Phoney but funny as all Hell!

Lewis The Cat , originally uploaded by davidbdr . I just recently found out about poor Lewis. I guess he has attacked some people in Connecticut but there is some contention as to whether it was provoked not. He is currently under "house arrest" awaiting his owner's trial on reckless endangerment. Some woman who is suing the owner wants Lewis euthanized. I think this is outrageous. Don't these people have better things to do than go to court ? I can see going after medical costs or whatever but I could never demand that someone's pet be put down. I'm sure whatever happened to the woman suing is no joke like most of the news have been playing the story. My mom had her legs attacked by a cat I used to have. She would panic at sudden noises and my mom made the mistake of stomping her feet when her damn little rat-dog started yelping. This set the cat off and she went straight for my mom's legs. She got clawed up badly. The cat stopped doing this wh...

YouTube - Kupkake The Cat Playing

My kitten Magik chasing the cursor on my monitor. Just a video test really.

Big Foot , originally uploaded by davidbdr . I am a total Flickr addict. I just have been having a blast posting photos and getting comments from others. It's been a great way to make contact with people from all over the world and get a glimpse into their worlds through photography. This photo of my cat Kupkake turned out well. My digital camera finally did what I wanted.

This is my latest non-People's Weekly World Cartoon. Republican or Democrat--it doesn't matter. Both are controlled by Industry and Corporatism.

Below is a cartoon video by the Brazilian cartoonist, Latuff . He has put together a couple of others on his YouTube site .

BBC NEWS | England | Manchester | Singer Freddie dies in hospital Wow. Freddie of Freddie And The Dreamers was 69 years old. That's almost too hard to believe. I had a Dreamers record when I was a kid. I can't remember how I came to have it. I loved "Do The Freddie." I'm sure my parents were sick of hearing it. So long Freddie.

Magik , originally uploaded by davidbdr . Another kitten was abandoned in the field behind our apartment. She is obviously the sister of the black kitten, Hokus Pokus. These kittens are the funniest, most lovable kitties I've ever known. I didn't really want more than one cat in our apartment but what are you going to do? I don't know what kind of people can just toss these helpless babies out into a cold, wet field. We found her, crying, huddled down into an indentation about the size of her body. Neither of these kittens tried to run so they were surely handled a lot.

Held Still , originally uploaded by davidbdr . This is our new kitten Hokus Pokus. Someone abandoned him in our parking lot. He was hiding up in the engine compartment of a car. Just minutes after we rescued him, the car left. That could have been awful if we hadn't heard his cries. This is the best image of him so far. He is almost impossible to photograph since he won't sit still for one moment.

I did this one with colored pencil but wasn't real happy with it. I put a Photoshop filter on to liven it up some. I'll probably do it again so I can get it right.
