ParticipantThe Calvinball is a non-bicycle riding dog? If I find it, I don’t think my cat would like it very much if I brought it home.

So you are saying you are looking for a bicycle riding dog? I could probably arrange that. Can I introduce you to Darby? This dog is a sweet heart! Available through Lost Dog Rescue at the pop up shelter at Seven Corners (or you could just bike over and volunteer to walk the dogs that are cared for there)

ParticipantDarby looks like a sweetheart, but he is not good with cats. And my cat is not good with dogs. This may not be a match made in heaven.

ParticipantTim the Enchanters SOTU Rebuttal: Listen. Strange russians lying on social media distributing fake news is no basis for a system of government. Supreme executive power derives from a mandate from the masses, not from some farcical tweeted ceremony.
SCORE
Look, let’s be honest here. SteveO is pretty much the only one of you I like at this point. Everyone grovels at Tim’s domain and promises the sacrifice of cookies and brownies and other sweets. But SteveO is the only one who dared to enter the realm of the vicious flamingos and deliver. So the rest of you….. there is a bridge yonder. Why dont you go down and try and cross it.

15 Points for first find
10 Points for crossing the frontier of realms
5 Points for a new ordinance (yeah fine – associate your “new ordinance” with a wonderful puppy picture that everyone will like is just cheating)
5 Points for swag (Pez is no comparison to Makers Mark)
10 points for potentially the best puppy picture yet
3 Points because you are suffering delusions about your score
Streetsmarts is awarded a whopping 58 pointsSARAHBEE
I really hate this person. I mean…. do I have to be nice and give her a score. Oh alright.
SHE ATE MY COOKIES! Negative a billion points!
15 Points for first find
SarahBee hid the Phoenixball on the 29th and it was found on the 31st so she loses 2 points. 8 points for the find.
I dont see an ordinance. Dilly Dilly
Looks like that is swag. 5 points
10 points for crossing the frontier of a Realm
Sarahbee is awarded 38 points. Thanks for playing. If I ever see you back here again, I will turn you into a box of pop-tarts!STEVEO
The only person I like
Nivlacball
10 points for the find
5 Points for swag
5 Points for Steve’s ordinance. Apparently you can lick something for 7 points.

You might have missed the pertinent point that my cat is not good with dogs. In fact, my cat is not good with anyone or anything, other than possibly myself and reji.

Well…… REJI said she liked Kit and Mini……
https://lostdogrescue.org/kit/
Breed: JRT
Sex: Female
Age: Approx. 12 year(s)
Color: White
Size: Approx. 18 lbs
Good with Cats?: Yes
Good with Dogs?: YesKit and Mini are a mother-daughter pair whose owner could no longer care for them. They are super sweet dogs that are good with other dogs and cats. Kit (mother) is very active and will play for hours. She loves to fetch and chew on toys. Mini (daughter) is more laid back. She loves to run in the yard and snuggle with her people. They are house-trained, crate-trained and walk well on a leash. They can be trusted alone in the house. Kit and Mini MUST be adopted together. Can you give them the home they deserve?

ParticipantClearly, we need a different cat. I’ll be sure to check out Lost Dog Rescue when that happens.

This is probably the best ordinance of all time. You’s guys might as well give up on proposing ordinances.
