23 Feb 07 - 06:31 PM (#1977399) Subject: BS: SinsullAttemptsToKillSpaw From: catspaw49 It was of course all planned from the first and I was possibly just too dumb to see it. It was so easy to be enamored of and to laugh at the many annoying and goofus toys that came my way and I was lulled into a false sense of good humor and friendship. The singing reindeer and the twisting, vibrating, singing, turkey were both a pain in the ass but somehow cute as well. I should have figured something was up when the Lionel train clocks arrived with their mind blowing, heart stopping, alarm, every hour on the hour. With the number of repairs I have had on my heart it was amazing that I didn't go into V-tac! Other things came along and I was always amazed at their annoyance quotient yet considered them harmless outside of the required shrink visits and mind numbing drugs required to have them in your home. And then along came the Dancing Chicken. You pressed the button on his wing and he did his little chicken dance which freaked the cats but generally brought a smile to one and all around at the time. He was so cute and funny that he whiled away his off time just sitting on the table or drainboard where one and all might enjoy the occasional dance and cat freakout. The other day he refused to dance and we thought perhaps his batteries were dead and replaced them. But this was where the problems occurred as he was obviously rigged to do us in. Karen and I were playing a few hands of Rummy at the table. I went over to the corner cabinet and then the stove to check on supper when Karen asked, "Do you smell something burning?" I whiffed and glanced at the stove where the pot roast was happily cooking in the oven and the green beans on the stove top. I was about to say no but then... KAREN: "Hey! The Chicken's smoking!" PAT: "Huh?" KAREN: "The Chicken is smoking!" PAT(still staring at stove): "What the hell are you talking about?" KAREN: "I think the Chicken's burning!!!" PAT: "I'm not cooking chicken." KAREN: "No you idiot....THE CHICKEN!" I finally saw things as they were and sure enough by this time a nice little bit of smoke was rolling off of the fox trotting fowl. I picked him up and moved him to the sink, running a bit of water up his ass and onto his smoking battery pack. Popping the batteries out solved the problem but the happy little bird was a goner and so was my confidence that Sinsull was a friend as she had obviously just tried to kill us. But the worst of it was, the Chicken was fried. We went into mourning realizing that our lives would never again be the same. We had to DO something. Being complete idiots there was but one thing to do. We needed another Chicken. Today, this cousin of our now departed fried fowl arrived and is even more ridiculous. We got him from another site and I see that the linked site is out of stock so he must be a popular guy! This insanity on our part does not forgive Sister Sinsull. The Authorities will be round to question you I am sure........... Spaw |

23 Feb 07 - 07:40 PM (#1977476) Subject: RE: BS: Sinsull Attempts To Kill Spaw From: Stilly River Sage Spaw, sounds like you put a used battery in the chicken. Be sure that all batteries are fresh. If one is weaker, you'll get an exposion or sparks and heat (I did that with a flashlight once, which is why I know. And if you read the instructions in with battery operated items, they tell you to avoid that situation). How can you be holding Sinsull accountable for operator error? SRS |

At a large doctor's office complex around noon I saw the name, Dr. Jerry Goldman. MMR EEG... while waiting for the elevator, so I opened the door and said to the receptionist gate keeper in clear ear shot of the entire waiting room, "Tell Jerry that our tee time at Congressional at 12:30 is canceled" and I got on the elevator. Then at the airport I surrepticiously dropped a small unopenable stainless steel box under my chair in which I had stenciled "Sense of Humor - if lost please return to Homeland security. |

23 Feb 07 - 08:03 PM (#1977504) Subject: RE: BS: Sinsull Attempts To Kill Spaw From: Amos I think Spaw ius witholding critical evidence -- namely, that he got up late at night the night before to piss, walked through the kitchen in the dark, felt the urge and reached for satisfaction, thinking he was grabbing for Cleigh the possum. Unfortunately, he being old and short on rods and cones, he grabbed the chicken instead, and before he realized his mistake, he had tried blowing up the chicken's ass. A huge exhalation, right into the battery storage compartment. Well, you may wonder how ole Spaw survives, his breath being as foul and acidic as it is, and the proof of this is that by morning the outer finish on the battery nearest the chicken's cloaca had turned brown. By later afternoon it was liquified, and the consequences of this little midnight meander can be seen in Spaw's accusations against an innocent woman, above. It is not my business to defame honorable men, but when it comes to accusing virginal beauties like SINSULL of malfeasance, I have to speak up. The facts, good friends, speak for themselves. Spaw is a victim of his own halitosis. A |

27 Feb 07 - 08:19 AM (#1980693) Subject: RE: BS: Sinsull Attempts To Kill Spaw From: Charley Noble THREAD DRIFT ALERT!!! Back in the dark ages, maybe as far back as the Pleistocene, "dancing chickens" were real live chickens featured at carnivals and novelty shops this wide world over. One went up to the display and if so inclined would drop a quarter into the appropriate slot. The chicken would become more alert as the turntable it was sitting on began to slowly spin, and it would begin to scratch at the surface looking for corn kernels, which would occasionally drop from above. This was very entertaining to watch! The last place I recall seeing the dancing chicken "live" was in a small novelty store in New York City's Chinatown, on Mott Street I believe, back in the 1970's. When I was there last May, I found only a pigeon feather or two. Bruce "Utah" Phillips would often muse about the "dancing chicken" as one of his seven wonders of the world, or was that the "dancing grizzly bear"? Whatever! Now back to our normal programming.

