The "girls" of the Evil 3 share Persia's disdain for tv viewing (ignore at
all times) but Rowdy not only sits riveted to Bronco games in season but when the screaming starts from the hoomins, he leaps over and paws frantically at the tv screen (or maybe what's moving on it). We don't know whether he thinks he's "saving" us from whatever makes us yell (in pain?) that comes out of the "moving box" (remember, he only has 1 working eye; God knows what he sees) or is just caught up in the hoomins' excitement. When it gets loud, the girls retreat under a bed somewhere till sanity returns. Rowdy also sits regally on a recliner and watches regular programs with us.

(snip) Larry Osborne Persia pays absolutely no attention to the television. She curls up next to me in the same position regardless of what I am watching. My lovebird, Peaches, on the other hand wants to be a judge on 'American Idol'. She chirps loudly when she likes the singing; remains silent or scolds if she doesn't like it. Persia just purrs and puts her head on my knee Hey, maybe they could replace that nasty Simon guy with Peaches? I'm sure Peaches would be so much nicer to the contestants ;-) -- Britta Check out pictures of Vino at: http://photos.yahoo.com/badwilson click on the Vino album |

It's clear that Rowdy has some kind of Thing about the Broncos. Joyce |

scowling. wrote in message ... : Hopitus2 wrote: : : The "girls" of the Evil 3 share Persia's disdain for tv viewing (ignore at : all times) but Rowdy not only sits riveted to Bronco games in season but : when the screaming starts from the hoomins, he leaps over and paws : frantically at the tv screen (or maybe what's moving on it). : : It's clear that Rowdy has some kind of Thing about the Broncos. : : Joyce |

Well, and then there was that episode you just told us about, with him chewing on the action figure, or whatever that was. (I wasn't sure what it was he was chewing on, to be honest, but it sounded like a little Bronco action figure to me. OK, OK, you can stop snickering now. ) Joyce |
