As a cat owner and animal lover, I tend to find this pretty disrespectful.
Why did Salvador Dali cross the road?
Clocks.

Yeah, if he loved his pet, he's really not honoring its memory in any way I would consider normal.

Is setting fire to your deceased cat normal?

I remember seeing Roy and Dale talking about this on Carson, must have been late 70s. Dale said she was thinking of having Roy stuffed too.

That museum closed a couple of years ago. Trigger, Bullet and the rest of the contents were all auctioned off.

Ah, a still flyable Consolidated CATalina. A rare find.


It's nice if cats are put to something useful, don't we all agree?




We have new neighbors with a cat named "Liselotte", the (in recent decades not very prevalent) name of my late mother. Chris might have had the reincarnation of JAE as a feline companion, but with me mom has now moved back in!

We've taken too much for granted ... and all the time it had grown ...

How could I not have seen the connection...


I just didn't have the 17k to hand to become a partner...

I recently watched this beastie doing circuits round Duxford one afternoon, purely by chance; a considerably better flyer...
The random mind of a Silver Surfer...
If research was easy, it wouldn't need doing...
Staring at that event horizon is a dirty job, but someone has to do it; something's going to come back out of it one day...

Hey, what a cool way to fool terrorists....build a drone into a dead moose.....

"What's that up there?"
"Nuthin.  Just another moose."

Maybe they'd have to be pretty dumb terrorists.
