We were told back in 2020 that the Covid virus was lethal, and that seniors everywhere were succumbing to the respiratory infection. We heard alarming stories of nursing homes virtually emptying out, as their residents died in their numbers. We were forced to wear masks whenever out of our homes, and sometimes even in our …
Since the Washington State Legislature instituted an onerous "carbon tax" on all "polluters", the price of gasoline has skyrocketed. Washington now has the second-highest gas prices in the nation, and it is set to go higher forever. There is no upper limit. Here is a local station, a week ago. And here it is today. …

This is the view from the Jericho Tennis Club where Hubby is playing in a squash tournament this weekend. Smoky view, Vancouver BC And this is the view near Bellingham, Washington. Wildfires cause this. Ugh.

So, let's have some serious Feline Fun. First off, some cute cat cartoons. It's really easy to make all sorts of jokes about cat behavior, and what they would say if they could talk.
