OK, for those of you needing a little sunlight on these winter days, go here and wait for the page-flip animation to load. (6 pictures)

That was wonderful! I read the piece before but enjoyed it again very much! SO touching! Kit really is a cutie! Is it OK to say that about a guy? :-)

Speaking of needing sunlight, you should be counting your blessings down on the bayou! We had 10" of SNOW today. Driving was treacherous to say the least. I wanna move SOUTH!!!

Babe magnet?

(Oh - At first I thought Lon Frankenstein was sayin' his metrically reclined bolts gettin' zapped again....)

Yep. Good title.

Thank you Lon. I have quite a soft spot for Kit, so it's lovely to be able to put a face to the name. You certainly have been through some worrying times together. No wonder you are so close.

Message for Kit. "Play it loud, ok".

-- Carol (c@oz.com), February 24, 2003.

Kit is spectacular.

OK, OK, Listen up, you pore unfortunate smucks what need a little niceness in yore lifes. Iggie an’ me, down here on the bayou, have started a new commercial enterprise just to help youse out. Introducing:

RENT-A-KIT!

Now, for the first time ever, Iggie an’ Lon Enterprises Inc. introduces the RENT-A-KIT program! Just think, for the mere fee of a few samoleans, we will deliver a full size and fully-functional Kit, right to your door!

He walks! He eats! He plays in the tub for hours!

Each Kit unit comes with two dozen VCR tapes of classic movies, such as “Police Academy, I, II, III, IV, V, VI......”.and “George of the Jungle”. Also included, as a special bonus, are 300 stereo tapes featuring your classic favorites, such as “Little Red Riding Hood”, by Sam the Sham and the Pharaohs, or “Rama Lama Ding Dong” by the Edsels. You will be guaranteed hours of vicarious viewing and listening pleasure (and hours, and hours, and hours)

Dress him! Feed him! Shave him!

Now you can amaze yourself, by watching as your very own Kit eats everything in your refrigerator. You too, can enjoy the necessity of preparing three squares and a never-ending array of tasty snacks each day. You can be enthralled by Kit’s ability to grow facial hair and fingernails like a werewolf on a full moon! You can be amazed when he uses a whole new bottle of shampoo in one shower! And play along with the game of “which toothbrush did he use tonight?”.

Hug him! Squeeze him! Threaten him!

You now can experience for yourself the exhilaration when he sneaks into the bathroom while you’re in shower, and turns off the light. You can giggle along with him as you search for your keys, eyeglasses, the cat, or whatever he thinks is fun to “put away” for you.

Each Kit comes complete with an unlimited supply of warm hugs, lovable grins and heart-melting smiles. Watch as he receives kisses from waitresses, and extra root beer at the pizza parlor. Wonder at his ability to make people smile, to “soften” them, to teach them about their own hearts. Marvel at his capacity to give unconditional love, and at perhaps at yours as well.

BUT WAIT !

Call within the next 30 seconds, and we will include a JAZZY DOG unit at no extra cost. The perfect accompaniment to your Kit, our Jazzy dog is guaranteed to come in with muddy feet, chew anything within reach, sleep on the good couch, and bark loudly at absolutely anything that goes bump in the middle of the night!

CALL NOW! OPERATORS ARE STANDING BY

Naturally, this offer is void in any state or province where the sale or rental of children is prohibited. (Also, it will probably be terminated as soon as his mother finds out.)

Extra root beer?

-- Robert A. Cook, PE (cook.r@watchLondrinking.glug), February 25, 2003.

Here's a special hug for Kit, the special guy ((((Kit))))

And one for Lon, so he'll remember to pass Kit's along ((((Lon))))

Kit, keep that Dad of yours on his toes; next time, put his socks away for him... all of them :-)

Robert, I can understand wanting to see Helen decloak, but what's with this watching Lon drink??? Are you begging for some Frankenstein Hootch?

-- Tricia the Canuck (jayles@telusplanet.net), February 26, 2003.

Delivered "right to my door" eh! I'd like to see that!!! Darn I'm all out of samoleans and I'm such a sucker for giggles, hugs and loud music, you would have had a deal for sure. Mind you it's probably a good thing because if Mrs. Lon finds out what Mr. Frankenstien and Iggie are up to, she's gonna have someones guts for garters.
