He had an awful last two art shows.  Mudslides wiped out several canopies at
the Cleveland show.  Luckily not his but he still lost about $15,000 in
lower-hanging artwork due to mud not to mention all the carpeting he had in
the canopy.  Some of the paintings can be cleaned (canvas is pretty
forgiving).  But he stretches his own on hand-built frames and the wood is
warped.

And his ex-girlfriend ran over his dog.  No, not on purpose, but why was she
even over there?  He had a friend pet sitting.  Then he got a phone call,
she backed over his dog and killed it.  Oh god!

On the drive home (800 miles) he started having chest pains and cold sweats.
He pulled over and took a couple of aspirin which eased things up.  Yes,
he's under a cardiologist's care and yes, he carries nitroglycerine caps
with him.

He's already had two heart attacks, the last one resulted in a quintuple
bypass.  I'm terribly worried about him.  He's home now but I need to
convince him to go back to the doctor.  Maybe his meds need adjusting or
something.

Anyway, purrs please!  I cannot lose him after finding him all these years
later!

OB Cats:  His big fat cat is named Kidder :)  Kidder sort of rivals Lori's
Samazon except Kidder is a peanut-butter shade.  I think Kidder weighs close
to 20 lbs.
