Jarhead sent us this photo of Julio, the kitten he rescued. Aww, he looks like a lover, doesn't he? I keep hearing " ♫ Me and Julio down by the schoolyard. ♫" Welcome back, Jarhead, we missed you.
I was so glad to see your comment today on the Michelle post, Jarhead. I left you a message there before I saw this one. Well, from all those comments I guess it is unanimous - You have been missed :)
Julio just looks excellent with bright eyes and beautiful coat. It must feel good to have saved his life! I definitely vote for a rescue mate to hang with.
That was weird when that person pretended to be Jarhead. What kind of jerk would do a thing like that? Pretend to be someone they're not just to mess with people?
i agree crabbie...people who fake being other people have serious mental problems....not only do they wrongly string people along, but it's just so manipulative....
It was the real one and only Enrique / jar no one is pretending to be anyone. I recieved the exact same pic this morning from him this morning along with Pat /DD.
Enrique please if you can post your photo so they can all see how handsome you are.
IMO Enrique / jarhead looks like 2 movie stars /leading men in Hollywood of the era of glam and the new modern action hero. That being said Enrique has a remarkable resembelance to legendary French thespian Charles Boyer ( only much taller & Spanish ) with a subtle hint of a young Jean Reno.
How do we know a fake Crabbie didn't leave that comment about the fake Jarhead????
Welcome back Jarhead!!!! Man, that must have been some mission you were on!!! I guess that's just another one of the stories you will have to tell us one of these days! Glad to see you have a friend! Welcome Julio!!!
Yup. There was a fake jarhead but they left when we called them on it. Kiki, you probably didn't see it cause it was when you were upset and not online. People who fake personas have a special place in Helll. So jar, is Julio fixed yet? I always fix my animals. Especially the boy cars.. They tend to spray.
Lol.. I am using hubs iTouch and it would not even let me spell hellll. Prudish thing. Let me try a real swear. Fuck ...oh let me type that. I must pay attention or it will substitute.
Wasn't Charles Boyer in Gaslight? When I think someone is pulling my leg... I ask them if they are "gaslighting" me. Great movie. Must see if you never have.
What a creep to say things like that to get kicks.
Julio will be neutered next week. I don't want to declaw him though.
kiki, I watched "The Big Blue" on the plane- and had some really good green and black tea that the Nords brought with them. I ate so much cheese of all kinds and way too much chocolate. Aside from that it was a big starefest.
We sat across from each other at a table and waited for the answers to magically appear. When nothing happened; we decided to get back together in a few weeks. It was like marriage counseling without the finger pointing.
Angie, is that your cat on the pic?. I'm really liking the Bombay cats the more I read about them.
isn't the big blue a rather 'old' movie to show on a plane? wasn't that late 80s? i thought planes showed new movies? i admit i am plane movie ignorant....
I watch it on my computer on long trips because the movie is so long and the water images are nice. When kiki saw my picture and mentioned Jean Reno I mentioned to her that I had seen him in the movie. Apocalypse Now is the other movie I bring along and watch to kill time. I don't even bother with movies on the plane.
never ever heard of jean reno! it's always amazed me how you and kiki are so alike!
someone i had a class with had a little laptop that had like a 6 hour battery and they would watch movies on it on planes.....much cheaper than paying for movies on the plane!
Miss Tia what is diaf ? Yes you're right I didn't even know that there was a fake jarhead. Omg ! How rude !!!! You can chose from a variety of movies and tv programs on flights nowadays on your own personal monitor usually built into the back of the seat in front of yours.
Enrique I think you'd better let these patient ladies and one Crabbie finally see you. Come on bayou Jane has been waiting long enough !
Yes Charles Boyer played Ingrid Bergman s husband in Gaslight. But I'm sure Enrique is much taller than Mr. Boyer. From his pic he has that TD& H ( tall dark & handsome ) thing down pat with a wimsy of a younger Jean Reno. Jean Reno s most recent movie was in 2010 as the guru in Couples Retreat. After you all get to see Enrique you will say that he could pass for a French man easily with his gr8 looks.
it is more than rude to pretend you are someone else or to purposely lie about your life online....peoples don't have to share their life and can only relieve what they wish, but to flat out lie?! inexcusable....
us ladies are too smart and savvy to fall for that....
heidi your mention of cat nip reminded me i bought some roast beef for the critters!!
Miss Tia I agree with you. We are alike. I remember a few months ago when he told me that he & I look alike. He's right we do only I'm much smaller and shorter of course. In January when DD posted my pix Rox thought I looked just like her daughter and later when Kelly s engagement pix was posted I agreed. I guess it's all to do with the European derivations in our backgrounds. I'm half Italian & irish. Jarhead is of Spanish ancestry. Close enuf eh ? You can see for yourself when his pix goes up.
Tia I do highlight my hair. My family goes back to the 2 Rogers ( the first & second ) both of the island nation of Sicily. At one time long ago Sicily ruled all of Italy under the Norman's conquest.
Tia, Jean Reno was 'Leon' in "The Professional". Natalie Portman was the little 12 year old orphan who tagged along with him.
I agree about the impersonators. I don't think it's cool when people make up lies about their life just to seem relevant. I learned to smell that BS after busting my ex-boyfriend's lies about his life. When I spot that BS I just try to ignore the person, not even worth my time. They can live in their own widdle fantasy world for all I care, I won't be dragged in it with them.
miss tia ~ agree totally about people lying and pretending online. No one is impressed & it just ticks everyone off.
Heidi ~ when we had our cat (looked similar to Jar's, only a Polydactyl) I would give him catnip as a learning tool for my kids.... Don't use drugs, Cat on drugs. Funniest damn thing to watch.
no clue who the 'rogers' are.....but i don't think you look italian at all or irish...perhaps i am stereotyping....i do look greek though.....
meissa, i agree with you except that those scumbag's little fantasies usually entrap good people and they end up feeling used and abused....i agree with ignoring them but if they keep it up, i think eventually they need to be called out....
I'm 111 pounds & 5 ' 3 inches tall and can paint and do sing alto soprano. Haha LoL at your I'm big in japan joke jarhead. That's a good one in case it went over anyone here's head. He was making a joke. And yes we do look alot alike. Only I'm a lil bit cuter than you are Enrique if I do say so myself. LoL ;-)) -Kiki
Tia, I try to ignore for the most part, but inside I'm just dying to let them have it ;). I do when it gets to that point though. You're right, they do take advantage of people who are clueless....
Tia I don't know who they are other than some olde Norman dudes who where all gung ho with aquirering and aquisitioning or whatever the hell those olde Norman dudes called it in those days ( conquering ) or something similar to that. Sicily is a nice island on the tyrennian sea & it's just like in the olde days if you get what I mean by this next sentence. To quote the Who. " meet the new boss same as the olde boss !" I'm sure you understand what I mean by the use of the word " boss." And I'm not talking about the former Rogers 1&2 of the Norman family. -Kiki :) ps Geneology is a lil hobby I used to do.
isn't it true that sicilians don't like to be known as italian? i knew an sicilian barber who had served under mussolini and he HATED being called italian....HATED IT...he had pictures of mussolini and the pope on his walls still....
i knew another kid in school who was sicilian and he too hated being called italian....
it probably would be interesting if you could trace your geneology back that far if you could tie into history and know who those roger dudes were...would be a great document for your kids and grandkids!!
i bet you and jar are related on that family tree! celebrity name for ya is definitely gonna be jarki! :) ♥
I agree with you 100% !!!!!!!!!!! They do hate it ! My mother never stops yapping ant chance she gets at the great fascist Mussolini " il Capo " which translates into " the Boss ! " tooooooo true Tia :) I sent you a pix I just took a clear one for you to see without all that suntan dark skin I had in January. Check your email soon. -Kiki :)
ps I prefer N-Ri -Ki -Ki better than jarki even though it's a pain in the arse to spell it out with all those damn hyphens et al. LoL besides jarki sounds like jerky as in beef jerky to me LOL nowy sides hurt too C J :-))))) lol !!! - Kiki
My gfather lived in rome in his later years. He was Italian. I think you are right about Sicilians Tia. It would be like calling a Canadian an American.. Just because the countries are close together.
