Say hello to our new testy mascot (now that puffy flumpkin's retired).

But he needs a name, any suggestions?

Steve,

That's just nuts!





Technology is a way of organizing the universe so that man doesn\'t have to experience it.

I second the nomination, call the question and ask for any objections.

Hearing none....

Nuts it is!




There's Jessie the yodeling cowgirl. Bullseye, he's Woody's horse. Pete the old prospector. And, Woody, the man himself. Of course, it's time for Woody's RoundUp. He's the very best! He's the rootinest, tootinest cowboy in the wild, wild west!

Aw, Nuts....

Yeah, it's got a ring to it.

How come it took so long to replace puffy flumpkin? Were you guys just making sure he wasn't gonna come back?

what happened to fluffy pumpkin anyway? does fluffy pumpkin know what's going on? i doubt fluffy pumpkin will take too kindly to being handed a pink-slip so early in fluffy pumpkin's career.

one more lyric, then i'll leave you all alone.


I'm considering a move to Memphis
With my hair all aglow
When I arrive in Memphis
I'm bound to meet up with someone I might know

Ba ba ba-ba ba ba
Ba ba ba-ba ba ba
Ba ba ba-ba ba ba

I'm considering
I'm considering
A move to Memphis
A move to Memphis
I'm considering
I'm considering

I'll visit the Graceland mansion
And set my face in wax
Then go back to my motel room
To file my income tax

I'm considering a move to Memphis
And this much I know
When I arrive in Memphis
I'll have to spend my dough

I'll walk down to Beale Street
To watch the jug band show
I'll shake hands with Gus Cannon
He's someone I should know

I'll get myself a motel room
That's not too small to see
I'll get one with a private bath
And a black and white T.V.

Memphis isn't all that big
At least that's how I found it
Why, it only took an hour and a half
To walk completely around it

Memphis isn't all that big
It isn't all that wide
Still it is the kind of place
Where a country boy can hide

Ba ba ba-ba ba ba
Ba ba ba-ba ba ba
Ba ba ba-ba ba ba

I'm considering
I'm considering
A move to Memphis
A move to Memphis
I'm considering
I'm considering

I'll find a favorite restaurant
And eat there every day
And at the nearby bowling alley
I'll bowl my cares away

Somedays I'll order chicken
Somedays I'll order fish
Somedays I'll have piroshkis
That's a Polish dish

And after bowling twenty frames
I'll sit and have a beer
Perhaps I'll meet a pretty girl
Who is a barmaid there

I'll get a job at a steak house
Wash dishes, mop floors
Yes, I know I won't get rich

Memphis is the kind of town
That won't feel like a trap
Besides I kind of like the way
It sits there on the map

I'm considering a move to Memphis
That's Memphis, Tennessee
It worked for Elvis Presley
Why can't it work for me?

The people in the restaurants there
Will all use forks and knives
They won't take decongestants though
For fear of getting hives

Ba ba ba-ba ba ba
Ba ba ba-ba ba ba
Ba ba ba-ba ba ba

I'm considering
I'm considering
A move to Memphis
A move to Memphis
I'm considering
I'm considering

I'll ask the lowly sparrow
Up in his lofty perch
Would you please direct me to
The local Baptist church

I'll attend the Wednesday meeting
And there I'll speak in tongues
I'll shout and holler 'praise the Lord!'
Until I nearly burst my lungs

Someday I'll return to Memphis
In my own private jet
I'll remember my first visit there
That's if I don't forget

When I arrive in Memphis
I'll put a sign out on the door:
'It's O.K. to disturb me -
That's what I came here for'

Ba ba ba-ba ba ba
Ba ba ba-ba ba ba
Ba ba ba-ba ba ba

I'm considering
I'm considering
A move to Memphis
A move to Memphis
I'm considering
I'm considering


the above is one of my all-time, fave, and absolutely obscure songs (i have yet to find anyone else who has heard of it) titled (in case you haven't figured it out), "i'm considering a move to memphis" by The Colorblind James Experience.

I, for one, hope to see the ol' Fluff Pump back here in Testy ASAP. With all the pictures available here, I think it is a tremendous public service to be able to pump the fluff at a moment's notice.

In the interim, Nuts away!
