It seems like most of the cat pictures I’ve taken lately are of Koshka. Koshka does the cute pose very well and often, and Kaylee’s cuteness generally comes in the form of astonishing vocalizations.
Police Make Arrest In Bizarre Manchester Bank Robbery - WMUR Manchester
What was this guy thinking? That nobody would notice a tree walking down the street? The robber showed no weapon — I expect the tellers handed over the money because they were stunned by the absurdity.
OK — this is the state with the First in the Nation(tm) Presidential Primary. Are people going to take our opinions seriously when even our criminals are nut-jobs?
(Pardon me while I wipe the tears of laughter out of my eyes…)
Jenny is being silly today, so I thought I’d take her up on the “Needs…” meme.
The concept is simple. Take your first name, go to Google, and type in a search for “first name needs”
Some of the things that Anne needs:
… to win sexiest Veg!
… a job.
… to be where the action is.
… a group of at least 6 people…
… a miracle.
… more lips.
… to learn to accept things as they are.
… fresh air now and then.
A sexy Veg? Who knew?
(Note: If anybody wants to make a donation so that I can buy an elephant model, I’d be tickled pink!)
Hey, I’m all set for any sort of disaster. I’ve got my FEMA emergency kit, and my plastic sheets and duct tape… and my Stainless Steel Colander(tm) to shield me from Republican mind-control brain-rays.
Just a little graphic to help y’all get fired up for the upcoming midterm elections.
Thanks andante! This is the first time I’ve ever been tagged for a meme, so here goes:
Seven Things To Do Before I Die
1. Pay off my debts. That seems to be a biggie with just about everyone.
2. Travel to Russia. Naturally, I’ll have to take Cousin Bryan with me, since my command of the Russian language is limited to remarking that I’m hungry, asking where the bathroom is, and stating that I prefer not to argue about politics.
3. Finish off all the partially completed craft and sewing projects I’ve been accumulating over the past 6 years. All previous UFP’s were destroyed in the fire, but I certainly don’t want to have to go through that again.
4. (seconding Michael, thirding andante) Watch George W Bush’s impeachment trial on CSPAN. While drinking a fine bottle of champagne. And laughing my arse off. (Of course, I’d have to have my debts paid off in order to afford cable again. I’d settle for reading about it on CNN.com)
5. Have tea with His Holiness, the Dalai Lama.
6. Have the chance to find out how many beads are enough beads.
7. Finish the novel I’ve been working on for the past 25-30 years.
Seven Things I Cannot Do
1. I can’t draw a straight line — even with a ruler.
2. I can’t do wire wrapping, an electronics assembly thing involving thin wires and rows upon rows of tiny pins. I certainly hope this has been replaced by a more sensible method of manufacturing backplanes by this time.
3. I can?t listen to bombastic, fundamentalist, pulpit-pounding, screaming preachers. (Ditto, andante!)
4. I can’t listen to Pat Buchanan, either. Every time I see him on the tube, I have to run away screaming.
5. I can’t drive on the Daniel Webster Highway South (Nashua, NH) without hyperventilating.
6. I can’t tolerate the sound of running car engines at 5:30am in the winter while folks are warming their cars up just beneath my bedroom window. What a waste of gasoline!
7. I can’t talk to even minor celebrities without babbling and/or gushing.
Seven Things That Attract Me to…Blogging
1. Being able to express an opinion in public — without having to engage in Public Speaking.
2. Being able to write whatever I want, and know that somebody, somewhere, will do a fact-check and correct me, if necessary. So far, this has not been necessary. ::wink, wink::
3. Being able to vent without boring the socks off the Professor (my DH) who has heard this all a million times.
4. Being able to opinionate without getting into a screaming fight. I’m terrible at arguing live and in person; I tend to clam up when angry.
5. Being able to exercise my writing skills. You lose what you don’t use (see the comment about finishing that novel).
6. Having a daily connection to others.
7. I’m a ho’ for comments!
Seven Things I Say Most Often
1. This must be Thursday; I never could get the hang of Thursdays.
2. Oopsie!
3. Cheeses H. Christ on a cracker!
4. Oh, no. Not again!
5. Spoot!
6. Smoochies!
7. I dunno, me.
Seven Books That I Love
1. The Lord of the Rings (and all things Tolkien. I stopped counting the number of times I’ve read the Trilogy after 16.)
2. Anne McCaffery’s Pern series
3. The Little Prince
4. The Phantom Tollbooth
5. The Harry Potter series
6. Alice In Wonderland & Alice’s Adventures Through The Looking Glass
7. The Power of Myth
Seven Movies That I Watch Over and Over Again
1. Lord of the Rings
2. Men In Black
3. Pirates of the Caribbean
4. The Princess Bride
5. The Wizard of OZ
6. Harry Potter and the…
7. Star Wars (the first three)

It’s been a slow month or so here in the hills of New Hampster. I see where my favorite right-wing nutjob, Pat Robertson is up to his old tricks threatening small Pennsylvania towns with the Wrath of God(tm), and Bill O’Reilly, that Fox News terrorist sympathizer, is reviving that lame old conspiracy theory regarding Liberals trying to outlaw Christmas. Again.Why don’t these guys think up some new conspiracies to keep us entertained instead of boring us to death with the same old grind?
My cousin Bryan at “Why Now?” offered up a dandy. Or maybe it isn’t… Do we get to vote on it?