Cats on nip is free entertainment. Poor Julio will be a non Julio before you know it. Surprised the vet will fix so early. It will knock the piss and vinegar out of him.
some places do fix critters awfully early.....but the kitty in in the pix isn't a 6 week old kitty....he looks about a year old, so it's okay to fix 'em!
oh that would make a canadian mad to call 'em americans!!! good point heidi!
Next week is his first vet visit. He will be neutered whenever the Dr says it's ok. I've never shared space with a cat before so I'm unfamiliar with cat issues. I love how lazy and un-catlike he is though.
kiki is the perfect name for you. (For all the right reasons, ha, ha)
Heidi ~ Julio is going to be a Julia when the vet gets done.
My MIL was Sicilian, but would tell everyone she was Italian. Almost every 'Italian' in the town I grew up in was Sicilian, except for a few families from Naples. At the time they came to this country the Irish moved up one step on the ladder and the Italians went to the bottom. The Scilians were considered a step below the Italians. She would be adamant about not being Sicilian. Most came to my town in the late 1800s to very early 1900s to work on the railroad.
he hasn't gone to the vet yet? i thought he was really ill when you got him? i don't know how you got 'em back to health w/o know about nuttin' bout birthing no babies...i mean cat issues...haha...gone with the wind reference....
jar....i think kiki might find it offensive your reference to her name! did you know in tagalong kiki means vagina? in hawaiian it means barking....and in the urban dictionary it means shallow....were you calling her an shallow barking vagina?! haha!
miss tia ~ I have to give myself a shot (injection) in a few minutes. It's going to be hard when I'm laughing & the sides still hurt!!
Kiki ~ Am I a Canadian also? I can trace one side of my family to the mid 1600s in Ontario - Lennox & Addington township. Probably still some distant cousin there. My relative left there in 1855 but my g-grandparents went back for 10 years in 1890.
ooo...another link! jar and kiki both know mayan! see, jarki sticks!!! it's almost like you guys are the same person you are so similar!!
on my psycho mother's side i can trace back to the hugonots [sic] fleeing france....they went to canada change the name to hugunin and then migrated to america.....of course on my father's side....greek....
I found him the morning before I left when I was looking for the owls one last time. He came right up to me and looked dirty and thin. I brought him in and cleaned him and gave him water. Noticed the worm problem and called a friend of mine that has cats and lives on a ranch near by. She also bakes delicious pies I've mentioned here before.
She dewormed him and took care of him until I got back. He looks fine to me so i couldn't justify emergency room vet visit.
well see jar...you must know something about cats since you noticed he had worms! you aren't a cat-tard! (i called myself a dog-tard when i got Molly because i didn't know much about dogs!!)....
Jarhead, sorry to be a pain in your ass, but the first thing I would do if I found a critter in the conditions you describe (which are awful) I would be taking it to the vet first thing. The emergency visit is 100% justified in that case. I commend you for rescuing the furball, it's nice to hear there are still compassionate people out there. Of course the cat looks fine now, your friend did good while you were away!
Sometimes vets cover costs if the cats are strays, provided they participate in the local trap-neuter-return program with the shelter. They also help the local shelters find homes for the critters, and cover a good percentage of the neutering and vaccines with the shelter's adoption fees. I know our vet covers the cost of surgeries and treatment when people bring in animals they have found that have had accidents...my in-laws cats are mostly cats that have been dropped at the vet with broken legs, hips, etc...and the vet covered their surgery/treatment...my in laws used to be foster kitty parents but the kitties never left :)
So Yah,,,I have a really important job doing IT around the world so I am like a really wealthy dude who spends his time talking to a bunch of Hyena's on a blog when I am home b/c like I have nothing better to do?? Really come on guys you really think this dude does what he does but then when he is home FINALLY he sits on here and talks his nights/days away with you chicks? You all crack me up...Even when "he" came back it was I want to know how so and so's illness is, how so and so got away from her abusive husband how so and so got a new face....What MAN does that???? You guys crack me up.
Heidi---I feel your pain about spell check on Apple products. I was trying to type "asshat" in a post, and it came up with the word "sashays" instead. Cracked me up. It did not want to let me circumvent its manner/etiquette/prude controls, either. Julio is adorable, and what a kind thing you did by rescuing the little guy. I am haunted by a little kitten (feral, I'm sure) that I saw when I was on my lunch from picking berries when I was in my early teens. The little kitty was in poor shape and was crying at me from inside a blackberry patch. He was too quick, and I couldn't catch him. I would have loved to take him home and take care of him. You did a good thing. He looks healthy as can be---beautiful coat and bright eyes. Your friend knew what she was doing.
Julio was dehydrated and had obvious tapeworms, but was responsive and playful once he had water and rest. His eyes and teeth looked fine, as did his coat once I bathed him, so Lisa (my friend that watched him)-agreed that he was ok. We doctor animals at the ranch all the time and none of us felt an urgency about him.
The troll sounds like so many Mosque leaders in Iraq when they do call to prayer and start insulting Americans and calling us "hyenas", just like this guy. And they hide when they do it as well. They smile at the market and say "Shukran", and then take a shot from behind a wall.
Julio is absolutely precious, looks like he is very happy to have been found. I think you should rescue the Bombay. If we had the means & space, our house would be a zoo, I'm one of those - I wish we could save them all.
We have an all black stray with half an ear that comes around, when my husband isn't paying attention I leave some food and water off of our back patio for him. The other day I went to let the dog out and there was a mouse laying on the welcome mat. A thank you, maybe?
Wait!!! Jar looks like Janet Reno? Thats not good! LOL!!! Yuck! LOL!!! Gotta laugh. All this Jughead, I mean Jarhead talk has made me crave a good comic book!! Cuz the stories here are just waaay too hilarious!! Eh girls?
And Jug, I mean Jar...you explain too much. My father was Marine, her was at the Battle Of Midway. I mean no offense. But my father wouldnt have the time of day for a bunch of hens cackling much less explain himself to anyone. He was Marine, that was enough. No explanations necessary. A mans man. A straight answer, just the facts Joe Gannon kind of man. No fabulous exploits explained. The hell he went thru almost made him NOT want to talk about it. Ya know? & you talk & explain like I do!! LOL!!! And I'm a blabber mouth. Jar, whoever you are? Just keep on typing, I am getting some good stuff with every post!! LMAO!!! Rox
And even Cosmo says to watch out for any man that "over-explains"...cuz no guy will feel the need to do that unless he's making it up as he goes along, like a story. No guy is gonna tell you WTH kind of tea & cheese he had on a damn plane ride, he wouldn't remember the movie cuz he would be sleeping or drunk and he sure as hell wouldn't remember what someone else had! Cuz guess what? Guys don't give a sh** about that stuff. On plane-off plane. Thats about all you would hear from most guys. Guys are sooo NOT detail oriented. Jar, I bet you read Cosmo on all those plane rides too huh? Isn't it great??? Don't you just love the Sex Quizes?? LOL
Kudos to your Dad. Midway really was the Alamo of the Pacific.
I like it here. I don't post anywhere else on the net and originally started posting after the Graziano accident. I felt for him as another Marine. I also read Russian novels and other sensitive authors like Gustave Flaubert because they write about human character and emotion. Love and consequences of love.
How nothing has changed in thousands of years. Homer's "Where shall a man find sweetness to surpass his home and family" is still the raw emotion we feel when just about all is gone and we want to be somewhere safe. I'm sure your Dad felt that way, even if he didn't say it. We all did.
I learned to love and be intimate in a real Platonic sense through my own bad experiences. People here asked me what it's like to kill someone. I did not answer because it's a thought that never leaves and swims under every emotion of every action of the day. WW2 vets did not have the Psych rehab we enjoy now.
i don't suffer anyone's feelings. Knock yourself out typing 'cause I enjoy it too. I'm retired now.
