Stop! Look! Listen! thought i heard a kitten! just what i need , one more mouth to feed! i opened the door and sure nuff, a little ball of fluff! my heart was pounding. this poor little thing I swooped him up thinking ,should i keep him? But ,what would my other 2 beloved pets do ? seeing another kitty who may be looking to eat all their food? oh yes! cats knows what's theirs.. and no here would share their goods So decided to take the poor little kitten to the Animal shelter and gladly they took the cute little kitten and said they are sure he will find a sweet little home to fit him! when i came home my cats were waiting at the door for me to enter empty handed !! And so glad they were to see i came back home empty handed so no need to groan and all they did was Purr and purr all around our home.. so now im here on my computer came there to let ya'll know Im Last at Last.. So til we meet again..I Win!!

There was a lady from Tennessee who didn't know what to do. When a baby kitten appeared at her door, she couldn't say "Go! Shoo!" She stole some morsels from her other cats to feed the little kitten Thinking that the old cats would be upset... smitten!
Instead of ostracizing the new addition to their domain... their lair They accepted the kitten as one of their own, their food willing to share. Now, I'm not a fan of kittens or cats but please don't chastise me for that. I just never could develop an attachment to any kind of cat.
One of our daughters has a cat in the house and three more in her goat barn. A granddaughter has a cat that loves to play with a ball of yarn. When I visit either one, the cats seem to enjoy curling up in my lap to sleep. I've even threatened each of the girls I will take their cat home with me to keep!
Now, the thing I cannot understand about the difference between animals and humankind Is it seems animals will nurture and be kind to new "friend" their owners find. We humans can be neglectful in welcoming new neighbors to our street. And, we sometimes can be 'offish' to new people by chance that we meet.
Growing up we knew our neighbors and shared food, labor, and a little gossip too! The spinster a mile up the road knew your likes and dislikes... every little thing about you!! We seem to have lost the ability to reach out to people that might be in distress. Yes, it might appear that cats are better neighbors than humans... a fact I must confess.
The world would be a better place if were more apt to open our door to kitten once in a while And as we had the chance to meet new folks, regardless of their background, do it with a smile. Let's take a lesson from the Tennessee lady who owns a heart of gold Just as long as the last to post... ALWAYS will be 2old!!!!!

Ah too old. .loved the post you told. and yes , cats love to catnap everyday and I just recently heard that cats who are famous for one very unusual thing for taking naps 15 hours of the day!!! Our cats do catnap alot. but never took count ! to late to do that today but maybe tomorrow unless we go somewhere that day, but will let you know when ever i get the chance to do so.. Today is very hot and humid and we do have a breeze but it must be coming from Hell cuz it feels like that alot!!! inside today, i pass my time ,giving away baby blankets just yesterday i was in the grocery store and happen to look behind me, and what do i see ? a young lady about to have a baby any day from what i could see! i told her i crochet and just happen to have a baby blanket that i was waiting to give away, a boy or a girl ?, i asked and said ,its a boy i pushed my cart out of line and ran to our car and grabbed the Baby Boy bag came back and offered her the gift ! she thanked me a gave me a hug and said God Bless thats all i wanted to hear ..,, just to do this out of the good in my heart that the good Lord gave me ! And it keeps my hands busy most days and give me something good to do.. so for now my next goal is to be The Last One To Post!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! then to leave and proceed with my yummy Pot Roast!!!

