    Like...Team Obscure Aliment of the Day, in which one day the captain is the one with MS, then it rotates to the one with blood clots, then the one with chrones', etc?

    But, no, we have to stick with Team Danger, because CWR is our captain. She's not sick, she just rides with bears. OK, maybe sick in the head.

    i had lots of lung problems down in phoenix. just the nice clean air up here my asthma doesn't bother me or my allergies.

    and the bear poop isn't frozen yet. just all mushey. even better

    (many in this town would agree with sick in the head. considering i'm outside running or biking in some gnarly weather. well that and i moved from a HUGE city to little ol' cold bay)

    Can the logo be a toad in a martini glass...?

    We need to factor in alcohol somehow.

    I stopped in at a new store on the way home because a few days ago I'd gone in there looking for something they didn't have, but I, without my purse, spotted a bottle of Snoqualmie Naked Riesling. Organic. I've been fantasizing about it ever since. Unfortunately, I also spotted a Zinfandel Ice Wine and an Orange Muscat, both half bottles, both from Renwood. Then I had to LEAVE THE STORE!!! That was 2/3 of that Zero X I want to try...And unfortunately, I'll probably just hoard the Zin, since it is far too precious to drink...

    Feral Kitties

    I must confess I have a brood of feral cats living in my backyard. It started with me innocently feeding one, who decided the living was good here and had three babies a year ago June. One of which we didn't catch in time. She managed to have two babies this past April, for a total of 6 girl kitties, 5 that have been neutered.

    We bought a trap and have been neutering like crazy since January. Well, we're not doing the neutering... a local vet is...

    We had a bunch of boy kitties move in. If they got caught in the trap, they got done. Only one of them has continued to hang around. He won't let me near him. I fear the others are no longer with us...

    The six females will all let me touch them to various degrees. I still need to catch the current mama. Her babies have been neutered this week, but she refuses to go in the darn trap. Fortunately, she's one I can pick up if I'm quick. I may just have to pick her up and stuff her in the trap.

    v - i'm suprised those cats still come around you, the word must've gotten out about getting snipped.

    or.....

    maybe it has and they like the drugs.

    oooh! OoOh! Swedish chef! I just made PP sit through the Muppet Movie 2 nights ago. I hadn't see it in what, 20 years?? There were so many scenes filed in Marin COunty and many with Mt. Tam in the background - that was pretty wild.

    MP - I couldn't figure out why I wanted to pick the swedish chef translation. Now I know why!

    Mr. Fish has a suggestion for our team name..."too old and damaged (or deranged)". Grrrrrrrr. I'll deal with him later.
