Citizen Dog by Mark O'Hare for August 09, 2012

Eleven? I count 77 dogs and one tabby cat.

Is it safe to get back into the water? Talk about a frustrating last couple of days.Don’t remember seeing this one before, too cute. Looove the last panel.

The fire department is on it’s way.

Good Morning, cleo, sugar, Fellow Baby & the rest of the CD gang

Everything loaded painfully slow when I was at the office yesterday, but it was ok when I got home yesterday and good so far this morning.

You don’t put me to sleep, Shika. I go to bed when I do because I have to if I want to try to get up to 7 hours. I’m an early morning riser – even on weekends.

I try to get through my favorite comics before I get to work. I usually read the rest at work and usually from the GoComics e-mail.

OK, so it’s August…still this strip is a winner today! This is my all-time favorite Christmas song! I always had the Five Golden Rings part and I would ham it up big time! My mother was Two Turtle Doves, and I had a friend who would call her that year-round. Now, I’ll have to learn these new words!

Good morning, CDers!

Around the time that I last commented last night, it looked like no on had been there in a while. Both my comments were together. When I went back this morning, I was shocked to see that there was so much activity! Sorry I missed everybody! (That should actually be GoComics apologizing for mucking everything up the last couple of days!!!)

GoComics Techs mulling over the problems…

Ok, call me a stickler, but Beagles “bay”, they don’t "bark!

“Six Beagles Baying …” flows more gently off the tongue than six beagles barking, too …

My favorite Christmas carol is the comedic version of the 12 Days of Christmas. The one about untangling the Chjristmas lights!

Good morning Fellow Baby, sugie and cleo!

Those 2 black labs look purple to me.

Hello to StelBel, x-Tech, Peabody, chefwen, and James Stark, and of course HAPPY and IMudd when they get here.

My favorite version is the Bob & Doug McKenzie version.

Stel ol’ bel, loved that driving basset last night. I am just going to selfishly keep the delusion that that, in part at least, was for me.yeh, when I posted that silly cartoon, I was limited to what size it could be by the dimensions of it…..if I made it larger than the size 260 or so i used , the right side of it was cut off. I’m sure you (a battle-hardened veteran of posting pics in CD) have run into this, too..“……ten hounds a howling……….and a tabby cat in a pinnnnnne treeeeee”

I had to favorite today’s CD. Very funny!Good morning to all the pet loving Citizens of Dog.

I just left comments for James Stark, IMudd and Dry and I think they’re all floating around in cyberspace (maybe on their way to Mars?). I’ll wait a while, and if they don’t appear, I guess I’ll have to re-type them…. grumble, grumble

Hang in there, IMudd ! Better days are comin’…

@Dry

This is the 3rd time I’ve tried to write a comment to you, so let’s hope three’s the charm!I don’t know the Christmas song about untangling the lights. More info, please?

(If those other comments still floating around in space appear now, I’m really going to look crazier than usual…)

@GROG!

For you, GROG! : Bob & Doug and the (how many?) days of Christmas

I had never seen or heard it before. Very funny!

Good Morning Grog, Dry, Cleo, StelBel, noicantspell & all CDers out there.

Good morning kids. Still having issues with my home page kicking me out. I am currently making a list from my email. If I navigate by typing in each comic, all seems well. Grrrrrr this is soooo slow..Little man was in the car last winter while I was getting things from the house. When I came out, the McKenzie brothers were belting it out. My son has always loved to sing so….. Really funny to hear a 6 yr old belt out ’and a beeeer in a tree. Not so funny at the grocery store.

I love this! :)

I almost forgot. Shika, the “All-wets” is my name for the Montreal Allouettes. I never did like them.

Go to the vets, IMudd. I mean, to the doctor.

That was hilarious, StelBel. I don’t think I’ve seen that particular show, but I do have that skit/song on The Great White North Album. I haven’t listened to it for a long time! Perhaps I should play it next Christmas for a laugh.

Perhaps that was the single version. They appear to have eliminated those mystery days of Christmas that they couldn’t figure out. Three mystery days and 9 through 11 were skipped.

Hi, Shika!!!

I call the CFL the Childrens’ Football League.

Back atcha, Grog.

What’s on tonight? I finished dinner early and now I am sleepy.

I’ll see you later everyone. I hope you are here StelBel.

For a more traditional version.Twelve Days of Christmas by the Klein Four Group.

@ShikamooYou must like counting x_tech!+++++++++++++++++Yes, I do but the way these guys do it has me baffled.Finite Simple Group (of Order Two)

It’s The Dick Van Dyke Show, tonight, Shika.

Starting dinner shortly.

It was a glorious day, sunny and the time to just sit and read.

“Thank you. I napped and got some food,things are now better.”+++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++Glad to hear it! Hope it stays that way for a while, at least.

Hope everything is OK with happyathome and his mom…

Did you ever wonder what the recipient thought of all these loving gifts?

i dont know what to think.i am on chrome now, but it even seems to be quirky

It was a grilled salmon night, Shika. And tomorrow night is hot dogs!

