Largo di Torre Argentina
Today’s post (and tomorrow’s too) is for my daughter, who at times (like much of the internet) can be somewhat cat-obsessed. Rome is a great place to visit if you are a cat lover. That’s because there is a square downtown, Largo di Torre Argentina, that has been set aside as a sanctuary for the […]
Just Friends
Actually they really aren’t friends. The black and white one barely tolerates the other and would probably be happier as an only cat. He’s just too lazy to leave when she invades his space. Today’s post is being offered in the hope that you will re-post, re-tweet and re-whatever it. After all, the internet is […]
Christmas Tree Decorations
You wouldn’t believe my day yesterday. Or maybe you would. Anyway, I didn’t have a chance to finish the post I had planned for today. It is the first day of winter after all. So instead I’m repeating the most popular post of last year’s Christmas season. I still immensely dislike this cat, but at […]
Cat Litter
I may have mentioned from time to time that I am not a fan of either of my daughter’s cats, particularly this one. She’s a needy animal, more dog than cat and always in the way as she begs for affection. I was pleased therefore that she decided to package herself for disposal. The box […]
First Sunday of Advent…
…and nothing has really changed from last year. My daughter’s cat, who usually behaves like a dog (all the worst dog features imaginable), for some reason spends Advent thinking she is a Christmas tree ornament. I’m sure I’ll get some much better shots of her in the tree before Christmas Day arrives.
The Pet Debate
When my children were younger I wrote a weekly column, “Modern Parenting” for The Pembroke Observer newspaper. Being a stay-at-home dad was rare in our small town in 1991; people wanted to hear about my adventures. When I started this blog I promised to republish some of those old pieces, then I got sidetracked. Today […]
Silly Cat Picture
Given that the internet was invented for the mass sharing of cat pictures, and that not as many people as I would like have appreciated this week’s series on Bellevue House, I guess I might as well lower my standards and post a cat photo. My daughter took this one this week of the eviler […]
Techological Failure
I had what I thought was a pretty good post for today. Mind you, my opinion n these things can be suspect. I wrote it on the bus yesterday coming home from work. The words flowed effortlessly. They were both amusing and thought provoking as I expounded on a rather curious experience I had with […]
2003 Cats
In a shameless attempt to drive traffic to this site, and knowing that the internet was invented for sharing cat pictures, today is a cat photo essay. I found these in a file labelled 2003 on my backup drive. given that I am not a big cat fan, I can only assume these were taken […]
Today’s Post Isn’t…
Isn’t what I am not sure. I had several ideas, and a few things almost ready to go, but didn’t make the time to finish them. But I didn’t want to leave you with nothing to read. Which got me to thinking. Jerry Seinfeld famously established one of the most successful shows in television history, […]
