Much better!

Something like this...

So I finally dragged myself out of the Pleistocene and installed the twitter app on my iPhone this morning. The better to brown-nose people I need to sell some consulting to. God, the inane chatter that my business associates spew into the twittersphere. But anyway. Now it occurs that it is only a matter of days or hours til I accidentally brush the 'tweet' button at the bottom of this site's mobile version, and broadcast a notice to one and all about our great site here! Thanks in advance, OZ. P.S. For the record, when you click the tweet button at the bottom of this site, it auto-generates the following tweet ready to send: hey twitter followers -- i'm on boytoy! [or whatever the thread title is that you happen to be viewing] - http://www.boytoy.com/forums/index.php?/topic/23079-hey-twitter-followers-im-on-boytoy/ [the thread url]

And the news that she was the last surviving cast member but Jethro. RIP.

No, not a post by a spambot, rather a curio I found online: http://www.picturetopeople.org/easy-online-photo-editor.html Free site to upload your photo and apply any of several dozen effects. Like this... Before (photo credit Suckrates): ...And after applying the 'Impressionist painting' filter:

Or your button hook! (Ref. Sybil. Or, rather, don't.)

Me too!

Fascinating! Found this note on Geer (and other Waltons cast members) from the odd & interesting web site Findadeath: http://www.findadeath.com/Deceased/w/waltons/will_geer_and_ellen_corby_and_th.htm And one more: http://www.thefreelibrary.com/Happily+ever+after%3F%3B+Gay+grandpa,+alcohol+abuse+and+a+Playboy...-a060362418

P.S. Memory is misty but it may be that very Bugs episode wherein at one point the tenor's wide-open mouth and pendulant uvula fill the entire screen.

Hijacks are a girl's best friend!

I was about to say: Or seven- or eight-play?

LMAO Similarly...

Never heard of foreplay?

I'll be waiting!

Sorry to use such language right before dinner

Swept away!

Speaking of whom! (I can never read 'uvula' without thinking the typesetter messed up 'vulva' again. )

So Times Square with its hifalutin ball drop has nothing on us down here below the Manson-Nixon line. Clay's Corner in little old Brasstown, NC... ...has a venerable history of seeing in the new year with a live Possum Drop. The critter is not simply dangled by the neck on a rope, much less tossed unceremoniously from a rooftop, as anyone familiar with this particular marsupial might think more or less naturally in order. Instead, it's housed in a ceremonial box, as shown above, which is gently lowered to the ground come midnight. Animal cruelty? PETA thinks so, and went to court to get the animal back its rights. The NC General Assembly, ever vigilant, responded by carving out an exception to the state's animal protection laws that specifically exempted opossums, in this specific county, at this specific time of year. PETA, predictably, raised a ruckus again, so this year Clay said he would use either a stuffed possum, or possibly a road-kill victim if one turned up. He did observe that, far from being cruelty, the short time the possum spends in the box is actually the opposite -- being likely the only time in its life that it's safe from being run over by a car. Anyway, we Tar Heels anxiously await news and photos of what went down, as it were, at Clay's last night. Meanwhile, coverage of past New Year's Eve goings-on at the fabled joint... Brasstown Brigade readys themselves on the hill overlookin Clay's Corner for the blessing At first we thought it was Rickie Bobbie, but last years Queen brought in the Possum and took a few minutes to strut her stuff Clay adds to the occasion with his infamous jokes Unfortunately, former contestant Miss Donkey Farm passed on this year, her final request was to lye in state at the Possum drop. Once she heard the music, it was a REAL revival No, she's not levitating boys, those are happy feet! The Possumtron show 12 minutes to go! "The Reigning Queen 'Little Miss Brasstown' readies herself before the pageant" She went on to be a Judge in 2006 & 2007 "Close to Midnight" Clay gazes at the big screen and the throngs of people who came to ring in 2005 at Clay's Corner Never say we don't know how to throw a good time!