Think I'll go hunting, but there's nothing I'd like to shoot. Maybe I'll go chasing the ladies... not something for this worthless old coot! Let's all go fishing, I'll bring the rod and the reel Since I don't eat fish, that really has no appeal.
Might take a trip to see Weezer, but I'd get lost along the way. Why don't I sign up for a debate club... even though I'd not know what to say. Applying for a spot on Wheel of Fortune even though I'd not know what letter to call. Or... I'll go skydiving but forget to pull the ripcord and to the Earth I would fall.
Tomorrow I'll wake early and go running for a mile or two Even though I can't run fast enough to even catch a case of the flu!!! Why don't you join me for a barbeque... Wait! I don't even have a grill. How about sharing some of my moonshine... I forgot I don't have a still!
I complain to myself so much I don't like me anymore. Went out to get the mail, today, and my wife locked the darn door! I'd take her out to dinner if we weren't so dadgum poor. Don't even have carpet to sleep on for our home has a dirt floor.
You probably think I'm being negative, not a positive thing to say. You probably want to tell me to quit whining and, really, that's okay. Everything will get better and you will find me smiling and laughing very fast When 2old is crowned the victor for being the first, here, to post last!!!

I have a story to tell, and i can only hope That i phrased it well,
As i was walking along the road i came across a 5 toed toad. So i asked the toad..
Would you mind if i be so bold to ask you why you have five toes? and he gave me a loud Croak after i spoke!
Then he began to speak. How many toes and fingers do humans have? I laughed and said we also have five of each !
Can you hop using your toes? croaked the toad. of course i can and i too can swim like you, i really can! and maybe even more ten fold!
The only difference now that i can see, is that your called a Human an i'm called a Toad!!!!
well there, im trying my best to to rhyme in time.. its the best i can do..but do not expect me to do this again, i only did it on a silly whim..
but one thing i know that i can do well is to give out a very loud yell!! IM THE LAST ONE HERE TO POST A POST
Weezer is now off to play some games to prove she can play the rest of this very hot and beautiful day! LAST!!

She'll be comin' 'round the mountain and I wanna meet her. Will be waiting and watching... that's for sure. Staring out the window, waitin' for that gal to appear When I realize... Heck! We ain't got no mountains here!!!
So, how can I meet her when she comes around the mountainside When to even see a mountain involves at least a day's long ride. Will she be on foot when she arrives? Or, in a car or a plane? My worrying about missing the opportunity to meet her is driving me insane!
Don't know if I'll recognize her as I've never seen her face. If I mistake her for someone else, it will be such a disgrace. Wait! She's gonna be ridin' six white horses when she comes round that hill. To see a single lady riding six horse at one time could be quite a thrill!
Does she hold the reins to all six horses while riding on the middle one? If there are six horses there is no "middle" one... son of a gun! I just can't figure out how she can ride all six unless it's like a relay race Where she rides one until it's tired and can't keep up a proper pace.
Now we sang about this lady comin' 'round the mountain when I was in grammar school. That woulda been in the early 50's when I wasn't as tall as an old bar stool. If she was old enough to be ridin' six horses back then, what can I say Except that she must have gotten lost along the way!
Add about 60 some years to however old she was back in those old days One would worry that, at this old age, she could be in a dementia type haze! My visions of seeing this beautiful young lady comin' round the mountain are beginning to wane. In fact, with arthritis and old joints, riding those six horses all this time... she's in real pain!!
So, I guess I'll leave our front room window and return to my recliner chair. Ain't no sense in wasting my time staying by the window to just stare. All the anticipation I had is lost... my dreams shattered like broken glass. But you do realize 2old will always be last to post so don't you dare give me any sass!!!!

Holy, Schmolly! And, I was gettin' lazy Sittin' in my recliner, feelin' a little hazy. Beginning to think I'd better check my deodorant strength 'Cause nobody wanted to rhyme, anymore, at length!
Was it my halitosis or my ungroomed hair? Was it that, for my rhymes, nobody any longer did care? Confidence was lost! Nobody liked me enough to post a rhyme! Was I going to win the last-to-post-first by default this time?
But, alas! The Queen of Tennessee is back and I'm smiling ear to ear! She has the countenance to begin posting, showing no fear! Royalty, I say!!! She deserves to be wearing the jeweled crown. Her persistence to beat the software of TRF should bring her renown!
Should I be elated that the Weezer is back and in the game? Or, should I be dejected because her winning might compromise my fame? Now I have to be ready to respond to her claims of being last every day. Or, the fame and fortune of 2old will be gone as I lose this rhyming foray!
Hopefully, she can see no fear in my eyes or in the rhymes I entertain. Surely, she can't see my knees knocking and my eyes welled up in pain. Here, I thought the win was MINE! Yes, I thought it would be smooth sailing from now on. All of a sudden, my confidence... perhaps over-confidence... is all but gone!
With all my might, I must struggle to regain the lead. To win this contest is not a 'want'... it's a NEED!!! To lose would forever leave my self-confidence broken and shattered! But, today, it's 2old who is posting last and that's all that really mattered!

