"Remembering" Elvis Presley on the anniversary of his death. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=4x2n9mR3SSs

Good luck Nate, hopefully no further visits will be required after this (last?) one. Regarding naps: many years ago we were implementing a new Finance system in our Japanese subsidiary. The Controller there was a smart and nice gent Yanaga-san. EVERY day of the 2 weeks I was there - and I was told it was basically every day - he would stop work at pretty much precisely noon, eat a brown bag lunch for 5-10 minutes, and then simply fold his arms on the table, rest his head, and nap for the remainder of lunch hour. Always back up by 1:00. I can still picture him to this day.....certainly one of the more relaxed and easygoing people with whom I've worked.

Yes, noisy cats can be fun and not fun. Of our two cats, one is a pretty noisy one; he will come right up to me and meow in my face, and the SECOND I move my hand to pat him will purr like a machine. But it does get annoying when we're trying to go to bed, or early in the morning.

Crap, sorry to hear Nate. Hope the situation resolves soon, and you can sleep peacefully sans racket(s)

Yeesh, bummer to hear, but glad no major incidents so far. Maybe the bat-proofers will do you and neighbor - or perhaps several neighbors? - for a discounted rate....

That cat looks rather regal!

^^^ Cool. I heard that internally in the pseudo Morgan Freeman voice

Thanks for that Ric. Great read, the book is on my list now too

Happy Birthday Tyll!

Yes, I want to hear your Liverpool accent

And don't forget to let her redecorate..... Seriously, glad things are settling again. When we moved to our house, our cat took to it VERY well, exploring every little inch. And I would definitely have classified her as an anxious cat....who knows.....

Pre-season game and all, but Tim Tebow just QB'd a touchdown drive.....don't know if I should be happy or cry.......

Nice, Carl, congrats!

Shit, just saw the pics now.....again, sorry Mike. Will raise a glass to Denver as well.

So sorry to hear, RIP Denver. Pics are blocked here at work, but will check them out tonight......

Good to hear, Al. Your description made me chuckle, every time I think of novacaine I think of the Bill Cosby routine.....

Ian, I have a few Au Revoir Simone albums, good light fun. Reminiscent a bit of Stereolab in some ways methinks. Me:

Ghost Kitteh FTW

Quite eclectic, Iain! Good luck on all accounts. And echo the good lucks to CJ as well

Very Happy Birthday!

RIP, big man. He had lost his wife recently, too.....very sad.....

Holy...uh....crap!

Perfectly stated! Glad Gumball/Cumby has felt comfortable enough to take over.

At the NY spring meet, Drew said that - while the phones & amps operate on lower voltage - they should work out of Stax gear. THINK he said Regular, but he may have also included Pro, outputs.....

Happy Birthday, and untold thanks!
