'Serenity'
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.
Our neighborhood mountain lion: [link] Dang. That's a big animal. The video of him going over the fence is pretty awesome.
Our friend's husband is Fish and Game. Normally he is out there chasing or shooting tranqs, but today he was coming back from Sacramento, so just coordinating from home. WEIRD.
Holy shit, Liese -- I'm glad you were OK, at least!
You people don't really make me want to drive more.
Kitty!
I am just saying, that's a giant ass cat. It would have freaked me out if it were in my yard.
Drama at the theatre tonight! A man and his girlfriend were in the lobby waiting for the house to open when the man's wife arrived! Big fight! Police called! The crew was very excited!
I'm glad it's being released, here in Utah the standard op is to just shoot the thing on sight. Stupid polliticians.
KITTY!
Oh and congrats, Gud! Fingers-crossed congrats to Consuela and msbelle...

I was quite startled to learn that cougars grow larger than leopards.
OK, and now I want to give a shout-out to our federal government--or at least the National Personnel Records Center, who may just be some organization. For some reason, Utah wants a copy of Hubby's military discharge papers, his DD214, before they finalize his driver's license. Something about putting a veteran's notice on his license. Three days ago I filled out the webpage to request the document, and they wanted a copy of his signature. I don't have a printer at home and couldn't figure out how to save the correct page so I could print it at work. So I handwrote the required info, had Hubby sign it, and mailed it off the next day. And today I got an email from the NPRC saying "Hi, we got your note, the average time we get those docs out is in ten days."
So kudos to the Post Office for getting the thing to the office so quick, and kudos to that office for acknowledging it so quick. Sometimes it all does work.
And won't life be a huge mess if we ever lose the Net.
Okay, hello, that kitty would have freaked me out too. Biggest thing I've seen lurking undomesticated was a raccoon, but it was a filthy huge one. But that things just screams predator (in the way that screaming is not generally their schtick). Mother Nature reminding you why she put those bits on your tabby.
Good thing it was out near home. There was an escaped tiger (or maybe lion--lion lion) near Simi when i worked there and they just killed it, because the risk of tranquing not working was too high, and where are you gonna put one? Sad, but I doubt that cat's life had been great up to that point either. I mean, Simi.