Remember the song, "Run around Sue". If your name is Sue, was that you? If your name was Sue, were you part of the Johnny Cash song? Do I seem to be picking on Sue and is that awfully wrong?
It's the 44th anniversary of when Elvis passed away. His songs were loved and, some of them, had lots to say. Maybe not "You Ain't Nothin' But a Hound Dog" or "Blue Suede Shoes". We'd play them loud on our AM radios as down Main Street we would cruise.
Janis Joplin would belt out songs like "Me and Bobby McGee" Such an untimely death with so much talent left to see. No more "California Dreamin'" for Mama Cass Eliot, hit tune after hit tune. She was another one who left us entirely too soon.
Loved the Country songs of Hank, Merle, Johnny, and Willie so much. Some days, though, it was the Stones, Animals, Beatles and such. Can't even find a radio station that plays the oldies around here. "Oldies", now, are from the 80's and our generation is forgotten, I fear.
When I win the prize for being first to post last on "Forum Games" I will use the money to bring back the songs of all those old names! Rock and roll and "true" Country will be listened to by all, no matter the age. So, just give it up! 2old will be last to post when this year turns it's last and final page.

ahhhh 20ld , love to hear the songs of old we too would drive down main street in convertibles of old.. Radio blasting loud and strong as we all would sing along..
them were the good old days Miss the good old folks , some who have passed away frinds all moved on and live far and wide.
our little town was always alive at night going to the movies then all gathering at our favorite ice creams shop.
Saddle shoes and Poodle skirts guys wearing Levi jeans and fancy shirts was fun to go to movie Theater on Saturdy nights
Laughing loudly and people saying shhhhhhh! made us all laugh so hard our stomachs were sore! ahh the good old days. always bring fun memories to this very day!!
well id love to reminiscence ,makes me happy but i have not much time, so i need to make this snappy im the last to post .. lets see how long this will last the most, at least for right now, I'm the last to post!!

Sometimes my mind wanders way, way too much Thinking just plain fruitless and nutty thoughts and such. What drives these thoughts? What is wrong with me? What is the mind doing today? Well, lets see.
As I play golf, I set the ball on a "tee". Were golf tees named after the famous "Mister T"? He was the actor who wore necklaces of pure gold Muscular and brash and so very bold.
In the 1800's they were called "pegs" instead of "tees". Where did the name "pegs" come from, tell me please. Maybe after Peggy Lipton of Mod Squad fame Or Peggy Lennon who, through Lawrence Welk, we knew her name.
I've worn jeans since I was a young child growing up on the farm. Those denim jeans protected my body from all kinds of harm. Were the "jeans" named after Jean Stapleton, Archie Bunker's dear wife? Or, maybe named after Jean Harlow who at age 26 lost her life.
Speaking of farms, I remember well those "cow patties" laying where they fell. Were those "patties" named after Patty Hearst or, even , Patty LaBelle? What about those ice cream sundaes so tasty and so cold? Maybe named after Bill Sunday an evangelist of old?
The Rock Island railroad ran across the south side of our farm. Hobos would jump from the train and knock on our door, never meaning any harm. My mother or my grandmother would fix them a sandwich and send them on their way. Some would show appreciation while others would leave with never a 'Thank you' to say.
Back then, the hobos were referred to by many as a "bum" or a "tramp" I swear. Could the name "tramp" have come from "Lady and the Tramp" a movie about a dog's love affair? Had a classmate in high school name Shari, I dated once or twice Maybe the "sherry" that we cook with... or drink... was named after her. What's your advice?
Now, you are probably suggesting my chronology is way off with an object and a name. My point is that this English language could drive an intelligent person nearly insane. How does someone from another culture ever learn to speak our language as conflicted as our words can be. One word can have many meanings and how do we know which meaning is correct, don't you see?
We have words that are spelled differently but pronounced just the same. We have words that are spelled the same with one an object and one a name. So, as you read my post and try to figure out the things my mind decides to say Just remember 2old has posted last, again, and at year's end will win on New Year's Eve Day!!!!

