Bootsie the cat is the first pet in my memory

He was a beautiful longhaired grey hat with markings like a tuxedo cat

Every Saturday my Mom would give him a shampoo in the kitchen sink then he would sit on a towel on the kitchen table while Mom blew his fur out with the hair dryer

He also let me dress him in my dolls clothes and put him in the doll carriage or crib where he would snooze whiel I rocked him or wheeled him around

I had him for about 4 years but when I was about 8 years old, he went out one evening a met his end under the wheels of a car

I like the Candaians though --- maybe we could send them all to North Korea

Bootsie was a good cat to tolerate the hair dryer, but then he might have preferred that to the bath. I was an expert, as an adult, at quickly bathing the cats.

A very special cat indeed.

My Gaia would have tolerated a child doing that to her.

I don't think we have EVER been without a dog.....I shall have to check the pictures later today....we probably have a photo. For someone reason when I was about two years old, I like to throw kittens into the washing machine, so I had to be watched closely.....

I think I was The Bad Seed.

What do you mean, was?

DakotaCelt · « **Reply #167 on:** October 22, 2012, 07:08:37 PM »

Buff, a dog I had many years ago had a fetish for blowdryers. He was annoyed if you were drying you hair and he did not get blasted by it. He loved it...

Amtrak is booked. I'm ready for DC.

But is DC ready for you?

Second feature of the evening is "The Adventures of Don Juan" with Errol Flynn. Not a very good movie, but the oddities in it have kept my interest. The sight of Raymond Burr in Spanish garb and mustache was truly silly.

And speaking of pets, my friend Margo will be feeding/watching my cat, Ebonie. I've fed/watched her cats so often that she offered without any hesitation.

Enjoy "boot camp". It seems they might have sent you awhile back.

If it is like state training sessions, it is only offered certain times and with limited spaces available.

Tonight, I've got the VAI TV version of "Kiss Me, Kate" with Alfred Drake and Patricia Morison. It's only 75 minutes or so, but it's really fun. Julie Wilson, Jack Klugman and Bill Hayes in the supporting cast.

I saw the original Hllmark Hall of Fame broadcast. I loved it. The orchestrations are the original Broadway ones.

Alfred Drake is so much better than Howard Keel, more sex, more ham, more vocal range. The whole thing is wonderful.

But he is no Brent Barrett

I can see Raymond Burr with a beard and a German accent but a Spanish costume just does not seem right..

Are you thinking of Canada because of the snow, or because of the debate?
