It is so unlike Reggie to slip-up like this. In all his years in the service, and then in service, he has never so heinously neglected his duties. The Jacks still sleeping in after yet another weekend bender, he tip-toes around the house with his set of clock keys, resetting all the clocks to Daylight Savings Time. He hopes none of the Jacks had appointments this morning, because if so, they're all going to miss them.
The clocks thus corrected, they all begin to chime NINE.

Who needs TP? Try the new and improved Sham-Poodle! It's super absorbant! And it runs away after you use it, saving your septic system from clogs!
Just to let you know there's a little chocolate surprise waiting for you in your bed. YAP!

Bad PAP. Bad!
SCJ drinks his Guiness, as he lounges about in his blue shorts with pony designs and a Hawaiian t-shirt that looks like a scenery of clouds
Anyone else want some? I still have most of this twelve pack left.. I have it in the cans too, if you prefer.. Drop a shot of Bailey's Irish Creme and have yourself an 'Irish Car Bomb' if you'd like..

This place seem back in good'ol Jack Club house... no more drama but senseles poodle abuse and booze running loose all around. I hope the chick come around from time to time thou...
*passes frosty beer all around*
A Wasp walks in.
"Alas, she cannot return, for the Board will not permit her to. By teh way, Candle Lighter is coming."

A Wasp walks in.

The Pigeon flies in.
"Bad Wasp! Bad Wasp! Get out of here!"Whacks with stick until Wasp leaves back to the RP thread where he belongs.
"Sorry 'bout that. He keeps forgetting."
A large bestial face is pressed up against one of the large portrait windows. Jackin was disturbed from his morning bananafest by strange voices in the clubhouse. He sees nothing now, but he fogs up and smudges the window with his watching. The gorilla guardian must make sure...
Easy big fella.
How 'bout a nice banana daiquiri?
The ape slurps down the proffered banana daiquiri, but returns to his perch over the porte couchere, where he may best protect the entrance to Chez Jack. He leaves behind on the plate glass large humorous ape masks.
JH occupies the morning by adding accessories to the ape face prints. A crown for one, glasses and a mustache for another...
I think they LIKE to be chased once in a while. When they're not lounging around on silk pillows, or digging in the garbage."So I'm not supposed to chase the poodles? Where's the fun in that?"No, they are our allies, even if they are annoying.
"We don't dig through garbage, well okay we do, but only outside the finest resturants. We do have some taste you know."
Hearing that the cat has returned, Jackin lies down on top of the porte couchere and lowers a dangling string toy.Very stealthily, Carl sneeks up on the string toy, ties a banana to it, and tosses it back onto the porte couchere.
You shoulda tied a string with a banana to one of the poodle's tails. Then you and Jackin' could both chase them.
