hey, welcome to the group, Mark. I see your posts in the binaries group. It's a nice bunch of people here, like a family, quarrels too sometimes, but mostly love.

I thought only binary porn groups had this many! How on earth do you follow it?

I thought only binary porn groups had this many! How on earth do you follow it? Welcome Mark. 40,000 messages sounds about right. We just love our owners and each other. Very few topics are OT (off topic), and we consider ourselves a large pride owned and operated by our cats. As a large pride, we HAVE to be able to communicate with each other, right? Very few of those messages are from trolls. We have traditional ways to take care of them. I'm proud to be one of the developers of the Troll-Be-Que. Vicky (YOWIE) has set up the FAQ for this group at http://www.angelfire.com/mt/yowie/catfaq.htm it is very helpful when it comes to understanding the strangeness of our members. BTW, I hope you have a puckish sense of humor, so that we can have Three Daves and Two Marks as our dirty old men with warped senses of humor. Following this group takes some effort. One really needs to spend some time on it every day, if at all possible. I was off for five days while ill, earlier and had to wade through almost 2000 messages when I was finally well enough to sit up for a while. I did it in batches. When first starting out, it helps to mark all read and go on from there. You miss some, but you start out with a better chance of catching and staying caught up. For what it's worth, I'm Pam S. I live in Fayetteville, NC, USA with my husband, son, daughter, extended adoptive family, and nine cats. We have a house full at all times. We also have a lot of fun. You'll find all kinds and personalities in here. You'll also find a common thread of caring for each other as well. You'll also want to use your file feature and store recipes. We get some great ones in here. Pam S. |

-- "Dan Mahoney" wrote in message ... Next I say: HOLY SMOKES! 40,000 messages!??!! I thought only binary porn groups had this many! Welcome to the group! Thanx! The number of messages is kind of staggering, isn't it? I guess that's evidence of how crazily devoted to our kitties we are. Definitely! Getting my first cat was voluntary and she went to curl up on the greatest lap of them all a couple years ago. My current feline friends just kinda happened over time to include 5 feral tabbys. 2 orange males and their sister who is also the mother of two, 6-7 month old kittens. One of the males we (myself and neighbors) manages to grab to have neutered but the other male (not as trusting as the first) isn't about to have anything to do with being put in a cat carrier and going for ride in any car! I value the skin on my arms and face too much to make another attempt to grab him. ;-) I have to get together with neighbors to plan to spay the mother and 2 kittens. One kitten is female and is the one who now loves it when I go outside and sit down. She leaps right up on my lap and purrs furiousy! The other one is still VERY wary of humans. I don't think he(she?) would hang around if there wasn't FOOD involved. I haven't gotten a good enough look to tell the sex of that one. He(she) is a long hair so it's impossible to tell. Anyhow, I'm grateful to have them around! They're all well fed and have a couple little shelters to go when the rain and cold comes along. The funny thing is that they seem to prefer an old plastic lined, 4' x 5' cardboard box over the 5' x 8' shelter that I BUILT just for them! G Thanx for the welcome! Peace, Mark Dan Have a look at a bunch more pic's in my WebShots Albums! HTTP://COMMUNITY.WEBSHOTS.COM/USER/MARKNEWBURY Joy to the world, to all the boys and girls. Joy to the fishes in the deep blue sea, Joy to you and me.........2004---- Forever! |

Howdy Mark! Sounds like you'll fit right in... Thanx! Next I say: HOLY SMOKES! 40,000 messages!??!! Yup... we're a talkative bunch over here... How on earth do you follow it? It takes some time, sometimes. I usually try to read the beginning of all threads. If I have the time, I read most/all messages. If I'm in a hurry, I skip through threads, etc. Do whatever works for you. We won't be offended if you only write every so often, lots of folks are mostly lurkers, but they're still members of our community. Now that I take a closer look there isn't really too many post's on any given day. I'm so used to binary groups I forget that the message retention goes back ALOT farther in time with text than with binaries. So, Greetings from Watertown CT. U.S.A......... Greetings from Austin, Texas. Happy New Year! You can see pictures of our crew he http://photos.groups.yahoo.com/group...ase.yahoo.com/ and he http://home.austin.rr.com/lunamayaxoxo How about you? Got any pictures to share? You bet!! In my Webshots albums. None of *me* but lots of others (including cats of course!) he HTTP://COMMUNITY.WEBSHOTS.COM/USER/MARKNEWBURY Pic's of my own departed cat and of all 5 of the ferals that haunt my back yard. The albums are also a plus if you happen to like the Grateful Dead, fractals and other trippy type things! BG I love the Grateful Dead and I'd like to answer a question that alot of people ask themselves when they hear that a person is in to the Grateful Dead. I don't take mind altering substances of any kind (coffe and cigarettes not withstanding) ANY MORE EG This includes alcohol. I figure that what I did when I did was enough for a lifetime and any more would be like adding a few flurries to the snow on the ground laid down by a blizzard the day before! I feel that I have indeed, cought the "Eternal Buzz". My music, computers, articles and books by Stephen Hawking and of course CATS is all the brain stimulation I need! RBG Thanx for the reply! Peace, Mark -- Have a look at a bunch more pic's in my WebShots Albums! HTTP://COMMUNITY.WEBSHOTS.COM/USER/MARKNEWBURY Joy to the world, to all the boys and girls.

I would have never thought to look in here. I had always assumed this was yet another ghost group. You're welcome and welcome to the group. Tell them about the kitties you are feeding! LoL! I just did in the first 2 replies.. Ya know, if that story changes slightly every time I tell it, it's because I may remember different details and because my memory royally SUCKS! You'll find the reason for that TOO within my first two replies. I compare my mind to Windows95, it works well enough but it can get slowed down by too much "multitasking" and it kinda freezes up once in a while. ;-) Thanx 4 the Welcome! Peace, Mark |
