    I had forgotten that one Richard! Thanks for the link too. I was trying to describe to Randi yesterday what Cracker Jacks were, don't know if she understood or not so now she can see what they are!

    I've got two things running through my head. First is the 7th inning stretch song that Sara mentioned in her post, and the 2nd is this idiotic childhood nursery rhyme:

    Jack Sprat could eat no fat
    His wife could eat no lean
    And so betwixt them both you see
    They licked the platter clean!

    Who in the world comes up with this stuff?! But I cannot for the life of me get it out of my head.

    I noticed in the first video I posted you can sort of see how Cracker Jack holds his tail up - after the zoom in for the purring.

    My battery is dead on my camera. Thank goodness I have a spare because it looks like I need to take lots and lots of pics tonight.

    Oh my gosh! Debbie, you won't believe this ... but for years I never had this nursery rhyme right, and it was frustrating me! LOL!!! Somehow I must have learned it just from hearing it, instead of reading it. I learned the line

    "And so betwixt them both you see" as (don't laugh)

    "And so they twitched and turned you see"

    Imagine my confusion all of these many years? Now I might can actually get off of my antidepressants!!!!

    Congratulations on the new addition to your family!
    Cracker Jack is very handsome, my first thought when I saw his photo was that he looked like an orange Eddie.
    One good thing about his fur color is that he is half white so that when he sheds it will blend right in with your white carpet.
    I hope that Peanut gets along with him, do you think he will try to lick her all the time like Tubby did?

    Now that you have Peanut(s) and Cracker Jack, when are you going to take them out to the ballgame in the motorhome?
    (That's the song that got stuck in my head when I read the title of this thread.)
    RIP sweet Samantha

    I wish, Phred, I wish! Unfortunately the boss isn't in a very good mood today...so what's new?

    Hopefully the snow will really start flying and I will be able to leave a little early.

    Well, at least now I know who Edwina was talking to on the phone last night! Something about being....oh now I understand a Thespian!

    But Debbie....you had better keep an eye on any deliveries that arrive. I found my computer open to Amazon this morning. A quick check turned up...."Love/Hate -- Control Through Imbalance" "The Art of Intimidation" "Techniques of Dominance"......

    sorry, that just struck me as funny.

    I too would also like to welcome Cracker Jack to PT. I'm glad we will have a new furry face to talk about.

    I'm sure Tubby is smiling at all of this!

    Congrats on your handsome orange boy! Good choice to adopt an older fella (especially getting him away from a kill shelter).

    I'm sure he and Peanut will work things out--he seems like a mellow boy who will let her boss him around a little.

    An orangie! He is gorgeous. Bless you for giving an older cat a chance. I know he's got a wonderful home now. I hope he brings you much happiness. Love that purr.

    I did the right thing by setting you free
    But the pain is very deep.
    If only I could turn back time, forever, you I'd keep.
    I miss you


    I hear you whimper in your sleep
    I gently pet you and say, no bad dreams
    It will be alright, to my dog as dark as night.

    Fur as dark as the night.
    Join me on this flight.
    Paws of love that follow me.
    In my heart you'll forever be.
    [/SIZE]



    How I wish I could hold you near.
    Turn back time to make it so.
    Hug you close and never let go.

    Thanks so much everyone. I can't wait to get home and see how things are going between the two of them.

    For some reason I really don't think that Tubby left a void...

    How could the Tubster NOT take up room in Debbie's heart???

    Debbie Congratulations on Cracker Jack! He's SO cute .... those eyes! the orangeness! and the question-mark tail. Mishi holds his tail like that all the time .... when he parades by with his fluffy orange question-mark tail unfurled, I often exclaim "The Plume! The Plume!" (like Love Boat's "The Plane! The Plane!"). He definitely looks like a keeper! I hope Princess Peanut allows him to live in peace with you!
