Cats.........

I think I've shot my mouth off just a few times on this blog about cats and dogs.

Well, we are getting a cat.

Since our son was about 5 he has been asthmaatic and allergic to dust, pet hair, etc..... He is willing to get a weekly allergy shot so he and his sister can get a cat. It's going to be a few weeks until we go to the SPCA and pick one out........it'll be interesting to see what kind of cat the kids pick out.

I actually like cats, they just have a different kind of personality then dogs. Dogs fetch things and wag their tails.

Cats just kinda hang out.

I'm curious as to what name they are gonna pick out for this animal. I vote for Dusty, since that is what has kept us from getting a cat in the past..........

I figure this might be the last nice weekend we have here in central PA so I am heading out for a bike ride with my camera Saturday afternoon. I love just stopping whenever I see something that needs a picture taken of it. Hopefully I'll have a bunch of pictures to blog after the weekend.

On my last post I made a comment about this article concerning the Methodist Church defrocking a lesbian minister. I was brought up as a Methodist and the church I went to (and still am a member of) welcomed everyone or at least that's the way I perceived it. I have to admit, I'm not active in my church at this point.........but if I was-I'd have a problem with how this issue was handled.

I'm not Catholic and I might not understand everything the Catholic religion stands for and believes in but I think they have a few problems they need to address. Maybe they oughta let priests get a little action on the side so they can blow off some steam when they are off duty.

Am I serious?

Of course not.

But they do have to get a handle on this situation and the sooner the better.

This is a great idea, but who the hell wrote the headline for this piece?

I don't want to bash Bush, but I can't help myself. It's like shooting fish in a barrel. 3 more years of this idiot? God help us all.

I gotta tell ya, I'm not much of a roller coaster fan but if I ever win big on the lottery-I'm getting one of these. I've been to the drag races before and the real thing is even quicker. Something like 0 to 10o mph in about a second. You'd have to see it to believe it.

"Brownie, you're doing a heck of a job." Here what worries me, the whole administration is probably full of people like Mike.

Porno?(pdf file link SFW-it's not porno) Not my thing, but he oughta have the right to do whatever he wants as long as he isn't harming anyone. Maybe the cops lost their copy of the Bill of Rights. What about all the children who could possibly view porn sites? Maybe their parents oughta be doing a better job of watching where their kids go on the internet.

Yikes. I could spend a couple hours on this website.

Now granted most any bike you buy at Wal-Mart is going to be a pile of shit, but maybe they should spend a few minutes setting up and making sure each bike is adjusted properly before they sell it. I know the bike I bought there for our son needed just about everything adjusted when I brought it home.

Sounds like the kid had a loose quick release on his bike. This website thinks quick releases are evil. A little information on how to operate a quick release might help these uninformed parents.

Doesn't appear that his parents read the instruction manual to know how to check and make sure it was adjusted correctly. Is it 100% Wal-Marts fault? I'd say 50-50 but if they woulda spent a few dollars more at a real bike shop-they most likely would have never had this problem.

Hey Amy, I call bullshit.

Thanks for reading.

I am not sure why people name cats...

they seldom respond to their names

get a cat
grow some cat nip
and well
let the cat behave like a furry fish that swims freely about the house

I like cats fine
but am definitely a dog person
