      But I see you have neither a profile nor an e-mail address on your "page."

      Profiles in courage? I think not.

      Also, as for "mojo," read/respond to this, if you have the intestinal fortitude":

  Gingrich says war on terror 'phony' Former speaker says energy independence is key

  By BOB DEANS The Atlanta Journal-Constitution Published on: 08/03/07

  Washington — Former House Speaker Newt Gingrich said Thursday the Bush administration is waging a "phony war" on terrorism, warning that the country is losing ground against the kind of Islamic radicals who attacked the country on Sept. 11, 2001.

  A more effective approach, said Gingrich, would begin with a national energy strategy aimed at weaning the country from its reliance on imported oil and some of the regimes that petro-dollars support. • More Nation/World news

  "None of you should believe we are winning this war. There is no evidence that we are winning this war," the ex-Georgian told a group of about 300 students attending a conference for collegiate conservatives.

    Gingrich is right.

•  Orange eyes

     That is the way my eyes look and feel after reading the blogs late into night or the early hours of morning.  A clip over at Crooks and Liars( sorry I have a thing about linking, too old I guess)  where Dennis Miller the ex-comedian defends O'Reilly.  The transformation into a wingnut is so sad, in how people will prostitute themselves to stay in front of the camera. The real story is how Dennis Miller, will be offered a new position at the Wall Street Journal as Editor in Chief.  O'Reilly is still licking his wounds, after having his lights punched out by Senator Dodd. O'falafel's humiliation was showing, so he needed a second opinion from Miller, to boost his shrinking ego.

  •  wow... and you don't seem at all crazy ;) n/t

    by Trix on Sun Aug 05, 2007 at 12:18:45 AM PDT

    •  Well I do have two night shirts that say

      "Crazy Cat Lady" on them.

      They are all an absolute joy to have. We got hit hard by a feral cat in our backyard that my husband rescued from work a couple of years ago. For several years we had just three cats, and then he rescued the ferals and moved them into the backyard. Two years ago, the queen (Molly) gave birth to seven kittens. I cried when I found homes for four of them and had to give them up, but ended up keeping three of them (Bandit and Sonny are from that group). So we were up to six.

      Last year she had one (we call her Twist), but we didn't find Twist until she was too old to catch and bring into the house. A couple of months later we found another kitten out there in time to bring her in. We call her Lucy. That brought us up to seven.

      Then this year. Oh my! In March we found four more out there. (Yes, I've been hounding my husband to catch  Molly so we can have her spade. Not an easy task). And then it turns out Twist also had a litter. We finally found her one surviving kitten, and brought her in. That's JoJo in the window. So now we're up an even dozen. Twelve cats. We caught Twist, who is a bit more tame the other feral cats, and took her to our vet and had her spade. So she will not be having any more. But I kept on my husband. I refused to give up the four new ones because I had fallen in love with them, bottle feeding them for months.

      Finally, my husband caught Molly, sustaining quite a few scratches in the process. But he did catch her and take her over to the vet to be spade. That evening, when he went to feed the other feral cats in our backyard, he came in and handed me a little black kitten.  When we went outside and looked further, there were three more. That brings us up to sixteen.

      I know it sounds crazy to have sixteen cats in the house, but we are fortunate to have a rather large house for just two people. Two years ago we pulled up all the carpets and replaced it with tile, which is much cooler in this Florida weather, and much easier to keep clean with so many cats.

      We don't have any children, and we absolutely love each and every one of them. I work at home on the computer maintaining my own website, and my husband works two days a week (Saturdays and Sundays). They make me laugh all day long. Every once in a while my husband says we should try to find homes for some of them, and then he admits he can't. When he gets up in the morning (before me because I'm a night owl), he just loves the way they are waiting for him and follow him down the hall to the kitchen.

      We have a nightly ritual where they share two cans o f canned cat food. Our dining room is the cat's room. He opens the cans onto two separate plates, and walks around calling to make sure every body is present and accounted for before he puts the plates down. It is a hoot! The cats following him around will he rounds up the missing. Then he puts one plate on the table for the older cats, and another one on the floor for the babies. What a sight (before the last four kittens started participating ... now it's even more of a riot):

      

      They are happy, they love each other ... so what if I'm a crazy cat lady. I love my pooties and they love me. That's all that matters.

        I only have 6. I've been successful catching the ferals with a bass or crab net.Have a large plastic tub nearby where you can 'dump' the hissing,spitting,kicking ball of fur. I let the vet take care of the rest.
        Most of my outdoor cats are not feral they're just skittish,but I love them all.

      •  Beautiful cat lady

        I just love you and your husband what beautiful compassionate people.  I have six cats - 3 grown and 3 kittens that I rescued this spring and my husband is after me all the time to find homes for the 3 kittens but they are adorable and still I am looking for the perfect family for one or two of the kittens but still  if you are not absolutely sure of the person you don t want to give them up to a miserable life.  But all the best to you we need more people like you and your husband with a compassionate disposition (there are not many husbands like that) to help these beautiful animals.
