1. About that "believe what you wish" subject line, why would anyone think we'd have WISHED to believe what this turned out to be (i.e., fiction)? 2. About the most recent message, interesting how that showed up right about the time no discussion of "Holly" had hit my news server in probably 12...

Speaking of the Murphy's Laws site, here's one I thought you two (both being cops) would really appreciate: http://www.murphys-laws.com/murphy/murphy-cops.html (FYI, Kerrie, I do like cops (smile)) -- "The universe is quite robust in design and appears to be doing just fine on its own,...

Still around, Grace? Has anyone heard from her lately? I just realized it's been quite a while since we saw her around here. -- "The universe is quite robust in design and appears to be doing just fine on its own, incompetent support staff notwithstanding. :-)" - the Dennis formerly known as...

A good friend of mine (with two owners of her own) gave me a rather entertaining cat-care book today. It's called "The Cat Owner's Manual: Operating Instructions, Troubleshooting Tips, and Advice On Lifetime Maintenance", by Dr. David Brunner and Sam Stall. We've all seen the humor essay about the...

Over on an e-mail list I'm on, there's someone who's normally a very kind person (she fosters d-pets all the time) who now has a kitten she plans to have declawed. I'm assuming she just doesn't realize what she's about to do, so I need links to show her just why this is such a bad...

Does anyone know of either a utility that will allow .swf files to run on PalmOS or a game similar to Bubbles for that OS?

I'm starting a 4-6 month temp assignment today, and could use purrs for a good first day, if anyone's got a few to spare :-). -- "The universe is quite robust in design and appears to be doing just fine on its own, incompetent support staff notwithstanding. :-)" - the Dennis formerly known as...

2005 is now here in Sacramento, to the accompaniment of MUCH rain, thunder, and fireworks . Prayers, purrs, coos, etc., for 2005 to be MUCH better than 2004 was. I am SO glad 2004 is over with! -- "The universe is quite robust in design and appears to be doing just fine on its own, incompetent...

I have another job interview tomorrow at 1:30pm PDT . Purrs, etc., please? I've got the boys purring/cooing for everyone who needs it. -- "Don't mess with major appliances unless you know what you are doing (or unless your life insurance policy is up-to-date)." - John, RCFL

This was at least the fourth or fifth time today I've had to open the patio door to prove to His Majesty that it really *is* too rainy and windy for him to want to go out, and I *still* don't think he believes me! -- "The universe is quite robust in design and appears to be doing just fine on its...

Felix was doing the "I'm about to hurk" bit on the living room carpet and I managed to get the wastebasket under and in front of his furry face in time . Of course, I suspect there'll soon be a b*st*rd cat trick by way of payback for foiling him this time. :-) -- "The universe is quite robust in...

Felix frequently hops up on the edge of the tub while I'm soaking. He seems to want attention and water in about equal quantities . This evening, he tried to get up there, slipped, and partially fell in. He did manage to pull himself out with only his tail, tummy, and a couple of paws wet. He's...

Forwarded from Catslaves list, at Tish's request: Hi All, With *great* delight, I announce the safe arrival of Cary James Chapman into the world. Mother and baby are doing fine. He was 9 pounds-8 ounces (ouch!!) and arrived after 5 hours of labour. Disclaimer: Joel spoke with Dave, who passed...

Felix does not approve of moving. When I got up today and went to start packing boxes, I couldn't find my tape dispenser. DH couldn't find it either. We think the cat hid it, hoping to stop this moving problem :-). I did foil him, though, by buying another one. :-) -- "Don't mess with major...
