The Story Game

We haven't played The Story Game since last October! Wow.

Mom says since we are having to share her blog now, we can play The Story Game once in a while too... assuming anycats are interested in writing more great stories every now and then!

The beginning of the story is here.

Moving Mancat Monday

Mom has decided to move back to her dot com web site and back to WordPress. ::sigh::


Here's a screen shot of today's post on the new digs.

Mom says she just can't continue to manage 2 blogs anymore. Her business has really grown and it keeps her very busy during the day now, which doesn't leave as much time for visiting and commenting.

We hope you will come visit us at our new home on the interwebs when it's our turn to blog!

Soakin’ up Sunshines on Sunday

We’re going to be doing a lot of this today!

Mom and our Nana and Grampy are on pins and needles waiting to hear that Mom’s niece has had the new baby Grandniece! Baby Aria was due on the 17th and nobuddy in the family is especially pleased that baby Aria has decided to arrive late!

It’s very exciting!

We hope everybuddy has a nice an Sunshiney Sunday!

Six Second Saturday

We want to thank all of you who took the time to go over and comment on Moms niece’s blog post/college journalism class assignment. You Rock! If you didn’t happen to stop by yesterday and would like to help a hard working college student make an A on her assignment, take a look at yesterday’s post for the link!

Follow us on Twitter

Suddenly, we are hearing more birdies than usual! hahaha!

Have a super Saturday, everybuddy!

Finally Friday! with Shrek in the Swamp!

Yay! It’s time to celebrate the weekend!

This week we have a little Shrek in the Swamp!

Everybuddy, get up and DANCE!

Gandalf’s tail in the zone, baby!

Happy Finally Friday, everybuddy!

PS. Please see the post below! Mom and Mom's niece need your help!

We need your help!

Mom's niece needs 30+ comments on a blog post for an actual grade in college! We think the more comments she gets, the better her grade!

Holly writes: "Basically, the "assignment" was to write a blog entry & try to get as many comments on it as possible...We have to get 30+ comments to do well on this "assignment"... Everybody go comment on Kumar joining the White House, and I will bake you all a funfetti cake during finals week."

Thanks to all who go to comment! Mom is also going to bake Holly some cookies for cramming for Finals, 'cause cookies always help, right?

Mighty Hunter: Camouflage Edition

The Mighty Hunter always uses all his stealth skills and well as his own natural camouflage to his best advantage.

You can not see me, Evil Squirrel...


But I can see you!

Happy Hunting, everybuddy!

PS. Some of you may have seen this post in your readers yesterday. Mom scheduled the post for Thursday, but Blogger wanted to publish it right away. ::sigh::

Also in yesterday’s comments some of you wondered about mobile blogging. Here is Blogger’s help page link and a screen shot. It’s easy to blog from your cell phone, either by email or text messaging!

Mobile blogging... We has dat.

ThunderBoomies are very askeery

Tattletale Tuesday

Ash says he like to do his thinking from his chair. As you can see, we like the table!

Since we are doing a Tattletale Tuesday, we thought we should do a tattletale on ourselves, too. Yesterday some of you wondered if we ever spilled Mom’s wine… Yes, but only once, and it was akshully our Nana’s fault. Let us explain.

As you know, we cats are all very gifted athletes. Not only do we have Super Power hearing and vision, we also have exceptional leaping skills, even onto very small or very crowded areas. Well, our Nana has many chotchkies on the table where Nana and Grampy watch TV – a small lamp, a blood pressure cuff, notebook and paper, the day’s paper, Grampy’s crossword puzzle, a flashlight, the TV remote, a calendar, Mom and Nana’s wine glass, Grampy’s soda can… all kinds of krap!

There is barely room for one Gray Boy, let alone two, but somehow we always manage to squeeze in!

Well, this one time our Nana thought we were going to tip over the wine and she grabbed for the glass… and knocked it over. Nana still blames us. Her argument is that if we weren’t so close to the glass she wouldn’t have gotten nervous about us knocking it over. We think you can see the truth of it.

And now for a little Show and Tell. Well, mostly tell. Yesterday lots of you asked how we did that animated gif. Mom uses several different photo editors, and yesterday she used a neat little photo editor named Photoscape. It does all sorts of wonderful things! But best of all, it does them all for Free. Mom loves Free. Free is very, very good. Mom also did the reflection in today's photo with Photoscape. We think you should go download it right now and start playing with it. Well... right after you comment! hahaha!

Have a careFree photo-editing day!

Tail Catchin’ 101 - as seen by Mom’s iPhone

Happy Mancat Monday, everybuddy!

Soakin’ up Sunshines on Sunday

Today we would like to show you something magical. We both have gray furs with a very unusual ability. Depending upon the light, our furs are sometimes brownish and match the bark on our Pecan trees and our dirt. Other times our furs are a cool gray with hues of blue. In artificial light our furs are sometimes a very warm gray with red undertones. But Gandalf’s furs have something that even Grayson’s furs do not have! Sometimes, Gandalf’s furs look Violet! Can you see the violet tones in a few of these photos?

Mom says Gandalf is a magical cat!

We hope everybuddy is taking it easy and soaking up lots of sunshines today! And we certainly hope the Easter Bunny brought you a lovely basket full of wonderful toys and treats. Mom emailed the Easter Bunny and told him to take us off his list this year because we did not play with any of the toys he brought last year. This does not seem at all fair to us. After all, we eated all of the Temptations!

We wish you all a very Hoppy, Happy Easter!

Six Second Saturday

Finally Friday!

Are you ready for Friday, everybuddy?

This week seems to really need a Friday about now, don’t ya think?!

Mom asked me if I was ready for Friday and you can see my reaction. Mom can’t decide if I was astonished by the question or bored to tears or even something else.

You be the judge!

OK, it’s time to kick off the weekend! Everybuddy DANCE!

♫ Monday morning feels so bad,

Everybody seems to nag me

Coming Tuesday I feel better,

Even my old man looks good,

Wednesday just don't go,

Thursday goes too slow,

I've got Friday on my mind! ♫

Snoozeling

This one’s for you, Fred!

Rats. The Red Sox lost last night.

But so did the Yankees, so it’s not all bad. (Sorry, Jeter.)

Grayson is trying to “Sleep it Off”... because everycat knows that a good nap cures all things!

WW: Cornbread crumbs need nomming

Music Mancat Monday - Starry, Starry Night

♫ Starry, starry night.
Paint your palette blue and grey,
Look out on a summer's day,
With eyes that know the darkness in my soul.
Shadows on the hills,
Sketch the trees and the daffodils,
Catch the breeze and the winter chills,
In colors on the snowy linen land. ♫

We do not think that Vincent will mind that we used ImageChef's Photo Picasso for today's Music Mancat Monday, do you?

Sunday Mewzings

Finally Friday!

I thought this was a party!

Get those paws a-tappin'!

It's time to kick off the weekend! Let's Dance!

♫ Everybuddy, cut loose, Foot Loose! ♫
