a strong cover.
This strong cover serves two purposes. It keeps dirt off the bullets so
they don't get dirty and it also keeps the bullet from falling out
of the gun due to the extreme bouncing that happens when you ride a
horse or a car with bad tires or bent wheels.
Sometimes the bullet falls out of the end of the
barrel on pistol guns cuz it don't have any kind of cover to prevent
this constant problem. Fortunately, when you pull the trigger the round
thing that still has 5 good bullets turns around to the next bullet and
by pulling the trigger again you can still shoot something with it.
Also there are two kinds of "Revolver"
Guns. There's gangster guns called
"Gats" and Cowboy Guns called "Cowboy Guns."
Gangster Guns have a reel short bullet pipe cuz when they're making
somebuddy go and get in their car for a one way ride to get them some
cement shoes the gun needs to be short so it can be hidden in their
pocket so nobuddy where they're kidnapping the guy knows what is going
on. The pitcher at right shows a Gat with a exter long bullet pipe.
They're usually about half that long.
Cowboy Guns have the reel long bullet pipe cuz
there's lots of times when a feller needs to use his gun for a hammer.
Frinstance when a feller needs to hang up a gerage sale sign or wanted
poster its reel easy to hammer the nails in without looking all over for
a hammer. If you did it a lot you could probably get a exter holster and
have your gun on one side and a hammer on the other side, but the guys
at the saloon might laugh at you, so it's jest easier to use your gun
instead.
Rifle guns also don't have any cover over the
bullet either. That's why cowboys always have to pull the handle before
they shoot at anything. That handle finds another bullet that you have
previously stuck in through a hole in the side of the thingy that holds
the handle, and puts it in the hole where it gets shot out when you pull
the trigger. The only way you can ride a horse with a bullet already in that
hole is if you have one of those cool horse rifle gun carrying holders
that fastens to the side of the horse. It holds the rifle gun at the
same angle that train tracks run, I think they call that
"horizontal," so no matter how much the horse bumps
the bullet don't fall out and end up in the dirt.
Bumpy horses is also why cowboys drink whiskey instead of
pop cuz pop bottles explode like nitroglycerine if they get shook too
much.
There's a rumor that you can train a horse to not
walk or run bumpy. I seen one of those horses on TV the other night. He
was walking real funny, like a sissy actually, cuz I think they blow up
something with nitroglycerine and make the horse watch, then they put a
jug of it on him and everybuddy runs and hides while he learns to walk
and run without the nitro blowing up. If a horse don't get blown up he's
usually a real good smooth walker and popular enough to get shown on TV
and he's a real hero or something.
I already know that if a horse like that showed up
walking that way in some old cowboy town somebuddy would probably shoot
him cuz they'd think he was sick or something. That's what they do to
horses that can't walk real good.

Buying Yard Equipment
Don't buy no wheelbarrows or wagons made by Acme
cuz they always break or fall apart or grab aholt of a feller and throw
him for a loop and get him injured and even seriously hurt sometimes.

When buying goldfish remember to always try to get
little ones cuz they're cheaper than big ones. The ones that you buy for
8 cents each actually have a 3 cent brain and that's not much thinking
power; that's why they seem to be pretty stupid. If you buy a big 25
cent fish remember that it still has that 3 cent brain cuz they don't
get any smarter when they get bigger. But that 3 cent brain has to run a
25 cent body so it has 2 work real hard and a lot of things don't get
done real good. I was trying to train one of them some things but it's
real hard cuz they have a short attenshun span and they don't learn
nothing. Somebuddy on one of those animal shows said he was teaching his
to not need to eat and he was doing real good (the fish, not the guy)
and just as he thought he had him trained, the dumb thing went and died.

