Well, the guys have just completed their first day of rigorous training for the carrotball event ot the Olympics. I just interviewed Tater as he soaked in the hot tub, trying to releive the cramps in his four feets and legs, as well as his nose bone. He said that he would be ready for the event. Odie had no comment. He's lying on the bed, with all four feets pointed at the ceiling, completely zonked out, and looking mighty yellow. I had to make three trips to the grocery store to buy carrots before Odie got his fill. Just before he passed out, he asked me to search the Web for a Carrots Anonymous group. When he finally wakes up, and regains his normal color, he should be happy to learn that I found a local chapter of the group right here in Atlanta. Tater told me not to be too hard on his fat little brother. He was kinda scrawny when he first came to live with us but has plumped out and gotten really fat and lazy. Tater informed me that Odie would be in shape before the Olympic event. At least Odie never wants to see another carrot unless Rosie is wearing it on her cute little tail as a symbol of his affection and devotion. Oh yes. we just received word this afternoon that there will be a British team competing in the Carrotball event. Let's hear it for the Union Jack. It's a mighty good thing that the British are good losers. Tater and Odie are, after all, only competing in the Olympics to prove their love for Rosie & Maxie. Let's just say that they are *inspired*. Check out our web page for the latest on the Olympics. The Tater and Odie Olympic Carrotball Team might just make it to the Official Olympic Home Page. If not, you can keep up with them here on the FML. Go Team!! Paw Paw http://members.gnn.com/emssandy/index.htm [Posted in FML issue 1634]
