After an uncountable number of attempts, I'm up to Question 45. It is *eeevil* and I *strongly* advise people not to click. Unless your name is Bev :-) "The Impossible Quiz" http://www.newgrounds.com/portal/view/365143 Yowie

One of my two very best friends, Diane, is scheduled for surgery on June 5th. She has Multiple Sclerosis, having been diagnosed at the very young age of 32. She's 5 years younger than I am (I'll be 47 in 2 months) and is now permanently in a wheelchair. She moved back to Ohio years ago to be...

My baregrandkitten is now 9 months old. You may remember that when he was new, we rented a place near him for the winter and he spent a lot of time with us as Cinder and Rosie were teaching him the ways of cats. Well, we have been back in Texas for a couple of months. The other day, our...

Quick survey for my own information *if you're a renter*: Did you have to pay a pet deposit? If so, how much was it? Is it a one-time deposit or do you have to pay it again when your lease is up? Is there an additional monthly charge for pet rent?

Boyfie just strolled in with a mousie in his mouth and paraded around very proudly. Why don't I learn to ignore it? because the moment I speak to him he always drops it, still alive and now he is rushing around trying to recapture it. Kitty sez, oh just get on with it, let me...

I start off the day being lazy, but finish putting up the laundry that I started (on Monday)... Then I realize, as I start getting things ready to start my next cross stitch project, I am two floss colors short! My own fault as I was hasty when I was checking my list in the store. *And* I...

Holly will be 12 years old next week. Actually, I only know that she was born in "early June" of 1995, but I decided that if the Queen of England can select an official birth date, then Princess Holly should have the same privilege. She was adopted on Nov. 25, 1995, and she has ruled the...

Hi All, My "cow" cat, Katie, has been in the emergency clinic since yesterday am. They think she has pneumonia, but she isn't responding to treatment. Her blood sats have gone down since I took her in, and the vet is totallly puzzled about what is wrong. They are calling an internal med doctor to...

I got off work a bit late today, didn't leave till 5:40 and it was almost dark already. The drive home is 35 km on a windy country road. I had hardly gone 1km when a roo jumped out of nowhere and I hit it. It wasn't fully grown, so at least the damage to my car wasn't too bad. The hood is...

Britta and Dennis and Fred and I all met for lunch last week. They arrived in a blinding rain storm with snowy sleet just for show. We had a nice lunch, some wine, and a visit with the cats. Pics are http://good-times.webshots.com/album/558959564TNklzp Lots of fun!!! Susan M Otis and Chester

On Thurs. I read a post where someone's Vet. sent a donation in their kitties name. Sorry, I can't remember who this was. Anyway, I have never heard of this and thought it was great. Well, on Fri. I received a notice that my Vet. sent in a donation to the Tex. Vet. Medical Foundation in...

I'm asking for suggestions to deal with an age old problem - how do you keep squirrels out of your bird feeder? My bird feeder hangs from a shepherd's crook, several feet off the ground. It has a compartment where you pour the bird seed and holes in the bottom where the seed goes out into a...

This group is awesome in helping me with Rob. He cannot read right now, so I read to him. He really loves the stories I pick up from this group. I try to collect the funny, unusual, and inspiring posts. Sometimes I'll just say, something like "well Minke Poo had his birthday this week", and...

I've been brushing everyone to cut down on shedding and hairballs. Abelard has the shortest short hair of any cat I've ever known, and Billy has the longest long hair. The tool that works on Billy has absolutely no effect on Abelard, and vice versa. In order of hair length, from longest to...

He lives out in the country but even that (apparently) isn't safe. He was driving along a 2 lane road, coming around a sharp curve (he said people just FLY down that road and whip around the curve). He saw something in the opposite lane and wasn't sure at first what it was. Then he realized it...

Last night, after an incredibly exciting evening of cooking dinner, shopping and having a long and incredibly detailed discussion of the existentialist sub-theme in Thomas the Tank compared and contrasted to the essential Marxist nature of Bob The Builder, I finally found my way to bed at...

LIfe at the vet clinic has pretty much gone about as what one could consider "normal" Day in, day out we start the day turning on all the equipment, taking care of boarders, seeing appts and treating animals and several hours later we find outselves turning off the equipment and driving home to...

Does anyone know how to stop it? I dread to think if everyone in my address box has received a mail saying "Is your c==k as hard as stone?" like I got supposingly from myself. I hope none of you have got one, if you have, it's not me. Tweed
