OT: Prayers needed

by AR » Sat Sep 22, 2007 5:21 am

I know it seems silly to grieve when you lose a pet, but they really can be part of the family. Well today we lost Buzzy. He's gone and we are devastated. Please send your prayers out to my family and especially my little daughter who is too young to know what is going on. Buzzy was injured by accident by my wife and she is just sick about it. I'm really not sure how she's ever going to explain to my daughter that her pet fly is dead.

I know it's hard to lose a pet, especially when it's a personality-laden pet like a fly can be. Ah, the good old days when I led my pet fly around the house on its hair leash.

:lol:

Buzzy

9/19/07 to 9/21/07

Rest in Peace. :cry:

My thoughts and prayers go out to you and yours. ;-)

Oh God! And right before the Holidays too... I mean, Yom Kippur starts at sundown and we've got to go into it with such a void in our souls. Avast ye evil forces that be!! :lol:

I'm calling for a federal ban on fly swatters. You should be able to go into your nearest police department and turn these hideous weapons in. A national buy back program is needed. We need to stop the mass slaughter of these innocent creatures. What if some janitor goes bezerk in a school cafeteria and swats 20 or 30 flies?

At the very least fly swatters should be licensed, and a mandatory 30 day waiting period enforced.

Unfortunately our fly swatter did not have a lock on it, and my wife wasn't sufficiently trained.

Poor Buzzy paid the ultimate price for our carelessness.

Dear God...do you just come up with this shit off of the top of your head or is it rehearsed???? Either way...funny as hell. :lol:

You should have had that swatter locked up in a swatter cabinet! Carelessness always leads to tragedy.

I'm so sorry to hear about Buzzy. What a loss for you and your family. But if you leave the screen door open you just might get another one right quick. Depending on where you live you could even get a misquito. Now that would be nice. See how long you can keep that one without slapping him.

Eulogy for Buzzy

Even though Buzzy was only here for short time, I think we ALL know Buzzy in our own way. Friend, companion, turd muncher.It seems like only yesterday he was just a maggot pupae on a dog turd in the backyard, and then almost like a miracle he flew into our lives through an open bedroom window. I can still see him looking at me with those 8000 eyes, the way his little tongue flicked my arm. And then just as fast as Buzzy flew into our lives, he was gone. A life extinguished with the flick of a wrist. I miss you Buzzy and will think of you fondly each day as my dog snaps out a fresh pile of shit on the new morning dew covered lawn.

Good Lord, as I first started reading this, I thought it was about the dog you showed us a picture of and told us the story about. Should have know better. :oops:

Me too. I'm off my game.
I can't believe I fucking fell for that. :evil:

Too young to go, what a shame.

My condolences to you and your family Ed...may Buzzy rest in peace.

Chief, what a touching eulogy...God bless you.

OMG! You had me so going! I was this close to sending you my heartfelt condolences!

This board is hysterical and much cheaper than a Friday night comedy club!

It's great to see AR posting in here again. Even if it's only once in a while.

reminds me of a homework asignment i had in an algebra class in about '81 or so.. had to find the "FLY" on a graph,and plot it ,, to this day ,, i dont understand what it was all about.. the only flys i knew about were at dairy queen,,

Algebra, I sucked at it. What does X equal? It's a damn letter in the alphabet, what the hell could it equal? I never got it. I get it now, but I couldn't wrap my mind around the idea then. I was a bad student. :lol:

Me too, there's a lot of Algebraic math in Geometry. I've never, not once, to this day had any use for any of it. I'm a baggage handler, if I had got it, maybe I would have been something more. I know city codes though. :lol:

All I remember is that this dude Pythagoras had some kind of effect in it all. He must have been a smart dude.
