    Well, there is a rooster that lives a few houses over from my house in Houston...I get to hear it everytime I go back...so that is why I clicked on the thread. Then I just thought that the pork and beans thing was funny, so I upped lizards to fingers.

    Why are you posting and why did you ask?

    yeah i would be scared of severed fingers.
    and yeah im still freaked out by lizards because of that story.
    rimbaud ill repeat that for you too. i am scared of LIZARDS because i heard that one got into a can of pork and beans. because of that story i am now scared of LIZARDS. and you know something else? im not scared of pork and beans. how bout that? isnt that weird? wow im scared of LIZARDS because of some story about a LIZARD in a can of beans. and pork was in that can of beans too. amazing. does that make me an unintelligent person? people are afraid of small places.. even though its not really rational... if youre freaked out your freaked out.
    if it doesnt make sense to you that my mind works like that so be it. in conclusion, im scared of LIZARDS because i heard that some guy somewhere found one in a can of beans. if i ever hear that someone found a severed finger in a can of beans i would be scared of severed fingers. and yet somehow through it all, the can of beans remains unscathed. i am undaunted by the can of pork and beans no matter what i hear is in it. amazing. astounding. beautiful. lovely. excellent. vonigut.
    tired, unimaginative act one continues....and youre worse off because youre still reading along...




    :(

    rimbaud,

    As you know, I look for order and routine on the BBS and <i>rimbaud</i> posting in a <i>Holden</i> animal thread was an abnormal event.

    Do you look for established posters to have predictable responses when certain topics are discussed? For other posters not to post at all on certain topics?

    I would not shoot the rooster, but would definitely b**** slap the stupid thing if it starts crowing six o'clock in the morning. ;)

    Why exactly? You poison all the birds that fly into your yard?

    LOL! :)

    And to think Samuri Jack's first post was in reference to that stupid elephant story. :confused: (poor guy). Well, at least you reeled him in. :)

    Do you have Asians as your neighbor? I don't mean anything racist by that. It's just that my aunt has a couple of chickens in her backyard and gets eggs that way(and yes, she is Asian!). Some people just like their eggs fresh from the chicken!:)

    Holden,

    I tried to find a story about a severedfinger, but my short search found nothing and I am too lazy to do any more. I have heard of at least one incident of someone finding a severed finger.

    Mango,

    Are you saying that I am predictable. Sigh...

    As far as what I look for...no, I don't look for patterns. I don't really "look" for anything.

    You must admit that Holden is not giving you the same type of responses that a debate with heypartner would render. If heypartner were to call you out in a thread, then it is possible that you would respond. Not faithfully like a Pavlovian response to a bell, but enough to be more than a random event.

    <i>Predicatable</i> only in the sense that some topics and posters will inspire you to respond and others are allowed to drift by without comment. Your relatively low post count (compared to Jeff, heypartner and DoD) indicates a certain selectiveness that they don't exhibit.

    If I was to start posting heavily in threads discussing:

    Current movies
    Current trends in music
    Religion

    that would be out of the norm for me because I seldom touch upon those topics.

    Lol, you are right...and hp is also much more fun. Mostly I was just bored and wanted to hear about the rooster. Notice I am not really concerned with "debating" with Holden.

    I know, I was just kidding about the "predictable" part. I think it would be funny if you started a "here is what is hot in pop music" thread, though.

    You've got a chicken, a hen, and a rooster. The chicken goes with the hen. Who's having sex with the rooster?

    Yeah, I used to have ducks that come fly in my backyard and swim in my pool. At first, I let them stay, as I thought it was pretty harmless. But one day when I was about to take a swim, I saw piles of ducksh*t by and in my pool, along with 2 broken eggs. From then and there, everytime those ducks came by, I'd nail them with tennis balls.

    Well then, I must really screw up your sense of order...

    There is no rhyme or reason to when or what I post about...
    I post when I have time and when the muse is upon me...

    otherwise I just stfu and laugh.......:D

    What about wasps? They have no purpose 'cept to make nests in your garage or underneath your front porch and sting you, right?

    Man, I hate wasps! I kill them every chance I get!:mad:

    BTW, I had a pet rooster once, they are good pets when you get to know them!:)

    I lived in an apartment complex 6 years ago in Columbus and a Rooster got in our back yard as well. I didn't mind it too much, I'm an early to bed early to rise kind of guy so by the time it was crowing I was long gone.
    Eventually enough people complained that one of the security guys brought in a hunting dog (labrador retreiver) and needless to say the dog ate well.

    But another funny story about the rooster is it had a habit of roosting on vehicles, so my roommate had a pic of it roosting on his car! Pretty interesting artwork! lol
