I discovered this version of the song through somebody’s post on a meh music thread a couple of years ago and it’s been a favorite of mine ever since. Here’s my latest discovery, courtesy of The Walking Dead.
My favorite thing to take videos of is my ducks. I upload them to YouTube and then expect everyone else to be as charmed by them as I am. Click for ducks!
@Pony My now long departed grandparents had ducks. The legend is that one duck loved my grandfather. The duck went to work with my grandfather, came back home and then went back to the factory to pick up my grandfather for the walk back home!
@Fuzzalini That’s Geraldine. She’s actually the only one of the ducks that has an official name. The other ones will probably get named now that they’re full grown, but they were too hard to tell apart for quite a while. They’re all female- we have them for their eggs. Duck eggs are delicious.
We also have three chicken hens named Carla, Matilda and Road Runner. We had seven, but hawks took four in the first couple of days we let them roam our property. The remaining three live in an enclosed pen now. We’re going to enlarge it so we can have more hens without crowding.
That’s it on farm critters. We do have two dogs, a male named Domino and a female named Peanut, four cats, Frankie, Kiko, Maia and Mouse, and I have a black widow spider in a big jar with a nice habitat inside. Her name is Loretta.
@fjp999 I believe it! Ducks can get very attached to their humans, and they are creatures of habit. Once they establish a routine, they stick with it. Mine aren’t particularly tame- I mean, I can sit with them and they’ll get close to me without being afraid, but I can’t pick them up without cornering them in the duck house or something.
@Fuzzalini@Pony we have many duck and chicken, all for eggs. You are correct in duck eggs are delicious. We also have 3 cats, 2 dogs, one pony. They entertain us and they keep us busy!
@Pony They sound great! Except maybe the spider. Not a fan of black widows. They are around everywhere here ( So Cal) and it’s always a surprise to realize there’s a red hourglass on the spider you’re trying to kill/remove.
@Fuzzalini I’m in Cal too. Hollister. Black widows are everywhere here. I just had to kill one tonight that had moved in underneath a table in our entryway. By keeping one as a pet, I’m helping myself to get past my arachnophobia, and learning how they act, what kind of web they make, etc. If it weren’t for Loretta, I would have thought the webs under the table were just from house spiders, but I recognized the pattern and turned the table over to look- sure enough, there she was.
Reality is that I’ve been up since about 5. I did assemble my latest impulse purchase earlier and did about 10 miles afterwards:

(Got it for under $200 new in box, hence the impulse purchase. Components are good and light, weighing in at just under 26# fully built.)
I am not sure about favorite, but most of my time is going to working on the house. Today is painting, wrapping the water heater, and attempting to get my dryer vented properly.
@jst1ofknd Well, best of luck with that. And keep us update on the progress. That’s a lot of work. And while I am at it.
Blame: I had my day planned with house stuff and then my printer just shit the bed and had to go out and get another one and set it up.
Unblame: Work covers the cost.
Blame: But, NOT my time lost!
This is my new favorite song.
@jst1ofknd I love that one too. I bought the single when it came out a couple of years ago, and I still listen to it quite often. So good.

My new favorite parody!
@jst1ofknd we had an astronaut/Marine at our ball Saturday night. He had pictures of the earth and it was done to this song.
My current favorite frozen pizza is the DIGIORNO supreme rising crust. $12 for 3 at Sams.
This is my favourite post of yours.

@Pony I love your ducks too! Who is the one with the fluffy thing on his head? I’m jealous. What kinds of other animals do you have?

What home repairs are you doing?
@mfladd
We ripped up most of the floor in the house and we are in the slow process of tiling it ourselves. It is expensive, time consuming, and painful.
@jst1ofknd Invest in some good knee pads, if you haven’t already.

@jst1ofknd @mfladd That’s exactly why I don’t allow my printer to get on my bed.
@mfladd
Sorry for the loss of time, but you needed a better printer.
