Apparently, my duck offends some. HE'S NOT REAL, PEOPLE!

[graywarrior]

No animals were hurt during this posting.

[leftchick]

1. lol...

:rofl:

[ET Awful]

2. Your duck may not be real, but mine is

And she's not offended in the least by your duck tape :)

[RC]

22. I wonder if your ducks know my ducks?

[ET Awful]

23. It's possible :)

Cousins maybe? :)

[Theres-a]

28. She's smiling!!How adorable.

4. What the duck is that?

Sorry, it had to be said.

[I Have A Dream]

5. yeah, but this just seems wrong anyway...

It freaks me out! :rofl:

(Disclosure: I had to change my settings to see your sig to even know what you were talking about. I'm going to change it back now so that I don't see it anymore! :) )

[ElsewheresDaughter]

6. i love your ducktaped

[evlbstrd]

7. I've loved your duck since you added it. Shuolda said so at the time.

He reminds me of Daffy, and what I think should be done to the AFLAC duck (which is digital, for all the animal rights folks).

[KoKo]

8. It's the quivering feet....seems like poor thing is struggling...

it always gives me shivers... :D But, I got your point...:-)'s

[KoKo]

10. After thinking about this...Why not a Duck that BREAKS FREE of the DUCTAPE

One with Popeye Muscles that bursts forward from the Asscroft/Gonzalez BOUNDS and becomes...SUPER DUCK! READY TO TAKE ON THE BUSHIES!

[nadinbrzezinski]

9. I LOVE your duck

it makes me laugh.. as a parent of three birds I at times wonder do they make conure tape too? Parrot owners will get the joke

[rexcat]

11. Keep the duck...

and ignore the the people who don't like it. I was going to say "ignore the idiots" but that would be poor taste no matter how truthful.

[kliljedahl]

30. and redundant if you said both

Keith’s Barbeque Central

[rexcat]

74. Thanks, I think?

I see that you are a BBQ aficionado. Same here. I'm on a another business trip and will be doing BBQ in Jacksonville, FL tomorrow.

On edit: that is smoked with wood for 18 hours at low temperature and finished of on an open pit!

[kliljedahl]

81. That's the only way to do it

I'm assuming you're talking about brisket or a huge pork shoulder for that length of time. By redundant I meant referring to "ignore the the people who don't like it" and "ignore the idiots".

12. A Duck Joke

A duck walks into a pub and orders a pint of lager and a ham sandwich. The landlord looks at him and says, "But you're a duck"

"I see you're eyes are working" replies the duck.

"And you talk!" exclaims the landlord.

"I see you're ears are working" says the duck, "now can I have my beer and my sandwich please?"

"Certainly," says the landlord, " sorry about that, it's just we don't get many talking ducks in this pub. What are you doing round this way?"

"I'm working on the building site across the road" explains the duck. So the duck drinks his beer, eats his sandwich and leaves. This continues for about 2 weeks. Then one day the circus comes to town.

The ring leader of the circus comes into the pub and the landlord says to him; "You're with the circus aren't you? I know this duck that would be just brilliant in your circus, he talks, drinks beer and everything!"

"Sounds marvellous" says the ringleader, "get him to give me a call."

So the next day, the duck comes into the pub. The landlord says, "Hey Mr Duck. I reckon I can line you up with a top job. Paying really good money!"

"Yeah?" says the duck, "Sounds great, where is it?"

"At the circus" says the landlord.

"The circus?" the duck enquires.

"That's right" replies the landlord.

"The circus? That place with the big tent? With all the animals?

"That's right!" says the landlord.

The duck looks confused. "What the Hell do they want with a plasterer?"

13. But, but, but...

Where's his (plas)tic sheeting?

By the way...you all know the origin of the word politics, doncha?...it's from the Latin...Poli...meaning many, and tics meaning...well, you know what that means.

[kcass1954]

14. I got something similar in an email a couple of years ago.

It was "from" Amelia Bedelia, and said, "Okay, I've got my duck taped. Now what?"

