Citizen Dog by Mark O'Hare for January 26, 2013

Wow, give the guy a beer, he’s getting way too tense.

Keep it up buster and you’ll be the proverbial killed curious cat. Will that satisfy you?

I didn’t know that cats are curious……..

…nor did I know it was a disorder that could kill them!

Major computer problems.Ran a repair program, and it caused bigger problems.I tried to fix it by installing windows 8.Still not fixed.If i can get someone to sit with mom today, I’m going to staples or wally world.…or both…

it was indeed a sad day on Mars when the only kitty on Mars was killed by Curiosity:

Good morning, CDers!!

4° above zero this morning in WMass at 8 a.m.

ATTN: all frozen northerners!

I would find it mighty curious if I saw a cat doing science experiments in my local coffee shop. My community has more coffee shops per capita, then any other community in WA state. And that is saying something.

Good morning to the curious Citizens of Dog.

…for the moment, I.M.…for the moment.(knock on wood, formica, glass — anything that works! I’m always aware that it’s when everything is working perfectly that the computer will do a 180 and crash! Not knowing exactly when it’s going to happen creates a lot of suspense. lol)

Curiosity killed the cat, but satisfaction brought it back.

Good Morning Grog, Dry & all CDers out there.

Good morning Fellow Baby, (where is he?), cleo and sugie!

Happy Saturday to happy, Stel, nighthawks, icky, win, and chefwen!

Chill out Cuddles! Don’t get too excited, it’s not good for you!

Thanks Stel! I paid full price for my ruby slippers! Now you have them at 50% off! Geez!

Heavy fog in the area prevented my from commenting on my computer this morning. It appears satellite receivers don’t like fog either. I also forgot to take my iPad to the service center this morning. I could have killed that hou and a half by reading my strips. Oh well.

WHY AM I SO CURIOUS???!?!!? AAARGGHHH!!!

Well, I think I fixed my computer problem.The windows update seems to have stuck.And I think part of my problem was my mouse.Bat thing, I lost my spell check.I am going to go look for an app for that…

um…Can anyone see my posts?Do I still have a problem?

Well, the fog has cleared up and it’s actually turned out to be quite the nice afternoon. So nice, in fact, that our version of Popsicle Pete is going around the neighborhood.

I think I need to go out and soak up some rays & drink a little wine and eat a little cheese. Woof, Woof!

happy you’re still here but that picture isn’t.

Stel, thank you. Customer satisfaction, you know! It’s most important!

Fellow Baby, arf, arf, arf! How about sharing some of that stuff?

Sure, Fellow Baby. There’s enough wine & cheese for everyone. However, the warmth of the sun is something you’ll need your ruby sneakers for.

Good Afternoon CDers!Curious cats want to know why.

happy, what’s with all the420420420420420420 last night?

Everyone click their heels. We’re going to Grogs for wine and cheese. Arf! Arf!

Everyone’s welcome. cleo, maybe if you could also bring some Bookers for Fellow Baby, it would be much appreciated.

@ Shika

Hey! How are you? I was just going to look for a “good night” picture. Any suggestions?

How about cats peeking out from a blanket?

Thank you for asking StelBel. I’m fine, apart from being hard of hearing from my cold. I hope that clears up soon.

Hey there kids, Happy Saturday to you all. Looks like spring weather is on the way in a few days and maybe some rain. We still really need it.

Good night, everybody!!

….for Shika ! …..hope you start feeling better!

@ Jkiss

We’ve got a week-end special on the Tardis. Interested?

He may be fictional, Shika, but he’s my favorite fictional character – well next to Grog.

At least I know that if Snoopy’s not around, Curiosity’s got Woodstock’s back. You know how sneaky and devious cats can be.

And I like birds.

Make that “black” cats….

happy, your problem came from a bad wireless mouse? Oh dear. Where is a cat when you need one? :-0

I’ve got a stuffed Woodstock keeping me company when I watch my movies/TV shows, Shika. He’s really kid of cute. He was a Christmas present.

That sounds like fun Grog. Someone once gave me a pair of Tweety earrings, but I lost one. They were so cute. Woodstock is adorable.

I have a basket of stuffed animals in my living room. They cheer me up.

Are you watching a movie tonight Grog? Or listening to music?

Herman’s Hermits, at the moment, Shika. I was watching Rockford Files earlier.

But if they brought back those old shows Grog, and I had more time, I’d watch them rather than what is on T.V. now.

That’s why I’ve got a classic television library, shika. I can’t get enough of The Avengers, Mary Tyler Moore, Bob Newhart, Night Court, X-Files, Star Trek, Twilight Zone and a long list of other shows.

I had bin having some problems with my computer.Lockups, dropped pages, slooow running. Things like that.I decided to use a new clean up and repair program. It made things worse. It deleted files that should not have bin deleted.It seems that the mouse also decided at that time to go bad.Every time I clicked on a box to type something it started doing that 204204204 thing. It would also scroll be to the bottom of a page, and I could not make it go up.I managed to get into my mailbox tho.Microsoft e-mailed me an offer to upgrade me to Windows * for $39.00. If I took it in to a shop it would have cost me more than that, by far.so I am now also trying to learn a new system.and navigating with out a mouse sucks.

Windows 8

You still be better off taking it in to the Shop, happy. You maybe throwing good money after bad.

Well folks, I think I am going to call it a night.I am just about cooked. I am going to bed early tonight.Good night people and pets.

Grog, that classic library is worth its weight in gold. I just don’t have the time or space for that right now. I’m more of a reader anyway. But I did really enjoy all those classic shows..

Good night, happy.

What do you have planned for tomorrow Grog?

I find reading harder on the eyes, Shika, which I try to preserve for work. I have a lazy left eye. Keeping my eyes fresh is hard enough without reading all night, even though I love getting into some of the classics in literature.

I know someone with a lazy eye who says the same thing. I wonder why there’s no way to fix a lazy eye? At least you can enjoy T.V. and music.

Shika, if anything serious ever happened to my right eye, I’d be blind. That scares me more than you’ll ever know.

I often think that most of us take our vision for granted. But I know enough people who have gotten macular degeneration or something like that and lost their vision to know that it is a precious gift to be able to see.

I hope to record a summer tape tomorrow, Shika, while I continue to collect more nuggets of 50’s and 60’s music. Once I’ve got everything I want, I can begin re-recording some of the old tapes I did back in the early 80’s. Some of those have lasted close to 30 years, but one-by-one they are starting to go on me. I initially had 15 tapes. It’s quite possible that I could end up with 20 or more. It’s amazing what I’ve been able to acquire since those days.

Another one of my favorite birds, sugar. Good night to you.

And now I think it’s time to give both eyes a rest and call it a night. Good night, Shika.

*Good Night Citizens of Dogs and curious cats.
