Popup LinkGil Is BIG
From this pic you can get an idea of how BIG Gil is as he drinks from a regular sized pop can. He is 35 1/2 inches from tip of beak to end of tail.

Popup Link He doesn't always Pay Attention
He has a mind of his own and does not always pay attention.

Popup Link Gil likes to Go for rides
In this pic Gil is riding in my 1966 Corvair ( he refuses to wear a seat belt )

Popup Link Pretty Bird !!!
The same pic as the Thumbnail -
The White is skin the black are small feathers and are just like a fingerprint NO TWO birds are alike

Popup Link His Jimmy Durante Pose
Ha Cha Cha Cha Cha Jimmy Durante has NOTHING on me. For those to young to know Jimmy Durante was a gravely voiced actor/comedian with a big Proboscis ( nose ). Ha Cha Cha was his catch phrase. Jimmy would sign off every show with "Goodnight Mrs Calabash where ever you are" to his deceased wife -- she called him "Mr. Calabash" ( which is like a big gourd ). I seem to recall he had a top 40 hit with "When I was 17" back in the 70's -- ( look it up on "Limewire" or "Napster" )

Popup Link He Likes his Beer too
Gil can open up the cans by himself and you can see vid clips of him doing that on "My Profile page's Website' link -- just look for the Gilligan page. Note the BEER IS NON-ALCOHOLIC

Popup Link The smoking lamp is lit
Gil also gets cigarettes for me ( he doesn't smoke and keeps telling me NOT TO !!!!!!! Gil is very bright for A Blue and Gold - he has a 40 word vocabulary and about 16 phrases such 'What cha doin"
'How Are You"
I's So Pretty Bird"
"I love you"
"I want an apple"
He also quacks like a duck and laughs. He is the best friend a guy could have

Popup Link That spiked Look
Gil likes that spiked look occasionaly

Popup Link A bike ride
He likes to ride around the neighborhood on Bill's Shoulder and greet all the neighbors with BIG 'Hello's' and 'How Are You's

Popup Link Swimming in The Calosahatchee
Gilligan also enjoys a dip with Bill In the Caloosahatchee River - NEAR the Caper Coral YACHT cLUB beach

  • 1st Point noted and appreciated ~~~~~~~ TO MOOSE: Why did you edit your comment - Open Mouth - Insert hoof ????? You can dispense with the Pics too small comments - I use these pics on my other websites and in order for them to load fast I reduce them. Since finding this site I have learned to save them AS BIG & small - -

    I love birds! I want a blue and gold macaw so bad. I have a mean gray and a hand raised super friendly cockatiel. I raised him myself from the day after he hatched. My gray was a rescue case. I love him even though I can't touch him. Not to mention he yells at me a lot!! Everybody else too but mostly me.

  • codepoit: Thats ok the thumbnail is the same as 'Pretty Bird' to 'Surferguy' / Jethro ---- A Bird is Not a "Critter" and Land O' Goshen -- Birds Do NOT learn TO 'cuss' FROM BOOKS OR on their own - They Mimic their environment. ( their surroundings ) Your bird can ONLY cuss if it heard the words --- There are more new shots of the bird if you go to my Profile page and click on my "website" link then look for the Gilligan Page there ----- How IS San Diego ??? Have a nice day

  • Do believe the spike look never retires. Like the color of the bird--but pics are just almost too small for me to view.

  • Hey...Floridaguy.....why are you so abrasive?? You say you have been watching this site for awhile, then you know that we all play around here and all have our quirks... and for you to call people names like "Jethro" or "ignorant" is really NOT cool....... This is a site of friends -here to share opinions and beautiful photography. But after viewing your posts...and reading your brash responses to other's comments I have chosen NOT to review your posts again. You seem to be a very "miserable man"...and I cannot just sit here and watch you insult my friends!

