    Now that we are in a deep freeze, I like to think of summer. Meet "Gerty" The Killer Pink Flamingo who lives in my back yard during the summer moths. She eats dogs and other unsuspecting creatures for snacks. I'll bet you have never seen another flamingo like "Gerty." She was created by an artist who lives in an old former church in my neighborhood. Isn't she cool?

    3. DrFluffy DrFluffy, 10 years ago
      and Karen is right.... He looks like he is a bit scared...
    4. vintagelamp vintagelamp, 10 years ago
      Yes, he was scared right before Gertie pounced on him...

      Thanks racer and DrFluffy

      Thank you! Virginia
    9. blunderbuss2 blunderbuss2, 10 years ago
      Reminds me of some dreams a few nites ago, after eating some old cheese!
    10. vintagelamp vintagelamp, 10 years ago
      ...and, I thought that I was your worst nightmare...
    11. ho2cultcha ho2cultcha, 10 years ago
      that's what you get when you cross a maribou stork w/ a pink flamingo!
    12. kyratango kyratango, 10 years ago
      Waaah, cool! My doggies would growl at Gerty, but I do love her very much too !
    13. vintagelamp vintagelamp, 10 years ago
      ho2cultcha and kyra...LOL! Thank you!!!
    14. blunderbuss2 blunderbuss2, 10 years ago
      Lamp, re #10. Not yet!
    15. vintagelamp vintagelamp, 10 years ago
      blunder LOL!
    16. vintagelamp vintagelamp, 10 years ago
      eye4, sure....
    17. vintagelamp vintagelamp, 10 years ago
      but the dog is fake...
    18. vintagelamp vintagelamp, 10 years ago
      LOL! eye4...at least it is not a pink elephant!
    19. blunderbuss2 blunderbuss2, 10 years ago
      Lamp, we have until 1:Pm Sat. to find out! LOL!
    20. Virginia.vintage Virginia.vintage, 10 years ago
      Ahhh!!! You are incredible eye!!
      Now the yerba is hallucinogenic :)
      Mmm...are you safe that was the yerba? lol! ;)
    21. vintagelamp vintagelamp, 10 years ago
      I'll ask the guy who made this to send blunder and eye4 pink ellys to put in their yards...but, maybe they don't need the real version...
    22. vintagelamp vintagelamp, 10 years ago
      Virginia to the rescue!!!!!!!
    23. blunderbuss2 blunderbuss2, 10 years ago
      Look again eye4. Don't you see the 2 pink "elephats" too? Closing one eye sometimes helps perspective, but not in this case. Maybe closing both? I'll try that next but may not get back to you. LOL!
    24. vintagelamp vintagelamp, 10 years ago
      blunder...what are elephats???
    25. Virginia.vintage Virginia.vintage, 10 years ago
      Ahhhh, Yess, dear vl, good idea!! :)
      ..."maybe closing both", I cant stop to laugh!
      blunder and his brain!!! :)
    26. vintagelamp vintagelamp, 10 years ago
      Virginia...what brain???
    27. blunderbuss2 blunderbuss2, 10 years ago
      Lamp, you don't know what elefants are? They are really big & have long noses and in this case, are pink. They get goo between their toes when they step on villagers. Where have you been?
    28. Virginia.vintage Virginia.vintage, 10 years ago
      Mmm, yes, can understand but...are you safe that he is a good guy? :)
    29. vintagelamp vintagelamp, 10 years ago
      blunder...I've been in a "sane" part of the world...
    30. Virginia.vintage Virginia.vintage, 10 years ago
      *30 A big lol vl !!!!!!!!!! :)
    31. blunderbuss2 blunderbuss2, 10 years ago
      STAFF!! "Runaway poste"! Send riot squad quick!! The considibbles have stormed the gate!
    32. vintagelamp vintagelamp, 10 years ago

    33. vintagelamp vintagelamp, 10 years ago

    34. vintagelamp vintagelamp, 10 years ago
      eye4..Good move!
    35. blunderbuss2 blunderbuss2, 10 years ago
      Eye4, I'll exit stage right. Don't want to run into each other on the way out & you might spill my cup of mate!
    36. Virginia.vintage Virginia.vintage, 10 years ago
      Relax blunder and drink a beer, we love you! :)
    37. vintagelamp vintagelamp, 10 years ago
      Virginia ...tomorrow for sure for the beer. Thanks for rescuing me...
    38. blunderbuss2 blunderbuss2, 10 years ago
      Lamp, just stay out from being "underfoot"! My calender says Friday every day.
    39. Virginia.vintage Virginia.vintage, 10 years ago
      Ahhh my friend! I want to help you but these guys are...so funny!!!!!! :)))
    40. vintagelamp vintagelamp, 10 years ago
      Virginia...you mean funny in the head????
    41. Virginia.vintage Virginia.vintage, 10 years ago
      vl, look at this, he is living in a eternal Friday, and I think.. this is great!!!!!
    42. vintagelamp vintagelamp, 10 years ago
      blunder...where do I buy those calenders?
    43. vintagelamp vintagelamp, 10 years ago
      virginia...send the robot in attack mode!
    44. Virginia.vintage Virginia.vintage, 10 years ago
      Nice!!!! vgelampjunior said that he will help you soon!!
    45. blunderbuss2 blunderbuss2, 10 years ago
      I appreciate you vintage. I've been loved a lot but miss being wanted. Last time that happened there was a poster issued! LOL!!
    46. vintagelamp vintagelamp, 10 years ago
      virginia...he does look like me...

