Stumble It!
When 24/7 cable TV weather hysterics struck, Baby was calm beside Goomp's scratch post yesterday afternoon.
Anyone who's been paying attention knows it's all about reminding people who haven't been paying attention that it's "all Bush's fault."
Goomp's Mr. Perkins -- AKA Purrky -- carries no brief for all-Jon-Benet-all-the-time and its multifarious variants, let alone Bush Lied, People Died.™
We're prone to following Papa Ratzi's admonition [via Miss Kelly] to make room for "prayer and contemplation." Speaking during his Sunday address at his summer residence at Castel Gandolfo, the pope quoted from the writings of St. Bernard of Chiaravalle, who lived in the 11th and 12th centuries:
"We have to guard ourselves, the saint observed, from the dangers of excessive activity, regardless of the office one holds, because too many concerns can often lead to hardness of heart," the pope said.
"This warning is valid for every type of job, even those concerned with the government of the church."
Baby (left) and Tiny guard themselves from "the dangers of excessive activity" as they go for the jugular of their suppers yesterday evening down Goomp's.
To assure your own avoidance of the dangers of excessive activity, be sure to check out this week's totally awesome 127th Carnival of the Cats at Catymology.
We could all learn a lesson from your cats!

Goomp's beautiful cat reminds me of my lovely, oh-so-elegant (at times) bluepoint baby Timmy who will be 2 years old on 9/25.

I really enjoyed this post Mrs. Miller...
I have run into some Conservatives who are even engaged in demeaning this President.
It really is misguided.
I remain deeply thankful for this Man from Texas.
Especially knowing, Al and John, stayed far away from the White House.
Would some Conservatives really enjoy seeing Kyoto, International Courts, Tax Increases, appeasing Terrorists, become US Federal Policy?
The silly MSM, like Democrat Partisans, are overplaying their hands again, with baseless Katrina Hysteria, making politics out of a Hurricane Tragedy, while we fight a GWOT.
Very sad, but making the desire to rebuke their self serving madness this Nov., even greater...
