The puppies are going apeshit.

Infinity bookcase -- neat looking idea... but practically, how do you get at the books in the middle?!

Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.

A not-for-Hec link: Guidelines for Cats

The humans would have you believe that those lumps under the covers are their feet and hands. They are lying. They are actually Bed Mice, rumored to be the most delicious of all the mice in the world, though no cat has ever been able to catch one. Rumor also has it that only the most ferocious attack can stun them long enough for you to dive under the covers to get them. Maybe YOU can be the first to taste the Bed Mouse!

Remember all those neato Schoolastic books? Here's a Flicker set of them: Nostalgia for the Scholastic Book Club, circa '60's & '70's

Do kids still read those Ramona books? ("Ramona the Pest", etc?)

Because books.

Yeah, the pups are definitely feeling their oats today. I'm a little worried about the camera.

That's what I was wondering.

Ooh - I read this one: Snow Treasure (1942 / 1958)

About kids in Norway during WWII who helped smuggle Norway's gold away from the Nazis....

Back tattoos of the mother is that you are absolutely right - Ame

To me it looks like there are no backs to the bookcase, so the middle is actually looking at the back of the books placed from the outside. I think. Now I'm confused.

Oh, the infinity bookcase is just some art thing: [link]

eta:

"In the beginning was the word, the written word is unto eternity. A bookcase in the form of a lemniscate (the mathematical sign for infinity), full of books, words, shows the cycle of art. The way in which artworks endure, sometimes concealed, sometimes at eye level, close enough to touch, then forgotten for years, pushed away behind other books. The eternal performance of art. The public constantly changes in age and era. The words remain the same, and yet what is read changes from one age to the next."

Now let us crush something soft and watch it fountain blood. That is a girlish thing to want to do, yes?

I read this one: Snow Treasure (1942 / 1958)

Me too! Very possibly the world's only sledding thriller! (And definitely the place I learned the word "bullion".)
