Now how I can manage to kill a mouse by opening a can of soda 10 feet away is still a mystery to me....

Looking back through old photos of myself, Spanky and Utsanomiko, I'm struck anew by how closely the three of us resemble each other. (I'm the sheep that got sheared...)

Okay, time to resurrect this thread! Many thanks to Rob Wilson for hosting this (not very good) picture of me:

There's me sitting on the sofa with the first of our two cats, Topi, who will turn two years old in May. For those who are interested, he's a brown bicolor ragdoll, and absolutely adorable.

(Sorry, couldn't resist.)

We have a ragdoll cat as well. They can be hilarious at times; our cat has developed this habit of pawing the sliding glass door outside our kitchen whenever we prepare food.

Yes, they can be hilarious, our cats regularly have us in stitches with the antics they throw... :lol: :lol:

Topi typically starts rolling on the floor and purring when he knows he's getting food (or hoping to get delicacies). Of course, once he gets the goods, the audience ends quite abruptly. He also has the less charming habit of banging on loose cupboard doors in the middle of the night if he wants attention, and then runs meaowing to the living room, rolls on his back and purrs that he finally got attention (if you followed him, that is).

Both of our cats are more of my gf's babies than mine (she owns them, too), they like her a whole lot more. They also don't obey her even when she tells them not to do something they know is forbidden, but if I so much as glance in their direction, they immediately cease.

Have you had her spayed? It really helps cut down on how bonkers they go, both of our cats were a real handful of trouble before they were neutered. Topi was especially bad, he would throw a fit over absolutely anything and everything.

No, why? I don't look that bad, do I? :cry: :cry: :cry:

Seriously, I almost never manage to look good in any pictures. In this one, my hair looks like a bird's nest and my glasses have slipped down my nose, so it makes for some of that.

Einy, you're welcome.

Darlin', your hair is adorable (looks like you just rolled out of bed, mmm :wink: ), as are your glasses--if you were smiling for real instead of giving one of those "oh-hey-look-it's-a-goddamn-camera-I-hate-goddamn-cameras-don't-take-my-picture-just-go-the-fuck-away-you-asshat" smiles, you'd take GORGEOUS pictures, since you're a gorgeous guy, after all.

That's what I think, anyway. :D

I had that problem for years. Until I just started getting crewcuts.
