I’ve unsubscribed a number of times when it looked like it would die out like the squirrels. Then it would show up on the main page and I’d get sucked back in again.😃 I’m not going to unsubscribe again.

Wait until it hits a 1000 posts and he has to start a sequel thread “At War with the squirrels II.”

I guess I can’t totally give the computer up for Lent, I feel an obligation to keep suckering people. :whistle:
Maybe “Squirrel Wars…The Rodents strike back” 🍿

Cast Away was one of my favorites, a good quote about a great movie. IMHO, Wilson was a very well rounded character and I hated to see him go 😦

Speaking of Wilson… I don’t know if you realized, because I didn’t catch it back when I first saw the film, but when I saw it again recently I noticed that when ol’ Chuck was exploring his horizons in that last scene by returning the mysterious unopened package to the artist’s ranch, he had a new volleyball on the seat of his old SUV. I guess he still had a residual volleyball thing goin’ on. :eek:

No, I didn’t notice. Do you suppose it was another Wilson or could it have been Spalding :rolleyes:
 
Nope. It was another Wilson in the same box-frame packaging as the one he unwrapped on the island. He’s brand (friend) loyal.
 
This is way God created chocolate and vanilla. I wasn’t crazy about the movie Castaway. He was on that island and hour too long. As a dentist though, I admit I groaned when he knocked out his tooth with an ice skate.
 
You must be like my wife. She watches movies solely to be entertained. She didn’t like it either. Nor did she like Groundhog Day. Both are a couple of films that explore the psychological ramifications of solitary confinement and the repetitive aspect of life, respectively.

I prefer a good mix according to my mood. (But I’m never in the mood for anything involving clowns or mimes) So which one am I, chocolate or vanilla?

Actually I like movies with psychological twists. I may need to watch it again. When I saw it I was under way too much stress. I was in dental school and taking care of my semi-invalid Mother.

BTW: Did you know that you can still buy a volleyball with the hand print of Wilson on it?

I’m kind of a Star Wars or Indian Jones fan or anything educational by Dell or Marvel 👍
 
Lent is here and I wondered what I could give up (or at least cut back on)?? Then a message from above :newidea:

Yes, Lent is an excellent time to practice Christian charity by diligently cutting back on the sqwerl population. Every cutback you put into effect now means that another nestful of would-be squerl babies won’t starve to death in the nest after Easter when their mommie and daddie get popped.

So load up on the ammo and make it your lenten duty to eliminate as many would-be breeders as possible. Or open a sqwerl spay/neuter clinic. Your choice.

Good point Nan, I may have to re think my Lenten sacrifice. I’,m taking care of my kids cat and mentioned the neuter clinic and he gave me quite a scowling look. You see, he has some experience in that area. I got the impression from his look that he would consider the skwerl better dear then missing important parts so I guess I’ll make a trip to Walmart for skwerl shot. I felt myself getting soft on the critters, thanks for the wake up call.
 
We even have some black and blond sqwerls as well. They were always grey until a few years ago and then the color mutations began to appear. But they are getting bigger and bigger. :eek:

If rabbit is any indication…then I would say that sqwerl is white meat. 😛
 
I hope it’s ok to jump on here. I just spent the last two days reading all the posts. I haven’t laughed so hard in a long long time. I just can’t believe it took me so long to discover this!
 
Something makes me wonder why a mod hasn’t moved this out of the Moral Theology forum yet.
