My Gigi Photo Is Almost Famous

Found one of my Comic Con pictures of Gigi Edgley on a fan site. What’s most surprising is that the site’s author was good enough to give me credit for the photo. Not used to that kind of honesty on the Internet. (I’m looking at you, CNET!)

Bond Villains = Sexual Innuendos Galore

What James Bond villain/conquest from Goldfinger does this represent? Hint: it’s not Octopussy. That’s from…well…Octopussy.

Zoo Day With Kimi (Post #800!)

Spent a few fun-filled hours at the world famous San Diego Zoo today with my favorite niece, Kimi. Took bunches of photos of her with various animals (even petting a few) and had a really awful lunch. We both strongly felt like we were going to see somebody famous there and we amazingly ended up …

Imagine If They’d Made It About Allah

Part one of three. (Links at the end to continue.) What a great ironic twist to the story. (Really need to see this movie again.)

Not Me

This is my doppelganger in name only. Still weird. We do both wear glasses. Online translation of video description: “Peter Csanadi is responsible as head of marketing firm MATCH Hospitality for the World Cup VIP’s guide to the lodges. In South Africa the business was heavier than in 2006 in Germany. Csanadi explains why this …

Father’s Day Dinner

Our San Diego family got together and had a “surprise” Father’s Day dinner for my brother Ozzie. The surprise part didn’t turn out, but the dinner was excellent.

Not Enough Cat Pictures

Another neighbor asked us to go over to see her two new kittens, Faith and Hope, both thirteen weeks old. I can see even more cat-sitting in my future.

Cat-Sitting: Day Five

This is my final full day of cat-sitting so here’s only one photo showing seven of the eight cats and a few shots of various homey knickknacks.

Colin’s Passing Tweet

Hilarious Father’s Day tweet this morning by the always funny Colin Mochrie.

Cat Sitting: Day Four

Today I thought I would show some photos of the cats for a change. (Not much else going on there.) Two more nights, one more day.

The Ballad Of John And Jackie

Went over to Mary’s house for a delayed, catered post-wedding party for her mom and new husband after they recently returned from a honeymoon in eastern Europe. Average age of guests: 70ish. Food was great. Sylvia was in charge of the desserts and her perfectionism showed.

Cat Sitting: Day Three

The cats and my accommodations.

Two More Doctor Visits For Mami

My mom had two more doctor appointments today, both of which went very well with very good test results from her earlier CAT scan. Also stopped by her audiologist and I got some shots of old timey instruments in a display case.

Cat Sitting: Day Two

Not much to report other than a lot of cats eating and staring at birds out the window and my taking pictures of it all. Six of the eight cats were good sports about my intrusiveness. I’m pretty sure that they now accept me as one of them.

Saving Mount Everest

I never knew. Since 1953 when the first expedition scaled Mt. Everest there has been a steadily accumulating mini mountain of rubbish left behind by climbers and tourists. Saving Mount Everest is a project to remove the EIGHT TONS of trash the visitors didn’t take back with them and to teach the locals about solid …
