TAN # 84 - The TAN-somest Thread Ever (Page 14)

olliedawg - 2009-09-17 10:20 AM
Hey bc... me and ms went and played a little tennis yesterday.  i forgot how much I liked playing.  Of course, it was mostly just me hitting waist high lobs to her forehand so she could launch them over the fence.  But every now and then she'd return one where I could reach it and it would all come back to me. 

olliedawg - 2009-09-17 10:30 AM eeeeeerrrrrrttttt!   And I killed TAN. 

bcart1991 - 2009-09-17 10:44 AM I wish I could find some old Yakima Y-33 clips. I can't find those buggers ANYWHERE since they don't make them any more. Filth flarn flarn filth.

olliedawg - 2009-09-17 10:50 AM



Not sure what car you're putting them on... don't you have a 3 series BMW?  Google gave me this:

zwest - 2009-09-17 11:09 AM Anyone know of anything exciting in Lincoln, NE.  There is a 50% chance I'm headed there for  Turkey day.

JChristoff - 2009-09-17 10:07 AM No Jack Hannah, it wasn't anything formal... My company is down the street from the c-bus zoo so we get a lot of visits like this. Birds mostly... or cheetah's since it is one of the breeding specialties of the zoo... never seen a lynx or a snow leopard this close. He was beautiful. Gigantic paws, long tail... way too big for his body at this point.

Baby snow leopards are the cutest things ever. All paws and tail.

I volunteered at the zoo in Milwaukee in high school doing summer camp things, which meant I got to get into the zoo early so I would see animals that wouldn't come out during the day.  The two summers I was there, the snow leopard had three babies each year.  I would come in a half an hour early just to watch them play.

So goggs, I see you're traveling but you still make time to TAN.  What's Trix's excuse?  And where the hell is Zirra?  Slackers.

Hey, our current Curator of Bird and Reptiles used to work at Milwaukee Co Zoo. 

mr2tony - 2009-09-17 11:14 AM Trix drives everywhere and Zilla is texting me. I got (real) texts from both last night so i know they both alive. Other than that, no idear.

Artemis - 2009-09-17 11:16 AM



Very cool.  Ask him if he ever did the raptor show with the hawks and falcons.  I loved that.

Milwaukee Co Zoo is a really neat zoo.  I blame them for why I have high standards in zoos.

JChristoff - 2009-09-17 11:09 AM

What about these on ebay

bcart1991 - 2009-09-17 11:18 AM


I need the clips that hold the rack to the car, not the bike to the rack. I got that part covered.