My best friend Hiram was the first in the family
to wear a "Rambo Rope." He came home from the store with just
a cloth ribbon tied around his neck like a necktie and I guess it looked
cool enough for those times. Then one day Hiram and a couple of the
other guys was clowning around and eating chocolate chip cookies and
drinking coffee and getting real crazy and the necktie wound up around
Hiram's head just below his ears, and Boy, did it look cool! It
started a new thing around the place and Hiram wore that Rambo Rag
around his head for quite a while until it started to bend down his fur
underneath it and it looked like he had a scar where it had been, so he
took it off and somebody else wore it til they got a scar too.
Then one day Sparky found a real nice green rope
on the garage floor and he got to thinking how he might be able to
invent something with it. It was strong like a rope that Rin Tin Tin had
rescued somebody out of a well with, and it was a real nice dark green
so it wouldn't show the dirt, so he finally remembered that old Rambo
Rag, so he tied a knot in it and stuck it on his head and it really
looked great! Since it was made from a piece of rope, of course, it
would be called a Rambo Rope.
Then Sniffy found a piece of gold colored rope on
the floor and made it into a Rambo Rope, too. His is gold colored so he
has to be real careful when eating spaghetti or Mexican Food or it will
show the stains real bad. He also has to be real careful with his tail
for the same reason. He also added some gold shiny beads to his Rambo
Rope after watching a movie where the lady had some of those big beads
in her hair. His Rambo Rope is probably the coolest one in the entire
neighborhood.
Following is the complete directions for you to
make your own Rambo Rope. To make a Rambo Rag, you have to use a piece
of cloth instead.
Take a piece of string that you can find on almost
any garage floor or out in the yard. Wrap it around your head where you
want to wear it and pull one end down to where it kinda hangs down to
your neck. Tie a knot in it and adjust it so it's not too tight. Now cut
off the other end after you and all of your best friends decide how long
to make it so it looks the coolest. Now you can untie it and see how
long it is all together. The next step is to look all around the
neighborhood til you find a piece of the correct size and color of rope
that you can take home with you. After getting it home, you can put it next
to the piece of string that you used to measure on your head and cut the
rope to the same size. Then you simply tie it in a knot and put it
around your head and just like magic you'll look real cool and you'll
have a piece of rope with you at all times to use for all sorts of
things of a safety nature.
Frinstance, if somebuddy gets snake bit on the ear
you can tie it around their neck to keep the poison out til the guy at
the hospital can get to work on them. If somebuddy falls down the well
you can usually throw it down so they can get out. You can tie it around
your pants to keep them from falling down if you don't have a belt. You
can use it to smack somebuddy on the back when you're mad at them. You
can use it to tie yourself into the car so in case of a wreck you won't
fly out and get mangled. You can use it to tie yourself up in the air
out of sight under the bed until bath time is over with and it's too
late and you have to miss your turn til next year. You can use it to
have fun with the neighbor's cat by tying him up inside a car that's
gonna go to New York pretty soon. Course, you'll need to go get another
one cuz hopefully that cat won't be back.
If you're like us guys and go to work reglarly and
earn cash, then you will be able to afford to just hitch a ride to the
rope store and get almost any color or size of rope to use for your
project. That's when you can become really cool, and some guys even have
several different Rambo Ropes they can wear depending on what they're
doing.

Here are some interesting facts
about the Easter Bunny. I jest found out what his reel name is. I never
woulda guessed that his original name was Percival Pflueglehorn. He
changed it cuz little kids couldn't say it even once in a row.
Frinstance, it would be reely hard
for a little kid to ask his mom, "Mommy, when is Percival
Pflueglehorn coming?" That's why he changed it in the summer of
1853 right after dinner.
Actually, the Easter Bunny isn't
jest a guy, he also has a lot of helpers in his family, and a lot of
them are girls, and they let him think he's the boss, even though they
do whatever they all want to. All of them call each other "The
Easter Bunny."
The other thing I learned was that
bunnies don't lay no chocolate eggs. They make them out of chocolate
that they get when they squish chocolate beans that they grow on special
plants in their big plantation that they have at the in-between pole
near the Panama Canal where it's reel hot and there are a lot of jungle
trees there so nobuddy don't find them and cause no trubble for nobuddy.
