I heard that owls hate crows and that crows hate owls is this true?

Odd titles I would like to see?

My cat doesn’t have anything wrong with it … help what do I do?

Ice cream!!! Did someone say ice cream??? Heck, you can bring the whole darn menagerie as long as I can have me some ice cream! I hear one of those crazy fusion cooking dudes makes ice cream with squid ink and I bet goat’s milk ice cream would be very tasty and…and…did I tell you I luuurves me the ice cream??? I’d probably even hang out with the scorpions for some ice cream…as long as they don’t take too much… And don’t forget the ball pythons ('cause I happen to know they don’t care for ice cream. All the more from me! Heh heh heh…)

Whoa! Whoa! Calm down there, Crow. This is going to wind up like that time you snuck into the zoo’s cafeteria before opening hours, when deliveries were being made. They never did find that Tillamook Ice Cream truck and somewhere in eastern Washington there’s a pair of macaques dressing in clothes trying to pass for humans and working the vineyards to support their ice cream habits, which _ **you** _ got them started on!

Oh, Ok. Right. Um, yeah. I got a little crazy there for a moment but I’m better now. Hey, guys? Maybe it’s better if we don’t mention the I C word, um words, again. OK? As long as the goat can keep his bad habits under control, I’ll try to too.

And, **Robot Arm,** I’m near Wright Park and downtown. Scrub Jay used to live in Lakewood, right near the end of McChord AFB’s runway. Those giant cargo planes would pass right overhead, seeming to barely clear the trees.

Um, what lives in the ice cream freezer? Crazy Crow is wondering if she can take it on. I’ll try to make her see sense but it might take a while…

**Mr. Quatro,** you posted while I was “composing” (Yeah, that’s the word.) Any owl friend of yours is an owl friend of mine. He doesn’t like ice cream, does he?

Ahhh, the never ending trials and tribulations of cats.

What “lives” in the “ice cream” freezer? Interesting choice of words. Don’t worry. You’ll find out during your initiation ceremony. What are your feelings about seafood?

Another thread title for you;

I’d like to think you’re talking about Anthony’s-Homeport-type seafood but I suspect it’s more like Cthulhu-type seafood. Personally, I don’t eat (or get eaten by) anything that I can’t pronounce.

**Robot Arm,** can you believe I’ve been visiting this area of Tacoma for about six years now and I haven’t been to Frisko Freeze? Every time we’ve driven by, I’ve looked at it and wanted to go there but never got the chance. Now that I live here I’m going to take a stroll that way.

My favorite of the more recent thread titles is “Godzilla-type creatures found, US mobilizes entire military. Japan initiate Project: Gundam” Now I’m going to be humming “Oh no, they say he’s got to go. Go, go Godzilla” all night.

I thought they were banned for their woeful grasp of punctuation and for cursing outside The Pit at the grammarians…Not you personally, though **MB** …

**Hopeful Crow** , I rather suspect you will get along just fine here…C’Thulhu intolerance notwithstanding.

“I’d like to think you’re talking about Anthony’s-Homeport-type seafood but I suspect it’s more like Cthulhu-type seafood. Personally, I don’t eat (or get eaten by) anything that I can’t pronounce.”

I found the goat, but he won’t come in until _someone_ goes downstairs and gets the “I-C”, \<looks at **RangerJeff** expectantly…\>

How about a thread titled **Creationists called away, Earth immediately starts being productive…**

The crow is my spirit animal, so I think its cool that you are into crows. Is everyone in your family named after a different corvid?

Actually that is just a partial scenario of what really happen.

It is true that the alien signed up, but he/she (couldn’t tell due to the strange keyboard the alien was using) made the mistake of posting first in “Great Debates”.

As soon as he/she made a general reference to his/her God Czarcasm jumped on him with some of his other buddies and said, cite, cite or in other words prove it.

This in turn infuriated the alien and he/she made a crude online jester something about finding him and breaking him of his bad habit of making everyone prove the point they are trying to make.

The rest is history as the alien was never heard from again … :smack:

Darn edit window.  
\*\*  
Mr. Nylock,\*\* I hadn’t thought about naming the rest of my family after corvids. Since there aren’t that many left (of my family,) I’ll call my youngest sister’s family Ma and Pa Raven and Chicks 1 and 2.
