Hi guys!!
Effin Fabulous! Alli and Catwoman!
Hey gals, I've got a bunch of lobster tails looking to be devoured this weekend. Any angles on how I should prepare them? I was leaning toward adding them to an embellished fettucini type dish, but I'm looking for something more creative.
Where is everyone?
In Chicago, having some REAL pizza.
:P :D

I've seen a guy get pounced on film too. He barely survived.
Creepier still are the maneating tigers that pick off 30 or 40 villagers.
Hey ever'body! Is this where it's at today?

I like both cats and dogs, for a simple reason -- they're descended from the same animal!
It was a mostly-predatory mammal that looks a bit like a big dog-cat, and lived during the era not all that long after the dinosaurs were wiped out -- within a few million years, if memory serves.
The two branches have specialized in different things, but I think that together they form their own parts of the human symbiotic "family". Some people have neither, some people have only one or the other, but if you're a "family" kind of person, I suspect you'll want both.
I've never owned my own dog. We encountered this amazingly smart german shepherd-husky stray once, but ended up turning him in to animal control within a few days because of my mother's allergies. We never knew what became of him.
A few years later, a half-feral kitten showed up on the first day of my Junior year of high school, and never left us. We named her Missy, after the famous downhill mountain biker Missy Giove. This is because Missy is/was absolutely psycho when it comes to her feral side. She hunts like some kind of demon from the depths of hell....her prey are rarely in one piece for more than a full second or two after impact.
Unfortunately her feral side got the better of us after the family moved her around many times and transported her between the house in Maine and the house in New Hampshire....eventually she ran away into the woods at the house in New Hampshire. She was gone for almost two years...then she showed up again one day, just like she did as a kitten.
But, my father and sister pushed their luck and she ran off in NH again after becoming frustrated with being driven two hours in a car once again. She may still be out there....she's obviously proven that she has what it takes to survive brutal new england winters. But we haven't seen her now in almost 8 months.
Since Missy started me on a path to kinship with felines of all kinds, I've had six others; one died as a kitten, another is almost certainly dead, a third was taken from us by the negligence of the local Animal Refuge League despite having a tracking implant in her shoulder, and three are crowded around me right now.
I do hope to get a dog once we're settled into a house this year. First and foremost though, I want to make sure my cats have a decent place to live that will allow them to go outside, hunt, and just plain *live* as they want to, without undue danger. Once I have that under control, I'll consider new pets.
Truth is, there are moments where I am overwhelmed by my feelings of having failed in my responsibility to the cats we've lost, and that's not a good place from which to be making decisions about new lives to become responsible for. Not yet.

I'm a dog man personally. don't get me wrong, I've loved the cats I've owned, but I'm allergic to them and have to be careful about playing with them and then touching my face -- sure path to an allergy attack.
In the past I was always careful, and was recently going to adopt a kitty that took up residence at my house. it hung around fo several days, but there was a collar around its neck, so I assumed it was a neighborhood cat. I built it a shelter outside, hoping its owners would find her. But it kept hanging around, never really left and I decided that I would adopt it. So off to the store I went for a flea collar (she had em, let me tell you) and some kitty food. Of course when I returned home, she had left, so I had to give the kitty food away to friends who had cats
c'est la vie. she was such a cool black kitty with green eyes -- the perfect halloween cat. I named her maxine

I inherited most of my mother's allergies, but I have spent my whole life building up tolerances and resisting giving in to them. Ironically that may have contributed to me spending two years in chronic pelvic pain from lymph inflammation and all sorts of other fun stuff, but I'm glad that I've battled my allergy to cat dander. I love cats too much.
Ever been around a big cat, like a panther or a mountain lion or even a tiger? Even if you're outside the cage, the dander can be insane. I've seen PILES of it in the corner of a tiger cage where the big guy would lay down for a good scratching session with those huge-ass claws.
Watching a 500-lb death machine scratch its neck with its back foot like a dog or a housecat was priceless, but my eyes wouldn't stop watering for hours!
