Time Out for O/T – Vol. 15

Non-consecutive serial numbers and unmarked, perhaps?

Who knew that the Almighty was an attention whooer?

Buddy – yup, those are the ones. She hasn’t caught any yet, but she sees/hears them scurrying in the bushes and is actively hunting them, as cats will.

That’s one of the reasons I started walking her every day, to be a cat, and not some half-crazy captive. She’s now very smart about a lot of things, and knows what to ignore and what to pay attention to.

Truth, she is actually totally indifferent to them. She will walk up to one or vice versa, and she sniffs a couple of times and just saunters away. She’s MUCH more interested in squirrels or anolie lizards (like little geckos).

What Maggie thinks of doggies…

jkk – 2 females, though? I think that may be a problem. When I had dogs, I always had females… but I notice that Maggie has no problems with male cats. It’s the females that seem to be spitting at each other. Maggie is spayed, and if I were to get another female, I’d have that done as well, of course, but I don’t know enough about cat psychology to know how that works.

Dogs, I know. This is my first cat.

Khirad – Exactly!

jkk – thought about it, and I MAY go back to the shelter. I asked about the process, and they start with a 72 hour hold to see if a stray may belong to someone, then they do an evaluation and put them up for adoption.

I figure that kitten is about 6 months old. Very friendly to people, and had no fleas or other apparent problems other than a little skinny (wasn’t interested in the food dish, though).

I think Maggs would eventually get along with her. There was some low level hissing and moaning on both sides, but they were both comfortable enough to take naps that afternoon.

2 cats?!?!?!? I just don’t know…

Khirad – Even as a kid in a Catholic grade school being taught by the good nuns, I ALWAYS thought the apple from the “Tree of knowledge” was a euphemism for… well… THAT sort of knowledge. Still believe that to be true.

jkk – must be a setting somewhere… I just voted another 20 times.

** edit **

I have a new hobby!

jkk – clickety clickety click!

chase – Hats are for heads… Mine stays on until **I** decide to remove it.

God made some heads perfect, the rest He decided to cover with hair.

(quote from my Dad)

I wouldn’t want people to swoon with the utter perfection of my bald pate…

chase, I hope to think I would look at the back to see if there was a door there (some elevators open both sides), and seeing none, just start laughing at these people.

» Posted By PocketWatch On March 13, 2011 @ 8:51 pm

chase, every time I see something like this, I always wonder about the people that DIDN’T follow along… How many did and how many didn’t, and what did THAT look like?

» Posted By PocketWatch On March 13, 2011 @ 8:46 pm

OK, now I KNOW we’re all going to hell!

» Posted By PocketWatch On March 13, 2011 @ 8:41 pm

jkk – Yeah, she never backs down, that’s for sure.

I ended up taking that immature black kitten home and calling up the local shelter to come and get her. While she was here, Maggs was none too pleased, but put up with it. It was a sweet cat.

The very next day we ran into that mature black cat in the woods…. I’m guessing the mother, maybe?

Maggs just crept right up to her. If you listen closely, you can hear the yowling, but Maggs never backed up. Weird, but gutsy.

Hi jkk… yeah… just a whole bunch of little things, plus, I burn out sometimes and take a break.

You liked the videos, I saw…!

I got this in an email from “foxislaur”…

This poll was started by republican businessmen and sent only to their cronies. It is meant to show that most of the people in Wisconsin support Walker and will be released to the media in a few days. Your vote can change the skew. Very easy, only one click.

Click and vote….http://www.journaltimes.com/polls/html_e7df0506-44fc-11e0-b687-001cc4c002e0.html#pd_a_4647768%23pd_a_4647768%23pd_a_4647768

Note that after you vote, you have an option to go back to the poll and vote again. I just voted 100 times. Maybe I’ll spent a few minutes and do it again… LOL

e’cat – I think that they use “heavy water” which is H3O… regular water with an extra hydrogen atom in some of the processes. When it starts to react with other elements, that extra hydrogen atom is let go, creating hydrogen gas. That can build up, and is highly combustible. Just a guess.

Per request, (jkkFL… specifically), here’s some Maggie video…

ADONAI – Politics is about perception. Looking weak and foolish will never get anyone elected.

» Posted By PocketWatch On March 9, 2011 @ 7:48 pm

ADONAI – and that means waiting a year or two. And that is a part of the strategy….get all this in before anything can be done at the voting booth. It’s much harder to undo something than to do something nefariously done. They can then scream about “activism” and “tyranny.”

I learned the hard way (divorces can be really nasty) that if your opponent lies and accuses you of something terrible that they themselves have done, it is almost impossible to then turn around say “but, THEY did it!” You look weak and foolish.

Nana…

WHAT military? They’re mostly overseas fighting in illegal and ill-thought-out wars. The National Guard is all over the place and not where they belong…. at home. Even with manpower, all their assets and equipment is gone. Seriously.

Fox – who knows… maybe they WANT it to degenerate into legal wrangling.

That’s a lot more able to be politically neutral.

» Posted By PocketWatch On March 9, 2011 @ 7:35 pm

Fox – this reminds of the same tactic the Bushiacs used… get a pet lawyer to say that torture isn’t torture, that the US does not have to follow international law, and that the Constitution doesn’t need to be followed… and even negate habeas corpus, which has only been around since forever…

Then claim that it’s legal because a lawyer says it is… “not MY fault” governing…

Abby, I have considered it a Banana Republic since the 2000 “elections.”

KQ – she was on a picket line, I bet!

The bastids!

» Posted By PocketWatch On March 9, 2011 @ 6:58 pm

Fox… no….. but I’m sure she has plans… ROFL

Adonai – true enough, I suppose.

(And I fully expect to be clawed to death if she ever finds out I posted this picture.)
