“DUDE!!”
“You say somethin’, dude?”
“Only at the top of my lungs, dude. What’s the matter with you?”
“Just a few thousand bombs bursting in air, dude. Things have been kinda peaceful ever since, y’know?”
“Dude, you don’t need no fireworks to play the ‘I can’t hear you’ game. Next time, try this.”
“Cotton, dude? And what’re you doing to it?”
“Raw cotton, dude. For your ears. So I can pull it out when I’m talkin’ to you, and you won’t have no excuses. As for what I’m doing, I’m ginning the seeds out of it. And I’m gonna plant them everyplace I can reach.”
“That’s a lot of work, dude.”
“It’ll be worth it, dude. Conditions on Hawai‘i are perfect for growing cotton. Especially after all the fireworks these past few days. There won’t be a weevil spirit anyplace …”

Happy New Year Amoeba and Quilly!!!

Another Johnny Appleseed in the making have we here?

I take it you are letting Quilly sleep in today. I hope she didnt
drink too much gin last night!! Thanks for posting here, I did
know that you have abandoned our blog. 😉

Oops, I meant ‘your’ blog in the last line above. Sorry if you thought
I was abandoned. I’m doing good, Quilly makes frequent visits.
..

Jim, I’ll post here if and only if I have something to say. Quilly does the heavy lifting, and that’s as it should be. If I were to post regularly, her blog ratings would go down.
That bad, huh?
.-= Mama Zen´s last blog ..Review: Out Of Office Blog =-.
I’m sorry, Mama Zen, did you say something? I’m afraid you’ll have to talk louder …
Well I didn’t think it was all that bad really. Just par for the course on New Years Eve. So those weevils were what I saw running down Kuliouou huh? LOL
.-= Thom´s last blog ..Saturday 9 – You Shook Me =-.
Oh, Thom, so that was you standing on the streetcorner dealing in earplugs and asthma inhalers, was it? Yeah, those weevils ran right down the street and onto the airport, where they joined the UH professors on the earliest available departing flights.
I wonder if cotton will grow in Ohio…..
.-= Kat´s last blog ..Another Auld Lang Syne =-.
It will, Kat, though only in southern Ohio, I reckon, is the growing season long enough to secure a good crop. Right now, though, corn and soybeans are more profitable.
You two are so funny! I really cotton to this blog! Your puns just boll me over!
.-= Mocha with Linda´s last blog ..Two Years! =-.
Glad you enjoy it, Mocha. I gather this means that your spirit will be looming over us for awhile …
cotton to friday harbor?
.-= polona´s last blog ..first minutes =-.
Ssssh, Polona. The Dudes haven’t figured out that we’re moving yet …
please dont tell them!
leave them in hawaii!
leave them somewhere please!
LOL! Dude! I dub thee King Punnery! But won’t you be growin’ drunk cotton? Or maybe it’s just self watering…
.-= Melli´s last blog ..A Fowl Beginning… =-.
Maybe you should just keep those seeds and plant them at your new home…just in case, you know, Dude 😉
.-= Nicole´s last blog ..January Photo challenge – Go black and white =-.
I’m glad you survived it all. You’re giving me flashbacks of living in Belfast however. I wonder what sort of New Year’s celebrations go down in Friday Harbor?
.-= Susan at Stony River´s last blog ..Goodbye Holiday, and, Getting into Print =-.
It’s been so long since I lived in a city, I forget about New Year’s fireworks at midnight. I’m pretty sure at this point, I’d shoot back.
