The more traditional method of stalking would have you on the other side of the glass.

Stephen Cummings said...

Well, I'm a non-conformist. Besides, stalking from the inside of the car? Sounds like SSOP to me.

MR ducks
MR not ducks
O S M R. C M P N.

Childhood nonsense that never seems to wash out of my mind.

Dan said...

SSOP: Stalker Standard Operating Procedure?

Pat: I don't get that at all.

Pat said...

say it phonetically...

Emm arr ducks (them are ducks)
Emm arr not ducks (them are not ducks)
Ohh ess emm arr (oh yes them are)
See emm pee enn (see them peeing)

From the same line of thinking that brings you I.P Freely.

Seems like someone is text messaging too much. I will not text anyone ever, so please don't ever try to text me. A stern message to any text messaging goofballs.

Pat said...

This comes from when we were in elementary school retard, long before the advent of text messaging. I don't text message either, but if I did it would definitely be this.

I may now fill your phone with ridiculous text messages.

dan: yes to the SSOP code.

Texting is a very odd cultural phoneomenon. I feel it allows people the sensation of being constantly connected, having a converstation that a: would otherwise take 10 seconds to complete, or b: never have at all. I'm one for the ongoing evolution of English, but I hear now threats that some students are insisting that they be allowed to compose on paper the same styles they text.

I say, F.T.S.

you are evil

those poor creatures do not know of this perversion

exploited

their innocence ripped

leaving them out in the rain while you are dry with your dry technology

they are trying to retain their precious oils...yet they are washing away with the rain

you could have run out to catch the oil in a pan and to replace it on a dry day, or better yet have let them in, offered them coffee - I know you got mugs - "the boy got mugs mama! I know he does!!"

without their oil they are gonna rust

looks like you don't care though

"let them rust!" better to rust like a car in dump than to rot like a body in a grave

I challenge you Steve Cummings that within the next five postings to your Project 365 - you SHOW me how you have made up to these creatures - show me - you have five photos to do this

and the rest of you - be ready for like challenges, if you do not satisfy my challenges - I will never look at one of your Project 365 photos ever again

you guys have had it too easy - posting what you would like and when, well there are some NEW rules

Steve - please show me via Project 365 how you have made up to these ducks within your next five pictures

Really, I don't think these ducks give a damn.

These ducks chose to hang out by my place as I was coming home. Many shelters line the river, not far from here. I'm hardly stalking these ducks; I almost tripped over them on the way in. If these ducks could talk, they'd say, "Good day, kind sir."

Frankly, Coralville and Iowa City pamper ducks. There are Duck Crossing signs all over. To hurt a duck here would not go unnoticed. Next week will be the annual Riverfest weekend, and ducks such as these will get more care and attention than any duck or other mammal deserves.

show me visually

my eyes tire with your text

Stephen Cummings said...

Okay, but you are the one who did all that writing.

Mighty Tom said...

you forced me through all your postings of pictures
