23. Hi smokey nj !!!!!

:hi: :hug:

We did thanx !!! How about the NJ gang? Did you guys have fun?

The fuzzies enjoyed my company Tuesday, and I gave June Bug a surprise sneak attack nail clipping. She gave me a projectile vomit surprise near her bed. :rofl:

All in all, we ate, drank and were quite merry.

Hope you all had a very merry Xmas.

:hug:s to all the fritters.

33. Mr. smokey and I had a great time at my sister's house on Christmas Eve.
Christmas Day at his mom's wasn't that much fun for me, I can't stand his brother and sister-in-law (although Mr. smokey's kitty sisters are quite lovely). One year, I will get the Christmas blizzard and I won't have to go. The brother and wife gave me a sweater - the same one the wife was wearing!!! Is that tacky or what?

We picked up my friend, Megan, on our way home from the in-laws so the rest of the night was a blast. We watched the countdown marathon on VH-1 and laughed our asses off. Big post-Xmas hugs to you and the fuzz crew!!

Hi Ms. Nov - funny you mentioned the sneak nail clipping
Pod's claws had gotten so long and pointy she was always getting them caught in the bedding. (I had to go downstairs to find one of our myriad trimmers and was just too damn lazy.)

Anyway, I have to soldier up before attempting a trim, because old Pod knows exactly where to bite for maximum damage. Last year I ended up at the urgent care clinic with an infected hand. The doc was great, though. He tore up the animal bite report when I told him poor old Pod was blind, three-legged, and 15 years old.

So last night I thought "what the hell", grabbed Pod in a half-nelson and went to work. But somehow the little demon managed to get one claw in the back of the slidey-part of the mechanism of the trimmer, and what a scene that was. Flailing paw with trimmer attached. Biting jaws. Yeesh!

I'm gonna give her an emery board.

73. Fun, ain't it?

:hi:

I can't do the dastardly deed alone, so I've been taking the little angels to the parlor. For $8 I don't even have to watch. They go in the back and 2 people clip all their nails in about 3 minutes.

When my friend comes over, I always bribe her into helping me since she does all of her cats herself. She started when they were kittens, brave person. But I can't ever get JuneBug because she's still semi-feral. but once in a while I can sneak up behind her while she's sleeping on the condo, with one eye open to see what I;m doing. If I'm quick enuff, like the other day, I get her under the front armpits. From there it's pretty easy, I hold and my friend does the clipping. We got Sesame too, but she's so easy. Poor JuneBug, it's been years since hers were done.

It may be caused by repetitive movements over a long period,
or by fluid retention, and is characterized by sensations of tingling, numbness
after working for their bosses.

61. I believe that is Corporate tunnel syndrome vs carpal tunnel Syndrome
Maybe, they are really the same

I believe we are really on to something with this new political definition
that may describe to some what is going on in terms they can understand.
The populace really don't understand why they are hurting.

We're cool. Mr. c's playing online poker downstairs. The kitties are burping and barfing around the house.

I know I can ask you anything...what's the * Christmas card Mike was chuckling over? What did I miss? Too much turkey/tryptophan.

45. Hi, Truthseekers!
Edited on Wed Dec-26-07 09:44 PM by Maat
The family and the furries survived Winter Solstice and Christmas Day (and the full moon).

Why does my six-year-old cat (Dot) think Dexter is her baby? Maybe because one day I told her that Dexter was THE baby. She still cleans his head, and watches him like a hawk, and they sleep next to each other.

P.S. My in-laws now have a perfect record (I haven't liked one present they've gotten me in 30+ years - don't tell them).

Hope everyone is doing well!

59. HI, Catnapper!
Luckily, mine live across the country (we're in California; they're in Oklahoma). We exchange gifts by mail, however; and, we call each other.

We just can't talk about any significant; our life philosophies and politics are just too far apart. They became extremely conservative Southern Baptists (of the fundamentalist variety) about five years ago when they followed my sister-in-law and her family to Oklahoma.

I understand of what you speak.

75. It's sickening.

I was really shocked at hearing it during Jeff Farias. For some reason, AAR's doing it doesn't surprise me much. :grr:

91. Does anyone have problems with Democrats supporting Cluster Bombs?


The Consequences
Wherever they been used - Laos, Vietnam, Cambodia, Sudan, Lebanon, Iraq, Kuwait, Yugoslavia, Kosovo, Ethiopia, Chechnya, and Afghanistan, unexploded cluster bombs have created problems for civilians:
During the Gulf War over 30 million cluster bomblets were dropped on Kuwait and Iraq and, in the following months, unexploded bombs killed 1,600 civilians and injured another 2,500.

According to a recent study by the Red Cross, children in Kosovo are five times more likely to be killed or injured by a NATO-dropped unexploded cluster bomb than by a Serbian landmine.

Today, in Afghanistan, reports indicate that the U.S. use of cluster bombs is causing the same kinds of tragic consequences for civilians there as they did in other countries. Because cluster bombs are area weapons with a wide dispersal pattern, they kill living things indiscriminately, including civilians. And their high-failure rate means that the killing of innocent people will continue long after the bombs stop dropping.
Cluster Bombs Today
Their current use in Afghanistan is helping to focus the world's attention on cluster bombs. Many feel that their impact on civilians is unacceptable and a breach of international humanitarian law. More than 50 international organizations, including the International Committee of the Red Cross, the Mennonite Central Committee, Human Rights Watch, Amnesty International and the International Committee to Ban Landmines have called for a moratorium on cluster bomb use. And, in spite of the fact that cluster bombs are one of the favorite and most deadly weapons in the U.S. and NATO arsenals, on December 13, 2001 the European Parliament passed a resolution calling for an immediate global moratorium on their use to be followed by an outright ban.

There is a good film at this site too by what they see in Europe on TV.
