I had planned on getting the lawn cut today, but I decided that using my power mower would melt the polar ice caps and turn my yard into a lake." Logic seemed to dictate that an ugly yard is the better choice "
Of course, my neighbors keep on belly-aching, but I don't really like any of them anyway. I hit golf balls at their roofs on occasion ... after dark with my night vision goggles on. I love night vision goggles!
I brought this bush inside because it seemed to go well with my pants. What do you think? I plan on wearing this bad boy all over town. Velcro fasteners make placement and adjustments quite simple.
Whoaaa! The doorbell is ringing now .... who the *$%#@!! would be knocking this early? Must be one of those damn kids trying to sell me candy again. 5 dollars for something to make my belly thicker?!?? {Cripes!}
Well, what a nice surprise! It's "Gertal Gertle" ... strange name I know, but she is the greatest crock pot cooker of all times. She is here because of the Romantic Dinner with Myself posts that I had published last week. With 225 comments, I was not really alone.
Hooo wee!!!! Look at her go. She just climbs into the kitchen and gets busy. Today we are making chicken stew (ok, I'm just watching) She is very bellicose - I must say.
I think I might be falling in love??? She is very charming, and smells like gravy. I love me a woman that smells like gravy. Perfume makes me sneeze.
Just as it was time to serve up Gertal's masterpiece .... SHE TURNED INTO A
MONKEY. No, I am still clean and sober, and am not having hallucinations. Here is a photo to prove it.
I said, "Is that really you in there??" .... she nodded yes, and said she wanted to watch the debate between McCain and Obama. We agreed that Obama is a good speaker, but that's about it. McCain looked 20 years younger, and had a lot of make up on.

I think the plant goes very well with your pants, Speedy. Are those the infamous brown pants with the problem in Vegas?
Too bad Gertal turned into a monkey. I was going to ask you to send her over here. I wouldn't mind having her cook up something for me, even if she does smell like gravy. I thought you were going to say she smells like chicken. HA HA! ;) Maybe she smells like chicken gravy though! :D
Maybe your little dog will like to play with Gertal the monkey though. I bet the little sombrero would fit on that monkey if your little dog would share it.
Many congrats on 1,000 posts! That is so impressive! Cool beans! This was a great one---made me laugh as always. :D
Have a great weekend, Speedy! :-)
Cool blog!
Daisy ... when I was talking of commenters making this blog so much fun - YOU are a great example.
I think Mrs. Gertal may turn back into Crock Pot Lady after Midnight. I'll send her your way :-)
I am off to bed ... work tomorrow. Me-Be-over this weekend to see how you have been.
Goodnight!!!!!

