Jack the Cuckoo

Published 16 July 7 6:21 AM | William

As my regulars know, I use an oversized blue cuckoo bird as one of my online alter egos.  I flip in between the big blue one and the were-cuckoo (who's dressed as a dapper vampire cuckoo above) and switch them out regularly.  Being a huge bird lover (and a dog lover), I'm a natural cat hater.  You see, cats, and not just feral ones, are the number 1 killers of birds.  Cats should be outlawed unless they are willing to prove their worthiness by being cat-a-paulted (get it?) a few hundred feet in the air into a sewer, or at least a really murky pond.  But this isn't about how much cats suck, it's about how cool cuckooz are.

 So I'm watching Jack and notice his color - He's blue.  Blue ahhh?  I know one of those.  And he's a grumpy smart a33.  The one I know is grumpy and a smart a33 too.  Doesn't get much cooler than that - although he needs ported to Silverlight.

 

Jack The Cuckoo Rulez!

But must we see this ugly thing with every post at http://msmvps.com/blogs/. Keep it, and your small minded views to this blog only.

 Editor's note:  Where have I head that Small minded views thing before?  Hmmm.  Since none of my images show on msmvps.com/blogs and since this wasn't posted to the aggregate list - this poster is clearly full of it.  I'll continue to post whatever the hell I feel like posting and I'll post it as I see fit until the Susan tells me otherwise.  Please Charles, you're more than welcome to come troll on my blog, but at least post your real name.

Hugh Mungus, newsflash: If you don't like somebody's blog, or the character they use, DON'T READ IT. Kinda simple, eh? It's amazing that some obviously 'large minded' person like you couldn't come to such a simple conclusion. Maybe you need to crawl out of whatever hole you crawled out of.

Go Away Charles.  I'm sorry you're really upset about my cat comment. I know you spend a lot of time talking to your cat and psychoanalyzing it. I know you have had your life turned upside down by  a few feral cats moving in your neighborhood. Sorry about all that.  

When you take ownership of this site from Susan, I'll take your suggestions to heart, until then, please go away.

Kim - please ignore this a-hole.  He talks to his cats and diagnoses them with mental diseases so we really need not bother with him.

With all these fellow cats telling their stories, I feel comfterble sharing too. Charles Carroll tried to turn me into his love slave and impregnate me with a child he wanted to name Jenaveve Gertrude Lamont Latasha Roger Fluffy-Carroll and labeled me feral when I said no. After screaming, "NO MEANS NO!" I was able to escape out of a large hole in a wall at his home. Thanks to his broken down house, I wasn't kept prisioner.

    Please note that this is my personal blog and the opinions expressed are my own. Also, comment moderation is about one of the least important things in my life so please keep that in mind. I can't vouch for the authenticity of any of the posters so please don't hold me accountable. And whatever you do, don't pretend to be Noted Option Strict Off expert and AspFriend Charles Mark Carroll when you post. Doing so will lead him to become apoplectic and write absurd accusatory posts about me that are as coherent and thought out as they are factually correct. He does a stellar job proving his reputation is well deserved and he doesn't need any help from you making himself look foolish. If I have to listen to him banging his spoon off of his high chair one more time, I'm going to burst into flames so please don't make that happen!
