Off-topic discussion. Wanna talk about corsets, duct tape, or physics? This is the place. Detailed discussion of any current-season TV must be whitefonted.
Cats are silly, lack common sense, and are at times very ungraceful. My two sillies have both run into the wall repeatedly.
Both of mine have either jumped without looking or fallen into a tub full of water. So very funny.
I did freak Gilda out the other night by playing a cat sound file a few times. I felt kinda bad when it took a couple of hours to get her calmed down. She was all tense and growly and ready to take on my computer.
Our cats are wonderfully cool and non-cranky. A friend's mom died and we are taking care of her doggie for two weeks while she is home to England. The dog is an excellent guest and gets along well with our pup so we knew that wouldn't be a problem, but to our surprise the cats haven't even hissed at her once.
Of course, our old cat, Datcherie, would not have let a dog in the HOUSE. He barely tolerated human visitors.
Robin, bios are hard. Also, picking pictures is hard. Also, I'm not a spanish captioner or Rioja. Can my bio just be: Yay, me! I have the internet at home! Or maybe I should take Claudia's suggestion, and submit a picture of a fish, say I live with five fish, and my favorite things to do include cooking (fish) and fishing.
That really has a lot of appeal at the moment.
I need to take a shower and sleep. Bleh. Life is so, like, demanding and stuff.
OK this is worth a "heh". Maybe two.
When the artist David Hensel was told that his sculpture of a laughing face had been selected for the Royal Academy's Summer Exhibition, he was thrilled. But his delight turned to puzzlement when he searched the show high and low before discovering that only its plinth was on display.
Somewhere during the selection process - when Royal Academicians choose from among nearly 10,000 works submitted for inclusion by members of the public - the head and the base were separated. And it emerged yesterday that the selectors had judged each on its merits. They admired the plinth enormously but rejected the head.
What's the term for a god who created the universe and then becomes an absentee father?
Clockmaker?
Deadbeat Deity.
Deadbeat god?
No, you know, the belief that there was a god who created the universe, but that god doesn't watch over us, isn't involved in our lives and hurricanes and such.
Deism, maybe.
