-Would you like an autograph too?  Or would she like yours?  ;)

You can tell Miss Kitt that she has a fan who almost wore out his 45 RPM recording of "I Want to Be Evil" - and that was over 50 years ago!

TCB, send me your address in a private message, and I will send some homegrown catnip for Angel. Maybe she can use up some energy on it.


Thank you, Laura, she will love it.

Well, I've heard peep one at least.  Margaret called - I guess she got hung up doing other things yesterday.  Happy to report that she loved the new pages and, most importantly, was never bored (because this is a mystery and one of detection, a lot of it is conversations, and it's hard to keep that interesting).  She only had two tiny little comments, which she's right about (I knew she'd have the reaction to one thing in particular, and I'd almost taken it out, then forgot about it), so I'm fixing those, then moving on to Chapter Thirteen.





Shouldn't you skip Chapter 13, and just rename it Chapter 14?

Ben, my compliments on the MARY POPPINS review.  You were wonderful as always.  It would be so cool to actually here one of your broadcasts sometime when I am in Great Britain.

Got peep number two - not a total disaster, but won't get the bulk of the CDs until tomorrow, hopefully in the morning.  The good news is I got enough to package up all CDs and get them out first thing in the morning.  I just finished said packaging.

I'm always late in hearing "new" artists.
I've just discovered the music of UK group "The Puppino Sisters"  What fun.

Someone maybe able to locate and post a music link.  It's way beyond me.

Greetings from the library in New Lebanon, OH!  If you put your ear up against your computer, you might hear DH Richard's sacred harp (shape-note singing) group raising the roof on this little building.

Whoops.   Puppini Sisters. The album was released in the UK in about July.  Great version of Blondie's "Heart of Glass" (Think Andrews Sisters!)

Track was played on radio here this morning. I checked on the HMV shop site  London.

Cuddly polar bear cub better off dead, activist says

BERLIN, Germany (AP) -- Berlin Zoo's abandoned polar bear cub Knut looks cute, cuddly and has become a front-page media darling, but an animal rights activist insisted Monday he would have been better off dead than raised by humans.

"Feeding by hand is not species-appropriate but a gross violation of animal protection laws," animal rights activist Frank Albrecht was quoted as saying by the mass-circulation Bild daily, which has featured regular photo spreads tracking fuzzy Knut's frolicking.

"The zoo must kill the bear."

When Knut -- or "Cute Knut," as the 8.7 kilogram (19 pound) bear has become known -- was born last December, his mother ignored him and his brother, who later died. Zoo officials intervened, choosing to raise the cub themselves.

Oh, I forgot to mention, that my girl Angel turns 14 at the end of this month.  And she has more energy and appetite than she has had for years.

That's wonderful TCB.  I came home and no messes on the floor. Both girls tried the new wet food and both really seemed to like it.  They are now busy looking out the open window at the squirrels in the yard.  I am very happy that Boo seems to be keeping her food down and hopefully we can get her over her little binge and purge problem

I've been feeding my cat the same brand of food...Friskies dry and canned.  I have been getting a whole bunch of different flavors of canned, but still it's all be Friskies (from Costco and Fred Meyer).  Should I branch out into different brands??

Not if it isn't causing any problems.
