Well....

Mom put the Kitty Krapper trainer thing on the toilet with the lid down instead of with the lid and seat up. Before I noticed there was a big noise and the cat came shooting out of the bathroom. The trainer was on the floor and litter spilled everywhere. Evidently everything went haywire when the cat jumped up onto the trainer.

Moved the trainer back to the floor, and the cat still pees in it, but poops on the carpet in the bathroom instead. The bathroom is half tile and half carpet. Moved the litter box thing to where the cat was pooping and he just poops next to it.

Brought back in the old litter box. Cat doesn't use it for anything. Still pees in the trainer and poops on the carpet in the bathroom. Removed the trainer and he pees and poops on the carpet. Put the trainer back and he pees in it, but Still Poops on the carpet!

The cat poops on the carpet, doesn't let me get close to it since I took him to get neutered, and refuses to sit on Mom's lap (the reason we got another cat was to replace Mom's lap warmer). So had decided to put him on Craigslist and if no-one reponeded take him out the the no-kill sanctuary.

Yesterday Mom woke up and was slurring her speech. Called home care. Nurse checked her out and wasn't having a mini-stroke, but was dehydrated. Having problems getting her to eat or drink anything the last couple of days.

Anyway, the nurse that came out to check her kept commenting on how much she liked the cat. Told her she could have him. Even after telling her about the poop problem and not being a lap cat she took him. Liked to never got him back in that cat carrier.

Going to call Free to Live and see if they have a good lap cat for Mom.

Steering wheel looks on correct side to me. Maybe you are looking at it upside down?

We call puppies that look like that coyotes, pronounced ky•oats. I think it's Aztec for jackal.

Good Morning folks.

Dang, yesterday was busy at work. I missed my morning nap and afternoon nap and the lunchtime nap was cut short. Some dang paying customer came in and wanted me to print him some aerials. I have one minor question about exactly how he wants the print so I called him. He does not answer and it goes to a recording that said he has not setup voice mail and it hangs up.

I found that puppy on the road up to Mt Hamilton, near San Jose.


And I can't remember how many time I turned out from a t intersection in that Mitsubishi 5hitbox and found myself on the wrong side of the road.

Been looking at old photos with the little munchkin.

Back when I was a kid my buddy and I wanted to go to the base hobby shop on the Navy base next to Hickam AFB. We talked my buddy's mom into driving us over there. We wanted to get a new airplane kit for each of us and that is hard to carry on a bike. The Navy hobby shop was a lot nicer and had a better selection than the Air Force hobby shop.

As we left the hobby shop she pulled out and started driving down the left lane. I was a smart enough kid to know you can't correct adults but my eyes got real big. I finally started wimpering and muttering and I finally yelled "you are in the wrong lane" and she calmly changed to the right lane. She said they had just moved from England after a long tour and she keeps forgetting. After that we just bugged my mom to take us.

I'm posting in this thread, because for years I've been seeing it bumped back up to the top and I have no idea what it's about!!! So, I'm leaving my mark: sand_man was here!

Just start on page one and read it all. You will find the secrets of the universe explained and deep meaningful conversations on a very high intellectual level. The parts about nipple lube and toothpaste is just a diversion to throw the unwashed masses off the trail of the great Stijn truth!

Shouldn't be difficult to get oneself fired. Just text a picture of your junk to a co-worker. Think they call it sexual harassment.

What if every country has Ninjas and we only know about the Japanese because they suck at it.

Long night last night. Finally got to bed this morning about 3:00. The driveway is clear though.

Rick, on that 9 1/4 rear end, they replaced all the bearing while they were in there and the noise went away, mostly. He said his rollback was the same and it the noise went back to normal after some miles were put on it. He checked the ring and pinion and said they looked great and the bearing wasn't even that bad, but enough to throw off the alignment and now that it is back to correct alignment it will wear differently for a bit. The noise is more like the rear end in the Cobra, but I can hear that because it is 15 inches from my butt. I trust the shop for most everything but wasn't sure on this after your comment before.

I have looked at those 1911s. I don't like the trigger on some of their other semi-autos. Lots of creep. These I hear all good things about.

All the skeeters around here must be dead or hibernating.

A little over two weeks to go before we get to spend some "home improvement" time in SoCal.
