... though the red harness does spoil the impression a bit. His own harness
is so tatty that he borrowed Nikki's harness today.

He looks great in that harness, tell him that :-)
And what is it with cats and cars ? It's not typically male, as my Punk, a
female, did that too. It's not typically cat either, one of my ferrets
examines cars too......

Of course I forgot to say that Punk didn't have that name for
nothing........ She was the kind that should have worn leather and spiky
things ;-)

I think dogs do, too.  Probably because they have such fascinating
smells from all the places they've been.  Humans only see the stationary
vehicle, but the amnimals can smell some of their travels, as well.

Nothing wrong with red on a guy, especially in such small amounts as
Frank is wearing it. Looks good against his black fur.

Swedish plates... nope, checked again. They must be Estonian plates,

You remind me of the annual lecture the Dean of Women at my college used
to give to the Freshman girls.  One of her cautions was that we should
never wear red, because it "excited" men!  (So of course, next
day.....)  This was a long, long time ago, but her ideas were a bit
antiquated, even in the late 1940's.

The Dean of Girls at the high school I attended must have gone to the
same school as your Dean of Women.  Never wear red or patent leather
shoes (the shiny shoes might reflect your undergarments).  If you had
to sit on a boy's lap in a crowded car make sure that you had a piece
of paper to place between you.

ROFL!  Those are the funniest things I've ever heard :-)  Yeah, a piece of
paper's going to do so much...and the shoes reflecting the
undies...hilarious!

As I recall she also said to be sure to put a tissue between your lips
if you ever kissed a boy.  She also used to keep her handkerchief in
her bra, and I remember one time that she couldn't find it and her
entire arm disappeared down the front of her dress searching for the
elusive handkerchief.

Tissue between your lips and the boys lips, or between your upper and lower
lip?  I so don't see either scenario being any fun!  I guess that's supposed
to be the point...

Well, when I was reaching puberty, some of my girlfriends were under the
impression you could get pregnant from "French" kissing, but one would
think even  SPINSTER school teacher would know better than that!

She had to be past retirement age when I had her since all 4 of my
aunts had had her when they were in high school (and she preached the
same things in their classes).  I'm more of the opinion that she was
afraid that we would get some horrible disease by kissing a boy
without 'protection'.

No, it doesn't! He's gorgeous, and the red and black look great
together. If I ever take Licky out on a walk, he will also have a
red harness.

This is because when you weren't looking, he was going to pee on it ;-)

Why? Well, Waffles has had a word with him and pointed out that when I'm out
cycling, some of the worst near-misses where motorists overtake too closely,
just happen to be BMWs. Not for nothing, in the cycling community, is BMW said
to actually be "Big Motorised..." and the W is a word which rhymes with
"banker" ;-)

I know a number of elderly gentlemen who would argue this point with

Cute Pix, but I wonder what Nikki thinks of Frank stealing her
harness. Sammy seems to get unpset when one of the others get their
smell on something she considers hers. I keep an old pink beach towel
in the carrier, and Sam frequently naps there. When I took Rocky to
TED I left her towel in there, and when he came home she draggedit out
and rolled all over it trying to get rid of the Rocky/TED smell.

Nikki doesn't seem to mind that Frank uses her harnes, but then Nikki adores
Frank. I think maybe she is quite flattered that her hero will use her
harness.