They also trade some of their chocolate for other things like jelly
beans and all the other stuff they give to kids all over the world.
They don't have no sled or deers
cuz they can hop so fast that they found it to be easier to jest hop
around and take candy with them.
They don't like climbing down no
chimneys either, so they traded Santa Claus some of their chocolate eggs
for his invention that lets them open your front door and put the
goodies on your table. That's why Santa Claus is so fat. In some cases
that invention don't work on certain locks so they jest leave them
hidden in the grass and bushes around your house.

Their seems to be a lot of confusion about the
various kinds of donuts and other things about them. A lot of people
think that all donuts are round and have a hole in the middle. I got to
wondering about why they cut out that hole then sell the donut holes
separately, cuz that seems like a lot of extra work.
I ate a donut, then I ate a donut hole. They
pretty much tasted the same, cept that I had to eat about 8 or 7 donut
holes just to get full, and they're reel hard to dip into coffee without
dropping them. For that reason I perfer to just eat a reglar donut
instead and they can feed them holes to some wild animals that jump in
there garbage can after they throw them out.
Another thing is that some donut making places
give you 13 donuts when you only order 12 of them. This is called a
"Baker's Dozen." They do this so if you get one of the bad
ones that they mighta dropped on the floor or burned one side of it reel
bad, they just give it to you instead of throwing it away. I don't know
why they call 12 donuts a dozen instead of just calling it twelve
donuts. Maybe some people think it's easier to say "Gimme a dozen
donuts" instead of "Please give me 12 donuts."
We got into this argument before when we tried to
decide why they call a "Taco" a Taco. It's cuz if they called
it "a pair of pliers," then what would they call that pair of
pliers? It gets reel complikated whenever you try to find out something
important like that. Then we tried to decide why they call it a pair of
pliers when it is just one thing. Then somebody asked about the pair of
pants and why we don't wear a pair of shirts. I know why they don't sell
a pair of donuts. It would just be a waste of time. Two donuts wouldn't
even be enough to bother getting your teeth and whiskers dirty over.
Their's two kinds of donuts also. Theirs cake
donuts and raised donuts. Cake donuts are made out of the stuff they
make cake out of, but they don't put no candles in them cuz they'd melt
when they cook them in that hot grease. Also they're real heavy cuz
there made from solid cake stuff that soaks up a lot of that cooking
grease and a lot of that icing that they soak them in to make them exter
good. If you can get them to soak them in chocolate fudge syrup there
really good. There also real heavy, so you can only eat just 8 or 7 or
so before almost getting sick.
Raised donuts are made from some flowers and water
and some powdered bugs that make the mixed up stuff blow up like little
balloons inside the dough stuff. If you let the mixture sit for a hour
or so they puff up pretty big. If you ferget and let them puff up too
long, they'le eventually get so big and fluffy they'll float away cuz
all those little balloons take over and that's what happens. When they
cook the donuts in that grease it kills those bugs and they don't puff
up no more and they also don't soak up much of that yummy grease. For
that reason they usually put on some icing like they commonly put on
cakes cuz it dries on top of the donuts and don't fall off for a couple
of weeks till the donuts get really nice and crunchy.
There's also a really cool invention that some
lazy guy invented. He got tired of drilling out those holes so he just
cooked some of them with the holes still in and the donut puffed up reel
good. Then he took one of them things that the doctor uses to give you a
shot in the butt, except that it was a reel big one, and he filled it up
with jelly and gave the donut a shot of that jelly. Then he put some
icing on top and made a really good donut. It was so good that I wanted
to eat 9 of them, but they were so big that I could only eat three of
them till I almost got sick.