I’ll be doing my dishes now and then signing off. See you in a few.

I guess this is good night, Shika.

Shika!!

You there???

Okay Grog. I didn’t know if you were here.

Are you finished for the night?

I’m here, too, but you need to REFRESH!!!

Yayyyyyyyyyyyyyyy!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I didn’t plan to be this late, but here I am…

No, I’m here for about another hour. I thought you were going for the evening.

StelBel, you are right. The REPLY button doesn’t work!

“Yay! I see you! How was your day StelBel?

And to what do I owe this honour??"++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++Well, I wouldn’t stay up for just anybody, you know…….And, I got waylayed on a couple other strips, as well.

REPLY works about 50% of the time for me.

Yep. Listened to it about 10 minutes ago. Well done…I wouldn’t be able to mix up all those songs on purpose like that.

I loved the video, StelBel. I’d never seen it before, just the song on the radio at Christmas time. I actually have Take Off! on one of the many tapes I’ve made.

Shika Thanks! I agree! I usually can’t respond til the next morning. Just wish I could type faster!!!

Grog! What’s Take Off?

StelBel said, 1 minute agoYep. Listened to it about 10 minutes ago. Well done…I wouldn’t be able to mix up all those songs on purpose like that.*********************************************************************Yes, I would get them mixed up. I can tell they must be in a University College. It looked like Professors sitting in the background, and students on the stairs. So funny!

One of their comedy skits?

Shika — did you listen to the other one, too?

I’ll have to listen to x_Tech’s version a little later. I’m on my iPad while watching my show. My iPad doesn’t seem to like Utube.

My iPad doesn’t like the Internet!! We actually can’t seem to connect it to the wireless network. We’ll have to take it into the “shop” for an overhaul. LOL

StelBel said, less than a minute agoShika — did you listen to the other one, too?***************************************************************Yes. You meant the second song? I gather it was mathematical. I failed at math you know!! ;-)

But I laughed anyways. I figured it must be funny the way the others reacted.

Math wasn’t my best subject, either!

Take Off is their hit single on The Great White North album. Gheddi Lee from Rush did the vocals. As he says, 5 bucks is 5 bucks.

I’ll give it another try and turn the volume up.

StelBel said, 1 minute agoMy iPad doesn’t like the Internet!! We actually can’t seem to connect it to the wireless network. We’ll have to take it into the “shop” for an overhaul. LOL*****************************************************************My laptop like the wireless well enough, and so does my iPod. I don’t have an iPad though.

Grog! Where did you go? StellesBella stayed up!

Today we connected my laptop to the big flatscreen and some speakers. It’s like having a monster monitor

I think he must be distracted with whatever he’s got on the TV…Dick Van Dyke was it???

Look again, Shika. I just replied to StelBel’s question. I can’t type as fast on my iPad.

Whoops! I copied the wrong statement StelBel. I wish the REPLY button worked.

6 posts up from my last one.

StelBel said, less than a minute agoI think he must be distracted with whatever he’s got on the TV…Dick Van Dyke was it???******************************************************Yes. He said that is what he is watching tonight.

OK, GROG, I scrolled back and found your answer. So, I could probably find it all on YouTube, wouldn’t ya think?

Yes it seems to have almost everything.

Grog. I see you now. I’m surprised I am faster even with the dumb REPLY function not working.

I don’t know how I would do with an iPad.

Well, it was good to watch the videos that I wanted to see on YouTube, like full episodes. Something like posting comments is best done close up. up on the wall 15’ away would be a little disconcerting.

It’s just an extra word, Shika and only 4 letters at that.

I’m terrible on the iPad, but I think like everything else, the more you do it, the better you’ll be.

I like You Tube.

Now some of the handles on this site I wouldn’t dream of typing out. They’re way to long. The reply button is a must.

“I like You Tube.”+++++++++++++++++++You can get lost on that site for hours. Sometimes, though, you end up in very strange places there…..stranger than strange….bizarre!

GROG, does the REPLY always work for you on the iPad?

Citizen GROG! said, less than a minute agoNow some of the handles on this site I wouldn’t dream of typing out. They’re way to long. The reply button is a must.******************************************************************I like to copy and paste sometimes to show what I am replying to.

I imagine you both are going to be saying good night soon, are you?

Shika said:“I like to copy and paste sometimes to show what I am replying to.”++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++…………………and, sometimes you don’t! LOL

Show’s over and now I’ll be powering up upstairs. Be back in 5.

GROG! You know that Shika starts with the morning comments and replies to all of them throughout the day, without copying what she’s replying to, so that, if you don’t remember, you have to wade through 700 comments to figure it out! That’s why I memorize all of them!!! LOL

I just keep trying the REPLY, to no avail…

Shika , I’ve started to do the same thing. I expect you to say, “you’ve learned well, Grasshoppa…!”

