   That's an interesting way to look at it ;)

   Poor kitty. But at least it's not something more serious and hopefully,   
   he'll get over it.   
   Our kitty was with us for 16 years and we don't know how old he was when we   
   first met...he was full grown then.   
   I sure miss him and his constantly demanding attention, and always getting   
   it of course ;)   
   He was a seal point Balinese, a Siamese but with hair at least 50 percent   
   longer.

   The usual situation with me too.

   For sure! I should be so busy!   
      
   Going to Cleveland today for a friend. He's selling his old car and   
   needs a driver to help get it to the buyer.  Kinda inconvienent, but   
   that's what friends are for :-)

   Sounds like a long run. When I used to drive for Schneider, I'd always stay   
   at the Seville facility one county to the west of Akron, and only made a   
   delivery in Youngstown, only a couple of counties to the east, in the same   
   area. Otherwise, never got to see much of Ohio.
