I think it would be simple but effective enough to communicate to others regardless of language or nationality.

Dogpatch, yes!

Traveldogs, no, as Alex had a 100 word vocabulary and the simplicity of my signing will be taught to Sena also as she is parked next to us. I hope she mimics. Hee hee! (Just kidding Barb - I think.)

Does proving mutantcy require the attempted teaching an unsuspecting monkey how to sing dirty ditties off key ?

Dirty ditties done dirt cheap. Dirty ditties and they're done dirt cheap.

Tell Sena to be careful what she teaches Wayne. He is slower learner (thermostats come to mind) - but monkey see, monkey do still applies. Maybe Sena can flip the heating switches for him a few times!

Maybe Wayne and Sena can run an RV HVAC tutorial at the GC?

Fortunately for me capuchin vocal cords are not capable of speech the way we humans speak. I don't have to worry about her repeating what I say or telling family secrets. She is very capable of communicating her wants. And, most humans understand her back talk when I tell her NO!. In this house that is the N word.

We have eight parrots, six of whom were adopted after they were rescued from appalling living conditions. Some of them are astonishingly appropriate in using inappropriate language. It's salty enough that it might make a sailor blush!

That would be affirmative - we're both vegetarians! Bacon is not vegetarian! We don't like the "meat" like substances (i.e., Boca burgers), one of the things that makes us a mutant.

But we like coffee!

First Ever Definitive Mutant Test

Your Yearly Easy Peazy Mutant Test (only 4 questions)




Yep, it's that time of year again for us to take our annual RVM Test test.

Exercise of the brain is as important as exercise of the muscles. As we grow more mutated, it's important to keep mentally alert. As if the world needs more lerts.

Here is a very private way to gauge how your mutation compares to your last test.
Some may think it is too easy, but the ones with mutant hangup problems may have difficulty.

Take this test to determine if you're losing it or not.
The spaces below are so you don't see the answers until you've made your answer.

OK, relax, clear your mind and begin.

#1. What do you put in a toaster?








Answer: 'bread.' If you said 'toast', just give up now and go do something else.
And, try not to hurt yourself.

If you said, bread, go to Question #2.

# 2. Say 'silk' five times. Now spell 'silk.' What do cows drink?








Answer: Cows drink water. If you said 'milk,' don't attempt the next question. Your brain is already over-stressed and may even overheat. Content yourself with reading more appropriate literature such as Women's Weekly or Auto World. However, if you did say 'water', proceed to Question #3.




# 3. If a red house is made from red bricks and a blue house is made from blue bricks and a pink house is made from pink bricks and a black house is made from black bricks, what is a green house made from?








Answer: Greenhouses are made from glass.

If you said 'green bricks', why are you still reading this??? PLEASE, go lie down!



But, if you said 'glass,' go on to Question #4.




# 4. Do not use a calculator for this:
You are driving a bus from New York City to Philadelphia .
In Staten Island , 17 people got on the bus.
In New Brunswick , 6 people get off the bus and 9 people get on.
In Windsor , 2 people get off and 4 get on.
In Trenton , 11 people get off and 16 people get on.
In Bristol , 3 people get off and 5 people get on.
And, in Camden , 6 people get off and 3 get on.
You then arrive at Philadelphia Station.


Without going back to review, how old is the bus driver?








Answer: Oh, for crying out loud!

#1 Scissors... Not wait, a fork. Your run with scissors.
#2 Brown cows drink chocolate milk.
#3 My neighbor has a corrugated green plastic green house. To many kids (her sons) throw rocks.
#4 The bus driver is the age of wisdom.
