Bigfoot Found – Real or Hoax
Well, I have been out of the loop a bit on my cryptozoology circles. I did not even hear that a Bigfoot body was found until my sister told me about it yesterday. I tend to stay away from watching news and reading papers. Most of what I hear is from online news sources and…

Teleporter Not Working
If the film The Fly wasn’t proof enough here is another good example why a teleporter will never work. (Besides that whole scanning-you-in-one-place-rebuilding-you-in-another-then-vaporizing-the-original-you thing.) more cat pictures

Haunted Birder Feeder v1
I had this pretty nice bird feeder (it is a Colonial Bird Feeder from Pet Zone), but the one window was broken out so the bird feed would not stay in the feeder. I thought, “what do you do with a broken window”. You board it up. So I set to work. First, I repaired…

News Hounds From Hell
My little blog has gotten some national attention. Last week a writer from The Christian Science Monitor contacted me about my post on dogs in the office and why it is not always a benefit. He later called and interviewed me. His article is in the paper this week and is also posted on line.…

Pig in Boots
This little piggy won’t be going to market. At least that’s what the farmer says. Little Cinders, a saddleback pig, has a phobia. She’s afraid of dirt (mysophobia). Go figure. A pig that can’t play in the mud. The fine folks at the Northern England farm fit her with a pair of little rubber boots…

Unicorn Found
Okay so it is not an actual fantastical beasty. Not the typical mythical horse with a single horn on its head. Rather it is a deer born with one horn in the center of its head was found in Italy. A genetic defect, but cool anyway. Probably how the whole thing got started in the…

The Litter Box Wars: Littermaid vs SmartScoop
Littermaid vs SmartScoop – it is the self-scooping litter box wars I’m talking about not a review of the expensive cat boxes. (But if you want my opinion the SmartScoop wins the review hands down so lets hope they win the legal battle too.) For a quick run down OurPets, a company that makes great…

Schrodinger’s Cat is Dead or Is It
Okay, my limited physics classes did not teach me about Schrodinger’s Cat, or if it did I did not retain the information. Oddly enough two different TV shows this evening seemed to think the average Joe would know just who Schrodinger was and what was so god awful important about his cat. In quantum mechanics…

I Want It Wednesday: Pleo the Robotic Dino
New feature for me. While I could fill this blog with a daily I want it post I think I will stick to just Wednesdays (mostly). I cannot help it if I am overcome with the feeling of ‘I has to have this’ therefore making me post on other days to, but I will try…

Cats and Learned Behavior
Not all cats are scardey cats. At least not when they start out. Our big boy Boris never was overly afraid of things like trucks driving by or even the vacuum cleaner running. He would just lie there looking around like he was saying, ‘what the heck?’ Yet he never got up to run and…
