    No need for that when you guys are throwing them at each other. I will grab a seat and watch the show.

    Sorry to disappoint...maybe you can seek to needlessly stir some shit up in another thread...I think this one is pretty much dead.

    Again, sorry.

    Are there exceptions? Sure, that's why I used the term 'tend'.

    I can't remember your exchange with hobbes but let me give you a thumbnail on him. Hobbes and I are buddies. We've had dinner with him, his father and his brother along with me and my wife. Great guy.
    It's true, I did misunderstand your post as being directed at me. However, like Sly, Wookee and hobbes, you could never get on the wrong side of me. Well, I guess it's theoretically possible but virtually impossible. Why? Because you stand up for what's right and I respect that in a person. I respect it a lot.

    Dad, Michael, and I enjoyed the company of you and your beautiful wife.

    @Lanny , we should get together again sometime soon. Maybe order pizzas and watch some of those western movies we've been talking about.

    Hey man, believe me, I don't have a problem with Hobbes, never have.

    fwiw, Calvin and Hobbes along with The Far Side are my fav all time comic strips...in fact my Orange Tabby who passed away about 2 years ago was named "Hobbes" in honor of Calvin and Hobbes and is still my wall paper on this Mac.

    And this is the picture of him that I use.

    I can see why you named him Hobbes.

    Hobbes, I've got some Westerns saved on my DVR just for you and your dad.
    By the way, we found a pizza joint near by that makes the dough for their crust by throwing it up in the air while giving it a good spin. Yep, pizza made the old fashioned way. It's called Flying Pie Pizza. I had a hot date last night. Took my wife out to the Flying Pie in Lake Oswego's Mountain Park. The service was lousy and their beer selection was horrible. According to the bar tender, I had one of their least hoppy beers and it tasted like the most hoppy beers I've ever tasted. I don't like a lot of hops in my beer. They didn't have Guiness, Maltnomah, Terminator, Kirin, Tsing Tao, Widmer Hefeweisen (strangely, they did have a Widmer neon sign that was lit and on their wall but none of Widmer's most popular beer, hefeweisen ), St. Pauli Girl, Pilsner Urquel, Dos Equis, Moretti or even Budweiser. Nothing but hoppy crap that I can't drink. Take out is going to be another matter 'cause I can pair it with whatever beer I like.

    I think I've got both One Eyed Jacks, The Appaloosa, The Big Country, The Bravados and a couple others that I can't recall. Oh wait, I've got The Searchers, my favorite John Wayne Western although Red River is a very close second.

    Yeah, and oddly enough he had some of the same mannerism's a Calvin's buddy...he loved for me to rub his belly and he'd follow me around the yard or in my garden, walk in front of me a couple of steps, stop, roll over on his back with all fours up in the air and wait for me to rub that damn belly.

    Kinda like this....remind you of anyone?

    Hehe. Hobbes in pretty much every way.

    I had a tuxedo cat named Snoopy and he would get into the weirdest places. He would often kill birds and mice then carry them to my front door as a prize. I would always congratulate and pet him lovingly. But that was a nasty chore to clean up after such messes. Haha.

    My parents had a cat just like that. It looked different but it used to sleep on the couch in exactly that position hoping one of us (usually me) would come along and wake it up by rubbing its' belly. It would then start purring and I swear I could detect a smile on it's face.
