When Boris is sleeping, George becomes very needy, and wants to hang out with me.

I only buy hide-A-beds. Need the extra weight to keep them in place.

I know that scene all too well. This is why we can't have nice things! I refuse to buy new curtains!

Yeah, those were a couple thousand. Brought them with us when we moved. Not sure why.

 

[Cadorman]

That's right. Squirrel don't care.

Our dog would be trying to go thru the door. Squirrels are not allowed that close to the house.

Boo just scared it off. When he can't take it anymore he goes all four on the glass, screen or whatever is blocking him.

Don’t mess with me vermin….. this is my yard and you’re not invited to stay.

And just for good measure here is the young Boo destroying curtains.

Yeah, but think back to when you were a kid. Weren’t you actually a little jealous of the cat? Imagine how fun that could be!

 

[iblive]

Yes, we typically have a driver to haul the tents and pick up supplies. That would be ice and beer. And a kiddie pool if one can be found. This takes place the last week of July in Iowa. Hot and humid.

Might you be participating in the Ragbrai deal?

Oh, I never said I stopped him. He has never been disciplined in his life. One of my great experiments. I pretty much have him all the way to unconditional love.

Not this year. I'm not in good enough shape to be able to ride the entire thing drunk. Maybe next year.

Just wondered. When I lived south of the Quad Cities it was big news. Not so much here north of Chicago.

Most people I talk to have never heard of it. Kind of strange when there are so many people from all over the world that ride it. I like when it finishes going up Snake Alley. Seen alot of people grind to a halt and tip over. Back in the olden days they let us ride down it instead. I suppose the liability is too great to do that anymore.

Totally understand.

I’ve had cats all my life. I do remember, though, wondering as a kid how cool it would be to do some of the stuff that the cat did.
