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.

    Togetherness, Bliss

    Isn’t that sweet, Meowza and Keefe together like that? One would never guess they are little monsters when they’re awake.

    Friday cat food: Let sleeping frogs lie

    Every once in a while, we will hear a cat downstairs simply scratching away at the kitchen window glass. Sometimes, it’s not always obvious what they’re scratching about.
    See that? Let’s look closer.
    It’s a green tree frog. …

    Friday Calf Blogging

    Freckles the calf, on World Farm Animal Day, or thereabouts. I’m not sure if World Farm Animal Day was October 1, October 2, or October 4, but anyway I missed it. Darn. The cows and I were going to celebrate.

    Finally Friday

    I’m still ignoring the news although I did watch it while petting them. And while taking pictures of them. After taking her turn on the lap, Jezi got up and went behind the curtain. This is the shot I got where you can actually see her.

    Feline Friday: Alone time

    Miss Lyra sits at the foot of the bed, carefully bathing her left front paw. Sergei leaps silently onto the bed, landing almost atop her, disrupting her toilette. How rude! And he has the nerve to bump up against her, demanding to be groomed. Time to …

    Caturday

    Seeing as I spent the better part of the day with them and cleaning up cat pee in the kitchen again, I thought to share another pic. Not of Izzy for obvious reasons. Bad kittycat.
