Lastone, I'd forgotten about Harry. I'm glad you reminded me. He must have been a great friend.

Fan, and Lastone, I can't imagine what it's like to lose your furry friend. We had a dog when I was growing up, but he was never really "mine." He was a little terrier mix, and lived to over fifteen. We had to have him put down because he was eaten up with cancer, was blind and deaf, and his life just wasn't worth living, for him, any more. The vet told my mom, "he's been a really good dog for a lot of years. Don't make him suffer just because you can't say goodbye." But like I said, he wasn't ever "mine." He was more my brother's and my mom's. My brother held him while the vet gave him the shot.

But now, as an adult, my wife and I are human slaves to three wonderful cats. Chloe, the oldest, is just now approaching two years old. We adopted her from the humane society. She's white, with a few brown tabby spots, and obviously has some oriental breed in her. She has these beautiful high cheekbones, and a long snout.

Our second is Coco, a black and white male. He came from the humane society as well. He's a year and a half old now, and still very much a kitten. His nickname is Captain Chaos, because he can create havoc just when you think everyone is settling down. After we got him, our vet discovered he has a heart murmur. Luckily, the humane society didn't find it, or he'd have been euthanized. That would have been such a shame. He's a wonderful boy.

Our third is just now almost a year old. Her name is Clarice, though her nickname is Widget. She's a little calico, also an adoption from the humane society. She's Coco's playmate, and that thrills Chloe no end, because Chloe gets a little purturbed with Coco jumping on her.

Dang, Lastone, looks like you were posting here right when I was, too. Don't you miss the Comm Panel?

Glad to have been of some comfort, old friend. BTW, did you get the short video I emailed you?

If anybody's interested I've posted pictures of Molly here. There are four alltogether; three at the top and one a little bit down the line.