15. "Lord Love A Duck" 1966 Roddy McDowell and Tuesday Weld

High-school senior Barbara Ann Greene has a lot to overcome to reach her dreams to be popular, get a job, find a husband, and maybe even be a movie star: she's poor, her parents are divorced, and her mother is a cocktail waitress. Right beside her, though, is her best friend and Svengali, Alan. He helps her get 12 cashmere sweaters, a job in the principal's office, spring break at Balboa, and more. Along the way, the satire bites teen mores, beach-blanket bikini movies, adults in charge, the country-club set, Christian-youth programs, older men's fantasies, and teen girls' innocence. How popular will Barbara Ann become, and what lengths will Alan go to get her there?

[graywarrior]

17. He is a trained duck. He gets paid for this. He's a ducted up comedian.

It was this gig, or duck soup. He chose this. I have a quacked contract.

[Tom Yossarian Joad]

18. I believe it. I had a sniffer sig that freaked people out so bad that

I had to remove it.

We do have a few DU dummies when it comes to some things.


I love your sig!

[johnaries]

[uppityperson]

29. Seriously? hahahahahahahahahahaha

[graywarrior]

33. I forget. I got a PM from someone whom I'm sure meant well.

[uppityperson]

35. Along the line of "it is not fun to hurt animals, promote cruelty"?

After all, we all know what a short step it is from laughing at duck tapped virtual ducks to putting tape on kitty cats and a short step to putting tape over repubs mouths. Really.

[graywarrior]

49. You got it.

[Theres-a]

32. Keep the duck!

I like him almost as much as Spacemom's penguins.Hmm,I noticed she doesn't have them anymore.I wonder if the people that didn,t like your ducks got to her about the penguins?:silly:

[graywarrior]

34. Hmmmm. Interesting that they're in the same animal family...birds.

[Theres-a]

36. And last week there was a moratorium..

No chicken threads in the lounge.Strange things are afoot.

[ET Awful]

38. Indeed, there's something fowl going on here

40. Maybe it's precautionary

I see alot of articles on birdflu in LBN lately.:7

[shockra]

37. The duck is funny.

But you know what? It reminds of a conversation I had on another board with two women after a news story about a baby being duct taped to a wall. They thought it was funny, and I said it was cruel (at the very least) because babies don't have the muscles to hold their large heads up. The lady who was pregnant with her first baby assured me that that was not true! And yes, she was a Republican.

I found the story:

abcNEWS.com, March 24, 2000
Baby Duct-Taped to Wall--Day Care Center Director Admits to Incident

The Associated Press
H U D S O N, Mass., March 24 — The director of a day-care center duct-taped an 8-month-old girl to a wall, thinking the sight of the struggling baby was funny, state officials said in a report.

The director of A Place to Grow in suburban Boston later admitted to the incident, the Office for Child Care Services said in a 12-page report issued this week. The center’s license was suspended last week.

The report also said state investigators found that babies were force-fed and swaddled so tightly that they had red marks. Some infants allegedly got a blast of water in the face if they cried.

“Although the motive for such conduct is not clear at this time,” the state said, “at least one staff member stated that the director and the staff would get ‘a kick out of doing that.’”

Thanks for providing the opportunity. I feel SO much better now.

Redstone

lame-duck-taping motherducker winging it like a chickenhawkin' turkey buzzard.

[Redstone]

hen-laying, egg hatching bird-brained, goose-stepping, lame-duck-taping motherducker winging it like a chickenhawkin' turkey buzzard.

Redstone

56. I may well be a sitting duck, hen-laying, egg hatching, bird-brained,

goose-stepping, lame-ducktaping mutherducker winging it like a chickenhawkin' turkey buzzard, but at least I ain't

[Redstone]

58. Well if you "mall wll be" all that, I guess you win.

Too bad. I was hoping to work "egg-sucking dog" into the conversation at some point or other.

But that was all I had left; thanks for the back-and-forth. It was fun.
