I adore those cat ladders! It looks like Europe is being advanced again.
Giles, if you would like to get by in American society, then you are going to have to follow our traditions. You're the patriarch. You have to host the festivities, or it's all meaningless.

Weekend: bowling and margaritas (a combination that ensures many gutter balls from me); baking zucchini bread; seeing Harry Potter.
Jess, this is my favorite of your Hilton pictures: [link] That's AMAZING.

seeing Harry Potter
I'd like to do that, but alas, my wife is not into the movie going. Things come out on DVD so quickly these days, it's not that big a deal though.

Just eat a muffin whitey!
See, if the muffin was as savory as the "bagels" I like (I'm thinking Au Bon Pain's asiago cheese bagels), it wouldn't be a muffin anymore.

Why did Darth Vader cross the road? To get to the Dark Side!
I skipped and got all confused that everyone was wishing Kat a happy birthday because I thought it was on Sunday. Then I remembered the b.org tradition of asking about everyone's weekend. Duh!
Happy birthday Kat! Now I want to make cupcakes.
ION, I read this exchange in way the wrong way:
tommyrot: An extra-bizarre case of "someone shoving something unnatural up his butt": [link]
Jesse: I had a "bagel" from Panera.
And now I really must apologize to Jesse for even thinking that. Sorry Jesse, my bad.

Electromagnetic candy! - Stark
Anyone know of any friendly and natural(-ish) ways to discourage neighborhood cats from wandering through an unfenced back yard?
(I have no unreasonable illusions that someone's going to leap to my rescue here, but I figure the hivemind is a great compilation of interesting facts, so...what's the harm? :)
Some friends have moved into a rental with a great backyard, but now the neighborhood outdoor cats have started camping out there. Is there a scent or something that would discourage kitties, while not-bothering, say, birds?
Danke!
