This does the same, but allows you to swirl as well.

That's because penguins are so sensitive to your needs.

This is how Thurgreed trained his daughter and it worked wonders with her.

Once that bird died of old age, we got a few more as quasi-replacements (one at a time, different times), but they never could replace the first, so we ended up giving both away. They can be pretty fun, but they can also squawk a lot, they live a long time, they sort of need regular maintenance (bedding, beaks and nails and wings), and god you have that bird dander everywhere which is just disgusting. I guess if you bathe them more (or take in the shower), you could cut down on that, but I'm trying to never have a bird in the house again if possible. My advice is to tell the kid tough shit. In a friendly way, of course.

i'm betting the random inane squacking she got used to helped pave the way to her living with you?

Dude, once the bottle is open, it's open. It must be finished. The problem only arises when you're on that third bottle.

Yep. I used Ty's method with your wife, though (with similar results).

Substitute "box" for "bottle" and you could be Penske.

There used to be something similar that worked with Kreitler rollers, but that was before Al died, so it may not have been continued.

Oh, aren't you just the cleverest thing! If you try real hard and pay even less attention to grammar, spelling or content, I bet you could push right through the 69,000 post barrier! Go, man, go!