"Go away from my window, leave at your own chosen speed. I'm not the one you want, babe. I'm not the one you need." You've been peeking through my blinds for over an hour, dear. The sirens from the police, my friend, soon you are bound to hear.
The wig you're wearing is on backwards! Or, your bangs are extremely long. Your dress doesn't even fit right. In fact it looks like a sarong! Lipstick missed those lips, dear. It's closer to your nose. And, I can see your hairy legs as the stubble sticks out through your hose!
Your GPS must have led you to the wrong address, 'cause you don't belong here. I hate to burst your bubble, but I'm sitting here laughing instead of shaking in fear! Are those old Army combat boots on your noticeably pigeon toed feet? Instead of the laces dragging behind you, at least tie them up nice and neat!
Are you that blind you actually need those binoculars to look through my window? Do you realize you will spend time in a straightjacket where you are bound to go?? What's that you are writing on the piece of carboard in your hand? Turn it towards me, please, so I can see if your gibberish I understand.
You want to come in my house to bake bread and cook the evening meal? In your backpack you have all the trimmings and a pound of fresh cut veal? I'll tell you right now, babe, I would bet your "veal" is a pound of flesh from a human. And, if I let you in my front door, dear, part of me would be in the copper-bottomed pan!
Wait! How'd you get through that window? How'd you get in to my living room? What are you? Some kind of a wicked witch or a purveyor of my doom? My word! You smell right down awful! I've never smelled anything quite as pungent. If you are real and not imaginary, this is beginning to be a very cruel stunt!
Get away! Don't come any closer! Your breath smell like you've been eating Purina Pro Plan! You're ugly! You stink! I don't know if you are a witchy woman or a devilish man! Get away! Get that tongue back in your mouth! Would you quit liking my face! Woops! It's the dog waking me from a nightmarish dream so I am last to post... not to lose in disgrace!

Oh im laughing so hard. my belly hurts! or maybe its that im wearing my belt to tight i maybe need to adjust it ,so its fits just right !!
another hot day with a bunch of rain on its way this has been the hottest summer ever either that or the good Lord upstairs is trying to adjust the weather!!
i have a home made bird bath outside sitting on top of a post. just an old soup bowl really, but the birds still come around
sometimes its in the sun so i have been filling milk cartons with water then into the freeze it goes after frozens solid i give it a hot bath to release
the frozen ice and slip it into the soup bowl , its a joy to watch the birds come and go, They love to flutter their wings with the cold water and take their drinks..
im waiting for September to be here this year cuz this has been the hottest since we have moved here! and not only that, on top of all this heat,
last month i was pulling some weeds , forgetting to wear my gloves and again im hammered with Poison Ivy AGAIN! on my face and arms, So red i almost glow!
guess its a good reason to wear my mask cuz then it doesnt show! one of these years i guess i will learn to be careful when i i pull weeds without gloves. as i know so well the outcome is woe!!
anywho, i stopped by to say , in case ya'll forgot ! the only good thing is ,im the LAST TO POST.. and i will be happy to invited ya'll to Weezers famous Pig Roast!!
after i am crowned the Very Last To Post!!
