And I just ordered a Squishable Owl. I first wanted the Snail but that was sold out so I went for the owl, which is much cooler. Now I need to think of a name...

darn it - don't seem to have them in the UK....

I live in Holland and was able to order them, although the shipping fee is quite high. I wanted one for a long time and my Christmas/end of year bonus was more than other years so I decided to get one.

Kenny - your portrait is lovely!

I'm still working on the never-ending paper...

Also, I've decided to try my hand at learning Russian (I've been on a Slavic mythology kick all month, and a some of the books I'm reading have untranslated Russian quotes. I can get the gist of what the quotes say, but I'd love to read Russian fluently). I just put a textbook on hold at the library and I'm going to pick it up later today.

Congratulations! I am extremely impressed with your talent.

Do you also paint? I would very much like to see one of your paintings if you do.

Cheers.

Thanks Nohmi....see the Art Gallery link in my sig. I do graphite, digital painting and photography a bit.

Still more tweaking to do before I consider it live (I'm thinking VPN for decreased network latency) but in all I'm happy with the progress.

Congrats...

I wonder if I can catch that cat that keeps coming in my yard every morning. I have one of them live critter catchers that would fit a small dog.

I would let it go back in to the wild unharmed after I gave it a good talking to. What kind of bait do you use for a cat??? I am thinking milk in a bowl.

My cat wouldn't go in for less then a live mouse, live birdie of nice piece of mackerel. She would prefer these three in one cage.

If you cannot catch it, scare it off

Russian is very similar to Croatian, so it's not that hard to pick up. I can understand quite a bit as it is, with not prior training.

We tried several times to catch a wild cat (to take him to the vet, not to get rid of him!) but never succeeded. My cat would fall for anything edible ... On second thougt, my cat would go in the cage no matter what you put in there (he's not the smartest ). Maybe you should just experiment a bit. A bowl of milk seems like a good place to start

After a couple of times you step into cat's poo in your own garden... Supposedly a place to relax and not having to look where you put your feet every step. Bring the wonderful bouquet on the soles of your shoes. Then have to spend an hour of your valuable time on cleaning shoes, floor, hands, ventilate the rooms...you might reconsider the Poor part of it

My cat will only go in for ice cream - she's a real ice-cream-aholic and she only likes expensive stuff unfortunately. We have to get her in a cat carrier for pet visits and only ice cream like cookies n cream will coax her.

My neighbour's cat likes ham.