      eye4, quit monkeying around!

      blunder, I saw the poster!
    47. Virginia.vintage Virginia.vintage, 10 years ago
      Im safe that Hollywood is your place blunder!!!
    48. Virginia.vintage Virginia.vintage, 10 years ago
      vl, you with blunder and eye would make the best show! :))
    49. vintagelamp vintagelamp, 10 years ago
      Virginia... keep the robot boy away from the elephants...I would miss him!
    50. blunderbuss2 blunderbuss2, 10 years ago
      Lamp. Re:34. have you found a "sane part of the world"? Tell me where it is so I can fly around it. Certainly not Uncle Sambo's Plantation! By the way, I do actually have a real wanted poster & have been tempted to poste it. They lost their case because they never had anything because I hadn't done anything (then!). Laughable now, but not at the time!
    51. vintagelamp vintagelamp, 10 years ago
      Virginia...not everyone would agree...
    52. Virginia.vintage Virginia.vintage, 10 years ago
      You right vl!! ahhhh lol!
    53. vintagelamp vintagelamp, 10 years ago
      blunder...you never cease to amaze...
    54. Virginia.vintage Virginia.vintage, 10 years ago
      Is ok vl but I will be so happy ;)
    55. vintagelamp vintagelamp, 10 years ago
      virginia... thanks for making me laugh!
    56. Virginia.vintage Virginia.vintage, 10 years ago
      The same to you dear vl!! Now Im going to sleep with a smile :)
      Can you see that Gerty is a cool guy!!
    57. blunderbuss2 blunderbuss2, 10 years ago
      Lamp, notice that I said (then!). They give rednecks TV shows, so we surely could beat that crap! I'm no T. Robbins, Kerouac or Hunter Thompson, but think between us, we could be Stars! Evanovich might be a tough competitor though! LMAO!!
    58. vintagelamp vintagelamp, 10 years ago
      loved it virginia, blunder, eye4... goodnight and more comedy on the horizon!!!

      oh, virginia...gerty is a female!!!
    59. blunderbuss2 blunderbuss2, 10 years ago
      Lamp, how do you know Gerty is a female? Wait a minute! I think I hear a drone hovering over the house!!
    60. vintagelamp vintagelamp, 10 years ago
      She is anatomically correct...

      It is not a drone, it is Gerty in heat...
    61. blunderbuss2 blunderbuss2, 10 years ago
      Lamp. Are you sure about the drone? I can always drive to a friends house with my lights out. Rumor is that St. Maarten is in the 10 top nuclear targets for the States!
    62. vintagelamp vintagelamp, 10 years ago
      blunder...yes, Gertie will protect you from all harm...no worries...
    63. blunderbuss2 blunderbuss2, 10 years ago
      All safe lamp. it was just an overhead fan needing oiling. Hey, I'm not paranoid! I KNOW I'm being followed! LOL!! Idea for the back of a T-shirt, "I'M NOT PARANOID. BUT YOU SHOULD KNOW THAT SINCE YOU ARE FOLLOWING ME! LOL!!
    64. blunderbuss2 blunderbuss2, 10 years ago
      A new record! 7 "LOVES" & 72 posts!! Lamp, how much for Gertie? I will feel safer with her close. Also, it's cold here. 74F tonite!! Is she bed-broken? My last "bed-warmer" got away because I left the gate open. She did say "Baa, baa" when she left. LOL!!
    65. vintagelamp vintagelamp, 10 years ago
      blunder, so approp. for the MH Dept. LOL!
    66. vintagelamp vintagelamp, 10 years ago
      7!!! People have no taste! 74!!!!!!!! snowing here...damn!!! I will keep Gertie in that case!!

    67. blunderbuss2 blunderbuss2, 10 years ago
      Lamp, I sure don't want to get this started again as it wore me out last nite! I'm in Atlantic Time Zone. It was fun, I admit, but glad it's over & probably staff is too. "MH" is mental health? Do they have a branch in SXM? I doubt they could handle the whole population though!
    68. vintagelamp vintagelamp, 10 years ago
      blunder, eye4, virginia...I was yawning all day at work but I enjoyed it. To bed early tonight...
    69. vintagelamp vintagelamp, 10 years ago
      blunder ...yes...MH =Mental Health...told them to keep a bed warm for you.
    70. ho2cultcha ho2cultcha, 3 years ago
