I've got it!

I just have to figure out how to scan it in!

Your kitty is so cute! How does he (or she) tolerate a kerchief? My Siameasles have a fit if you put anything around their necks (you can't put any kind of collar on a show cat because it damages the fur on their throats . . . and by the time mine stopped showing it was too late to teach them to wear a collar . . . )

As a long-time thread-busting specialist (especially when it comes to my livestock) all I can say is, it may be impertinent but it sure helps to lighten the mood from time to time . . .

These 13th century types respect force above all else. Kick them hard enough and they will kiss your toe.

Ernie and Isis absolutely wear their bandanas proudly. Mr. Poopers feigns seizures with anything around his neck. They have worn out so many, I resorted to making them, rather than paying the outrageous prices the stores charge for material remnants with a stitch of Velcro. They also make cute gifts for the animal lovers.

If RagtimeCowgirl will indulge--Here is Isis in her Halloween scarf, watching Abner's kitty (D.C.), watching the Viking Kitties...

How precious.

Magnificat prefers to sit on top of the monitor, where it's warm, and look superior:

(haven't you scarred the kitty for life by naming him "Mr. Poopers"? or did he come with the name? a friend of mine once bought a horse named Naked and Freezing . . . )

I inherited Mr. P from my mother. He arrived with a different name---and he earned his new name. Worry not, he gets his shots of insulin twice every day...sigh...and he's the old man on the block around here.

Quite a few have said the same thing right here on FR.

Indeed......and mocked those of us who disagreed.

You expecting any apologies, Coop? ;o)

The 70 percent...is nice...but these guys aren't idiots...they will learn and adapt. By Xmas, our 70 percent margin will have closer to 10 percent. The question is...can we continue to adapt to their new strategies?

I was thinking the same thing.Hotel attacked will be prominent..not the reduction in attacks.

Let's hope we pursue this thing to the end.

And what would that be?

That would never happen! Because we are all posting on a conservative forum and all espouse exclusively conservative (Republican) values. Some have posted disparaging remarks on FR???!!!!

To me there's a tremendous difference between arguing over tax cuts or the size of government and accusing the military of faking combat action. The latter has nothing to do with "conservative values." It simply shows a staggering level of ignorance and disrespect for those in uniform.
