yes they do only purr when they are happy,

you have to remeber that the little darlings dont just purr when being cuddled or sitting in your lap, they may be happy whilst savaging small furry rodents, chucking up on your nice maple floor or sitting on the bird table with a peanut on their nose and their mouths wide open

Oooh, a reference from Rush. Now I am impressed!

Between discussions of kissing large (and small) quadrupeds, hiding the bodies, and just general machismo (it practically reeks of testosterone in here), I can only come to one conclusion. As Sam the Eagle put it best, "You are all weirdos!"

Like I have room to talk.

Thankyou for the most genereous compliment though you did forget to mention the Gryphin Positon.

Not so much an oversight, Gryphin, than I simply couldn't wrap my mind around both the Gryphin position and moose-kissing.... (Acutally, I envision the Gryphin position as a cross between the Lotus position and 'praying at the altar of the Porcelain Goddess'....)

“wheels within wheels, ect and so forth.”

For some reason, my memory is suggesting that Rush may have stolen that from someone else. Blake seems to ring a bell. I will have a look when I get home. Any English majors, as opposed to English lawyers, out there to help?

As for the reek of testosterone, I must get a bit off topic. This thread is normally quite disciplined about staying on topic, but I shall digress. A couple of months ago I went to the Mr. Kenya Bodybuilding Championship. Towards the end of the night, it was getting really warm in the auditorium and you truly could smell the testosterone. The crowd was 85% men and everyone was going mad, jumping and shouting. It reminded me of seeing some of the big metal bands in the 90’s, the whole atmosphere was like a Ministry concert. As much as we try, I do not think we will quite reach that level of testosterone.

hmmmm,, Moose & Gnu Kissing along with the Gryphin Position Combination, this sounds very intriging, might have to enlarge my scientific research into thses areas...

As for being weird, I to thank you for the compliment, , the discussions on this thread are meant to enrich ones meaning of life as seen through the eyes of those who read our Posts, and besides, this is a bar & grill cantina, so any and every topic (within reason) is allowed. So if your ever blue, down, depressed, hyper active, or just want to contemplate upon the wonders of the universe, pull up a chair, grab a brewski, tweak a cats tail, kiss a Moose or Gnu, join in and and enliven your inner self, let yourself gooooo

just some ideas mac5732

Blake liked to read the Old Testament, usually following the ingestion of various substances, so I wouldn’t be shocked if he had a few extra wheels spinning in his head.

My copy of Gold has arrived. Only problem is that it has arrived in Canada. I will pick it up and be back, ready to go, around April 15.

I wouldn't be surprised if Rush 'borrowed' the line, as much as they drew from literature....

Thanks for the welcome, Mac. As long as the beer wench doesn't look like a wildebeest, I think everything will be copacetic.

Saxon: I thought that much testosterone in a room would be lethal....