Tia...my daughters fiance' is Greek. Maybe you can tell from his face. He's handsome & dark & tall 6-4. & Greek. So, we could totally be realted! LOL!!! Naw, I am Irish, Scotch, French & English. Thats it. My dad was 1/2 Irish & 1/2 Scotch, so I am alot Irish. My kids are named Casey & Kelly & my daughter was born on St. Pattys Day? Coincidenc? I think not. And my last name is that of a famous Irish beer! & the same name as the 1st serial killers in America. Those guys had no soul and killed at will, just for the hell of it. Its actually on my husbands side. They were on the side Of King George after the Revolutionary War & they didn't care who they killed. Back then , there was almost no law & Illinois & KY were the wilderness. It's a great read. I stumbled upon by Accident while reading "Murder In Little Egypt."(true story) & true story about the murderous Scottish brothers serial killers. Look it up! Murders are my favorite stories!!! By far. I digress...now what were we talking about??? LOL
i've seen your daughter's fiancee and he DOES look greek!! you can certainly tell, most of the time, people's heritage from their looks---though not all the time.....
i agree rox, that it seems very unmarinelike to discuss chocolate and cheese and wedding arrangements.....maybe jar can help ya with your wedding!! you need help with that girl!
some men are more feminine though....but i think the anon (who doesn't seem to be trolling IMHO) has a few points....
i am impressed that someone with no cat knowledge knew all that about a stray....julio isn't 6 weeks old though....definitely about a year old....
oh dear....kiki didn't come back after her tea and crumpets....coffee and cake i mean.....hope she is okay.....
Hey Don Corleon'e was from Sicily. Always referred to his family as being "Sicilian"...he never said "Italian"...huge difference. Even some of the dialect & foods are variations. I am sure it's like in the south, they call things a different name than us northereners do and serve food made a different way, its the same yet its different. A total cultural thing & like serving iced sweet tea with a meal, you know that person is from the deep south!! The same ladies that make their own mayonaise. This of which I know much, as my mothers family is all from Augusta, GA.
Nobody better be faking being me!!! Nobody is a smartass like me! Yea, I said it...what? LOL! Fake Rox???? Gawd, that would be sooo easy to spot. You can't fake who you are, even on here. Eventually somethings slips or your punctuation would give you away. Something, just like in a murder trial, the conspiracy always gets found out!!! All the accomplaces are busted. A good murder trial, dayum, thats a great way to end a story. Like on "Witness For The Prosecution"...Charles Laughten. Fat, great actor. Loved that movie. hey Jar, maybe they showed that one on a plane ride you were on, its from the 1940's. I mean , if your plane was an old plane, it could happen. rox
Wow. I'm well travelled, well educated and like cheese and chocolate. I like to read and get sentimental about pain and suffering; kinda like a Mom I guess. I also express myself freely here because of the anonymity at first. I could feel vulnerable and not show my face. That is all.
OMG! Old plane, only shows really old movies. The "Stewardess" are all perfect little ladies in longish skirts and little caps tipped to one side and a perfect smile along with the "Coffee, Tea, cigarettes"? (No gay stews, grabbing beers and jumping down the emergency shoot! Only genteel ladies, poised & almost robotic.) Cuz we all know back then you could smoke on a plane.You could smoke anyplace you wanted to. And then when you land you are at LaGuardia, and he's mayor of NYC! Fiorello Henry La Guardia, mayor from 1931-1945. You are lost in a time warp, only Tim Curry isn't there. Damn, thats no fun!!
angie....rox isn't a faker!!! but there's a couple foxes in the hen house!
oh....totally off topic but i wanna remember to tell you kiki, because this is so wrong and i want all the ladies to know how messed up this is and you're being used!!! i love tall ships and wanna see 'em when they hit cleveland and that pix you took of cj's shit in toronto? it's on wikipedia!!! someone stole your picture and put it on wikipedia!! and they even claim it was taken on lake erie! girl, you better get on wiki's ass about that!!!! that's so wrong!!!!!! get your photo credit kiki!!!!
good morning y'all!!! took a sip of coffee and feel more human! :)
Jarhead, re: kitty, I guess I need to get the 2x4 unstuck from my ass. You and your friend are doing good to the kitty and that's what's important. He now has a loving home and is healthy and taken care of! Sorry to be such a PITA!
Well, then it sounds as though you are borderline insulting Jarhead and that's not cool. What I like about this blog is that we are all different and yet, enjoy chatting, so let's be nice :)
jar....perhaps anon was being stereotypical, and perhaps some of us ladies are too, but you have to admit it is rather unmarine and unmanly to be posting here a lot and asking questions about wedding plans....and to always know exactly the same obscure quote kiki is quoting and the same languages....
i am sure you can understand that and understand our jesting....
if you feel vulnerable and won't show your face you could always post a pix of jake gyllenhyn [how the fuck does he spell his last name???] from that movie where he played a marine!
Wyatt Earp changed his name from the infamous name of his ancestors, the murderous brothers! It still sounds similar but different. So, my kids are related to Wyatt Earp. We had to trace it down. It's not official documents, so don't ask me that. But he had th same name from the same area of the US at the time of their ancestors. So, we just like to say he was related. & very well was.
I'll send you a picture of my buddy pushing his hemorrhoids back in his butt if you'd like a little more Marine Corp. Ha.
Newsflash. All of us cry. I made a decision to live my life whichever way it fulfills me most.
In my case, being with my family, living off the grid, working with vets and being supportive to anyone is exactly what I want to do. I come here because this is new to me.
I learned to love while I was alone because I missed the true intimacy I wasted in past relationships. Almost dying made me want to live as best I could.
No comment here is going to change my mind. I correspond with kiki privately about other issues as well. No hate left in me.
yeah rox...it was the exact same pix, she needs to get on wiki's ass and claim credit!!!! that's so wrong someone stole a pix and claimed it was theirs!
& Jar, no rectum pics please. Again, thats so "unMarine" to even suggest. My father was the ultimate gentleman & very respectful. But he wouldnt bother some of this with a reply. In fact he woulnd't have even sought this site out. I cannot compare you to him. He was assigned very top secret missions but he never discussed it. I didn't even know about it till just before he passed away. I would have loved to talked more about his military career but I was too young to be interested and to be honest, he just didn't discuss it. Like most men, he wasn't talky or chatty. But he sang me a cowboy song he read from a Japanese songbook! & yes he could write in Japanese as well. Had to learn, as he was stationed there for 7 years. I am pretty sure I probably have some 1/2 siblings in Japan!! 7 years? I mean c'mon!! Yet, never would have heard any tales about tail either, or rectum. He would have punched you for saying that! Respect your branch bro!!
The Niagara is coming home in several weeks and bringing other Tall Ships with it. I'll send DD pics of all the tall ships in the harbor. They are so majestic, love it when they do the cannon salute when they enter the bay.
Hey Tia, Don't you understand anything? Anybody can swipe (copy & Paste or "save as") anything & claim it to be theirs. Including & esp pics!!! I could post a pic of Audrey Hepburn as myself and who the hell would know it wasn't real? LOL!!! Duh! Everybody!! Wiki doesnt give a ship who steals pics and if they post a swiped pic, it's their own mistake I visa-versa. I would be raising some he** too. But Wiki has been known to be very presumptuous and often jumps the gun & makes mistakes. So, we all do it. Its too easy to do. You know that girl. You just gotta do your research! Now do we all understand that pics can be fakes, swiped from someones FB wall or a website? Yea...thats right. I figured. We ALL know. Don't make me 'splain again! FAKES!!!! Love ya!! eh?? hehehe
well rox i just believe the best of people....it just shocked me to see that kiki's pix had ended up on wiki! i hope she raises hell about that! stealing pix like that is so wrong!
I would also like to believe the best in people but not anymore. I do not trust many people nowdays. Sadly, with good reason. I have been lied to alot in my life and it does cause you to doubt things. Esp now with online personas, gawd! We could ALL be fakers!!! I just want you all to know that I have NEVER sent DD a fake pic, not of my dogs or my gardens or my children. I have a FB & they are all on there as well. All mine. Some of my friends on here are my friends there and we enjoy a chat on occasion. And we have a laugh or 2 while we are at it. I really care about my friends on here and would NEVER even think of faking a pic. Whats the point???
