Just for Kabu, the Canadian 'Roo...
I know Wiley is doing his very best to make Kabu feel at home in this strange country, for example by teaching her how to use the snow plough, a skill she has been practising for weeks on end now. But he has also fed her some tall tales, for instance about the snow snake, and the poor lady even...

A Thief Caught in the Act...
Kabu wrote about the pleasure of seeing her first black squirrel recently, so I thought I’d show our Aussie lady one of mine. As luck would have it, I caught one them in the act of raiding the ‘squirrel-proof’ (hahahahaha) bird feeder we acquired last year, and which no bird would touch for a long...

The Cat’s in the Bag...
After many exhausting shifts guarding the Christmas tree, Bubbles thought she’d take a rest! She was also put off by the hordes of visitors that have a nasty habit of invading her domain at this time of year, and decided enough was enough. She remembered a movie she had watched some time ago, where...

That’s why I am so grateful to a friend of mine for sending me the new, clean version, which we can all recite joyfully. Mind you, he did slip up...

Guarding the Christmas Tree...
In one of her posts today, Offy admitted to snooping under the Christmas tree, trying to find out what Santa Claus had delivered there. Now I can fully understand, though cannot condone such behaviour! But knowing a bit about human frailty, much of it from first-hand experience, there are never any...

Yummy Winter Salad of Beets, Fennel, and Apples, with Stilton and Pecans
I thought it was time for a recipe again. I like salads at any time of year, but especially in winter. I made this one recently and liked it. The recipe is actually Bob Blumer’s, he of ‘Surreal Gourmet’ fame. He’s the guy who tootles around in this big toaster and cooks for all kinds of strange...

A Special about Matt Damon, the Sexiest Man Alive...
You don't know Matt Damon? Don't worry, neither did I until earlier today, when I read this piece by Scott Feschuk. And after I had read it, I thought I should let Scott tell you about Matt's plans. So here it is: "The first 100 days are considered crucial for anyone taking office. This is...

Are You a Chatterbot Blogger?
Ah, the vagaries of love! Robert Epstein, a professor at U of Cal, San Diego, and a contributing editor to Scientific American MIND, recently fell in love with a lovely young woman from Russia. She sent him a photo, and they exchanged passionate emails. Here’s one she wrote to him (and remember,...
