Thanks very much, Kathy!

*HUGS*

And thanks very much for tonight's "Are You A Good Driver" thread. I don't need to take the test, thanks - an unbroken string of accidents stretching from early 1966 down to the present speak louder than anything I could possibly say to the contrary!

New Yorkers and Mass drivers are the worst.

They suck in ways that have never sucked before.

Congratulations, you got 10/10 correct.

You're a good driver - at least, when you want to be.

We are also good at fooling tests! I just took took the test here in MA and my computer tells me I am a good driver — something which is patently false.

Can feel them creeping up on each other!

Here's a photo of one of our Clementine's kittens born Sunday, August 26, 2012. Took the photo yesterday afternoon:
