Life, the Universe, and my Cats
This page is about sanity maintenance.
As they say, "all work and no play....."
My cats!
- The Weed: The best cat in the world. Period.
- Giesha. My new kitty (as of about 2001...). Picked her up mostly to entertain the Weed.
- Vermin: The big guy. My old cat - he's no longer with us, but lives on in photos and on the web.
Let's see... What do I do in my spare time?
Well, no day is complete without starting off with the best medicine of all - humor. Many of the best have retired (Calvin & Hobbes, The Far Side, Bloom County), however, Dilbert and Doonesbury, thankfully, are still with us. A couple of up and comers to keep an eye on are Zits, The Norm, Frazz and Get Fuzzy. To check out all these cartoons (except Frazz) and many more, visit gocomics.com . You can set up a personal comics page there, which makes daily viewing of your favoriets simple.. There have also been a few in the past few years that were excellent: Swan Factory, Thatch, Citizen Dog, and Frumpy the Clown. Alas, all have stopped. If anyone sees any of these on the web, please let me know. Good news - I just found the Frumpy archives. Nothing new, but at least it's something.
I've also set up an academic cartoon of the day page (with the programming help of Tim Barnhart, a former graduate student at CWU). A new 'toon every day!
p.s. for no apparent reason, my favorite soda is Hires Root Beer. Which cannot be purchased in Ellensburg. Very sad.
