I was approached by an 'intervention' committee tonight who told me...
So I sat down and really did some serious...
about a subject. I decided to ask the neighbors, but I guess I've bugged them enough, because I found this....
on their door. So, I asked a pal, who gave me his input...
Another pal said he had a friend who might be able to help, so off he went to...
The guy came to me with what he considered a wonderful....
which I .....
about before figuring, well, they think......
anyway, so why not. I informed my 'Blog Team Leader' and I could tell he was impressed.
He immediately gathered his crew and sent them to search through my...
to collect some of my old, dusty, musty....
which they hustled right in with their usual cheerfull attitude.
They also gave me this 'special clock' and said I should consult it next time I had no ideas and the clock would help me get a good one.
Sensing their great affection for my fair treatment, I paid them in the customary manner.
Then, with my trusty office intern being eager to leave his chores and help
we retreated to the comfort and tranquility of my
where I proceeded to amaze the youngster with my typing technique.
After the Spellcheck Kitty was finished and told me go ahead to bed
I posted this buncha stuff just for you folks:

-Lake Baikal in Siberia is the only lake in the world that is deep enough to have deep-sea fish.
-A space vehicle must move at a rate of at least 7 miles per second to escape Earth's gravitational pull. This is equivalent to going from New York to Philadelphia in about 20 seconds.

-Without any greenhouse effect, Earth would be cold and lifeless with an average temperature of 0.4 degrees Fahrenheit.
-A cat's arching back is part of a complex body language system, usually associated with feeling threatened. The arch is able to get so high because the cat's spine contains nearly 60 vertebrae which fit loosely together. Humans have only 34 vertebrae.
-The U.S. Mint was authorized to produce one-cent copper coins on April 2, 1792. Originally, there were four designs struck: the "chain" cent, the "wreathed" cent, the "flowing hair" cent, and the "liberty" cent.
-You blink every 2-10 seconds. As you focus on each word in this sentence, your eyes swing back and forth 100 times a second, and every second, the retina performs 10 billion computer-like calculations.
-Time slows down near a black hole; inside, it stops completely.
-If all the blood vessels in a single human body were stretched end to end, they would form a string capable of going around the world.

-Star Trek's Mr. Spock had green skin because of traces of copper and nickel in his blood.
-If every OREO cookie ever made were stacked on top of each other (over 362 billion), the pile would reach the moon and back more than five times. If placed side-by-side they would encircle the earth 381 times at the equator!

Those cat photo's are awsome but the trivia was neat also. Thanks for posting them.
There are five known species of 'loons' in the world.
Is that counting the ones in D.C.?
I didn't realize that loons lived that long!
We used to have a Common Loon that would fly by and holler in our bedroom window, EVERY morning, between 5-5:30 a.m. This went on for around 15 years. I always wondered if this was the same loon every year...now I know.
