Monday, October 15th, 2007Good Monday!
Lighter Garden Fare:
Just wanted to introduce some of my research assistants on the great Irish Spring experiment. Note to self: Check into Irish Spring pay-for-post opps.
These are some tough cats. They share space with three Rotties. Good hunters. This is four of the five, missed the little black and white. […]
The Great Social Media Experiment Pt. 2
Wednesday, October 10th, 2007Relevancy anyone?
While we started the blog as an outreach for our clients, it has evolved into both a personal expression as well as an unexplained mystery.
It’s sexy time in the garden. Not only is the UAE landing here, but also visitors from Iran, Pakistan, and Morocco trolling for sexy Dubai. Sorry, wrong number.
I’m still getting […]
Sir William Wallace
Friday, August 31st, 2007One of our clients shared the story of Sir William Wallace, or just “Wallace” to the many friends and family that knew him. Even the three cats he shared a home with are grieving.
Wallace was a well-heeled English Mastiff, large and imposing but gentle in spirit. He was the soccer and rugby team mascot, unofficial […]
Irish Spring- And I Like It Too! Pt. 2
Wednesday, August 29th, 2007Our summer experiment with Irish Spring as a non-toxic cat repellent has been somewhat successful. Probably more so, had I been shredding and spreading bar soap on a regular basis.
For the Colgate Palmolive R & D people, please develop a shredded blend of the Original Scent bar soap in colors to match popular styles of […]
The Power of Purple
Wednesday, August 15th, 2007Busy busy in the garden. We’re digging out some old unfinished posts and working them over.
Tim Totten wrote an interesting post on color. We study color here in the garden as well. Last time we checked Blue was still America’s favorite hue.
Regarding funeral service, the color is changing. From darkness to light.
In the […]

Wednesday, August 8th, 2007Three Beautiful Things:
Fresh Blueberries
Croquet on the lawn
Firing up the Grill
Two not so beautiful things:
Shaving the dog’s butt
Applying ointment
Garden Update:
Irish Spring Cat repellent experiment: Only original scent bar soap will do. Liquid version ineffective. Today’s brilliant idea: Colgate Palmolive should process Irish Spring in a shredded format and sell as a non-toxic cat repellent for […]
Oscar the Accu-Kitty
Wednesday, July 25th, 2007Thanks to Chatter for introducing us to Oscar the Death Kitty.
PROVIDENCE, Rhode Island (AP) — Oscar the cat seems to have an uncanny knack for predicting when nursing home patients are going to die, by curling up next to them during their final hours.
His accuracy, observed in 25 cases, has led the staff to call […]
Where do White Squirrels Go When They Die?
Saturday, July 21st, 2007To Wisconsin of course! From Roadside America:
In Sam Sanfillippo’s funeral home basement in Wisconsin, we’ve noticed a large number of albino squirrels among perky dead animal dioramas. They ride motorcycles and jeeps, shoot hoops, party in bars. There are more here than in all the wildlife museums and taxidermy collections we have visited.
Sam tells […]
Like the Son He Never Had
Monday, July 2nd, 2007Florida passed a piece of legislation that allows humans to be buried with their pets. Previously, funeral homes were prohibited from handling animal remains and ashes of humans and animals could not be co-mingled.
At the Best Friends Animal Hospital at Gateway, office manager, Rainy Hoy, said about half of their clients take home their pet’s […]
Irish Spring- And I Like It Too!
Tuesday, June 26th, 2007Randomness from the garden.
Construction crews have been busy with improvements in the garden now for about a month. Yesterday, while completing the final phase of the project, the crew accidentally ripped out my phone line. No DSL. No Internets. No bidnez.
Hot phone guy in tool belt arrived at 5:45 PM and […]
