Well, I am glad you like the site, they are great friends of mine, and I try to help them whenever possible. Now I am trying to *make* my own scythian bow.....needless to say it rough going. But I'll just see what I can get the old bowyer in the village to make.

The link doesnt work? Strange...*checks it* it works fine for me, what browser you using TD?

I find myself intrigued by your subvocal oscillations,
a singular development of cat communications
that obviates your basic hedonistic predilection
for a rhythmic stroking of your fur, to demonstrate affection.

A tail is quite essential for your acrobatic talents;
you would not be so agile if you lacked its counterbalance.
And when not being utilized to aide in locomotion,
it often serves to illustrate the state of your emotion.

O Spot, the complex levels of behaviour you display
connote a fairly well-developed cognitive array.
And though you are not sentient, Spot, and do not comprehend,
I nonetheless consider you a true and valued friend.

OH thanks, Rian, I hadn't gotten the chocolate mix to the right consistency yet anyway. I think I'll wait for Lotesse; she's really good at that stuff.

....warms hands around cup......hmmmmmm

Mwahahahahaa!

And tea on the side.

In a go-cup.

Quote of the day:

"It's like being pecked to death... by ducks."

-Latin professor, bemoaning our unfocused attempts at translating in class this morning.

'bye, Spock - say hi to your Goldberry

Hey Maggie - can you give the Latin thing in my siggy to your professor and see how he translates it? I've heard several minor variations, and I'd be interested to see what he comes up with. It's "Ego numquam pronunciare mendacium, sed ego sum homo indomitus!" Or maybe you can translate it, too!

The closest translation I came up with is:

"I never proclaim a lie, but I am an indominable man!"

That it is! My friend Data. (WARNING: May Ruing Star Trek: Nemesis and perhaps a few Next Generation episodes):
Sad, that he had to die. He was the best. Why couldn't someone useless be killed off, like Ensign Ro, or one of those ignorant admirals, like the one who wanted to take Data's daughter away and whom I suspect had something to do with her malfunction after she experienced emotion, or one of the Q, though not necessarily Q himself. In fact, why wasn't Q there to save Data! Or at least his wife Q, or his son q. Or someone! WHY!!!!! *sob*. Where was Q when he would have actually been useful? WHY!?

I don't seem to remember seeing his cat in quite a few episodes. Wonder where Spot disappeared to, if he did at all. And whatever hapened to Wes Crusher?
