It's true OK roads are terrible, it's same when you transition from county to city maintained road immediately falling into potholes and rough road. I guess you could make humor out of anything but I doubt Amali is laughing.

Poor giraffe, must be a liberal. Its lucky, most liberals have more than a neck crooked.

There aren't very many clean places to pee, either.

This is hilarious.... and droopy, when your party acts like a bunch of old selfish cranks about health care reform, what do you think a giraffe with a kink in her neck is going to do? Of course she's a liberal.

Poor giraffe...Oklahoma roads will do it every time!

I keep thinking we have a bad tire - but have recently decided it might just be the highway between home and work! Don't know if I need to worry about an upcoming blowout - or just get used to it!

Dusty - are you on some good drugs...or am I just not getting it? I've read two of these long posts now, and can't begin to figure out what you're writing about.

Hope you get better soon.

Elusive,
do not worry about our liberal friend.

anyone who can launch into a diatribe like that, at this time in the morning,....will be fine.

and yes,..I was.... almost a doctor. Had I not flunked out due to being too dumb,......I would have been.

droopy: If a Democrat has a crooked neck, then what did Nixon and Cheney give to Republicans? LOL!!!

Dusty,I hope you feel better soon.

Actually,the roads in Payne County aren't too bad.We've had a lot of road improvements lately and they're paying off.

Good one,Bruce.

I know what you mean, dusty,
I've seen some posters on here who have been close to being the leader of the free world, ................in their minds.
Good point........I know exactly what you mean.

I've seen them too, Corvetteguy. A few even believe that they are clairvoyant.

Sorry C-guy. I'll try to keep it to two silly bulls or less just for you. (Notice how I changed the 3 silly bull word just for you? I'm trying to be helpful)!

I'm disappointed with this one. I keep thinking the odds are this giraffe won't live for long.

Sour Grapes,

research has shown that at least two other zoo owned Giraffes have suffered this same type of injury, and both lived out normal lifespans.
There was a TW story that mentiones this a few days ago.

God, I hope so............

Corvetteguy, actually I thought he must have had a fever at 4am when he wrote that long diatribe that didn't seem to be related to the story, left me scratching my head say huh?

Anything said was meant lighthearted and jokingly, don't take any of it serious. Most like to joke around here.
