Pooch Cafe by Paul Gilligan for January 10, 2009

Finally!

The Plank of Wood, heretofore to be known as TPOW is a hero!! Hooray

You just know that Poncho is going to lose his beloved plank.

Let’s all send out good thoughts here, and pray that “Plankie” is not lost before saving poor Poo Poo!!

I wonder if Poncho, with all his ‘unique” talents is going to end up riding down the river on TPOW along with Poo-Poo??

I wonder where Poncho’s brothers and sisters are now.

All hail all hail yon Plankie Wood whose stories we retell; Of how sweet PooPoo he did save, from frozen ice before he fell! Chorus: All hail all hail yon Plankie Wood All hail all hail ye good Wood now.

-sniff-

Sally: Is he gonna’ die mama? Mama: Now child be still, aint nothin gonna’ happen to Plankie no mam! Sally: Mama, some that says…every time Plankie save some one he gits more leafs in heaven! Mama: That’s right child, that’s right.

Fenyugreek Tubbsbottl 111 that was beautiful! What does your name mean?

Margueritum: Glad you liked it. By the way, the song is sung by the Vienna Puppy choir.

Fristly may I say thank you for your kind words. Secondly, my name comes from the word fenugreek, which originally meant Greek Hay, our family waaaaay back were serfs from Banbury. (out side of Oxford) It was theirs to be Hayers for the Lord of the land. My father rest his soul, liked the name and thusly saddled me ….. uh gifted me with same. Needless to say my boarding school days at Queen Ethelburga’s College, York, were filled with relentless razzing. As for the Name Tubbsbottl, I believe the first Tubbsbottl was a pickpocket, hanged as a sincere gesture of gratitude by the Crown in early London.(1699 AD) Hope that answers the question. Oh Yes, by the way, I am intregued by your name….?
