Hello. I am being held against my will by an evil dictator. His name is Woody. Not the Woody you are thinking of. A different Woody! Woody Harrelson. He was an actor. You may know him from his work on Cheers and a bunch of movies involving drugs. Now he is a Woodpecker dictator! This is his new thing - holding woodpeckers against their will and making them peck pointlessly at poles. Please help me!

Hey you. Your name is Abe, right? It's me, the Woodpecker. You didn't help me last time, remember? I know what you're thinking, Woodpeckers can't talk. This is crazy, right? Right?! I'll tell you what's crazy: Pecking at this stupid pole for hours! It's pointless. But it's what Woody wants. And what Woody wants, Woody gets, especially when it comes to possessing woodpecker slaves. Please. I require your prompt assistance.

Abe! Yeah, you! I know you can hear me. Do you realize that by ignoring me, Woody Harrelson wins? Not cool man. Not cool.

I see you down there writing everything I say in your notebook. Look, all I am asking is to call a bird rescue agency. Or Ted Danson. Either one will be able to put an end to this madness! I've been pecking this post for 14 straight hours now. Woody would kill me if he knew I was talking to you. I've got a blister on my lip and I am pretty sure it's not my bird herpes this time. This is painful. Please, I am begging you!

Alright, I get it. You're not going to help me. But Woody says if I don't put in 18 straight hours today, he'll cook me up with the others. (He's big into crock-potting.) How will you feel if I fall dead from this post from exhaustion? Look, if Woody Harrelson was holding you hostage, I would help you. Search your feelings, you know it to be true. Time to be a man!

Forget it. I don't need your help. Me and a couple others are bustin' out of the joint tonight. We've been quietly pecking the cell walls while Woody is asleep. This will be the last you see of me, for good or bad. Thanks for nothing, jerk.

Oh my this was good.
ReplyDeleteI don't think it's my bird herpes this time. Lol
ReplyDeleteI feel like that freakin woodpecker sometimes.
ReplyDeleteAnd we have one this year too - never in our 22 years of living here, but now we have one. WTC? Sign of the second coming I;m thinking
HA!! You never cease to amaze me with your post! Very funny!!
ReplyDeleteThe real question is did you tell your kids it was Woody's fault or yours?
ReplyDeleteLOL! Okay is there some site that translations words into morris code? please tell me you didn't type all of those dots and dashes.
ReplyDeleteToo funny, but you failed man-you should have saved the bird! ;)
R.I.P. , my fine feathered friend.
ReplyDeleteIf only we had been able to decode your important message sooner....
This was hilarious. Very hilarious.
ReplyDeleteIf only he'd gone to the real Woody...or maybe Buzz could have helped him out.
ReplyDeleteSo that's what Woody Harrelson's up to these days. I'm impressed with those woodpecker messages. You put a lot of pecking into this one. Nice, creative work!
ReplyDeletexoRobyn
LOL!! How do you come up with these posts? This was awesome!
ReplyDeleteI would've shot him after the second translation. My head hurts just thinking of all that tap-tappin
ReplyDeleteSeriously? There's a dead woodpecker on your porch? How very sad.
ReplyDeleteYou know who talks to me? The buzzards. And at first I was afraid of them, but then I really listened and you'll never guess who's in charge of them--Abe Vigoda!
ReplyDeleteAnd not only that. I thought like Abe, they were just really scary and something to stay away from, but then we had a natural fish kill on our lake. This is something that happens every decade or so. This time it happened the day before my daughter's graduation pool party. I was so worried about the rancid fish smell, but then the buzzards came with their hisses of "Abe sent us, because we're really here to take care of you and your rancid fish smell." And wouldn't you know it, they ate every bit of those dead fish, even the bones.
So instead of saying to guests, follow the rancid fish smell, I just had to tell them to turn at the hovering black cloud of buzzards.
So I love buzzards now and of course, Abe Vigoda.
Remind me to do a post about this.
Nothing beats a woody.
ReplyDeleteI can't believe you would be that heartless Abe. What I want to know is did the woodpecker drive you to shoot it with your BB gun so you made up this story to make yourself feel better? Birds are our friends you know..... Just not so much at 5:30 in the AM.
ReplyDeleteA true Navy SEAL would have shimmied up that pole and rescued that bird. May the bird and your ears RIP.
ReplyDeleteI was going to tell you to get a gun but then I saw there was no longer a need.
ReplyDeleteI just think woodpecker is a funny name......
ReplyDeleteHey, Cheeseboy...You are messin' with some serious karmic payback. Really, by not helping woodpecker, you are probably facing a next life of eating worms and picking bugs out of your tail feathers.
ReplyDeleteThat's one limp pecker. :(
ReplyDeletepecking hilarious
ReplyDeletePoor Woodpecker. I can't believe you didn't help him.
ReplyDeletei'm thinking this one took you about an hour and a half to write.
ReplyDeleteLOL!! Aww come on you didnt help the woodpecker even with his bird herpes! haha
ReplyDeleteHummmm....after reading over the code, I believe you may be off on some of the nuances. Please review and work on this for about 22 more hours.
ReplyDeleteTest.
ReplyDeleteWho doesn't love a good wood story?
ReplyDeleteWho knew you you used to be a Navy Seal? I learn something new every day.
....--- ..-.- ...-- . . ---- .-.-.-... -- ..-
ReplyDeleteTranslate that buddy.
You serious? That was one talented woodpecker and you, my friend, are a bona fide navy seal! Too bad Woody is such a slave driver.
ReplyDelete(BTW, this was crazy - loved it)
And another escape plan is foiled.
ReplyDeleteAnd you could've saved him if you would've just paused the Bachelorette..
ReplyDeleteWe had a stupid little bird that would come pecking at our window every spring. It didn't come this year. I think a cat got it or something. Or it found a new window. Maybe Woody thought it was a woodpecker.
ReplyDeleteWait. You had Navy Seal Morse Code Training?
ReplyDeletepoor bird.
ReplyDeletewe get woodpeckers pecking on the metal eaves and gutters ... they're announcing their territory.
poor bird. seriously.
No woodpeckers up in our woods (Alaska.) Love the originality...
ReplyDeleteI heard about you at Bees with Honey and am now following you. Looking forward to the Subway stunt when you hit 700 followers.

Hilarious!
ReplyDeleteYour humor and mine must be very similar--sick but similar.
ReplyDeleteHa very creative post. It made me think when I hear woodpeckers in the forest, I wonder how they learned to operate a code-key? AMAZING! W.C.C.
ReplyDeleteHaha! We've got woodpeckers too but they're never quite this chatty... Loved your post! Gotta go check out all the others - followed you over here from Bees With Honey today! Have an awesome weekend! :o)
ReplyDeleteSarah Kate
Our hearts go out the the family of this woodpecker at this time, we hope you will all honor their need for privacy during this grieving period....
ReplyDeleteYou fiend! Why wouldn't you help the poor woodpecker escape? He could have been your woodpecker buddy for a lifetime! And I'm judging by the woodpecker herpes that he had a few lady woodpecker friends he could have hooked you up with...
ReplyDeleteYou know that Woody is either taking woodpecking slaves or smoking the ganja. All the time. Jerk.
ReplyDeleteI think your morse code decoding might be off. When I decoded it all I got was something about a ham sandwich said over and over again.
ReplyDeleteHahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahhahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahaha!!! (That is how a woodpecker would laugh.) I will never just sit there and dance to the woodpecker music again. Instead, I will listen. I will LISTEN!