Then there's another kind of donuts that they sell
a lot of them in New York. They call them "Bagels," and they
make them reel cheap. They make some flowers and water mixture with some
other ingredients and mix it up reel good and I think they even put in
some salt and onions and other yucky ingredients. Then they somehow make
them with a hole already in them, probably so they don't have to drill
out the hole and throw it away. Then they cook them in hot water. If you
cut them apart like two slices of bread, you can glob cream cheese all
over them and they're not too bad, except that they're reel dry and you
also have to put on your own grease if you want them to taste like
they're not made out of cardboard. You can use butter in a pinch, but I
recommend that you just stick with the aktual aktrule actuile
actule actual jelly donuts if you're serious about eating
something reel good.
There's lots of other things made like donuts, but
if your a perfectionist like me you would be wise to stick with the
ordinary jelly donut. Donuts that are shaped like the Easter Bunny or
Santa Claus or a witch on a broom are just gimmicks and since they taste
exactly the same, they're not worth the extra money.
Another reel good and wholesome food is a Cheese
Danish. It's sort of like a donut, but it's sort of square and filled
with some kind of stuff they call cheese. When I think of cheese I
always think of that Rat Cheese like my brother Sniffy likes. Rat cheese
has holes already ate out of the slices where the rat got chased off
before he could finish eating it. Anyway, Sniffy thinks that they take a
piece of rat cheese and mix it with icing and butter and sugar and a lot
of other yummy ingredients and put it into that Cheese Danish, Then they
put some icing on top and put it into a plastic wrapper that keeps it
from drying out. When you buy it at the place where they sell them the
first thing you have to do is figger out how to rip a hole in that
plastic wrapper so you can tear it off and start eating. Them Danishes
don't seem to go reel good with coffee cuz their too big to fit in the
cup for dipping and if you just pour coffee on them they get pretty
soggy and you can't eat them with a fork no more. But they're reel good
anyway, so my brother Hiram invented a way that you can just eat a big
bite of that Danish then take a drink of coffee and it's just as good as
taking a reglar donut and dipping it into the coffee like a lot of
people do.
Return to Squircle
Cinnamon Rolls can be perty good, but they don't
always make them real good. Frinstance, sometimes when they are on sale,
like "buy one package and get two more fer free," you should
inspect them carefully. What they do is pick up all the bread stuff
mixture off the floor that fell there when they threw it at each other
like a snowball fight. Then they smoosh it flat and put cinnamon and
sugar sprinkled on it to cover any slight dirt that might have got onto
it. Then they roll it up in a circle that's about 3 inches around then
cut it off in pieces about a inch long. Then they put them close
together into a tinfoil pan and they start to swell up and get fat. When
they get fat enough to start to jump out of the tinfoil pan, they stick
them into a oven to cook them and kill all the germs so nobody don't get
sick. Then they squirt on some icing to cover up any dirt that you might
still be able to see. Don't nobody worry, cuz there's not usually any
reel dirt on the floor. They wear some white bootees that they put on
when they come into the room where they work with the bread stuff, and
they don't smoke no segars or nothin, so things stay reel clean so you
don't need to worry none.
Pie is another good dessert, but it is so full of
stuff that I always thought of it as "Junk Food." It goes
pretty good with coffee or milk, but never with root beer. For that
reason I don't rate it very high as a dessert or even just to snack in
front of the TV.
If you're like me, you probably just perfer the
icing. It's reel hard to make, but you ken get it in a can that you open
just like soup. It's a lot better than soup, though, cuz it comes in
better flavors like chocolate, coffee, stromberry, cherry, vanilla, and
another couple that I forgot about. You sort of eat it like pudding, but
it's more concentrated so you don't have to eat so much of it to get
full. And it goes reel good with coffee. In fact, if you're a
adventuresome person, you can just put about 18 or 15 spoons of icing in
your coffee and mix it up reel good and drink it. It's reely exter good
that way.

The
Latest About Cats
You might have noticed on many TV
shows they show somebuddy calling the fire department to get their cat
out of the tree. This is jest one more reason to not have anything to do
with a cat.