Sorry rox, but I don't have to "get in the loop" to recognize rudeness when I see it. You are all over the board and I'm wondering if something is wrong with you.
Yes, Tia I AM on Facebook, are you saying you have a special group for DD people? That's cool :)
yeah....search for 'fans of DD'....i have to approve membership....and/or send me a private message on facebook....you can find me http://www.facebook.com/misstia my user name is tia windsor on face book and my icon is a gold kitty, mortimore.....
Angie, I am NOT being rude at all but you NEED to get in the loop. We need to find a way to get the info to you so you can find DD`s FB page.
I post the same damn pics on my FB page that I do on here. So if I am lying to you all, then I am lying to my kids, my inlaws, my family, and my close friends too.
Miss Tia Im going to send you an email that will explain what I do privately and put you in the picture persay. Please stay tuned.
Enrique you already know exactly what I'm talking about. And yes we do exist we are nit the same person I am Kiki he is jarhead two separate individuals not the same posters. We are friends who have been speaking privately for 7 months and I can vouch for him. I never said he looks like Janet Reno ( female politician )i said Jean Reno the male actor.
I spent 1/2 the night talking to my neighbour Valerie and indulging in too much cake. Sorry I didnot make it back till now but I went for my run later than ususal and I'm a few hours off on my daily routine to say the least.
OMG! kiki...I cannot believe you actually thot I meant that he looked like Janet Reno, sarcasm??? altho...she doesn't look like any woman I have ever seen...so...
Rox I am one of those weird rare weirdos that do not know when where what sarcasm is. I agree with you that Ms. Reno is rather manly and tall & could pass for marine anyday ofvthd week! That's for sure ! No offence taking with the mix up It's me Rox I just don't understand sarcasm. Usually people have to point it out to me after the fact and Im a bit gulliballe as well it my minor Achilles heel persay but my major Achilles heel is my actual Damn left foots Achilles heel. I have had it for years and I overran it's patience this morning due to overeating all the cakes last night. -Kiki :]
No need to over explain so much Kiki...just like Jar does. It's sooo not necessary. Just forget it. I am not a bade person, I do say things on here that woulnd't leave my lips in person tho. I feel a bit more free to express myself. So, sarcasm away!!
rox And Tia, I believe Janet Reno WAS a Marine at one time! LOL...JK...
And another thing Charles Boyer? Really? He's NOT even good looking, not to me anyways. He was a short,balding older guy, looked like Fred Mertz to me. & Janet Reno & Freddy Mertz together! OMG. LMAO!!! I am afraid I wouldn't consider being compared to Charles Boyer a compliment at any time. But thats me. Fred was funny tho! What ARE we talking about on here anyways???? This is it for me. I am over it. ta-ta
Oh. My. Gosh. What a post. Well, I think of Jarhead exactly as he presents himself. We're all different, and servicemen and veterans come in all shapes, sizes, and attitudes, as well. My father was in the service, and was a very sensitive sort. He was army, and served in the South Pacific. My cousin's husband was a nice guy and served in Vietnam for a number of tours of duty. I run into servicemen home for their wife's delivery occasionally, and some talk about what they do and where they have been and others don't. I also work with an anesthetist who was in Vietnam, and he is one of the sweetest, kindest men I know. He always says it was the love and patience of a good woman that brought him to the place he is, mentally and emotionally. I like what Jarhead brings to this blog. He brings a different viewpoint, and I do not for a moment doubt that he is exactly as he presents himself. Just for the record, everything I have said about myself, my family, my work, the pictures, etc. is all mine and 100% true. I married my husband for some of the same qualities that Jarhead reveals about himself, here, as well as others. He is a very sweet man, too, and I know he treasures me. It sounds sappy, but tonight when I got home from work, he took me by the hand, and led me to a little pastry he had bought for me. He insisted I sit down and referred to me as his "queen" while kissing my hand. (We have been married for 21 years.) There are nice guys around, who really don't mind keeping women company, or listening to what we have to say.
Christina, You have got the real deal!! And for that matter so does he. Leading you by the hand to the pastry says it all. 21 yrs with at least 21 more to go! I like hearing about the really loving marriages. IMO, nothing more lucky can happen in one's life.
I always think of that Led Zeppelin line; "mellow is the man who knows what he's been missing".-
Thanks Merette,
I emailed Pat a better picture of Julio today. This time I pulled out a T-square to give some scale to his size. He looked a little big in this picture, but you can see he has a small head still.
I'll find out what the vet says, but he is definitely eating better than he was just a five weeks ago.
Jarhead sent us this photo of Julio, the kitten he rescued. Aww, he looks like a lover, doesn't he? I keep hearing " ♫ Me and Julio down by the schoolyard. ♫" Welcome back, Jarhead, we missed you.

He's very handsome, Jarhead :) I like how his eyes are rimmed with white. For being wormy, he sure looks like a healthy kit now :)
Awe, how sweet. It's so good to finally hear from Jar. I always enjoy reading his comments.
Don't stay away too long this time around.
~Palmetto Girl
Thanks!
I never had a cat before, but he won me over from the start. He looked like he was lost and drank a lot of water as soon as I put some down.
There is a Bombay cat near here with bright yellow eyes that I always liked. Maybe I'll find a rescue mate for Julio.
Thanks again, I'll tell him he is popular and an internet star already.
Jarhead
looks about a year old....too bad you were cut out of the picture!
Ditto what Miss Tia said.
I will have to email a pic of Oliver. He is about the same size and he turned a year in June.
Stripey too but darker.
I was gonna say! looks too big for a 2-3 month old kitten. Cute green tabby kitty nonetheless! He doesn't look very impressed being held :)
How's about you post the rest of that pic, Jarhead? The suspense is oh, not so nice.
He is gorgeous. I love cats.
I love a gray tabby. What a cutie!
I was so glad to see your comment today on the Michelle post, Jarhead. I left you a message there before I saw this one. Well, from all those comments I guess it is unanimous - You have been missed :)
Julio just looks excellent with bright eyes and beautiful coat. It must feel good to have saved his life! I definitely vote for a rescue mate to hang with.
That was weird when that person pretended to be Jarhead. What kind of jerk would do a thing like that? Pretend to be someone they're not just to mess with people?
i agree crabbie...people who fake being other people have serious mental problems....not only do they wrongly string people along, but it's just so manipulative....
Big cat! Looks pretty healthy to me! its a miracle!!!
rox
Its strickly for the attention. It's a desperate form of self-love/gratification. Ends up going exactly, no place!!
rox
Hey!!!! Who pretended to be Jarhead??? Wow! What happened? Thats f'g weird. Weird-o!!! Maybe Jar pretended to be Jar?
There was a fake Jarhead while I was gone?-
JArhead
It was the real one and only Enrique / jar
no one is pretending to be anyone.
I recieved the exact same pic this morning
from him this morning along with Pat /DD.
Enrique please if you can post your photo
so they can all see how handsome you are.
IMO Enrique / jarhead looks like 2 movie
stars /leading men in Hollywood of the era
of glam and the new modern action hero.
That being said Enrique has a remarkable
resembelance to legendary French thespian
Charles Boyer ( only much taller & Spanish )
with a subtle hint of a young Jean Reno.
-Kiki :)
How do we know a fake Crabbie didn't leave that comment about the fake Jarhead????
Welcome back Jarhead!!!! Man, that must have been some mission you were on!!! I guess that's just another one of the stories you will have to tell us one of these days! Glad to see you have a friend! Welcome Julio!!!
jar---there was a fake jarhead whilst you were gone....posted some comment that he had missed us bitches....very unlike your postings....
people impersonating other peoples are seriously messed up....
Yup. There was a fake jarhead but they left when we called them on it. Kiki, you probably didn't see it cause it was when you were upset and not online. People who fake personas have a special place in Helll. So jar, is Julio fixed yet? I always fix my animals. Especially the boy cars.. They tend to spray.
