If your cat was a telephone

My niece is 13.
I tried to get her to tell me what the love affair with tik-tok is.
She says "Uncle P0okie......it's just stupid."
I agreed with her.
It's just stupid.
 
That would actually be funny if those cats had decided to take a whizz while their owners were doing that ... :D
They are probably getting revenge by pissing all over their houses instead of in their litter boxes.
 
Uncle Pookie?
Ok.
Here's the story.
My favorite movie in the world is Caddyshack. Can pretty much recite it word for word. Pookie is the nickname the Judge gives his wife.
My favorite comic strip is Garfield. Pooky is the name of Garfields teddy bear.
My email for several years was pookie@......dot com.
My nieces and nephews all have called me Pookie from the beginning. All of my good friends have called me Pookie for the better part of 20 years.
In fact, years ago at a golf tournament, one of my good friends told me that for a while after I first moved to town, someone I know called me by my real name, and he said "who the heck is that? That's pookie."

My first year covering MLB, I traveled around the country meeting writers from all different cities. We got to the postseason and the Dodgers PR guy asked for a BBWAA member to help hand out credentials. I do this. So here came the guy from San Diego. And I'm totally embarrassed. His credential is not going to be in the name of "Phantom" and I have no idea what his real name is. I talked with him dozens of times during the season. Fortunately, Phil Collier was a terrific guy and he understood my screwup.
