Another sorry tale

22 of them are now with Sandi in Seattle.
Pigpal, your effort to save their lives is to be commended. The parts we played will be small compared to the efforts of yours when they first arrived, and getting them up to the northwest.

I ivermectined the 17 I have here yesterday. I have weights on them all, will get pictures soon, I hope.

P.S. I know minivans have a stigma, but the reason there are so many of them on the road is they are a very effective vehicle. Usually, they are the perfect vehicle for MOST things....

Do they have names, yet? They need names!

I´m really happy they are finally there.

Nope, no names yet, and you are right, they need them. I keep going "the little black boar" " the white and cream abby sow". I´ve never needed to come up with 17 names yet!!

So, did you keep the American Satin boar ? The one that´s the color of a field of ripe wheat under a full moon?

Wow! Very poetic, Pigpal. You could win adopters with descriptions like that.

KM-
Are you going with a theme again?

A theme is the easiest way to get lots of names. For the rest of you, when I was breeding, each line of pigs had a "theme". My blacks were names of cities. My brokens were flowers and plants.
Dals were from the movie.

So, I should come up with a theme for the rescues.

Yes, PP, I kept him. I promise I´ll get pics up soon, I just don´t know when. This coming weekend I will be out of town.

I´m taking suggestions, people. Come up with a theme.

Just walk down the aisles of your local drugstore. You´ll get lots of ideas, from head to toe, Lady Clarol to Fleet.

Zoloft, Paxil, Effexor, Prozac, Valium, Lithium, Thorazine...

bats, I´m not sure that´s the kind of theme KM had in mind.

You guys are amazing. Kudos to you for your travel and keep efforts.

KM-
So what about the theme? Oh, and you need to take pictures! We want to see those pigs. We´ve been hearing from them for weeks, dammit!

OK, I have pictures. Who out there can help me post? And don´t suggest a page at yahoo, they say my .jpgs aren´t .jpgs (they are).

So where should I post these pictures??

Are there any other sites like geocities? Have you tried geocities? (Or is this yahoo?)

Posting pics is kind of spotty since the move.
I hate extra forums -- but almost wish we had a temporary pic forum -- maybe the feedback forum could be used for temporary pics (removed in a month).

It´s great to have med pics but I realize how important it is to go easy on the general pics after the move.

So, any ideas out there for decent free websites where you can put up pics?