    - ummmm

  • Before I made any untoward comments to anyone you never saw the STUPID comment by MOOSE because he has convenienlty changed it THEN one of your "Friends" / "cronnies" - who likes to surf sent me an uncalled for PM -- again not seeing the comment BY MOOSE -- just seeing my response to it I MERELY responded -- to their initial insults - IF it is ok for them to hurl insults FIRST and me NOT be able to respond to those insults then YOU ARE RIGHT but you are NOT SO you are saying as long as you and your "friends" choose to abuse someone that is OK !!!! AND for ME to respond is wrong !!!! WOW As far as anything else Goes I call it as I see it And many woman who say it is OK to call them BROADS in Public SUFFER FROM SOME TYPE OF self esteem issues -- OR maybe you don't agree to that - I think "broad" is a demeaning and insulting term - TALK about insults As far as taking offense to his and others calling animals critters - I guess I was just looking for something to incite those who referred to them in that elementary - back woodsy - Clampet way -- I did this AFTER - REPEAT -- AFTER -- HE SENT ME THE PM If thats the OBTUSE way you want to refer to animals then MORE power to you --- ---------------- Beholden == I Hope I can hold you to your statement: "I have chosen NOT to review your posts again" But I know that will not happen Others watch and see -- she / he will be back

  • OK, lets set the record straight so that everyone knows what happened. Bllizzard posted this comment Very nicely:The pictures are descent and the story is sweet. Next time you might want to use less spacing in between the paragraphs. It takes up too much space. To which FG replyed as he always does on every post:You can dispense with the Pics too small comments - I use these pics on my other websites and in order for them to load fast I reduce them. I then said: That is not what she said. To which FG replied (And I don't have the actual text cause he changed it): But in all capital which indicates yelling : I KNOW WHAT SHE SAID, i MEARLY POSTED THAT AND WE MUST HAVE BOTH BEEN IN THE CACHE AT THE SAME TIME AND I DIDN'T SEE HERS BEFORE I POSTED MINE blah blah blah. Cont....

  • So then I was like.. What ever and changed my comment since it no longer mattered to a nonsensical: I like Chesse (sic)with a fine Port wine. My favorite Cheese is Fgiagbfi. And to most it would be non-sense but through FG devine wisdom and code experience he was able to decifer that it meant Florida Guy Is a Great Big Friggin Idiot. To which FG replyed: I don't care what kind of "Chesse" you like GFY.. which we all know of course is Go Fuck Yourself! So, I thought hey I will give the guy the benifit of the doubt and maybe I would visit his website after which he publishes in comments My IP address, Very nice to have that and my town out there on the web but you know mine is dyanmic so it changes everyday so I don't care and I also tink hey let it go so I change my comment to what it now says "Very Nice" Cont.....

  • So anyway FG, You really bring nothing to this site. You are abrasive and have been since you first posted not only to ther members but to the editors. Your photos: There is absolutely no redeeming value to them, and don't use the resolution excuse. You can have good photographs and if you correctly size and compress, they can still look good and take up a very small file size. But they are withou a doubt the worst photos ever published on PH, they look like video grabs. No good content, or compostion, or artistic merit. Sorry but that is my unprofessional 40 year expirience in photography opinion. I know you have been delt some bad cards in life but that does not mean you should have to flame and be as arrogant as you are. You live in Florida the sunshine state how about a little sunshine from you? But now, I will ask that all members of the site Boycott all of FG's post and I will gladly refund your subscription cost FG and double it. Just Go Away!

  • YAWNNNNNNN !!!!!!! First of ALL Nice to see a four letter expetive on a family oriented site -- lot of class MOOSE Just one of the MANY miscews you posted ---- You are mistaken I never posted your ip OR your Hometown Unless you live in San Diego and have Road Runner -- anyone with any computer savvy knows '204' ( the first three numbers of the ip I posted ) ARE A Road Runner Designator I think you live in Oregon --- I never write in ALL caps - REPEAT -- NEVER in ALL CAPS YOUR 3 comments are nice and make fine reading but they are sheer fantasy ( polite way of saying lies ) This post should have said "xxx/xxx/xxx/xxx is a designator for a road Runner account The first three numbers of the account I posted were 204" Next time I'll Type slower for all 'yu'uns

    Please sign in to rate.


