I found a great cat dish!

How the heck did they get the cat to stay there through the decoration? Amazing!

Cat likely got in the bowl on it's own to take a nap, rude awakening to being decorated!

He was okay till the stock was added.....

I had a kitten that would sleep in the food bowl.
He used my underwear for a hammock while on the toilet.
I simply couldn't get rid of the thing he was with me every where I went.

Worth,

I can't unsee this...

Origin unknown, a French bakery I think.

@loulac "If I lie really still, someone's bound to smother me in garlic butter"

A person of color sent this to me.

An 80 year old man goes in for a check-up and the doctor, amazed at what good shape the guy was in, asked, "To what do you attribute your good health?".

The patient: "I'm a biker and that's why I'm in such good shape. I'm up well before daylight on Sundays and out sliding around corners, shootin' sand washes and riding up and down the steepest, wildest mountains I can find at the crack of dawn."

The doctor: "Well, I'm sure that helps, but there's got to be more to it. How old was your dad when he died?"

The patient: "Who said my dad's dead?"

The doctor: "You mean you're 80 years old and your dad's still alive? How old is he?"

The patient: "He's 99 years old and, in fact, he went riding with me this Sunday, and that's why he's still alive... he's a biker too”

The doctor: "Well, that's great, but I'm sure there's more to it. How about your dad's dad, how old was he when he died?

The patient: "Who said my grandpa's dead?"

The doctor: "You mean you're 80 years old and your grandfather's still living? How old is he?"

The patient: "He's 117 years old”

The doctor, getting frustrated, said: "I guess he went riding with you this Sunday too?"

The patient: "No... Grandpa couldn't go this week because he got married”

The doctor: "Got married!! Good Lord!!! Why would a 117-year-old guy want to get married?"

The patient: "Who said he WANTED to get married?"

Those would include the bone yard, consisting of old stuff that might come in handy some day for spare parts, making other things or headed to the scrap yard when enough is collected to make the trip worthwhile.

This would work better in some areas of the country than others.

Do you mean things like the rusted out washing machine from 1971, the pile of tires (you never know when you might get a flat) and the jacked up Chevelle that hasn't run in 30 years?