Cats not cars... Stupid auto spellcheck
LMAO! "stupid auto spellcheck!" !!!! yep...auto spell check will replace cat with car!!!
but you're right....fake jar was when kiki wasn't posting on this site for awhile....
Lol.. I am using hubs iTouch and it would not even let me spell hellll. Prudish thing. Let me try a real swear. Fuck ...oh let me type that. I must pay attention or it will substitute.
Wasn't Charles Boyer in Gaslight? When I think someone is pulling my leg... I ask them if they are "gaslighting" me. Great movie. Must see if you never have.
i agree, gaslight was a great movie...and i've used the term 'gaslighting' too!!!
gaslighters should DIAF!
How's everything Jane?.
What a creep to say things like that to get kicks.
Julio will be neutered next week. I don't want to declaw him though.
kiki, I watched "The Big Blue" on the plane- and had some really good green and black tea that the Nords brought with them. I ate so much cheese of all kinds and way too much chocolate. Aside from that it was a big starefest.
We sat across from each other at a table and waited for the answers to magically appear. When nothing happened; we decided to get back together in a few weeks. It was like marriage counseling without the finger pointing.
Angie, is that your cat on the pic?. I'm really liking the Bombay cats the more I read about them.
Jarhead
isn't the big blue a rather 'old' movie to show on a plane? wasn't that late 80s? i thought planes showed new movies? i admit i am plane movie ignorant....
hi Misstia,
I watch it on my computer on long trips because the movie is so long and the water images are nice. When kiki saw my picture and mentioned Jean Reno I mentioned to her that I had seen him in the movie. Apocalypse Now is the other movie I bring along and watch to kill time. I don't even bother with movies on the plane.
Jarhead
never ever heard of jean reno! it's always amazed me how you and kiki are so alike!
someone i had a class with had a little laptop that had like a 6 hour battery and they would watch movies on it on planes.....much cheaper than paying for movies on the plane!
Miss Tia what is diaf ?
Yes you're right I didn't even know that there
was a fake jarhead. Omg ! How rude !!!!
You can chose from a variety of movies and
tv programs on flights nowadays on your own
personal monitor usually built into the back of
the seat in front of yours.
Enrique I think you'd better let these patient
ladies and one Crabbie finally see you. Come
on bayou Jane has been waiting long enough !
Yes Charles Boyer played Ingrid Bergman s
husband in Gaslight. But I'm sure Enrique is
much taller than Mr. Boyer. From his pic he
has that TD& H ( tall dark & handsome ) thing
down pat with a wimsy of a younger Jean Reno.
Jean Reno s most recent movie was in 2010
as the guru in Couples Retreat. After you all
get to see Enrique you will say that he could
pass for a French man easily with his gr8 looks.
-Kiki :)
All this cat talk is making me think of breakiing out the cat nip. I gotta find it. Nothing more entertaining then a high cat.
it is more than rude to pretend you are someone else or to purposely lie about your life online....peoples don't have to share their life and can only relieve what they wish, but to flat out lie?! inexcusable....
us ladies are too smart and savvy to fall for that....
heidi your mention of cat nip reminded me i bought some roast beef for the critters!!
Miss Tia I agree with you. We are alike.
I remember a few months ago when he told
me that he & I look alike. He's right we do
only I'm much smaller and shorter of course.
In January when DD posted my pix Rox thought
I looked just like her daughter and later when
Kelly s engagement pix was posted I agreed.
I guess it's all to do with the European derivations
in our backgrounds. I'm half Italian & irish.
Jarhead is of Spanish ancestry. Close enuf eh ?
You can see for yourself when his pix goes up.
-Kiki :)
when did DD post your picture in January? i don't recall that but i was dealing with my neighbor's sudden passing....
i found it....you don't look italian or irish though....maybe you had dyed your hair blond....
Kiki and I do look alike. I'll send Pat a picture of me. But I'd rather she wait until I finish working before she puts it online.
I am 5'11''. 185 pounds, and a terrible painter and singer. I'm huge in Japan though.
Heidi, Julio got some cat nip today for the first time and loved it of course.
Jarhead
Tia I do highlight my hair. My family goes back
to the 2 Rogers ( the first & second ) both of the
island nation of Sicily. At one time long ago Sicily
ruled all of Italy under the Norman's conquest.
-Kiki :)
Tia, Jean Reno was 'Leon' in "The Professional". Natalie Portman was the little 12 year old orphan who tagged along with him.
I agree about the impersonators. I don't think it's cool when people make up lies about their life just to seem relevant. I learned to smell that BS after busting my ex-boyfriend's lies about his life. When I spot that BS I just try to ignore the person, not even worth my time. They can live in their own widdle fantasy world for all I care, I won't be dragged in it with them.
B. Jane, I'm sure that was the 'real' Crabbie :)
miss tia ~ agree totally about people lying and pretending online. No one is impressed & it just ticks everyone off.
Heidi ~ when we had our cat (looked similar to Jar's, only a Polydactyl) I would give him catnip as a learning tool for my kids.... Don't use drugs, Cat on drugs. Funniest damn thing to watch.
no clue who the 'rogers' are.....but i don't think you look italian at all or irish...perhaps i am stereotyping....i do look greek though.....
meissa, i agree with you except that those scumbag's little fantasies usually entrap good people and they end up feeling used and abused....i agree with ignoring them but if they keep it up, i think eventually they need to be called out....
I'm 111 pounds & 5 ' 3 inches tall and can
paint and do sing alto soprano. Haha LoL
at your I'm big in japan joke jarhead. That's a
good one in case it went over anyone here's
head. He was making a joke. And yes we do look
alot alike. Only I'm a lil bit cuter than you are
Enrique if I do say so myself. LoL ;-)) -Kiki
i do believe most of us here got the big in japan joke....
it really amazes how alike you and jar are....almost like you're 'jarki'....
Tia, I try to ignore for the most part, but inside I'm just dying to let them have it ;). I do when it gets to that point though. You're right, they do take advantage of people who are clueless....
dayum, my sides hurt.
Tia I don't know who they are other than some
olde Norman dudes who where all gung ho with
aquirering and aquisitioning or whatever the
hell those olde Norman dudes called it in
those days ( conquering ) or something similar
to that. Sicily is a nice island on the tyrennian sea
& it's just like in the olde days if you get what I mean
by this next sentence. To quote the Who.
" meet the new boss same as the olde boss !"
I'm sure you understand what I mean by the use
of the word " boss." And I'm not talking about the
former Rogers 1&2 of the Norman family.
-Kiki :)
ps
Geneology is a lil hobby I used to do.
sorry to hear that CJ...
meissa, i again agree, taking advantage of others is so wrong....it's like being a psychic vampire....preying on good hearted peoples.....
Tia lol jarki hahaha !!!
How about this one ?
N-Ri-Ki-Ki ?!
-Kiki ;-))
isn't it true that sicilians don't like to be known as italian? i knew an sicilian barber who had served under mussolini and he HATED being called italian....HATED IT...he had pictures of mussolini and the pope on his walls still....
i knew another kid in school who was sicilian and he too hated being called italian....
it probably would be interesting if you could trace your geneology back that far if you could tie into history and know who those roger dudes were...would be a great document for your kids and grandkids!!
i bet you and jar are related on that family tree! celebrity name for ya is definitely gonna be jarki! :) ♥
I agree with you 100% !!!!!!!!!!!
They do hate it ! My mother never stops
yapping ant chance she gets at the great
fascist Mussolini " il Capo " which translates
into " the Boss ! " tooooooo true Tia :)
I sent you a pix I just took a clear one for you
to see without all that suntan dark skin I had
in January. Check your email soon. -Kiki :)
ps
I prefer N-Ri -Ki -Ki better than jarki even though
it's a pain in the arse to spell it out with all those
damn hyphens et al. LoL besides jarki sounds
like jerky as in beef jerky to me LOL nowy
sides hurt too C J :-))))) lol !!! - Kiki
well now i'm confused, are you italian or sicilian?
i'll go check my email....
