Oh, and we must have a cat today. Get your fat moggie off the couch and make it feel the burn. This cat workout video is ultimately an ad, but a funny one, and not obstrusive. h/t: Michelle
Unless Henri stops flogging his book (as he does in this new video) as well as Friskies cat food, I will post on him no more. This video, in which Henri pretends existential angst while, of course, mentioning his book at the same time decrying the profiteering of his owner, is an exercise in hypocrisy. […]
Just to start the day off with a “gee” and a smile. First, a photo of some famous bits of Earth taken from the International Space Station by Commander Chris Hadfield, who’s given us many nice pictures. Before you click on the link, let’s see how good you are: guess where this is: And a […]
