Election Day at the Pond
Ladies and Gentleman, today is an important day in America’s history. In the Pond’s history. In your personal history.
That’s why I’m urging you to re-elect me, Bitty, as Queen of the Pond.
Bear will serve as my servant–err, running mate.
At this time, Bear’s representatives were only able to release a short statement: “Wuffle. Baroooo. Wuffle.”
As a gorilla that has seen both the high and lows with Queen Bitty, I can assure you she is a fair and kind ruler.
Please don’t take my other arm. I haven’t had surgery yet.
As Bear’s closest advisor and friend, I find Queen Bitty to be a stupendous Queen. Who else can ferret out the hidden chew sticks in the pantry? Who else can strike terror for miles with a single banshee scream? What other Queen can kill insects with a single whiff of her breath?
Lyle the Crocodile here. As a new addition to the Pond, let me say how gracious Bitty is to those in her domain. Not only did she allow the Blond Duck’s mother to clean the house while the Blond Duck and Ben were out of town, but she allowed her to stay there and accompany her and Bear on her adventures. On top of all that, she welcomed the addition of new groceries, treats, toys and even clothing for her and Bear. After all, Bitty is not one to turn down hospitality. She is, after all, a Queen.
I don’t like her. I tell you what, I don’t like what she stands for. I’d rather a moose run than her. Why her policies on late night snacks are atrocious–
All hail Queen Bitty. I love Queen Bitty.
This entire election is crooked. Queen Bitty is a control freak with an overbite the size of a–
I will not be silenced! I am the watch cow of the Pond! I shall bring justice and freedom to the public!
Still not convinced I’m perfect to rule the Pond? Here’s what other voters had to say:
If a plastic mouse farts in a room with only other toys for company, does it smell?
Queen Bitty said I could have a lifetime supply of roasted cashews if I voted for her. I love cashews. And pie. I really like pie.
To be frank, I’m concerned about health care. Sure, Queen Bitty has promised dental for every critter and a free supply of Greenies. But what about hospital bills? It isn’t easy being a toy. In fact, I need a new tail implant. Who’s going to pay for that? We toys need more than to be drooled and gnawed on!
Vote Queen Bitty ’08.
I know you’ll make the right choice.
*And Mom, thanks again for all the fun sussies, cleaning the house, picking up my groceries and doing my laundry so we came home to a clean house from being out of town. You’re a lifesaver!
Tomorrow, we have a new addition to the “Twirl”/ Dancehall story that so many of you have been asking for! Thursday we feature Mrs. McGill’s Beef Stew and bran muffins, and Friday we have a new Miss Pickles and the winner of the 500 post sussy! And Saturday–a whimsical treat to kick off your weekend!

Lol. Too cute – I’ll vote for Queen Bitty!
November 4th, 2008 at 9:47 am
hahaha–with an argument like that, who could refuse?
I like pie, too. Remember that, Bitty!!

Your welcome Sweetie! I’m glad I could help you out and I’m glad Ben liked the new bread. Love ya!.

“All hail Queen Bitty. I love Queen Bitty.” After reading that quote (that I imagine was urgently uttered under durress), I burst out a full-on guffaw! You are brilliantly clever, and this bit of whimsy has brightened my mood for the day! What glorious fun!

You’ve convinced me — Bitty’s got my vote! The tiara sealed the deal for me. How are the exit polls looking?
November 4th, 2008 at 6:43 pm

Bitty is so darn cute.
November 4th, 2008 at 11:35 pm
I think Bitty is a real winner! I vote for her as well! Your mom sounds like a winner too! Any mom that will clean up the house and take such good care of the pups is a real gem!
November 4th, 2008 at 11:36 pm
Yayy, my comment worked! ALL is well!

How utterly adorable!

Oh my gosh. How did I miss this one? That is hysterical!!

I want to mention that Danielle helped me out taking care of Bitty and Bear and taking them out shopping and getting your groceries. She was alot of help and it was alot of fun watching her play with the pups. As usual, I couldn’t have done it without her.

Welp, I’m a tad late here…sorry for the election loss. I’m sure you’d have made a great Prez Queeen Bitty!!

Well what can I say.. Bitty looks like the candidate of choice! And so itsy Bitty is! That usually means a low Pork Belly diet!
And I see Bitty is daring.. including Lyle the crocodile, I like a candidate who loves a challenge!!
Go Bitty!!!
