Andi, I can now report that I have put my hand on all the walls and there is no heat. I also have three smoke detectors for my one bedroom apartment.
Cobblies? ::shudder::

[NAFDA] Spike-centric discussion. Lusty, lewd (only occasionally crude), risqué (and frisqué), bawdy (Oh, lawdy!), flirty ('cuz we're purty), raunchy talk inside. Caveat lector.

The preface begins, "These are the stories that the Dogs tell when the fires burn high and the wind is from the north."
Simak rocks. Have you read I Goblin Reservation?

Thrive to spite them
I don't know what got into Penny a few weeks ago, but she was in her favorite spot (under the bathroom sink) and she started growling and hissing. I ran in the hall and startled her out but her tail was puffed up probably 3 times the size.
The bathroom sink/cabinet has a small squre hole cut in it for the pipe to run down and she's always sticking her nose trying climb into the hole. There's nothing under there, but it was like she saw something.
Will thinks that maybe a cat got under the mobile home but I don't see how. Or that the heater scared her but she's never reacted like that.
Freaked me out and she's never acted like that again.

There's nothing inherently scary about cobblies. They're from other dimensions and only the dogs can sense them.

I have read every word Simak wrote multiple times. I probably love Waystation the most, but it's like picking a favorite child. As far as I'm concerned, he's sf's most under-rated author, and, at his best, he's as lyrical as Bradbury.

I interviewed him 30 years ago, and he rode in my car as part of transport for a convention he attended at Brigham Young University.
Yes, you may touch my awesomeness!
He was very nice.

Love is stronger than death and harder than sorrow. Those who practice it are fierce like the light of stars traveling eons to pierce the night.
Thank you for putting my mind at ease, bonny.

We talked and corresponded with him when he was supposed to be the guest of honor at the DeepSouthCon my ex and I chaired. He complimented my story in Asimov's. He had to cancel, and Al Williamson, he of sainted memory, filled in at the last minute.
I have my own awesomeness.

As usual.