  • Ok No problem, If they are lies, post what was said by me and you. We both changed what we posted so lets see if your memory is better than mine. yes, I will say you wrote in the first reply as you did in here. "I never write in ALL caps - REPEAT -- NEVER in ALL CAPS" so you were only yelling part of the time

  • Okay, I lied, I can't stay out of it now...floridaguy, not only is it false that only RR uses 204.x.x.x IP addresses, it doesn't take any computer savy to come to that conclusion (how ever you made that determination). In fact that whole statement is so full of holes I can't even believe you stand by it...

  • Read what the post said --- I did not say / mean the first three numbers were a disgnator -- the whole ip address ( ALL FOUR SETS OF NUMBERS ) together are the designators of a Road Runner ADDRESS is what I meant ---- go to http://remote.12dt.com/rns/ and type in a good ip number and it will give you the IP name = Road Runner - AOL - Sprint But you know that already The reference to the first three numbers (204) was to let the person in question know without putting in the whole number it was NOT his ip number he said I posted ( a lie ) --- HIS is 134.xxx.xxx.xxx -- intel.com from Oregon 204.xxx.xxx.xxx. is from FROM roardrunner.com San Diego The other numbers in the set pin point an individuals computer exclusively This is how law enforcement agencies can track emails and other illegal interent activities It's Almost as good / reliable as DNA I know this will be gone as soon as MOOSE sees this comment --- Lot of Class MOOSE - You used a 4 letter expletive on this family oreinted site in one of youe your comments above We don't "ALL" know these things -- just as I don't "ALWYAS" use upper case typing -- two more blatant unthruths I Honestly Swear to God and on my ability to walk - thought GFY meant == Good For You - NOT GO FU-- Yourself !!!! but then again I am a Christian and believe in God Tells me a lot about the population here NOT ONE COMPLAINT !!!!!!!!!

  • okay, so which part of your comment did you want me to read, that doesn't say the first 3 numbers "204" are a designator for RR? This part: "anyone with any computer savvy knows '204' ( the first three numbers of the ip I posted ) ARE A Road Runner Designator"? or was it this part: "a designator for a road Runner account The first three numbers of the account I posted were 204" I really can't make up my mind... BTW, stop editing what you wrote to fit your needs...it's very unbecoming...

  • Just also to be clear and as a good Christian you should tell the truth. You posted the entire string originally. Also you should know as a Webmaster it is highly improper for you to post the IP's of people who visit your site anywhere.

  • I should have typed "the 204 are the first three numbers of the ID I posted" -- then Paused --- then typed "The whole IP number is a designator of a roadrunner IP" I see where you thought I was refering to the 204 as the designator -- BUT I meant the whole IP number deisignates a Roadrunner.com IP I didn't think it was that confusing If I WAS editing my comment to suit myself I think I would Have edited that FIRST

  • More improper than using 4 letter explatives on a family oriented site I think NOT If posting IP numbers from visitors is IN any way against Internet Protocol it is news to me why do SO many forums use IP numbers right in the messages and comment if that is the case i.e http://bimmer.roadfly.com/bmw/forums/z3-coupe/5929806-1.html http://www.clubcobra.com/t59888.html http://disjointed.org/archives/2005/07/888_8589823.html I have nothing to do with those forums and just picked them by searching for "Forums 134.134." But I knew that IP's are shown on almost 80% of ALL forums -- those are internet sites the last time I looked

  • I'm glad to see that "anyone with any computer savvy knows '204' ( the first three numbers of the ip I posted ) ARE A Road Runner Designator" means the same thing to you as it does to me...yes, the above quoted comment is why I thought you were saying 204 is a RR designator...umm, because it's what you said... as for posting someone's IP address in a public forum...whether it goes against any official rules, or laws is irrelevent, show some respect for people's privacy.
