He heard you had some suet recipies.

the farmer said...

hes right too. That suet there is my home mix. Although he seemed more interested in the sunflower seed. Some of which he flicked onto the ground to high praise from the squirrel army below.

i et up too ate to see any crap birds. sigh. had chickadees breed in the area. maybe if i put hot water in the birdbath. starlings love that.

pjk said...

What self-respecting bird doesn't want to preen itself before crapping in the new, heated birdbath on the way out?

A little too Spencer Tracy hotel room bathtub for my taste, pansy.

May next year be better for us all that infest the S.B.L.

Cheers and safe driving.

i just empty out a milk jug of hot water in the birdbath. it's melting now.

pjk said...

Birdbaths around here would most likely be catfeeders, pansy. Even more than birdfeeders are really squirrelfeeders.

haven't seen squirrel or birds, but the stray mouse hunt here. did see a hawk take out 2 crap birds tho.

pansypoo said...

almost 50 in milw. a squirrel came by + then i had a plethora of chicadees, woodpeckers, and song sparrow. not 1 crap bird.

nearly the entire US cell phone system shuts virtually down for about 40 minutes after midnight EST on 12/31/xx. I did not know this until working customer service for one of the major cell phone companies on the night in question.

apparently about 78 million idiots all decide that they have to send a voice, text, picture mail or email to their entire fucking contact list in honor of the unprecedented event of, well, something that happens every year. And it blows the entire system out of the water.

and annoys the fuck out of customer service reps who have to explain to Aunt Tillie in Omaha why she can't call her granddaughter in Buffalo to wish her a happy new year and complain about them dragging Dick Clark's corpse out of cold storage again. And we get to tell her "No ma'am, there's nothing wrong with your phone and no we won't give you an adjustment for the inconvenience, it's just because the system is stressed out far beyond its design parameters."

Gee, I wonder if such a thing ever happened before. Besides NYE that is.

Probably at Brett Favre's New Year's Bash, he/it did.

Or both, for that matter.

the farmer said...

It all caught on tape on the new Brett Favre Gone Wild New Years Eve Party video available from NFL dot com.

oh poo. favre is just a good ole boy with a really good arm.

pjk said...

How do ya think he developed that grip, arm strength, and quick relese at such an early age, pansy?

Still working on the Internet do's & don'ts, however. Maybe if Miley Cyrus did a "the More You Know, you know?" ad, he'd get the gist after he got bored sizing her up.

Like that 5 bucks a gallon shit being bantered around out there now? They're just trying to get us ready for what has already been decided.

I got your free market economy right Hee-Ya, boys.
