For one thing...

...the ale here is almost 2-year vintage! :D

I wonder what happened to the brewer? :rolleyes: :confused: I don't think I had the chance to meet him.

Send my regards to your "Earth Angel". :cool:

*finishes with one swig and goes and get another round*

Wished I had an Earth Angel too. :(

Kinda difficult to find a kender angel here... :rolleyes:

...as for the brew, I wish dM could try this stuff and we'd hear from his expert evaluation...

...of course, BS would always give the thumbs up. :D

Strange bar...considering there's more replies than views, there must be some serious drinking going on in here. :D

*attaches Beer Killer 2000 to the nearest beer keg, flips on the switch*

Ahhhhh. Nothing like your morning beer delivered via turbo ultra osmosis. :cool:

Hiya Eery. :) Long time no see. Glad to hear you aren't being harrassed that much at the job. With Weasel's return, however, I would be ready for anything to happen. :eek: ;)

@Mah: Top of the morning (here, anyway) to you. :D

Three is never a crowd in this place...

Hey, Cowboy! :cool: That's evening to you too. :p :D

I think the ale here is good for your gums. ;) Did the novocaine wear off?

Ale is good for everything that ails you. Wonderful stuff. :D

Ah, the old tooth. Well, turns out only a cusp was broken off; no nerve hit there, even though it hurt like the ****ens for a time. It was an old filling gone bad. No, no more novocaine...however, Nurse Scayde and her healing ministrations soothe the hurt very well. ;)

Indeed. I am a regular in her clinic. :D

Alas, I must be going. My tooth and I need to go to work. :( Today, I shall concentrate on not giving myself an uppercut to the jaw. :rolleyes:

Have a good one, O Scribe. And rejoice: the Weasel is back in town. :eek: :D

Sorry I missed you, O Purveyor of Duff. May thy day be filled with the blessed amber suds of that Most Holy of Beverages, and may the wisdom imparted by the imbibing leave thee most refreshed, and filled. :D ;)

Hi A-c :) what's up? *hug*

Hi, Ysh. :) *Hugs*

Got home today and noticed it was pretty quiet. Went to check on my birds. and sure enough, the female had passed on. Now I have a heart-broken male and no idea what to do. The vet told me to try and cheer him up.. but the fact I just found one of my two fish dead as well isn't helping. I need nice words now. :(

Aw! *hug* what kind of birds?

I can relate to the fish, we lost 3 this weekend :( two large ones from stress of a water change, and a new replacement.

Bloody hell....I swore to myself to stay away from taverns...

Well last week was the 1 year anniversary of the passing of my best friend, the c0ckatiel Ive told you guys all about. Yeah yeah...I wont go into it. You all know I still miss him.

Well it really hurt for a week...and I mean it REALLY hurt. I didnt have too many friends to turn to at the time...my life was being turned upside down again, my parents were fighting, another close friend was ignoring me, and my "posse" was getting further and further away from me. So it was a really tough time.

But I overcame it all....

I remember Jeremy (c0ckatiel) very much 1 year later, and I still look into the corner of the room where he pirched, sometimes still expecting him to be there, to rush over to my hand to greet me. Well, of course he isnt, but I still feel he is there.

Through time, all you think of is the good times, so it becomes a real time of reflection, and it makes me happy to know he had a great life, and he made my life brighter. I thank God I found him in the pet store. He was always full of life and excitement. And I know I made his life happy. I know he was happy more often then not, and he had things to look forward to...things he could be happy about. So think of that.

I hope Ive helped.

Well, they were just parakeets, but I'm quite attached to both of them.

He keeps on calling out for her, and being the sentimental sap I am, it just breaks my heart. :( :)

I have lost.. SO many fish from water changes. It's just the worst, isn't it?

I buried the bird in the backyard. Kids wanted to bury the fish, too. I had to slip by them to flush it. Now I feel so guilty... :o

@A-c, we are lucky that in all of this time, they are the first two to be lost at a water change. It is a particularly stressful time for fish so we always take care to treat the new water. That said, these two died before going back in the tank. Ironically two of the same breed, the only two we had. They are really fast fish, and I think it was the stress of actually being caught rather than the water change. The other fish are HUGE (ask Georgi or Sleepy) our net wasn't big enough for those, but they are tame enough to be picked out by hand if you tickle their belly in the right place ;)

Those that died...well my daughter was heartbroken (she only knew of one of them dying before I ushered her to bed) Of course the kids think they are buried in the back garden. I flatly refuse to flush them - hubby does that :( ;)

That is really sad about your male bird though :( *hug*

<edit> does he have a mirror?