Back in the old days...actually in
the caveman days, everybuddy lived in caves and caves didn't never catch
on fire and burn down, so there weren't any firemen back then, and, of
course there was no need for firemen and fire trucks weren't invented
yet so they just weren't available even if you were a rich guy.
Getting back to the cats, back
then people had only dogs cuz horses weren't invented yet but dogs could
bark and let you know if a dinosauer was gonna come in and eat you up or
something. There weren't any cats running a round
cuz every time one of them went up a tree and he couldn't get back down,
it was jest too bad. He jest stayed there until one of those terry-daktel
dinosauers came flying by and grabbed him up fer dinner. The ones that
din't get ate up jest stayed there and starved cuz they were too stuck
up to eat tree leaves and they eventually dropped dead and starved.
Since there wasn't no scientists
or concerned citizens yet back then nobuddy worried much about all them
cat skeletons piling up in the trees. When a tree died and fell down the
skeletons fell out and landed in the dirt and nobuddy payed much
attenshun cuz they was mostly busy trying to figger out how t o
catch dinosauers and mammoth elephants for dinner, and cat skeletons was
the last thing on anybuddy's mind. Over zillions of years the trees full
of cat skeletons kept falling down and wound up in a big pile all over
the place. Then everybuddy moved away and the trees got covered up with
dirt and eventually something happent to them and they became petrified
and turned to stone. The cats also became mad first then petrified and
also turned to stone.
That's why if you go to the
petrified forest in Arizona they still sell pieces of petrified trees,
but they keep thinking the petrified cats are some kind of dinosauers or
something. And they won't sell you any of their bones or skeletons. They
jest keep putting them in drawers and saving them for something.
Ha, ha, ha, I jest got tickled
when one of my friends reminded me about the time somebuddy called a cop
to get the cat out of a tree, cuz the firemen were busy squirting water
on a fire somewhere else. Anyway, cops aren't the exactly same as
firemen and they don't have no ladders on the top of their cop cars, so
they usually get cats out of the tree with their gun. Then the guy jest
has to go get him a new cat. And since you can't never train a cat to do
any neat tricks, you jest have to train him to come in for time to eat,
and that's reel easy cuz that's about all we see that cats ever do.
Also, they can't never run no computer or typewriter cuz their claws
always scratch the letters off of the buttons so they can't tell what
their typing.
As we all know, dogs are reel
different, cuz you have to teach them how to pertect you and how to run
for help if the mine caves in or if somebuddy falls down the well. Some
of them even can go get the newspaper, so they're much more valuable and
harder to replace, but, of course, they don't never climb up in no trees
so that's a problem you jest won't never have to deal with.

Did you ever see such a scary
feller as the Haunted Cat in this here pitcher? His eyes jest
look right through you, kinda like Xray Vision, but he's not even close
to being like Superman. Actually, I think he might reely be a girl, cuz
his name is some kind of a car name like Cadillac, or Lamborghini, or
Mercedes or maybe Beemer, I can't remember, but I heard some lady on TV
with the same name, so it's probably Mercedes. As soon as this feller
seen my gun, he jest sat there and got reel quiet, and din't even act
interested in my brother Sniffy, who looks sorta like a mouse, even
though he's reely our Family Rat.
P. S.: Don't send me no nasty
letters about what I say about cats. Remember, I'm a dog, so that's jest
my opinion, as well as a bunch of others also who have the same opinion.
I also know that if cats wasn't busy having a bad day they would also
say the same thing about dogs and everything else on the planet.
NOTE:
This cat was not physically
harmed during this picture shoot, but his mood was pretty bad.

I was watching an interesting program the other
night and it showed a guy putting new shoes on a reel big horse. This
wasn't jest a reglar cowboy horse, it was a reely big horse-wagon horse.