27 Feb 07 - 06:46 PM (#1981256) Subject: RE: BS: Sinsull Attempts To Kill Spaw From: SINSULL Remember WKRP and their Easter campaign? It featured tiny little chickens, all yellow and fuzzy, who danced periodically - when the hot plate they sat on was turned up to HIGH. |

27 Feb 07 - 07:09 PM (#1981273) Subject: RE: BS: Sinsull Attempts To Kill Spaw From: catspaw49 Well, I just told this on another thread but somehow it fits here a lot more....................... For many years, the Bob Evans Farms Sausage Company would have a field day open to the public on their actual farm down in Rio Grande, Ohio. One of the many events they had was a chicken flying contest. The chickens were in mail boxes 4 foot off the ground and you had to yell or poke at or generally aggravate the chicken until she left the box on her "flight" and they measured the distance. This actually went on for a number of years until the inevitable happened. A big doofus of a redneck hilljack walked up to his "Chicken in the Mailbox" and from somewhere in his bibs produced a ball bat. With a mighty swing, well before anyone could do anything to stop it, Bubba slammed the back of the mailbox. Amidst a cacophony of "BBRRUUUUCCCKKK" sounds and a small cloud of feathers the chicken was launched into deep right.........and ended any further chicken flying both then and for all time in the future. I would write this off as legend but embarassingly enough, I was there. Spaw |

27 Feb 07 - 10:23 PM (#1981399) Subject: RE: BS: Sinsull Attempts To Kill Spaw From: InOBU A Fiendishly Clever Plan Well, ... after the attempt on Dick Chenny, we thought that the Telliban\Albert Kayda where not very efficient ... until the fiendishly cleaver plan was hatched. Knowing Catspaw was a major sourse of methaine gass, Al Kayda, delivered to our own Sinsull, an incendiary chicken bomb. Knowing that the well meaning Sinsull would send said chicken to Spaw, and the resulting explosion could level the American midwest ... well, as it happens, Benny Laddeen had not taken into account a sudden bean drought, thereby creating an unusual state of gasslessness in the home of Spaw... thereby saving the midwest, and likely the world! |

I am sure there would be some here that would give you a real reward if your "Second Attempt" was successful. However, I would not suggest using another assassin Trojan horse chicken because ol' Spaw49 "may" recognize that as a threat. Even some old cats can learn new tricks. Now, using an exploding egg disguised as a cute little pipping chick about to emerge from a colored Easter egg should do the trick. At his age, Spaw's eyesight and hearin' caint be too good and he will have to be close up an personal with the egg next to his ear as the "ticking" baby chick pips its way outta the egg. After the ensuing explosion, "All the Kings Horses and All the Kings Men will not be able to put Ol' Spaw together again… Big, big problem solved. Spaw, you know of course everyone, well some, okay a few, well really only 1 or 2, er, no one really likes you, even your auntie sinsull what tries to have you kilt. |

07 Mar 07 - 09:31 PM (#1990142) Subject: RE: BS: Sinsull Attempts To Kill Spaw From: JennyO Speaking of cats on fire - there's this little ditty by one of our favourite Oz songwriters: BASINGSTOKE - © Bernard Bolan I've got a cat called Basingstoke, he's a cat you must admire He's black and white, or he was 'till the night that he jumped into the fire What a night! The tale it must be told So grip your seat for you're in for a treat that will make your blood run cold. Basingstoke, he used to be so furry Till he tried to kung-fu the canary. Up he jumped soaring ever higher Then the soaring stopped and down he dropped In the middle of the fire In flames and smoke my Basingstoke went roaring round the room His fiery tum and his blackened bum appeared to spell his doom. What a cat! Whoever would have guessed He could stick his rear in a pint of beer while beating out his chest. Basingstoke, he truly is a trier. It takes guts to sing when you're on fire What a cat! You should have seen him strain Stuck like glue in the bottom of the loo and trying to pull the chain Now life's no joke for Basingstoke so runs the ugly rumour That the fiery hob did not just rob him of his sense of humour Poor old chap! The prospect it appals Just one jump and down with a bump And he's burnt off all his undergrowth. Basingstoke, his tale is truly tragic Fire and smoke, they have robbed him of his magic The former spring-pawed terror of the tiles Just sits and sighs with tears in his eyes 'Cause he only raises smiles. Basingstoke, he used to be a charmer Now ladies joke, they talk of fried banana Poor old chap! He was too young to retire Once he was happy, handsome and hairy Just a red-blooded pussy with a taste for canary Now he comes somewhere between a fritter and a fairy Since he walked the fire. |
