Quote of the day:

"Whatever you give a woman, she will make greater. If you give her sperm, she'll give you a baby. If you give her a house, she'll give you a home. If you give her groceries, she'll give you a meal. If you give her a smile, she'll give you her heart. She multiplies and enlarges what is given to her.

So, if you give her any crap, be ready to receive a ton of shit."

I am so glad Steve is back! I really missed all of you and it is so nice to be together again. And if we haven't seen you at Reflections yet - get your ass down there! (see quote above) xo

stupid zoo people

You'd think the polar bears are in enough trouble, with the polar cap melting. But here's another reason their numbers are shrinking

ZOO SOLVES MYSTERY OF CELIBATE POLAR BEARS

TOKYO, Japan (CNN) -- Puzzled zookeepers in northern Japan have discovered the reason why their attempts to mate two polar bears kept failing: Both are female.


A 4-year-old polar bear sent to impregnate a female polar bear at a zoo in Kushiro was found to be female as well.

The municipal zoo in the city of Kushiro in Hokkaido brought in a polar bear cub three years ago. They named it Tsuyoshi, after the popular baseball outfielder Tsuyoshi Shinjo, and waited until it reached reproductive age.

In June, the zoo introduced Tsuyoshi to its resident bear, an 11-year-old female named Kurumi, and waited for sparks to fly.

But much to the disappointment of zookeepers, Tsuyoshi never made any amorous advances toward Kurumi.

Earlier this month, zookeepers put Tsuyoshi under anesthesia to get to the bottom of the matter. That's when they made their discovery: Tsuyoshi is a female.

Still, the Kushiro zoo plans to keep Tsuyoshi because he -- or rather, she -- has become immensely popular with visitors.

"I have rather mixed feelings, given the need for breeding, but Tsuyoshi is an idol for Kushiro," Yoshio Yamaguchi, head of the Kushiro zoo, told Japan's Kyodo news agency.

Tsuyoshi will even keep her name.

"We will not be changing it to 'Tsuyoko' since it is loved by citizens (by the current name)," Yamaguchi said.

"Ko" is a common suffix for a Japanese female name.

Meanwhile, Tsuyoshi's "brother," who was adopted by another zoo, has also turned out to be female, Kyodo

Something moronic, but funny.

This is for the girls who haven't already seen it, especially Dawn, Diane, and Theresa!

Some people are just idiots!!!!

We're almost there!

We have almost reached the end of our Time without Steve (TWOS). I want to get it out there on the Blog that we need to start planning our soon-to-be TWS! (You can figure that one out for yourselves.) Would Thanksgiving weekend be too soon? And where? And will he even be available? Or will he OD on Triptophan (sp?) and sleep away the weekend? Or will the reversal of his toilet flush cause him too much consternation to play? So many questions. . . . absolutely no answers. But I just had to get it out there!

I mss you all!!!!!

Thank You Nan

Hello Nan --

This is terrific ! I once tried to google up Cruise Reviews or Cruise Critics or whatever, to find some positive feedback on me. Never found anything.

So I’ve never seen this stuff before, and it’s very gratifying. Also, I can use it in future promos for myself.

Maybe not the photo. It’s a fine picture of a gin&tonic, but that’s about it.

Thanks so much for this Nan. See you soon.