I consider myself a Siciliana and also
Irish too 1/2 & 1/2 pasta & potatoes !!
-Kiki ;-))
My gfather lived in rome in his later years. He was Italian. I think you are right about Sicilians Tia.
It would be like calling a Canadian an American.. Just because the countries are close together.
Cats on nip is free entertainment.
Poor Julio will be a non Julio before you know it. Surprised the vet will fix so early. It will knock the piss and vinegar out of him.
some places do fix critters awfully early.....but the kitty in in the pix isn't a 6 week old kitty....he looks about a year old, so it's okay to fix 'em!
oh that would make a canadian mad to call 'em americans!!! good point heidi!
Mama Mia what's a matta you fuggett about
it dat I'm also a live on Canada people ?!
Eh ?!!!!
- Signora Kiki ;)
Next week is his first vet visit. He will be neutered whenever the Dr says it's ok. I've never shared space with a cat before so I'm unfamiliar with cat issues. I love how lazy and un-catlike he is though.
kiki is the perfect name for you. (For all the right reasons, ha, ha)
Quique (kike) is short for all Enrique's.
Jarhead
Jarhead, that is my cat Millhouse. I have another named Myles that looks very much like Julio. They are ridiculously lazy and entitled animals...LOL
Heidi ~ Julio is going to be a Julia when the vet gets done.
My MIL was Sicilian, but would tell everyone she was Italian. Almost every 'Italian' in the town I grew up in was Sicilian, except for a few families from Naples. At the time they came to this country the Irish moved up one step on the ladder and the Italians went to the bottom. The Scilians were considered a step below the Italians. She would be adamant about not being Sicilian. Most came to my town in the late 1800s to very early 1900s to work on the railroad.
he hasn't gone to the vet yet? i thought he was really ill when you got him? i don't know how you got 'em back to health w/o know about nuttin' bout birthing no babies...i mean cat issues...haha...gone with the wind reference....
jar....i think kiki might find it offensive your reference to her name! did you know in tagalong kiki means vagina? in hawaiian it means barking....and in the urban dictionary it means shallow....were you calling her an shallow barking vagina?! haha!
I would have taken him to the vet first thing if I found a sickly kitten.....it just makes sense to do it.
who took care of the kitty while you were away??
Enrique please do not say what u call me in
the Mayan dialect. I've heard enough from Tia
tonight tooooooo much basta !!! Basta !!! -Kiki
miss tia ~ I have to give myself a shot (injection) in a few minutes. It's going to be hard when I'm laughing & the sides still hurt!!
Kiki ~ Am I a Canadian also? I can trace one side of my family to the mid 1600s in Ontario - Lennox & Addington township. Probably still some distant cousin there. My relative left there in 1855 but my g-grandparents went back for 10 years in 1890.
ooo...another link! jar and kiki both know mayan! see, jarki sticks!!! it's almost like you guys are the same person you are so similar!!
on my psycho mother's side i can trace back to the hugonots [sic] fleeing france....they went to canada change the name to hugunin and then migrated to america.....of course on my father's side....greek....
Miss Tia there is a kinship somewhere in
the midst of all of this I'm certain. -Kiki :)
My gf Valerie has invited me over coffee & cake
@ 10 so I will go now but I will be back online
in an 1&1/2 hour or so. Talk to you all later.-Kiki :)
i'll be in bed by then! enjoy your coffee cake!!
i have no doubt there's a kinship! :)
misstia,
I found him the morning before I left when I was looking for the owls one last time. He came right up to me and looked dirty and thin. I brought him in and cleaned him and gave him water. Noticed the worm problem and called a friend of mine that has cats and lives on a ranch near by. She also bakes delicious pies I've mentioned here before.
She dewormed him and took care of him until I got back. He looks fine to me so i couldn't justify emergency room vet visit.
Nice cat Angie. Have fun kiki, sounds delicious.
Jarhead
now i want cake...whenever i eat cake i wonder if it's because i might be a long lost relative of marie antoinette's.....
well see jar...you must know something about cats since you noticed he had worms! you aren't a cat-tard! (i called myself a dog-tard when i got Molly because i didn't know much about dogs!!)....
Thanks Tia & Enrique I will
TTYL
-Kiki
:)
cat-tard...lmao!
Jarhead, sorry to be a pain in your ass, but the first thing I would do if I found a critter in the conditions you describe (which are awful) I would be taking it to the vet first thing. The emergency visit is 100% justified in that case. I commend you for rescuing the furball, it's nice to hear there are still compassionate people out there. Of course the cat looks fine now, your friend did good while you were away!
Sometimes vets cover costs if the cats are strays, provided they participate in the local trap-neuter-return program with the shelter. They also help the local shelters find homes for the critters, and cover a good percentage of the neutering and vaccines with the shelter's adoption fees. I know our vet covers the cost of surgeries and treatment when people bring in animals they have found that have had accidents...my in-laws cats are mostly cats that have been dropped at the vet with broken legs, hips, etc...and the vet covered their surgery/treatment...my in laws used to be foster kitty parents but the kitties never left :)
So Yah,,,I have a really important job doing IT around the world so I am like a really wealthy dude who spends his time talking to a bunch of Hyena's on a blog when I am home b/c like I have nothing better to do?? Really come on guys you really think this dude does what he does but then when he is home FINALLY he sits on here and talks his nights/days away with you chicks? You all crack me up...Even when "he" came back it was I want to know how so and so's illness is, how so and so got away from her abusive husband how so and so got a new face....What MAN does that???? You guys crack me up.
Oh. I guess the troll is back. :::::snoring:::::
Heidi---I feel your pain about spell check on Apple products. I was trying to type "asshat" in a post, and it came up with the word "sashays" instead. Cracked me up. It did not want to let me circumvent its manner/etiquette/prude controls, either.
Julio is adorable, and what a kind thing you did by rescuing the little guy. I am haunted by a little kitten (feral, I'm sure) that I saw when I was on my lunch from picking berries when I was in my early teens. The little kitty was in poor shape and was crying at me from inside a blackberry patch. He was too quick, and I couldn't catch him. I would have loved to take him home and take care of him. You did a good thing. He looks healthy as can be---beautiful coat and bright eyes. Your friend knew what she was doing.
No Christina not a troll just someone stating the facts!!
hi Meissa,
Julio was dehydrated and had obvious tapeworms, but was responsive and playful once he had water and rest. His eyes and teeth looked fine, as did his coat once I bathed him, so Lisa (my friend that watched him)-agreed that he was ok. We doctor animals at the ranch all the time and none of us felt an urgency about him.
The troll sounds like so many Mosque leaders in Iraq when they do call to prayer and start insulting Americans and calling us "hyenas", just like this guy. And they hide when they do it as well. They smile at the market and say "Shukran", and then take a shot from behind a wall.
Jarhead
Welcome back Jarhead!
Julio is absolutely precious, looks like he is very happy to have been found. I think you should rescue the Bombay. If we had the means & space, our house would be a zoo, I'm one of those - I wish we could save them all.
We have an all black stray with half an ear that comes around, when my husband isn't paying attention I leave some food and water off of our back patio for him. The other day I went to let the dog out and there was a mouse laying on the welcome mat. A thank you, maybe?
Wait!!! Jar looks like Janet Reno? Thats not good! LOL!!! Yuck! LOL!!! Gotta laugh. All this Jughead, I mean Jarhead talk has made me crave a good comic book!! Cuz the stories here are just waaay too hilarious!! Eh girls?
And Jug, I mean Jar...you explain too much. My father was Marine, her was at the Battle Of Midway. I mean no offense. But my father wouldnt have the time of day for a bunch of hens cackling much less explain himself to anyone. He was Marine, that was enough. No explanations necessary. A mans man. A straight answer, just the facts Joe Gannon kind of man. No fabulous exploits explained. The hell he went thru almost made him NOT want to talk about it. Ya know? & you talk & explain like I do!! LOL!!! And I'm a blabber mouth. Jar, whoever you are? Just keep on typing, I am getting some good stuff with every post!! LMAO!!!
