DesertRat -> !!!!!Get Ready for OTIS & DAISY DAY!!!!! (7/24/2006 2:19:10 PM)
|
Sorry for the short notice. This coming Thursday, July 27th will be the fourth annual, worldwide celebration of what was formerly known as Daisy Day. Yes, it was four years ago that a sick and scared little kitten appeared in the alley behind my house. She was dehydrated, undernourished, was infested with ear mites, and had a very nasty upper respiratory infection...couldn't go 30 seconds without bad sneezes and productive coughs. Well, now she's all healthy and has turned out to be a perfect addition to my little family. I was there to snag her due to a series of fortuitous events, some of which were not so great. Just goes to illustrate the chaotic nature of the universe we live in and how unfit we are to judge the goodness or badness of events sometimes. That said, meeting up with little Daisy could never be seen as anything but purely good.
The holiday and concomitant worldwide celebration (except for North Korea, cuz their leader is an asshole) has been renamed OTIS & DAISY DAY to recognize the very real contributions made by Otis the cat for the past 13 years and to recognize the altruism he showed on the day Daisy needed help.
So...Laissez les bontemps roullez!!!!!!
Gauge is in charge of refreshments and decorations, so you can leave your suggestions here and he'll pick 'em up.
Exercise caution when blowing off fireworks and avoid discharging firearms within the limits of incorporated cities and towns. Drink responsibly, please.
party down,
Bob
ps: I used to attach a picture of the little darling to these announcements, but that's no longer possible. There are some photos on my profile, though. Daisy is the little black one; Otis is the humungous...er...not black one.