Hi Speedy! Howdy?
I've got something for you HERE. Please come check it out and let me know what you think.
Hey Congratulations on your 1000th post!!! Long Live the Speedcat!!! :D
Wooooo hoooooooooo, Congratulations dere Speedy with your 1000th, looking forward to the next 1000 :D
Wow thanks Speedy! Mrs. Gertal was here when I got up this morning and she made me the biggest breakfast I've ever had! She made pancakes, sausage, bacon, fresh fruit, waffles, eggs, oatmeal, Life Cereal (hey Mikey!), grits, cream of wheats, bagels, doughnuts (YES DOUGHNUTS--freshly made, imagine that!)toast, muffins, and cheesy broccoli. (Cheesy broccoli? for breakfast? I guess so!) Then she poured the most delicious gravy over the whole lot and served it up. I never ate so much in all my life!
In fact I am feeling a bit queasy--perhaps I ate a little too much.
I was wondering if maybe I could send her back your way now, Speedy. She made all of these foods in about 20 crockpots that she has all over my kitchen, yes even the CHEESY BROCCOLI! It looks like some kind of crockpot hell in there. I'm a little scared!
I thought I heard some snapping and popping like an electrical overload going on in there. All of her crockpots are too much for our circuit breaker thingy to handle (ok, obviously I am not an electrician and don't know what all that stuff is called! :D HA!) Sparks are flying everywhere. I'm afraid she is going to start a fire!
Plus, I never saw such a messy kitchen before. There is food everywhere. She won't let me in to clean it up either. She says it is her kitchen now, and I can't have it back, and then she laughed this really evil sounding laugh. 8'O
I said "Don't you want to get back to Speedy's place so you can make him breakfast too?"
She said that you are a very nice young man and she misses you except that she thought it was a little strange because you kept smelling the back of her neck and that you drooled on her just a little bit.
But she is a little miffed because I guess when she was a monkey, Marny bit her because she tried to borrow the little sombrero and Marny (Mardy? is that your dog's name?--not sure, can't remember. Oh well!) the dog what's-his-name didn't want to share it with her.
Finally, I told her that she could have MY sombrero if she would just pack up her crockpots and leave my kitchen. I'm afraid I may have hurt her feelings. She left here in a bit of a huff. She wore my sombrero and stacked all 20 crockpots on top of it on her head. What a balancing act! It was quite amazing! If she could spin plates on top of sticks at the same time, she could go on the road with that act.
Anyway, she's finally gone and I've got a big mess to clean up in my kitchen, and I'm feeling even more queasy, and I have to be to work at the library pretty soon too. WHEW!
So, thanks for sending her over. I really appreciate your thoughtfulness. One last word of advice for you though, after this morning, I've realized that I need to be more careful about what I wish for because I just might get it!! It turns out I really didn't want Mrs. Gertal to cook for me after all because I usually just drink a Carnation Instant breakfast in the morning, and I'm good to go.
Happy Saturday to you, Eric! :D
Don't work too hard and congratulations once again on 1,000 posts! I tried to make the longest single comment EVER on this post to celebrate the occasion. I had this second message on with the first one but it said it couldn't be processed. Too long for it to handle, I guess. HA HA HA! ;D
Oh and one more thing, I have a feeling Drowsey is going to want that picture of you on your couch (not the plant-on-your-pants one, the other one) for her next Wednesday post)! :D
Is it warm in here, or is it just me? I think I better open a window. ;)
Oh, I see, the kitchen is on fire, that's why it is warm in here. THE KITCHEN IS ON FIRE?!!!!
OOOPS! I gotta go! YIKES!

Hello Hello!!!
Thanks for stopping in, all. Coming over to visit YOU now :-)
El Muchachos SpeedyCat
I need night vision googles....
Don't want to talk politics but I thought Obama did a horrible job speaking. I was surprised because I've heard he was a great public speaker. Not impressed!
Michelle ... I am not really a political blog either except for some snippets of news. Truth is, I think the guy is a communistic idiot with a hatred of Isreal. Good speaker? No, not really.
The mess we are in now stems from the housing market and oil.
Liberals created the chaos in the mortgage industry. People that do not realize this are not informed on government legislation that created an arena where Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac are the only two Fortune 500 companies that are not required to inform the public about any financial difficulties that they may be having. In the event that there was some sort of financial collapse within either of these companies, U.S. taxpayers could be held responsible for hundreds of billions of dollars in outstanding debts.
Now, consider that the top five recipients of campaign contributions from Fannie and Freddie were Democrats! 17 out of the 25 top recipients were Democrats. No wonder they weren’t willing to reform Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac. It would’ve killed their cash cows.
Barack Obama??? 106,000 dollars in contributions from Fannie and Freddie Mac.
Think that this is not true??? Click here
WATCH THIS!
Oil problems stem from the resistance to let drilling happen here in America. Save the planet?? Ride your bike to work. Why is it OK to drill on one side of the Earth and ruin our economy, but not ok to drill on our own soil??
Democrats cause this time and time again.
BOTH giant problems we have today are caused directly by liberals (Democrats)
People think the democrats will fix these problems?? That is the funniest thing I have ever heard.
What is not funny are the massive programs thaT will become reality in an Obama presidency. He claims to only want to raise taxes on the wealthy .... If you believe that, you probably also believe that Obama will also create world peace.
World peace??? Obama is a neophyte at best in foriegn policy and knowledge of foriegn governments.
His main concern is that we are occupying a muslim nation. See what I mean???
So yes, a good speaker??? I was just joking. This guy is the worst thing that could EVER happen to the USA.
So maybe I should consider myself lucky since I live in Norway, we have started the fall season and then don't need to cut the lawn before next summer? :-)
Eric. Were you reading my mind?!? Thanks for voicing it! :)
Michelle! I guess I went off on a little rant there ... Ha HAAA!!!!
Comments on this post are quite interesting. Thanks for leaving your "smart" opinions :-)
Renny .... will YOU cut my lawn??
speedy you are genius! :)