Rox
WTH is wrong with the spelling on here? I apologize for the errors everyone. Almost makes a nonsense comment from a rational one! :(
And even Cosmo says to watch out for any man that "over-explains"...cuz no guy will feel the need to do that unless he's making it up as he goes along, like a story. No guy is gonna tell you WTH kind of tea & cheese he had on a damn plane ride, he wouldn't remember the movie cuz he would be sleeping or drunk and he sure as hell wouldn't remember what someone else had! Cuz guess what? Guys don't give a sh** about that stuff. On plane-off plane. Thats about all you would hear from most guys. Guys are sooo NOT detail oriented. Jar, I bet you read Cosmo on all those plane rides too huh? Isn't it great??? Don't you just love the Sex Quizes?? LOL
rox
Kudos to your Dad. Midway really was the Alamo of the Pacific.
I like it here. I don't post anywhere else on the net and originally started posting after the Graziano accident. I felt for him as another Marine. I also read Russian novels and other sensitive authors like Gustave Flaubert because they write about human character and emotion. Love and consequences of love.
How nothing has changed in thousands of years. Homer's "Where shall a man find sweetness to surpass his home and family" is still the raw emotion we feel when just about all is gone and we want to be somewhere safe. I'm sure your Dad felt that way, even if he didn't say it. We all did.
I learned to love and be intimate in a real Platonic sense through my own bad experiences. People here asked me what it's like to kill someone. I did not answer because it's a thought that never leaves and swims under every emotion of every action of the day. WW2 vets did not have the Psych rehab we enjoy now.
i don't suffer anyone's feelings. Knock yourself out typing 'cause I enjoy it too. I'm retired now.
Jarhead
Tia...my daughters fiance' is Greek. Maybe you can tell from his face. He's handsome & dark & tall 6-4. & Greek. So, we could totally be realted! LOL!!!
Naw, I am Irish, Scotch, French & English. Thats it. My dad was 1/2 Irish & 1/2 Scotch, so I am alot Irish. My kids are named Casey & Kelly & my daughter was born on St. Pattys Day? Coincidenc? I think not. And my last name is that of a famous Irish beer! & the same name as the 1st serial killers in America. Those guys had no soul and killed at will, just for the hell of it. Its actually on my husbands side. They were on the side Of King George after the Revolutionary War & they didn't care who they killed. Back then , there was almost no law & Illinois & KY were the wilderness. It's a great read. I stumbled upon by Accident while reading "Murder In Little Egypt."(true story) & true story about the murderous Scottish brothers serial killers. Look it up! Murders are my favorite stories!!! By far. I digress...now what were we talking about??? LOL
rox
I'm confused here, is there someone pretending to be rox or is she insinuating that Jarhead is a faker?
i've seen your daughter's fiancee and he DOES look greek!! you can certainly tell, most of the time, people's heritage from their looks---though not all the time.....
i agree rox, that it seems very unmarinelike to discuss chocolate and cheese and wedding arrangements.....maybe jar can help ya with your wedding!! you need help with that girl!
some men are more feminine though....but i think the anon (who doesn't seem to be trolling IMHO) has a few points....
i am impressed that someone with no cat knowledge knew all that about a stray....julio isn't 6 weeks old though....definitely about a year old....
oh dear....kiki didn't come back after her tea and crumpets....coffee and cake i mean.....hope she is okay.....
Hey Don Corleon'e was from Sicily. Always referred to his family as being "Sicilian"...he never said "Italian"...huge difference. Even some of the dialect & foods are variations. I am sure it's like in the south, they call things a different name than us northereners do and serve food made a different way, its the same yet its different. A total cultural thing & like serving iced sweet tea with a meal, you know that person is from the deep south!! The same ladies that make their own mayonaise. This of which I know much, as my mothers family is all from Augusta, GA.
rox
Angie,
Rox is Rox.
Nobody better be faking being me!!! Nobody is a smartass like me! Yea, I said it...what? LOL!
Fake Rox???? Gawd, that would be sooo easy to spot. You can't fake who you are, even on here. Eventually somethings slips or your punctuation would give you away. Something, just like in a murder trial, the conspiracy always gets found out!!! All the accomplaces are busted. A good murder trial, dayum, thats a great way to end a story. Like on "Witness For The Prosecution"...Charles Laughten. Fat, great actor. Loved that movie. hey Jar, maybe they showed that one on a plane ride you were on, its from the 1940's. I mean , if your plane was an old plane, it could happen.
rox
Wow. I'm well travelled, well educated and like cheese and chocolate. I like to read and get sentimental about pain and suffering; kinda like a Mom I guess. I also express myself freely here because of the anonymity at first. I could feel vulnerable and not show my face. That is all.
No conspiracy here ladies, sorry.
Jarhead
OMG! Old plane, only shows really old movies. The "Stewardess" are all perfect little ladies in longish skirts and little caps tipped to one side and a perfect smile along with the "Coffee, Tea, cigarettes"? (No gay stews, grabbing beers and jumping down the emergency shoot! Only genteel ladies, poised & almost robotic.) Cuz we all know back then you could smoke on a plane.You could smoke anyplace you wanted to. And then when you land you are at LaGuardia, and he's mayor of NYC! Fiorello Henry La Guardia, mayor from 1931-1945. You are lost in a time warp, only Tim Curry isn't there. Damn, thats no fun!!
rox
angie....rox isn't a faker!!! but there's a couple foxes in the hen house!
oh....totally off topic but i wanna remember to tell you kiki, because this is so wrong and i want all the ladies to know how messed up this is and you're being used!!! i love tall ships and wanna see 'em when they hit cleveland and that pix you took of cj's shit in toronto? it's on wikipedia!!! someone stole your picture and put it on wikipedia!! and they even claim it was taken on lake erie! girl, you better get on wiki's ass about that!!!! that's so wrong!!!!!! get your photo credit kiki!!!!
good morning y'all!!! took a sip of coffee and feel more human! :)
Jarhead, re: kitty, I guess I need to get the 2x4 unstuck from my ass. You and your friend are doing good to the kitty and that's what's important. He now has a loving home and is healthy and taken care of! Sorry to be such a PITA!
P.S. I had a good laugh at the Jughead comment!
Well, then it sounds as though you are borderline insulting Jarhead and that's not cool. What I like about this blog is that we are all different and yet, enjoy chatting, so let's be nice :)
jar....perhaps anon was being stereotypical, and perhaps some of us ladies are too, but you have to admit it is rather unmarine and unmanly to be posting here a lot and asking questions about wedding plans....and to always know exactly the same obscure quote kiki is quoting and the same languages....
i am sure you can understand that and understand our jesting....
if you feel vulnerable and won't show your face you could always post a pix of jake gyllenhyn [how the fuck does he spell his last name???] from that movie where he played a marine!
are you facebook angie? or the fans of DD group on facebook?
Wyatt Earp changed his name from the infamous name of his ancestors, the murderous brothers! It still sounds similar but different. So, my kids are related to Wyatt Earp. We had to trace it down. It's not official documents, so don't ask me that. But he had th same name from the same area of the US at the time of their ancestors. So, we just like to say he was related. & very well was.
I'll send you a picture of my buddy pushing his hemorrhoids back in his butt if you'd like a little more Marine Corp. Ha.
Newsflash. All of us cry. I made a decision to live my life whichever way it fulfills me most.
In my case, being with my family, living off the grid, working with vets and being supportive to anyone is exactly what I want to do. I come here because this is new to me.
I learned to love while I was alone because I missed the true intimacy I wasted in past relationships. Almost dying made me want to live as best I could.
No comment here is going to change my mind. I correspond with kiki privately about other issues as well. No hate left in me.

Tia...wait...somebody stole "Kiki's" picture??...but...but...oh, nevermind. & Angie, you gotta get in the loop babee! <3
rox
you traveled to germany and norway working for vets?
i'm getting confused...as michael k would say, something in the milk ain't clean...
detective latoya where you at???
yeah rox...it was the exact same pix, she needs to get on wiki's ass and claim credit!!!! that's so wrong someone stole a pix and claimed it was theirs!