First the guy took a wire brush thingy and cleaned
a lot of gook out of the horse's foot next to the shoe. Then he took a
big wire cutter thingy and pried the horseshoe off and pulled out some
nails.
Next he took a wire brush and brushed off the
bottom of the horse's foot. Yukkk...it hurt me jest to watch, and
the horse turned around and looked till he couldn't look neither.
Then the guy took a funny looking knife and
started cutting off part of the foot inside the hoof. Then he got his
big wire cutter thingy again and cut off part of the horse's hoof.
He then got a giant file and filed away on that foot until he decided it
looked jest right.
He kept saying to clean around everything except
leave the frog alone. I couldn't believe it, but that horse had a
dried out frog stuck in the middle of his foot, and the guy jest left it
there. I remember hearing that all horses have a frog on each
foot, but I still don't know why, so I jest guess they all go around
stepping on frogs.
Anyway, The next thing he (the little guy) did was
to bring over a red hot horseshoe and he stuck it on the horses foot and
a cloud of smoke came out right away! If I was that horse, that
little guy would have taken the place right next to that frog, but that
horse must have been in a reel good mood cuz he din't even get
mad. Then the guy filed off the burned spots and did it another
couple of times till the shoe fit jest right. He took some special
nails and nailed that shoe onto the bottom of the horse's foot.
Yeooow...I couldn't watch, and the horse still din't stomp on the guy.
The final thing was to touch up everything with
that big file, file off the sharp ends of the nails that stuck out of
the side of his (the horse's) foot and file his thing that looked like a
fingernail and pretty him up reel good.
I don't know, but us guys jest go barefoot cuz our
feet are a lot like a horse foot and reglar shoes don't stay on very
good, and none of us are willing to let nobody staple or sew shoes on
us.

By Sniffy
Me and Jim was out riding around and we seen a guy
putting up a funny fence. He had some of those metal fence posts that
cowboys hammer into the ground with their guns then put Bob Wire on them
to keep their cows from running off. Then he had some pieces of that
wire they put in the hole and pour cement on to make a sidewalk. That
wire is welded together to make a section about 3 feet tall and 8 feet
long and it looks like a big tic-tac-toe thing except with more lines,
and the guy fastens them to the fence posts with those things that you
tie around the bread bag to keep it closed so no cooties can get in and
eat holes in the bread.
We came back a little while later and that same
guy was there with a different truck and trailer and he let out a bunch
of goats and they was running wild all over that side of a little hill
and they musta been starved cuz they was eating up all the weeds. By the
time they left all of them weeds was gone and the hill was bare. The
next day went by that place again, so we could show Sparky, and them
goats was on a different part of that hill and they was still eating up
more weeds, so they must be weed goats.
Sparky checked his www machine under weed goats
and it said that there is a guy here in Denver that gets paid by the
city to let his goats run wild and eat up weeds so they don't catch on
fire and burn up (the weeds, not the goats).
We also seen a pitcher on TV about some old
country where they have a lot of goats and that looked jest like that
hill when them goats was done, so we guessed that goats jest like to eat
weeds and stickers and stuff.
For more information about these weed goats you
can't click here and get any information cuz they took away that web
page. But you can search the web for "Weed Goats"
and see what you find.

We seen a movie the other night on
TV (we watch a lot of TV) and the guy was driving on the wrong side of
the street. Then when he got into town everybuddy was driving on the
wrong side of all the streets. Then they was talking about how it was in
England and they jest drive on the wrong side of the street all the time
cuz that's what everybuddy there wants to do.
Then they get into trubble when
they cross over the border into another country where they drive on the
correct side of the street and there is a mad scramble when everybuddy
is trying to cross over to the other side of the street and there are
all sorts of terrible crashes and also a few good ones where somebuddy
crashes up a car they was going to get rid of anyway.
I think the guy said there was a
hospital close to the one border so when you get in a crash you ken jest
walk there and not get into an ambulance that might also get crashed up
when he tries to cross over.
