Big Blue Birthday

Listening to the UK basketball game the other night I heard the Cats had a top prospect at the game on a recruiting visit.  I wonder who it was?

HAPPY BIRTHDAY JEREMY

Happy Birthday Jim

One of Mom and Dad’s top six favorite son-in-laws is having a birthday today.  I know Jim is in the top six because Dad called Randy ‘Old Number Seven’ the whole time we were in Florida.   As bad as the fishing was this trip, I am sure Jim ranks above Randy right now.

HAPPY BIRTHDAY JIM !

Here We Go Again

Well, here we go again.  Dad and I are on our way to Florida. 

Can you get snow shoes for a mule?  We may need them to get out of Kentucky.


Dang,  I got the back seat again?

No More Birthdays, Again

Last year Jennie insisted she wasn’t going to celebrate any more birthdays.  Well, darned if another one hasn’t rolled around again anyway.

I guess we should follow her directions, so…

• Don’t be calling to wish her a Happy Birthday.  (I’ll probably be taking a nap and you’ll just wake me up.)
  
  
• Don’t be sending her any cute, singing, animated, email birthday wishes.  (They tear my anti-virus program up.)
  
  
• Don’t be leaving her birthday greetings on Facebook. (She never looks at it anyway.)

I guess presents would be OK.  And if anyone wants to drop off a birthday cake, I’ll take real good care of it till Jennie gets home from work.

I guess it would be alright to wish her a Happy Birthday here on the StalkerClan if you want.  She knows all of us can’t follow directions very well anyway.

HAPPY BIRTHDAY JENNIE !

JEFFERY HEN - The Neighborhood Is Waiting

( Hey, maybe this Hen Tale will remind Jennie of long, long ago when she was a Young Chick. )

While all of the hens in the neighborhood were standing around the henhouse of Cluck and Jenny Hen, the elder hen finally showed up.  She said, "Let me see if I can be of any help!" All of hens let her though the crowd so she can look into the doorway where Cluck and Bran was staying, keeping anybody from entering.

"Can I be of any help!" called the elder hen.

Cluck decided to let her inside the house, but he didn't want anybody else to enter. "What's the matter?” she asked. All three of them looked at each other and couldn’t decide what to say or do. "Is something wrong?"

Jenny Hen said, "I don't want anybody to know this."

"What?" asked the elder hen. "Did you break your egg?"

Jenny Hen said, "No."

Cluck said, "If you promise not to tell. Bran go outside." Bran went outside as he was told. The crowd asked him what was going on inside the henhouse. Bran said, "I don't know, they won't let me know."

The elder hen said, "I promise I won't tell."

Cluck stayed at the doorway to make sure nothing was heard. "Come up to the nest," said Jenny Hen. The elder hen flew up to the nest and Jenny Hen said, "Shhh, be very quiet I don't won't anybody to know this." The elder hen put her wing to her mouth and Jenny Hen exposed the egg.

The elder hen was in a big surprise, she didn't know what to think. In a low voice she said, "I never seen a brown egg before."

Jenny Hen said, "Neither have we."

The elder hen said, "I don't know what to tell you to do, but in the meantime just take care of it just the same as if it was a white egg.  I'll be back in a few days to see if it is all right, and see if I can hear a heartbeat inside of it.  When did you laid it?”

Jenny Hen said, "Two days ago."

Cluck said, "You promise not to tell."

The elder hen said, "Don't worry, I’ll just tell them you laid your egg."

When the elder hen exited the henhouse the hens started crowding around her, wanting to know about what was going on in the henhouse.

The elder hen said, "Jenny Hen had laid her egg, but its to the best if all would just leave her alone for the time being. I will be back in a few days to check to make sure it is all right."

Jeffery Hen said, "Well, girls lets go home." Jeffery Hen, Panda and Crystal Fawn left to go home. Panda and Crystal Fawn wanted to see the egg. Jeffery Hen said, "I'm sorry girls, but maybe it to the best."

The next morning the roosters brings in the morning grain. Cluck and Bran always comes out of the henhouse and eat. They take some inside of the henhouse for Jenny Hen to eat.

Everybody was waiting.
