84. Thanks, Thom, that means a lot
And yes, I have freakishly steady hands, and have the Pistol shooting trophies to show for it too. A local bartender here used to love challenging me by filling the Martini glass all the way up the rim and see if I could take a sip without spilling anything. He never won.

In other news, I do hope your docs find something to help you out very soon!

That's as close as I could get to "egg" shaped lights.

I have to mix colored lights every so often to remember what colors need to be mixed together to make yellow. For so reason I can never remember that for more than a day or two.

As an aside--if Les Paul can play into his Nineties, and Satch, Vai, and Gilbert can play Ibanez guitars like they do, I have another 45 years to get there too.

95. I have that guitar I posted
the Ibanez RG570, I think anyway, with a cherry burst body. I also have an original NJ series BC Rich Warlock with EMG pickups. Both guitars are modded with shaved down tongue depressors underneath the necks in order to raise the frets up to the strings.

88. He has been the life of the party
so much so that he's received his own shout-outs on pod-casts. :P

He immediately loves anyone who comes in the house who is friendly. He plays with everyone.

89. Sounds like my dude
He prefers the women folk, and will immediately park himself on their laps, or if they're busty enough, on their chests. People are often amazed when I lean out the front door and snap my fingers three times and he comes running because it's time for bed. He'll run right past people walking home, but give them a quick cat chirp, but by the time they lean down to pet him he's already at our door.

Here he is after I bought a bicycle helmet:

90. He's a very beautiful boy.
I'm sure he gets a lot of attention. :)

It's amazing how much cats love boxes, but then you can never, ever get them into a cat carrier. :P

92. I don't want to spend the whole night talking about my cat
Edited on Wed Apr-08-09 11:06 PM by DS1
but I'll put the carrier down on the floor and he'll walk right in and get comfy, and I'll close the door and off we go. He'll complain for about 5 minutes in the car, but get this... I put on the second half of Tool's Lateralus CD and he'll go right to sleep. I really couldn't ask for a better cat, he trusts me implicitly, and in return, I'll always take care of him.

okay, more

I take him for unleashed walks, around blocks where I live. He'll follow, and sniff, but when I snap my fingers, he runs to where I am. Sometimes ahead of where I am to sniff out the dangers. He'll scout ahead when we're in the woods, too. When I'm sitting back against a tree, he'll come by, then go off and do his thing, then come back and make sure I'm okay, then go off and do his thing again. Sit by me, then go off when he hears something. Come back later, say hello, then run off to investigate something he heard.

96. Took This On Saturday:
It was at a Wisconsin Supreme Court campaign event for Shirley Abrahamson (GREAT, she WON!!!). Long story, but the people in this picture are Wisconsin Supreme Court Justice Ann Walsh Bradley, Mark Bradley, and Betty Bradley.
