Friday Ark #130
We'll post links to sites that have Friday (plus or minus a few days) photos of their chosen animals (photoshops at our discretion and humans only in supporting roles). Watch the Exception category for rocks, beer, coffee cups, and....?
Do link to the Ark every week!
You can find out how to board the Friday Ark at the Arkive page.
NB: Reader Rosemary suggested checking out Playful Pancakes: Cat Toys. Cassidy, a 2nd grader, makes these cat toys and uses the proceeds to buy goats for Sudan.

Note for Haloscan Users:Over the past month or so Haloscan started (the end of July) handling of trackbacks has improved though it is still pretty broken for carnival type posts. Now, instead of rejecting every attempt to ping it accepts single pings for a while and then will start rejecting them. I will keep trying to track back to Haloscan boarders but can make no guarantees for any particular week.
Note for Typepad Users:
Typepad continues to behave similar to Haloscan for trackbacks. I been able to get trackbacks to most, if not all, Typepad based boarders. I have to do it one at a time and wait a while in between pings but Typepad does not go into semi-permanent rejection mode like Haloscan.
Posted by Steve on March 16, 2007Oopss... forgot to board the Ark again ! What with our move and everything, my head is spinning. Arrgghh !!
