Time4ANap Posted April 21, 2019 Share Posted April 21, 2019 Reba and Octane, you scored too! Somehow, I missed your fry pics yesterday. My brain is still getting used to the new look of the site, but somehow I did not see that perfect beg for fries! Rocket would have been proud of that one! I miss that boy so much. There are just some things he did so predictably, like heading for the car whether he was invited on the ride or not, and drooling all over my leg when I had fries . Petunia does not have the same "fry drive" as Rocket. She will very politely take one fry from me and go to her bed, eat it and go to sleep, She never comes back for another. We had to delay Petunia's fries due to a tummy issue, but she will get them when her tummy is feeling better. She has just completed the first round of Dr. Ng's modified Prison Protocol for hooks and we didn't want to upset her stomach any further since it's just now starting to get better.

racindog Posted April 22, 2019 Author Share Posted April 22, 2019 I vote for "same channel/same station" next year on 'Rockets Fry Day'. I so enjoyed this remembrance -and so did the dogs!- and also some necessary business got completed e.g. the designation of the the Astro as the Starship. Putting on my calandar for next year.

racindog Posted July 7, 2020 Author Share Posted July 7, 2020 America's favorite spud dish will be celebrated on July 13 for National French Fry Day. In 2019 we had such greyt fun remembering Rocket and celebrating with him which is how this thread started. I cannot say what the deal is with the difference in dates. I am clear about Rockets Spoil Your Hound Day in the fall and somehow I've wound up here on National FF Day with Rocket's blessing. Therefore I propose it is fitting to celebrate the 2020 Rocket's Fry Day on National French Fry Day on Monday the 13th. The dogs will all be enjoying fries and honoring Rocket. Please join in the fun of celebrating the one and only Rocket hound. His spirit is still strong here with his GT friends Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Time4ANap Posted July 7, 2020 Share Posted July 7, 2020 Rocket would approve and Petunia and Kate would love any excuse to have fries. Is it wrong that Petunia recognizes the Whataburger bag?

Milo ripped up the side upholstery on the driver's side to get at what I can only presume was a months' old french fry between the seats. He'd probably been planning for months for when he would be left without human supervision to go for it.

You will rebuild yourself around the loss you have suffered. You will be whole again but you will never be the same.
