Three things I am really quite happy about

Latest post of the previous page:

I did my first motorcycle ride in rush hour traffic yesterday evening. I rode 4 major roads and survived!
I rode back over those 4 main roads at night to get home
I accomplished what I set out to do.

woo hoo!!!!! I remember when I was learning to ride the motorbike, I'd sneak my dad's bike out in the night and our apartment was right by the highway at the edge of the city in Pune. The first time I took it out, I froze when I saw a huge monster truck coming my way...lol!

On the highway? Are you crazy? How did your dad not hear you? (As a teenager, I used to steal my dad's Mustang at least until I nearly killed myself by skidding into the opposite lane of traffic...talk about stoooopid )

Kittens are mega-cute! Has your neighbor thought about getting the 'mom' fixed?

sorry,

Our flat was on the third floor, and on top of that our apartment was facing the highway so the noise of the trucks and other vehicles would've made it difficult. But he could've seen me take the bike out coz my parents' bedroom window was facing the highway...lol!

See in India cats are not the kind of pets like dogs are...you know like you have different breeds of dogs and all. Cats are basically stray here, and each cat has its territory which would be like a couple of streets typically. The cat kinda belongs to all the ppl on the street, rather the cat chooses which families will be its human friends...lol! The family she is most attached to, she normally litters in their house. So this cat, when she was a kitten, she and her brother were with me...then when they became like 10-12 yr old kids kinds, the boy started to venture out. The girl was very timid then so she would be very scared. Since I'd be at the office the whole day I asked my neighbors' kids to take care of them during the day...then one day the boy was attacked by a dog and he died Since then the girl has been with them and now she is pregnant! Damn she is not even out of her teens man...Last October they were born....ggggrrrrrrrrrr...Teen pregnancies are not just human problems after all!

Neutering cats is not required as such...the fact that there are too many stray dogs in Bangalore basically keeps the cat population down Normally the cat's chosen "owner" will typically leave a small window open at night so she can come in and go out...cats can't be inside the house at night...lol! They have to hunt.

Here, most apt. buildings are 18 stories high and my parent's window faced the complete opposite direction so I was safe that way. But I am almost sure he must have known or suspected as he started keeping a mileage record...

Sorry about the boy cat. Hugs! Poor girl cat. It just goes to show you what happens when babies raise babies.

Veterenarians over here encourage people to keep their cats indoors so they don't catch nasty stuff like Feline Leukemia but hardly anyone listens. My cats stay indoors though. No hunting for them! I do make sure to play with them often though.

Oh yeah, 3 things:
Curtis Jr chose a helmet for himself as he wants to ride with me
Jr is going to brush Pepper's (dog) teeth
Planning a motorcycle ride overnight possibly

[Lifelinking]

Cool.

[CurtisB]

I feel that I'm making headway on personal goals
I feel I'm growing as a person (and not just wider)
I have 3 weeks left in my co-op / I start my college program again after a nine-month hiatus for co-ops!

[Nirvanam]

1. One kitten survived
2. India beat SL and retain the number 1 rank (cricket)

1) I have fitted Dora's new 'Sureflap' and it works just like they said it would. The first time she went out it set itself and remembered her microchip number and when she wanted to come back it just opened for her. She will never have to wear a collar again.

2) Ninny had just bought me a huge bag of real treacle toffees.

3) I am eating a treacle toffee.

I am not a number! I'm a free cat!

I am looking forward this evening to:

A bottle of Bordeaux vino

A peperoni pizza

Sharing the above two with my friend, Carole.

[jamesjones950]

good one, Dave, the simplest pleasures are the best, viz:

A king prawn curry from the best local takeaway
A bottle of Long Slim Chile red
Being able to escape "Casualty" by going online on Think Humanism.

[Gottard]

1) The government is about to fall
2) Their quarrelling is a rare opportunity for us citizens to get some glimmers of truth
3) Some of their rogueries are falling under the judicial axe

Update:
The wine was great, the pizza tasty, the company good.

The first video (borrowed from the library) was duff; the second video, (borrowed from a friend) had subtitles so small Carole could not read them.

The third video (bought from Tescos because I know Carole likes him) was a Shaun the Sheep one. Haven't laughed so much for a long time!

So glad you were prepared to work the percentages with the videos. Pizza and red wine can generally be relied upon; videos, less so. I call that good planning.
