  1. How Old!?

    by , 08-20-2015 at 09:42 AM (Memories of the 28th Century)
    I just posted the piece about personality and mental illness screeners, but within the last few days I have taken a few tests that were supposed to tell how old I really am. Some of those are for amusement, while others take themselves very seriously.

    A few days ago there was an ad somewhere asking if they could guess my age using five questions. That was fine with me. The result was that I am between ten and fifteen years old. Later that day I noticed that it was the anniversary ...

  2. My ADD Kitty

    Ajani (my new little kitty) is starting to settle in now and he is not as shy any more, which means I have kitten pictures now. I do think that he is a bit ADD which is kind of cute. When playing with him, he gets very hyped up and than cannot make up his mind as to what he wants to do, he gets overwhelmed trying to play with five different things at once. I like to use old shoelaces to play with my cats, and so Ajani will chase that for a while and then run off to do something else, and then start ...

  3. Just What I Need: More Books

    I went to a book giveaway today and got a bunch of new books for free. One the great things about free books is that it does inspire me more to get books of which sound interesting to me, but are still a bit outside of what I normally read, so I might not commit to buying, but if they are free I figure, what the heck no harm in picking it up.

    by , 08-18-2015 at 03:45 PM (Memories of the 28th Century)
    One day recently I read an article in The Economist (link below) on how the U.S.A. loses companies because of the horrible tax policies, and I read Comments by one of the people running for President who advocated that same problems that the article had pointed out. The article in the Economist summed up the problem quite nicely. Corporate income taxes in the U.S. are set up so that it’s cheaper and easier to move one’s corporation to another country.

    There are two major problems ...
  5. Mini Cat Jaws

    I recently got a new little kitten (I haven't had a chance to get photos yet, he is still a bit shy). On Saturday there was a special Free Adoption Event, and after my two oldest cats passed away I have been wanting to get another cat, and I wanted to be able to provide a home for a kitty in need. So I met this adorable little kitty, a gray tabby cat who is a bit of a runt (I tend to like the runts, they are usually always kind of outcasts and loners but have great personalities). His name is Ajani ...
