The other day Gerry said he thought Teddy was smarter than Timmy, whose full name is Timothy Albert (after his hero, Albert Pujols) Hoard III and Sticky, whose full name is Sticky and was actually named by Timmy 'cause he has magnets in his hands and feet.
This caused Timmy and Sticky to laugh uproariously for a long time. They think Gerry has the brains (and possibly other body parts as well) of a baboon. He does not, for example, know the difference between a monkey and a chimp but does know the difference between a croc and a gator which is really important if you live in L.A.
Teddy, however, decided that this Gerry guy was pretty cool and asked me to put up this web page. He named it himself. He doesn't really know who Gerry is but he gets damn little respect around here from Timmy and Sticky, so Gerry is Teddy's Hero!
Timmy and Sticky and Teddy usually hang out together all day & watch TV. They like Animal Planet best. They are absolutely hooked on Orangutan Island. Timmy wears socks 'cause he thinks they're cool. They have little racing cars on them. Six on each sock. Sticky wears one of Timmy's old socks as a hat 'cause he's shy about his super big ears.
Sticky hangs on to Teddy ALL the time. If you want to find Teddy you merely have to find Sticky!
Timmy thinks that if he sits on the TV he is actually ON TV. Here he performs with a dancing cockatoo.

Teddy heard that Gerry got a new chair and asked me to take a picture of him in his favorite chair to show Gerry.
It's a little hard to see but he is waving. HI GERRY!
Teddy is so excited!
Today he got a picture from Earl and his friend, Kelly who are also big fans of Gerry
and also seem to have their own huge chair. Now Teddy wants to start a club of huge-chair-sitters. He expects to get letters and pictures from all over the world!
Other Timmy, Sticky & Teddy pictures gathered from various sites on the world wide web...
In 2003, Sticky volunteered to be an ornament on the Cheryl's Herbs Christmas tree. On the 12th day of Christmas he had an epiphany and went home to reunite with Timmy and Teddy, regaling them with stories of the wondrous things he had seen.
Here Timmy helps John plow the fields at Red Sage Farm in Baraboo, Wisconsin. He did surprisingly well, considering.
Timmy is actually quite well traveled. He has also been to Kansas City, where he was on the lookout at all times for crazy little women. ("They got some!" he likes to say), Nebraska, South Dakota (where he came face-to-face with a buffalo), Minnesota (Spam!), California (where he actually met Gerry - who ignored him - and Erik, who he remembers kindly) and even New York, where he appeared live on stage at Carnegie Hall in April, 2006,
and again in March, 2007.
Recently he appeared at the International Women's Brass Conference in Normal, Illinois as an adjudicator (or so he thought) for the finals of the Solo Competition. When he comes home he spends hours telling Sticky and Teddy of his exploits. He mostly makes them up.
Timmy cheers for another Albert home run.
Life isn't all just fun and games for our boys.
For instance, they are very concerned about the unrest in the middle east.
Timmy, Sticky and Teddy do their best to cope during the St. Louis blackout of 2006.
Wait! Where's Teddy????
Timmy "Spiezio" (or is it Timmy "La Russa"?), Mac the Cardinal (Timmy's good-luck troll - he fluffs its hair between innings), Sticky (it's magnets - not pine tar!) and Teddy await game 4 and hope it will not rain again. Sticky is afraid to look.
Go Cards!
(...and, as we now know, they went!)
Here's a picture of Jon & Lucy & Cheryl & Jeff with our World Series trophy to prove it!
Just before Christmas, a box arrived at Cheryl's Herbs. Everybody was bustling around - in the midst of the Holiday flurry - and the box got thrown in the corner and forgotten. A short time later I thought I heard a little sound, a little scratching, bumping sound coming from the corner. I looked a bit closer and noticed it was actually coming from the box. I opened it and out popped this baby gorilla! The box was from our friend, Dr. Amy who is a trumpet guru in Illinois. I know she has dogs and she probably just didn't have room for the little guy.
Of course we took him home. Timmy took to him instantly and soon named him Harry, but sometimes refers to him as "The Dude" and has taught him to say, "The Dude abides."
Harry had a great time at his first Christmas.
Here he sits, gayly festooned with a shiny bow,
and guards the chocolate chip cookies,
which slowly disappeared.
What a special day for Harry!
Dr. Amy came to visit him! He was so excited he didn't sleep a wink the night before! Dr. Amy actually runs a huge animal rescue facility in Illinois and was responsible for rescuing Harry from a dismal life in a glue factory. Gorilla Glue? Yipes! Yet, Dr. Amy's Animal Refuge was a bit much for Harry. 300-or-so dogs, thousands of cats, birds, hippos, giraffes. So she sent him to live with us, and Timmy and Sticky and Teddy, who, lest you forget, is the owner of this page.
Timmy just looked so sad, sitting all alone on the bed as Harry got ready to go to Cheryl's Herbs to be reunited with his savior, Dr. Amy, that Harry suggested that maybe Timmy could come along too. "Can he, Jeff? Huh? Can he? Huh? Can he come? Pleeeeease?" So Timmy came along too, socks and all! They both just love Dr. Amy. We do too!
Fredbird Visits the Boys
Fredbird, a big star in Timmy, Harry, Teddy & Sticky's world, came over for a surprise visit on Superbowl Sunday. Timmy bet one banana (his maximum bet) with Fredbird on the Giants and is now the proud owner of two bananas! Fredbird put Timmy's whole head in his mouth. Timmy said it smelled vaguely of nachos in there.
Teddy say if you like this page you will like this one too!
