    Ed Lauter Dead at 74

    I'll always remember him from the original The Longest Yard?, though he's been in so many things. RIP.

    Who is this?

    Good one!! :D I've been following along since the beginning, but you guys are just too good. I'm in awe. I have gotten exactly one (but as I was catching up, the name was already given). I've had to go back to the picture after knowing who it was on lots of these, but it's still fun.

    Dan rather on hdnet

    How about the Lehman Bros. CEO who in under 10 years took out over $500,000,000 in pay, options, parachute, etc.? Does the Board of Directors wonder if having back some of his excessive pay might have made a difference in LB's survival?? Who needs that kind of money to survive and flourish...

    The day the earth stood still

    On topic again - I thoroughly enjoy the 1951 version of The Day the Earth Stood Still. It's one of my favorite movies and always will be. However, I will give the new version a chance by eventually seeing it. As much as I love the first one though, the new version will have an uphill road...

    The day the earth stood still

    Off topic, but I've told others and now you--just skip the first 50-60 pages. I don't know if it's the preface, forward, introduction, or what, but it has nothing to do with the actual story. Most of the names aren't even mentioned again, and it doesn't matter if they are or not. It's pretty...

    When your kids smarter than the teacher

    Teaching "tact" is good. Questioning is good. Do something nice just for him to ease the school punishment. Is this another example of zero tolerance in the schools? What a ridiculous concept!

    Question for cat owners...

    I mourn your loss with you. As I said before, I had a kitten with feline leukemia too, and it's so sad that they just don't have a chance. I was so hoping for a better result for you. You did what you could for her and made her days better through caring for her. I'll hug my two cats a...

    Question for cat owners...

    He sounds like a very compassionate veterinarian. I hope he can bring your little girl back to health very quickly! Seems she had reason to cry all the time, poor little thing. Any new word on how she's doing??

    how long before let baby cat explore outside

    I sure hope she's all right. I have my fingers crossed that it's nothing or is something easy to treat.

    how long before let baby cat explore outside

    I guess it makes sense that they are advocating getting cats "fixed" earlier to prevent overpopulation. I just kept mine inside at least until then, but it's easy for them to get outside earlier and the "damage" is done. Thanks for the explanations. fhsucade07, in Wisconsin, I've seen coyotes...

    how long before let baby cat explore outside

    I wonder if getting cats neutered early is easier for owners to remember to get it done? It seems awfully young. I had one vet tell me that he liked to wait until the males were fully grown at 10 months old. I don't blame you for not joining another cat club. Who needs to hear their dining...

    how long before let baby cat explore outside

    I've never heard of neutering a cat that young--I'm surprised. Females are usually able to be neutered before the males, but my vets have always recommended around 6-8 months, some vets even longer. Don't forget owls as predators. They love kittens!:eek: My cats stay indoors. I lost one in...

    Question for cat owners...

    Female cats are usually the more aggressive, and the male cats more cuddly. So while you've had male cats before, this one will act a bit differently. As for the "making bread/kneading," most cats will do that at times. Mine (a brother and sister) prefer those fake sheepskin "nests." They'll...

    Electric lawn mowers / snow blowers...opinions?

    I bought the Toro 1800 Power Curve used off of ebay 3.5 years ago. We've had plenty of snow here since then, and my snow thrower has handled all the big snowfalls (it doesn't do so well with the frozen rain mixed in with the snow, obviously, as it's plastic). It turns out that mine is 10-11...

    Bats dying in in droves in the northeast

    I'd heard of this before, so for you to find three stories now, it must be getting much worse. Bats eat lots of my least favorite critters--mosquitoes. I hope they figure out what's killing the bats and are able to stop it.

    Vespa for saving on fuel cost?

    See if your DMV has info on-line. In WI you can have a moped or a scooter/motorcycle. Mopeds can only carry one person and are supposed to have a top speed of 30 mph. Insurance for a moped for 1 year is about $80. Obviously, that is different from state to state, so that's why I suggest...

    who wants puro's avatar back???

    Since you don't know my job, just know that I do have the authority to use my "off" time to use the web and my preference is to not view avatars like the subject one. Just my preference, which was solicited by the poll.

    How is my breaktime and lunchtime "the company DIME?" Boy, you must really work for slavedrivers! :) Sorry, that's MY time, and I can use it to surf if I want--the internet connection is on and paid for whether I use it or not. What's non-offensive to you obviously was offensive or insulting to...
