This is what happens when you leave your snowman cookie at work past Christmas. After staring at his melting smiling face for the past three days, I finally put Frosty out of his misery. Yes, I ate it and he tasted soooo delicious! *burp*

I received some horrible news over the Christmas weekend. During feeding time, one of the cats in a colony on campus was attacked by unleashed and unaccompanied dogs. Unfortunately, the person feeding the cats had to witness the horrible attack on Cricket and managed to get him to a vet. Poor Cricket had a broken jaw, brain damage and worse -- and thus had to be euthanized. We have a leash law and yet people still let their dogs roam the neighborhood wild and loose. This time a cat, next time might be a child. A life taken is a life gone no matter if the life had four legs or two.

We'll miss you, Cricket. You would never hurt a fly, let alone kill a bird. You were abandoned several years ago and found a colony of cats that accepted you. I'll always remember you as the funny cat who scooped the wet food out of the can with his paw and reminded me of a raccoon. Rest in peace, sweet Cricket.

A Minigami has been hanging out at the library for the past week.  Actually, contractors are working on the spalling on the roof overhang.  (New word for the day:  spalling)

Daily pigeon air show in Liliha.  Gorgeous birds in flight and they fly surprisingly close to the building without crashing into it.

For some reason this song has been playing in my head all day. I wonder why...??? Blame it on the waning full moon. :oP

Ultravox - The Voice

There's Shamrock Shakes to be had in my state for a limited time!  Still the same minty taste and it still turns your tongue green!  I'm a happy camper.  :o)

Thirty years ago today, this song was introduced to the world...

...and Duran Duran is still rocking the planet.  *swoon*  :o)

Funny video! Me likey! LOL!
