Hopitus - 13 Apr 2005 18:11 GMT ROFL! It was a fun game...and the movie looks interesting, to say the least. I turned out to be a Norwegian Elkhound (?) whose photo looks for all the world like the RB Akita I used to own, but a strange color. He loved all the cats, having grown up with them as surrogate parents, and had especial fondness for one.

sriddles@aol.com - 13 Apr 2005 18:31 GMT Neat! I was a Bichon Bolognese. That was a game we used to play at the shelter--figuring out what breed people were....they always said I was a rat terrier. Partly becuase of size, and partly because they said I "hang on to something (an issue) and won't let go.".....I don't think that was a compliment! Thanks for posting. That's a fun site.

You are a Maine Coon! You are larger than life, a gentle giant. You are independent, but very affectionate with your friends and family.

Arthur Shapiro - 14 Apr 2005 23:27 GMT >Do you have naturally curly hair? Maybe they just automatically make >us La Perms if we do... I usually term it "raunchy", but "curly" was the closest fit in the list. I think your assessment is probably correct.
I'm really, really upset - can't finish the taxes for the first time in my life. Something happened in March, 1997, that I don't understand, and it affects the tabulation of a stock that was sold last year. So I've wasted a day of vacation to arrive at a screeching halt. I've just filed for an extension and am sitting here feeling sorry for myself.
At least Thalia is jumping up on the huge file of current and past years' tax records to get affection every few minutes. The others are ignoring me - probably can sense the black cloud hanging over the computer and myself. I'm in charge of the Tuesday and Thursday evening rides for my bicycle club, and let me tell you, we're going to see some *significantly* steep climbs tonight as I try and pound out the frustration of the tax situation. There's going to be PAIN involved.

Arthur Shapiro - 15 Apr 2005 23:46 GMT >A lot of companies that create problems in figuring the basis on their stock >will have explanations and worksheets on their web sites in the shareholder >services section. This company didn't, but gave amazingly quick response to an emailed inquiry and provided a very plausible scenario for what happened. I still won't try to get the taxes filed on time, but at least I understand how to handle this one situation (before moving onward to the next crisis in the return, whatever it might turn out to be.)
With at least 20 file folders stacked up or otherwise positioned throughout the room, it's just a matter of time until one of the cats causes a, uh, catastrophe. It will be either Calico, because she comes running into the room and jumps at high speed, or Watermelon Man, whose 19 pound bulk can send things routinely flying. Maybe I should get some big rubber bands that fit around file folders!

Also known as an alley cat or a mutt. You aren't given to high-falutin' ways, but you're accessible and popular. People love you for who you are, not what you are.

Diane
The Ocicat is both playful and devoted. She may spring into action on a whim at any moment, or languidly pass an hour away in the lap of a loved one. The Ocicat is happiest with friends and struggles at being solitary for any period of time. Her exotic, no-fuss coat is a breeze to maintain, and looking her best comes easily. Inquisitive by nature, she gets into trouble from time to time. But any trouble is soon forgotten because she is off on a new adventure in a flash!
