kitties

Isn't that a cute little kitty in that picture below?


As you can probably tell, that's the neck of a t-shirt. But before you think I'm getting soft on my anti-cat stance...

Examine the shirt more closely. Here's the shirt, and as you can see--it illustrates birds getting revenge on those mean ole kitty cats, to quote Tweetie-bird. Or at least the birds are trying--so far the cat is only tempted by that fish dangling in the air.

In any case, that's the shirt I'm wearing right now. I think it's important to let everyone else know where you draw the line. And I draw my line at cats.

Speaking of lines, another is Windows. That crappy OS is trying to reboot my laptop and it's really starting to annoy me. I can't wait to replace Windows with Linux on my laptop---but unfortunately as long as I need it the laptop at work I have to stick with damn Windows. At least on my desktop at home I can use Ubuntu.

BTW, does anyone reading this watch the TNT show Leverage? I really liked it last season but this current season (second week now) just doesn't seem as good to me. The villains are as bad and the plotting of the devious scheme the Leverage team comes up with are kinda lame. A big disappointment so far for the sophomore season.

Threadless is an awesome t-shirt place. Miss KIA has quite a few of their things and I have several.
I have the Viking shirt, (of course) and the sunflower one.
LOVE both of them! They're great!

I love Leverage! I loved every second of the first season and I am loving the second season too - any excuse to see Elliot fight is good enough for me!

I have not watched last nights episode yet, but I liked the first two well enough. Maybe it will take a few weeks for them to hit a stride. I am looking forward to getting the first season on DVD too!

BTW - I don't really care for cats much either. I don't dislike them, I just don't want any of their hair (fir?) getting on my and making me itch!

I loved last season and really looked forward to this one. I only saw the first episode. It was all right, but I admit that it was a little disappointing. I blamed it on the topic -- fighting is of no interest to me (and super-hero fighter crap always annoys me. This episode had way too much of that!). And the last "scheme" took the cooperation of too many outsiders for it not to have fallen apart. But besides that, everyone seems to have lost their edge. It's hard to believe that all these loners reformed and were lost out there in the big bad world. Still, I'm going to continue watching it... hopefully, the first one was just a clumsy contrivance to bring the team together again (though doing it above a bar doesn't seem too secure!).

That T-shirt shows how stupid birds are more than revenge on a cat. Cats are smart and very patient -- I'd bet that cat would wait for the birds to get tired rather than bite on the fish. Who wouldn't rather kill a poultry dinner than settle for a stinky fish? Hmmm....

Cats are wonderful - soft and furry and purring and warm and loving and mysterious

Too bad men can't be more like them.

You'd be surprised at how high cats can jump if they want something! :-)

Nitroflex at home

Image
I mentioned a few days ago that I'd purchased off of Craig's List an exercise machine. A Nitroflex, to be more specific, for the grand sum of $75. The boxes you see to the left were bought by the seller as discontinued merchandise over a year ago and stored in his back yard storage shed. You might be able to see some of the bugs and such that had made their homes on these boxes. I left them out on my deck for a few days before opening them to allow the insects to leave gracefully or die in the sun. The picture to the left is the pieces from the box, unboxed, and up in one of my upstairs bedrooms. For the most part it wasn't difficult to move it around though two pieces were heavy and a number of them were kinda long and bulky to be wandering about the house with. Surprisingly, this kit didn't require any extra tools. There were two allen keys and one combo wrench included in the boxes and that was all it took to put it together. The whole thing only took about half an h...

ankle update

S ince a few people object to seeing my feet --poor misdirected souls--I have the two pictures below hidden behind links. Behold them at your own risk! *evil laugh* Actually they're not scary though the first one is a little colorful. T he first picture shows my ankle and foot from the side, as labeled. You can see a lot of general edema of the entire foot. There's also a good bit of discoloration of the ankle area and to a lesser degree the top of the foot all the way down to the toes. The side view is a lot worse in this regard than the top view. T he second picture shows the two feet from the top so you can compare the somewhat normal looking right foot to the injured left foot. There's not much abnormal color on this view but you can see the "sausage like" swelling of the left foot. It's this swelling that is causing my main problem--I can't get the foot into my boots and I need the boots to support the ankle. Damn Catch-22. Side view, looking inward ...

Ostrich poop found here

Image
I took these pictures last Fall while visiting the NC Zoo. On the left you can see what appears to be a nice polite ostrich just wandering around. This impression soon turns out to be false when her dowdy tail feathers raise up and reveal a puckered anus. Ewwww! If you look carefully, you can see that she's made a deposit on the ground. More ewwww! Feel free to click on the image to make them bigger. Details can make all the difference in these shots. In other matters, aren't those really bony legs they have? And couldn't they have a little more color?
