To that Nintendo game…”

3 Good Links Thursday

Posted in This, that and the other at 0:05

One Good Link: After trying out a bunch of computer card games, Pat decided Good Solitaire was the best.

One Video Link (with 3 Good Facts): Lasse Gjertsen is a Norwegian, he isn’t a musician, but he clearly knows his way around video editing equipment. (link via Need Coffee. )

One Other Link: When they’re hungry, hawks don’t ask where a bird comes from before they strike…

Hoping your meals today are delicious and your company pleasant…

Good things: Diana

Posted in The Good things in life at 0:05

Diana runs across the back yard.

Tongue out, arms flailing, Diana sprints around the back yard with the energy and the unrestrained joy of a 2 1/2-year-old. It makes us happy to watch her (and a little tired, too)…

What is a Good Cat?

Posted in Cats, What is a Good Cat? at 0:05

Nicky washes, with help from Lizzie.

“Cleanliness in the cat world is usually a virtue put above godliness. Puss spends more time washing than débutantes do changing their clothes…”
Carl Van Vechten, “The Tiger in the House.”

“All you have to remember is Rule 1: When in doubt - wash!”
Paul Gallico, “Jennie”

Above, you see Nicky and Lizzie demonstrating Good Cat hygiene, with El Gatito Perfecto getting motherly help from his older housemate. Pat and I are content to let the Good Cats keep themselves clean, but if we ever were to try to bathe them, we know of 2 ways to do it: The wrong (but funny) way and the better way.

Video from December 2000, taken at the home of Pat’s brother Ed and his wife Connie, who were fostering these 3 kittens and their mother. First Nicky yawns, and it spreads to the other two.