& Jar, no rectum pics please. Again, thats so "unMarine" to even suggest. My father was the ultimate gentleman & very respectful. But he wouldnt bother some of this with a reply. In fact he woulnd't have even sought this site out. I cannot compare you to him. He was assigned very top secret missions but he never discussed it. I didn't even know about it till just before he passed away. I would have loved to talked more about his military career but I was too young to be interested and to be honest, he just didn't discuss it. Like most men, he wasn't talky or chatty. But he sang me a cowboy song he read from a Japanese songbook! & yes he could write in Japanese as well. Had to learn, as he was stationed there for 7 years. I am pretty sure I probably have some 1/2 siblings in Japan!! 7 years? I mean c'mon!! Yet, never would have heard any tales about tail either, or rectum. He would have punched you for saying that! Respect your branch bro!!
rox
WHO stole my Brig??? That's just so wrong.
The Niagara is coming home in several weeks and bringing other Tall Ships with it. I'll send DD pics of all the tall ships in the harbor. They are so majestic, love it when they do the cannon salute when they enter the bay.
Hey Tia,
Don't you understand anything? Anybody can swipe (copy & Paste or "save as") anything & claim it to be theirs. Including & esp pics!!! I could post a pic of Audrey Hepburn as myself and who the hell would know it wasn't real? LOL!!! Duh! Everybody!! Wiki doesnt give a ship who steals pics and if they post a swiped pic, it's their own mistake I visa-versa. I would be raising some he** too. But Wiki has been known to be very presumptuous and often jumps the gun & makes mistakes. So, we all do it. Its too easy to do. You know that girl. You just gotta do your research! Now do we all understand that pics can be fakes, swiped from someones FB wall or a website? Yea...thats right. I figured. We ALL know. Don't make me 'splain again! FAKES!!!! Love ya!! eh?? hehehe
rox
well rox i just believe the best of people....it just shocked me to see that kiki's pix had ended up on wiki! i hope she raises hell about that! stealing pix like that is so wrong!
I would also like to believe the best in people but not anymore. I do not trust many people nowdays. Sadly, with good reason. I have been lied to alot in my life and it does cause you to doubt things. Esp now with online personas, gawd! We could ALL be fakers!!! I just want you all to know that I have NEVER sent DD a fake pic, not of my dogs or my gardens or my children. I have a FB & they are all on there as well. All mine. Some of my friends on here are my friends there and we enjoy a chat on occasion. And we have a laugh or 2 while we are at it. I really care about my friends on here and would NEVER even think of faking a pic. Whats the point???
rox
Sorry rox, but I don't have to "get in the loop" to recognize rudeness when I see it. You are all over the board and I'm wondering if something is wrong with you.
Yes, Tia I AM on Facebook, are you saying you have a special group for DD people? That's cool :)
yeah....search for 'fans of DD'....i have to approve membership....and/or send me a private message on facebook....you can find me http://www.facebook.com/misstia my user name is tia windsor on face book and my icon is a gold kitty, mortimore.....
rox isn't being rude....
i do apologize to DD for this post getting out of hand and sent an email to her to that effect....
i shan't add to this post anymore....have a good day ladies!! i got a dr. appt. at 2pm to tell her that maxzide IS EVIL!!!
Angie,
I am NOT being rude at all but you NEED to get in the loop. We need to find a way to get the info to you so you can find DD`s FB page.
I post the same damn pics on my FB page that I do on here. So if I am lying to you all, then I am lying to my kids, my inlaws, my family, and my close friends too.
No, Rox isnt being rude. Once you find out why, you will understand.
it is Fans of DD
Miss Tia Im going to send you an email that
will explain what I do privately and put you in
the picture persay. Please stay tuned.
Enrique you already know exactly what I'm talking
about. And yes we do exist we are nit the same
person I am Kiki he is jarhead two separate
individuals not the same posters. We are friends
who have been speaking privately for 7 months
and I can vouch for him. I never said he looks
like Janet Reno ( female politician )i said Jean Reno
the male actor.
I spent 1/2 the night talking to my neighbour
Valerie and indulging in too much cake. Sorry
I didnot make it back till now but I went for my run
later than ususal and I'm a few hours off on my daily
routine to say the least.
-Kiki :]
this post got out of hand. i apologize to Rox for my comment on the picture of my buddy on his back. it was rude and uncalled for.
Pat. If you need my phone
number just say so; you have my email.
All that being said, I hope you had a good night kiki!.
Jarhead
Enrique I will speak to you privately soon.
I'm fine just stayed up too late last night at
Valeries house. I will talk to you soon. -Kiki :)
OMG! kiki...I cannot believe you actually thot I meant that he looked like Janet Reno, sarcasm??? altho...she doesn't look like any woman I have ever seen...so...
rox
janet reno is rather manly....i think janet reno would make a good marine rox!
Rox I am one of those weird rare weirdos
that do not know when where what sarcasm is.
I agree with you that Ms. Reno is rather manly and
tall & could pass for marine anyday ofvthd week!
That's for sure ! No offence taking with the mix up
It's me Rox I just don't understand sarcasm.
Usually people have to point it out to me after
the fact and Im a bit gulliballe as well it my minor
Achilles heel persay but my major Achilles heel is
my actual Damn left foots Achilles heel. I have had
it for years and I overran it's patience this morning
due to overeating all the cakes last night. -Kiki :]
No need to over explain so much Kiki...just like Jar does. It's sooo not necessary. Just forget it. I am not a bade person, I do say things on here that woulnd't leave my lips in person tho. I feel a bit more free to express myself. So, sarcasm away!!
rox
And Tia, I believe Janet Reno WAS a Marine at one time! LOL...JK...
And another thing Charles Boyer? Really? He's NOT even good looking, not to me anyways. He was a short,balding older guy, looked like Fred Mertz to me. & Janet Reno & Freddy Mertz together! OMG. LMAO!!! I am afraid I wouldn't consider being compared to Charles Boyer a compliment at any time. But thats me. Fred was funny tho! What ARE we talking about on here anyways???? This is it for me. I am over it. ta-ta
rox
Oh - what a darling little kitty. He looks like my Zooey who passed on 7 years ago. Julio will bring you real joy, I am certain.
Oh. My. Gosh.
What a post.
Well, I think of Jarhead exactly as he presents himself. We're all different, and servicemen and veterans come in all shapes, sizes, and attitudes, as well.
My father was in the service, and was a very sensitive sort. He was army, and served in the South Pacific. My cousin's husband was a nice guy and served in Vietnam for a number of tours of duty.
I run into servicemen home for their wife's delivery occasionally, and some talk about what they do and where they have been and others don't. I also work with an anesthetist who was in Vietnam, and he is one of the sweetest, kindest men I know. He always says it was the love and patience of a good woman that brought him to the place he is, mentally and emotionally.
I like what Jarhead brings to this blog. He brings a different viewpoint, and I do not for a moment doubt that he is exactly as he presents himself.
Just for the record, everything I have said about myself, my family, my work, the pictures, etc. is all mine and 100% true.
I married my husband for some of the same qualities that Jarhead reveals about himself, here, as well as others. He is a very sweet man, too, and I know he treasures me. It sounds sappy, but tonight when I got home from work, he took me by the hand, and led me to a little pastry he had bought for me. He insisted I sit down and referred to me as his "queen" while kissing my hand. (We have been married for 21 years.) There are nice guys around, who really don't mind keeping women company, or listening to what we have to say.
Christina,
You have got the real deal!! And for that matter so does he. Leading you by the hand to the pastry says it all. 21 yrs with at least 21 more to go! I like hearing about the really loving marriages. IMO, nothing more lucky can happen in one's life.
Congratulations Christina.
I always think of that Led Zeppelin line; "mellow is the man who knows what he's been missing".-
Thanks Merette,
I emailed Pat a better picture of Julio today. This time I pulled out a T-square to give some scale to his size. He looked a little big in this picture, but you can see he has a small head still.
I'll find out what the vet says, but he is definitely eating better than he was just a five weeks ago.
Jarhead
