I'm ready to see the Gerbil's face on Nixon's body, doing the V-wave with his fingers.

I'm not waiting on that, kittybowtie. I ran out of patience on that. I'm waiting for him to get a good swift kick in the ass with spurs for destroying this country. And ship the Clown and his boss to Abu Ghraib without a one way ticket back home. That way we can get rid of the aweful smell of sulfur that we had to endure for 6 years.
Anyhoo, have a wonderful Thanksgiving, everyone! Signing off! Biloxi man out!!!
have a great day guys.
Happy Thanksgiving!

Hey, Kittybowtie!
Hilarious cat video. Maybe those cats can put their name in the hat to run for office. I had to laugh at the owner who asked his cat did he love him. LOL!
Anyway, family is arriving today. Got to run. Lots of food to grub on. Hope your owner feed you some Turkey cat food as a special treat today. ;-)
I wish all my friends a wonderful Thanksgiving. Now as for my dear friend Mr. Kitty who might not eat turkey I hope the fish is extra good today.
Oh I just wanted to say that Hillary's campaign did collections for Military Families so they could have a nice Thanksgiving. Ya I know everyone gives the lip service I support our troops but nothing else. Good Girl Hillary for once again stepping up to the plate and doing something, while others just talk.
Good for Hillary. There can never be enough support for the troops and their families.
I got some yummy turkey. I also got yelled at by Mama because I got too close to the open oven door when she checked on the turkey. She thought I was going to try to jump in the oven to get to the turkey and burn my paws trying. I was smart enough to get close for a good smell. I could tell the oven was HOT.
In rememberance of JFK,
