Cats. :eyes:

1. Which limb are you prepared to sacrifice?

:P

[Oeditpus Rex]

3. How 'bout one of Tom Cruise's?

[skygazer]

2. Yeah, good luck with that

Who's going to put the bandages ON you? :P

[Oeditpus Rex]

5. I was sorta counting on the Sisters of Mercy

Or the Friends of the Friendless. :(

[Tuesday Afternoon]

7. the Friends of the Friendless

you know I will be there ;)

with the rest of the gang/parade.

eta: what happened to Lucy that her leg is bandaged?

[Oeditpus Rex]

8. I couldn't find a pic to go with that

So let's just sing the song:


We are Friends of the Friendless, yes we are, yes we are
We are Friends of the Friendless, be they near, be they far
We remember the forgotten and we sober up the sotten
We are Friends of the Friendless, yes we are, yes we are

:D

Lucy apparently got clawed by another cat, or somehow her leg got wounded, but it was small enough that I couldn't see it. It abscessed, so I took her to the vet yesterday morning.

9. aww ...sheesh poor Lucy

(that is not baby talk, right?)

I looked for the YouTube for Lucy sitting on the park bench pouting when she meets the Friends of the Friendless...

we sober up the sotten (damn. what a line! good word -- sotten!)

11. 'I was a mess'

:D

There's a disturbing dearth of "I Love Lucy" photos, etc. on the internets. You can find a lot of the standard pics, like Lucy and Ricky posing, or shots of collectible junk, but there aren't nearly enough pics from the series. x(

[Tuesday Afternoon]

13. there is never ENOUGH Lucy...no such thing as too much Lucy

I wish every episode was freeze framed. One still pic after another. I am as nuts for Lucy as you are for Monty Python.

[Oeditpus Rex]

14. Heh... don't misunderestimate me

I find many more opportunities to quote Python in context because they ripped on just about everything, but that doesn't mean I can't riff "I Love Lucy" and lay some serious trivia on ya. I've been a fan since I was 11 or 12 and I have three or four books about it.

Same with "MASH," btw.

[Tuesday Afternoon]

16. trust me on this...

I would never underestimate you. :hug:

:shrug:I think my love affair with Lucy began at the age of 14. Dad had been promoted and transferred to Bumfuck, Egypt x( and Lucy and Ethel became my best friends.:loveya: I think they showed 3 "I Love Lucy" shows back to back and then a "Here's Lucy" before the nightly news.:o From 4:00 to 6:00 I was glued to the TV. :popcorn: I still watch her almost every day thanks to the TV-land channel.;)

Mash was one of the best TV shows ever,,,after I Love Lucy, of course :D

4. Wish I could be there to lend a hand.

:) Good luck!

[Oeditpus Rex]

6. Awww, someone who isn't teasing me

:hug:

10. Talk nice to her, give her some tuna.

Then go slow, be gentle and start to remove the bandage. When she gets upset, back off. Calm her down, and again work on the bandage. Try to get it to a point that she can get the rest off herself; you know she doesn’t like it. :hug:

[Oeditpus Rex]

12. That's what I've been doing

If you count the time between removal sessions, it's taken me about three hours to pull off three inches of bandage. x(

15. Cat person here. I understand.
