2011 November 18
Looking for used mobility… Scooter..
Looking to buy a mobility scooter three whale are for whale scooter for someone in my family
please send picture thank you
Okay, Sea World is definitely feeding Shamu too many fish if she needs a scooter to get around now.
Somewhat inexplicably, this was posted in Missed Connections. I think there are definitely some connections Sparky is missing, just probably not the ones he thought.
“Three Whale Scooter” is the name of my Bay City Rollers cover band, though.
Thanks, Litarider!
Apparently Sparky believes he is the Prince of Whales.
Looking to buy a mobility scooter to be pulled by three whales. Please send picture to poseidon@abodeofthegods.gr. Thank you.
Do Whales on scooters go to Sturgeons South Dakota for their yearly rally?

That sounds like upset stomach.
Free Willy!!
(From the constraints of old age, help him regain his freedom and mobility with the all new hoverdrown.)
I’m confused – is the scooter for the whale or is Sparky offering to trade three whales for a scooter?
Three whale scooter?
I think sparky did that on porpoise.
Just one or two little letters off, and it changes the whole meaning.
Three Whale Schooner.
There, Sparks, I fixed it for you!
Alternately:
Tree Whale Scooper.
I’ve actually been looking for one of those. I’ve got this Beluga living in the Oak in my back yard. With as much as it eats every day… well… I could use a scooper to help clean my back yard.
I know where you can get a Bobcat cheap – only used once by a
little old gangster to bury a body in the desertlittle old lady to plant rosebushes.Isn’t Three Whale Schooner IF’s Three Dog Night/Blues Image slash band?
Tree Whale Shooter?
It took until this point in the comments for me to figure out what Sparky meant. Seriously, that’s bad.
Old King Triton needs some new wheels.
Would Sparky settle for a three hippo moon T-shirt?
I believe those are Narwhippos.
Unipottamuses?
Here comes a narwhippo!
It just seems weird to me that this person is thoughtful enough to want to purchase a scooter for a family member, but thoughtless enough to refer to them as a whale. Relationships are complicated, I guess …
… I had to stare at this one for a while before I realised that Sparky meant “Three-wheel or four-wheel scooter.” It was a true eureka moment – it’s like a text-based magic eye puzzle.
I totally did not see that – my brain no work so good today. Now it makes slightly more sense.
(:points at M.’s avvie: AHHHH! It’s GLaDOS! :portals away)
I find reading the ad aloud often provides a translation of the text>
It’s like playing Mad Libs sometimes, isn’t it?
Here – let’s try one:
Eye Mull Of Mush Sheen
Discuss.
The downside of dictation software.
Does Sparky need a model approved by the Sturgeon General?
I had no idea what this meant.
And then I went to Wally World.
There she was in the checkout lane, sitting on a scooter, all dressed up in a black and white body-hugging polyester outfit. She was acting like a fish out of water, but it became apparent she was really lost when she asked the helpful Wally World helper where the Easter SEAL display was.
She said she was hungry.
She looked like a real killer…and she told me she was from MajORCA.
Her name was Bubbles, she said.
Bubbles Shamu and she had a brother in show business.
I smiled and nodded as I waited to pay for my canned goods; anxious to get away from her. Something about her made me nervous.
Bubbles grinned a round, toothy, grin.
“Are those sardines?”
Adores count too many to
Should that not read “backflip;, k`k`k`k`k`k`k`; spin, tail splash; r’r’r’r’r’e’e’e’e’e; tail-stand to forward-1.5 twist half-Gainer; k’k’k’k`k`k`k`k!; ball toss”?
All I could get from the ad was that Sparky was Asleep at the Whale, and I’m not sending Spark’ a pitcher of my family.
Which spurred me to play my “Ride With Bob” AttW CD, but Giada is doing chocolate-based Italian desserts, so Ray Benson will have to wait a bit . . .
I lurvvvvvvvv that CD!
It’s a great stage show, too.
Even without wheeled cetaceans. (Two fiddlers, though.)
In a perfect world, this ad would be read by Gomer Pyle, and end in the words, “Sheriff Taylor.”
Whale, go-o-lly!
Windy, congratulations on being in the box. I made you this tiara out of chewing gum, twigs, and spare lacawate valtrus parts. You look so pretty.
Awwww … She looks aduckable!
LL, You shouldn’t have. Trust me on this one. Uh, I’m allergic to lacawate valtrus. Yeah, that’s it. I break out in pin feathers. But thanks for the thought!
And here’s my self-inflicted Punchity Punch Punch!
Good Morning, Nautilus!
