Why does this story not surprise me?
Can someone fix the “Clingon” in the title for the thread?
mea_mark September 29th, 2016 at 11:40
Really, it should be spelled with a ‘K’ not a ‘C’. Oh wait, ok, got it fixed.
mistlesuede September 29th, 2016 at 12:03
Not being a trekkie, I would have most likely spelled it wrong.

“Not being a trekkie…”
Oh, but you’re much (not) more than that. I have a feeling that you’re the only person on Earth (and beyond) who didn’t know who Dr. McCoy was. ;-)

No fair jibing at the uninitiated. Go back to your library; I think I heard a sexy cavegirl yelling in the “Romantic Fiction” section…
:P
Mister Atoz September 29th, 2016 at 20:27
To my credit, I restrained myself for a couple of days.
mistlesuede September 29th, 2016 at 22:57
Or Mr. Atoz.
Mister Atoz September 29th, 2016 at 23:01
I’m only a minor character, though.
mistlesuede September 29th, 2016 at 23:02
Not in my book. ;)
Mister Atoz September 29th, 2016 at 23:52
(((Blushing))) Thanks!
I hope my comment didn’t come across as mean. It was only meant to be snarky.
mistlesuede September 30th, 2016 at 00:10
It did a little, but I chose to not take it that way.
Mister Atoz September 30th, 2016 at 00:16
Sorry about that. My apologies.
mistlesuede September 30th, 2016 at 00:33
No problem. Send me a hug and we are all good. ;)
Mister Atoz September 30th, 2016 at 00:40
(((HUGS))) You deserved more than one.
mistlesuede September 30th, 2016 at 01:19
The more, the better. ;)

Maybe it was the Federation that sent the death threats.
Larry Schmitt September 29th, 2016 at 12:28
How do you send a death threat to a newspaper?
fredoandme September 29th, 2016 at 13:58
in the usual manner.
Larry Schmitt September 29th, 2016 at 14:02
Do you wrap it in fish?
fredoandme September 29th, 2016 at 14:10
i imagine that pixels are involved, though i thoroughly enjoy the idea of fish wrap.
sigh. it really isn’t funny, is it? anymore?

You use the paper to line the bottom of the bird cage. :+)
fredoandme September 29th, 2016 at 14:11
i do. trump is always face up. with his mouth open
for some reason.
The Original Just Me September 29th, 2016 at 14:22
Too bad you can’t get a naked picture of the other end turned up.
fredoandme September 29th, 2016 at 14:27
gracious me! i DON’T want to hurt my birds!!!
for me, and i think i know what fredo and the other dear little birds would say on the issue, it’s significantly more satisfying to lay out a collage of strategically positioned, open mouthed donalds and sit back and let the crap fall where it may!!
and there’s nuuuuuuuuuuuuthin’ he can do about it.
Larry Schmitt September 29th, 2016 at 14:57
That’s because his mouth is never closed.

I had a neurotic parrot. I think that woulda drove him over the edge.
fredoandme September 30th, 2016 at 10:30
i thought all parrots are neurotic. perhaps it would help him focus.
can’t hurt to try.
bpollen September 30th, 2016 at 15:18
He was closer to Michelle Bachmann neurotic.
Unfortunately, he and 3 other birds were lost in a house fire. They were gone before I knew there was a fire. Hell, I barely made it out and I wasn’t even in a cage.
fredoandme September 30th, 2016 at 16:37
oh, my. that’s dreadful. poor little fellows. fire!
very sad.
thank goodness you were lucky, though! you’d be missed round here.
bpollen October 1st, 2016 at 03:05
My friends also miss me… when I duck!
Thanks for the kind words.

I have a feeling these people are not he sharpest tools.

Suzanne McFly September 29th, 2016 at 20:37
Good one lol.
bpollen September 30th, 2016 at 04:10
Sporks.

Carrier pigeon?

It is very Easy to determine the Winner of the Debate. Trump’s Whole Campaign Focus has gone ” OFF THE RAILS”. The Level of PERSONAL ATTACKS is Skyrocketing and the Level of Intelligent Comments is PLUMMETING. The Lying Level is in HIGH GEAR. This IS the DEATH THROWS of Not Only Trump but The Entire Republican Party. Give US,; ” WE THE PEOPLE “, something Solid to think about. A Plan, A Direction, Even An Intelligent Thought to contemplate. Enough of the Squealing and Squawking like an Old Hen.
Suzanne McFly September 29th, 2016 at 17:06
Well in an indirect way, this is Karma working. They supported the bigotry and whistles the republican party has been blowing for decades so they helped create this message.

No need to say sorry, it’s a fact and it’s the truth.
