Cat Stuff - But, where's the subtitles?

The Infinite Cat Project

I do love cats and there's no such thing as too many kitty pictures, right? So whoever thought this website up is a genius. From the website:

The story of a monumental concatenation...

Shortly after the turn of the false millennium, or early in the year 2000, I was cruising a favored Apple computer forum and chanced upon the picture you see to your left. That's Frankie, the progenitor of the Infinite Cat Project, admiring the beauty of a flower. (Major kudos to Paul Hamilton, owner of Frankie, for kicking this whole thing off.)

Not long after that another visitor to the same forum beheld his cat growling at the picture of Frankie and summarily posted an image of that event. I thought this sequence held promise and had my own cat, Poozy, join the queue, a progression that now boasts over 1400 cats.

There's always room at the table for one more kitty. So join us, won't ye?

Wow. A church made out of LEGOS.

This is really something to see. It must have taken many hours of work to set it up. The lady who did this has assembled quite an interesting collection of photographs of her LEGO church. GO SEE IT.

I hope that legally, something very, very bad can be done to this person... painful is good, too.

My Yahoo Avatar

I'm not exactly sure why I have a Yahoo avatar because I'm not into chat rooms and instant messaging but I do go to Yahoo Answers on occasion and try to help people out. I just stumbled onto the whole "make-your-own-avatar" thing and it looked like fun, so here it is.

She's a long blonde-haired hippie in raggy jeans and peasant blouse with love beads and showing the peace sign. The suitcase is there because I've lived all over the world and because I've travelled (by car) all over the United States. I'm not from New York but they didn't seem to have a suitcase with an "I Love L.A." sticker or I would have taken that one. And I've only ever been to Buffalo, New York and that's only because I went to the Canadian side of Niagara Falls and we decided to visit Buffalo just to add New York to the list of States we'd been to (my Mom and Grandma and brother and me).

My little black Kitty is there beside me as he always is in real life. Except now, as I type this, because it's early morning and I've just given my Mom her morning insulin and Kitty knows this is the time when I now go outside for a smoke and a cup of coffee and he gets locked up in a bedroom while I'm outside. He hates that but Kitty knows how to open the screen door so he'd escape to the outdoors in a heartbeat if he could. And, every time Kitty makes it outside, he costs me hundreds of dollars in vet bills (other cats beat him up or he eats something bad or something terrible happens). Kitty is forever an indoor cat.

Anyway, in anticipation of being locked up, Kitty is hiding under my Mom's hospital bed. Kitty forgets he has a long tail and it always gives him away. He cracks me up. But, my arthritis won't let me bend to get him so I have to trick him out from under that bed. I know he'd much rather be sitting on his Kitty tree by the big picture window, spying on the sqirrels and birds in th eback yard. It's only a matter of time. If he thinks I've forgotten about him, he'll come slinking over to his Kitty tree. So here I am at the computer, typing away.

So... there you have my hippie avatar. Make love not war.

Great Cat Picture!

Our Lady of the Dead Cat Carcasses

Hundreds of Dead Cats Found

EAST ORANGE, N.J. (AP)

May 20, 2005 - Public works employees in East Orange today plan to remove hundreds of cat carcasses from the back yard of a woman who operates one of New York City's no-kill animal shelters.

Animal welfare officers say they were sickened by the stench when they arrived at Marlene Kess' home yesterday. They found 48 living cats in the house and more than 200 dead cats stuffed in garbage bags. Kess, who moved from Manhattan in July, was cited for several health code violations. She's also charged with failing to properly shelter cats.