Do you remember that from Kung Fu with David Carradine back in the, what?, late 60’s? early 70’s? I don’t remember….

Yes, you have learned well, from Shika.

Where is that Dry? She always says no one misses her!

Sometimes, because it’s GoComics, things start working again (for a little while…long enough to lull you into a false sense of security and well being). I still have faith that someday there will be an EDIT button again…………

x_Tech’s version certainly was interesting.

@Grog,

Yes, I’d lose my title fast as quick-draw McShika if I copied and pasted everything.

Dry will probably show up after we’ve gone, like she did the last time!

That’ll be my luck. I’m going to be going soon. My fingers are starting to hit any old keys, but not the right ones.

And say I’m not sifting through 200 comments. And I can’t blame her either. You just gotta be here.

I still have to post a picture, and I don’t have any idea what. Any requests?

I think it was all Dogsniff’s doing so that he could ensure being the first poster on selected strips.

I have never understood why being first is so desirable.

We are only at 158 comments Grog. :-D

I think we have 39 posts to go.

StelBel said, less than a minute agoI have never understood why being first is so desirable,**************************************Me neither. But then, I am almost NEVER first. When I am, it is a fluke!!

(I’m going in about 5 minutes, but I’ll post this first)

Yes, Shika. He would put an “x” as a comment on those select strips and come back to them whem he’d thought of something funny to say.

I’m waiting for your post StelBel! Then I’ll say good night.

Good night, everybody! Enjoy your evening!

When I refreshed we were at 160. This is 168 unless someone scoots in ahead of me.

Shika How’s that?

Did you ever see his X?

We just broke last Friday’s record. Trust me!

Good Night, StelBel.

Good Night StelBel. And thank you for the white cat. He is beautiful. The spitting image of my MUA too.

GROG I didn’t know that was how he did it! Actually, I like that idea. It would hold my place while I came up with something clever. (although, it might take me a day or two for something clever to pop into my head)

175!

Whoo Hoo! Citizens of Dogs (and Cats) rock!

OMG, Shika, of course, use it! Can you just copy it right to your avatar?

Almost like me. ;-)

“Then we’d have to go back to see whaat you were talking about StelBel. Almost like me. ;-)”++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++I just can’t win…

Good night, GROG! and Shika !!! See you both tomorrow! Sleep well and say Hi! to Dry and happy for me.

Fortunately it took Dogsniff considerably less time to come up with something clever, Shika. Unfortunately there are times my mind will only click much later in the day….when everyone else – or almost everyone else is done posting.

Ha! No, you can’t, can you? Besides, do you want to cheat like that when you come up with the best posts already?

And I’m not about to shift my hours around to be here past midnight so that I can come up with something more clever. Still yet, it may take a whole day to come up with something funny.

I’m going to upload that photo now and then call it a night. How about you Grog? You must have another early day tomorrow.

Not quite as early, Shika. I’ll go in a tad later. I have a 9 AM meeting until about noon and an offsite meeting in the afternoon. Hopefully I will be done early for the day.

We are 9 short of 200!

’night.

Your replies are usually funnier, Shika.

That is so cute, StelBel.

If they were that bad, Shika, I wouldn’t bother waiting up (a reasonable amount of time) to read them.

Good Night Shika!

Weird! My avatar is disappearing on me. Mua! Don’t go!

Good night Grog! This makes 200.

Good night, Shika. Good night, Groggy

If you are still here Grog, have a good sleep, and thanks for keeping me company! I don’t have lots to say other than reply to everyone. I don’t know all the names people talk about, but I have fun here.

Well I enjoy your company, Shika! Sleep well.

… hello?

Shika here. I need to get to bed noicant, but first, how was your day?

noicant! I’m here!

How was your day?

He left before he saw me…..

((((((((((noicant))))))))))))

My guess is that you have had a bad day. Hope you get a good night’s sleep.

im here.im in and out.im trying to go through mu cue, and trying to figure out this stupid clumsy spell check that google has.

baaad day.trying, and failing, to figure out why this place all of a sudden just stopped working on my bing account.and,i took mom to her last therapy session. after we went to get her a walker, and a couple of other things and she had a paranoid break down.20 minutes of her screaming, yelling, and praying because she was going to die, and i and “they” were going to hurt her.my afternoon has bin a slice of hell.

toon tour…ill be back

213…214 now.wow, what fun i missed out on.crap.

HOLY HE!! 214 COMMENTS??? AIN’T EVEN GONNA TRY! GOOD NIGHT ALL!

good night everyone…

Wow you were a busy group tonight..@happyathome I’m so sorry you had a bad day with your mom. Then having computer issues on top of it all. ((((((((((Noicant))))))))))Try to get a good nights rest. Before I go to bed I always like to stargaze for a while, it helps me relax. Oh and you can hear the ocean from your place can’t you? Hot tea with honey, stars and ocean sounds. That sounds very relaxing to me. :-)

And now we are even again. StelBel beautiful kitties as usual.Good night kids.
